“Ang babae hindi sinasaktan. This goes for everybody, for everyone. But don't resort to our resources. Kasi kayo na nga mismo supposed to be na nagpo-protect sa ating mga kababayan, especially iyong mga kababaihan. And ikaw pa ang magkakawa ng ganito. So, doble ang tama po sa atin,” he said.

(Women should not be harmed. This goes for everybody, for everyone. But don't resort to our resources. Because you are supposed to be protecting our countrymen, especially your women. And you are the one who will do this. So, its impact on us is double.)

“We do not condone it. We do not tolerate this kind of aggression. So if there is, stop it while there is still time. to change,” he added. —Joviland Rita/LDF, GMA News
