Rodolfo ‘Jun’ Lozada: Pinoy Jedi Knight

rodolfo 'jun' lozadaJun Lozada has suddenly hit stardom.

Many consider him a hero; the lone jedi knight sworn to tell the truth amidst pressure and threats to his life. I admire the man for coming out to finish what Neri and JDVIII started. He is a better man than Atty. Sergio Apostol who knows nothing than to bully an obviously scared man. It is not easy to pluck the courage and speak out the truth. But it is even harder to continue on telling the truth when no one is there to believe you. Or rather, if there is but a few willing to believe you.

In this country’s political scene, the definition of truth is (1) relative to whichever party uses it. For example, Lozada’s testimony is an outright lie for the administration because (a) it damages the image of the President, (b) it implicates the President’s husband, (c) it gives the government an overall nasty publicity, and (d) because Jun Lozada’s backers (Lacson primarily) are from the opposition. It is clear, that from the administration’s view, Lozada is being used by the opposition to destabilize her reign; a mere plot to dethrown her. For the administration people, I think it is safe to conclude that the truth for them means “to not go against PGMA.”
