STATEMENT OF SEN. NANCY BINAY
On the comments of Sen. Alan Cayetano regarding the Dasmarinas Village incident

Nalulungkot ako sa sinabi ni Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano.

Sana man lang ay inalam n'yo ang totoong nangyari. Nandito lang naman ako at madaling kausapin.

Dapat siguro inaalam ang buong istorya bago nag-komento.

As a colleague, he could have talked to me first so he would know the truth.

I kept my peace at the height of the dispute between Makati and Taguig over Fort Bonifacio so as not to raise tensions.

I kept quiet when employees of Taguig were seen on CCTV entering McKinley road in Makati acting in an aggressive manner.

I did this to avoid being accused of politicking or riding on an issue that involves my city and my family.

I am not one who comments on every issue just to get publicity and to advance any political plans.

At hindi ko ugaling manira ng ibang tao para lang malagay sa media.

Ayaw na naming palakihin pa ang lumang isyu. Nangyari ito tatlong linggo na ang nakakaraan. All parties involved in the incident have already moved on.

Sa amin, tapos na yan, pero mukhang may mga gustong buhayin ang isyu.

Just the same, I look forward to celebrating the season of love and understanding with my family.
