Link of the blog... I think... http://gmaseven.blogspot.com/2010/08/open-letter-from-bang-lu-min-survivor.html I don't remember any Bang Lu Min, in the hostage event. I am more concerned about the aftermath of the hostage event, rather than the hostage event itself. Sounds cruel but usually the aftereffects of a crisis is much more devastating than the crisis itself... in my opinion anyway. Also, the media was stupid for showing the capturing of the perpetrator's brother live on air. There is this thing called media block and common sense, but those obviously skipped their mind causing panic to Mendoza. In a rightful point of view. It was the media's fault not the MPD. But of course, due to stereotypical views and the media having power to bend information, that point of view was left out, causing us to be blacklisted in various countries and to be ridiculed by our country's lack of security measures against terrorist. Just think about this... Who will not be angry and agitated if you see some people harassing your family member/s on air for everyone to see? Even it they're harassing them for good intension and national purpose... In my opinion... it will make everyone panicky, lose their rationality and sanity.
