In the Philippines, all people are equal. It’s just that some people are more equal than others. This was proven again today when three security guards at the Banyan Street gate of the posh residential enclave of Dasmariñas k cineplex nicosia Village in Makati City were reportedly arrested and detained by officers of the Makati Police on orders of Makati Mayor Junjun Binay, son of Philippine Vice President and former Makati City mayor Jejomar Binay after he and his entourage riding in a four-car convoy were denied access. Binay’s sister Senator Nancy Binay was also a passenger in one of the vehicles, according to the Inquirer.net report. k cineplex nicosia
Closed-circuit television cameras operated by North Forbes Park and Dasmariñas Village had, according to the same report, recorded the whole incident. The Banyan gate of Dasmariñas village is closed to motorists after 10 p.m. every night, a rule that is observed by “high-profile residents, such as senators, congressmen, [and] mayors and diplomats” according k cineplex nicosia to an Inquirer source. But then the mayor’s motorcade was expecting access “close to midnight”…
The video clip showed that the mayor, k cineplex nicosia who was in a polo shirt, stepped out of the lead vehicle after two security guards manning the Banyan Road gate on McKinley Road did not lift the iron barrier k cineplex nicosia to allow the convoy to pass.
Pantangco declined to elaborate on the incident.
Filipino celebrities and politicians are renowned for their arrogance k cineplex nicosia and their sense of being above most Philippine laws and any rules that apply within specific areas. Indeed, big credentials matter a lot in a non-thinking society like the Philippines — which is why attitudes exhibited by Mayor Binay in this incident are common and difficult if not impossible to eradicate.
President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino III himself attempted to exemplify his administration’s upholding of a policy k cineplex nicosia of no-special-treatment for anyone regardless of rank and social status presumably under the premise that all people are equal in the eyes of the law. At the beginning of his term, he emphasized elimination of the use of wang wangs (police sirens) by politicians and celebrities to muscle their way through Manila’s notoriously gridlocked streets even in non-emergency situations. Indeed, President BS Aquino even refused the use of personal motorcades when traveling by land to and from his office at the time, to demonstrate how he planned to live up to that policy.
Alas, midway through the term of what was supposed to be the government of the straight-and-narrow, little has been achieved as far as ingraining this egalitarian and rule-by-law ethic envisioned by the architects of the Second Aquino Administration.

Kayong k cineplex nicosia mga abusadong politiko mgbsgo na kyo..u r no different fr. Napoles…
Let us all keep on posting and re posting all these politicians abuses until election time so that the electorate will be all reminded of all their pathetic actions. It is a human nature that we tend to easily forget.It is entirely all up to us to end all these harassment.

Our history is repeating itself. The full potential is there: little man with an umbrella over his head (Imelda), k cineplex nicosia followed by numerous trigger happy minions (any trapo ever), accompanied by idiot sibling (any political dynasty) becomes ridiculously indignant when caught breaking the rules. Only in this country do the lawmakers hold themselves above the laws they are sworn to uphold. Only in this country are honest, hardwor
