Mismong chair na ng National Youth Commission ang maka-ilang ulit na nagsabi (at napagsabihan) na si Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. daw ang nag-akda ng panukala na maitatag ang naturang komisyon. Pero, kulang sa konteksto ang pahayag na iyan. HINDI si Marcos Jr. ang pangunahing nag-akda ng panukala na iyan.
National Youth Commission (NYC) Chairman Ronald Cardema slammed activist groups and red-baited them anew in a video posted on Facebook on August 1.
National Youth Commission chair Ronald Cardema rehashed an already debunked claim that President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. was the principal author of the law that created the National Youth Commission.
Ronald Cardema blasted Commission on Elections (Comelec) commissioner Rowena Guanzon for playing victim insisting instead that the party-list is the real victim whose nomination is allegedly being held hostage by Guanzon in exchange of political favors.
“Kontra Daya stresses the importance of public pressure at this time when Cardema and his ilk try to make a mockery of the already bastardized party-list system and to reduce the Comelec into an extension of Malacañan Palace to which the Duterte Youth blindly throws its support.”
