菲律賓駐港領事館領事Val Simon Roque昨接受記者訪問,詳談菲律賓當局在兩年前人質事件中,對港人要求道歉、賠償等要求作回應。
倖存者指歪曲事實
記者向Val Simon Roque問及死者家屬和倖存者要求菲律賓當局道歉問題,Roque回應稱,家屬無明確要求由菲國那個人道歉,其後又以朋友打架作比喻,指菲律賓人被打後,兩三天便能忘記「慘事」做回朋友,呼籲港人學習菲律賓人懂得原諒的態度,「請你站在菲律賓的立場考慮,你還想我們怎麼樣?」
另外,本報於四日前向該領事館旅遊部香港及澳門市場代表David Leung查詢賠償問題時,對方竟表示菲政府已向死者家屬賠償,並曾刊登於報章,「數目都不少!」記者再三追問下,David以電郵發給記者一篇《頭條日報》於去年八月二十二日報道,但報道提及的六十五萬元捐款是來自菲國志願團體。記者要求對方解釋,「既然官方不多作解釋,keep it that way(就由它這樣吧)!」暗示團體捐款來自菲政府。
