Roderick Valbuena Assaulted but did not do a Nasser Pangandaman
Unlike the brawling Nasser Pangandaman clan, Roderick Valbuena a brawler he is not and rightly so because he is a public official, a councilor in the fifth district of Manila.
When confronted by drunken foreign Korean nationals blocking their vehicular path Roderick Valbuena advised the drunken Koreans Sim Gudae, 29, and Kim Joo Min, 37 to go home and let them through. I wonder what the tough guy brawling public officials would have done in the same situation. No, I dare not speculate that they will run them over but who knows what they will do but we know what happens when they cavort in the green.
The incident happened in Malate the councilor’s turf and yet instead of beating the crap out of the drunken duo when they refused to budge he opted to alight from his vehicle and warned them that he is a city councilor and he can have them arrested. Instead of listening to the councilor the drunken duo retorted that they know of a police general and will report the councilor to the Korean Embassy while hurling invectives and slapped the councilor silly. Ok maybe not silly but he was slapped according to what he reported in his complaint.
I wonder if they mentioned the brawling Pangandamans if the councilor would have backed off, or maybe not? If the reports were accurate the Pangandamans need to take a cue from Roderick Valbuena because that is how public officials conduct themselves in public and even ordinary civilized people tries reason instead of physical violence.
The drunken duo apologized but Roderick Valbuena says he will pursue the criminal complaint, serves them right and it was reported they are still in custody. Let us just hope they are not harmed while in custody as this will negate the mature conduct of a public official and hopefully something the likes of the Pangandamans can learn a thing or two.

These Koreans are turning out to be major pests.
I had a similar incident though the Koreans involved were not inebriated and this happened in broad daylight.
My colleagues and I were eating late lunch at Chowking in Intramuros when two Koreans walked in. After ordering food, they proceeded to a cordoned off section of the restaurant to seat themselves there. However, one of the bus boys politely told the Koreans that the section was closed and was only used for parties.
One of the Koreans began shouting angrily for being barred entry into the area. The shouting continued and not content with raising his voice, the Korean began hurling racial slurs against Filipinos in general.
He said, "You Filipinos are all crazy."
At that point, my friends and I asked the manager to call the police. Four heavily armed police men came within just 10 minutes and accosted the Korean, telling him to behave himself OR ELSE.
The Korean quickly changed his demeanor.
Hahahahah!
Praises to the quick acting Intramuros police.
That is really unacceptable!

Paul/Marco,
I did not really dig this up so it is possible that there is another "side" to this but this is really better than the Pangandaman mauling of the father and son...... and then some blogers might complain that I am blogging on issues that is inconsequential when there are more pressing issues, lol.
I just love to dwell on the uncivilized brawling of public officials and yet manage to get those bloggers on their "side" with the madaya errr media who I hope are not of the ATM kind.
