Lozada is a definite whistleblower perhaps by ethical dilemma. His past is far from immaculate, but I do admire the man for standing up despite the lack of evidence. Lozada is risking his life, his family, his career for what? Which is an indication that some unethical financial dealings had occured notwithstanding deficiency in evidences. Regarding saving face, the international community is already aware of the Philippine government's corruption. This scandal is not surprising. The government must perform a 360 degree turnaround to defeat corruption so our beloved country could finally emerge from poverty for the sake of the people. The only way this possible is to eliminate the current politicians to be replaced by a new type of people free of corruption. However, this is an impossible plan to execute. The Philippines is a poor country and its people can easily be bought to vote for incompetent candidates with financial means dreaming for government positions in order to accumulate further wealth and power. When will corruption ever end? I haven’t been following the case closely, but I do agree about having strong evidences before taking actions.
