00:00Council to former Iloilo Mayor Jed Mabilog expressed relief and satisfaction over the
00:05president's response to his client's missive plea care of Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin.
00:11Former Iloilo City Mayor Jed Mabilog's request for a full pardon on the criminal and administrative
00:16charges filed against him by the former administration yielded a grant of clemency instead on his
00:22administrative cases.
00:24The president saw it fit to extend this presidential privilege to Mabilog after a review of his
00:29track record as local chief executive that hailed Iloilo City as one of the most livable
00:35cities during his term and the PEDEA citation of his anti-narcotics campaign that flies
00:41in the face of the Duterte administration's contrived charges of him being a protector
00:46of pushers and distributors.
00:49Still Mabilog has to face the standing criminal charges filed against him.
01:24... and will seek the truth and not the political or personal interest of some.
