Dear All,
Blessings of Easter joy, peace, and hope!
Several people had asked me, mostly by SMS, about a psychological report |
supposedly wrote and/or signed in 1996 that is circulating first in a blog
(politicalamateur.wordpress.com/2010/ 04/08/noynoys-medical-record/) and is
now through regular email and other social networks such as facebook.
Ihave just read the said report and would like to put it on record that itis
definitely not my work. | am a teacher, educator, and priest both by training
and vocation. | am in no way competent to make any psychological
‘assessments and, much less, write such a report.
Furthermore, | wish to point out the following:
1, Iwas never connected with the Psychology Department of the Ateneo de
Manila as the report claims. The date of the report, 1996, would indicate,
as people in the Ateneo know, that my assignment then was principal of
the Ateneo de Manila High School.
2. The signature that was placed on the report is the type of signature |
would use fo sign thousands of letters to Ateneo de Mani alumni from
2000-2005 to greet them on their birthdays. | personally signed each letter,
since I did add a personal note fo alumni! knew personally. As such, this
signature would be very accessible to someone who would think of
forging my signature by attaching it to a document and circulating it
electronically.
3. More formal letters and reports (on matters on which | have competence
on) I would normally sign using a somewhat different signature, more
formal than the one that appears on this forged report.
Simply put, the said report is bogus. Why my name and signature was attached
toit, | do not know, but the act is enough to make me say that whoever is
behind it is not being honest and might have other motives. | leave it to people
now fo make that judgment.
If the person who posted it in the blog did so in good faith and genuine concer
and will be kind enough to let me know where he got the said letter or article, |
will be most grateful. This will allow me to correct the mistake of a report
attributed to me that I did not write and have no competence to write.
‘hope this is a good warning to people not to readily believe anonymous
messages.
| pray we will continue to be disceming and | pray we will rise above self-centred
interests and instead work hard so that this coming elections will truly reflect the
deepest dreams and hopes of our people.
Let us pray for one another and our country.
Sincerely yours,
Sa
