Presidential son and Pampanga Rep. Juan Miguel “Mikey” Arroyo lashed out at Facebook users on September 29 for a “malicious attack [on] his personality,” reports the Daily Tribune.
In a text message, Arroyo did not deny that he was out shopping for alcoholic drinks on Saturday while typhoon Ondoy was ravaging Manila. He said that it was impossible for him to stop by Rustan’s Katipunan in Quezon City when the street was impassable because of the flood. “My picture posted at Facebook with a caption saying I was busy shopping for wine at the height of Typhoon Ondoy is another malicious attack at my personality. It is so depressing,” he said.
“On record, I was in Malacañang at that time with all my family trying to mobilize rescue and relief operations for people of Metro Manila and for my constituents in my district in Pampanga,” Arroyo said.
The Tribune goes on to say that “instead of resorting to grandstanding gimmickry at his expense,” according to Arroyo, “the bloggers should also busy themselves helping their countrymen who are still reeling from the effects of the worst natural calamity the country had experienced in decades.”
“I hope that Facebook and other like mediums be regulated so they can never be subjected to abuse by some scrupulous people. Facebook is easily susceptible to abuses as people can easily hide their identities,” he stressed.
A photo of a person alleged to be Arroyo buying liquor during the height of typhoon Ondoy was posted on websites across the Internet on Sept. 28, but has since been taken down in most sites.

I ‘m not happy with the quality of our public officials.
They’re all just a bunch of crybabies.
I can’t believe how pathetic they all are, I just can ‘t.
Perhaps I won’ t vote in the next election. Losers.

It’s a losers’ game.
This country’s politicians are the world’s worst.
They’ re about as bad as Zimbabwe ’s
Apparently, this whole thing ain’t true.
But why hasn’t he denied it?
Bottom line is (1) you’re a major dumb ass, (2) you’re a corrupt pig and (3) if it weren’t for “bloggers” posting all sorts of information on sites such as facebook, deployment of relief goods, trucks, ambulances and everything else in between would’ve taken much longer. A lot were actually saved by these sites - it was even on the news.
I don’t know what kind of alcohol you’re on, man but damn I suggest you stop drinking it. It’s messing up your brain.
kanya kanyang opinion lang yan.. ang Pikon talo!…
respect na lang sa Freedom of speech.. BATO BATO SA LANGIT TAMAAN WAG MAGALIT… nyaha
FYI Mikey,you pig, netizens have raised more than a million pesos already through paypal. Aside from that, people coordinate relief actions through FB and other networking sites.
Why be depressed or ashamed or wanting to regulate Facebook IF YOU ARE NOT GUILTY or WALA KANG GNAGAWANG MASAMA?
You are saying its an attack on your personality, ang tanong may masisira pa ba cla? when its already tainted with a lot of controversies? A friend of mine blurted out “Haller! May personality ba cya?”
Delicadeza nalang sana, you are a PUBLIC Servant and SHOULD ACT like one. Ang galing kc eh, may problema na nga ang bansa nakuha pang uminom… Great!
Kung sincere ang pagtulong, at totoo kang nglilingkod sa bayan, hindi mo uunahin ang pagbili ng alak over s pagtulong sa mga nangangailangan…
Oh well, Politicians will always be Politicians. Tsk.
