Philippine Ambassador to the United States Willy C. Gaa has said in a statement hs is impressed by the unity displayed by Filipino Americans against a perceived slur by ABC! Ambassador Gaa said, I am impressed by the speed and effectiveness in which the community has come together on this issue.”
He added that the disparaging remarks in the episode were an offense against the dignity and abilities of our people and our community, especially those who worked so hard to establish solid reputations in the field of medicine and healthcare. We have demonstrated the potential of the Filipino American community to influence events. I hope that we can further build on this display of solidarity and collective effort and harness it in support of our common interests in issues such as equity for Filipino veterans or better trading and business opportunities. Let us remain united and vigilant against all unfounded aspersions against the Filipino.”
