"We appeal to media and other sectors to refrain from generalizing that members of the Filipino-Chinese community as peddlers of illegal drugs and inadvertently besmirching our community’s reputation," FFCCCI president Henry Lim Bon Liong said in a statement on Saturday, November 16.reiterated data that showed most of the supply of shabu coming into the Philippines come from China and that many of those arrested in relation to big drug raids were Chinese or Filipino-Chinese.

"Pati iyong mga nahuhuli na mga nag-o-operate within the Philippines, karamihan Chinese nationals or Filipino-Chinese nationals. So it is something that we should look into,” Robredo said on November 14, as she expressed openness to meeting with Chinese embassy officials in relation to her new job.should not affect the rest of the community" composed mostly of law abiding citizens.Let us be more careful in making public statements that may unnecessarily create rancor, conflicts, misunderstanding and promote unfair stereotypes," said Liong, without referring to any specific personality or group.
