His advocacy has been called “diabolical and demonic” by SMNI broadcast hosts Jeffrey Celiz and Lorraine Badoy who are facing multiple civil and criminal charges due to their red-tagging on air. The report identified several instances of discrimination and abuse against Muslims, including degrading remarks online, on television, and from Senator Robin Padilla, himself a Muslim convert.
According to the Supreme Court, 70% of detention facilities under the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology are overcrowded, with an average congestion rate of 386%. American embassy officers are also working with the Philippines' national penal system to produce a “peace education manual” emphasizing “religious tolerance concepts” and best practices to help prison authorities recognize and address religious extremism among convicted prisoners.Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc.
