Kaban ni D_BystandeR: PAGSERBISYO SA KATAWHAN, TEMPLAHAN UG MAAYONG PAMATASAN???
It looks like it's the
trend nowadays in the government service. Government employees having direct
transactions with the public are becoming more brazenly disrespectful and
outrageously abusive! I have just finished reading the latest issue of Via Times
Newsmagazine, which is widely circulated in Chicago and Midwest Area, and I
learned that our Philippine Consulate
Office in Chicago is also inhabited by employees with extremely bad
manners in attending to the needs of our fellow countrymen asking help for some vital information. There needs
something to be done to protect the
taxpayers interest, and it's urgently needed to effectively address this
crippling malady in public service!
Footnote: The above comment came about as an
offshoot of a news item featured in Philstar about a BI supervisor found to
have harshly mistreated a lady-teacher who was transacting business at the BI
Office who inquired something about her husband's papers if she (the wife) can
make a follow-up without a written authorization because her husband was
leaving and the document needed was scheduled for release at a later date. But
the Immigration supervisor blurted out without any kind of decency and shouted at
the top of his voice, "SHUT-UP!" to her surprise. When she tried to tell
the supervisor he did not need to raise his voice when answering, he shut back
telling her nobody can stop him to do the way he wants it. And it went viral in
the Facebook registering 2,600 comments condemning the supervisor's rough treatment. And Fred Mison,
the BI Chief, promised to dig deeper into the case to let the Supervisor
explain his side. Abigael Valte, the Malacanang spokeswoman, hinted it will not
just end in scolding.
