A reporter of The News Today went to the Boarding House Commission in order to report a reader’s complaint against a certain boarding house located in La Paz as well as get the BHC’s possible action on the matter. When the female staff asked the reporter where she is connected and when the latter answered, “The News Today” the woman smirked and pasuplada nga nagsabat, “Ah, indi lang.”

Ano ini, indi na kita pwede maka-report sa BHC sang mga complaints nga ga-abot sa aton? Or is there discrimination going on against The News Today because this paper is very vocal about alleged corruptions in the City Hall?

Calling Ben Palma, head of the BHC, paki-disiplina lang sang imo tinawo. Your staff should show courtesy to everybody kay inyo ina obligasyon bilang trabahador sang publikong Ilonggo.*
