Dignified Silence of the Philippine Supreme Court
« on: August 28, 2012, 11:10:34 AM »
BY MARK MERUEÑAS, GMA NEWS

Amid the public attention following her historic appointment as the country's first female top judge, Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno declined media interviews, saying the Supreme Court (SC) must bring back its "golden days of dignified silence."
 
In her first official statement since ascending to the highest judicial post, Sereno acknowledged the media's "important role as a natural ally" for transparency.

However, she still declined media interviews to "minimize susceptibility to misinterpretation" of the high court's actions.

That policy is a marked difference from the relative accessibility of her predecessor. During his more than two-year stint as chief justice, Renato Corona occasionally gave interviews to the media, especially soon after his controversial appointment in 2010 by former President Gloria Arroyo and in the weeks leading up to his conviction and ouster last May by the Senate impeachment court. Corona had even attacked other justices in media interviews.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
