no such thing as data monopoly. There are instances that there are data na hidden by some
agencies, not deliberately hidden but that’s not their priority.
Atty. Rubin: aside from legal route, what is the assistance that have been successful in this
context? The experience of women that refuse to access these mechanisms...and yung red
tagging, it’s happening in most of these areas? It’s happening in the regions
Prof. Rallonza: I wouldn’t call it red tagging, I would call it being suspected of rebellion, etc,
para meron kang aanchoran. I think in this issue, very important when we look at protocols.
It was sa airport, sa Laguindingan, pumasok lahat ng messages ko. In the absence of
protocols you have to demand for protocols. Because it cannot be the case that there are no
protocols when you are handling these cases.
In terms of any best practice, actually ang masasabi ko anong ginagawa sa mga kababaihan
it’s not legal option, it doesn’t have to be legal. Office ng OPAPPRU, one of the things they
do is livelihood. Assistance for rebel returnees, educational, livelihood, psychosocial support,
inasmuch as CHR is monitoring institutional compliance, there should be institutional
collaboration in some degree.
Maricel Aguilar: Just to remind CHR that you have the mandate for inquiry, wag nyo yang
kakalimutan. There’s always the tendency to go to the legal route. So you have inquiry could
be done. Maximize your mandate to do inquiry, you already do the reproductive health
[inquiry]. You can maximize your regional offices too. Gamitin nyo yun as mechanism. In the
UN for example, the ICC hindi umaandar if there are no complaints. Imaximize nyo yung
capacities and mandate nyo for inquiry.
Mel: In connection sa disclosure, I used to work with sexually abused children. [There is]
direct and indirect disclosure, mostly indirect ang disclosure ng survivors and victims.
Marami talagang factors like stigma, fear of retaliation, hindi rin ganun kadali magkwento ng
abuse.
