THE Kapihan sa Manila Hotel, held at the Champagne Salon, featured a discussion on the issue of hazing, hosted by The Manila Hotel President and former senator Joey Lina Jr. alongside Manila Bulletin Publisher Sonny Coloma.
The forum included guests Col. Margareth Francel Padilla of the Armed Forces of the Philippines; Imelda Livioco, executive director of Crusade Against Violence; and Dexter Dormitorio, brother of hazing victim Darwin Dormitorio. The panel discussed whether recent court convictions of Philippine Military Academy cadets in the hazing and murder case of Darwin Dormitorio could bring an end to these recurring incidents.
Presiding Judge Maria Ligaya Itliong-Rivera found former cadets Shalimar Imperial Jr. and Felix Lumbag Jr. guilty of murder while former cadet Julius Tadena guilty of violation of Republic Act 11053, the updated Anti-Hazing Law, for Dormitorio's death.Lina, who authored the original Anti-Hazing Law, RA 8049 in 1995, emphasized the need to break the 'conspiracy of silence' surrounding hazing.
