Dear Mr. Baldwin,
I just wanted to let you know that I too share the sentiments of Bim Barbieto just as, I would suspect, a great majority of us Filipinos. While it is highly unlikely that you would ever come to read this, I would still like to express my deepest and sincerest apologies for the behavior of senator Ramon Revilla Jr. It is my opinion that his actions are nothing more than an attempt to get some attention from the media. Sadly, local mainstream media continue to give him exactly what he wants.
Allow me to assure you however, that there are a lot of Filipinos who, like myself, find senator Revilla’s antics disgusting.
In comparisson, you have proven yourself the better man. While there really was no need for it, you still went ahead and apologized for a joke that anyone with the least bit of intelligence would not have taken offense with in the first place. That sir, is truly admirable. Thank you.
However, like I said, it was absolutely uncalled for. And because our governement continues to shame us by childishly refusing to accept your apology, it would only be fitting for you to take it back. Just please know this Mr. Baldwin, we are not a country of whiny crybabies. The truth is, a lot of us have a rather healthy sense of humor. It’s the only way we can even stomach senator Revilla and the likes of him in the circus that we call our government.
Again, in behalf of every other Filipino who feel the same way I do, I am sorry.
Sincerely,
Peter “The Mordo” Juan
Do we all make open letters?

I’m thinking of writing Senator Revilla an open letter as well.
