Presidential Communications Operation Office Assistant Secretary Margaux “Mocha” Uson, defended how blogger and fellow President Rodrigo Duterte supporter Sass Sasot confronted BBC journalist Jonathan Head during the  Association of Southeast Asian Nations Summit on Monday.

Sasot confronted the journalist after BBC interviewed Jover Laurio, a blogger of the opposition for a story.



“BBC contacted Jover Laurio right? When are you gonna contact me? See? This is the disparity here. Why suddenly BBC is contacting Jover Laurio?” she said.

Uson defended Sasot's way of confronting the BBC journalist which spread through a viral video.

"Sa mga nag cocomment na arrogant daw si For the Motherland - Sass Rogando Sasot sa pakikipag usap sa BBC halatang hindi nila alam ang background at hindi napanuod ang buong video. Ayon nga po kay Sass, Hindi po kasi tayo sanay sa paguusap sa mga puti especially BRITON."

She said that Sasot took her masters in the Hague, where she also participated in debates.



"Alam niya paano makipag usap sa mga puti. Kung lalamya lamya ka they will not respect you. Sabi nga po niya normal ang ganyan sa kanila. Nabigla lang tayo dahil Pinoy tayo. Pag malamya ka sa pakikipagusap sa mga puti Briton o European yari ka sa argument. Kakayan kayanin ka nila. Wala kang panalo and they will not listen to you," she said.

Uson added that the acts of Sasot only appeared over the top to us, as we Filipinos are not used to that kind of approach.

"Sanay kasi tayo sa bait baitan pag nakikipag usap. Iba po sa kanila. At sanay si Sass sa ganyan. Dahil taga dun siya at nag masters pa po siya doon. Kaya bago niyo husgahan si Sass better know the whole context and watch the whole video," she said.
