VILLAR ON CAMPBELL CASE

We are awed at the dedication of Julia Campbell to serve the Filipinos especially our young students who were under her tutelage. She had integrated herself well in our culture and was well-loved by Filipino families she had associated with. Julia embraced a life of true service to our people -- she was our friend.

What is important is to show to the international community that our government does not take this incident lightly and our justice system is at work to eventually give justice to Julia Campbell.

I am confident that this unfortunate but isolated incident will not in any way affect or strain the relations between our country and the United States.
