The UN’s theatrical circus, under the guise of press freedom assessments, continues unabated, and Khan’s role in this macabre show is one of wasted time and money
Irene Khan, the UN’s self-proclaimed savior of press freedom, has graced the Philippines with her fleeting presence.
A 10-day expedition, masked as an evaluation of human rights mechanisms, raises questions about the sanity of UN allocations.
Khan, the supposed priestess of press freedom, will conduct her superficial assessment in a mere 10 days. How convenient!
Can a foreigner genuinely comprehend the intricacies of Philippine Constitutional Law and the zealous Supreme Court protection of press freedom in such a short span?
The standards guiding Khan’s evaluation remain a mystery.
Will she defy the decisions of the Supreme Court, or will her visit be nothing more than an arbitrary exercise of UN bureaucracy?
A foreigner’s subjective perspective on a Constitutional right leaves much to be desired.
The question of objectivity lingers like a bad smell.
Khan’s rendezvous with biased critics, including former Senator Leila de Lima, showcases a cherry-picked narrative.
How can Khan ascertain the truth from a limited pool of sources, especially when dealing with someone like de Lima, known for her one-sided diatribes?
This entire escapade reeks of a colossal waste.
Who foots the bill for Khan’s lavish accommodations and luxury travel?
Suspicions linger that Khan, a UN puppet, enjoys a luxurious vacation at the expense of the host country.
A five-star hotel and chauffeured rides — the perks of being a UN diplomat on a supposed fact-finding mission.
While Khan enjoys her taxpayer-funded holiday, genuine issues of press freedom elsewhere remain neglected.
Countries like Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Singapore, and Malaysia, where press freedom is a myth, escape UN scrutiny.
The UN’s priorities are as twisted as a psychological thriller’s plot.
The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the unending violence in Gaza mock the UN’s claim of relevance.
What is the UN doing? Nothing substantial.
Instead of denouncing actual perpetrators like Hamas, they point fingers at Israel.
The UN’s ineptitude is glaring, leaving one to wonder if it’s just a global talking shop.
We won’t grace Khan’s desk or be acknowledged in her seemingly predetermined report.
The UN’s theatrical circus, under the guise of press freedom assessments, continues unabated, and Khan’s role in this macabre show is one of wasted time and money.
