CLARIFICATION / FYI
Just this afternoon, I received a call (on my personal number) from someone who introduced himself as Brando. At first, I thought he was one of our education partners. He raised a concern involving one of my colleagues and eventually dragged me into the matter.
My colleague is not known for the things he was claiming, and based on what I know, I did not find his allegations credible. When he did not get the response or outcome he wanted, the conversation turned into harassment. He repeatedly cursed at me and used offensive words during the call and threatened to publicly discredit me on social media, even involving my wife and child in his threats.
Unfortunately, the threats did not stop there. He (under the account of Francisco Garcia) eventually posted statements against me on my personal Facebook account and on our business page, ECHOlicious Delight.
For the sake of clarity and to set the record straight, wala po kaming utang o inutangan sa kahit kanino man. We have nothing to hide.
We respect everyone and are always willing to address legitimate concerns through proper and respectful communication. However, we will not allow false accusations, harassment, threats, or intimidation to misrepresent the truth or affect the dignity and reputation of our family.
I am posting this not to engage in a public argument, but simply to clarify our side and prevent misinformation from being taken as fact.
Hindi po lahat ng ipinopost sa social media ay totoo. We encourage everyone to verify information and hear both sides before believing, commenting on, or sharing accusations.
We will continue to remain calm, respectful, and professional. We simply ask for the same respect in return.
