A woman of courage worthy of admiration! Impressive and such an inspiring speech! Mabuhay ka Maria Ressa❤️
I find it intriguing that people from other countries appreciate maria more than her birthplace, the philippines. There seems to be a disparity on the level of enlightenment of people relevant to their location. I feel shame that i live on the place which do not appreciate her courage and intellect. Thanks maria for being an inspiration.
Because evil is on the right ear of the majority thanks to facebook who did nothing.
I can also feel the shame you are talking about.
What do you mean? She is my inspiration
This woman is always prepared, professional, and sound. Go MARIA GO!
such an informative and intellectual speech from our nobel peace prize, maria ressa..
I luv hearing you Madam Maria Ressa. MABUHAY the courageous Filipina ever.
Am a Filipino! So so proud of your bravery of fighting the good fight of guarding the truth! Congratulations dear Maria Ressa, that speech was so powerful tho delivered to journalism grads n 2019 is still very relevant n our present times. God bless always, Ms. Ressa, thanks for empowering the new grads and making them dream of a better lives n future.
So Inspirational and a mentor on how to sell your integrity for a fat pay check! Brava!
The Nobel Peace Committee is correct by awarding you the most prestigious award to be given to a journalist. God bless you!
Maria Ressa, you have been an inspiration. Keep safe.
Very proud of her , Philippine pride …
Di naman pilipino yan indonisia yan
@@marilyngatdula7916 I checked her biography and it says; born October 2nd 1963 Manila Philippines. CEO of Rappler.
This is what happens when you search for the truth, speak the truth and sticks with the truth. The world notices. Congatulations to those truth seekers and speakers.
"Dream of a better future.
Then go, and make it happen. Go." 🥺❤️
Bravo! Maria Ressa! Well deserved Nobel Peace Prize! Keep up the good work, we will be behind you!
OPINION: Maria's problems do not make up the Philippine story
Out of professional courtesy, I will not go into the situation in other news outlets. But right here in this paper, if you still see my friend, kumpare, and fellow columnist Leo Lastimosa being able to continue criticizing President Rodrigo Duterte almost daily, then it is fair to say that he is living and breathing proof that the press is not under assault in the Philippines as claimed by Maria Ressa.
And in The Philippine STAR, sister paper of The FREEMAN, flagship of the Star Media Group and number one paper in the country, if you can still see Satur Ocampo, Federico Pascual, Jarius Bondoc, and others being able to openly criticize Duterte to a much wider global audience, then they are living and breathing proof as well that the press is not under assault in the Philippines, contrary to the same claims of Maria Ressa.
Then aside from The FREEMAN and The Philippine STAR, there are hundreds of other papers, radio and TV stations and online news portals, as well as millions on social media that continue to go about their business without any intervention from government. But Maria Ressa never reported these to give context to her stories. She dwelt only on her own experience which she brought upon her own self by doing things deemed illegal under Philippine laws.
Admittedly, there had to be extrajudicial killings in Duterte's crackdown on illegal drugs. But the vast majority fell in legitimate police operations. Most of the victims were armed and fought back and thus got killed. But did Maria Ressa even once put context to her stories by citing the unassailable fact that millions of loose firearms are in the hands of criminals? Never. Because doing so would have crushed her ugly stories about the Philippines.
Democracy is alive in the Philippines. The justice system still works. Maria Ressa has her lawyers and has not been deprived her day in court. What extrajudicial cases there may have been, they are in the courts as well. The courts are free, without any interference from Duterte. To claim otherwise is to open up to the same claim Leni Robredo's father, who was appointed judge by Ferdinand Marcos himself, the father.
In my immediately preceding column last Monday, there were two threads of thought that ran through it. One was that the Nobel Committee may have been negligent and careless in appreciating the Maria Ressa story, leading to its controversial decision to give her the Nobel Peace Prize. The other was that the United States, by whatever means, may have had a hand in the award to demonize and punish Duterte for his pivot to China.
Nothing seems impossible for the US, whose clandestine cloak-and-dagger operations can work independently or in tandem with its giant legal and above-ground apparatus to achieve its one consuming aim of promoting and protecting its interests. From propping up to removing leaders (Marcos as prime example), assassinations, dropping atomic bombs on civilian populations, influencing elections (Magsaysay), name it, the US can do it.
Compared to the above, the US can and most certainly would influence the grant of any award or prize if its interests so require, the Nobel included. And it is perfectly possible for Maria Ressa to be played thus by America if it wanted to, the same way it could have used the International Criminal Court as another flank in its multi-pronged attack on the sovereign leader of the Philippines, the price Duterte must pay for playing footsie with China.
How ironic that for incessantly attacking a duly-elected leader, Maria Ressa gets rewarded with a Peace Prize. And how unfair that for interviewing Bongbong Marcos, Toni Gonzaga would be called all sorts of names and chased almost out of social media. And yet some people just cannot tell the difference by likening Maria Ressa's Nobel Prize to Hidilyn Diaz's Olympic Gold. What an insult to the honest, decent and God-fearing Hidilyn.
The first time I heard you, I knew you are an inspiration. Your bravery more than makes up for your size. Bless you Maria
THAT.. was the BEST articulation of, the state of, and the challenges/opportunities faced by Journalism today. Brilliant.
Brilliant
Maraming salamat sa iyong pagmamahal sa ating bansang Pilipinas. Another Pilipino who uphold truth, principled, kindhearted, a God- given soul. God loves you.
Inspirational! There's hope for a better world. Make people see the truth and justice for all.
Proud Pinoy here...living and educating Thai people here in the land of smile Thailand...mabuhay ka NOBEL PRIZE MARIA RESSA
Mabuhay ka rin po kuya! Thank you for teaching others as well, for sure you're doing an amazing job in Thailand! :))
Ms Maria Ressa “”Huwaran “” sa braveness, truth, and
The courage of telling the
Truth.
Such a POWERFUL address!🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
A woman of conviction,courage,integrity,. a journalist awardee one of a kind person with dignity.Sa ibang bansa kinikilala siya sa husay ,balanseng ,at makatotohanan pamamahayag .Kinaiinisan na mga abusadong na ka pwesto sa gobyerno pero sa toto lang para sa akin ang pakay niya ay i check kung toto at ipahayag ito.na may ibedensya.
Excellent speech from an exemplary lady journalist and Nobel peace laureate and person of grand courage and integrity. You are a jewel of our country, Maria Ressa.
I challenged all this journalists to dig the truth in the Philippines. Why the speaker received a lot of hate messages, harassed and arrested?
Journalists today write their stories in hotel room based on hearsay.
Oh I see, you're one of those haters. Before you challenge everyone here to dig the truth, how about you dig deeper first. Your mind seems too shallow.
@@Freon914 I only hate individuals who spread lies and fabricate stories against my country.
@@Freon914 learn how to argue properly. You didn't prove him wrong with your statement. You only offered a flimsy personal attack.

Very impressive speech indeed, a profile of courage.
Congrats Maria Ressa. Sa muli ay maipagmamalaki ko na ako'y isang Pilipino, nakakalungkot lang na marami pa sa atin ang kapos at pilit na pinipikit ang mga mata, karamiha'y nakikisakay lang, at ang iba nama'y alam nila pero gagamitin lang ang sitwasyon para maprotektahan ang mga pansariling interest. Kulang pa ang katulad ni Maria Ressa kailangan natin ng katulad niya sa ating bansa, nang sa gayun kahit sinong tiwaling politiko ay mangangamba dahil maraming nang magsisiwalat at pupuna, katulad ngayong panahon marami sa mga media ay kung hindi nababayaran ay kaalyado ng pamahalaan at ang iba naman ay nag media-mediahan lang gamit ang social media platform.

I believe Marissa Ressa’s accomplishments fit into this. Since March 1901, it has been awarded annually (with some exceptions) to those who have "done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses".

And in The Philippine STAR, sister paper of The FREEMAN, flagship of the Star Media Group and number one paper in the country, if you can still see Satur Ocampo, Federico Pascual, Jarius Bondoc, and others being able to openly criticize Duterte to a much wider global audience, then they are living and breathing proof as well that the press is not under assault in the Philippines, contrary to the same claims of Maria Ressa.
Then aside from The FREEMAN and The Philippine STAR, there are hundreds of other papers, radio and TV stations and online news portals, as well as millions on social media that continue to go about their business without any intervention from government. But Maria Ressa never reported these to give context to her stories. She dwelt only on her own experience which she brought upon her own self by doing things deemed illegal under Philippine laws.
Admittedly, there had to be extrajudicial killings in Duterte's crackdown on illegal drugs. But the vast majority fell in legitimate police operations. Most of the victims were armed and fought back and thus got killed. But did Maria Ressa even once put context to her stories by citing the unassailable fact that millions of loose firearms are in the hands of criminals? Never. Because doing so would have crushed her ugly stories about the Philippines.
Democracy is alive in the Philippines. The justice system still works. Maria Ressa has her lawyers and has not been deprived her day in court. What extrajudicial cases there may have been, they are in the courts as well. The courts are free, without any interference from Duterte. To claim otherwise is to open up to the same claim Leni Robredo's father, who was appointed judge by Ferdinand Marcos himself, the father.
In my immediately preceding column last Monday, there were two threads of thought that ran through it. One was that the Nobel Committee may have been negligent and careless in appreciating the Maria Ressa story, leading to its controversial decision to give her the Nobel Peace Prize. The other was that the United States, by whatever means, may have had a hand in the award to demonize and punish Duterte for his pivot to China.
Nothing seems impossible for the US, whose clandestine cloak-and-dagger operations can work independently or in tandem with its giant legal and above-ground apparatus to achieve its one consuming aim of promoting and protecting its interests. From propping up to removing leaders (Marcos as prime example), assassinations, dropping atomic bombs on civilian populations, influencing elections (Magsaysay), name it, the US can do it.
Compared to the above, the US can and most certainly would influence the grant of any award or prize if its interests so require, the Nobel included. And it is perfectly possible for Maria Ressa to be played thus by America if it wanted to, the same way it could have used the International Criminal Court as another flank in its multi-pronged attack on the sovereign leader of the Philippines, the price Duterte must pay for playing footsie with China.
How ironic that for incessantly attacking a duly-elected leader, Maria Ressa gets rewarded with a Peace Prize. And how unfair that for interviewing Bongbong Marcos, Toni Gonzaga would be called all sorts of names and chased almost out of social media. And yet some people just cannot tell the difference by likening Maria Ressa's Nobel Prize to Hidilyn Diaz's Olympic Gold. What an insult to the honest, decent and God-fearing Hidilyn.
BULL!

Spitsssss!

“Sleep well tonight. Dream of a better future. Then go and make it happen…go”.
Saludos.....
Wow
Laban
Maria Ressa has been consistent in her message. To uphold truth, defend freedom of expression, and hold the line. Also, she is wearing pink here. She must have known or foretold that in late 2021, it will become the color of the opposition. Congrats on your accolades, Maria Ressa, including no less than the Nobel Peace Prize for 2021. They are all well-deserved.
Deserving
Some people are just TOO GULLIBLE that they will believe anything you say to them as long as you say it with emotions and in a convincing manner. No need to examine the other side.
Remember that in a court of law, no matter how guilty someone is, he is always given a chance to state his side of the story, a chance to defend himself. They dont just listen to one side of the story and have their verdict based on that one side.
I would like to thank these "people" for giving an award to our "very own" Maria Resa as she is a paragon of "good" and "fair" "JOURNALISM" in our country, the Philippines.
Believe me, everytime she would make a report, or public statement, she would carefully "examine" both sides of the story so that she "wouldnt" make a biased statement and everything would be in a fair and balanced manner for both sides. She was "never" taken over by emotions in any interviews with international media about our country's administration. She is very "profesional", "decent" and "humble" she "doesnt" spread false news to the world. Everything she does, she does to show the world that Filiponos, especially our Administration, are kindhearted people.
She portrayed to the world how peaceful our country is, and that the Philippines is such a safe country. In every interview with international media, she HAS never, I repeat "NEVER" have, and never will, demonize the Filipinos and the beloved president of the country as well as the police as an evil force. She never did that. Why? Because her love for her country is just beyond great.
I would also like to thank the ones that awarded her for being fair in your award giving. You showed the world how unbiased and fair you are by first hearing both sides of the stories, news, journalism about the Philippines that our respected Maria Resa have covered before giving your award. Kudos guys.
Again, Thank You! Maria Resa for giving honor, pride, and especially RESPECT, to all the Filipinos. Now the world will surely respect Filipinos and not see them as trash.
This is what it takes to be a brave and great journalist. We all wish you luck! just luck! I wouldnt specify if its good or bad, just to show that I am not biased. You deserve this award. After all, the people who gave this award to you were also respected people professionals, and unbiased.
You deserve this, and EVERYTHING That is coming your way. You deserve them all. Again, I wouldnt specify if its good or bad, because you know im not biased. Bless.
❤
You make the Phl proud
💗💗💗
Democracy is fragile and she is fighting for it and a better world through the youth. Bravo!
We want the women the next President of the Phillippines.. Brave and fight democracy like the president of the Taiwan.....
We need Iron Lady like margarit thatcher former prime minister of England to be the next president.
Congratulations Maria!
He that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:
Proverbs 24:24
Congrats… we need you!

And then two years after , she would win the Nobel Peace Prize. How cool is that???!

@@JB-xm8qi Your long response is acknowledged and respected. 🙂
She graduated from UP nd Princeton University..meaning
She is really INTELIIGENT and courageous to tell the TRUTH..it is so sad that sometimes people are AFRAID to know the truth but TRUTH always prevails over lies..
MABUHAY..MARIA
You are GREAT..
Mabuhay po kayo ms.maria ressa, god bless po🙏👏🏆❤️
Wait... look closely at the lady at the back 4:29 what exactly was that for?
pLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH ABOUT THE PERSON AND JOURNALISTIC PRACTICE OF RESSA!
Hypocrisies to the max of this so-called Nobel Peace winner. While I was living here in the US, my impression of the Philippines is that it remained the truest democratic country in Asia, even more democratic than the USA, otherwise she should have remained in jail with her grieve civil cases that were there even before Duterte. It wont happen here if those cases were here in the USA. She remained the freest libelous journalist. A private businessman won a libel case against her publications plus her case against Securities Exchange Commission. She had not fought for freedom for the filipinos but for her own business survival and sense of entitlement that as if she is the voice for press freedom which is actually abundant during Duterte- not a single journalist jailed and killed under him, I believe.
Thank you Mam.Ressa ,Congratulations.
No dictator can stop a truth from being told.
Truth? it died in Ressa's dirty lips.
I was starstrucked when I first saw her. And from then on, she instantly became my favorite. The way she speaks, oh, I just love it.
Congratulations ms Ressa.
Sa lahat ng nglait kay Maria Ressa ano ngaun laki sampal sa inyo Nobel Peace Prize
Awesome po. Congrats. Keep on. God bless ❤️
We are very proud of you mam ressa
Congratulations, Ressa and thank you for what you have done so far for the country. May we expect more from you along similar lines. I will continue praying for your health and candor. May God bless you more!
Ang hirap talaga sa mga Pinoy ayaw paniwalaan si Maria mabuti pang ibang bansa naniwala sa kanya
Hirap nga po talaga dito sa Pilipinas. Lahat nagbubulagbulagan. They don't want to see the entirety of the picture. They crop and discard the things that they don't want to acknowledge, the things that negate what is just, right, and moral.
Mas gusto pa nilang maniwala sa mga sabi ng idolo nila, na halos sambahin na nila. Nakakaawa po talaga ang Pilipinas, hindi magkaisa tungo sa kaayusan at kaunlaran sa pamamagitan ng pagiging mulat sa katotohanan.
She's a brave woman. She's continually standing up against an abusive tyrant. She deserves that special recognition she got.
ang mahirap naniniwala kayo sa ibang bansa na di alam ang nangyayari sa atin.
@@Running.guy7 Sa Rappler? It's based on the country, not abroad. Journalists get the news first hand from the source usually. And they report nothing but the truth, the truth which the government doesn't like the public knowing or being aware of. The government has been suppressing people left and right. That alone speak volumes about how corrupt and abusive the government is.
oo naman. kasi overdose na pilipinas ng human rights. puro nalang human rights hahahah With Maria Ressa, Nobel prize has certainly lost its prestige
@@SuperstudentAcademy Whether you like it or not.. Nobel Prize is still a one in a billion award that you will never achieve.
Lagi pong mangingibabaw ang katotohanan maam mabuhay po kayo patuloy lang po na lumaban.
