21,000+ sign petition opposing Roque’s asylum request
A petition led by Filipino-Dutch writer Joel Vega has gained over 21,000 signatures to block former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque’s asylum request in the Netherlands. The petition, accompanied by a formal letter to the Dutch Immigration and Naturalization Services, argues against granting Roque asylum. As the case unfolds, Dutch authorities have yet to make a decision on the application, which follows an arrest warrant issued against Roque in the Philippines.
