I don't think it is valid to criticize the President over his smiley face as he express sympathy over the tragic hostage drama.
Smiley face is a natural default face of President Aquino. He had that natural smiley face when his father was assassinated, when his mother died, even when he was ambushed and in pain when hit by bullets when he was young. That smiley face is his natural default face.
For us, wide eyes people, our eyes become slanted when we smile. But we can't say that all Chinese have smiling eyes, because having a slanted is your default eyes.

The HK people were instigated to get upset over little things such as the default smiley face of our President and even to the point of twisting facts by launching a propaganda that the tragedy is an attack against the Chinese race. It is sad that some HK nationals bite the bait of "some groups" who wants to provoke conflict in the relationship between China and Philippines.

If it will appease you if we will accept your statement that we have no basic manners, then we will. We have learned our lesson on maximum tolerance when dealing with angry people.

Being a Victim will not give you a license to insult our country, especially our President. Remember to preserve the symbiotic relationship of our countries. We need the Hongkong people. The Hongkong people need Filipinos.

If the new picture of PNoy will not satisfy you, then I guess he will just have to change it with an avatar.

PNoy Job: Assign a Chief of Philippine National Police. Job done= YES.
Chief PNP Job: Assign a Situation Ground Commander. Job done=YES.
Ground Commander Job: Determine the Right Personnel, Right Equipment, Right Plan, Replica Training, Crowd... Management, Hostage Negotiator. Job done = FAILED
RESULT: Operatives failed because the Ground Commander did not do a good job.
The Command Responsibility for the mistakes stops at the Ground Commander.

If you insist to make a big deal about that smiling face, I will be forced to launch a propaganda that HK people discriminate natural default faces of human beings. If you can discriminate the face, you can discriminate the color, the race, and even nationality.
