FOR the first time, Pinky Amador granted a one-on-one sit-down interview to talk about her curse-filled outburst that was caught on video and went viral on social media early this month.
The clip captured an enraged Amador cursing at a woman inside what appears to be an office, as the actress demands for a supposed long overdue “circular.”
Amador mentioned numerous times her life being endangered, referring to overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) supposedly being allowed to check in at the building where she lives.
Speaking over “Rated K,” Amador explained that she was merely asserting her right as a resident of the said building.
Amador also said she has nothing against OFWs.
“Ang mga OFW natin, bayani ng bayan. Bakit naman ako magagalit sa kanila? Sa katunayan, naging OFW din ako. Mahal ko ang mga OFW. Natutuwa pa nga ako kung makakatulong ang building namin sa pagtatanggap sa kanila para makauwi na sila. Ang naging problema lang dito, hindi kami sinabihan,” she said.
After what happened, Amador acknowledged that her outrage may have gone too far.
“Maaaring sumobra talaga ‘yung galit ko na nakapagsalita ako ng masasakit, na nainsulto ko ang mga kausap ko at pati na rin ang mga nanood ng video. Ang hinihingi ko lang naman is paumanhin dahil sa bugso ng damdamin, takot na takot na ako. Galit na galit na kaming lahat. Hindi namin alam kung bakit kami binabastos at binabalewala para sa isang bagay na dapat naman nilang ibigay sa amin,” she said
Amador then turned emotional as she shared her learning from this experience.
“Tinamaan din naman ako ng malaki dito. Nakasakit ako, nasaktan din ako. I’ve learned my lesson. But this isn’t about me. This isn’t about Pinky Amador. Tungkol ito sa nakararami,” she said.
“Para sa ibang mga building administration na sana pangalagaan nila ang kalusugan ng mga nakatira doon. Sana pangalagaan nila ‘yung pagbigay ng impormasyon. Napakahalaga ng impormasyon sa panahon ng pandemya,” she added.(ABS-CBN)
