The biblical passage “love thy neighbor” became the takeaway of award-winning TV host Boy Abunda from a case he took on, together with sibling senators Alan Peter and Pia Cayetano, in the latest episode of “Cayetano in Action (CIA) with Boy Abunda (BA).’

In the “Case 2 Face” segment on Sunday, September 10, a certain Berly complained against her elderly neighbor Trinidad for hurting her child more than once. Trinidad vehemently denied it.

While Berly had every right to file a case formally, her relationship with Trinidad – whom she has treated as her own mother – and love for the elderly ruled.

“Kung ano ang kayang pag-usapan, pag-usapan,” said Abunda as he reflected on the story.

Senator Alan, on the other hand, was reminded of 1 Timothy 1:9 in the Bible which says, “ang tao, hindi ginawa para sa batas.. ang batas ang ginawa para sa tao.”

“Kung titignan mo, nung binabasa ko [kung] ano ‘yung batas sa child abuse… pero nung nakita mo na sila (Berly and the older woman), it’s not about the law,” he explained. “It’s about ‘yung tao, ‘yung relationship, kung paano kakausapin, paano ipapaliwanag.. human relations pa rin talaga.”

“Cayetano in Action with Boy Abunda” airs every Sunday, 11:30 p.m. on GMA7.
