14 Giron closed the interview with this: “ I have over 20000 followers and the majority are asian and philippino and a lot of them have 5000 friends, that makes it easily over a hundred thousand followers that can read my comments and notes. I have received soooo many inquires for my chickens all over the philippines, asia, vietnam, all about this matter, and theyve made there own conclusions and decide not to buy in the Philippines, only from me. I have recieve hundreds of text messages and emails in support of me, and my facebook is at its friends limit on all of my facebook accounts. The only people who were deleted from my facebook acccounts were close friends to Jayson, and im still having 5000 friends, and at least have 1200 new requests this week alone. Now the breeders in Peru are understanding this drama, and the big time associations that embrace me are starting to come to my rescue to make open press about how humiliated and ungrateful it is becoming in the society there, without understanding that if it wasnt for me, no one would have a peruvian fowl in the U.S. or Asia. I hope you understand where im coming from. And follow this research with the merits it deserves. “ (Interview and story by Rodrigo Bacus) The author, Rodrigo Bacus, (left) with Freedom Lemon breeder Jeff Gamulo (middle) and Integrated Gamefowl Breeders Association officer Ony Nartea at the MANARoosterman booth during the 2013 World Gamefowl Expo in Cebu, Philippines. Despite all the bad mouthing, insult and threats, he received from Giron during the course of the interview, the author harbored no ill-feeling. Bacus, a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) graduate was unfazed by Giron’s talking about legal actions. He was kind to me, in the end we were sort of friends, Bacus said of Giron.
