In an interview with SMNI, he added that the councilors’ decision to file a resolution declaring them persona non grata because of the video they created was “very immature” to him.

Darryl Yap, the director of VinCentiments, has remained in the news after Ai Ai delas Alas declared them “persona non grata” in Quezon City. “Well sa palagay ko mas marami silang ginawang mga hindi katanggap-tanggap para gawing unwelcome,” he concluded.

“This Ligaya DelMonte is part of the colorful methods in Philippine politics,” Darryl added. “I find it very immature. I find it very elementary. I find it very rudimentary for these politicians to actually take it personally.”

“Galing po mismo sa Konsehal na nagpasimuno nito, na maaari kaming tumapak o magpabalik-balik sa Quezon City.

“Matapos ko po mapanood ang video interview na ito, napagdesisyunan ko pong yayain, publicly, si Councilor Ivy Lagman na pag-usapan namin ang isyu na ito sa kahit saang branch ng David Salon sa Quezon City. Sagot ko na po,” Daryl Explained.

Some people appear to be on Darryl’s side because they believe they have no responsibility for what he did and should not be taken seriously. Many netizens, on the other hand, are dissatisfied with the director’s response to the situation and appear unconcerned with his claimed disrespect to the city’s official insignia. So yet, no public apologies have been given, and the councilor has just asked for the “persona non grata” designations of the two individuals to be lifted.
