George W. Bush found many rocks – really big one – in his first diplomacy test. Yet he didn’t have to pick one up when Jiang Zemin snarled that he answer for a Chinese F-8 fighter pilot’s death in collision with a US EP-3E spy plane. He just pointed them out to the Chinese leader whose bark, he knew, was worse than his bite.

And Egay – as his loved ones call him – in his father’s own words, was the "the first man to give us an idea of who Erap was really like."

After all, he was the man who released the video clip showing then Vice President Joseph Estrada and his friend Charlie "Atong" Ang playing high-stakes baccarat at the Heritage Hotel casino on Sept. 15, 1996.

He used to work as a technician for the casino’s closed-circuit television system.
