Humingi ng dispensa ang pamunuan ng Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges (CSPC) kay Mariyela Mari Hugo.
Ito ay kaugnay sa kontrobersiyang dulot ng valedictory speech ng Batch 2022 Top 1 at magna cum laude graduate ng CSPC na si Jayvee Ayen.

Ayon sa pahayag na inilabas ng CSPC sa pamamagitan ng kanilang Facebook page ngayong Miyerkules, July 13, 2022, ilang araw na raw paksa ang valedictory address ni Jayvee sa social media, na anila'y isang masahol na mundo kaysa sa totoong mundo na pinamumuhayan ng mga tao.
Panimula sa kalatas, “The issue on the Valedictory Address of Mr. Jayvee Ayen has been dragging for days, especially in the social media/virtual world.
“A world we have to contend with aside from the real/physical one we have.
“A world that is sometimes more harsh than what we have in the daily grind.”
Samu’t saring mga salita na raw ang naibato kay Jayvee kaya sila na mismo ang humihingi ng paumanhin kay Mariyela.
Hinihingi nila ng paumanhin ang “carefee attitude” ni Jayvee na wala naman daw intensiyong kopyahin ang ideya at istilo ng kanyang talumpati na walang karampatang pagkilala sa orihinal na may likha nito.
Humingi rin sila ng kapatawaran sa mga tao o grupo na maaaring naapektuhan sa pangyayari.
Saad sa kanilang pahayag, “With all that has been said and done and on behalf of Mr. Jayvee Ayen, we apologize to Ms. Mariyela Mari G. Hugo for the carefree attitude of Mr. Ayen in unintentionally copying the idea and style of her speech without proper attribution.
“We apologize to all other individuals and entities who may have been offended and affected by this issue.”
Nagsusumamo sila sa lahat na palipasin ito na walang galit kay Jayvee lalo na ngayong naghahanda na ang binata sa pagsisimula ng bagong yugto ng kanyang buhay matapos siyang gumradweyt sa kolehiyo.
Anila, “We knock on the generosity of hearts of everyone to allow this to pass without hatred towards the person as he moves on to start a career in his life as an entrepreneur or whatever path he would wish to take.
“We offer a reconciliatory gesture to Ms. Hugo and all others for the gap this issue has created.”
May mga gagawin daw silang hakbang sa loob ng kanilang institusyon upang magkaroon ng kalinawan kay Jayvee at sa buong paaralan.
Pagtatapos pa nila, “Rest assured that internally, we shall as we always do, within the rules of the College, be making appropriate steps for corrective and formative measures towards Mr. Ayen and in the school in general.
“Finally, we appeal for sobriety and calm. Peace to all. Thank you and God bless.”
THE PLAGIARIZED SPEECH
Umingay ang tungkol sa speech ni Jayvee kahapon, July 12, nang i-call out ng isang TikTok user (@keiadreyes) ang pamunuan ng CSPC dahil sa pagkopya ng graduate sa speech ni Mariyela.
Caption ng uploader: “A magna cum laude who can't write his own speech. Hindi 'to basta basta "lang" nakakahiya.
“Mariyela Mari Hugo (the one wearing green) is the original speaker and author. She's from FEU (july 2, 2019).
“Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges, please do something about this.”
May halos pitong milyong views na ito sa TikTok ngayong araw.
Si Jayvee ay magna cum laude CSPC sa kursong Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship na nagtapos nitong July 2022, at si Mariyela ay cum laude sa FEU sa kursong Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in English na gumradweyt naman noong July 2019.
Ang common denominator ng speech: “LANG.”
Pansin na pansin ang pagkakapareho ng tono, pagbigkas, mga salitang halos magkapareho.
May ilang iniba rito para maging akma sa sitwasyon kagaya ng kurso, taon, at lugar kung saan sila nag-aral at nagtapos.
Base sa video, malinaw na ginaya ni Jayvee ang ilang bahagi ng speech ni Mariyela na nag-viral noon at pinag-usapan ng netizens.
Narito ang bahagi ng speech ng dalawa na magkapareho:
Mariyela: “Lang. The short term for the Filipino word 'lamang' which means just or only.”
Jayvee: “Lang. A shortened Filipino word for 'lamang' which means mere, just, or only.”
Mariyela: “'Yan lang. Ito lang.”
Jayvee: “'Yan lang or ito lang.”
Mariyela: “Ah, MassCom lang, video-video, tapos endo after ng project. Management lang? Di ba, puro plan lang yun tapos magsusulat kayo dun ng mga number? Ah, alam mo ang hina mo, mag-Educ ka na lang kaya?”
Jayvee: “Entrep ka lang. Di ba, tinda-tinda lang 'yan? Office Ad ka lang. Ah, sulat-sulat, encode-encode lang. Tourism ka lang, usher-usherette, taga-smile lang. HM ka lang, di ba lutu-luto lang 'yan?”
Mariyela: “But what does this imply? Knowlegable people shouldn’t be teachers? I shouldn’t teach because I won’t get rich from it? Who should be teachers then?”
Jayvee: “Does this implies [sic] that intelligent people should not be in the field of hospitality, tourism, and business management?”
Mariyela: “Our profession is deemed unusual, impractical, easy.”
Jayvee: “Does this indicate that business management are [sic] impractical, basic, and easy?”
Mariyela: “I beg to disagree.”
Jayvee: “I beg to disagree.”
@keiadreyes A magna cum laude who can't write his own speech. Hindi 'to basta basta "lang" nakakahiya. #fyp #fyp? #feu #cspc ? original sound - XH Kirari - Kira
Ayon kay Jayvee, relate na relate lamang daw siya sa talumpati ni Mariyela at wala siyang intensiyong kopyahin ito.
Para naman kay Mariyela, sana ay nagbigay-kilala o attribute si Jayvee sa orihinal na may akda ng talumpati.
Saad ng FEU graduate sa kanyang panayam sa Balita, “The issue has already been brought to my attention by concerned netizens.
“While one may have good intentions, one must still check if the means to actualize those intentions are also ethically acceptable. Borrowed ideas, even inspirations, should be cited or at the very least, acknowledged.
“I hope that this issue serves as a reminder to everyone to review and uphold their standards."
