Part 5/8:

Secretary John Vicrimoleia made a public statement emphasizing the Philippines' commitment to dealing with foreign influencers who disrespect local customs and laws. Vitali's antics have not gone unnoticed, and officials conveyed a firm message: there would be no special treatment for him. He would remain detained while awaiting trial, showcasing the Philippines' unwillingness to tolerate behavior that belittles locals or disrupts public order.

In contrast to other recent cases involving influencers in Asian countries—like Johnny Somali in Japan and South Korea—the Philippines authorities have demonstrated a no-nonsense approach. They acted quickly, parading Vitali in front of cameras just days after his arrest, sending a clear signal about the seriousness of his actions.
