"yes there is honor, in japan its called harakiri or seppuku as it is a form of capital punishment for a samurai who had committed serious offenses, or performed for other reasons that had brought shame to them. so if reyes thought the investigations would bring shame to his family and himself, he'd rather punish himself than live and defend his case that will still bring self shame to him and for his family, so yes there is honor, compared to erap and garcia na ok ra sa ila mapriso and then huwat sa tide na mubali then baws2x nlang.
and another point why there is honor, because many of our govt officials now are linked with corruption cases, some are indicted some just hearsays but for the normal filipino people it is most certain that there is truth to these allegations and still most of them gets a pass, almost a norm for accused govt officials, but reyes, instead of being one of them, get tried and then walk away later on, he on the other hand, took it into his own hands and had the decency to punish himself compared to the others who insists they're clean and play hypocrite.

all I can see here is you're trying to defend Angelo Reyes actions.. Isnt it an act of admiration

I know you didnt literally said the word "HERO" instead "HONOR" but its obvious you idolize him.. Pointing out with what you said that I lack comprehensive skills, I would say you have to revisit your post.. You need to listen.. not just reading those letters...
