Ang also refuses to betray the former president by turning state witness and testifying against him in his plunder trial.


"Charlie has complete faith in the US court system," lawyer Donald Etra of Los Angeles said. "This is a matter of life and death. If he stays in the US, he will live. If he returns to the Philippines, the likelihood is he’ll be killed."
