Here are the 5 cases of Plagiarism in Philippines.
First: Vicente Sotto plagiarism
Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III continued to deny allegations of plagiarism, almost six years after he was accused of copying from the late US Sen. Robert Kennedy for a speech.
Second: orange and lemons plagiarism
Orange & Lemons made a name in the middle of 2005 through their somewhat retro fashion sense and their sound, which was obviously influenced by The Beatles, mixed with ‘80s music.
The band's momentum stalled considerably when they figured in a controversy. They were accused of ripping off the melody of an obscure new wave song for a popular reality TV show—"Pinoy Ako" for Pinoy Big Brother, which had commissioned them to write its theme song. Orange & Lemons denied allegations of direct infringement and plagiarism.
Third: Manny V. Pangilinan plagiarism
In April 2010, businessman Manuel V. Pangilinan tendered his irrevocable resignation as chair of the Ateneo de Manila University (AdMU) board of trustees after it was found that portions of the commencement speeches that he delivered at the school’s graduation rites in March that year were copied from the speeches of celebrities like J.K. Rowling, Oprah Winfrey, Barack Obama, and Conan O’Brien. To be fair, Pangilinan was not directly at fault. His speechwriters were responsible for the plagiarism.
Fourth: Pia Cayetano plagiarism
In a five-page complaint filed before the ethics and privileges committee, a certain Alberto L. Ong, Jr. claimed Ms. Cayetano "abused and misused her knowledge of the law when she deliberately delivered speeches without proper attribution from the author of the work."
Fifth:bench accused on plagiarism
