MANILA, Philippines ? Pampanga Representative Juan Miguel ?Mikey? Arroyo on Tuesday pushed for tighter regulation of the world?s leading social networking site, Facebook, after he claimed to be a victim of a ?malicious attack? by one of its members.

?My picture was posted on Facebook with a caption saying I was shopping for wine at the height of [Storm] ?Ondoy.? [This] is another malicious attack on my person. It is so depressing,? Arroyo wrote in an e-mail response to the Facebook post which has appeared in several blogs.

The original post had the following caption: ?Was buying food for keeps? then we saw Mikey Arroyo in Rustan?s liquor section asking the salesman for a brand of hard alcoholic drink. Effin? crazy! Just a few kilometers away from Katipunan, people are needing help for search and rescue, and there he was buying bottles of alcohol. See for yourself and tell me what you think.?

The picture showed a man?s profile with his back to the viewer looking at rows of alcohol inside what appears to be a liquor store.

Arroyo claimed he was in Malacañang last Saturday and that it was difficult to cross Katipunan from the village where he lives because of the rising floods.

?How could I be at Rustan?s on Katipunan Avenue at the height of [Storm] Ondoy when Katipunan was impassable at that time? [For the] record, I was in Malacañang with my family trying to mobilize rescue and relief operations for people of Metro Manila and for my constituents in my district in Pampanga,? Arroyo said.
