Stand-Up Comedian Gold Dagal Killed in Shooting
GOLD DAGAL – The stand-up comedian was shot and killed in Pampanga last Saturday. His sudden death has left fans, fellow comedians, and human rights supporters grieving.
Gold was known for his bold humor, often making jokes about famous people and important issues. His style of comedy touched on sensitive topics, which may have led to threats against him.

Project Jade, a nonprofit group, confirmed his passing in a Facebook post. They remembered Gold not just as a comedian but also as someone who stood up for people’s rights. “TTo many, Gold was a comic with crude humor. But to us, he’s one of the few people who stood up against human rights violations and indoctrination. Hustisya para sa’yo, Gold. Salamat sa suporta mo sa Project Jade. Pahinga ka na,” the post read.
