I met a neighbor this morning and asked me whether I realize that we are living in a virtual martial law environment; I said yes.
The pandemic was an opportunity for those in power to flex their power and authority
1. The police a civilian authority is dressed constantly in military outfit - Battle Dress Attire in fatigue
Are we in war or is this marial law;
2. Some measures being imposed by the police authority are severe and cruel; as if the people are the enemy and not the virus;
3. Some measures vary and capricious in implementation
4. The unchecked exercise of power has resulted in rise of govt debt by 3 million since 2020, and 300 billion for three months into 2021; this much spent in early campaign at barangay level ++++
5. With regards to election, it seems that they have it all sewed to the dynasty: even the close allies are out of the game.
