This post is rather alarmed about the huge outlay that were needed for BAHO laws 1 and 2, allegedly to be used for testing contract tracing quarantine facilties vaccines and more..  The country has incurred huge debts, mosly from multilateral organizations.

And yet our lawmakers and some leaders speak as if we we have endless source of funding for all of these:

1.  A solon has a TV ad to convince the Congress to give P10,000 each of citizens during this later part of Pandemic.

2.  Where has all the money gone  -  those that were budgetted by Congress.   The appeal by a Senator for an audit and/or accounting of the billions would seem to have fallen on deaf ears

This post sees coVid19 as an opportunity for politicians to consolidate their power, organization, and distribute rewards early on before the 2022 elections

1.  The barangays though ill prepared to handle complex aid distribution were given vast amounts of power, and of course they are now beholden to one man/organization.

2.  The military were delegated vast powers to arrest and even shoot troublemakers.  And in the end there were deaths;   needless deaths and plenty of imprisonment.

All of a sudden, the common citizen feels subdued and incarcerated for the sake of public health issues. But one sees double standards:   for social massing as in the case of Police General, and in riding in tandem for couples:    military shamelessly ride in tandem, while it is prohibited for the majority. 

3.  The SAP largesse was a form of political campaign taken out of public funds running into billions, and now the govt is engaged in double talk because it finds out it could not fund the billions that it promised to the people.  But were authorized under the BAHO law

4.  During the pandemic many agenda were pushed that are not relevant to the  coVid19 and which do  not recognize the difficulties of the people during the pandemic:

      1.  Registration of the bicycles (just because  many are using this)
      2.  Taxing on line sellers (those who are just being entrepreneurial due to the  difficulty in finding
            jobs;
     
However one sees a mature politician and technicians making sure that the opponents of the state and his are made aware of the vast political powers and authority that he has and are warnings to those who will cross his path.  Be it the media, leftist legal fronts.

Arrest of a netizen alleged to be posting fake news - a warning to those who bash government efforts to fight CoVid19

It is more fun criticizing

An artist, scriptwriter, businesswoman was arrested and detained early morning of Sunday for posting alleged fake news that 9,000, total residents of Zapatera  as center of the Solar System.  The woman, who imply she  is a lawyer claims her post does not aim to sow confusion. among the residents.  Sec 6f of the Bayanihan to Heal as One Law. The case was not filed by National Official but by the mayor.   It is up to the  court/fiscals to decide.   As to whether the arrest is unconstitutional (the  entire law must be declared unconstitutional  - But section 7 says that this law must prevail.)

The more important fear being sowed is among those who bash, curse, or include political issues in their post with regards to the coVid19 post which includes and not limited to posts on SAP, handling of the crisis and morel

The President has been empowered and authorized by the power vested in him by the nation to use ways and means to execute plans and orders of his govt.   He might use this correctly or abuse this, but he has that authority over ordinary citizens who oppose him or wrongly accuse him/her  falsely.

Its time to delete or modify post or apologize publicly. There are 3 laws that can be thrown towards the basher:    the cybercrime law, the Revised Penal Code on libel and defamation and Section 6f of the Bayanihan to Heal as One Law.
