Former SP Escudero points to fmr HOR speaker Martin Romualdez as mastermind behind the flood control projects

It is more fun criticizing

Sen Chiz Escudero, in a privilege speech before a Senate Plenary session points to fmr HOR Speaker Martin Romualdez as the mastermind behind the flood control projects  He urged every one to rip the script/narrative of Romualdez to divert attention on the anomalous flood control controversy.

The good senator was seen to be defending himself and distancing himself from:    1   insertions emanating from the Senate;    2.   allegations that he received millions of campaign funds from contractor.

This is going to be the start of the fight between two former boss of the Legislative bodies.  Where will this lead to?    Who will win?   Who will be jailed?  

Faux pas by Pres. Trump at Pope Francis Funeral

It is more fun criticizing

It was noted that POTUS Donald Trump committed faux pas during the funeral rites of Pope Francis at the Vatican regarding the requested attire.  He wore a blue suit instead the requested black suit and tiie.

It was noted that the current policy of POTUS Trump on migrants ran counter to the desire of the late pope to the latter.

Timor Leste denies extradition of former Solon Teves; how does it compare with PHL handling of its sovereignity?

It is more fun criticizing

Timor Leste has denied PHL request for extradition of wanted solon from the PHL which leaves our coutry's SOJ fuming   How does it compare to our DOJ, or other top govt official handling of FPRRD who handed over our citizen with nary observation of constitutionality, or consideration of PHL as a sovereign state?

What can be learned?  Is PHL respected as sovereign state?   What about the President and his relatives?  How do Filipinos view him?

Blood is thicker than water, President Biden pardons son Hunter in a conviction in gun case

It is more fun criticizing

President Joe Biden pardons son Hunter over a conviction in a gun case.   Thus proving that blood is thicker than water.  It looked  shameful coming from head of the model for a democratic country.  Thus nepotism and favoritism isnt expected to vanish, and that it is going to be governement of men and families.  

This act spoke tons of his administration and reign of Dems 

South Korean President declares martial law, then hours later recalls the order

Embattled Souuth Korean President  Yun Sook Yeol Tuesday night declared martial law;  the parliament hurriedly convened to declare the declaration null, and hours later the President had no choice but to recall the order.   The news is riped wih calls for his resignation impeachment.

What if Sarah Duterte wins 2028 election? What will happen to PNP, other officials who made life difficult for her and CS Lopez? What if Atty Lopez becomes DOJ head?

It is more fun criticizing

We dont have to look very far.  Pres Trump cases were an example.   The cases thrown vs Trump were reported to be politically motivated.

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith has withdrawn his cases and was reported to be resigning   The NY judge who allegedly tried the hush money case is postpoining his decision (No Trump as alleged by Harris is not a convicted fellon)

The PNP reaction to Lopez detention is as if she was convicted felon.   Take note that the quadcomm ruling vs OVP and/her staff can not be greater than the 33 million on more who elected her.

What happens in 2028 if she gets elected in 2028 as Pres?  What happens to the rest of people who are making life hard for her

Karma is real and it comes.  (Call it revenge and revenge happens)

Bakit binaha ng ganuong katindi ang Bicol sa typhoon Kristine? Saan napunta ang flood control project funding na daang bilyon?

It is more fun criticizing

We can only cry and pity the poor Bicolanos inundated by flood by rain brough by typhoon Cristine.  And the irony of it all is that the budget for flood control in the 2024 budtet is P255 billion.   Where did the money go?   Were the projects implemented?  Or improperly done

And the irony of it all is that the chairman of the appropiations committee is from Bicol.  The Senate President is from Bicol. 

And the past chair of ways and means committee were from Bicol and we hear about the heavily funded Bicol River Basin project.   

Some Engineers posited that the terrain will lead to the flood.  The 94 km Bicol river coming from as far as Ragay meets the Naga River and when there is high tide all the water meets the flood water at Naga City.   That is catastrophic.   

Typhoon Kristine was an act of God.  But let us see acts of men mitigate this.  We could have done better with flood  control.   

Is it good or bad for a leader to flip flop this early? Only those with dementia forget

It is more fun criticizing

The Dems candidate for President has been observed and criticized for flip flopping on many issues. (Computers are equipped with flip flop switches)  Clearly politicking or forgetting what has been said.  We sincerely hope that she wins her campaign en route to the White House

That makes the new candidate not much different from the elderly she replaced

This is aside from word salad (playing with words that are winded and meaningless)  "passage of time"

"what has been" etc.    

Does he deserve the respect of the rest of the world? Why did his countrymen elect him to be pitied today?

It is more fun criticizing

It is sort of cruel to watch an elderly leader commit this gaffe.  It is pitiful.   He wont get the respect of the rest of the world.  And his people also laughing stock.  We are glad we are from this country and not theirs.

Dr Willy Ong's video predicting the assassination attempt of President Trump

How can they be able to predict that...

7,000 men were sent, as the Philippines was one of the first countries to answer calls to assist South Korea from invading Chinese and North Korean Forces

It was through the leadership of late Pres. Elpidio Aquino.

Before, Filipinos helped Russian Jews in Samar .   In the 70s, Filipinos also played host to some 80,000 Vietnamese refugees in Bataan and Palawan.  

Quite a hospitable and generous country to brethren in need   

We do not deserve racism discriminations and now this bullying by a giant neighboring countries

Let us not discount the heroism, the bravery, and the camaraderie of Filipinos towards their fellowmen.

Some countries may be making a big mistake in bullying this country

Even the sons of the President went to war.!

"Promises promises"

1.  It is very long

2.  Some aspirational and far from reality

3.  Some are contradictory

We are happy though that we have visionary and aspirational leader. He is what we need  at the moment

Just imagine iff a boxer was elected a president or a former cabinet member or academician if he/she was

capable of drawing such a plan

With regards to contradictory contents, the cabinet and meetings would have to thresh out the contradictions

We thank the President and we blessed we have one today.   Let us support him

After the political noise has died down, we find out that Duterte has plenty of achievements

It is more fun criticizing

https://www.manilastandard.net/opinion/columns/virtual-reality-by-tony-lopez/361011/duterte-s-seven-biggest-achievements.html

Before all we hear were the barrage vs. Duterte mostly directed vs. the government response to Covid19, the Pharmaly, and the number of deaths in the drug war.  

As in all discrediting campaign vs a leader, the  protagonist is always pictured as the villain and devil.  The anger of the  other "commissioners"is so rabid that UN and ICC were involved.   How sad.

But Duterte accomplished the following:

1.  Via Tugade and Mark Villar -  long road network, bridges,  train lines, over passes, sky ways.;

2.  He did not bring the country to war on WPS.  Many can talk but its hard to do otherwise if you are dealing with XI who has the largest navy in the world and variety of missile firepower.   How can you dislodge these imperialists if they are all ready well installed by the previous regime

3.  Modernization of the military after beefing up salary.  Now we have more helicopters and transport plane,jet fighters, frigates and patrol boats.  No other administration has done that.  Now China would be more circumspect in bullying our countrymen.  So with our terrosists.   The Cobra attack helicopters has thermograph detectors and men in forest covers cant hide. 

4.  Beefing up of relief and rescue operations.    We have better response although it seemed many underestimated the power of Odette.  

5.  Aggressive betterment of civil servants.   Maybe buildings and facilities were improved.  and decorum of civil servants

6.  Free education

7.  Universal health care.

It is unfortunate that his administration has to face one of the toughtest test of any govt:   the covid19 pandemic.  And the calamities.   

Let us not totally believe what the other trolls print in their social media.   See through the squid ink and find the  truth

Shall I file my COC for President or Senator

It is more fun criticizing

I can file my COC why not?  For senator or even as President. Tomorrow is the deadline

Looking at the qualifications of some of those who filed their COC, I can see that I am ahead with my qualifications and academic ability.  In terms of integrity, I can be ahead.  I am winnable without the current realities of Philippine politics

However I lack the PHP and the machiner to do this.  Only those who have nationwide machinery to run the campaign, ,man the precincts will make it.  This leaves the game to the candidates who are loaded, with political machinery.  

Out with my wish and my dreams

The man who would be President

It is more fun criticizing

When I was very young (in high school)  I was sick and my Lelong (from my mother's side)  remarked that I should be careful with my health.  because he foresaw that I could be President.  I laughed the comment aside because it was very far from the truth

But now reviewing the list of candidates who have announced their candidacy

    1.  Emmanuel Pacquiao

    2.  Ping Lacson

    3.  BBM

    4.  Isko Moreno

I can say my Lelong was right.   I possess the intellect and the determination, and the academic qualifications to lead the nation.  I do not have issues in the likes of Pacquiao (lack of academic qualification - I have an MBA;  I took my college for 4 full years)      nor the suspicion on the association with the criminal groups or being accused in the Orbito case, nor the aspersion of Martial Law for BBM, nor the NPA alleged link with Isko.

I do not however have the political machinery nor the billions of PHP to launch my Presidency.  And so what my Lelong said was a self serving statement.  But I am almost there.  

Good bye Mr. President, rest in peace

We just got word that former Pres. Noynoy Aquino just died today, at age 61 (renal disease).   May God bless his soul and may his death remind us the mortality of men and life and that we should stop maligning  each other.   

Let us remember his good deeds and stop talking whatever shortcomings he has.  Let us not be caught between the sides who like him and  the the side that dislike him.  

Former govt officials told me that being a govt official is a thankless job.  It was only after 15 years that his /their cases (fabricated or imagined cases) were dropped.   That is torture.    The friend I know developed a difficult heart (hurt excusse the pun) disease.    And that seems to be the pattern.   

After Noynoy, Duterte will be next.?

                                        Portion of SCTEX cut by erosion from heavy rains

From CNN, habagat and Typhoon Inday brings more rains

From Inquirer - heavy rains flood SCTEX NLEX, portions of Central Luzon  (would you believe there was flood at Sagada?)

I just got two text messages from my brother (obviously forwarded by some one else) pointing out that nowhere in the world is there typhoon; and we have had 5:   Henry Gardo, Maria to mention some of them. And we have intense flooding with SCTEX with Bataan and other  Central and Northern Luzon provinces (Pangasinan) bearing the  brunt...

Could it be that anti God remarks of the Philippine head be behind  this?  This did not only caused angry reaction from the leadership of the Catholic church but probably from God Himself.

MALAKING PROBLEMA PAG KINALABAN ANG DIYOS...Ayan na nga

Come to think of it that is correct.  And  this all took place at the heels of this leader  delivering an important speech for his followers.  His followers, not him, are being punished.  Kadamay

                                                   Floods in Zambales

From CNN -Trillanes on   Du30 alleged hidden wealth


This post was rooting and 100% for the current leadership of the country prior to the elections.   Now this post is wondering where did I go wrong. Prior to the attacks by Sen Trillanes vs the first family alleged unexplained wealth, the current leadership was doing fine.  He avoided "patol" with the former.   But things turned for the worse when the alleged offshore account turned out to be non existence and lately the alleged plan by the Ombudsman to investigate such hidden wealth as revealed by AMLA

The highest office threatened to investigate the said constitutional office and even challenged the Ombudsman the CJ to resign together.

Bakit kaya.

The country's highest official has gone haywire and no longer acting as cool, composed brave, and incorruptible.  Di kaya siya  tumagal bilang pangulo.?

The anti illegal drug war has gone kaput too;  the war on corruption is going to the dogs after the Senate investigation on BOC

Impeachment here and there. A lot of smokes. Sino si Samuel Uy;  ano yong P2 billion na alleged hidden wealth?
