Under ba ito ng DMW, O, classified as OFW - Filipino pickpockets caught in Thailand

It is more fun criticizing

Embarrassing and shameful.   Let us be proud of our own country. No shaming.   

When shall we ever learn from tragedies involving field trip of children?

It is more fun criticizing

We had this in the locality.  Several schoolchildren and teachers (including a principal) died in a field trip to Batangas.   Did we stop this or took safety measures to prevent similar incidents.  I believe from the number of buses Ii still see on the road, the practice continues.

And so we had 25 dead,children and teachers from a fire running on LPG in Thailand.  Then we see video of enumeration of safety features of buses.

Some interim measures are in order:

1.  Stop field trips immediately.

2.  Subject buses to be used for safety inspection and upgrade, retrofitted with safety features.

3.   There should be a reminder of safety feature of the bus before each trip, and safety cards at the seat.

4.   Training of bus personnel on safety and evacuation during fires.

5.   Rule out buses that are deemed dangerous eg running on LPG, on hydrogen, on EVs unless they can be proven that they are fire proof.   

CNG powered bus sa Thailand galing sa field trip, 23 mga bata at guro namatay

It is more fun criticizing

Kalunos lunos ang nangyari sa mga batang nagfield trip sa Thailand.  Nasunog ang CNG powered bus na sinakyan nila 23 estudyante at guro binawian ng buhay.

Ang RE ay may dalang panganib gaya ng  EV na sumisiklab, at gaya ng bus na ito.

Prayers at condolence sa mga pamilya ng batnng ito       

What is the status of the Philippines in terms of GDP/capita

It is more fun criticizing

Rizal Philippines

Philippines is not poor.  Five years ago, ADB has removed the Philippines from the list of LDC (Less Developed Country) and is no longer eligible for aid/donation.  Loans yes and other assistance

As  per Wiki, Philippines is

    34th largest economy in the world

    3rd largest economy in ASEAN (after Indonesia and Thailand)

    6th in Southeast Asia after Singapore, Brunei, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia.   (We could be richer had  we not relinquished claim to Sabah, part of Sultanate of Sulu (thanks to some traitors who sold RP out to Malaysia)

    That is a good note we have to remember about the wealth of the Philippines

    GDP of Philippines as of 2016 is $2,951.07 vs  $5,907.91 of Thailand and fast rising Vietnam $2,185.69
