Japanese contractors should build the flood control projects

It is more fun criticizing

The flood control projecs in Marikina which seemed to withstand the strength of the recent flood make many Filipinos conclude that indeed the Japanese should just be prequalified to build our flood control projects.  What is odd is that these contractors used Filipino labor.  Where lies the difference?

Why there was violence in the streets of Manila yesterday,, September 21, 2025

It is more fun criticizing


It was heart pounding watching these videos.  It makes you  afraid but you could notice that those leading the violence looked like they are provocateurs and perhaps paid:   they wore bonnets, had black clothing and wore masks. They were not protesting or  holding a rally.  They were destroying and fighting and hurting authorities.  They destroyed traffic lights, islands and barriers.   This is no way to protest against wrong doing by doing another wrongdoing   They are organized.    And that should be investigated.  The destruction of public property was just as sad and ironic:   protest vs those who plundered govt property.

This post condemns the acts of plunder and pillage of govt treasury;  equally condemnable were acts of anarchy  and crimes against police officers (who had nothing to do with the acts of high govt officials).  We value order vs disorder.  WE are sure there is still Divine Justice

The Sept rally was a perfect storm for many factors:

1.  The Duterte PBBM conflict which included the arrest and extradition to the Hague of PRRD;

2.   The flood control scandal which were featured live on TV provoking anger in many of the watchers.

3.    The anti PBBM growth wanting him to step down for poor governance

4.    The scandalous and hurting display of wealth by nepo babies, the contractors, employees and official of the govt department for roads and highways;  pictures of millions stacked for distribution  to the commissioners (elected govt officials?)

5.   Anomalous GAA with insertions, the diversion of Philhealth, PDIC funds to be part of UA

6.    The widespread huge corruption of govt funds and taxpayers money.

7/    The floods brought about by typhoons and coupled with 2.

The riots were bound to erupt and explode and they did.   

We do not want this order.  We want Peace.   in the Philippines

15 contractors cornered P100 billion of flood control projects?

There are surveys and conversation going around:   if you want to be super rich, a millionaire or billionaire, what would your career be?  It is no longer  being a superb businessmen with lots of self improvement and sacrifice.  A group says be a contractor;   another said  DP.. contractor, and others said be a ....man.  What silly and bad answers.  A loss of sense of morality and right.

1.  Surely there was a lack of oversight.  The auditors and the Secy of the Dept was sleeping (or worse in cahoots)

2.  That this went on for sometime means, it has blessing of higher ups (and therefore participates in the sharing.  Napoles we think was taught if not just encouraged to carry out the PDAF loophole to to her thing.

3.  That the head pretends not to know this, feigning surprise is surprising.   

4.  The conversation gives bad example to the young:   that it is ok to steal big time in the country, that the big time plunderers, pillagers will not get caught;  That thieves were suits and barong Tagalog.

They say, that in leadership, the HEADS LEAD THE TAILS.  What kind of heads do we have.  Shall we cut the head to stop these crooks

Thank you for the people who are exposing this and demanding accountability.  The guilty ones should be censured and legally made accountable
