Duterte blasts Oligarchs

PhilWeb President Roberto Ongpin resigns after DU30 singles him out as an oligarch he wants to destroy.  The online games under franchise by PAGCOR will not be renewed.  The shares of stocks of Philweb has since nosde dived


Pres DU30 is starting to mind other matters this time vs Oligarchs (ololgarchs is the term he uses this at times especially at the environment summit held at Ateneo de Davao last Tuesday)  This seems to fit into his socialist bend, being pro people, and vs exploitation. He started out by lashing vs former DTI secretary Roberto Ongpin whose Philweb online permit he cancelled.  He was reputed to be close ally/crony of late strongman Ferdinand Marcos and other Presidents.   Ongpins involvement in insider trading also irks Pres. DU30

1. He says he is not vindictive, but he mentioned businessman Eric Gutierrez who was  a Mar Roxas ally and lashed out vs the same for not paying taxes for his plane and chopper, and his destructive mining in Agusan

2.  He promised to close companies who refuse his heed to end contractualization. He mentioned about big and small malls

Now that he is turning his gun vs the rich in society, expect trouble and another kind of war.  There are still debates on pros and cons of mining and labor contracting and outsourcing and the parties may not have done their homework and jumping to the wrong conclusion (as Trump did vs Filipinos)

Duterte announces 150 officials involved in illegal drugs

Pres Digong today named 150 personalities:  judges, representatives, local LGU executives past and present,  and police:  enlisted men and officers allegedly involved in illegal drugs.  The first order from the president was to cancel the licenses of the guns of these persons. He did this while visiting an army camp to condole with the families of military men killed in encounter with group whom he called bandits

What would happen to the elected officials if they are convicted?   If the evidences are strong against them?  Will they be forced to resign?

How can the conscience of these officials let them be double faced:  vowing to serve and protect the public on one hand, as they they take their oath of office and on the other hand destroying the brains of the young and their future?  How could they?   Many have lost their sense of right or wrong or een their conscience?

Why traffic is so bad?

                                   This portion of floodway near MEG, and Megawide is completed
                                    now thanks God. Passing through this was 1/2 hour ordeal b4

I had conversation with an AUV driver yesterday. I was his lone passenger for about 10 km at floodway and we had plenty of time to talk.

Our conversation focused on the traffic which certainly affects his livelihood. What causes the traffic and how it can be solved:

1.  Illegal parking on main thoroughfares.  While the signs say they are tow away zones, the road widening of floodway for instance resulted in the same width of road for use by motor vehicles.  tHe road widening became the parking lot/garages of vehicle owners along the floodway.

2.  Just too many vehicles?   How can you reduce them?  Have age limit on what vehicles can travel ply the roads (the vintage car owners, the 4x4 owners are fighting tooth and nail to have this neutralized)

3.  Too many colorum vehicles.  They do not pay the franchise fees but rather pay the protection money to some govt authorities

4.  We need good traffic management.  More training of traffic enforcers.  Be sure we have traffic enforcers at the major thoroughfares and highways.  At the bottleneck at C6 and Highway 2000, most of the time no one is watching.  No traffic cops, hence the horrendous traffic at C6.

What they say about Pasig blue boys?

What are the action plans?

Sen Leila de Lima former DOJ secretary denies the accusations vs her as drug coddler and protector and decries the demolition job being done by Dutertes men.  She called on the extra judicial killings to stop.   The demolition job has been done via social media and there has been splicing of video tapes and photoshoppes of pictures to malign her. She denies the existence of a shabu lab and tunnel. As a matter of fact she was instrumental she said in the removal of the facilities of the drug lords.

She also denies the pictures that show her jamming with drug lords  The man allegedly to be Golangco was actually Cong Alfred Vargas at the DOJ quadrangle during her birthday party

Pero what is the latest?  Herbert Golangco ikinanta kay Bato LdL drug protector sa NBP?

Can Digong sustain his war vs drugs until the end of his term?

As of 3 pm today, the war vs drugs of Pres Duterte has resulted in nearly 500 dead, half of them from legitimate police operations, and the rest from vigilante killings, most of them bore weapons mostly 45 and 38 caliber.   Critics suspect some of them where planted.

Pres Digong hates drugs so much especially shabu because it is caused by chemicals. Some of chemicals used is battery water (sulfuric acid)  Drug users he said are also pushers to sustain the habit.  Most of them become violent, and  those who are users beyond a year are beyond redemption.  Those who advocate peace in dealing with drug addicts do not understand the propensity to be violent.  Some police officers have been injured gunned down in the drug operations.  These he said in his speech at Davao yesterday.

But pressures, are mounting vs the deaths resulting from the drug war.  UN has made its pronouncements.  The lawyers group are against the extra judicial killings. The Catholics have spoken against it. Richard Branson has spoken against the war of Digong and even predicted that it will not end drug problem in the country.  Soriano has made a swipe vs  these killings by mentioning sins vs the Lords commandments.

But we should appreciate the vigor and the determination of the Pres. to pursue what has promised to do.  At least we know something can be done right.  A problem has been addressed and very soon abuses related to drugs can end.  Like the narco politicos.
