Taxes paid to #Philippines gov't all for nought as traffic worsens and crime engulfs the nation

Everytime i go to work and see the long stretch of vehicles along edsa not moving, and the queue to ride the train on Qave stretches up to a kilometer or more, I regret being born here. Despite the taxes and all the burdens ordinary citizens carry day by day, it seems that we have to think of crime as a usual or a normal thing in our lives. How fucked can we be that the criminals are the police and the officials themselves? Given the chance and resources, ill probably live somewhere else. -------------------- This is a GRP Featured Comment.

#Philippines demands and gets apology from #Aegis for 'anti' video!

By -

Aegis Ltd, the HQ for Aegis Malaysia issued a clarification and an apology sometime tonight. It came from the Indian management, and that should suffice. The PHL embassy in Malaysia overreacted when this is not a country-to-country issue. This should be taken as a business issue. (Where is Ben Kritz when you need him?) To everyone, I stand by qualifying that the investor video "does connote a degree of sourgraping". I think that phrase places an emotional interpretation for some people, which is a mistake on my part because i could've been clearer. For me, sourgraping is similar to the process of buyer's remorse and like someone pointed out to me today, a kind of cognitive dissonance. A peer was telling me that there is such a thing called the Buyer's Remorse Triangle: effort, responsibility and commitment. Evidently Aegis placed a lot of effort to put up a business in the Philippines, and there is the joint responsibility of the PHL government to ease res...

Reporters Karen Lema and Manuel Mogato of @Reuters LIED about the Duterte "Hitler" quote

By -

The oh-so-noble journalists are at it again, this time, with Duterte’s Hitler comment. I am no Duterte fanatic. I criticize him more scathingly than anyone when his mouth is out of line. But this time, Duterte really didn’t say anything wrong. The real culprits behind the fuss over his Hitler comment are Karen Lema and Manuel Mogato, two Filipino reporters of the Reuters news agency, who wrote this article: “ Philippines’ Duterte likens himself to Hitler, wants to kill millions of drug addicts ”. Lema and Mogato are Filipinos. There’s no way they could have misunderstood what Duterte really meant in his speech. I watched the video and this is what the President said: “Hitler massacred 3 million Jews. There are 3 million drug addicts. I’d be happy to slaughter them. At least, if Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have ….. my victims, all criminals, to finish a problem of my country, and save the next generation.” (See for yourself here . The Hitler part is at 14:40....

How did COMELEak achieve the magic trick? Here's how! #Election2016

By -

They launched a code inside COMELEAK CENTRAL triggered approximately around 10:00PM or earlier on May 9, 2016 whose instructions are to SWAP THE VOTING CHANNELS between ROXAS and POE and between BBM and ROBREDO. WHAT IS THE EFFECT YOU ASK? All succeeding votes of Poe will go to Roxas and vice versa. Then all succeeding votes of BBM will go to Robredo and vice versa. That is the reason why Poe and Roxas' numbers got swapped around 10:10PM since they are so close with a 1% margin of difference and Roxas keeps climbing in percentages in a very unnatural way. On the other hand it took until 4:40AM in the morning for Robredo to finally catch up with BBM even with the manipulated numbers (their votes got SWAPPED at this point in time) because she is far behind in percentages, but it is very clear in the graphs that she climbed too fast starting @ the exact same time that Roxas did then plateaued until it reached a singularity. When you manipulate data this way, a SINGULARITY ha...
