Why Bongbong Marcos will not make a good president of the #Philippines

By -


There is no reason to expect that Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. would be a 'good' president. Like all of his contemporaries, he is the epitome of the traditional politician. Filipinos — especially northerners — point out that he has done much to improve their lives. That does not demonstrate principled leadership. It's an example of the same old partisan politics — reallocating and redistributing as much of the country's wealth that he will allow to his 'kababayans.' They overlook the fact that Marcos is NOT a representative of Ilocos; he is a SENATOR of the REPUBLIC. That is an office that serves the NATION; ALL Filipinos, NOT his local network of relatives, friends, cronies and hangers-on. His office represents ALL ethnic groups; it isn't limited to people born in the Ilocos region. Understanding that the President of the Republic represents ALL Filipinos should come first.

    The fact that he is the son of the Hitler of Asia (Ferdinand Marcos) SHOULD COME FIRST! Would Germany elect an Adolph Hitler Jr? IT'S INSANE!

      PFEMARCOS is the best president ever of the Philippines all your accusations are based from propagandas and lies. They are in the court of justice declared NOT GUILTY BEYOND ANY REASONABLE DOUBT we are not idiots, like you, we have eyes and clear mind to understand what is right and truth. Those garbage against Marcos are the manipulations from the people full of greed for power and corrupt evil heart.

      Hitler of Asia are Aquinos' way of calling FEM and it is very obvious you, as well, is Brainwashed. It does not represent the sentiments of majority. Get your facts straight, especially your name, Mr. Anonymous.

    Who ANYONE'S parents were, doesn't have a damn thing to do with who they are as the next generation. God!! You people can be so stupid at times. You talk as if he was elected on a Monday, by Tuesday he will have declared Martial Law. But look who I am talking to here? You talk s**t on Marcos, while electing the the half-wit son of a former Japanese sympathizer, and Colonel in the NPA.

      It is obvious that the Yellow Zombies have started their black propaganda as it was in the EDSA 1 revolution. Their accusations and arguments are baseless and unfounded.

    These Unlamented EDSA Yellow Protagonists are trying their best to revive the euphoria of 1986. Hahahahaha. 30 years ago pa yon mga dude. Nabalanse na ng mga taumbayan ang kanilang pananaw. Si former Pres. Marcos, sa paningin ng dilaw sobrang masama at yun ang tinuro sa mga aklat simula noong 1986 hanggang ngayon. Inspite of that, hindi pa rin mahikayat ang buong sambayanang Pilipino na maniwalang basura at demonyo nga si Macoy dahil ang dami niyang iniwan na sa atin na napapakinabangan ng lahat hanggang ngayon, pati na ng mga taong galit sa kanya. Sa kabilang banda naman, tuloy ang magandang alaala ni Ninoy na siyang nagpalago ng NPA, nakipagkunchaba sa CPP at tumulong magtatag ng NDF (National Democratic Front). Galing si Ninoy sa Huk country, Tarlac, kaya hindi maipagkakaila na marami siyang kaalyadong Huk na bandang huli ay nag-reorganize para maging NPA dahil yun na lang ang tanging paraan upang mapatalsik si Macoy lalo na't nag-Martial Law na. Anong sabi Fr. Conrado Balweg ng Cordillera Autonomous Region? Dwindling force na sila noong mag-EDSA '86. Kaso pinakawalan sina Bernabe Buscayno, Ka Roger, Joma Sison, Luis Jalandoni, Victor Corpuz at marami pang mga leader ng kaliwa. Bakit? Kasi kaalyado nga yang mga yan sa pagpapabagsak kay Macoy kaya dapat regaluhan ng paglaya. Ano ba ang sabi ni late Senator Jovito Salonga noong dinalaw siya ni late Senator Jose Roy sa hospital after the Plaza Miranda bombing? Sabi ni Sen. Salonga: "Ka Pepe(fondly addressing Sen. Roy), may kinalaman si Ninoy sa aming pagkabomba". Sen. Roy was with his son then, Ron Roy who is now a lawyer. Sensing that Sen. Salonga mighty say more damaging things, the good Senator Roy just asked Sen. Salonga to stay relaxed and take his needed rest which the latter did. Quo Vadis, yellow? The rainbow is taking over. It offers better hope without masks and with all the naturalness. Paalam!

Duterte BPI bank scandal a trap set for Trillanes?

By -
Image
There are now papers floating around that the BPI account in Julia Vargas has a running balance of around Php22,000xx from March 2015 to March 2016. It's peanuts, and Trillanes makes a big fuzz about it? Sonamagan, even call center agents would have this kind of bank accounts; definitely does not show a corrupt DU30. And then, Trillanes talks of 42 real estate properties, but mostly owned by the children of DU30. Yet, the first one that media checks is a unit in P Guevarra, which is only valued at 2.3 million. Even ordinary employees could buy such unit. That could hardly buy just the main door, an imported antique, in the house of Binay, which has been valued at 15 million, yes just the freaking door by itself. What is this, they are again using trial by publicity, which they effectively used on CJ Corona whom they accused him of having 80 properties. In the end, it comes out Corona had only four properties, three of which was purchased for investment purposes only. I don'...

Day 2: Senate hearing backfires against a rattled Senator Leila de Lima!

By -

Just watched Day 2 of Senate hearing. Tables were turned once again on De Lima, without any effort it seems from the PNP or Duterte's senate allies. This must really be karma at work, or Duterte's magic is really strong. De Lima opened the session by saying she had asked ABS-CBN, Inquirer, and GMA 7 to submit their "kill list" databases and methodology for compiling the lists. However, only GMA 7 submitted. Strange. If those lists were being prepared properly, shouldn't these media groups have their databases and methodology on hand at any time? Or were those lists haphazardly done? Sandra Cam showed up in the middle of the hearing and sat directly behind De Lima. But Cam disappeared after a while, so viewers were not treated to scratching and hair-pulling. A group of women wearing dark glasses, masks, and headscarfs sat in a row on one area–I don't know why De Lima made them dress like jihadist terrorists, but they were her witnesses. (No offense mean...

Over 100M-peso cost of #DongYanWedding shouldered by GMA Network as publicity investment!

By -
Image
I was correct with my gut feelings. My friendly butiki, who listens to everything inside the executive offices of GMA7, confirmed that it was the network that paid for everything (repeat, everything) in the so called 'royal wedding'. It was over Php100m on the wedding day alone, not including other expenses in the pre-nuptial activities. This is an eye-popping amount if it is just a wedding expense (as I am one of those who think that a 20m wedding is already stupid and insensitive in a Third World setting, even if one could afford a 500m one). Over 100m, however, is a justifiable amount, even cheap vis-a-vis the ROI, if it is accounted as marketing and advertising expense of a large corporation that regularly spends much more anyway in their ads and promos. If the network has been able to project that their signature stars are bigger than those from competition, then they would have been able to deliver the message that GMA7 is the bigger kid in the block (don't get me...
