#PNoy was just being honest in his speech before #PopeFrancisPH

By -


The thing is, did PNoy lie before the Pope? Did he speak with invented facts and innuendos just so he can hug the limelight for himself? Or did he simply talk of the truth? And I'm not talking about the truth that you or I agree or disagree with I'm talking about the truth in PNoy's own perspective. It was his observation and if he think that he needs the Pope to hear it, hey, to whom you can confide the truth better than the Pope?

I'm not defending PNoy for there are people who can do that better than me. And it's not my business to shield anyone from blame or criticism. My business is to present the other side of the equation. My focus is on the criticisms of what PNoy has done in the presence of the Pope.

So what if he talked politics? He's a politician. He did not talk about pure church matters nor even point a finger to the Vatican. He merely talked about his experience and observation (and also frustration maybe) with church people who he praised in past works and also chided for what he perceives as its silence from past abuses. What's wrong with that?

Have you heard/read the political speeches of Pope Francis made both in the past and present? Have you read his scathing criticisms of the Vatican bureaucracy? Of the 'haggard' Europe? About Brazil's church for 'exodus' of the Catholic followers? About Italian mafia? His criticisms on this and that matter or issue, etc.?

You think the Pope was shocked hearing those things from PNoy? I'm not saying stop the hypocrisy.

Just stop it, please.

    Pnoy was quoting the bible and telling everyone about conquistadores and how his family saved the Philippines from the dictator. No he was not lying!

      I agree. Unfortunately Tagle supports Noynoy who is obviously corrupt, liar, hypocritical, and incompetent.

    aquino was butthurt when some of the catholic church leaders who are members of the NTC are asking him to step down coz of the corruptions that are seen happening under his watch and they too are butthurt coz aquino isn't doing anything to stop it but instead he uses his pcos powers to protects them from being jailed.

    Wow, PNoy still continue/remain to be Vindictive, and always blame throw (GMA or Marcos). Again, it show our President still has not learn/matured/grown in the first 5 years of his term which up to now has no clear direction & still derailed.
    Why can't PNoy take an open minded approach to the challenges a President face that he need to succumb to the temptation to scapegoat and blame throwing again and again....
    How do people expect our President to be trusted in solving our problems when he normally waste time and effort on dysfunctional finger pointing.
    PNoy's way to gain public support & acceptance will always capitalize on failures or bad mouthing his predecessors and merely Ride on the Legacy of parents that our people feel obligated to give him an equal level of endearment.

The sound of a #Tagalog convo: 'like chickens and hens cackling in unison'

By -

While I'm not sure the language should totally go the way Latin did, one can't deny the limited use of Tagalog. As it is now, a sentence can't be done without two or three borrowed words in English which makes it redundant in academia. Somehow you gotta address the technical jargon but there really is no equivalent to it in Tagalog so the English term just ends up jammed in between the local vernacular. Nevermind the fact that reading Tagalog online is cringey no matter who wrote it. Add the fact that it just doesn't sound pleasing to the ear. Normal conversation with Tagalog is like chickens and hens cackling in unison to the uninitiated. It's the peasants' language through and through. ------------ This is a GRP Featured Comment.

Poor people in the Philippines seem to prefer poverty over aspiring to be not poor

By -

Sadly, a MAJORITY of the poor people here are bad people. That is WHY they are poor. They disrespect others, they disrespect themselves, and they disrespect God’s creation. Exactly how do they think they’ll be rewarded for that? If you genuinely had empathy, you would be able to get inside their heads and understand why they do these things, and perhaps know how to fix it. However, you are confusing “empathy” with “sympathy”. I have yet to meet a poor person who actually WANTS to do the things necessary to escape poverty. The funny thing is, everyone can see that I’m more successful than they are. They think this is because I’m “rich”. I’m sure a lot of them are full of jealousy (as benign0 describes) and sit around thinking “ha, it’s not fair, that foreigner is so rich and I’m so poor. I guess it’s OK if I steal his stuff”. Which they do. Regularly. I grew up poor. I know how it feels to be hungry, all the time, every day. I decided I didn’t like feeling like that. I’m successf

Filipinos "nice" but lacking in common sense -- IT business manager

By -
Image
As someone whom invested heavily in the Philippines managing an IT company, I view your assumptions as narrow minded. I’ve given hundreds of Pinoys IQ tests as part of the selection process, the vast majority of these IT graduates ( the cream of the crap ) performed dismally. After two years operating we decided to close up and retain Singaporean Chinese staff and Brazilians. One staff member does the work of approximately 10 Pinoys. The biggest issue was a sheer lack of common sense, they can do black and white but seldom grey. Higher order thinking skills and abstract reasoning skills seemed to me missing, as they would perhaps with someone diagnosed with mild Asperger syndrome. As people I found them nice, but rarely kind. Big difference there, anyone can smile. ---------------------- This is a GRP Featured Comment. Join the discussion !
