By -


My sister-in-law who is 19, wanted to register as a first time voter..the COMELEC of course wanted to see an ID or her NSO issued birth certificate…since she graduated high school two years back, she has been staying with my family watching over my kids and of course her ID was of her senior year in high school…NOT ACCEPTABLE they say..get a birth certificate they say..no surprises at NSO either..NO ID NO BC..get a barangay clearance they say so they can issue a BC..off to the barangay hall…WTF..they will only issue clearance if you are a registered voter…

Spoke to a councilor and all he can say is sorry but that's the protocol…fuck that, you just lost 4 votes you moron…no wonder why people resort to get ID's from Recto…round in circles we go in this fucked up country..damn..i never wanted to use my visa to the US because i wanted to stay here hoping things will changes for the better..but with this latest incident, i am seriously considering leaving this STUPID place..

    That's not the half of it. Nay, that's just the tip of the garbage dump. They won't accept an identification card issued by this government unless it has a photo. Older SSS, PagIbig cards doesn't have room for it, so you try to get one, which is pretty much how everything else works here, all runarounds, no direct paths. Oh, I need to mention, it took us 6 years to get our voter's ID. And now they say it's not necessary to vote. Contradiction? Hell yeah.

    Yes, from my own experiences, I would say the Philippines is not only the red tape capital of the world, but has the dumbest systems and services known to man. Took me a trip to 3 cities just to get a copy of my kid's bc, waiting in hours long queues, paying double to go through the fast lane, and fir fucks sake you still need an inked footprint of your child?? 50 years behind the rest of the world I'm afraid, but what do you rxpect when the country's being run by dickheads?

    From Comelec's website ...

    "A person has to establish his (or her) identity upon filing his (or her) application. The following are valid identification documents:
    Employee’s identification card (ID), with the signature of the employer or authorized representative;
    Postal ID ;
    PWD Discount ID;
    Student’s ID or library card, signed by the school authority;
    Senior Citizen’s ID;
    Driver’s license;
    NBI clearance;
    Passport;
    SSS/GSIS ID;
    Integrated Bar of the Philippine (IBP) ID;
    License issued by the Professional Regulatory Commission (PRC);
    Certificate of Confirmation issued by the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) in case of members of ICCs or IPs; and
    Any other valid ID.
    In the absence of any of the above-mentioned identification documents, the applicant may be identified under oath by any registered voter of the precinct where he (or she) intends to be registered, or by any of his (or her) relatives within the fourth civil degree of consanguinity or affinity. "

    You can get a BC online... upon delivery, the courier will not require any ID as long as the owner of the BC has picture in it.

      I cannot edit... it should read " the courier will accept any ID as long as the owner of the BC has picture in it."

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...

Unfollowing @rapplerdotcom: On the growing irrelevance of Maria Ressa

By -
Image
How the mighty have fallen—Maria Ressa, former CNN bureau chief and former head of the ABS-CBN news department, has been reduced to picking fights with Mocha Uson. Ressa’s website Rappler has been posting a series of articles against pro-Duterte netizens who lambasted the yellow media for their biased reporting. Mocha Uson was singled out by Rappler because she’s one of the most vocal Duterte supporters, and her blog has been overtaking Ressa’s Rappler in Facebook engagements. What a humiliating blow for Maria Ressa’s ego. A mere “sexy star” (as Rappler calls Mocha), with none of Ressa’s credentials, experience, or funding, has beaten her at her own game. How could this happen? As a netizen who used to read Rappler but who now prefers to read Mocha’s blog, let me offer an explanation. I prefer getting my news from Mocha Uson because she provides the updates that none of the yellow media are reporting. For example, it was through Mocha’s site that I found out abo...
