Rappler CEO Maria Ressa under mounting pressure to explain sustained multi-million peso losses! 😱

By -


There are two entities registered with the SEC; Rappler Holdings and Rappler Inc. The first company is a funding conduit acting as an investor in the subsidiary. The second company is the one which operates the news site and employs Ressa and her Rapplerettes.

The question which Ressa should answer is where do they get the continued "investment" while Rappler continues to operate at a loss since its inception. Note that the parent and the subsidiary company both share a common set of stockholders.

The next question Ressa should answer is can each of the stockholders justify their financial wherewithal to be able to sustain Rappler's continued operation? The last capital infusion amounted to P120M.

Finally, there is the generally accepted accounting principle of a going concern. Losses incurred over time, since incorporation, would cast doubts on a firm's solvency. It is for this reason, that the SEC requires all registered corporations to submit their General Information Sheets and Audited Financial Statements every April after they have filed their Corporate Income Tax Return with the BIR.

How can Rappler's external auditor continue to justify its viability as a going concern if it continues to incur heavy losses? Rappler didn't address this issue when it published a rejoinder to Mr. Nieto yesterday. Of course, they can always recapitalize by increasing the parent and the subsidiary company's authorized capital stock. But eventually, the SEC will have no choice but to call the attention of Rappler to such moves, given the firm continues to lose money. This is the $64 question which Maria Ressa should answer.

Leni Robredo has become a sad mechanical puppet and an embarrassment to Filipinos

By -

Guess who has taken over Leila de Lima’s place on the anti-Duterte international speaking circuit? Watch this video that Leni Robredo made for an international NGO event in Vienna tomorrow. Warning: this will REALLY make your blood boil. If you have vertigo, sit down and take a deep breath before watching. You know what’s really sickening about this video? It’s not even the lies and exaggerations that Robredo is saying about what’s going on in the Philippines and how Pinoys feel about it (as if she’s in any position to speak for the Filipino people, who mostly hate her guts). It’s the hollowness and emptiness of the way she mechanically reads from a script that obviously someone else wrote. She’s making huge claims about thousands of people being summarily killed by police, but her eyes and voice are absolutely empty of emotion or conviction. She’s just a puppet playing a role, who doesn’t even understand what she’s doing or saying, she’s just mindlessly following her owner’

Jose Rizal never had Tagalog in mind when he encouraged us to love our own language

Posted by a certain Chloe Santiago on the Facebook GRP Community Group : Jose Rizal died in 1896 and Tagalog was declared the official language of the Philippine only in 1937. This can only mean that Rizal wasn't really talking about Tagalog when he made this statement: "He who does not love his own language is worse than an animal and smelly fish." Indeed. Who made the arbitrary directive to make the Tagalog dialect the "National Language" to begin with? Furthermore, why have a "National Language" when Filipinos are already proficient in the global lingua franca of commerce and scientific achievement?

Victims of drug-crazed addicts don't get 'trending' hashtags like #JusticeForKian

For the past few days I was doing research on a few things like I said. A new FB friend sent me a message telling me about a Dad in Dumaguete who lost his only daughter to a drug crazed addict who used 7 knives to stab her and a friend in Siquijor last April. I did the research, read up on everything and his recent "upheavals". I need not tell you all that I have no words to fully express how deeply this affects me because I am a single mom with a daughter too. His only daughter was even 3 - 4 months pregnant when she and her friend was mercilessly stabbed to death so many times by a drug addict. Nino Pinero is a professor in Siliman University. He is a coach. Given what I have read about this gentleman, he is a very compassionate man, a loving father and being a coach to youngsters - deeply loved by his students. And I would like to give him his privacy in as much as I can. 100% respect for this man. His recent "upheavals" came with the pronouncements

Leni Robredo is incapable of taking a position on CRITICAL national issues

By -
Image
The Philippines' "vice president" Leni Robredo is renowned for starting every statement with the phrase " ang sa akin lang naman " (in my humble opinion). As in something like this, for example... Ang sa akin lang naman, Martial Law in Mindanao won't be effective... Blah blah blah... And more of that to the same effect. What does Robredo's propose? Essentially nothing . The trouble with that is, Filipinos are all options but no roadmap . As such, Robredo mirrors the essence of the failure of the Philippine Opposition. They make a lot of noise about options (packaged as being "critical" of the administration) yet offer no pathway forward. It is hardly surprising why the Philippine Opposition led by the Yellowtards continues to fail.
