Why are Filipinos reluctant to call wrongdoing out?

Posted on September 30, 2018October 1, 2018 By FallenAngel 18 Comments on Why are Filipinos reluctant to call wrongdoing out?
Why are Filipinos reluctant to call wrongdoing out?

Well, to be more specific, they are reluctant to call out, on the spot, wrongdoing with strangers, and especially with persons of higher social rank, and persons of authority. When it comes to a person of lower social rank – perceived or real – than themselves, quite a few Filipinos won’t hesitate to give a…

#ABSCBNBall2018 exhibits all that is wrong about the way Philippine showbiz portrays “class”

#ABSCBNBall2018 exhibits all that is wrong about the way Philippine showbiz portrays “class”

I don’t know about everyone else but I think that whole “fashionista” show-and-tell last night dubbed the ABS-CBN Ball was damn tacky. I mean, there’s a fine line between edgy and plain old trying hard. These after all are showbiz types — kiddies dressed under the guidance of showbiz costume designers who shape the caricatures…

The fact that the Opposition are preparing for the 2019 elections means democracy is not “dead”!

The fact that the Opposition are preparing for the 2019 elections means democracy is not “dead”!

It isn’t much of a preparation as there is neither vision nor platform to give meaning to their pitch to the Filipino voter. The fact, however, that the Philippine Opposition led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) are now on full campaign mode in the lead up to the 2019 elections exhibits their grudging…

Excitement over Panda Express arrival exhibits the power of brands over Filipino consumers

Over the last several days, social media’s been abuzz over the coming of Chinese food restaurant chain Panda Express. Funny that as it comes in the middle of all the bad press businesses are getting over their employment practices. Contractualization is now a dirty word thanks to the SJWs (social justice warriors). Beyond the rhetoric…

Should Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte resign?

Posted on September 28, 2018 By benign0 7 Comments on Should Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte resign?
Should Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte resign?

But of course the Philippine Opposition thinks so. Led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards), the Opposition has done nothing but call for the end of the Duterte administration. But really, in the bigger scheme of things, is the resignation of the president really that big a deal? The bigger question the Yellowtards fail…

Posted on September 27, 2018 By Hector Gamboa 31 Comments on Boycotting Delimondo is the Answer to Historical Revisionism?
Boycotting Delimondo is the Answer to Historical Revisionism?

Yellows and commies have been bombarding social media in the Philippines lately with calls for a boycott on the popular corned beef Delimondo. This call for a boycott on the product arose in the aftermath of the Bongbong Marcos – Juan Ponce Enrile (JPE) tête-à-tête discussing what happened during the Martial Law period in the…

Trixie Cruz Angeles and her fake news page Metro Manila Daily News

It’s great to see Trixie Cruz Angeles walking in the sun these days and mixing it up like a beast in the social media jungle. Her Facebook page’s stats are at full gallop because last time I checked, it had more followers than “likes” and it seems the engagement in each one of her posts…

Gogs Breaks Down A Song: My Only Love

Gogs Breaks Down A Song: My Only Love

  There are some of us that think new music is irrelevant. Others find the first group,  dinosaurs since they don’t see the value of hip hop gangsters and boy bands.  Sorry to the younger generation if I prefer my music with notes and musicians.   I wrote a bit on how I developed my taste…
