Putting The Cart Before The Horse: A Serious Pinoy Problem

Putting The Cart Before The Horse: A Serious Pinoy Problem

When I read into history, I can’t help but notice that the Philippines has so little to show when it comes to leaving a mark on the world at large. I mean sure, we have people like Manny Pacquiao, Leah Salonga and quite a few other individuals who are of some worth on a global…

Filipinos would rather be butthurt about the past than gung-ho about the future

Filipinos would rather be butthurt about the past than gung-ho about the future

The intellectual DNA of Philippine society is flawed at its most fundamental level. The trouble with the approach to thinking in the Philippines is, more often than not, this activity is retrospective rather than prospective in nature. The word BUTTHURT encapsulates that society-wide malaise. And the sixth and last State of the Nation Address (SONA)…

To get to the top, Filipinos need to benchmark themselves against the highest standards

Whether we are talking of economic policy, foreign policy, business, education, culture, arts, or what have you, setting a high standard is most important. The global village shows no mercy to the mediocre — it may spend some times to talk of, and to give aid to such countries, but that is only so that…

A Culture Of Self-Importance: Another Sign Of Immaturity In The SONA

So I’ve said what I needed to say about President Aquino and how immature I think he is. I also remember telling you guys about the inherent immaturity in Pinoy culture itself. However, now that I have time to think about all of it, I come to realize that one of the worst products of…

President Aquino’s Sixth And Final SONA: Just Another Sign Of Pinoy Immaturity

President Aquino’s Sixth And Final SONA: Just Another Sign Of Pinoy Immaturity

Okay, President Aquino’s fifth and final SONA is over, thank goodness. Hopefully, we won’t have to listen to any more of his lies in the next few months leading up to the 2016 presidential election, the day when we can finally give the guy the boot for good. However, I tend to think that his…

A Sunday Rant About Organized Religion

A Sunday Rant About Organized Religion

It’s a Sunday, I know. For many Christian denominations, Sunday is a day of rest. A day that should be spent with one’s family. However, with stuff that’s been happening as of late, I think I need to speak up again. Do take note that I do hold religious beliefs and would prefer to enjoy my Sunday…

The Possibility of a Schism in the Iglesia Ni Cristo: Was It Inevitable?

To be honest, while I’ve never really been fond of the Iglesia ni Cristo, I have always found some measure of appreciation for their dedication. With their well-designed places of worship to the disciplined approach its members have always had to their day-to-day living, I have always wondered what the Philippines could be like if…

Ang Kakulangan ng Respeto sa Lipunang Pilipino

Ang Kakulangan ng Respeto sa Lipunang Pilipino

This is a translation and expansion of this previous article… Hindi na talaga kagulat-gulat kung maraming ibang lahi na walang respeto para sa mga Pilipino. Kung hindi ninyo nakakalimutan, sa bansa ng Greece, ang tingin lang sa atin nila doon ay mga katulong tayo. Hindi rin natin maitatanggi na merong mga bansa na ang tingin lang…
