US propaganda continues to be parroted by Rappler “thought leaders”

It’s important to the Americans that the Duterte brand in Philippine politics be destroyed since it advocates for an independent foreign policy. Witness how we have become the outlier in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) community. Among the original founding members, we are only ahead of Cambodia and Laos while Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia,…

An entire generation of young Filipinos are growing up to be liabilities

Posted on June 29, 2024 By benign0 7 Comments on An entire generation of young Filipinos are growing up to be liabilities
An entire generation of young Filipinos are growing up to be liabilities

Certain “activists” take exception to a country’s people being referred to as “capital” to “invest in” in order to “get returns from”. This is in reference to the recently-published World Bank Philippines Human Capital Review report where some pretty damning facts about the collective ability of the Filipino people to compete in a rapidly-evolving world…

50% of Filipinos stunted at childhood in the 1980s could be why the Philippines is so intellectually-bankrupt today!

50% of Filipinos stunted at childhood in the 1980s could be why the Philippines is so intellectually-bankrupt today!

For many of the world’s richest — or even emerging — economies, the biggest threat to continued prosperity is a rapidly aging and, in the worst cases, declining populations. The effect of wealth and better education on fertility has long been known. As people get better-educated, enjoy a greater variety of lifestyle options, and gain…

The Philippines needs to reevaluate its blind allegiance to the West

The Philippines needs to reevaluate its blind allegiance to the West

Perhaps it is time for the Philippines — and the rest of the “free world” — to reevaluate their regard for Western European civilisation’s presumed leadership in all that is supposedly “good”. Recent events have seen a growing rot within the core of these former crusaders. The “tolerance” towards deviant ideas that they packaged as…

The Philippines cannot progress without an intelligent civil service

The Philippines cannot progress without an intelligent civil service

Nothing is more confronting than statistical facts. Today’s Inquirer op-ed, “Dismal passing rate”, paints a sobering picture of the Philippines’ brains trust — perhaps an oxymoronic term to use considering that it is anything but. The Inquirer Editor in essence issues an indictment on the ability of the Philippines to sustainably implement good governance and,…

All Filipino “revolutions” were co-opted by greedy and power-hungry oligarchs

All Filipino “revolutions” were co-opted by greedy and power-hungry oligarchs

China had the opportunity to colonize most of Southeast Asia if they wanted to. Did they do it? Nope. The Chinese weren’t colonial in their mindset and this is mirrored by their political and social structures during the time of the emperors. It was the Japanese who had plans to compete with the Western powers….

Here’s What’s Going On Up At Boracay’s Mt. Luho and It’s Not What You Were Told

In a smallish Facebook Group called Boracay Island News, a post addressed to the Boracay Community by a certain Victor Jeffery made the rounds asking “What’s going on up at Mt. Luho”.  It reads: Angry property disputes have started again at several locations in the Mt Luho area despite many court cases over the past…

Agriculture continues to be BURIED by the Philippines’ enormous and rapidly-growing population

Agriculture continues to be BURIED by the Philippines’ enormous and rapidly-growing population

Social justice versus food security. This is what it boils down to now. In his PhilSTAR piece “Subsistence”, Alex Magno observes… Our rice production is immune to all the subsidies and credit programs organized by government. It will continue to be inefficient unless we consolidate and industrialize our farmlands. This sector remains trapped in subsistence…
