The Top 5 Achievements Of President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino

Well, here we go again with President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino trumpeting his alleged achievements in the last six years. He even goes as far as to claim that “no one can top his achievements” and both he and his followers continue to believe that he was the “best president the Philippines has ever had”….

Mar Roxas’s fatal campaign error: Selling continuity to a people who wanted change

Posted on May 2, 2016May 2, 2016 By benign0 78 Comments on Mar Roxas’s fatal campaign error: Selling continuity to a people who wanted change
Mar Roxas’s fatal campaign error: Selling continuity to a people who wanted change

It should have been obvious from the onset. Filipinos are not happy with the status quo under which they slog through life in the Philippines. Day-to-day, they are beaten down by rampant crime, imprisoned by gridlocked traffic, cowed by Islamic terrorism, and deeply embarrassed by an inability of their own armed forces to protect their…

Why is supporting the coal industry immoral?

Posted on April 22, 2016April 22, 2016 By Roy Joseph Roberto 21 Comments on Why is supporting the coal industry immoral?
Why is supporting the coal industry immoral?

“The ethical role of corporations is environmental protection. Therefore, the fossil fuel industry is immoral, and so are the government leaders who continue to support it.” The effects of climate change are comprehensive. They encompass issues on environment, public health, food security, and even national safety. And by going a little bit further, we can…

Amazing grace: Bongbong Marcos could’ve struck back during #PiliPinasDebates2016 but chose not to

Amazing grace: Bongbong Marcos could’ve struck back during #PiliPinasDebates2016 but chose not to

Imagine if vice presidential candidate Bongbong Marcos (BBM) was as abrasive and harsh as Alan Peter Cayetano. Yesterday’s vice presidential debate would have deteriorated very quickly. BBM kept his cool because nothing could be achieved by attacking back. Yet, he could if we think about it. Rene Cayetano, the father of Alan, was a partner…

The Aquino name is now synonymous with the word ‘massacre’ #BigasHindiBala

The Aquino name is now synonymous with the word ‘massacre’ #BigasHindiBala

Philippine President Benigno Simeon Aquino’s term will now go down in history as the massacre years. If Aquino supporters can blame all atrocities committed by members of the military and police on the late former President Ferdinand Marcos during the Martial Law years, then it is only fair that Filipinos blame the atrocities committed by…

Breaking Free from Poverty: A Politician-Independent Approach

Posted on February 27, 2016 By zaxx 23 Comments on Breaking Free from Poverty: A Politician-Independent Approach
Breaking Free from Poverty: A Politician-Independent Approach

If you had the liberty to choose which country or race you would be born into, would you choose the Philippines? I’d figure most Filipinos would readily dish out the name of a first-world country like Germany, Japan, Korea, or the United States, nations that have something to be intrinsically proud of, in stark contrast…

Debate shows Grace Poe (and her fans) need to stay at the Holiday Inn

Debate shows Grace Poe (and her fans) need to stay at the Holiday Inn

I think per square foot, the Philippines may very well have more tools than Ace Hardware. How else can you explain why so many people seem to have been so impressed with presidential aspirant, Sen. Grace Poe-Llamanzares’s (GPL) performance on that very non-substantive presidential debate a few days ago? Sure, she probably was the candidate…

The Philippines is worse off 30 years after the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution

Posted on February 24, 2016February 25, 2022 By Ilda 408 Comments on The Philippines is worse off 30 years after the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution
The Philippines is worse off 30 years after the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution

I’m tired of reading stories from old farts about the so-called “people power” revolution that transpired at EDSA in 1986. These old-timers hold a tradition to relive the tale over and over and this year is no different as Filipinos set out to mark the 30th anniversary of the event. The stories seem to be…
