Another Aquino Legacy: The Death of Manila Bay Reclamation By Religion and Pseudo-Environmentalism?

Posted on August 12, 2014 By P. Farol 14 Comments on Another Aquino Legacy: The Death of Manila Bay Reclamation By Religion and Pseudo-Environmentalism?
Another Aquino Legacy: The Death of Manila Bay Reclamation By Religion and Pseudo-Environmentalism?

A Fitting Testament To Myopic, Parochial, and Political Economy Based National Planning According to the grape vine, all plans to add to or expand the reclaimed area in Manila Bay seems to be ‘dead in the water’ — literally. I didn’t believe the pronouncements of the demise of any and all Manila Bay reclamation projects…

Filipinos see a better future in foreign war zones than in the Philippines

Filipinos see a better future in foreign war zones than in the Philippines

You know a country has really sunk to an unprecedented depth of wretchedness when its own citizens would prefer to remain in a war zone over taking their chances on a return to the “safety” of their homeland. Such is what describes the rather embarrassing situation in the Philippine government’s efforts to repatriate up to…

7 reasons why PNoy’s Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) is wrong

7 reasons why PNoy’s Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) is wrong

During his fifth State of the Nation Address, President BS Aquino appeared frustrated at having to keep defending his Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) to the Filipino people. At some point during his speech, he became flustered and tried to fight back his tears. A lot of those who witnessed him being emotional felt sorry for…

PNoy’s “gentler” 5th SONA fails to appease his critics

Is Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino finally maturing? A lot of people have noted that his tone during his fifth State of the Nation Address (SONA) was less combative compared to his previous four SONAs. Some people like former Congressman and journalist Teddy Boy Locsin Jr., who is also an occasional critic of the…

What we learned from PNoy’s 5th State of the Nation Address

I stand corrected. Last night I issued this rather glib tweet: “So what do we at GRP do now? We predicted EXACTLY what #PNoy was gonna say in #SONA2014. #NoChallenge”. The fact is, Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III, in the State of the Nation Address (SONA) he delivered before Congress yesterday, did leave…

PNoy’s speech should be shut down the minute he attacks the Supreme Court #SONA2014

PNoy’s speech should be shut down the minute he attacks the Supreme Court #SONA2014

What further use to Filipinos is a president who had all but painted himself into a corner? That is essentially the way Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III will come across to the public today when he delivers his State of the Nation Address (SONA) to joint sessions of Philippine Congress. Rather than see…

Will PNoy surprise us for a change in his 5th State of the Nation Address #SONA2014 speech?

One thing we can credit to Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III is the consistency and predictability of his speeches. As such, most people can easily guess now what the President will be saying in his fifth State of the Nation Address (SONA) to be delivered to Congress on Monday July 28, 2014. There…

‘Good faith’ was the farthest from the mind of BS Aquino when he came up with the #DAP!

‘Good faith’ was the farthest from the mind of BS Aquino when he came up with the #DAP!

On one hand, Aquino apologists like to distract public opinion away from the “legalese” surrounding the debate around the manner with which the President used the DAP in order to highlight the nebulous notion of ‘good faith’. But then there is another camp (albeit the more intellectually-diligent amongst them) that invoke aspects of the law…
