Palawan’s Underground River: Winner by Hive-Mind

Posted on November 21, 2011 By MidwayHaven 10 Comments on Palawan’s Underground River: Winner by Hive-Mind
Palawan’s Underground River: Winner by Hive-Mind

When I heard that the Puerto Princesa Underground River was included in the provisional listing of the New 7 Wonders of Nature, the first thing that came into my mind was the Borg. In the Star Trek science fiction series primarily made for television, the Borg were a villainous cybernetic race with one mind and…

Randy David’s views on Gloria Arroyo arrest seem personal

Posted on November 21, 2011 By benign0 29 Comments on Randy David’s views on Gloria Arroyo arrest seem personal
Randy David’s views on Gloria Arroyo arrest seem personal

Indeed, as Inquirer.net columnist Randy David opined in his 19th November 2011 article, perhaps during her time, former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo “deftly manipulated the legal system” to suit her agenda. He was, of course, referring to the “midnight appointment” of key justices in the Philippines’ Supreme Court who are supposedly loyal to her and, as…

Moving to the next circus act: COMELEC finally filing charges against Arroyo

Posted on November 18, 2011November 18, 2011 By benign0 18 Comments on Moving to the next circus act: COMELEC finally filing charges against Arroyo
Moving to the next circus act: COMELEC finally filing charges against Arroyo

It gets interesting for us who chronicle Pinoy dysfunction now that the Philippines’ Commission on Elections (COMELEC) have approved the filing of electoral fraud charges against former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA). After many years of hearsay reporting from the Philippine Media and haka haka “debate” among the chattering classes of the self-described Philippine “civil society”,…

PNoy and his staff: Is ignoring the law their prerogative?

Posted on November 16, 2011October 2, 2013 By Ilda 137 Comments on PNoy and his staff: Is ignoring the law their prerogative?
PNoy and his staff: Is ignoring the law their prerogative?

Another Aquino it seems is turning out to be the worst President in the history of the Philippines. No other President has so completely polarised the nation, blatantly violated human rights, and consistently disrespected the Supreme Court as much as President Noynoy Aquino (PNoy) had so far. Worse, no other President has ignored what is…

Gloria Arroyo is doing everything by the book and so should Malacañang @jimparedes @gangbadoy

Gloria Arroyo is doing everything by the book and so should Malacañang @jimparedes @gangbadoy

Now it’s getting interesting (as it does for people like me who’ve made it a career to point out why the Philippines persists as such a chronic basketcase). For people seeing it from the outside who are in the best position to filter out the noise surrounding this “issue”, the situation now is quite simple……

Arroyo TRO vs travel ban: Fact is Noynoy and his henchmen were outsmarted yet again @jimparedes @gangbadoy

Arroyo TRO vs travel ban: Fact is Noynoy and his henchmen were outsmarted yet again @jimparedes @gangbadoy

This is the man and the administration all these bozos campaigned for. Philippine President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III let an entire year pass without filing a formal legal case against the lady he’s taken pains to demonise since 2009. So now the Yellow mob are relying on lame humour to anesthetize themselves as they watch…

The Dominican Republic dragged into the latest Aquino Government gaffe

The Dominican Republic dragged into the latest Aquino Government gaffe

This is looking to be another of those astounding gaffes that the government of Philippine President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III has become world-renowned for since taking power in July, 2010. In recent months, the lastest “issue” making the rounds of the chattering classes is the travel ban slapped by Malacañang on former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo…

Why Baron Buchokoy represents every media exec’s worst nightmare AND sweetest dreams

Why Baron Buchokoy represents every media exec’s worst nightmare AND sweetest dreams

The last several days saw a frenzy of commentary and speculation around the video Aquino-Cojuangcos: Facts They Don’t Want You To Know (which we shall refer to as just Facts when citing it henceforth) where some revealing and unflattering information about the feudal clans of the Aquinos and Cojuangcos currently ruling the Philippines in tandem…
