What does the Filipino want?

Posted on January 21, 2013August 22, 2013 By FallenAngel 126 Comments on What does the Filipino want?
What does the Filipino want?

The Filipino desperately declares to the rest of the world that he is the best among the lot, yet the current political, economic, and social states of his country, the mannerisms of his people, and the quality of his thinking prove otherwise. What does the Filipino want? The Filipino claims that being a colony for…

President Noynoy Aquino and opponents talk dirty while issues plaguing nation remain unresolved

President Noynoy Aquino and opponents talk dirty while issues plaguing nation remain unresolved

It’s campaign season again in the Philippines. Senatorial and congressional candidates are gearing up for the big day in May this year. The Filipino people can expect more mudslinging among candidates and less talk about policies between now and Election Day. Those who still bother with what some say is a farce activity will be…

Philippine elections 2013: Another spectacle starring Stupid

Philippine elections 2013: Another spectacle starring Stupid

Again, election fever is in the air. Intrigue sloshes across the chattering classes who exchange factoids on the latest politically-motivated circus — the Gwen Garcia spectacle in Cebu, the Miriam vs Johnny imbroglio in the Senate, and the Aga Muhlach vs the whole system impasse in Bicol among others. What is the common denominator amongst…

Lance Armstrong Has Some Noynoy In Him

“Oh boy! Now I’ve heard it all… Because Soames muscled his way into authority, he’s a good guy, huh? Pal, Hitler was the “boss” of Germany, remember? And there was Genghis Khan, Nero… Throughout history, cheap punks have made themselves leaders! Regardless of their titles, they were still cheap punks!”— Green Arrow, Green Arrow /…

Aga Muhlach possibly scarred for life if barred from running for office

Aga Muhlach possibly scarred for life if barred from running for office

My question is: Why does Aga Muhlach want to run for Congress to begin with? What’s in it for him? Why does he want to become a politician so badly that he’d force the highly-debatable issue of his residency in Camarines Sur, the province he wants to “represent” as a lawmaker in the House of…

Who are behind DMT Ice Angels who own 17 percent of Rappler?

Indeed, it’s been one of Philippine Media’s greatest non-mysteries: the question of who owns “social news network” (pa)hipster news site Rappler.com. According to Rappler CEO Maria Ressa, all the answers to that question are in their sanitised About page which features a list of its illustrious Board members. But ever since a quick-and-dirty exposé (actually,…

Philippine Senate turns into an expensive cockpit as Enrile and Santiago continue to lock horns

Philippine Senate turns into an expensive cockpit as Enrile and Santiago continue to lock horns

It used to be that the shady world of high-level corruption among politicians was an opaque black box where public funds (taxpayers’ money) went in one end and vacuous political rhetoric and infrastructural mirages went out the other. Nowadays, that unspoken pact amongst crooks has steadily unraveled before the public eye. It started with that…

Memories of a Civil War

Memories of a Civil War

Kirk was already in late-twenties when he got into the mainstream of the so-called national democratic movement initiated by Jose Maria Sison. From the ranks of mass activists, he was elevated to candidate membership in the Communist Party of the Philippines and after a few months in that status became full-fledged party member. The chaos…
