What a Duterte-led ‘people power’ rally might be like

What a Duterte-led ‘people power’ rally might be like

Funny the way things turn out. Time was when supporters of politicians like current Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III and his ilk in what is now known as the “Yellow Mob” used to be quick to draw upon the notion that a “people power” show-of-force could pretty much over-rule any product of the…

Who is better, Rody Duterte or Mar Roxas?

Who is better, Rody Duterte or Mar Roxas?

When will we find out nga ba? All I see are the rabid supporters of one camp trolling the other. The only ammo I see flying are lame globs of mud being flung from one side of the fence to the other? Nakaka-bobo! But then, hey, this is the Philippine electorate we are talking about,…

The 2016 Official Charles Englund Political Campaign Manual

Posted on December 13, 2015December 13, 2015 By Charles Englund 8 Comments on The 2016 Official Charles Englund Political Campaign Manual
The 2016 Official Charles Englund Political Campaign Manual

Free political campaign advice from the Charles Englund Foundation (CEF): In the curious morass that is the Filipino collective psyche, a leader must never volunteer or present himself for political office, more so, not for the (cue trumpets) “highest office in the land” (or what people in other countries simply call, the presidency). To present…

Euthanasia for the Sick Man of Asia

Euthanasia for the Sick Man of Asia

It’s been a slow and agonizing wasting away with the current crop of incompetent and corrupt empathy-devoid bozos that fill the political arena here in the country widely known as the Sick Man of Asia. This decaying remittance-transfusion-sustained corpse of a society/economy, the semblance of life being just the wiggling movement of infesting maggots under…

How The Negative Reaction To “Fast Forward Sa Tuwid Na Daan” Gives Me Hope

Ladies and gentlemen, before I begin, I would first like to share with you something I’ve read from a book about the Nazi occupation of Denmark. I don’t remember the title nor the author of the book and I don’t exactly remember all the details of the scene I’m about to describe. However, I will…

3 Rules Of Chivalry In The Modern Age

I’m writing this article in response to the recent incident where a woman bashed a guy over the internet because he didn’t give her his seat when they were on a train. Now the woman did apologize later on which I think was good on her but I don’t think this is the only time…

Which 2016 Candidate Will Repeal the Lina Law on Informal Settlers?

As part of an ongoing series that focuses on issues rather than personalities for the 2016 Philippine General Elections, this short essay zeroes in on one of the country’s most chronic problems. Among other things, the lack of rural development, as well as the constant attraction of urban city life, have increased the population of…

Trump and Duterte: The rise of hugely-popular demagogues in America and its Philippine colony

It is hardly surprising that demagogues have come to dominate national Americana politics on both sides of the globe. Funny enough, two such popular demagogues happen to be making waves on the East and West both in bastions of American values — in the United States itself where anti-immigrant Republican candidate Donald Trump is ruling…
