Maria Ressa is being the quintessential ARROGANT American

Maria Ressa is being the quintessential ARROGANT American

Who does she think she is? It seems Rappler CEO Maria Ressa believes (1) she is above Philippine law, (2) that she can simply reframe several charges against her into a single “press freedom” crusade, and (3) that engaging the services of an “intrnational human rights lawyer” will make her position before any Philippine court…

Duterte’s critics should get an award for being inconsistent

Posted on November 3, 2017November 3, 2017 By Ilda 2 Comments on Duterte’s critics should get an award for being inconsistent
Duterte’s critics should get an award for being inconsistent

The Philippine Opposition, which consist mainly of the Liberal Party, its supporters, and allies, deserve an award. They deserve an award for trying. They are trying hard to paint a picture that the country is all “doom and gloom” under President Rodrigo Duterte. They are also trying hard to paint themselves as “victims” of oppression….

In just 6 years, Noynoy Aquino’s record of failure is now worse than all of the Marcos years

Posted on October 14, 2015October 14, 2015 By Ilda 488 Comments on In just 6 years, Noynoy Aquino’s record of failure is now worse than all of the Marcos years
In just 6 years, Noynoy Aquino’s record of failure is now worse than all of the Marcos years

Filipinos who can’t stop talking about the “horrors” of the Martial Law years under the late former President Ferdinand Marcos are starting to come across as hopeless and desperate for attention. While the atrocities against the victims should be condemned, their cases were already brought to court and won compensation. It is now time to…

It’s time for the Philippines to be ruled with discipline and intelligence!

It’s time for the Philippines to be ruled with discipline and intelligence!

Filipinos are coming to terms with the political reality underlying the presidential race today. Following the EDSA “revolution” in 1986, the pendulum had swung too far out the side of ultra-representative “democracy” in the Philippines. As a result, the deeply disturbing reality of the true nature of the way Filipinos have squandered their “freedom” has…

The #Philippines continues to be an epic fail as a naive player in global politics and diplomacy

The #Philippines continues to be an epic fail as a naive player in global politics and diplomacy

While Filipinos deliberate amongst themselves over how “wise” or “unwise” it is to consider war against Islamic terrorists as even just an option to seriously consider, their friendly neighbour China has reportedly been beavering away in the islands of the West Philippine Sea building structures the size of Henry Sy’s Mall of Asia on these…

Amal Alamuddin Clooney can help expose the Aquino government’s human rights abuses

International human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin Clooney has confirmed what some of us have been saying all along – that former President and Congresswoman Gloria Arroyo‘s human rights are being violated by the Philippine government under the leadership of President Benigno Simeon (BS) Aquino. As early as 2011, concerned individuals have already highlighted how the…

Foreign media laud PNoy’s false achievements as Filipinos set to vote for the ‘lesser evil’ again in 2016

Foreign media laud PNoy’s false achievements as Filipinos set to vote for the ‘lesser evil’ again in 2016

I find it quite laughable that a certain Daniel Wagner, CEO of a certain Country Risk Solutions would, on one hand, observe how the Philippines has long been held back by a people that “didn’t demand enough of themselves, or of their government” and sustains a habit of accepting “a low common denominator of performance”…

Amal Alamuddin: brilliant lawyering and Hollywood star power may help Arroyo’s plight

Self-proclaimed “Oprah Winfrey of the Philippines” and presidential sister Kris Aquino may be given a run for the money if reports that brilliant international human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin will take up the case of former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (GMA). Arroyo is currently detained on charges of plunder and has remained under hospital arrest…
