With yet another one — Uwan (Fung-wong) — coming over the next 48 hours, the Philippines had already been hit by three devastating typhoons just in the last several weeks. The most recent one, Kalmaegi had unleashed Category 5 level destruction over the Visayas reason with Cebu bearing the brunt of its violent visit. Torrential…

Typhoon Carina Exposes Lies of US military Edca Bases in the Philippines

Last July 24, Filipinos woke up to the sound of heavy and widespread rain and raging flood all over Manila. Typhoon Carina was worse than what Metro Manila suffered during Typhoon Ondoy in 2009. Mother nature appeared to disprove the claim made by President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr., in his State of the Nation Address…

Answering the threats of natural calamities in the Philippines

Posted on January 18, 2022 By The Unpopular Opinion 8 Comments on Answering the threats of natural calamities in the Philippines
Answering the threats of natural calamities in the Philippines

Roughly one month has passed since Typhoon Odette devastated various regions of the Philippines, specifically the Visayas islands. Houses, bridges, and harbors were left in ruins, while trees and electrical posts were uprooted. Lifeline accessibility was greatly hampered, with access to electricity and safe drinking water returning only after two days or more. With this…

Is Leni Robredo really SINGLE-HANDEDLY on top of the Typhoon Odette relief effort?

Is Leni Robredo really SINGLE-HANDEDLY on top of the Typhoon Odette relief effort?

If we are to believe Chief Yellowtard “economist” JC Punongbayan, presidential candidate and “vice president” Leni Robredo is the only person really on top of the relief operations surrounding the havoc wrought by Typhoon Ria (local codename “Odette”). Rappler and ABS-CBN say so, his fellow Yellowtards say so, and Robredo herself says so. So it…

Leni Robredo and Manny Pacquiao jointly EXPLOIT devastation wrought by Typhoon Odette for political gain

True to the unimaginative character of the Opposition campaign led by Yellowtard presidential candidate Leni Robredo, Typhoon Odette’s visit this weekend presented what seemed to be a grand opportunity for Robredo and her pinky team to, well, grandstand before the cameras. An added bonus was boxing champ and rival presidential candidate calling for various partisan…

Inquirer columnist Winnie Monsod MISLEADS her readers into thinking that women make better national leaders

I have nothing against women. Hell I love women. Period. I worship at the altar of the woman that is her body and soul. That’s how much I love women. The adage that you can’t beat them, can’t live without them is true; depending on how much bullshit you are willing to accept. To say…

Opposition “economists” like Winnie Monsod and @JCPunongbayan FAIL Filipinos by sowing divisiveness

Opposition “economists” like Winnie Monsod and @JCPunongbayan FAIL Filipinos by sowing divisiveness

The Opposition has been nitpicking about the GDP turning positive the other day as announced by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA). Even Sharon Cuneta weighed in. Now it’s the Professor Emeritus of the UP Economics Department who now puts in her two cents on the back of what is, by now, an all-too-familiar script —…

Yellowtard economic “experts” @JCPunongbayan, Ateneo alumna @znsuzara, and SHARON CUNETA comment on recent Ph economy data!

“Economic experts” sprouted overnight after the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) released its economic data the other day. The PSA numbers showed that the Philippines moved out of recession territory with GDP growth turning positive for the first time since its tumultuous plunge last year on the back of the first lockdown which effectively shutdown the…
