Reflections after three weeks of working from home full time

Posted on April 10, 2020 By benign0 2 Comments on Reflections after three weeks of working from home full time
Reflections after three weeks of working from home full time

Chel Diokno is endangering Filipino lives by undermining government efforts to stop COVID-19

Opposition “thought leaders” are currently at arms because of what they perceive to be a “lambasting” that “human rights” lawyer and failed 2019 elections candidate Chel Diokno copped from President Rodrigo Duterte the other night. Indeed, Duterte spoke angrily about Diokno in his last press conference after the latter continued to issue statements seemingly meant…

COVID-19 further highlights how important it is for the Philippines to be INDEPENDENT

One thing the COVID-19 pandemic is teaching the world is that it is important for communities, both at local and at national levels, to be self sufficient.

A Tale of Three Viruses: How Smallpox, the 1918 ‘Spanish’ Flu, and COVID-19 Changed the World

The history of human civilization is riddled with course-changing epochs in world history related to the transmission of pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses.

Philippine “President” Leni Robredo in a time of pandemic

As the COVID-19 pandemic plays out globally, the main drive of the Philippine Oppositions is not to help Filipinos deal with the crisis together.

Panic over COVID-19 being kicked up by the Yellowtards is starting to wear thin

The panic being kicked up around the coronavirus outbreak is beginning to get tiresome. Unfortunately for Filipinos, the COVID-19 scare is the latest weaponised outrage fad the Yellowtard-led Opposition is clinging onto to bolster their demonisation campaign against the government of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. While other societies unite to fight the spread of this…
