The Philippines’ “Bucket List” – a vision for a better country

Posted on June 26, 2021June 26, 2021 By PulbuRonn 5 Comments on The Philippines’ “Bucket List” – a vision for a better country
The Philippines’ “Bucket List” – a vision for a better country

Before we get into the meat of this post, I think an explanation on the term “bucket list” is owed towards those out of the loop. A bucket list is a list of activities a person intends to do before they die or, idiomatically speaking, before they “kick the bucket.” This is not to say…

Senate Defense Committee under Ping Lacson pushing bills to upgrade AFP/PNP benefits, follows thru on Duterte promises

While the Opposition continues to push the government for fiscal stimulus and social amelioration funds for Filipinos most affected by the pandemic, the same individuals appear to be indifferent to the looming fiscal crisis brought about by the huge deficit in the pension fund of police, military and other uniformed government personnel. The present shortfall…

Would a Ping Lacson – Tito Sotto tandem for 2022 win if Inday Sara Duterte does not run for president?

Would a Ping Lacson – Tito Sotto tandem for 2022 win if Inday Sara Duterte does not run for president?

It was then Col. Gringo Honasan who first shot to fame post-Marcos in 1986 because Lacson found himself on the wrong side of the political divide in the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) during the coup d’etat against then President Ferdinand “Apo Lakay” Marcos. Lacson joined the Philippine Constabulary (PC) after graduation from the…

Angel Locsin #CommunityPantry debacle highlights health and safety hazards posed by unregulated community initiatives

Angel Locsin #CommunityPantry debacle highlights health and safety hazards posed by unregulated community initiatives

Just a few days ago in a previous article, I posed the question: Are community pantries deadly stampedes waiting to happen? Only time will tell. That was just four days ago — not much time for what looked to be an implausible risk at the time to become a real and serious concern. ABS-CBN starlet…

UP officials could be criminally liable for obstructing police investigations or harbouring terrorists

Posted on January 20, 2021January 20, 2021 By benign0 3 Comments on UP officials could be criminally liable for obstructing police investigations or harbouring terrorists
UP officials could be criminally liable for obstructing police investigations or harbouring terrorists

Aren’t all Filipinos subject to laws regarding obstruction of police investigations? This means any “accord” that gives special treatment to officials of the University of the Philippines (UP) by giving them power to deny police access to their jurisdiction is unlawful by nature. Philippine law is quite clear about what constitutes obstruction of justice. Presidential…

Making sense of Jonel Nuezca’s senseless killing of Sonya and Frank Anthony Gregorio

Making sense of Jonel Nuezca’s senseless killing of Sonya and Frank Anthony Gregorio

It is easy to watch a viral video of the most recent police “killing” then jump into a “conclusion” that the Philippine police are “evil” and then go off to launch a whole media circus around it and propagate the latest outrage fad. The incident that left Sonya Gregorio and her son Frank Anthony Gregorio…

Philippine Opposition bent on POLITICISING the Jonel Nuezca shooting incident

Posted on December 21, 2020 By benign0 6 Comments on Philippine Opposition bent on POLITICISING the Jonel Nuezca shooting incident
Philippine Opposition bent on POLITICISING the Jonel Nuezca shooting incident

As expected, the Opposition led by the Yellowtards (the block within it loyal to the Aquino-Cojuangco clan) and the communists are seizing the opportunity to politicise the shooting incident that left Sonya and Frank Anthony Gregorio dead. The dishonest logic that underpins this politicisation campaign is all-too-familiar: (1) put up this isolated incident as sufficient…

The Philippines needs a strong police and army more than ever

Posted on August 27, 2020 By benign0 11 Comments on The Philippines needs a strong police and army more than ever
The Philippines needs a strong police and army more than ever

Terrorists are getting bolder as it becomes ever more pointedly evident that the Opposition (specifically its leading blocs, the communists and the Yellowtards) regard demonisation of the police and the military as cornerstones of their sick ideologies. Indeed, Filipinos have long suspected strong links between the Yellowtards (the bloc of rabid partisans loyal to the…
