The Joke Continues

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008

As we have been out for quite sometime due to personal matters but here we are again and back for more lively and juicy topics. First of all we want to greet everyone a very prosperous New Year ahead. Second we wanted to wish all the Overseas Filipino Communities the best of 2008.

Last article we took was the joke of Philippine Politics and today we would further that topic by taking up some recent events of the country. This topic is about the OMB or the Optical Media Board chaired by Mr. Edu Manzano, a showbiz personality and the host of the popular game show Pilipinas Game Ka Na Ba. Mr. Manzano or Chairman Edu has done wonderful things to the people of the country through his shows and contributions and is contiuously doing so through his works. Mabuhay ka Edu.

Sometime ago there was a rotten exploit by Mr. Chairman of illegal activities concerning the reproduction and sale of pirated discs which he told a senator and a showbiz personality himself Senator Ramon”Bong” Revilla. Unfortunately the said senator has acted ahead of time concerning the raid of a place which did not prosper. The surprising thing is that the senator has media and photographers swarming his Ahead of Time Act. This is such a shame and selfish act coming from a senator of the Philippines so desperately looking for more achievements and “POGI POINTS“. Well, to the dumb and corrupt afficionados of the Philippines it might be nothing but for us here in the US its a showboat. Puros kaplastikan ang pinapakita nitong ating senador na ito. Unfortunately the senate has sided with this SOB in stopping the funds for the OMB.

Well Mr. Bong Revilla, we know that Mr. Manzano is doing his job so let him do it properly. What can we say is the Filipino American community here in Maryland will do its very best to support the people who really helps the country regardless of politics. You have lost the credibility from us. No pogi points for you and we will see to it and in our capacity that we will continuously support the people who helps the Philippines. Tama na ang plastikan and its time for our country to move to a place of respect and development towards the betterment of the Filipino people.

Philippine Politics is a Joke

Sunday, October 21st, 2007

Traditional politicians, lawyers, rich jerk dynasties, actors and actresses, officers of the police and armed forces dominate the political scene. These people comprises the bulk of the political arena that makes the face of the Philippines a laughing stock. To give credit to those whom really performs well, the population knows who’s who. Some are really hard working and true to their intentions to help the country to recover from the endless corrupt system and the path of economic recovery.

What the country needs are fresh vizionalized people that are capable of providing Grade A legislations regardless of party politics. We need people that can stand up and express their views openly without whispers in the ear from corrupt businessmen. We need people who genuinely don’t need the prosperity of the pockets. It may be difficult to find persons like this these days but it is definitely worth the shot. It might be like finding some needles in the haystack but we have to do it. Other countries are moving on and moving on fast and its high time to get even to the rear of the bus seat. Disciplined people are what we need. The congress, senate, government has more than enough high educated entree’s and they are fully camouflaged painted that can eat you in whole once the moon has surfaced in the sky.

Who are the people we need to turn the stakes around for the better ? There are some students, overseas contract workers, housewives, teachers, nurses, local civic leaders. These are in short the common people who’s daily lives are experiencing hardships or making ends meet. We need to hear from them and not from the people who drive SUV’s or expensive cars that have a tinted window shield. Let their voices be heard and jot down their ideas.
