Making It Fun in the Philippines

One time, Senator Unggoy Estrada nearly got into hot water for his dumb proposal (which he later recanted) namely banning K-Dramas . What teleseryes need is COMPETITION with other TV dramas - not more protectionism. Whether we want to admit it or not - local Philippine TV networks are KEPT ALIVE through badly dubbed imported TV dramas. A recent update is that Vagabond Seaosn 2 will film in the Philippines . I'm either surprised (or not). Suzy Bae has a couple of shows that made it big in the Philippines such as Uncontrollably Fond on GMA-7 and Dream High on ABiaS-CBN. Lee Seung Gi is remembered not just for a couple of K-Dramas such as Shining Inheritance and My Girlfriend is a Gumiho . Seung Gi is also remembered for being Gong Cha's endorser for some time. Many Filipinos probably still remember those shows. A possible cause of the delays was the Legacy Virus pandemic. I could imagine that Koreans were treated like the mutants in the X-Men: The Animated Series "Time Fugit

  It can be very easy for people to say that I'm just jealous of Maria Ressa's awards. One can say that I'm jealous of Ressa's Nobel Fish Fries . What can't be denied is that Stephen Sackur didn't really want to believe everything Ressa said. Before the Nobel Fish Fries and the Sackur Punch Award - she had her Golden Pen of Freedom award last 2018 . We have Ressa's desperate appeal to the clueless Western media . The big question is, "Did any of those awards generate jobs for Filipinos?"  I checked the #FactsFirstPH initiative which was last 2022 . However, the many members of #FactsFirstPH are really questionable like Bulatlat, the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBPC), Tarantadong Kalbo, and the IBON (IPOT) Foundation. Like wut? They had invited Human Rights Watch to help, and should I mention ABiaS-CBN among the people that Rappler is joining forces with. One can always shout, "Hooray! Maria Ressa won an award!" However

Migraine International is really getting laughable. They still honor the late Flor Contemplacion as if she's some heroine . One photo of Migraine International is that their members in HONG KONG are protesting against charter change. A funnier part of the tarpaulin says, "Wala sa dayuhan ang ikauunlad ng Bayan!" All the while they're PROTESTING IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY. This comedic moment is totally and REALLY FUNNY at epic levels. It's because Hong Kong is now PART OF CHINA.  Read about all the police brutality in Hong Kong . Hong Kong citizens are constantly in fear for their lives. I'm amazed that Migraine has chosen to ANTAGONIZE China for the nth time . The CPP-NPA could've chosen to ally with China. They could've taken over the Philippines years ago if they allied with Deng Xiaoping. The late Joma Sison could've been a vassal ruler under Deng's leadership. Instead, Joma failed to secure an alliance with China. The CPP-NPA is still a laughing

Some people still continue to use EDSA to say no to charter change, right? Some of them are the Yellowtards. This reminds me of how the Yellowtards are very similar to the Maoists. The late Noynoy Aquino is revered nearly on the same level, if not the same level, as Mao Zedong . Noynoy was cremated - the very request that Mao wanted before he died . Chances are that like Mao - Noynoy requested to be cremated before he died. However, powerful officials wanted to preserve Mao's body so he could join the likes of Vladimir Putin and Ho Chi Minh. Why didn't the Yellowtards think of that? I mean, they don't need to invite everyone due to the pandemic/ Why didn't they think of preserving Noynoy? It was understandable that Mao's process was a complicated one. The technology available to preserve Noynoy's body was more than there. The late despot Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. was preserved for years before his body was RIGHTFULLY buried next to Carlos P. Garcia. Even more baff

POLITIKO I used to read Rappler and the Manila Times . You may notice many of my articles here quote Rigoberto "Bobi" (better yet BOBO) Tiglao. I've written some scathing articles as a private citizen questioning Maria Ressa's credibility. I watched the BBC HARDtalk interview laughing when Ressa, though calm, still made a fool out of herself on the same show . I was amazed at how Sackur himself managed to hit Ressa with some rebuttals. Fortunately, Ressa kept her calm even after the show ended. I would often refer to Tiglao's articles such as articles on Liela Dilemma , whose currently out on bail, and the new spokesperson of the Liberal Party of the Philippines-Dilawan People's Army (LPP-DPA) while Angat Buhay remains as its legal front. The LPP-DPA may not be as dangerous as the CPP-NPA. However, their devotion to the late Noynoy Aquino is almost eerily similar to CPP-NPA members' devotion to the late Joma Sison. I still believe that even if Dilemma wasn

  Two years ago, this caricature of the late Joma Sison was made. I would laugh thinking about the 100 years of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as something that Joma could only dream of . Did Joma have a souring relationship with the CCP and maybe the Communist Party of Vietnam as well? It would make sense if Joma died in either Vietnam or China. Maybe, Joma could've enjoyed partying at the best bars of Ho Chi Minh City or at Shanghai in China. Instead, Joma chose the Netherlands which is pretty f***ing ironic. If hiding in North Korea wasn't a feasible option then Vietnam or China would've been a good place. Maybe, it would've been something if Xi Jinping had given permission to the CPP-NPA to pick up their beloved leader's body. Instead, Joma's body had to be shipped from the Netherlands than China.  Even after Joma's death, some CPP-NPA legal front members (such as Kayabangan Partylist, Alliance of Complaining Teachers, Lazy Filipino Students, Bayad Mu

Yellowtards really need to see the need for constitutional reform. Let's face it that would've the Philippines been a Parliament - Atty. Leni Loud Robredo and company would've been the Opposition by now . Instead, they kept opposing the idea of the Philippines going parliamentary because of the reign of the late Emperor Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. Now, how do they expect to hold the former crown prince turned president, Bobong Marcos , accountable, if the Philippines has NO REAL DEFINED OPPOSITION? Even worse, they keep saying constitutional reform is useless if you have leaders like the late Noynoy Aquino. Maybe, Get Real Philippines was beating up Noynoy too hard since bar none, no one can match Marcos in destroying the Philippines.  However, the Yellowtards still continue to use Noynoy as a prime example of why constitutional reform (which they prefer to use the term, Cha Cha) or even some amendments are unnecessary.  It's almost like the 1987 Constitution of the Philipp
