Making It Fun in the Philippines

The League of Filipino Students ahem LAZY FILIPINO STUDENTS (LFS) is now calling for donations for the recent Taal volcano eruption. I remembered one time when the volcano erupted in 2020 before the start of COVID-19's peak . The whole move was politicized by Pignoy Ako Blog . I wouldn't be surprised if Jover Laurio is going to align herself with the members of the Lazy Filipino Students. There's still  the possibility that Pignoy Ako Blog is a communist legal front . Jover's actions such as sending GCash to Renato Reyes Jr. of Bayad Muna and aligning herself with youth leader Sarah Jane Elgago of Kayabangan Partylist might prove that she's indeed in bed with the reds . There's really the risk of donating money to leftist organizations like Lazy Filipino Students, Kayabangan Partylist, and Bayad Muna. These are all CPP-NPA LEGAL FRONTS. Donating to Lazy Filipino Students means supporting a group of lazy moochers who show their ignorance with economics . Preside...

I'm amazed that pasaway "thought leaders" like Jover Laurio of Pignoy Ako Blog and Gerry Cacanindin are now overbloating both Maria Leonor "Leni Loud" Gerona Robredo and Maria Angelita Ressa's recent selfie a few days ago. I could remember writing about why we shouldn't even bother to recall Ressa's Nobel Peace Prize ONE BIT . I had a good laugh watching Ressa's interview on BBC HARDtalk when Stephen Sackur launched several jabs against her arguments . Now, Ressa's alliance with Leni Loud makes me think that hopefully (and I mean it) that Leni Loud herself will be the next Nobel Peace Prize awardee . Before that, Ressa needs to get nominated for a Nobel Prize in physics because of her amazing claim concerning 4,000 vehicles in Bicol .  I think everything regarding Ressa and the Kakampinks is becoming a series of self-defeating arguments. Ressa winning the Nobel Peace Prize is a self-defeating argument. The reason is that Rappler once had an a...

Here's another news that skipped me some time ago. It's been reported by Panay News that there are Negros Farmers that demand to stop sugar importation as well as other agricultural products . It was in Bacolod City which is the sugar capital of the Philippines. What's even more stupid is that the groups also asked for SUBSIDY OF PRODUCTION, CHEAP FERTILIZER AND FARM INPUTS, FREE IRRIGATION, SUBSIDIZING MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT, and marketing support. This is really nothing more than ECONOMIC IGNORANCE. It's pretty much like the demand for the prices of palay to have a price increase while the finished product has a lower price . If the cost of production is going to be higher then the finished product will have to sell higher. Again, it's just plain ECONOMIC IGNORANCE on the part of these NGOs demanding protectionism as well as a government subsidy. I'm amazed at how often the late Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. is demonized. What seems to be hardly mentioned is how th...

It's near election time, again, isn't it? Just a few more days and elections are around the corner. May 9 happens to be the date of the elections. However, the trend has always been the same ever since the 1987 Constitution - people LOVE to get fooled. People have been under a wrong definition of democracy (that is, winner takes all politics) which is defined by popularity-based politics. Things seemed to go well after Fidel V. Ramos' administration. However, we've had a lot of problems even after that such as Filipino voters love to vote for inept candidates. People get into the legislative body because they're famous such as how Robert Jaworski and Jinggoy Estrada got into politics for their fame. I guess that's why some want to be celebrities - it's so they can enter politics!  We've had one election after the other. One can always say that the late Noynoy Aquino left an economic mark. However, Noynoy was surrounded by nincompoops like the late Stinky...

The MRT rehabilitation is now closing as President Rodrigo R. Duterte's term is coming to an end . I was wondering was the case of the MRT wreck much like Boeing? I decided to watch the documentary Downfall: The Case Against Boeing. The very case may be comparable to the MRT under the watch of Joseph Emilio Abaya este Pabaya.  Remembering Pabaya I decided to get some old news from Rappler in order to troll the Pinklawans. One of them was in regards to Pabaya's reaction on the derailed MRT train . On the day of the train system's worst accident to date, Abaya defended the train system’s maintenance: "There's no lapse in our maintenance. The little that I know so far, there might be a lapse in the procedure, rather than a failure parts or failure in main, but again, I'm not closing the fact but we have to investigate and share to the public the real cause." The following day, Abaya admitted the line is overdue for an upgrade but insisted the line was still s...

It's not just the Lazy Filipino Students but also Kayabangan Partylist that's been making waves again. The signing of the Public Services Act of 2022 by President Rodrigo R. Duterte has caused quite an outrage in this CPP-NPA legal front. Deny all they want but they've red-tagged themselves. Now, Representative Sarah Jane I. Elgago is re-running as congresswoman for May 2022. This should be an eye-opener because you definitely don't want her in power, right? The big question is do you really still want Kayabangan Partylist in politics? If you're a concerned parent or if you've got children - you really shouldn't allow the likes of Elgago in politics. Why is Kayabangan Partylist, really, so against amending the foreign investment act to invite more foreigners? Just listening to the voices of Lazy Filipino Students and Kayabangan Partylist drives me nuts. Maybe, because if I were a communist, I would be subscribing to Deng Xiaoping's views of free markets...

Neri Colmenares is that all-time clown, right? He filed for candidacy last 2016, last 2019, and now he's planning to run this 2022. Bayad Muna is among those many CPP-NPA legal fronts aside from Kayabangan Partylist, Migraine International, Anakbayad, Katribu (which I think Peke Aeta of Fliptards is a part of), Bagong Alansyang Makabayad, Lazy Filipino Students, Alliance of Complaining Teachers, Anakpatis, and Gagabriela. Besides, I decided to write (before) about how stupid can he get ? Though, I think by now that these leftist groups aren't really nationalists but are POWER HUNGRY people . A lot of their agenda would really display their true personalities - a group of people who only want their hold on power.  Back then, I used to say, "I don't think they know what they're talking about." Now, I really think that these clowns know what they're talking about. They are there to mislead people. Colmenares has bene having the same platform all over again su...

The accusation that so-and-so have been using troll farms (which both DDS and Dilawans accuse each other of) as well as Bobong Marcos is on. Election seasons tend to be the time when troll farms exist. Some of the troll farms also help operate pages like Change Scamming, Silent No More, and the whole #CocoyGate operation. Apparently, Antonio Trillanes IV might be the mastermind behind some troll farms himself since he's getting called as Trollanes. This gives me yet another weird speculation that maybe, just maybe, troll farms are indeed responsible for the high ratings of teleseryes such as how Ang Probinsyano keeps getting high ratings in this DIGITAL AGE. Mula Sa Puso as well as other teleseryes had high ratings in the 1990s. Back then, the Internet was in its infancy - dial up modems were the norm before the digital subscriber line (DSL) came to be. People back then were crazy about the teleseryes of the past. I could remember how teachers in my time kept complaining about stu...

March tends to be associated with " Flor Contemplacion Day " followed by the commemoration of the " Three Drug Mules in China ". Granted, yesterday was Flor Contemplacion Day, her death anniversary was commemorated on its 20th year last 2015, and its  silver anniversary hit during the height of the pandemic . I was personally afraid that Singapore's sudden increase in COVID-19 would be politicized by the likes of Migraine International since the silver anniversary hit during the height of COVID-19. This made me think of that movie which (thankfully) wasn't shown to us in school. It was called The Flor Contemplacion Story which starred Nora Aunor (who has been appearing in Migraine International events) and the twin sons of Flor as THEMSELVES. The movie came months after the execution of Flor in Singapore. Much outrage came that it was said President Rodrigo R. Duterte made a serious blunder in protest back when he was mayor. It was also when former president...

The silver anniversary of the death of "Saint" Flor Contemplacion was hindered by COVID-19 ECQ measures two years ago. Now, it's 2022 and I feel like raining on the parade of the idiots of the CPP-NPA legal fronts such as Migraine International, Anakbayad, Lazy Filipino Students, Bayad Muna, Alliance of Complaining Teachers, Kayabangan Partylist, Anakpatis, and the like. Migraine well gives off a migraine with their stupidity. Recruits of Migraine International protest wanting to end labor export, increase salaries, etc. all the while they reject foreign direct investments (FDI) as "imperialism". Besides, the members of Lazy Filipino Students condemned the passing of the 100% ownership of FDI regarding public utilities . They argued it as "imperialism" never mind that the 100% ownership of FDI is all about NOT HAVING TO REQUIRE A FILIPINO PARTNER. It's all about SHARES OWNERSHIP and NOT LAND OWNERSHIP. 60-40 is the policy that foreigners can only ...

  I was thinking about writing this post for Singapore Day. However, Singapore tends to be associated with the BOO F***ING HOO sentiments regarding the late Flor Contemplacion . It was something that  the silver anniversary of Flor's execution hit during COVID-19 ECQ . There are still people (UNTIL NOW) who still believe Flor was the "poor innocent victim" all because of the movie The Flor Contemplacion Story never mind that a twisted movie incriminated the INNOCENT Hubert Webb of a crime that he didn't commit. Now, it's time to celebrate "Flor Contemplacion Day" yet again with another stinging post. This time it's on lessons from the classic book From Third World to First to pour more salt into the wounds of idiots who still use Singapore as an excuse to reject badly needed reforms . The Marcos Years were NOT a real parliamentary It was mentioned by the late Ninoy Aquino that the Marcos Years weren't a real parliament . Just thinking of how Nino...

Note: Picture was taken last 2018 but it makes  good cover! The League of Filipino Students (LFS) is best renamed as LAZY Filipino Students. They are a disgrace to every Filipino student who is hardworking and trustworthy. The University of the Philippines should be a SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE and for the true national scholars. Unfortunately, we've had pasaway thought leaders that sprang out of every school, right? Now, I feel the stupidity of how the recruits of LFS continue to display their ignorance. It's that kind of ignorance that makes them easy recruits to the likes of Jose Maria Sison, Toady Casino, Neri Colmenares, Renato Reyes Jr., Antonio Tinio, Arlene Boborosas and Sarah Jane Elgago.  I remembered one time I wrote an article discussing the economic ignorance of recruits for Lazy Filipino Students . The outrage was when public utilities were given the go signal to have 100% shares ownership which they condemned as "imperialism". Ironic really that these CPP-NPA...

It's very easy to argue now that so and so is an economist, right? I was thinking of who to make the est poster person of this blog post. The first "logical choice" could've been Vice President Leni Loud Robredo. The next "logical choice" would be Sonny Africa of IBON Foundation since he got his degree from the London School of Economics. Since there's the erroneous belief that seniority builds "credibility" - I think the best poster person for this post is Solitas "Winnie the Pooh" Collas-Monsod, the wife of Atty. Christian Monsod who helped frame the 1987 Constitution. Unfortunately, the 1987 Constitution was written in such a hurry. Fortunately, it's NOT illegal to make amendments to it when necessary such as amending excessive restrictions against foreign investments. I remembered how often I spoke about the need for economic liberalization. I was told, "STFU YOU AREN'T AN ECONOMIST!" Fortunately, the late Lee K...
