Making It Fun in the Philippines

Ever remembered the time when a lot of people thought Atty. Vitaliano Aguirre Jr. was their "new hero" because of his mistake during the late Renato Corona's impeachment trial? While I can remember fuming over what he did and making a fuzz about it, I failed to see that there was a bigger fault with the Senate itself. I don't think he was entirely against disagreeing with Senator Miriam Santiago's argument but he was obviously displeased by her repetitive nagging. Then again, the Senators also deserved that repetitive nagging for treating the process as a game. A few years later, he became Getulio Napenas' lawyer where he was at his best behavior. Let's focus on the whole idea of "my new hero" to "my new enemy".

Do you remember the canceled would have been national blockbuster called Sagasa 2016 ? Both Noynoy Aquino and Joseph Pabaya made that promise if the expressway from Baclaran to Bacoor wasn't completed by 2016 that they'd allow themselves be run over by a train. January 1, 2016 of the solar calendar came and they are still alive. Then we had them both still alive after January 1, 2016 and on February 7, 2016 which was January 1, 2016 according to the Chinese calendar. Did those two even put in their heads that they were in the Philippines and not in China? But neither New Year nor Chinese New Year offered Filipinos the opportunity to see both morons get run over paying for all the lives that have been lost no thanks to MRT disasters. I mean, enough is enough! How many broken promises have they made to Filipinos anyway to end the old system and bring in the new? The problem of the MRT deterioration has not only increased traffic to unbelievable levels but it's also put ...

It's time to start with some of them to address the two truths about traffic. One is that traffic is NOT a sign of progress. The other is to readdress Joseph Pabaya who should be put to jail for his crimes against the Filipino people.  Traffic is NOT a sign of progress It's amazing how some Filipinos bought in to the lie that heavy traffic is a sign of progress. With the current raid that PNP Chief Bato Dela Rosa and Chief Justice Vitaliano Aguirre Jr.  found several unsolved anomalies in the Bilibid Prison. So an estimate that 70% (or even higher) of shabu was produced in Bilibid came out. To those who keep saying, "Don't worry, traffic is a sign of progress." to their fellow Filipinos who are FED UP with traffic need to be questioned, "So you say that heavy traffic is a sign of progress? Tell me then did you spend all your time sniffing on Shabu from the Bilibid Prison?" Maybe they were sniffing on shabu but even without shabu a lot of Filipi...

Although the term of Noynoy Aquino has officially ended, one must consider the huge problem of legalized theft . The problem is that for several years it's always been safeguarding the ruling class . The whole administration of Noynoy has not punished any of his allies guilty of theft of public funds. In the whole process, they have committed acts of legalized theft. Why it should be called legalized theft is because they've made their acts of theft legal by their position and authority which should not be the case. What acts of legalized theft were committed during the Noynoy Administration? The use of the pork barrel, Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP), the Yolanda operation fiasco , sheltering tax evaders who pay the Bureau of Internal Revenue money under the table, accepting bribes from criminals and overtaxing everyone in the Philippines with a high limit of 32% are just a few cases of legalized theft one could name. There's a lot of punishment that should ...

Every Filipino who's demanding and fighting for the Philippines to enter into economic liberalization and constitutional correction may consider reading this post's rather extreme alternative. They want to know what I really think should be done to those economic protectionist lovers  who cry out, "FOREIGN INVASION!" towards foreign investors or continue to insist that self-industrialization is 100% achievable never mind they haven't tested that theory on an uncharted island? With the move to liberate the Philippine economy from the stupidity of 60/40 there's going to be a lot of idiots who are going to keep shouting that invaders are coming. This may sound crazy but I think this may be one alternative to help the Philippines become a better country.

It's good news for all the people in the Philippines in total as well as the rest of the countries that got affected by President Xi Jin Ping's unethical territorial expansion. It's never been good for any country to bully another. While China in the past has had been focused on Deng Xiao Ping's vision of anti-imperialism, today the time to carry out his vision that should China become a bully then the world should rise against it. That's what the Philippines did with other countries like Vietnam, Taiwan and South Korea to name a few of the dragon's enemies. I'd like to assume on a what if the Philippines lost the arbitration case against China. Before that, let me talk about those idiotic Chinese netizens  who just shamed every decent Chinese around. After China's loss (and that loss was really needed before that country becomes a bigger worldwide bully), they smashed their i-Phones and boycotted Philippine mangoes. It was a waste of good mangoes and...

As I said, I have nothing against liking Japanese stuff or adults who like Anime, Super Sentai (or any Tokusatsu) for the matter. I don't think it's childish for any guy in one's late 20s or early 30s to still watch Zyuohger or Kamen Rider Ghost. I'm now older than Nobuo Akagi but I can enjoy anything new from Tokusatsu if it gives me a really good story. I'd like to address the problem of liking Japanese culture too much. Japanese entertainment isn't always good as I learned it the hard way for the past few years. I could give an example of something that happened around this decade. Capcom is a Japanese company yet Marvel vs. Capcom 3 sucks out big time because it didn't take advantage of the seventh generation consoles' powers and left us with something mediocre. While I personally don't really like most of American entertainment that much these days but I can't deny that Japanese companies can suck too. As of late, I think a lot of Tokusat...
