Duterte's Presidency : Expectations, Controversies, Rants, Etc.

[pelvic punisher]

 

Ang OA naman. Kahit kelan di ko naman inasahang maging perpekto si Duterte. Tanggap nga ng marami na di sya perpekto di ba? At least na lang, di garapal yun pagpapangap at pangbobola ng tao tulad ng iba.

 

Alam mo padi, hindi naman mahirap intindihin na me mga taong mas nageenjoy at mas nahahanap identity nila sa dati nilang nakasanayan. Ewan sayo pre ha, pero ako pag umuuwi ng bicol mas gusto ko pa din yun bus, kahit ngayon kayang kaya na naman mageroplano na lang. Minsan me mga promo pa presyo na pantay na halos sa bus. Tsaka masaya kaya bumiyahe on the road. That is why I so much get Mam Leni Robredo why she opts it.

 

Pero ano magagawa ko kung ganyan kasarado utak mo. Maalala ko, do ba noon nangagalaiti ka sa galit kay GMA nung gumastos sya ng 1 milion sa le cirque? Ngayon naman me presidente tayo na mas simple me reklamo ka pa din ba?

Brad may kasabihan "you cannot please everybody" hayaan na lang naten sila, ganyan sila magisip negatibo. Ganon talaga buhay may bida at may kontra bida haha.

Agree with you on the separation of church and state.

 

Duterte needs to show that even if he is close to Quiboloy, quiboloy should not meddle with state affairs (although if Du30 said quiboloy will donate the private jet to the government for his use then malabong walang say yan si quiboloy)

 

O eto para matuwa ka ng konti

Yeah tama ka talaga dyan brader. Ganun na nga lang ginagawa nila sa totoo lang, basta makaantagonize lang kahit yun mga mababaw gagamitin pa

[daphne loves derby]

Buti pa si Sen. Ping, sa halip na kumontra at magmagaling, handang sumuporta at tumulong. Hindi nasayang boto ko sayo.

Sana lahat ng senator eh ganito ka supportive ke Pres. Digong.

 

TO HELP DIGONG | Lacson to push for passage of bill that seeks to empower LGUs, curb crime

http://interaksyon.com/article/128028/to-help-digong--lacson-to-push-for-passage-of-bill-that-seeks-to-empower-lgus-curb-crime

 

MANILA, Philippines – Senator-elect Panfilo M. Lacson on Friday said he would push for the enactment of a bill that supports the incoming administration’s goal of empowering local governments and curb criminality.

Lacson said his proposed Budget Reform Act, which is based on his Budget Reform Advocacy for Village Empowerment (BRAVE), seeks to ensure enough funds for local government units (LGU) to implement their development projects,

“This shares the objective of federalism – to empower local government units with sufficient funds to implement their own development projects – without having to go through the process of amending the 1987 Constitution,” said Lacson, who ran as an independent candidate in the May 9 polls.

He said the bill would also help bring down criminality by attracting people to work on development projects instead of resorting to petty crime.

In many cases, he said petty crimes stem from poverty.

“When there are many opportunities presented by development projects, we can expect less reason for people to resort to crime to make ends meet,” he said.

Appointment ni Mark Villar is flawed from the onset.

 

Its like telling a wolf to guard a pen full of sheep.

 

Villar's past is too conflicting to put him there. Kung pumalpak yan i don't think sisibakin yan. Sibak din ang political agreement.

 

Meaning, the DPWH is going back to their old ways.

 

Akala ko change is coming looks like it's another flamboyant tagline

 

 

I was for Duterte and still am but when Mark Villar was appointed DPWH secretary, I was dismayed. Alam na ang mangyayari, they will buy lands all over the country for conversion to Crown Asia's, Camellas and Portofinoses, and build roads that run through them. At the people's taxes's expense. Maybe no direct corruption but still beneficial for their real estate company.

 

Maybe peace and order will be better, a little bit of socialist experimentation, faster decisions on policy implementation, but still the same patronage politics.

A professional engineer with impressive track record should be appointed as DPWH Secretary, not a politician with known vested interests.

baka naka-bait lang yun para if ever mag corrupt ang dpwh sec. may reason na para kasuhan?

Disappointing ito Pres. Digong! Mukhang political accommodation na naman ito. Saan ang change? Alfonso Cusi isa sa mga major player ng Hello Garci! Tsk Tsk! GMA boys are back in business again!

 

Change is coming? Or we are a short changed!

[Rabbit305]

Kung si pinoy ay may kkk kaklase, kaibigan at kabarilan. It seems si duterte naman e kaklase at kabarkada ang pinipili. Should have more technocrats in his govt.

[brandonboyd]

I don't get why he chose Mark Villar as DPWH Secretary? That guy isn't even an engineer and we all know that they have a real estate company. There could be conflict of interest in selecting projects and the bidding process as well.

Instead of expecting long and straight expressways, resign yourself to see the new expressways zigzagging in order to connect all the Camella Homes subdivisions along its path.

[Edmund Dantes]

Tungkol sa appointment

 

Since naman time ni Aguinaldo lahat ng nauupong gabinete ay usally yun malakas sa presidente. Eh syempre! Kukuha ka ba ng tao na alam mong tra-traydurin ka? Di dun ka na sa mga taong tumulong sa kampanya mo at alam mong kampi talaga sayo. Kung hudasin ka pa ng mga yan

 

Naiintindihan ko mga agam agam nyo. Ako din nagalala nung gusto nya magbigay ng pwesto sa CPP. Pero lets face it, kahit sino pa nanalo na presidente siguradong ang iaapoint nyang mga cabinet members ay yun malakas sa kanya.

 

But let us also be fair, he is also keeping some of PNOY's men

 

So I think masyado pa maaga para magbigay ng matinding batikos o sabihin na short-changed na nga tayo. Pambihira ni hindi pa nga nanunumpa eh. Anatayin muna kasi natin. Ang importante at least nagtratrabaho na sya

[itachi21]

For any president, a single person can only do so much. Pero, if he appoints the right persons as his secretaries, director or head of whatever branch of government, they can do a lot for the country.

 

I hope Digong will appoint honest and competent heads of these branches and will not play favors.

ito ang "pagbabagong" pangako ni Dutiti

[JohnLee]

Since nandyan na yan, I wish him the best for the benefit of every Pinoy.

 

Sana yun ginawa niyang pag-didisiplina (at pananakot?) sa mga tao ng Davao since 1986/1987 (more or less 30 years)... sana magawa din niya sa buong Pilipinas sa loob ng 6 na taon. Sa totoo lang superficial yun sa Davao, kasi meron pa ring heinous crimes... binumbero nga lang (negative news was largely suppress). Ipagpaliban na lang natin yun pangako niyang mag-resign after 6 months if di mawala ang crime at drugs sa buong Pilipinas, Kasi impossibleng mangyari ito maski siguro magkasabay pang mamuno si Obama at Putin dito sa Piilpinas.

 

Sana rin wag matulad ang ekonomiya ng buong Pilipinas sa Lungsod ng Davao. Simply compare the economy of Manila, Cebu & Davao, sino ang bokya? Sino ang namuno ng halos 30 na taon sa Davao? Sa totoo lang mas progressive pa ang CDO sa Davao. I've been traveling to Davao (and other major cities) up to 12X a year for the over a decade. Hanggang ngayon, mabibilang mo ang high-rise, sad empty store slots, etc. sa Davao =(. Sana meron maayos na economic policies ang parating na administrasyon.

 

Sana ituloy at ipalawak ang laban against corruption. Sana ma streamline ang gobyerno at maiayos ang serbisyo (at makuha ko na ang new car plate na bayad ko na). Sana mabawi ang mga territoryo natin. Sana natapos na ang rebelyo (or organized crime) ng NPA, MILF, MNLF, etc. Sana di siya komunista/maoist at pro-China. Sana walang cronyism at nepotism.

 

Sana after 6 years, mas maging proud at dignified tayong mga Pinoy.

 

Ito po ay mga aking pasa-SANA lamang, ang aking mga aspirations at opinions lang po. Peace and good luck to all of us!

All presidents have their own way of development and focus for improvement, kay Duterte siguro ang magiging focus niya ay internal, lalo na sa PEACE and ORDER ng tao niya inside and outide of his administration scope.

[Edmund Dantes]

Ako hindi umaasa na magiging perpektong presidente si Duterte.

 

Ni hindi ko inaasahan na within 6 months masusugpo nya kriminalidad. Kahit irecruit nya pa avengers hindi mauubos mga kriminal at droga sa Pilipinas.

 

Pero ganun pa man, sana maging masipag sya at maging result-oriented. Hindi yun puro pamumulitika at palabok na salita lang. Sana maramdaman natin na meron tayong government of the people, for the people, and by the people. Hindi yun puro lang oligarchs naghahari.

Nationalist People’s Coalition of businessman Eduardo “Danding” Cojuangco Jr. have signed an agreement joining the coalition of change with the Partido Demokratikong Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) of President-elect Rodrigo Duterte.

The agreement was signed at the Makati Diamond Residences on 20 May 2016 by NPC president Giorgidi Aggabao and PDP-Laban presidetn Sen. Koko Pimentel. NPC supported losing presidential bet Grace Poe in the May 9 elections.

Duterte’s candidate for House Speaker, incoming Davao del Norte Rep. Pantaleon “Bebot” Alvarez thanked the NPC for its support.

PDP-Laban will meet the National Unity Party of businessman Ricky Razon next.

In the last five days, PDP-Laban has signed coalition deals with the Nacionalista Party of former Senator Manny Villar, Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats of former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, and the 45-member party-list bloc led by Ako Bicol.

Alvarez said that with NP, NPC, and NUP, his quest for Speaker in the 17th Congress was in the bag.

[BRAIN FOR HIRE]

These are the only things I want to reasonably expect:

 

If he can pass the death penalty again- I am all for the mass extermination of the "proven" undesirables.

 

If he can get Congress to form a constituent assembly- I am all for greater autonomy (federalism or whatever scheme they call it) and for greater development of the provinces.

 

If he can regulate the vehicles using EDSA- I am all for stricter regulations in registration (Ala Singapore), phasing out older models-especially smoke belchers, and eliminating illegal street parking (it's not "double parking" but whatevs).

 

Yan lang. The country can be run the same way as before. The government doesn't feed, clothe or house me, and I will NEVER expect it too.

pre, taga Davao ako... doon ako lumaki and spent 97% of my life living there...

 

1) hindi kami tinatakot ni Digong... sumusunod kami hindi dahil sa takot... sumusunod kami kasi yun ang nararapat at yung namumuno samin leads by example... strikto si Digong pero hindi takot mga Davao sa kanya... respeto at pagmamahal sa mayor namin ang dahilan bakit kami sunusunod...

 

2) pre, been to CDO many times and I disagree na mas progressive and CDO kesa sa davao... lamang lang konti sa dami ng industries/factories ang CDO pero other aspects, talo ng Davao ang CDO...

 

3) a mayor of Davao can only do so little regarding economic activities... eh ano lang ba kapangyarihan ng mayor? much of a place's economic progress rest mostly sa national policy... Manila is the capital city and much is given attention to it by the national government... Cebu is strategically situated at the center of the country kaya maraming mamumuhunan... Ang davao naman ay napakalayo to most parts of the country being located deep south plus the chaos brought by Moro rebellion in nearby ARMM...Its like comparing apples to orange to durian...Pero the main point pa rin eh hindi kasalanan ng mayor kung mas progressive and cebu at manila because it all points to the national policy... digong already brought davao economically speaking as far as he can given his limited power as city mayor... for davao to go to the next level, national policy na ang kailangan...

Now I understand Duterte's sudden turn-around on Gibo Teodoro as DND Secretary.

 

Galit si Danding kay Gibo. And Duterte is now forming alliance with Danding (you know, after Danding unsuccessfully supported Grace Poe....).

 

Sayang, marami pa namang reform-minded sa military ang natuwa nung napabalitang babalik sa DND si Gibo.

Edited May 23, 2016 by camiar

[camiar]

 

It was Gibo who REFUSED to work as DND secretary, on his personal reasons. I am not sure if Danding was the MAIN reason since hindi lang naman sa kanila naki pag alyansa ang PDP Laban.

 

 

 

News report:

 

"... MANILA, Philippines (UPDATED) – Former defense chief Gilbert "Gibo" Teodoro Jr denied reports that he has already declined president-elect Rodrigo Duterte's offer for him to again lead the Department of National Defense (DND).

Teodoro told Rappler on Sunday, May 22, that he has yet to decide.

"The importance of the position to the national interest requires no less than serious consultation especially with the President-elect before accepting such, in order to ensure that a prospective Secretary is the right choice," he said.

Duterte was himself quoted in other reports as saying that Teodoro had already declined. Rappler is trying to reach the president-elect's camp for comment and clarification.

In a video of Duterte's press conference late Saturday night, May 21, he said, "Gibo has begged off. I have in mind a military man although retired. I have to talk to him."

Yet Teodoro said, "I have not decided yet."

Because of the ongoing AFP modernization, a lot of vested interest groups are salivating for the DND post.

Gibo would have been a fine choice for the position, but political expediency dictates otherwise.

BTW, I'm not Jopoc.
