    Well based on what you enumerate, I still stand on my statement na kahit pagsamahin mo pa sila It can't equal the brains of FEMs cabinet like Carlos P. Romulo, Estelito Mendoza,  Arturo Tolentino, Blas Ople Vicente Abad Santos, Ricardo Puno, Roberto Ongpin. Cesar Virata and Salvador Escudero to name a few.  Even late  FVR is part of it as Phil. Constabulary chief.  Didn't even include Enrile :D

    So stipulated. Marcos Sr's status in the UP community, as well as the "unique" feature of his regime, allowed him to fully mine academic and professional talents, especially from UP. But my point was, even a one-term president with only 6 years has a big enough store of qualified candidates.

    Oh and unfortunately, Marcos Sr's cabinet and inner circle included (aside from Enrile-- a definite minus) Imelda Marcos, Fabian Ver, Cocoy Romualdez, Bejo Romualdez, Alita Martel, Danding Cojuanco, Lucio Tan, Herminio Disini, Roman Cruz, Benedicto, and others who somehow escaped justice and are either still living or died fabulously rich. That, according to many, was more than enough to offset the competence of his core cabinet men.

    With regard to the last point above, I'm a bit neutral. All the US-friendly dictators in Asia had to have a swarm of business cronies. Their job was basically to break the monopoly of the old rich, and foreign owners. The original Korean conglomerates (precursors of the likes of Hyundai, Samsung, and Daewoo) had as original directors relatives and cronies of Park Chung Hee. The large conglomerates in Singapore were all founded by cronies of Lee Kwan Yew. Indonesia under Soeharto is probably the worse in terms of cronyism.

    Debt management? Swerte lang ni abnoy dahil umepekto sa termino nya mga programa ni gloria na pinakulong nya pa pero di nya naman napa convict.

    Wrong, nitwit. The low inflation during Abnoy's time was due to a prolonged low interest rate regime by Tetangco of BSP (among other things.) For more than 6 years, BSP key rates were at 3%. It spiked to 7% only beginning 2018.

    Can you name some?

    You mean you don't know or you're just asking me to substantiate? Not a very good way to discuss. You can just give a straight reply. Anyway, there's a 99% chance you won't read this but for Ramos, you have Delfin Lazaro who basically solved the power crisis in the early '90s. There's Dr. Juan Flavier who revitalized the country's vaccination program. There's Gen. Jose Almonte who's the best NSA the country ever had. Secretary of Finance was veteran banker Roberto De Ocampo. Foreign Affairs secretary was veteran politician Sen. Alberto Romulo.

    I don't know if this is a credit to Ramos but he formed the PACC headed by then VP Erap. At least, the PACC didn't do any wrongs at the same scale as those made by idiot bisayas Duterte and Dela Rosa.

  4. Ano ba naman 'yan??? Disbarred na, mabibigyan pa din ng position? Buti pa yung matandantang Mackoy, at least kumukuha ng mga magagaling galing UP noon.

  5. Bakit palaging talo? Simple lang. Sobrang daming bob0ng botante sa Pilipinas. Dati pa 'yan. Mga tanga na bumoto kay Mackoy noong 1969. Yung mga bumoto kay Miriam, Ramos, at Danding noon 1992. Mga bob0ng bumoto kay Erap noon 1998. Ano pa? Hindi nga ako makapaniwala na nanaalo noon 2010 si Abnoy, eh. Laking misteryo sa akin 'yon.

    Habang madaming mangmang na Ilocano at bisayang botante, ganyan ang mga magiging presidente natin.

  6. Kapag may nagtanong "bakit madami pa ding mahirap?" automatic tanga yung nagtanong. Kapag ang tanong "ano nagawa ng pangulo na 'yan?" automatic tanga yung nagtanong. Kapag ang tanong "ano gagawin para maihango ang lahat sa kahirapan sa loob ng anim na taon?" automatic tanga yung nagtanong.

    N.B. sa mga dutertard at marcos fanatics malimit mong madidinig ang mga 'yon.

    You're wrong in so many points. Having a good, honest leader at the top HAS resulted in measurable benefits. You're just showing your ignorance when you say it doesn't matter who sits at the top. Either that or you are likely a dyed-in-the-wool dutertard or marcos moron. And it's not just the fault of a government. Oftentimes it's the fault of the private sector or the citizenry. But you're right in saying that each citizen should world to improve the country in the way he/she is most effective.

  8. From the Idiot Marcosian: "The Nobel Prize Awarding committee is nothing but stringent in the review of the backgrounds of their nominees to ensure that the award is given to people with exemplary character ."

    Grammatically and factually incorrect. One bad thing about being stupid is you don't get tired of it. Bad news for the coming 2028 elections.
