  1. i came across this article from the officialgazette.gov and would like to hear thoughts from everyone.

     

    in summary, article contains (technically) bankruptcy declaration by marcos sr during his last days in office. article was posted a few days before the snap elections. 

     

    objectively speaking, the declaration contains his recognition that the philippines is not really doing well during his time - contrary to what has been always insisted.

     

    what i have always thought was that cory sold and privatized government assets during her period with the aim of paying back the country's massive debt. it seems that marcos sr planned for it, and cory's administration was left to review and implement.

    That information is pretty much available online. In the 15th Congress alone, he authored 34 bills and co-authored 17 more. One of them might be familiar to most, the Cybercrime Prevention Act.

    Also, he was majorly responsible (when he was Governor) for the Windmill project in Burgos and Bangui towns in Ilocos Norte. That area now has 50% of its electricity requirements come from renewable sources. 

    Wait, sorry. Medyo nagcoincide lang kasi I was talking to someone the other day about the Ilocos Norte Windmills plus other things found out from his personal website.

     

    I found articles that are not exactly in-line with the Marcos narratives stating that the windmills are initially their idea. At best, the most I could credit to him would be his approval/signing for the go-ahead of the project for his region.

    All I'm saying na he was lucky that he was in service during that time.

     

    My findings:

    There was an external study by NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory, US based) which provided a comprehensive map of locations within the Philippines that are feasible for good wind energy alternatives. Numerous locations where found - with Ilocos Norte being one of the best.

     

    EDC (Energy Development Corp, Lopez owned) then sent their proposal to build the wind farms and got approvals from ERC/DOE (Energy Regulatory Commission/Dept of Energy) following the Renewable Energy Act 2008. Funding was provided by loans from various bank loans. The project was done with cooperation from other local and international companies

     

    In summary, this project seems to be initiated and driven by a private company as a contractor, and given approval by the PH govt - articles I found regarding the project has no mention of any Marcos.

     

    Don't mistake this a a bash of the project. I'm all for renewable energies. I'm just saying the narratives does not match. Something that I find... consistent.

     

    Now since we are in the topic of his vision for renewable energy, I wanted to know if he had any bills/resolutions in line with it so I can better understand his vision. 

    From his website, I found SRN 622 which was labeled as Energy Infrastructure System.

    Thinking it was something related to the windmills, I checked the senate site for SRN 622. Only 1 entry was found syempre kasi I searched for the actual resolution number. But what I found as SRN 622 was this:

    Authority of LGUs on PCSO’S Small Town Lottery Operations

    Filed by Lacson. Ok...

     

    That's just one example... I did find more pero finding these kind of mistakes on one's public portfolio as critical as this makes you wonder nalang e...

    Brings back memories of his Oxford attainment.

    Found that I looked under the wrong congress. 622 is verified as a his resolution for Energy Infrastructure System.

  3. 1month lang? longest i had was 5yrs. 2011 to 2016. naputol lang dahil naisipan ko lumandi after 5yrs of getting over heartbreak.

     

    right now, im on 4th year na ulit of having no sex.

     

    i think mas madali sa mga babae talaga na tumagal without sex lalo dito sa conservative ph. though may mga kilala ako na talagang naghahanap monthly ng tuhog 🤣

  4. most memorable date ko was for the wrong reason. naging memorable hindi dahil sa nag enjoy kami at hindi rin dahil sa nag away kami.

     

    naging memorable sya kasi nag sleep walk ako right in the middle of our date - literally habang naglalakad kami.

     

    needless to say, date was cut short

  5. noon: kasi isa akong inosente njng nagjoin ako. dito ako natuto at lumawak ang pagunawa ng mga bagay bagay. walang kyeme. walang judgement.

     

     

    ngayon: avenue pag gusto ko kumawala sa realidad lalo sa mga panahon ngayon. makapagbasa ng mga kulo ng mga tao.

  6. im sorry.. pero personally natatawa nalang ako pag may mga taong hindi naniniwala na mas madaling abusuhin ang ATB..

     

    i believe all of us are well aware naman of how corrupt people either plant false evidences or twist things to their favor.. just this period, ilan na ba ang mga nangyaring ganito?

     

    sure! higpitan ang batas - that is all fine. pero para saan pa ang paghihigpit kung palpak naman ang pagpapatupad at hindi mapagkatiwalaan ang mga tagapagpatupad?

  7. for oncologists:

     

    kung kunwari kakatapos lang ng operasyon to remove a cyst and ang finding is malignant tumor

     

    advisable ba na magpatingin na agad the same week ng operasyon, o need ba muna na intayin maghilom ung surgery cut?

  8. Aren't people tired of how some individuals outright call non Marcos followers as automatic "yellowtards"? Really a shame that displays the level of argument and understanding they have.

     

    PLUS how some automatically insinuate na may kasalanan ang mga taong dinampot noon without any warrants and without any understandable reason except going against a dictator simply wanting to express themselves.

     

    Sticking to the topic: It is a fact that most of the infrustructures enjoyed today were built during his regime. I'll leave it as a myth on how.

  9. I no longer see any solution actually. Dami mahilig mangatwiran e. Ive seen and read lots of suggestions only to be shutdown by a selfish argument.

     

    Lets take the cars parked on/by the sidewalks as an example. Obviously they are a cause of traffic. Remove them. Dont counter that there are no parking spaces. Layo kayo ng onti at may makikita din kayo. Maghanap ka kahit malayo. Ang tatamad gusto lagi malapit sa babaan.

     

    Kung wala talaga makuha space then leave the car in your garage. Walang garahe? Why buy a car in the first place? Kasi convenient/secure? I dont see the convenience when you would be cursing the long hours on the road because of traffic. There is still no security when you're stuck in traffic with close to frustrated drivers around. Kahit saan ka magpunta kung di ka maingat mapag didiskitahan ka talaga sa krimen.

     

     

    Thats just an example. Mahirap alisin sa atin ang pangangatwiran. Hanggat walang gusto magbigay - wala tayo karapatan umasa.

     

    Ang totoo ang nakikita kong solusyon ay alisin ang mga lumang kotse/van/truck. Ung mga mausok ang tambutso. Dalawa ang masosolusyunan nun. Trapiko at polusyon.

     

    Ai onga, may magrereklamo wag makialam sa kotse ng my kotse kasi di ko naman pera pinambili 😏

  10. Have both.. mas naeenjoy ko maglaro sa Vita.. Problema lang talaga ung choices ng games. Hindi mo naman masasabing konti, pero di din masabing marami. They have games. Ganun lang xD ahahaha

  12. Just a thought:

     

    Do we really need to make more laws? Won't it suffice to review the existing ones and rework them better to accommodate changes since their creation?

     

    How about we zoom in a particular field. Let's take for example the country's labor laws. Parang napapansin ko lang kasi karamihan sa mga employee union sagaran. They would quote this and that, without care on how the employer can meet the demands. Hindi ba nila naisip na as the employer, they also need to project the cost they'll need to maintain and function?
