Ung mga porter sa NAIA iba na trabaho nila.... balot bagahe na for Php100. hehe

 

Winnie Monsod brought this up with her conversation with the Airport Security Group people.

Kasi kumita bigla, lahat kasi nagpanic.

 

Apparently this is owned not by NAIA but a private contractor kuno. I have a feeling na isang official sa NAIA yan

Every time I see a sign sa mga establishments sa Pilipinas that says "Be careful of your personal belongings, we will not be liable for any loss", I say that this is one of the dumbest thing you can tell a patron. Of course one has to be careful of his personal belongings but the establishment has an equal responsibility of ensuring the security of the patrons. That is whats wrong with our country. Yun culture of "service" sucks! Authorities and staff are apathetic. The government, instead of giving us concrete solutions keep finding these dumb excuses as if those of us who use the airport have an IQ of 70

 

I mean the mere fact that we have to resort to all these extra measures means the government is basically telling us that they are incompetent and bahala na lang tayo sa buhay natin lol.

 

And they've made us the global object of contempt. Laglag bala scam reaches Fox News Channel

[gwapingsz1]

Damn. I truly wish that our country can turn things around.

 

But until that day comes, I will always share the same sentiments below.

Naunahan mo ako dyan, first it was the US, then the UN, now Japan:

Viral: Japanese TV show re-enacts 'laglag bala' scam

Why warn the law abiding citizens? Why not warn those who intend to break the law??? Why not issue threats to the criminals or soon to be criminals? Why is it always those who follow the law that gets oppressed by our own government?

 

Human rights in this country, which is defined as "criminals have all the rights, the victims have none". Its why folks like Duterte and Aflredo Lim are hounded by the CHR, but mass murders and gang rapes are belittled by the CHR. They might as well rename the CHR as criminal human rights.

Cutting the clitoris or Female circumcision? Such a barbaric practice.

Cutting the clitoris or Female circumcision? Such a barbaric practice.

 

I wouldn't outright say it's barbaric for the sole notion that it's a cultural practice. Backwardness is always attributed to how one culture sees another anyway

If you have tried to read the article in full, you'd realize how such practice is so savagely cruel, regardless of its intention. Aside from the fact that it is rarely discussed openly, all the more (so) its ‘execution’. Mainly because it violates women’s right, thus a discriminatory practice.

 

The belief of having its beneficial impact in terms of religious and sexual is not even backed up or proven by any entities such Islam and Science. This is entirely different from male circumcision as it is acceptable and even required as far as religion and cleanliness are concerned.

 

Heck, I’d rather prefer to die abruptly than have my clitoris mutilated just for any reasons. lol

What an idiot.

 

The anniversary yesterday would have been his last chance as head of the country to commiserate with the millions of Filipinos in Leyte and Samar who had relatives who died in the disaster, or whose homes and farmlands were devastated. I don’t think this gutless president would even dare show his face in Tacloban City when he steps down next year. I was told that Aquino didn’t even have any other official activity scheduled for yesterday.

What was he doing? Competing with his nephew, Josh, in some X-box game, so he could forget how he utterly failed as President in responding to the calamity that had taken thousands of lives and cut a wide swath of destruction through the mid-eastern coast of his country? Even internationally renowned journalists Anderson Cooper and Christiane Amanpour shamed him and his sidekick Manuel Roxas for their incompetence. Source.

Turns out to be a lot worse:

Plot begins to thicken with whats going on inside the INC leadership

 

Mukhang nagkakaroon na consistency yung mga paratang sa sangunian. Umiiral pa din megalomania dito. Ni hindi sinipot preliminary hearing para sila mismo pasinungalingan sinsabi ni Samson at Menorca.

 

Eto mga tanong ko.

 

Ano makukuha ni Menorca o ni Samson banggain ang INC? Para lang silang ipis na nagpapasagasa sa Tanke. Kikita ba sila ng malaki dito? Mananalo bang senador? Bakit mo isusugal reputasyon mo, hanapbuhay, at mismong buhay mo at ng pamilya mo para bumangga sa isang higanteng kalaban tulad ng INC?

 

Bakit walang eviction notice is Angel Manalo? Kung totoong di naman sya hostage dun, kung totoong expelled na sila, bakit pinapayagan pa sila tumira dun? It does not make sense. And now they are asking for court order na pagbawalan sila tumanggap ng dalaw at pasalubong. Bakit hindi eviction notice yun hingiin ni EVM? Something tells me na ayaw nilang lumabas ito si Angel kasi madami syang nalalaman

[FleurDeLune]

This isn't a joke.

 

[rooster69ph]

This isn't a joke.

 

 

how can he take the responsibility when it seems that he does not know what his responsibilities are when questioned.

Sublime job done by Senators Marcos, Cayetano, and Recto in grilling Secretary Abaya and the general manager of the NAIA, Honrado. It seems that the guy knows nothing.

Just like their boss, KNOWS NOTHING
