Dear Nonoy,

 

In fairness, ang tanga tanga mo talaga...

 

ang hirap pala maging presidente no?

 

na-mi-miss ko na tuloy si ate Gloh...

 

hala, pasok ka na uli sa "music room" mo, at makinig ka sa P60K mong sweldo worth of bagong CD na binili mo...

 

buti pa ung ibang presidente, kahit kaplastikan lang, hindi pinangbili ng CD ung sweldo nila, at binigay sa mahihirap,

 

kahit kaplastikan lang, I'm sure talaga namang binigay at may nakinabang na mahirap don sa sweldo nila...

 

Noy, give in to your depression, mag pakamatay ka na! maging bayani ka, tulad ng "bayani" na magulang mo!

for the first time since marcos has a president and his administration brought nation-wide shame to its people to even our closest neighbor, HK.

 

for the fist time in so long we are now ashamed of our country, our leaders, our police and the way our country is handling our affairs.

 

We are ashamed of our president, our police, we are ashamed of even being a Filipino traveling to our closest and most visited neighbor. How can we repair this? How many years will it take for us to hold our heads up high again?

 

How many Lea Salongas, Charise Pempengcos, Ariel Pinedas and Manny Pacquiaos can save us from the embarrassment Benigno Aquino has brought to our nation?

Noy...

 

I really hate to lay down negative opinions on you (given that you're still young at your position) but the way you are caught on things recently...

 

Saludo ako to your supporters who let these kind of things pass. I agree these are little things, but as the president of our nation for (a few) months already, I do think you should already have atleast an idea of proper decorum.

 

Ewan. Ako nalang ang nahihiya para sa iyo.

Hey Pnoy

 

Maging matatag ka lang at madami ang kalaban...sabi nga nila kung madaming kalaban means madaming tinatamaan!!! :) the more enemies you get the better must be on how you run the govt...kasi hindi ka aaray kung hindi ka natatapakan...:)

 

Dear noy,

 

Indeed you have to be strong at wag lalamya-lamya at kaliwat kanan na ang nakakakita ng kahinaan mo. Better read this article and it might give you some hint on where you are now:

 

ASIA HAND

Exalted Aquino has far to fall

By Shawn W Crispin

 

MANILA - Yellow flags stamped with portraits of President Benigno Aquino's deceased politician parents wave along the capital's historic Roxas Boulevard. It is one of the ironies of Philippine politics that high hopes for change are so closely associated with death and disappointment. One of the flags, bearing the likeness of Aquino's assassinated father, reads: "Filipinos are worth dying for."

 

Aquino's rise to the presidency earlier this year owed largely to the timing of his mother's death from natural causes. The passing of former president Corazon Aquino, viewed by many Filipinos as a model Catholic and rare moral politician, sparked an outpouring of public grief that Benigno and his campaign managers were able to leverage ingeniously into campaign messages of hope and change.

 

Since taking office, Aquino has signaled the need for deep-reaching reforms and with his family's good name restored a modicum of public trust in government after Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's scandal-plagued tenure. He has also enjoyed halcyon days with the country's media, with business newspaper headlines beaming about the "Aquino effect" on resurrected consumer and business confidence.

 

But how long can the epiphany last? The Philippines takes many of its cultural and political cues from the United States, one of its former colonial rulers. In many ways, the Aquino exuberance that has swept the Philippines mirrors that of the early days of US President Barack Obama's heady, historic rise to power in 2008.

 

The buzz wore off in Washington with revelations that Obama was serving rather than punishing the big banks and insurance companies that led the country into economic and financial crisis, and that he recanted on his campaign trail promise to wind down costly US military adventurism after assuming the power of commander-in-chief.

 

Filipinos desperately need a new era of moral government, one that sheds reform light on the darkness of endemic corruption, cultures of violence and impunity, and stubbornly high unemployment and poverty rates. It is a matter of melancholy fact that the Philippines top earning export is labor, representing 25% of the active workforce, rather than homegrown manufactures or innovations.

 

While election-related spending and global recovery drove economic growth up 7.3% in the first quarter, unemployment nonetheless rose from 7.5% to 8% year on year in April, underscoring the challenge of creating enough jobs to keep pace with rapid population growth. Self-rated poverty and hunger rates declined quarter on quarter through March, yet 43% of Philippine households considered themselves impoverished and 24% as suffering from hunger, according to Social Weather Service surveys.

 

In a recent report, the World Bank noted that "Aquino's core electoral platform rested on improving governance and reducing corruption so as to reduce poverty" and that “these elections generated large hope for reforms and tackling well known structural bottlenecks, especially corruption - the perception of which has increased steadily over the past years as reported by various international cross country indices."

 

Nonetheless, diplomats and other seasoned foreign observers are skeptical that Aquino will be able to leverage his strong mandate and favorable family history into substantive political, economic and social change. Privately, Aquino's aides look askance at Obama's popular slippage and express concerns about the similarly steep expectations surrounding their reformist government.

 

Rule by gun

Unlike many of the Philippines' regional peers, where the legacies or realities of military rule have led to an over-concentration of central power over peripheral regions, the Philippines arguably suffers from central authority deficit. Political family clans rule entire provinces as fiefdoms and often treat local government budgets as personal coffers, a phenomenon US academic Alfred McCoy famously and rightly referred to as an "anarchy of families".

 

That anarchy resulted in last year's Maguindanao massacre, where one political clan armed with its own tanks and private militia murdered the relatives of another in an orgy of local election-related violence that left 57 dead. The accused perpetrators, members of the dominant Ampatuan clan, secured votes in the region for outgoing president Arroyo at the 2004 elections.

 

The massacre underscored the pressing need for more central authority over the country's many lawless and violence-prone provincial areas, where the police, courts and local officials perpetuate rather than check the abuses of powerful clans. In many murder cases across the country, the Supreme Court has ordered trials moved to Manila due to the perceived lack of independence of local courts and judges.

 

While Europe convicts about 90% of its murder suspects, and the US approximately 60%, the Philippines conviction rate is less than 10%, according to the European Union's Philippine Justice Support Program. The lawlessness, including rising violence against and kidnappings of foreigners, has hampered the country's ability to attract foreign investment and tourism to its impoverished, but often resource-rich and picture-perfect, hinterland areas.

 

Despite a decentralization drive, local governments still derive most of their income from the national government, accounting for 90% in the provinces, 70% in the cities and 86% in municipalities. A recent Asia Foundation survey raised questions about budget transparency issues, concluding that "much work needs to be done to improve local governments' public disclosure systems". It noted that information on budgets, expenditures, and financial reports are still not shared with the general public.

 

To curb abuse and restore rule by law in the provinces, Aquino will need to show a hitherto undemonstrated brand of strong leadership. Aquino failed to distinguish himself as an authoritative legislator during his years in the House of Representatives and Senate, and people familiar with his management style say he inherited more of his mother's reticence than his father Ninoy Aquino's oratory and tendency towards confrontation.

 

That was apparent to some in Aquino's duck-and-hide handling of the recent hostage crisis in Manila that resulted in the deaths of a number of foreign tourists by a disgruntled police officer and his bumbling diplomacy in the aftermath that unnecessarily stoked bilateral tensions with China, the country's largest provider of official development assistance.

 

If he remains devout to his reform rhetoric, Aquino will soon find himself working at loggerheads with political, legal and law-enforcement systems that are effectively broken, particularly at the provincial and local levels where his promise of political change resonated most deeply. The Maguindanao massacre case, which his government has referred to as a "litmus test" for the judicial system, will due to legal maneuvers likely last longer than Aquino's six-year tenure.

 

One senior Manila-based diplomat suggests that tackling provincial clans won't be enough to live up to popular expectations and that Aquino must challenge the "De La Salle-UP crowd", a reference to the country's top two universities' politically and commercially influential alumni, to achieve genuine reform.

 

Some believe that Manila's elites could instead reach a consensus under Aquino and lend their support to reforms that modernize the bureaucracy and economy and in the process increase the size of the economic pie they now dominate. Rallying them around measures that promote more social justice, wealth redistribution and human rights, if history is a guide, will meet stiff resistance.

 

Because Aquino hails from a well-educated family clan with vested interests in land holdings and private business, similar to the outgoing Arroyo, his commitment to justice and reform is still uncertain. Although his mother's time in power is now viewed nostalgically, she failed to achieve crucial land and other wealth redistributing reforms.

 

As the next generation of Aquinos enters Malacanang Palace, despite the euphoria and promise, there is a real risk that despair will outlast hope and that once again Filipinos will have bowed before a false messiah.

I don't know if a worldwide television audience viewing of 8 innocent foreign nationals getting machine gunned and sledge hammered to death on Philippine Soil, in our most visited tourist landmark should be classified as a "little thing"...

 

This is the worst of a worse case scenario for any president, in any country, in any time of history...

Cumonyou this is a Dear Pinoy thread and you're suppossed to give your opinion and suggestion to nonoy and not to the poster.

 

Cut and paste articles as long as it is relevant to the topic is not at all violation to the rules.

 

Anyway back to the topic,

 

Dear nonoy,

 

how come you fired the Pag-asa chief without any due process and you cannot do the same thing to your chosen people kahit obvious na yung kapalpakang ginawa nila.

 

Bakit ba kailangang hatiin ang obligasyon sa DILG? Yan ba ay pagtanaw ng utang na loob sa Samar and Balay group kaya kailaangan parehas silang may maiupong tao dyan?

Dear ABNoy,

 

Ah ganoon pala? Kung susundan natin yung logic ng isa mong supporter dito, aba'y mas lamang sayo si Gloria kasi naalala ko MAS MARAMI syang kalaban, ikumpara mo naman yung popularity rating mo sa kanya.. pakisabi mo sa isa mong supporter dito, hindi porke't maraming kalaban eh nasa tama na, kaya maraming kalaban dahil puro kapalpakan pinaggagawa mo sa malacanang. $@$%!!

dear Pnoy,

 

i have read dito sa MTC na nakakahiya na raw sa mundo ang nangyayari sa administrasyon mo...i guess the world is not listening because oversubscribe pa ang offering ng philippine bonds, foreign investments have increase and initial figures show a better future for our economy...

 

Dear ABNoy,

 

 

Pakitanong nga dyan sa supporter mo kung kaninong barbero naman nya nakuha yang statement nya? May tanong na rin ako, Asan na yung sinasabi ni Joey Salceda na forecast nya na lalago ang GDP at private investment ng bansa under your watch by almost 700 BILLION PESOS in the first 18 months pagkaupo mo as president, or roughly 38 BILLION PESOS A MONTH! ano na nangyari?! Asan na yung investment na pinagyayabang nyo nung kampanya? pangakong napako?

Dear Pnoy,

 

Bakit ka hinahanapan ng resulta ng ekonomiya agad? Wala ka pang 100 araw sa palasyo diba? Pnoy, mas ok na bisyo ang manigarilyo kaysa sa mag-finger ng pwet! :lol:

 

Dear ABNoy,

 

Kelan ka ba umupo bilang presidente ng bansa, aba'y humihingi ka pa ng partida? First 100 days daw? So hindi ka muna dapat upakan sa kapalpakan mo dahil kumbaga sa basketball "not counted" yung first 99 days mo.. Eh sino ba nagsabi na 645 billion pesos na private investment na dadagsa sa unang 18 buwan mo sa palasyo diba yung palaka na si Joey Salceda na tumalon sa partido mo nung eleksyon na dahilan sa pagkapanalo mo sa bicol region...Hinahanap ko lang naman yung resulta kasi kung 645 billion sa isa't kalahating taon, lalabas na 36 billion a month na private investment, oh ilang buwan ka na dyan sa pwesto? halos 3 buwan so times 3, ineexpect ko na meron nang roughly 107 BILLION PESOS na bagong investment sa bansa simula nung ikaw ay umupo. Ang tanong: MERON NGA BA? ASAN NA?

 

NagtatanongLaang!

Hoy Noy!

 

In fairness naman kay Hellyeah, di ikaw ang paghanapan ng economic performance sa first 100 days mo.

 

Lahat ng economic performance ng bansa natin ngayon (4-7% quarterly growth), hanggang 1st Quarter of 2011, ay resulta ng mga ginawa ng nakaraang administrasyon.

 

Kaya sabihin mo dyan sa amateur mong Finance Secretary Purisima, tumahimik na sya sa propaganda nya, wala pa syang puedeng ipagmalaki ngayong taong ito!

Dear Pnoy,

 

Wala akong naalala na humihingi ka ng partida o dapat talaga palakasin ang edukasyon dahil daming hirap ng umintindi! Sabi nga ni Joey Salceda first 18 months nakaka-ilang buwan ka na ba? Dapat siguro pagtuunan din ng pansin ang math dahil marami rin ang hirap sa pagbibilang bwekekekekeke! noy, may nasasaktan pa rin dahil noong si Joey Salceda ay nasa Lakas-NUCD ang bawat sabihin nya ay nag sisigawan ng alleluia ang mga kapartido, ng tumalon sa ibang partido ang mga taga Lakas (Wala ng Lakas) ay wala ng bilib kay Salceda! Hay politika nga naman! Mayroon akong kilala na ang tatay ay taga-timpla ng kape sa Lakas-NUCD at ang daming prediksyon bago mag-eleksyon and guess what PALPAK lahat pati ang kandidato nila PALPAK! Bwekekekekekeke!

 

Noy, mukhang may nakaka-miss kay NagtatanongLang, kung kilala mo siya sana palabasin mo ulit dito sa MTC! Bwekekekekekke!

Dear PNoy,

 

Basta gawin mo ang tama sa pilipinas, katulad ng ginagawa mo ngayon. hwag mong pansinin ang mga talak dito ng talak na talunan. kahit anong gawin ay kontra sila kasi ang gusto nilang kandidato ay natalo. hahanap sila ng mali mo. titigil at sasawa din mga kontrabida. wala ng kredibilidad mga iyan.

 

at kung kayo magkabilang panig ay nagpapalitan at nag aaway lang sa palitan ng salita, bakit hindi kayo magusap at magkita sa 1 lugar at maintindihan kung sino talaga sa inyo ang bida. magsuntukan na lang kayo.puro kayo kritiko ng kritiko dyan at keso bobo si Pnoy. Eh hindi nyo naman alam ang solusyon sa problema ng pilipinas. ay naku..magsitigil na nga kayo dyan.

noong SONA, ang sabi ninyo ni lito banayo ng NFA, may over-importation daw ng bigas....

ngayon, bakit parang iba na ang tono ni banayo? kesyo kukulangin daw tayo ng bigas next year kaya kailangan mag-import ng mahal na bigas.

 

 

hindi ba obvious na gaguhan ang nangyayari???

 

Dear ABNoy,

 

Actually naunahan lang ako ni jopoc, napanuod ko rin kanina yan sa news, ako ay nagtataka din, parang nung nakaraang 2 buwan lang daldal kayo ng daldal lalo na yan si peluka, este Banayo sa media na nagkaroon ng over-importation ng bigas, abay bakit ngayon ay tila iba na ang tono ng ngawa nyo at sinasabi nyo na kukulangin tayo sa bigas at namomroblema kayo dahil ayaw na mag export ng Vietnam ng bigas at halos dumoble na ang presyo ng bigas galing Thailand at kinakailangan mag import tayo ng bigas...Ano ba talaga ABNoy? Grandstanding lang ba yung nangyaring pahayag nung nakaraang 2 buwan na may over importation? Mula sa Comms group mo, hanggang DILG ngayon pati ba naman sa NFA magulo pa rin?

 

Isa lang ang kahulugan nyan: MAHINA KA TALAGANG LIDER! namo!

dear pnoy,

 

speaking before the makati business club last friday, you mentioned na dapat meron kang inappoint sa isang key position na buti na lang hindi natuloy kasi madami atang baho yung supposedly appointee mo or something like that. geez, do you really have to report this nonsense to a group of businessmen? what's the point?

 

i wish you'd be more statesmanlike when speaking before the business community.
