We Are Awesome Thread

Ah para sa akin ba yung tanong na ilan major infra projects ang approved/implemented ni PNoy? Sirit na ko. Ilan?

 

If we assume kasi na hindi fake news ang data ng PPP Center, may 116 projects worth P1.64T ang na-approve ng NEDA Board sa panahon ni PNoy. Ayoko na lang himayin kung ilan dyan ang infra, at ayoko na lang din mag-assume kung ano ang considered as "major", kasi subject to each one's opinion ano ang pwede na ituring na "major". Kailangan ba bilyones, or ok na 100 milyon? Kasi para sa iba 1M lang malaking halaga na eh. Mapapa-away pa tayo dyan kaya wag na lang. Kung ilan ang actually implemented, ayoko na lang din himayin. Baka yung iba dyan alam naman yung sagot pero ayaw lang sabihin.

 

Now take note, sa mga nagbasa ng trivia ko, malalaman nyo na bago i-approve ng NEDA Board eh ina-approve muna yan ng NEDA ICC. So posible na meron na approved project ang NEDA ICC sa termino ng isang Pangulo na inaprubahan lang ng sumunod na Pangulo. Halimbawa nga nyan eh yung MRT7 na approved ng NEDA ICC ni GMA pero approved ng NEDA Board ni PNoy. At para sa mga walang karanasan sa pamahalaan, hindi madali magpalusot ng project na limpak limpak na salapi ang gugugulin kaya pinag-aaralan mabuti yan.

 

Pwede rin mangyari na meron na project na approved ng NEDA Board ng nakaraang Pangulo na nireview at inapprove ulit ng NEDA Board ng sumunod na Pangulo.

 

Kaya sirit na lang ko dun sa tanong. Masyado mahirap sagutin eh. Di pwede tanong yan sa Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader.

 

Napaisip din ako dun sa "save save save" term. Sinampahan ng kaso si PNoy dahil sa Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP). Nabobo na yata ako sa English kasi nasa isip ko ang ibig sabihin ng "disbursement" eh gumastos at ang "acceleration" ay bilisan. So ang translation ko sa DAP eh programa para bilisan ang pag-gastos. Di lang ako sure, pero parang kabaliktaran yata ng gastos yung save.

I have no problem on your answer. Maybe I should have quoted the original poster.

Kaya nga nagtaka ako why you quoted me and what you quoted.

During Pnoys term, he instituted budget reforms, as opposed to GMA's style of spending funds. Due to the reforms, he reduced funds in some, added a little in some, and the rest is reserved for emergencies like disasters and crisis management and foreign debts and deficits. The consequence is a lot of funds unspent, slower fund release and sometimes, underspent funds were returned to the National Treasury.

 

Most of the DAP funds became payments on the Corona impeachment case hindi naman sa projects. At kinasuhan siya sa DAP regardless kung saan niya ginamit yung podo kundi sinabi ng SC na unconstitutional ito pero ginamit pa rin,

[filibustero]

So... hindi naman talaga "save save save"? Reducing funds in some areas and increasing funds in other areas. Not sure, pero di ba yun nga yung "budgeting". Allocating limited resources, dahil di naman unlimited pera ng pamahalaan. After Ondoy and Yolanda i would think reasonable to increase standby funds for disasters. And i don't see anything wrong with servicing foreign debts, ayan nga at tumaas pa credit rating natin kasi ok daw tayo pautangin. To address the underspent funds, ayun they resorted to DAP pero nakuryente nga lang sila dun. Solution fail eh.

 

At yung DAP, di yan parang cash na winithdraw at pinapamudmod ng Pangulo sa senado at kongreso in a white envelope ala GMA. Realignment ng pondo yan to a govt project. As to amount or percentage, di ko alam kung magkano total ang nadisburse through DAP to be able to conclude most sa Corona impeachment nga napunta or not. Yoko naman manghula at baka ma-fake news pa ako.

di ako lawyer hearsay kapag walang eye witness eye witness lang ang pwede sa bribery and influence peddling more than one witness. Then a paper trail to make the eyewitness narrative strong. Papeles sa custom yan pwede na basta me eye witness

 

The eyewitness never witness on his own eyes that Paolo is involved. How credible is that.

[camiar]

court of justice magsasabi nun. If mali oh tama opinion ko. Gaya din ng opinion nyu korte din magsasabi kung tama kayo.

tignan natin saan punta kwentong ito.

It will go nowhere.

 

Even the witness said under oath that he doesn't have personal knowledge.

 

Hearsay.

 

You think congress will look further into it? I doubt it.

[camiar]

.

time will be the judge of that and whoever is in power.

Yes. It will be a very short time.

 

Give it two weeks, and the people will have lost interest on it.

[haroots2]

The court will not even consider him an eyewitness since he didn't witness it at all. Mapapahiya lang ang prosecutor Lahat rinig lang niya sa ibang tao thus its hearsay. He already said it all sa senate hearing under oath,

OK, kids. What did I say before? You should play fair with the non-reg members.

Dear Digong, sayang impluwensya mo. Sana ginagamit mo sa tama. Hindi para sa mga Marcos, Uson, Estrada, Arroyo. parang Aquino ka rin eh. mas may topak lang.

Dear Digong,

 

Sabi mo change is coming...

 

Sa obserbasyon ni Danny change has come ... change for the worst nga lang imbes na for the better.

Same as above. There are some good things that he has done (the free tuition for one).

 

But overall, as a nation builder, he's not doing anything significant on that front. Maybe he dreams of the Philippines as being the next North Korea.

Just monitor yung Build Build Build projects niya. May mga loans na rin para mapondohan ito.

Am not holding my breath, just like his promise to end the drug problem in 6 months.

 

Those loans he took will cost us more in the long run with so little gain. These projects you're saying he's building would become obsolete way before we can even pay 10% of that loan.

Please specify what would be obsolete on those projects?

nobody is ignoring the law except the lawless. Still me freedom sila allowed silang mag adik at pumatay allowed pulis to defend and hunt them down. Fair and square under our democracy.

 

Law says there must be due process. If police are ignoring that, it is outside the law. Therefore they are lawless.

 

Yes. They have the freedom to be drug addicts... but they do NOT have the freedom to k*ll ANYONE. Police are mandated to take them down, true. But my point is: are you really really sure the ones they are killing are drug addicts/pushers?

 

For all we know, they just randomly go through facebook or something and pick a victim. And since there's no transparency in their operations, there's really no way to verify if they are following the proper protocols.
