Duterte's Presidency : Expectations, Controversies, Rants, Etc.

What is there to fear about the national ID? Unless, you are an enemy of the state or a criminal, there is nothing to fear about the national ID.

Siguro naman hindi nyo na ma deny na effect ng TRAIN yun inflation. 8 months in since the TRAIN law was approved and we have 7 months of constantly increasing inflation.

Train is definitely a punishment for the poor. Kawawa mahihirap dyan. On a lighter side, i think the national ID system is helpful for the Filipinos.

Duterte signs National ID System; Palace assures safeguards in PhilSys

https://news.mb.com.ph/2018/08/06/duterte-signs-national-id-system-palace-assures-safeguards-in-philsys/

Malacañang said that the public has nothing to worry about when their information is consolidated in one database as there are laws that would safeguard their data.

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque made the statement as President Duterte signed the much-anticipated Philippine ID System (PhilSys) in Malacañang Monday afternoon.

This ID would be very helpful. Especially sa mga mahihirap who can not afford passports or driver licenses. We commend the govt for this. Sana lang fool proof ang data privacy to protect the citizens at hindi magamit sa mali

President Rodrigo Duterte has fired 20 military officials, including top brass of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), over alleged corruption activities such as anomalous and ghost projects at the V. Luna Medical Center in Quezon City, Malacañang said Monday.

Presidential Spokeserson Harry Roque said Duterte has ordered the relief of 20 officials after “it was brought to the President’s attention that alleged corruption activities have been taking place at the V. Luna Medical Center.”

Among the at least 20 officials, Roque has only identified two so far.

“President Duterte has ordered relief and court martial proceedings against top miltiary brass, which includes Brig. Gen. Edwin Leo Torrelavega, Commander of the AFP Heath Service Command (AFPHSC), Col. Antonio Punzalan, Commander of the V. Luna Medical Center, Chiefs of Management and Fiscal Office and the Logistics office of the AFPHSC among others,” he said in a Palace briefing.

The Palace official also said Duterte has since read the report of the Presidential Anti-Corruption Commisiion (PACC) and the AFP.

“Based on the reports, several high ranking officials and employees of the V. Luna Medical Center, Health Service Command of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, undertook anomalous purchases of equipment and engaged in fraudulent transactions, including ghost-purchasing, splitting of contracts to circumvent mandatory bidding processes, and conceiving fictitious suppliers with a total amount of P1,491,570.00,” Roque said.

good! but they should be prosecuted too....

 

 

 

Your Driver's License ID has your address.

 

I can safely bet that you never complained about that fact before.

 

 

yes, but drivers license is not a required ID.... you may choose not to avail one, especially if you do not drive.

[jopoc]

question:

 

bakit pag mga small time adik at pushers, lintek ang mura at galit ni digong, pero pag big time, as is billions worth, tahimik si idol nyo?

[camiar]

 

 

good! but they should be prosecuted too....

 

If you read the post again, the President ordered relief and court martial proceedings. Court Martial means procecution. Just letting you know.

 

 

 

yes, but drivers license is not a required ID.... you may choose not to avail one, especially if you do not drive.

 

Your issue is that your home address should not be shown in the ID.

 

It's irrelevant if the Diver's License ID is mandatory or not. It is still a National ID and its computer records are stored in government archives.

 

Palusot pa kasi. The more appropriate response from you should have been, "OO nga ano...."

Whatever happened to "walang corruption" sa gobyernong Duterte? That's almost 5X higher lost to corruption than it was 7 years ago...

Bumanat ka na naman nang di mo naiintindihan.

 

Duterte is not claiming that there will be zero corruption. Corruption is already there for generations. He clearly said he will not tolerate corruption, meaning, he will not cover up corrupt activities of government officials even if they are his political allies.

 

More cases are being uncovered by COA specifically because the present administration do not cover them up.

agree to this.

 

ever wondered why COA is soooo ACTIVE now sa tinagal tagal ng existence nila sa mga nagdaang pangulo? Because no one is pressuring them to release such findings.

 

Andami ng naging pangulo, bakit ngayon lang napansin at napupuri ng maigi ang COA kumpara dati against Govt transactions? Because previous admins tend to cover and pressure them and most of the time nasusuhulan.

Isang malaking LOL. How narrow is your definition of "corruption"? Ilan na ang officials niya ang sinibak niya sa corruption at binalik muli sa ibang government agencies? Ano yun "I got your backs" na pinagsasasabi niya sa mga kapulisan? Ano ang statement niya sa DOT/Tulfo scandal? Pinagmumumura ba niya sina Tulfo? Oo, pinapa imbestigahan niya kuno. Pero yun CHR pinagmumura mura niya pag tinutulan sya, pero pag kakampi niya ang nahuling nagnanakaw sa kaban ng bayan, soft-handed approach lang, no? pft.

 

Tsaka COA is an independent body, 'no. Anong pinagsasasabi niyo dyan na dahil kay Duterte yan kaya madami silang na a uncover na anomalies? LMAO.

Wala na naman sa hulog ang sagot mo.

 

Your naivete is really apparent here. You failed to consider that COA can be pressured (or bribed?) by the Administration to be silent on their findings. They can also be "persuaded" to be selective and release findings that negatively affect the political opposition only. Some incriminating COA reports can even be arranged to be reversed. Abnoy's administration was very good at that.

 

But recently, increasing number of COA findings are being released to public knowledge. This is mainly because the present administration does not exert pressure to silence them.

Oh... is that like how the CHR can also be pressured (bribed?) by the Administration to be silent on their findings? Still a LOL.

like i said, the driver's license is NOT mandatory unlike the new system...

 

even some office IDs, whcih are not mandatory, have addresses too.

 

 

there lies the difference......

 

kung ayaw mo na ilagay ang address mo sa ID, wag ka kumuha ng lisensya

pero yung national ID, pwede ka bang mag hindi?

Driver's license is a national record. Just like your Passport. Your address, and other personal information are there. Many government agencies, including the Police and Military, have access to that information.

 

It is irrelevant whether it is a mandatory ID or not.

 

What is relevant is that your Driver's License ID has your personal information and that information is available to others who may use it against your personal interest. This is the same as your issue vs. National ID. So what else is there to lose? You've already compromised your personal information when you got your Driver's License, or your Passport, or your SSS/GSIS ID.
