Halalan 2019

Yes, he may not be behind it but he could have stopped it. If he had the political will, the proliferation of these "sitios", which are effectively squatter colonies, can be stopped. This is Bautista's last term and I hope the next mayor will do a better job than the younger brother of Janice De Belen in Flordeluna.

He could not have stopped it.

 

Going after the professional squatting syndicate is beyond political will. Jun Simon started the squatter problem but none of the succeeding mayors had the "political will" to reverse the situation. Including Bistek.

 

Again, it is a matter of choice on who can do a better job. Who is running against Bistek?

The mayor controls the police. He can direct the police to take out these squatters, especially, the ones squatting on government land. However, he should have a relocation plan for the squatters.

 

I blame the incompetent and dumb Cory Aquino for squatter proliferation.

 

Bautista is forbidden to run since this is his third trrm. Joy Belmonte is one of the mayoralty candidates in QC.

Using the police is the city mayor's last resort. Demolition of squatter dwellings is a very politically sensitive issue.

 

The leftists and the professional squatter syndicates will use it as an excuse to escalate the issue and call it heartless repression of the poor.

 

They will incite a riot, provoke the police to shoot, hoping that somebody gets injured, or better yet, die. The media will have a grand time getting news mileage out of it.

 

The city government will lose the battle of emotions.

Being scared of leftists and professional squatter syndicates means that Bautista is a lame-duck mayor when it comes to making the difficult decisions.

 

Yes, maybe the media will have a grand time getting news mileage but do you think anyone will care about these squatters aside from the opportunistic leftists and "yellowtards"? If the media magnifies it and sees that it does not improve ratings, these media outfits would k*ll the issue as soon as possible.

 

Speaking of emotions, that is what the "yellows" are hoping for. Unfortunately for them, the Filipino has matured and don't just fall prey to these "yellowtards" who use emotion instead of reason to get the result they want.

I'm not saying they are scared of the leftists and professional squatters. But these groups are more powerful than the individual mayors.

 

These squatter coddlers have cultivated and developed tacit support from politicians at higher levels (national level politicians).

 

Did you ever see any congressman or senator openly siding with city governments in the demolition and clearing operations of squatters? No, because the leftists and professional squatter syndicates are selling the squatters' votes to these trapos. These people want to keep the poor in their miserable conditions to keep them dependent on the patronage system.

Reminds me of the time when a Davao sheriff went through with a court order to demolish a squatters area, when Mayor Sara Duterte later comes to the rescue and punches him several times in the face to the delight of the squatters.

Of course, the senators are not gonna intervene with squatters of a certain city or any city for that matter lest they be accused of meddling in the affairs of a city when they are supposed to be minding their business and making laws.

 

Regarding support from politicians, perhaps Akbayan or Makabayan or any "yellow" political organization who want the support of these squatters since they are slowly and surely becoming politically extinct.

bakit pag legitimate issues ang pinaguusapan, biglang nawawala yung mga grade-school trolls?

[rooster69ph]

bakit pag legitimate issues ang pinaguusapan, biglang nawawala yung mga grade-school trolls?

ang usaping character at integrity ng tumatakbong politko ba hindi legit issues?

 

 

sige sagutin mo nga...oo o hindi lang yan

[camiar]

Minsan ang hirap ng magtiwala Kasi sa una lang sila magaling. Sana this coming election 2019 yong kahit Hindi perpekto yong malulok basta may puso at marunong umunawa at gagawin lahat para sa mamayanan. Sa aking opinion Hindi pwedeng sila lang mag adjust para sa atin dapat tayong mga mamamayan marunong tayong makuntento at tumayo sa sarili natin wag natin iasa lahat sa gobyerno. Sa mga boboto sana piliin natin yong karapat-dapat wag tayong masilaw sa pera, panandalian Lang yan. Sana maluklok yong mga deserving at kayang pangatawanan at panindigan yong sinumpaan sa bayan.

Tama ka dyan.

 

Tingnan kung ano ang nagawa nila para sa kapakanan ng bayan. Yon ang gawing basehan kung karapat-dapat siya.

kaya nga ang tanong ko ... kung sa isang walang kakwenta-kwentang bagay eh kailangang magsinungaling paano mo ito pagkakatiwalaan.

 

 

 

madaling magbalatkayo ... character and integrity yan ang importante

Who would you vote for the upcoming election? Have you posted your list here?

[tk421]

Required ba? Nasa thread topic ba na kelangan i post dito yun full list?

 

Basta I have a list of those who I will NOT vote for that are non-negotiable. That's usually how I generate my list.

 

If you want a hint of who I'm NOT voting for, think of candidates who are/were 1) involved in corruption scandals, 2) clowns and/or paperweights, 3) liars. Figure out the rest for yourself.

Sara Duterte: Honesty should not be an election issue

 

Everybody lies anyway.

 

Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio had this to say Wednesday as she asserted that honesty should not be an issue in this years elections, defending her candidates under the regional party Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP) accused of dishonesty and corruption.
