Congratulations Raissa and Alan..Let’s hope de media would give some attention to this book so it can be used to ”save some young Filipino soles” for not voting the ”unknown”
A most reasonable note. I was thinking of a lot of reasons, including illness. Well, we now know, and it is worth the wait. And as @Caliphman wrote below, “the timing of the book’s release is impeccable.” Looking forward to picking up a copy at the National Book Store. Of course I will be happy to read some teasers or preview here.
The jewelry confiscated from the Marcoses remain a singular manifestation of the misguided priorities of the Marcos presidency during his reign,” commission Chairman Richard Amurao said Friday.
what an idiot! sorry po, can’t help myself. me talking about bong marcos, son of fat imelda who used to drip in expensive jewelries while her own people starved. good thing the jewels are to be auctioned off. those buying the jewels, no shame attached po, dahil the proceeds will go to rehabilitate the people harmed by the twisted marcos couple. fat imelda will get no percentage of the sale, she may cry her eyes out, but she’ll live and maybe buy another set of jewels, but not so expensive this time. son of fat imelda said closure is not… Read more »
i prefer that we don’t sell the jewelries. i wish we just build a martial law museum and put all of the jewelries there along with her shoes, and other articles from that era. it will help future generations be aware of the marcos dictatorship.
maybe we can go to kickstarter and build the museum ourselves
if bong marcos is brave, he’ll be innovative and exploratory: go where no marcoses have gone before. and talk with our alan and raissa and ask their opinion on what he must do to let go of the martial law years.
May that help in lessening what one writer termed as “despicable amnesia” with the lessons of history, especially of the Dictatorship/Martial Law… May the force be always with you…!
I sure hope your book title presages the near and far future of the Philippines, raissa. While many in your blogsite incessantly focus against candidate Poe, the threat of a dictatorship by Apo Lite or Duterte looms heavy on the horizon. Alan and you have steadfastly if not often singlehandedly shed a light on the evil of the Marcos dictatorial regime thru your articles and also exchanges with Marcos loyalists and trolls here. But so much more has to be done, and the most recent SWS survey shows Bongbong pulling even for the lead in the vice-presidential race. The timing… Read more »
My impression is that a very significant portion of the voting public either ignore or are simply misinformed of the Marcos-Binay-Duterte-GMA interlocking political agenda.
It is my fervent hope that the upcoming formal presidential debates will reveal the true (and diabolical) political agendas of this powerful and influential machiavellian “barkada”.
To accomplish this, it will take a great deal of boldness, stratagem, and passion. Hopefully, Raissa will get an invite.
nice design: bloody red and barb wire. the “tilamsik na dugo on white NEVER AGAIN speaks volume. sa cover palang puede ng to judge the book by it’s cover. oh i remember what you wrote before about the barb wire but wait, where is the (wrest) watch? ;-D
I think, though, that your congratulations has to be shared. Alan is very much a part of this book. As well as my book designer Felilx Mago Miguel, and countless others who made this book at all possible.
Congratulations Raissa, I am SO PROUD of you. I will definitely get a copy of your book. Sana you invite me to your book launching so I can get your John Hancock:). God bless and keep you and Alan always in the palm of His protective hands.

I like that SOLES, as in the timeless of ROBREDO. Go RORO ?
There goes my spell checker again: TSINELAS not timeless, tsinelas para sa ating lahat, sa ikauunlad ng bayan , let’s ALL go Roxas – Robredo ?
oot but talking about media…that’s how media is putting negative to Daang Matuwid……………..http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/765091/brothels-thrive-beside-projects-of-daang-matuwid#art_disc.
I’m assuming the book will be available on Amazon. When will it be released? As a fan of yours, am looking forward to reading your new book.
I will ask :)
Maging available ba siya online?
Thanks!
More power!
I will ask.

I like the visuals of your comment. You’re so right about that decaying, corpulent matriarch!

Delicado yun. What if Marcos-Marcos win what would you think will happen to the contents of that museum?
if bong marcos is brave, he’ll be innovative and exploratory: go where no marcoses have gone before. and talk with our alan and raissa and ask their opinion on what he must do to let go of the martial law years.
Looking forward to this.
Thanks.

Thanks, Marmee.
I think, though, that your congratulations has to be shared. Alan is very much a part of this book. As well as my book designer Felilx Mago Miguel, and countless others who made this book at all possible.
I will name many of them soon.
Congratulations Raissa, I am SO PROUD of you. I will definitely get a copy of your book. Sana you invite me to your book launching so I can get your John Hancock:). God bless and keep you and Alan always in the palm of His protective hands.
