    • Yes, raissa you are MIA for a long time now. Hope everything is fine and that you and your family are safe. Take care and be safe

      • I have a feeling our raissa is held cyber hostage, her blog has been taken over by rogue elements, and is not allowed to visit her own blog, unless . . . there may have been threats made to her that if she will not pay certain amount of money, the identities of commenters and visitors of her blog will be published and made known to all and sundry. and that no matter how controversial, the contents of her private email will also be published.

        sorry po, my mind goes awol sometimes.

        p.s. I’ve heard what happened to the great david beckham, ex english soccer player and captain. he refused to pay millions and as result, the contents of his private emails were released and in them, david was saying something not very englishy kuno to the queen of england. that despite being made a sir of the realm, david used bad language kuno at nagmura sa queen behind her back. I dont know kung tutuo ba ito.

        • Will lawmakers include the law on Libel and libellers in the proposed bill on death penalty to fill up the vacant space on Plunder?

          In other news spots, the blogs are worst. Names are revealed also. Why would such an idea here be subject to reclusion perpetua or DEATH?

          . . . b’cause she’s is sweet and spicy in her work: journalism and blogging and interviewing atbpa.

          That’s probably why.

        • he, he, he, I have already a T-shirt with writings: I am already dead! so dont kill me.

          another T-shirts said, I see dead people! and they dont know they’re dead.

          I am a walking dead! said one more T-shirt.

          alms for the dead, says another more.

          respect for the dead!

          kiss a dead person – now!

  2. Phewww! Blaming Pres. Duterte for ‘xxx “It’s a shame that (Mr.) Duterte would not ‘lift a finger’ to help Filipino migrants who are in need,” said Filipino Migrant Center executive director Joanna Concepcion.’

    Illegal immigrants. Excuses for help: Sending money from abroad; exploited raw sila abroad; living in the shadows and in fear; called Filipinos ‘animals’ and from a ‘terrorist’ nation; “worsening poverty” and lack of jobs AND “to put food on their families’ tables back home

    In view of the above excuses, Pres. Duterte should help HELP illegal/undocumented Pinoys in USA. Yeowww!

    How many are they? About 500,000 to 1 Million lang? Yeowww! A tall task for Dutz.

    Bayan USA or Filipino Migrant Center and other organizations should instead focus on helping Filipino migrants NOT to be illegal or undocumented travelers abroad. Help on that.

    https://globalnation.inquirer.net/152213/fil-groups-slam-duterte-not-helping-pinoy-illegals

  3. Alleged extortion or BRIBERY is an attempt crime. An attempt corruption crime.

    Seldom is there an arrest on the culprit ON THE SPOT – should be done by the official.

    Requirement: 2 or more witnesses’ written statements under oath; Or video and/or video taped circumstances; the money (if any), and last – Incorruptibility by the arresting official.

    Be a VITAL.

    Doing the above saves a lot of other delayed investigations to thresh out the truth.

      • uy, itong si aquirre, fake kasi ang buhok, dapat mag-isip-isip na yong text is not verified. malay mo kagawa-gawaan lang ang text na yan ng anak ni manong na nagtatago sa singapore. just because manong owned the phone does not meant siya talaga ang nagpadala ng text. if manong from singapore wants to be believed, he should have affidabit, signed and date, and filed.

        fake hair, fake text, fake witnesses, aquirre knows all about them.

    • Suggestion on ATTEMPT CRIME of bribery: Congress should raise the maximum penalty of imprisonment but not less than 6 years and 1 day.

      Suggestion pa rin: If amount of money is P50M or more penalty imprisonment of 12 years to life or reclusion perpetua (30 Years!) without parole or pardon. No Bail.

      This might minimize bribery crimes in the government. Cut down corruption.

      • Look. . . ’tis true that lawyers are also poor witnesses anywhere!

        It is different when a lawyer is cross-examined specially as a suspect for a crime than doing the asking.

        Funny incredible answers as shown in the LINK below.

        ‘I brought home the money but I didn’t know anything about it’ one BI Com lawyer answers. Huh?

        Caught in flagrante! by CCTV tape. said Sen. De Lima. Tama.

        . . . like one lawyer former VIP in WH about whether he had sex with her or not. Answer: I did not engage in sex. [ only blow jobbing]

        Lawyers are also incredibly funny witnesses on many times.

  4. No more Opn TOKHANG! PNP is 40% corrupt acc to the President.

    Hindi rin na VETT before the operation ang PNP like the USA ban on immigrant travelers.

    Mag NOVETTING kapatid na pampamilya. Failure at 7000+ dead ejk victims.

    Writ of Amparohang is the new game. Stay 1km away please !

    Salamat! ‘Tis good to listen and heed to wiser and cool ideas.

    • Extrajudicial Executions in the Philippine’s “War on Drugs” Is it going to stop soon per PNP order?

      Try to think deeply on the photo of one’s love for the poor EJKilled victim. Think. Think about how love is shown. Whether the victim was guilty or not, should the killers kill?

      THINK.

        • I think, it will be very hard for kapolisan to monitor their own. they are cliquey after all. they went to the same school, attended the same courses and have built sound comradeship over the years. they share lunches and rides, often protected each other’s back too. they are also ninongs and ninangs to fellow kapolisan’s children, attended birthdays and anniversaries together. etc. for kapolisan to suddenly look over their shoulder in case fellow kapolisan is monitoring what they’re doing, the tendency there is to let it slip by. would they really report on their own and be traitor? and in doing so, other kapolisan may not look kindly on those monitoring and hold grudge against them.

          it’s a small community the kapolisan, they have intel and knew what each other is doing. they have access to the same computer database and programs, and can easily suss out a particular polis (one entrusted to keep eye on them) through their own network of informants and spies. and may put contract on particular polis to get him/her out of the way. they may even run data like phone checks just to see which polis is monitoring who.

          I think, polis should just do the right thing even if no one is looking over their shoulder, enforce law and order and not abuse their power.

  5. This is my last post. There’s a point where one gets fatigue, absorb dust and negative emotions.

    I am posting this piece written by a Korean national. He is right in some . Be godful, ( not godawful) the teachings are great but really don’t let leave everything to god. The country has become more prayerful but what good does it do if you keep quiet about the flow of blood?

    http://www.pinoytribune.com/2017/01/south-korean-to-filipinos-you-go-to.html
    “The Philippines is the most “religious” country in Asia, they say. But there are too many poor people here. People go to church every Sunday to pray, but nothing has been changed.”

    Take care, the drums are beating for the year of the ROOSTER. Riches and positions would be insignificant soon. Goodbye,peace!

    • Mam Netty..i did read something in Raissa’s facebook that she has a write black out or something….
      Maybe temporarily she could have some ”guest writers” like Leona to keep the page ”alive”?

    • People in the Philppines appear to go to church just to say they have been. They invariably arrive late, or very late and too frequently fiddle with their phones and text during the Mass. I speak from weekly experience and frustrated disappointment.

      • @Ancient Mariner, we have the same observation. Some even get bored to lengthy homilies.

        • One sob priest dances as a girl the Cha-Cha at the same time singing like a girl instead of giving a Homily.

          Bayot pala!

          Like I am dying with laughter and angry. But JESUS whispers KEEP SHUT UP! So I do.

          Another, one time woman was serving at the Altar with the priest. Her skirt was sooo SHORT a few inches below her butt! But with enticing legs naman.

          ‘Buti naka sotana si Father Young!

          Samples of what takes place in our RCCs during the Mass.

          Pray more indeed! And put more love for what you see.

        • my sister goes to church just so everybody can see her new dress! then, she swears on the way home, and hates the traffic. she is religious and has memorized all the psalms and verses, but then, is short of fuse at madaling magalit.

        • when I was at school, the sisters and nuns insisted we go to church and hear mass every sunday, and they kept tabs too. those who did not go will get poorer grades and wont be looked kindly upon. it’s not nice being ignored by the sisters and nuns. no matter how high you raised your hands to answer questions, you are rarely called and barely asked to join organizations, and your presence sa school annual is pinangayo, bihirang bihira. I was one of those that got tolerated only because my fees kept getting paid.

          exception to not attending sunday mass is when you’re sick and dying.

        • as adult, I go to church now and then. old habits die hard. and sometimes, in the quietness of the church, the dying smell of fresh flowers and glow of flickering candles, I find peace and tranquility like no other.

      • I would hope that they don’t go to church to bring their clothes rather than themselves. I also hope they pray for the safety of everyone from the oppressive and deadly so called war on drugs.

  6. Ms. Raissa’s last blog post is December 2016; is she on sabbatical leave or something?

    I hope her long absence on this site hasn’t got to do with that threat posted by a Duterte diehard on her facebook page.

    • I wonder if she’s on Hibernation just like what happened to Joe amps blog.
      The last blog from sir Alan on abscbn was last 7th Jan.

        • they should know that raissa is not the problem. she only reports what is there in plain sight. if raissa will not do it, others will. so, no point really in gagging her.

        • having said the above, manghaharana na lang ako para kay raissa.

          kamingaw sa payag

          kamingaw sa payag, kining atong gipuy-an
          sa duha ta ka damgo.

          hain nang imong kahayag nga sa ato mitug-an
          sa gabiing tanan.

          mag-unsa kami kung mawala na ikaw!
          unsay puy-an sa payag nga gibiya-an mo man lang?

          asa ko man ikaw pangita-a karon . . .

    • Let’s all say prayer that Ma’m Raissa and Alan are okay. . . in very good health.

      We miss you both.

      • Mam/sir Leona,
        Sabi po ni mam raissa meron daw syang WRITER’S BLOCK. pero nawawala na daw.

        Pinay710

  7. The Man in the White House is not joking.
    Green card holders of any foreign country who want to come back to the US are continually re-vetted.

    The seven countries banned are Iraq, Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen…PH MAYBE NEXT as long as Digong is there :)

    That’s it folks; citizenship and goodwill of another adoptive country should be taken seriously. It is not any game nor a right.
    This is the case of be careful what you wish for.

    //www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-immigration-greencard-idUSKBN15C0KX?feedType=RSS&feedName=domesticNews

    • Trump’s EO was Guilliani’s work that Trump believed. No proof that immigrants from the 7 countries have TIES with terrorism. Lawyer pa naman si G.

      Thus, a mess created ensnaring poor huddled travelers. In short, a guessing game!

      NO PROOF! No evidence whatsoever.

      • No Leona , this is all Trump’s work and desire to make the country safe from anyone and screen the persons behind the paper documents. It is called vetting.He is not targeting Muslims, NOT ALL Muslims are terrorist, it just happened that those terrorists came from some of these countries.

        I am for Trump because he is doing what is good for his country as a president should do. Not killing them and protecting them from harms way.
        Only 100 of those stranded were detained from thousands of returnees and from these countries that were turned away for 90-120 days until all of them are vetted , screened again, finger printed, issued new passports on a clean slate for a start and this would be the new normal. If people are legitimate and nothing to hide , no fear and become safe.
        Those that make this a theme for anti- this, and anti- that are the sore losers and trying to get back with the old evil and unsafe ways. Some are those that have been given the freebies and state welfare that are now being cancelled because they are fraudulent.

        There’s a recent shooting and killings here in a Quebec Mosque, even we are not safe because evil people are everywhere. They were found to be from Syria with Quebecois accent.IMMIGRANTS SHOULD ADAPT AND ASSIMILATE TO THE COUNTRY where they are kindly hosted, AND SHOULD NOT INVADE the country’s govt.
        Ours and yours is a different story, it is becoming a failed state everyday.
        And those of us who try to give our voices are getting tired and laughed at for its the only thing we can do. Even Bato the Rock could melt in tears or is it only for a show? PERHAPS.

    • WH has come out with new clarifs that those with green cards are exempted from the new ban.

      Okay to be inconvenienced for a couple of hours or short days under detention upon one’s arrival.

      Just bear with the disorder. . . it will disappear later soon. Sorry.

    • WH has come out with new clarifs that those with green cards are exempted from the new ban.

    • 7 countries banned, but not saudi arabia where 9/11 bombers originated. apparently, trump has businesses in saudi arabia, hence the exemption yata. also, afghanistan is not included in the ban, where the talibans are and encroaching on pakistan.

  8. Proposed bill Death Penalty. HB04717. It is said:

    Ito raw ang dahilan sa pagsulong ni Capiz representative Frednil Castro at ilan pang kongresista ng Housebill 01 o ang pagbabalik ng death penalty sa bansa. Sa panukala, nadagdagan ang sakop na “heinous crimes,” x x x

    Pagbabalik ng death penalty, tatalakayin sa ‘Bawal ang Pasaway . . . Ibalik ang Bitay? Bawal ang Pasaway kay Mareng Winnie Lunes, 10:15 PM sa GMA News TV

    Ibalik ang death penalty. But what is the proposed death penalty bill saying? Look at HB04727 by Lower House (Congress) on various Articles of the Revised Penal Code, as Amended when as to penalties for each crime enumerated. Samples:

    . . . ‘SEC. 3. xxx Accordingly, Act No. 3815, as amended, otherwise known as the “Revised Penal Code”, and other special penal laws, are hereby amended for the purpose of imposing the death penalty on heinous crimes enumerated under this Act.

    – ‘SEC. 4. xxxTreason, is further amended to read as follows:
    . . . shall be punished by reclusion perpetua TO DEATH xxx’

    And so on to the other Articles of the Code. . . reclusion perpetua TO DEATH: Qualified Piracy (Art. 123), Qualified Bribery (Art. 211-A), Parricide (Art. 246), Murder (Art. 248), Infanticide (Art. 255), Rape (Art. 266-A), Kidnapping (Art. 267)’

    Plunder (RA No. 7080) also ‘reclusion perpetua</i) TO DEATH'.

    Some crimes, like Maintenance of a Den, Dive or Resort (SEC. 6, etc., RA No. 9165 Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002) – life imprisonment TO DEATH

    Same with other special laws. . . life imprisonment available.

    So, in short, death penalty bill as proposed DOES NOT imposed the death penalty strictly as the ONLY and imposable penalty but gives the convicted persons first: a safe path – reclusion perpetua – 30 Years; or life imprisonment per jurisprudence also 30 Years.

    Victims of heinous crimes will not get on the convicts a straight penalty of DEATH but something lesser as the courts may think imposable for certain other reasons in laws.

    Also, per jurisprudence, no convict shall serve more than 40 Years in prison if one was sentenced to many reclusion perpetua or life imprisonment.

    Now, in the presentation of evidence for these heinous crimes, before trial courts, appealed to appellate courts, with the strict rules on EVIDENCE in criminal cases, shouldn’t the rules ALSO be relaxed so prosecutors be not hampered in seeking the TO DEATH penalty? Many criminal cases are not desposed with death penalties due to lack of EVIDENCE for that.

    Isn’t it time for Congress ‘BY LAW’ amend also the Rules on Evidence on criminal cases? Does Congress have that power under the Constitution?

    If we read the fundamental law, Congress can though the SC has also that power under the Judiciary Department – ART. VIII Constitution 1987.

    It is found in – ‘(2) Review, revise, reverse, modify, or affirm on appeal or certiorari, as the law or the Rules of Court may provide, final judgments and orders of lower courts xxx’ of SEC. 5 Art. VIII Judiciary Department, 1987 Constitution.

    So, Rules on EVIDENCE, as part of the Rules of Court, by mandate of Congress can be RELAXED under that authority, in a way of ‘repealing’ all jurisprudence by SC on the point, BY LAW.

    These are points suggested if and when death penalty will be the law of the land. But, as found in HB04727, first, it appears that it is NOT so as TO DEATH PENALTY.

    Second, rules on EVIDENCE needs to be amended by relaxing the strict rules on criminal cases for purposes of getting the death as the penalty imposable.

    Third, the HB04727 should also provide that jurisprudence of a convict not to serve for more than 40 years should be REPEALED. Let a death penalty convict serve UNTIL DEATH if a lesser penalty than death is imposed. But as suggested, all HEINOUS CRIMES should have only ONE PENALTY: death.

    If HB04727 declares as a POLICY to ‘foster peace and order and ensure obedience to its authority, to protect life, liberty and property and to promote the general welfare which are essential for the enjoyment by all the people xxx”

    . . . ‘Towards this end, in the interest of justice, public order and rule of law xxx the Congress finds compelling reasons to impose the death penalty for heinous crimes‘

    . . . then death and no other lesser penalty.

    Bottom line. . . will this country have the DEATH PENALTY law? Will the Senate agree with Lower House?

    This opn is just to bring out that the proposed bill HB04727 is not consistent to impose the death penalty.

  9. Are You a Rooster?

    If you are, then you are one of the animals! The Rooster ranks tenth out of the 12 animals in the 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle. 2017 is a year of the Rooster.

    2017 Is a Fire Rooster Year — What ”Fire Rooster Year” Means – In Chinese astrology, each zodiac year is not just associated with an animal sign, but also one of five elements: Gold (Metal), Wood, Water, Fire, or Earth.

    So, if you are, you are on fire in 2017! Many cops are on fire now. If you were born in January or February.

    ‘Roosters are always active, amusing, and popular within a crowd. Roosters are talkative, outspoken, frank, open, honest, and loyal individuals. They like to be the center of attention and always appear attractive and beautiful.

    Roosters are happiest when they are surrounded by others, whether at a party or just a social gathering. They enjoy the spotlight and will exhibit their charm on any occasion.

    Roosters expect others to listen to them while they speak, and can become agitated if they don’t. Vain and boastful, Roosters like to brag about themselves and their accomplishments.

    Their behavior of continually seeking the unwavering attention of others annoys people around them at times.’

    Are you a Rooster?

    Roosters’ careers: ‘Good career choices for Roosters are newsreader, sales person, restaurant owner, hairdresser, public relations officer, farmer, athlete, teacher, waiter, journalist, travel writer, dentist, surgeon, soldier, fireman, security guard, and police officer.

    Police officer is a Rooster. ‘People born in a year of the Rooster will have more woe than weal in 2017.’

    新年快乐鸡！

  10. http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/865896/lacson-exposes-more-police-scams

    Hayyy! Ask lang: PNP, what’s happening to our Chief General?

    – ‘Close circuit television footage of a police officer planting “shabu” (crystal meth) in table drawers inside an office was presented by Sen. Panfilo Lacson on Thursday to show that the kidnapping and murder of South Korean Jee Ick-joo was not an isolated case of “tokhang-for-ransom,” or police extortion under cover of President Rodrigo Duterte’s war on illegal drugs.’

    Planting by cops is fun like rice…in shabu!

    Ginoooooo! Kanuska mo kami ma salvar? !

    Gi tiaw-tiawan na kami! Matuod Nila nga ka-arun.

    Ginoooooo! Pastilan gyug!

    • kung mahimo lang gyud, di nato purwesyuhim si bato, tingaleg, he, he, he, he’ll treat himself to another lively concert, the one with vice ganda this coming valentines. bato will be enjoying himself again, laughing and singing while the kapolisan goes on rampage.

      unya, yong mga bagitong polis pa ang pinagkakainitan. sila ngayon ang pinasasailalim sa training and may have to stay longer in training. habang yong mga polis na matagal na sa trabaho at talagang mamamatay tao ay hindi pinasasailalim ng extensive training, o kaya remedial training on law and order.

      god knows bato needs to undergo further training too, take refresher courses on how to manage bent polis and how to inspire confidence in his men.

      too much hapi-hapi makes bato a dull polis.

      • I have not forgotten that bato also went to las vegas upang panuorin ang fight ni pakyaw. enjoy na enjoy masyado si bato habang angduon.

        • pahinumdum lang ni, as polis chief kining si bato is contracted to do a job. he cant be enjoying life just yet, getting fat and fatter, sitting and twiddling his thumbs, and having to delegate jobs to others giving them less to no supervision at all.

          dapat, duty 1st before pleasure. when he retires and when on leave, he can enjoy life and forget about his job. but when he is on the job, the top job, we expect him to hit the floor running and giving all he has got, and get results 2nd to none.

          cheers, aberato.

  11. ‘PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte’s decision to form a commission to look into the botched January 2015 Mamasapano raid in which 44 police commandos were killed will only produce “alternative facts,” the camp of former President Benigno Aquino III said Wednesday.’

    Former Pres. Noynoy Aquino will be thrown into the wolves’ den.

    Suggestion: Better that a ‘fact-finding-commission’ to be created by Congress. Wolves should be out of this ‘FFC’ with clear parameters.

    . . . but there is already the Office of the Ombudsman created already by Congress. Duplication of investigations, isn’t it?

    . . . .phewww! Arriving at confusion soon.

    • Lehitimo ang paglunsad ng operasyon ng SAF44 sa Mamasapano. Kaya di dapat kwestyunin si PNoy o si Gen. Napenas sa bagay na ito.
      Ang dapat na kwestyunin ay ang libu-libung pumanaw na sundalo sa Mindanao noong panahon ng Martial law kasi hindi lehitimo ang pag overstay ni Marcos.
      Ang isa pang dapat kwestiyunin ang legitimacy ng ‘war on drugs’ at ‘operation tokhang’ at ang pagkakapaslang ng mga mamamayan na nasa mahigit ng 7,000 ang bilang.

      • I’m with you, highfive, totally. ejkillings should be more on the agenda, also the giving of immunity to false witnesses just so suspects can be pinned down. the kapolisan going on rampage in time of peace should be questioned to the hilt as well. itong si digong, he’s only trying to sidetrack issues. he cannot solve problems kasi without creating new ones.

        • big spender and govt ni digong: too many commissions being formed, much money will be spent as well. bato is also being tasked by lacson to form new commission, secret commission composed of kapolisan to do checks and balances – of their own people? ha, much good will that do, dracula being asked to manage a blood bank. bato is good kuno in creating secret commissions, gaya ng death squad sa dabaw na kagagawan yata niya, then there is also riding in tandems composed of kapolisan. and what have they all achieved? the creation of more commissions to look into commissions. commissions on top of commissions. soon, polis will not know who is who and so, will let the fun time continue on.

          no wonder agrabyado ang pamilya ng saf 44, they’ll be missing out on all the fun, all that kickbacks, all the money to be had now na patay na ang napagkakakitaan nila. well, those left behind by saf 44 would just have to step up and be in the polis force too, sooner than later. see if they can join in the fun soonest and harvest lots of money in a short space of time. be millionaires like sta isabel and co. lucrative talaga to be in the polis force. they got immunity if they labag peace and order, plus digong will always be on thier panig. there to protect him in case their is trouble like coup.

        • :). At saka mission accomplished ang operation ng SAF44 Mamasapano kasi nagtagumpay sila sa pagpigil sa isang bomb maker. Dapat na ituring silang heroes.

  12. Latest from USA. –

    “When they’re chopping off the heads of our people, and other people… when ISIS is doing things that nobody has ever heard of since medieval times, would I feel strongly about waterboarding? As far as I’m concerned, we have to fight fire with fire,” he said. from Pres. Trump.

    . . .“But do I feel it works? Absolutely, I feel it works.”

    Suggestion: Just get ’em terrorist(s) DEAD.

    To get terrorist(s) alive, civilized people are bound by the law – No torture whatever. Otherwise, one violates his/her own law – a lawbreaker too.

    http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/865538/trump-says-torture-works-but-will-follow-cia-pentagon-advice

    • I hope trump will not, repeat, will not take joma’s name off the terror list. joma is a wanted terrorist. if there is price on joma’s head, we could be seeing jomasapano.

  13. ‘b>Ombudsman asks prosecutor: What took you so long?: xxx has ordered the chief records officer of the Office of the Special Prosecutor to explain why it took seven months for the Mamasapano cases to reach the Sandiganbayan.

    Justice delayed is JUSTICE DECAYED.

    That case is about prosecutor at Ombudman’s Office. Many decayed cases at prosecutors’ offices.

    What about a decayed case at the trial court? One is the BackHoe case of Maguindanao?

    There are so many current rules on the time period of criminal and civil cases to expedite for investigation, prosecution and termination of trial. To No Avail. Ignored due to decay.

    Like when/IF an adult person’s teeth 32 – most adults have 32 teeth. Among these teeth are 8 incisors, 4 canines, 8 premolars, and 12 molars (including 4 wisdom teeth) are decaying or decayed.

    Those cases and teeth are justiis – not only delayed but decayed. A sorry state.

    • Despite those ‘rules’ referred to for the ‘cases’ what is the remedy by rule or law? So far, nothing [except in civil cases when unwarranted postponements are happened, a fine is supposed to be imposed but seldom posit.] It is pusit!

      Suggestion: FINE: Five (5) Months equivalent. Or SUSPENSION for 1 Year. VIP Cases should be DISMISSAL with FINE with Prohibition from further appointment to government service.

      And/Or: Automatic Disbarment from the practice of the profession also, whether a lawyer, prosecutor or a judge.

      Harsh? No, because a decayed case or tooth/teeth is beyond repair. Prejudice has already set in time ago.

      Patay na ang Kabayo para ano ang sakati?

    • ay, leona, no wonder she is called cagat-cagat, teeth-teeth 32 in all. dati records officer daw yan, ngayon ay prosecutor na. talagang nagkaruon ng leap of teeth! have plenty teeth will become prosecutor. how the hell did teeth-teeth get endorsed? did anybody look at her previous work records and see how well she has dispatched her duties?

      kung mabagal lang pala yan magprocess o magfile ng records, oh, I got it. part of the job baga yan, oplan tokhang records, he, he, he.

  14. Some frustrations:

    Pres. Trump will make the stance:

    1.) have to send China a clear signal that, first the island building stops, and second, your access to those islands is also not going to be allowed.

    2.) the United States will defend “international interests” in the South China Sea and that trade must be a “two-way street.

    3.) the campaign theme that existing rules favor Chinese exports to the United States and cost American jobs.

    Big troubles for China coming.

    Can Phil & China continue to nego for oil & other natural resources in WPH (So.C.Sea)?

    China exports costs American jobs. It has most favored nation-clause. American goods made in China for less costs. Can America lower American wages to make those goods?

    How many Americans will buy American-made goods in USA if costs are higher than when made in China?

    Will American-owned companies in China support Pres. Trump on this? China became a great next super-power because of this stance by USA before Pres. D.T. came in as President.

    Where and when will USA be really great again under Pres. Trump?

    • The present US PRESIDENT is already working non stop to turn around OBAMA’S LAWS.

      He is securing all bases of American allegiance in a good productive way to wards his leadership.He forged alliances with TRADE UNIONS not with government or any private unions to bring forth a conservative, pro, worker and not on globalist interest.And patriotic citizens love that for they are helping America go back to the Camelot era of rebuilding with grace and dignity. Remember he is a pro on making and breaking business /entrepreneurship. And that means jobs are coming back to America. Look , Japan is very small but because of patriotism and discipline they made their country one of the best export sources of electronics and other technology.
      He maybe a loud mouth president but he is a person made by his own goodness and flaws building his billions in business.
      And I have observed that in the US THEY HAVE BECOME MORE PATRIOTIC than ever, that they are willing to sacrifice their part, buying goods in Russia than in CHINA.
      That was smart being friends with Russia so they say. And that leaves us dumbfounded. See where all the F’U’s will lead this corrupt-drug-ransom forsaken country.

      • The ‘turn around non-stop’ will flood us with China goods once Pres. Trump puts a TAX on goods from China.

        My honest guess is when American companies are sold to China to continue making those goods since it cannot be done making it in USA, sell to China US companies might be the alternative.

        No more big USA market for China. In a way it is UP-ROOTING the present set-up. A big task ahead. Wait & See if if can be done.

        As to who will prevail – Pres. Trump or American-owned companies, that is the big question as a Trump theory is opposite to American-companies doing business abroad making profits but not when done in USA.

        The game is: BUSINESS with PROFITS.

        • yep, I say patriotic americans should buy products made in estados unidos, they should go for quality instead of quantity, all should support their own companies, keep the jobs back home instead of exporting them to china.

          american goods should be manufactured and produced in america not by subsidiaries based in other countries. services (like call centers) should not be outsourced to countries like pinas where operational costs are much cheaper.

          americans should pay their equal share of taxes instead of hiding their monies in tax havens. I hope when americans say they’re patriotic they didn’t mean to keep america white, coloreds are out. they’re patriotic in the sense that all american citizens regardless of race, color and stature will have equal rights, and not just in paper and in words, but also in deed and action.

          phew, I think, I’ll continue being pinoy, used to hard work and not ashamed of labor.

  15. Senate live hearing on. . . CORRUPTION:

    – at Pag-Corruption. Answers of witnesses full of iots.

    Corruption in this country is so wide and extensive everywhere in the gov’t and in the private sector. So, what’s new? Old & new corruptions!

    As usual, boring.

    • Senator Manny Pacquiao, meanwhile, wondered why Argosino and Robles had to split the money.

      “[It’s] for security reasons,” Argosino said.

      Pacquiao, however, noted the integrity of the evidence could have been compromised when the former BI officials brought the money with them.

      Even Sen. Pacman does not swallow Hook, Line & Sinker an Attorney’s incredible splitting statement!

      ha! ha! ha!

    • No LEONA, there is a fast improvement on the part of the police and military aside from increase salaries.

      They are faster than the speed of light when one is in trouble, you don’t have to call them anymore for they are already at the scene of the crime, ex: Korean RANSOM SLAY and investigation already inside the venue of CRAME. For security reasons, !!

      So, it was even faster than the CIA OPERATIVES, OH maybe, I read it from TULFO and MOCHA USON, fake news, the next Nobel piece price of journalism. What a (dis) honor!

      • Hanap buhay na ang mga ka pulisan ngayun. Kidnapping for ransom with EJK is the next Opn TOKHANG 2.

        Mag kaibigan na naman si Spk Alvarez at Chf Bato. Don’t resign Bato anymore. Resign Don’t Resign Resign Don’t Resign. = recycled iots pala!

        So what if there is dis-honor? Basta may pera. . . okay lang.

        Await for more heinous crimes to come by kapulisan ng Bayan.

        Keep the Tambyulo turning around! The MAJORITY of the citizenry are so quiet. For how long? When no one can Walk A Mile For It.

        :-(

        • bato kasi has the goods on digong and many others. maraming alam si bato and knows all about duterte’s death squad, he might as well be kept close , closer and closest. if bato changes his mind and become turncoat, he’s within arm’s length and easier to liquidate ala mikey arroyo who has ‘car accident’.

          even ping lacson is willing to give bato 2nd chance. mabait daw kasi si bato. well, the bato lacson knew years and years ago is not that bato anymore. bato has gotten through the ranks and now as pnp chief, iba na ang mission statement niya. instead, bato has become complacent that nothing fazed him anymore. polis killing civilians, okay lang kay bato yan. the polis he suspended from duty for being killer, but was later absolved and given immunity, okay din kay bato yan, no questions asked pa. utos daw kasi ni digong. so, if in the future, digong becomes crazier and tells bato to go and eat shit, bato will most likely do it, he, he, he.

          instead of being indulgent, lacson should judge bato now, not on what bato was 10yrs ago. mabait si bato nuon, masunurin. now as pnp chief, bato should stop being mundane at super masunorin, stop being sobrang complacent, pleasure muna bago trabaho, nasa concert instead of monitoring polis rank and file, solving polis problems and ensuring all is well bago maghapi-hapi.

          bato should be making hard decisions worthy of his rank, and not letting others make decisions for him. he’s a man with a backbone straight as a rod, and not a fat mouse prone to sitting and doing nothing.

      • ‘Pinas’ killing of Jee Ick Joo inside Camp Crame is now a BAD SHOT in South Korea.

        Mayor Espinosa killing while detained in jail was the first BAD SHOT.

        Two BAD SHOTS is THREE BAD SHOTS.

        Protecting these bad shots is very poor marksmanship in the gun range.

        It will stop when there are no more bullets. In short, PNP is now a bad cross-eyed shooter and/or killer.

        To be shorter, no more order for citizens. Peace is not even for foreigners here.

        Bad Shots.

        • all polis should have mascots, for target practice and for taking all the blame and the kapalpakan the polis had done. shot the mascot, not the polis. can’t tell the difference between the two? shot them both, he, he, he. burn them both, he, he, help!

          I’m not forgetting jack lam, he was allowed to go quickly overseas.

          habang si de lima, she has to pass through the eye of the needle before she can go overseas and accept her award.

          something is terribly wrong in the pinas.

        • Jack Lam is a gambling lord who stepped into many holes.

          He should be permanently declared unwelcome in ‘Pinas. But not yet.

          Freeze all his assets, if any, are here. For tax payment, etc.

          But he’ll be back daw if he pays taxes. Yep, a holer. Guys like him should stay out of here for good.

          But, pera kasi. Okey doke.

          :-(

        • tama, jack lam will be back, hasta la vista, baby. only, he will have another name and new identity to go with his new look. ugali ng mga intsik yan to re-invent themselves.

          to alyas jack lam money is no problem, pinas is gold mine if you know where to dig.

          unlike the chinese, the koreans have lot to learn. those in angeles city ay ginagawang mga bakang gagatasan ng kapolisan. balwarte ni gloria arroyo ang pampanga, ang mga kapolisan sa pampanga ay medyo lokito-lokito na ngayon. goring is digong’s bosom buddy. bilang rep ng pampanga, what is goring doing to make pampanga safer for koreanos?

          last I heard, goring is trying to have bureau of internal revenue have name change.
