'...Sa bandang huli, "may araw din kayo" buti na rin lang at ginawa n'yo 'yung
magpasasa sa P1 million dinner habang lupaypay ang bayan sa kagutuman—di lang sa
kawalan ng pagkain kundi sa iba pang bagay—at pagdadalamhati sa yumaong Ina ng
Bayan. Binigyan n'yo ng mukha ang katakawan. Katakawang walang kabusugan.
Mukhang di nakita ng masa sa usaping NBN, mukhang di nakikita ng masa sa usaping
SAL. Mukhang nakita lang ng masa dito sa ginawa n'yong ito. Sa pagpapabondat sa
New York habang naghihinagpis ang bayan.
Isinusuka na kayo ng taumbayan, mahirap man sumuka ang gutom...'
...
Sana nandoon kayo para alam niyo ang totoo nangyari, Century Tuna canning and other canneries from the Philippines contributed, WWF was also there nag contribute din for the dinner. In Washington, the Filipino Community paid for thier dinner, may bayad bawat plate, I did not attend kasi nga may bayad at marami kami ginagawa. Sino ang nagpakalat ng balita, isipin niyo na lang.
Bakit si GMA lang ang nakikita ng tao kasi siya ang nasa puwesto Ganyan ang ugali ng ibang Pilipino mahirap man aminin pero iyan ang totoo. Bakit si Binay ayaw din bumaba sa Makati, Palit palit din sila ng puwesto sa Makati pero hindi nakikita ng taga Makati kasi nakatingin sila sa iba. Sino bang Presidente ang nagustuhan ng mamayan sa umpisa lang gusto pag hindi napagbiyan ang gusto galit na sa Presidente.
Ang reporter na Fiipino humihingi ng sobre bawat i-cover nila, pagwala sobre pangit ang balita sa iyo kahit wala ka ginaw masama, pag may sobre ka binigay maganda ang balita sa iyo kahit may ginawa ka masama. Saan ka ngayon maniniwala. Dapat timbangin lahat ng binabasa sa periodiko.

Agree ako dyan kuya noel, kailangan may maibabalita ang news men ntin at kung may intriga mas gusto ng YONIP, negosya ang newspapers they are more after profit. sa mga tumatanggap ng envelop ang tawag duon envelopmental journalism.
Sana sa COG concentrate muna tayo sa local affairs dito meron tayong maitutulong.
Mabuhay ka Kuya Noel B.

But the tragedy with the Arroyo government is that it is leaving office under a
storm of controversy, like the political turbulence that heralded her second
term. Many of these controversies were caused by LAPSES in judgment. In many an
assessment of the legacy of the Arroyo presidency, the concrete achievements in
the economy and infrastructure development are diminished by the glaring
downsides in the areas of governance, human rights violations, and abuse of
power.
the President has walked the stage of history like a heroine in a Greek
tragedy...

Well said Noel!

Matapang tayo noon, duwag tayo ngayon...
Ang nakikita na lang nating katapangan ngayon, at talaga namang laganap na, ay
katapangan ng APOG. Ang katapangangang yon ay wala ring pinipiling kampon,
babae, lalaki o bakla. Equal opportunity, ika nga. Tapang ng apog ang kumikitil
sa bayan, tapang ng apog ang pumapatay sa bayan. Tingnan mo ang mga nasa poder
ngayon at tanong mo sa sarili kung may makikita ka ring katapat nila sa ganyang
katapangan.
Pero yo'ng totoong katapangan, nasaan na?...

"...Bakit alangan? Malamang di ka nagbabasa ng balita, o di lang talaga
nagbabasa, kung hindi ay nalaman mo 'yung ginawa ni Barack Obama at Joe Biden
nitong nakaraang Mayo. Galing silang White House patungong Virginia nang
magtakam sila pareho ng hamburger. Pina detour nila ang motorcade at tumuloy sa
unang hamburgerang nakita nila. Ito ang Ray's Hell Burger, isang maliit at
independienteng hamburger joint.
Tumungo ang dalawa sa counter at sila mismo ang nag-order, hindi mga aides.
Nagbayad sila ng cash na galing sa sariling bulsa at kagaya ng ibang customers
ay pumila para sa turno nila.
Ito ay presidente at bise presidente ng pinakamakapangyarihang bansa sa buong
mundo. Kung sa bagay, 'yung amo n'yo ay hindi naman talaga presidente. Di lang
makita ang pagkakaiba ni Garci kay God kaya nasabing "God put me here." Pekeng
presidente, pekeng asal presidente.
Tama si Obama at Biden: Sa panahon ng recession, kung saan nakalugmok ang mga
Amerikano sa hirap, dapat makiramay ang mga pinuno sa taumbayan, di
nagpapakapariwara. Sa panahon ng kagutuman, na matagal nang kalagayan ng Pinoy,
at lalo pang tumindi sa paghagupit ng Typhoon Gloria....."

pwede ba tigilan na tin itong mga bangayan, yung ginawa ni Barak, luma yan dito sa atin, maraming politician ang nakikikain sa squatters, kamayan style to get votes,
I suggest we concentrate on local issues on Culion, duon kaya nting pumapel na hindi lang salita, we can contribute financially and it can make difference sa lugar natin. Just like duon sa coop na binubuo where some would be members ay walang kakayahang magbigay ng fee, duon tayo pumapel, hindi yung tatanungin pa natin kung pwde
tayo mag member. hayyan na natin yun para sa kanila.
our Library project nahinto na, pero marami pang kailangan,
duon pwde pa din tayo magdonate kasi maliit lang na shelf ang nagawa, dagdagan natin ang gawa sa locality ntin. hindi panay puna pero wala namang tangible contribution.

papel ng pakitang-tao at bangayan...
o baka naman puro pakitang papel lang yan
everything we do have to be real as said
obama's action was very different from our politicians
kasi siya may paki...
we're just balancing things
what ever we do is a matter of truth...
or we're just empty clanging cymbals
cause what we're all doing will all be empty
when our deeds are the opposites of our life
as what happening to many... to our politics.
the challenge is there we don't need to boast it out
we're just awakening our true services
not just to 'papel' or 'pakitang-tao' as mentioned
doing in squatters... yan ang tinatawag na katapangan ng apog.
ganon na lang ang tingin natin sa mga sarili natin
what a shame!
the fact that they can't afford the dinner is already a sign of insensitivity to
the millions of squatters around cog.. lol
..Ninoy states the obvious: "I could have opted to seek political asylum in
America, but I feel it is my duty, AS IT IS THE DUTY OF EVERY FILIPINO, to
suffer with his people especially in time of crisis." looking forward for the
anniversary.. power to the people!! AND A PITY TO THOSE na walang- paki!

Bishop slams Philippines President's $20k NY dinner
August 10- from Catholic News Headlines( Paulist Press)
Philippines Bishop Deogracias Iñiguez Jr. has called for an investigation into an “outrageous” $20,000 dinner for President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and her entourage at a posh New York restaurant.
“It is outrageous if it would come out that they used public funds,” Caloocan Bishop Iñiguez Jr., said, according to a CBCP Online report.
He added that the dinner showed “a brazen disregard of what we are experiencing right now during this crisis.”
“If it’s their money, it’s really up to them how to spend it. But then again, it’s totally needless to spend such a huge amount for just a dinner,” he said in an article posted on the CBCP Web site.
The US tabloid The New York Post reported that Mrs Arroyo and her “large entourage” were seen “enjoying the good life” at the Le Cirque restaurant.
Press Secretary Cerge Remonde confirmed that Mrs. Arroyo and her entourage had dinner at the Le Cirque but added that no public funds were used for it, GMA News adds. He said administration Rep. Ferdinand Martin Romualdez foot the bill - a claim affirmed by Romualdez in a short statement.
“I am confirming the statement of (Press Secretary Cerge) Remonde regarding the dinner,” Romualdez, through his spokesperson Jun Pisco, said. He did not elaborate on how much the dinner cost and when it occurred.
Iñiguez said it is only right that a proper investigation would be made on the matter since $20,000 (more or less P960,000) could feed hundreds of poor and starving Filipinos across the country.
He did not say which body should spearhead the investigation.

August 11, 2009 -- from New York Post Magazine
OUR little scoop about the $20,000 dinner Philippines President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo enjoyed last month at Le Cirque has blown up into a political firestorm in her homeland, where memories of Imelda Marcos' shoe collection are still fresh. Makati City Mayor Jejomar Binay pointed out that the cost of the dinner for 25 could have fed "almost 3,000 hungry families with three square meals." A copy of Arroyo's tab, posted on several blogs, showed 11 bottles of Krug champagne were ordered at $510 a pop. The entourage -- who were charged $238 a head for the feast -- also devoured Osetra caviar at $1,400 for five ounces. An Arroyo spokesman said Leyte Province Rep. Martin Romualdez, part of the delegation, footed the bill. But Philstar.com quoted Binay, "What they did was deplorable, especially if taxpayers' money was spent. If they spent private money, what they did was in bad taste and again showed insensitivity to the millions of Filipinos who face hunger daily."
