Responding To Netizen's Comment

Netizens Comment: Typhoon Agaton showed the real difference between BBM and Leni - as leaders, as would-be presidents, and as a person. The difference? Yung Isa May Mga Totoong volunteers, aside from the obvious leadership. Kaya nakakausad pa rin. Pero young isa, trolls anag naka-under payroll.

Response: 

We always hear from leaders that in case of calamities and disaster ... if only they could get more done, but there doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day. Then they always say: If they only had the tools they needed, they'd be able to do more as expected. Guess what? Those are just excuses.

What we saw this week is that Leni can do more in disaster situations for less. Resourcefulness is the key and we thought all would-be presidents should have that ...that is learning to do more with less.

We all have the same amount of hours in a day. This means that self-made, scrappy Leni you admire has tapped into the power of resourcefulness to give Eastern Visayas the help that they need. The help was not enough of course but that is better than having no help at all. Last week Leni showed us leadership in motion.  She showed us leadership by doing something.  She made her presence felt by making a difference.

It’s time for us to stop making excuses and start making more with less – more money, more opportunities, and more fulfilling life.

Pia Wurtzbach Made A Stand

 

Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach shared on Wednesday, April 13 that she already cast her vote at the Philippine embassy in the UAE, where she registered as an absentee voter last year.

“Got my girl boss suit on cos I’m feeling empowered today!” she wrote on her social media accounts. “As a first-time voter, I must say that it felt so good to vote today. Emotional actually. May halong excitement & relief that I finally took my stand. Shading that little black dot felt like I was finally making a choice towards our future. I know I’m only 1 person. Only 1 vote out of millions but every vote counts.”

The beauty queen, actress, and entrepreneur added that she encourages all Filipinos abroad to vote which will be available for one month.

” I also learned that only about 30% of ALREADY REGISTERED voters here in UAE are expected to vote. Sayang naman kung ganon. If you’re a Filipino living abroad who’s already registered, please make time for it because your vote counts. You have one whole month to do this so there’s really no excuse not to. Plus, the process in Abu Dhabi was super seamless.”

In one of the rare times she spoke regarding politics, Pia revealed that she voted for Vice President Leni Robredo.

“Today, I am even prouder to have voted for Leni to be our next President. I’m sharing this with you dahil naniniwala ako sa kakayahan ng isang babae. Naniniwala ako at naninindigan ako para kay Leni.”

Pia has a long history with the lone female presidential candidate. Back in 2015 when Pia tried for the third time in Binibining Pilipinas, it was Leni who asked her famous question about social media wherein she answered the phrase “think before you click.”

A year ago, Pia, along with friends and fellow beauty queens Carla Lizardo and Bianca Guidotti-Santos had Leni as one of their guests on the show Between Us Queens.

Quotable Quotes

 

Mrs. Leni Robredo

The Kakampink Nation felt that the response from BBM's camp and addressing the Vice President as Mrs. Robredo was disrespectful and irreverent. 

In a response, Marcos Jr’s spokesman Atty. Vic Rodriguez accused Robredo of “deceiving” the public.

“Mrs. Robredo and her yellow crew can no longer deceive the Filipino people as we have all been awakened from their propaganda of lies, falsehood, and politics of deception,” Rodriguez said in a statement.

“In the spirit of Lent, I admonish you not to pass on to us your brand of fake, hateful, negative, and gutter politics,” he added.

Rodriguez also reminded about Marcos Jr’s goal is to achieve unity until the very end.

“Presidential frontrunner Bongbong Marcos has based his campaign solely on his call for unity anchored on the strengths and merits of his vision and platform for the future of our country, especially the youth that has resonated throughout the land and we shall keep it that way until the very end.

“Enough of your deceptions.”

After peddling the manufactured lewd videos of Leni's oldest daughter Aika the Pink Barangay fired back with more stinging verbal tirades and diatribes. Here is the sampling: 

-Ash Preto - Instead of denouncing sexualization of women and upholding women's rights, BBM's camp instead chooses to malign the Robredo campaign. Mas madali sa kanilang sisihin at i-gaslight ang Robredo campaign. 'Yung pambabastos sa mga babae, hindi man lang binanggit o ni-condemn.

-Dionne Monsanto Stalder- I bet there’s a special place in hell reserved for Vic Rodriguez.

-Sab -Hoy Vic, she is not “Mrs. Robredo” to you. She is THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE PHILIPPINES. Yes, the female lawyer who had beaten your candidate not just once but also after how many recounts.

-Rod Singh -Mrs. Aquino - kasi housewife lang daw. and because they don’t like to recognize her as President.

Ngayon, Mrs. Robredo? Bakit? She’s VP Leni Robredo. ATTY LENI ROBREDO. Meanwhile, BBM will always be Marcos Jr. Not Atty. Not VP. And never MR President. Also, LIES!

-Je - Ang pait-Lenlen naman nong "Mrs. Leni Robredo". The Mrs. Robredo you're talking about is a lawyer and a constitutionally-elected Vice President. Parang gusto nyong magpa-recount nang pang apat na beses "Atty" Vic Rodriguez?

-Francis Baraan IV - Mrs. Robredo would be the correct form of address for

@lenirobredo

if she were still First Lady of Naga & wife to the late, then Mayor Jesse. Refusing to acknowledge Leni as the duly-elected VP won't minimize her legitimacy. Leni was the Winner—Marcos the Sore Loser. FACT YOU.

-Herman Dionson - The language he is using does not represent the unity call they are asking.

-KAE - ABS-CBN, despite lacking a franchise, is busy covering the floods in Leyte. Meanwhile, your new favorite propaganda machine SMNI is busy covering Bobong Marcos.

-Chris Tan - sunod sunod na ito. i feel the tide swelling and the momentum growing faster and faster. 1 voter at a time.

-May2022- VIC RODRIGUEZ hanggang ngayon ba biktima ka pa rin ng fake news coming from your camp? VICE PRESIDENT Leni Robredo is running as Independent and PINK is her official color not DILAW. Her backers though are coming from different political parties and of different colors

-KAE- Pia Wurtzbach’s endorsement of VP Leni Robredo is not just Pia’s endorsement. Look at the comments and it revealed a number of good names supporting her too.

Responding to Citizen's Comments

 Netizen: How do I make myself a responsible voter?

Response: You will be a responsible voter if you do your assignment right and make your own research. Much like looking for your lifetime partner, you need to check the candidate's profiles and where they are leaning on societal issues - are they for or against the war on drugs, attacks on civil society, freedom of media, gender identity, red-tagging, abortion, death penalty, human rights violations, same-sex marriage, pre-marital sex, corruption, overpopulation, and poverty.

You also need to check for what people say about them both pros and cons and research their reviews and the current projects they are in. If they are congressmen and senators, look for headlines that show how they respond to critiques and opinions, what campaign promises they made and kept and what laws they have authored and passed.

And while we are at it, listen to their platform and how it will affect you.  Research is tedious, sluggish, and time-consuming but in the long run, it may be worth your while.
