Was She Being Patriotic?

Alejandro Ortega of Spain is Mr. Global 2025. Kirk Bondad of the Philippines is Mr. International 2025.

They are almost like two peas in a pod ... almost like a twin ... or brothers from a different father. They look every inch similar ... bearing a close resemblance.

Is this now the new prototype for winning pageants? A new paradigm? Are we back to the machismo-guapissimo standard in male pageantry?

Sa kaguapohan ni Kirk Bondad nagrereklamo pa ang isang Ariska Putri from Indonesia at coocking show daw and Mister International. Bakit kasi pinaghost pa si Ahtisa Manalo pati tuloy ang maliwanag na pagkapanalo ni Kirk ay nabigyan pa ng ibang kulay? 

Why was she complaining about Kirk ... and she "moved on" that quick with Alejandro, with nary a sign of protest or grievance when they almost look alike. Or it was just one of those pathological envy or jealousy, a lot of her countrymen feel every time the Philippines wins, and they did not.

And she still insists that Oliver Edward Prasetyo of Indonesia should be the winner ... eh kung hindi ka ba naman timang ... mananalo ba ang kandidato niya eh hindi nga nakaabot siya sa Top Ten? How pushy she can be?

Ironically, Kirk and Oliver are close friends, and here she is putting a wedge in their friendship? Why does she have to go to the extent of downplaying the significance of Kirk's victory ... discredit him by pointing out his flaws or accuse him of unfair circumstances, or refute it by arguing against the win's validity or cause?

Was she delusional? Or was she just one of those loyal, patriotic extremist who loves nothing but her own and are capable of ranting and displaying juvenile temper tantrums if the result did not match what she expected?

The sad thing about Ariska is that she lies and concocts fake news just so she can continue to discredit Kirk ... fabricate stories to make his win less important ... and disparage or belittle the value of his win. 

And while we are at it ... I just want to verify if Ariska Putri is the same person as Ariska Putri Pertiwi - Miss Grand International 2016 from Indonesia?

Just in case they are nothing but one person ... it is just a shame that for somebody whose advocacy is to stop war and bloodshed, here she is magnifying the exact opposite of her cause. Sowing intrigues and lies is just a no-no, especially if she doesn't want her name dragged into the quagmire of gossip and innuendos.

And there's more ... if they are just one person ... people will question her win with the way she butchered the English language, and her spelling makes one doubt how she managed to win the crown and the title herself. See how she besmirched her name dahil lang sa magkatukayo kayo?

Now the big question ... with Alejandro Ortega winning Mr. Global 2025 (and having the same facial qualities as Kirk), how come everything is quiet in Ariska's front? She doesn't even raise her arms for justice when Venezuela walked home very sad, knowing that his answer to the Q and A round is far better than Alejandro's.

How come she was not going to the ballistics when Indonesia's Mr. Global 2025 Arrie Octrain clapped his way going home?

See ... I hate being rude ... but these questions need to be asked. Why only Kirk and not Alejandro?

And thank heavens she was not a judge ... otherwise everybody would be writhing in pain knowing how biased and prejudiced she was

May MgaTanong Ang Isang DDS

 

DDS: Bakit noong panahon ni Tatay Digong ... wala man lang Tsekwang nambu-bully at nanghaharass sa West Philippines Sea?

Sagot: Meron din.  Hindi lang BINABALiTA ... kaya hindi masyadong HALATA.

                                              >>>>>>>

DDS: Bakit hindi binabalita? Hindi ba interesado ang ABS CBN ... GMA at TV5?

Sagot: MUFFLED ang mga balita... para siyang baril na kahit pumutuk man ... may SILENCER. Kung minsan naisip ng iba para bang may NEWS BLACK-OUT?

                                           >>>>>>>>

DDS: Walang KAKURAP-KURAP... "Aminin natin ... and let us celebrate na during PRRD's watch ... unlike today ... hindi uso noon ang mga korap?

Sagot: Sinong may sabi? KORAP wala ... pero CORRUPT? Meron. Marami sila? At namamayagpag ... pero malakas ang kanilang proteksyon. Nagmukha tuloy renaiassance or rebirth ang 2016-2022. Mistulang may Downy ang kapaligiran sa sobrang bango at kalinisan.

                                            >>>>>>>>

DDS: Kung marami din ang corrupt sa panahon ni PRRD... bakit hindi big deal sa gobyerno at bakit parang walang imik ang presidente?

Sagot: Walang magandang kahihinatnan ang mag-ingay kasi. Tingnan mo si BBM ... he didn't realize how massive and wide-spread the corruption problem. Inumpisahan niyang pumutak ... ngayon natataranta siya kung ano ang gagawin at hindi niya inaasahan na ganito ang naging resulta. Noong nagdaang rehimen...  sarado ang bibig ni PRRD. Ang mga ganyang gawain kasi ... toxic at tetano ... at hindi maganda sa imahen ng isang poon.

                                             >>>>>>>>

DDS: Peaceful pala ang buhay ng mga corrupt sa time ni Tatay Digong? Nagnanakaw ka na at lahat ... walang mainit na mata ang nakamasid sa iyo. 

Sagot: Protektado sila kaya peaceful. Dahil walang masyadong ingay ... akala natin payapa. Walang Blue Ribbon Committee investigations, walang ICI. May Risa Hontiveros at Sonny Trillanes man pero may mga tanging sundalo silang sumasangga kasama ang mga ka-kosa nila sa troll farm na bumabangga at tumutunaw sa kung anong mga isyu meron sila.

                                            >>>>>>>>

DDS: Ano ba ang special strategy noon ni Tatay Digong ang ginagamit nila at walang masyadong mga alingasngas at kontrobersya?

Sagot: Kung kaaway sa politika ang korap ... hindi nila tatantanan ang kaso hanggang ang tao'y maparasuhan. Kung kaalyado nila ang korap ... kung pwede na lang kalimutan ... mas maigi ... at mas nakakabuti. 

                                          >>>>>>>>>

DDS: Pwedeng kalimutan? Pwede ba iyon? Sigi nga ano bang mga kaso sa corruption sa nagdaan ang pilit at gustong  kinakalimutan at ilibing na lang na parang walang nagyari?

Sagot: Ikaw malimutin ka rin. Or nagbingi-bingihan lang. Hindi mo ba naalala ang impeachment ni Inday Sara about the missing condifidential funds? Ayaw nilang mabahiran ng dumi ang pangalan ng prinsesa ng Davao kaya ninais sana nilang hindi na ito pumutok at itago na lang ang lahat. Para sana pagdating ng 2028 ready as A-okay si Inday. Pwede na siya maging presidente. Kaya lang hindi maexplain ni Inday kung saan pumunta ang mga milyones  ... kaya kahit ano ang gawin niya ... nakatoon ang mga mata ng tao katulad ngayon sa flood prevention projects.

And haven't you notice the Herculian efforts ng mga alipores nila sa Senado . may gustong ipabasura ang impeachment ... may gustong ipadismiss ... may mga delaying tactics at buong tapang na nagsisinungaling para maantala ang pagumpisa ng proceedings ... nagrely sila sa technicalities - kesyo ganito  kesyo ganoon hanggang umabot na sa SC na hinatulang unconstitional ang lahat. 

Wala silang pakialam sa pagkawala ng confidential funds ... na galing din sa kaban ng bayan...  pero marami ang nakialam misalba lang si Inday para matuloy na ang kanyang presidential bid.

Looking at the image ... anybody can arrive at a myriad of interpretations ... one can put meaning to it ... and that depends mostly on one's personal experience ... family or otherwise.

To further evaluate my theory ... I asked friends to comment on WHAT THEY FEEL about the picture, and this is what they said.

1. The puppy is uninvited. He squeezes himself into the family out of nowhere, expecting the same rights and treatment.

2. The puppy is saling-pusa. Too pushy for comfort.

3. Strangers can come anytime in our lives, in the most unexpected times and places. And then competes for our parents' attention.

4. The puppy is an apple in a bowl of oranges. Too different to be considered a part of the family.

5. Have you ever thought that the puppy could be a potential black sheep in the family

6. Kung sino pa ang nakikitira lang ... siya pa ang maldita.

7. Ang puppy can be a home-wrecker. I can see him putting a wedge in every relationship.

8. Kung hindi dumating ang saling-aso na yan ... hindi magkaleche-leche ang buhay namin.

9. The piglets are welcoming. They will soon bond and blend together.

10. The mother pig accepts the puppy as an addition to their family

I can see some hugot lines sa mga responses. May nababasa akong munting mga drama sa buhay nila. Ang aso was just an instrument ... a mirror, and it shows a varied emotional reflection of feelings bordering on hate and disgust.

Imagine ... isang cute na puppy (and lovable at that) ... mirrors some deep dark secrets, resentments and negative feelings sa buhay ng mga kaibigan ko?

Parang "projective psychological drawing test" lang ito na isang requirement if you apply for work. You were required to draw on a piece of paper something about your house and your family. After that, the psychologist analyzes the drawing details to infer aspects of the applicant's personality.

The psychologist can also extract subconscious emotions from the subject. For instance, a large house might suggest satisfaction with home life, while a house drawn very small could indicate unhappiness with family.

Except for numbers 9 and 10 ... lumabas ang mga kinikimkim at nakatagong damdamin - probably REPRESSED or SUPPRESSED because the thought of them .... overwhelms the person.

Hindi man natin kagustohan na mageaves drop sa kanilang mga personal na buhay pero ... lumabas ang tunay na State Of Their Lives Realities - (parang SONA ni BBM ah). Hindi dahil pinapakita ng tao ang kanyang happy facade ... eh maligaya at contented na siya sa buhay.

They are the classic example of people who are laughing on the outside ... but crying on the inside.

Ang akala natin ay eveything is okay in the Western front ... yon pala maraming red flags at alarm signals pala na dapat tutukan at bantayan.

Usad-pagong, Wala pang balita kung may makukulong sa mga AKUSADO at ABUSADO sa mga flood projects scam. 

Sabi nga ni Bob Marley, "you can never get justice in a world where criminals make the rules.

Sa mga hindi nakaintiendi or naguguluhan lang: The phrase means that true justice cannot exist in a society where corrupt or law-breaking individuals hold positions of power and create rules that benefit themselves.

The people hope however that this series of investigations is a step in the right direction ... hindi para amoin lang at suyuin ang galit ng nagtatampong tao. 

To the government, they should make good on this promise, as it is a significant matter to everyone, and any failure will erode their trust in them completely. 

Everyone I spoke to shared almost the same sentiment as Marley.

All they need is to debunk Marley's observations and vow that this will not happen in their watch ... and make a resolve that this will be an exception ... rather than the rule.

Bakit Binabagyo at Nililindol ang Pinas?

Hindi ba ninyo napansin ang sunod-sunod na kalamidad ... halos magkasabay-sabay na ang apat na bagyo na nagta-tagteam at nag-riding in tandem pa sila. Pag-alis ng isa ... darating pa ang isa.  And there's more.

Halos malublub na tayo sa putik ng corruption ... nawasak na ang ating mga bahay at na-anod na ang atin kabuhayan ... sa mga delubyong buong kahayopan naghasik ng pinsala ... and it looked like there is no end in sight.

At sa kung anong dahilan ... hindi pa nakontento ang kalikasan. Kailangan pa niyang dagdagan ng mga reminders ang mga tao "na ang titigas kasi ng mga ulo ninyo. Hindi kayo makuha sa isang tingin lang ... gusto ninyo kunin ko kayo sa santong paspasan!"

Kita ninyo pagkatapos ng isang kalunos-lunos na mga imahen ng destruction when a powerful earthquake rocked Cebu to the tune of 6.9 on the Richter scale ... today, another powerful jolt shook Davao to its core, erasing the previous known reading in any known Philippine charts as it recorded a magnitude  7.4 in its seismograph oscillations.

After that, another temblor was noticed in Ilocos at 4.4, as if that was not enough of an alarm.

Call me naive and simple-minded ... pero hindi ba parang sawang-sawa na ang Makapangyarihang Tao sa langit sa lahat na pinapagawa ng mga tao. "Hindi kayo natototo sa bagyo lang at baha ... kailangan padalhan Ko rin kayo ng malakas na lindol for an added impact at para mabagok na ang ating mga matitigas na ulo toput some sense to it..

Kita mo naman, siguro nakatiim-bagang Siya na nagmamasid sa kalangitan at halos tumaas na ang kanyang kilay habang pinagmasdan ang pakontes sa Senado - pataasan ng ihi ng mga Senador -whoever has the highest  stream wins.

Ang mga nakusahan ay patuloy pa rin sa kanilang pag-deny and they continued to lie as if tuwang-tuwa ang mga tao.  At may mga unscrupulous na mga indibidwal na ginagamit pa ang pangalan ng nasa Itaas (that's sacriligious let alone using the name of God in vain) malusutan lang ang pressure sa kung anumang naguumpugang bato kung saan sila naipit.

Quote ng quote sila ng mga passages sa Bibliya thinking na kung ginagawa nila ito ... baka maibsan ang  masamang pagtingin sa kanila ng mga madlang people. But the more they lie ... the more abominable they become.

Nagresign na si Ping Lacson dahil baka mamaya mabigwasan pa ng dating police officer ang ulyaning at bengatibong mga katunggali sa Blue Ribbon Committee. Iwas pusoy na lang siya dahil sa totoo lang what will he get from sticking up with Tito Sen - kundi mataas na BP, peligis sa mukha at walang katapusang threat at hamon at planting of witnesses ng mga katunggaling desperate na and on the verge na of being outed and singled out.

Kung may mga gurang sa Senado may isa ring batang tahol ng tahol sa House of Representatives. He wants to be the speaker of the House, and he has declared an all-out war with the president and the former speaker.

Today, ang Secretary of DPWH was seen on TV ordering to stop any ongoing repairs sa kalsada in the entire nation. Nakaka-amaze na ngayon lang niya nalaman na may mga kalsada na mukhang maganda pa naman ... pero basta na lang binubungkal para gumawa ulit ng panibago para pagkakitaan. Aba nilulumot na sa panahon ang raket na ito.

Ang battlecry ng public ay hustisya at sana may makulong man lang ang mga mapang-abusong public servants (kuno). And it looked like bago may makulong .... it will takes months or years bago ito maisangkatuparan. O baka makalimutan na lang.

Will there be more typhoons, floods, and earthquakes on the horizon? 

If that is not enough warning to all of us ... tell!

Ma Epal Ba?

 

Naku ito na naman si Alan Peter Cayetano. Akalain mo ba naman na magsuggest siya ng isang snap election para mapalitan na ang mga toso at magnanakaw na mga namumuno sa gobyerno? Akala niya ay tuloy-tuloy na ang kanyang mga pagiging bwenas pagkatapos na makasaysayang REMAND at ARCHIVE?

Pwes three is a big number. Kaya pahiya siya nang pagsabihan siya ni Usec Claire Castro. "Kung gusto mong magpalit ng mga tao sa gobyerno ... umpisahan natin sa sarili mo?"

Sigi nga Alan patunayan mo. Hamon ng taong bayan!
