Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Jesse
Robredo now says Jordanian TV journalist Baker Atyani and his two Filipino
crewmen are now being held hostage by Abu Sayyaf bandits.
But PNP Directorate for Integrated Police Operations head Chief
Superintendent Manuel Barcena says there’s no proof to what Robredo is
claiming.
These two officials are on the same team, with one higher in rank
than the other. But what do we get --
two TOTALLY CONTRADICTORY UPDATES on the same crisis situation.
But it seems Robredo and Barcena are not coordinating with each
other, which is VERY BASIC between a boss and his subordinates.
All these just a day after Jordan ’s Foreign Ministry declared
that Atyani’s and his companions were abducted in Sulu province while on a
reporting assignment
Question: Who’s LYING or who’s INCOMPETENT, or both, Robredo or
Barcena?
As DILG boss, Robredo has supervisory power over the PNP. But take note of the following, boys and
girls:
There’s NO CONFIRMED STORY yet on how Atyani and his two
companions went missing. Robredo and other local and police officials
consistently say the three were not taken by force or abducted.
But they have NOT YET PRESENTED ANY WITNESS who can prove that
Atyani’s group indeed arrived on their own and unmolested at the supposed Abu
Sayyaf camp they’re into now.
It has not been even proven beyond doubt by anyone that the
supposed ‘general location’ of Atyani’s group, which military officials claim
they already know, is their original destination in the first place.
All we have been hearing are the words of Robredo and police and
military commanders with him.
Anybody correct me if I’m wrong.
But you know what’s both DESPICABE AND INTRIGUING with Robredo’s
handling of the crisis, people?
His statement that no search-and-rescue operation would be
launched by the police even if he
himself says Atyani’s groiup are now being held hostage by Abu Sayyaf
bandits, and that the government “will wait and see.”
ANONG KLASENG UTAK KAYA MERON SI ROBREDO?
When one is held hostage, that’s ILLEGAL DETENTION, A CRIMINAL
ACT. Any criminal act, as in any, must
be STOPPED AT ONCE, as in immediately, by police or other authorities with
whatever means possible.
But Robredo would WAIT FIRST for WHATEVER it is and just let the
criminal act, which HE HIMSELF REVEALED, to continue.
So if, God forbid, Atyani and or his companions are HARMED OR
KILLED by the people holding them hostage, NOBODY else should be blamed but
Robredo.

"Ayon daw sa batas natin, ang $77
bilyon ay hindi puwedeng ipampagawa ng mga daan, blah blah blah.." See,
this is the problem with our elected officials in the Legislative branch. How
come they are not doing anything on it... that is, if the claimi is true and
not just using a law as an excuse. Kudos for another informative
article, sir!

FROM READERS WHO
ASKED NOT TO BE NAMED::
Maraming salamat sa
ulat na ito. Ano ang paraan para malaman ng taongbayan ang pinansyal na
katayuan ng ating gobyerno? Paano kinikita ito? Paano ginagastos? Ano ang batas
na patungkol sa pag-gastos nito? Pag may hindi kanais-nais na pangyayari o
pagdududa, ano ang maaaring gawin ng sambayanan upang maayos ito? Ilan na
bang matataas na pinuno ang nakulong dahil sa corruption? Marami kaming alam na
maliliit na tao na na-oombudsman, pero walang malalaking tao. Bakit?
I think it is just a
wise practical decision. The $1B is part of the $77B monetary reserve managed
by BSP (It's some kind of a requirement and it is the basis of the Peso
valuation and the exchange rate). This fund cannot be used by govt for internal
budget expenditures. Either it is just sleeping/ 'reserved' with the IMF or
since we're already paid up with our loans w/ IMF, we can loan it to other
countries and earn from it. Ito ay separate fund from the budget dahil pag
binawasan mo ang dollar reseves ng bansa, bababa lalo ang value ng piso,
therefore mas mahihirapan tayo magbayad ng utang. Sana lang magresearch muna tayo ng maayos about
intl funds bago magreact. I'm not pro-Noynoy, but cut the guy some slack and
give credit when it is due.
(My reply: I didn’t say that the $77B reserve fund should be
used outright for classrooms and other infra projects. All I said was there’s
no effort on the part of Pnoy, or anyone
for that matter, to try to amend the law so that even part of the $77 billion
could be used for infra and other needs of the people. If people from other
countries can avail of it through the IMF, the more should we be given a chance
for the same. I suggest you read my blog again.)
THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN DOLPHY AND CORONA

Hindi rin ibibigay
kay Dolphy yan, kasi si Villar ang kinampanya niya. Alam ni’yo naman ang Penoy,
mapaghiganti!

No other award,
including what Malacanang is withholding, can compare to the love that the
Filipino people showed to Mang Dolphy.

Ano ba ang aasahan sa ABNOY na presidente? Puro HANGIN ang laman ng

HANGIN-KAYABANGAN ang kinahahantungan.

It would have been easier to accept the verdict of CJ Corona
had the impeachment gone through proper procedure. But since the beginning of
the impeachment, rules were never followed. The CJ was denied due process.

Ang bilis ng kilos ng mga pulitiko pag si Dolphy, kasi sipsip sa masa.
Do they truly care? A dying comedian does not deserve this much attention from
the politicians, only in the Philippines .

Tama. Nung kay Corona , wala pang 3 hours
nakapirma na ang 188 congressmen. Sana ,
ganito din gawin kay Pidol.
ART CATAPANG
Why
are we devoting space and time considering Dophly as a national artist? Does
the Philippines
want to be the laughing stock of the world? There is not a country in iits
right mind who has recognized a slap stick comedian as their national artist or
part of their culture. Let us just let him be as the comedian that he is. To
enshrine him as a national artist is a laugh.30
