To hoard sibuyas, local farmers need warehouses and cold storage. Maybe DA can raid these warehouses. Local agriculture organizations must be lying when they said harvest season starts mid-January.

To hoard imported sibuyas, in order to wait for local supply to run out, traders can easily store the reefer containers in the port for months, especially with cheap imported costs.

how does confiscating imports solve the problem

kung importer ka and your products keep getting confiscated by the gov't di ka na mag iimport

lalo kukulangin ang supply

if you suspect importers are hoarding, raiding them isn't the solution

mag import ang gobyerno ng malaking volume and flood the market

babagsak ang presyo and hoarders will be hurt

that's how you punish hoarders

The sister named some of the biggest smugglers couple of months ago.

And the same smugglers also have DA permits to import.

And DA is headed by the kid bro.

Syempre hinay hinay muna sila sa pag import.

That's part of politics, statesmanship and foreign relations since time immemorial. Ginagawa din nga ng China eh.

Apart from sugar and onions, Filipinos are facing supply shortage as well as rising prices of eggs, which used to be one of the cheapest sources of protein.

Data monitoring of the Department of Agriculture (DA) showed medium eggs retailed at P7 to P9 per piece as of yesterday. A year earlier, it cost P6 a piece.

The egg industry has been reeling from the impact of the avian influenza or bird flu and the high cost of production.

Increasing egg supply could take at least one year after the effects of the bird flu, Philippine Egg Board Association chairman Gregorio San Diego said during a briefing of the Philippine Chamber of Agriculture and Food Inc. (PCAFI) recently.

“Increasing the number of chicken will take about a year,” he said.

In explaining the timeframe, San Diego said hens are produced from imported parent stocks.

“When we import parent stocks, we have to wait for about six months before they lay eggs, where we will get the hens. Then it will take another six months for them to lay eggs. More or less, the cycle is one year,” San Diego said.

Singapore isn't choosing sides

Very disruptive if Singapore were to side US or China: Shanmugam

SINGAPORE — Singapore would experience a destabilising impact if it were to take sides in the ongoing US-China tensions, Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam said.

In a recent interview with the Sydney Morning Herald (SMH), which was published on Monday (19 September), Shanmugam said, “So obviously, we want the tensions to cool down and if we take sides, that is highly disruptive, either for our security or our economy or many other aspects.”

Shanmugam was also asked if there is a point of time when Singapore would have to choose sides between the two superpowers.

He reiterated it would not be in Singapore’s interests to do so. “But I think for us and many other countries in Southeast Asia, we wouldn't want to choose. But you're right, maybe at some point, we will be forced to make a choice, but Singapore's position is we will not make a choice,” he added.

what does the ukraine want from PH?

we don't have tanks to send them

why is it important to them what our position is??

what they want is for PH to be on the same page as the West

they want PH to subscribe to the Western narrative that Russia's invasion of Ukraine was unprovoked

but the global south doesn't see it that way

Eh choice nga nila diba, so choice din ng isang bansa if gusto nila gumamit ng diplomatic channel. Bahala na magdecide ang isang state.

Making it appear na hindi pwede does not hold water since it is part of statehood. Decision din ng isang state if they don't want to exercise it, but the fact remains they have the right to do it.
