Something is wrong with tsikot. Why is it that when i open this thread i now hear this loud sucking sound? Not exactly sucking but more like slurping some semi-solid brown matter.

That is the sound of good news. :D

Tor, this is highly commendable.

This benefits us who are OFWs, unless you are not in the UK as your profile suggests, and not in some Internet cafe being paid for every post you made here.

Congratulations to Secretary Bello for a job well done, unless you ascribe this feat to our President because we may as well give him credit the inutility of LTOs Galvante and LTFRBs Delgra.

Hindi nakakatakot ngayon ito. Hindi katulad ng dating mga admin. May FOI na po sa executive department. Pwedeng bantayan ang mga gatos ng ejecutivo. Kung may duda magrequest lang po papeles gamit ang FOI.

Tor, yeah right!


Aquino admin was best so far, survey says
August 16, 2016 12:59am

THE AQUINO administration had a "very good" satisfaction rating in its last months and the best overall performance rating seen since 1986, according to a Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey.

Of the 1,200 respondents questioned between June 24 and 27, 66 percent were satisfied with the administration's performance, while 17 percent were dissatisfied, and 17 percent were undecided.

This resulted in a net score (satisfied minus dissatisfied) of +50 in June, up 15 points from the "good" +35 (60 percent satisfied, 26 percent dissatisfied) in April.

The Aquino administration ended on June 30.

SWS considers a rating of plus 70 and above as "excellent"; plus 50 to plus 69, "very good"; plus 30 to plus 49, "good"; plus 10 to plus 29, "moderate", plus 9 to minus 9, "neutral"; minus 10 to minus 29, "poor"; minus 30 to minus 49, "bad"; minus 50 to minus 69, "very bad"; minus 70 and below, "execrable."



'By a mile'

The survey, first published in BusinessWorld, had a margin of error of plus-or-minus 3 percentage points.

The administration of former President Benigno Aquino III was the best rated thus far, based on SWS data.



Mahar Mangahas, SWS president, said that "going by the full record of SWS surveys since 1986, Aquinos's administration rendered the most satisfaction to the Filipino people, by the proverbial mile."

Mangahas said the Aquino administration had six-year average overall performance of "good" at +47.

This compares to the "neutral" -2 average in the nine years (35 surveys) of President now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo; "moderate" +15 average in the two and a half years (10 surveys) of President now Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada; "moderate" +14 average in the six years (24 surveys) of President Fidel V. Ramos.

SWS started its administration satisfaction surveys midway in the term of the late President Corazon Aquino in 1989, and in the five SWS surveys of administration performance in 1989 to 1992, the average net rating was +5, Mangahas added.

Mindanao most improved

The government's net satisfaction scores rose in all geographical areas and socioeconomic classes.

By area, net satisfaction with the government improved the most in Mindanao, from +33 in April to +60 in June. B Ana Roa, Inquirer Research

Big Fish...RESULTA

Tor, you are wrong again. According to the President, the BIG FISH is not in our country, what we have here are only small fries. Yes, we have medium-sized fries here but you let them sleep at Bato's White House, and that guy Peter "Jaguar" Lim where is he now? Other than a drug lord, is he not also a rice smuggler and gambling lord?

[commentator101]

Ito ang lider yung hindi tinotolerate ang mali. Malamang kapag hindi pa umayos itong LTO at LTFRB, sibak sa pwesto. Tanda ko si Abaya at yung NAIA manager pinagtanggol pa. Yung Alcala di pa sinibak kahit binaboy ang agrikultura. Incidentally, kapatid pala nitong si Alcala known na drug pusher dati pa pero tinulugan lang.

Unsatisfied Duterte to be 'harsher' vs corruption
Unsatisfied Duterte to be 'harsher' vs corruption
The President names the LTFRB and LTO as government agencies that remain corruption-ridden despite his administration's efforts

MANILA, Philippines – Still not enough.

That is how President Rodrigo Duterte assesses his administration's fight against corruption, so far. To make up for the insufficient efforts, he plans to be harsher on government agencies, he said on Monday, August 15.

"I will be very, maybe, harsh – double the word – in the coming days because it seems that my appeal that this should be a clean government is not registering at all in the gray matter between the ears of some people in government," he said during a speech at the oath-taking ceremony of government appointees in Malacañang Palace.

Duterte specified two government agencies as still being corruption-ridden: the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) and Land Transportation Office (LTO).

"LTFRB and LTO, they are still at it and to think I placed there General Galvante and Delgra...I was meeting the businessmen of CDO, was it 5 nights ago, and the complaint was still there," said the President.

The difficult thing about running to the SC is that first, there is no law which prohibits the burial of FM at the LNB. Second, while there are generally accepted facts about FM's brutal rule and role in the Martial Law period, the SC is NOT A TRIER OF FACTS.

While I am against FM's burial at LNB for being immoral and an outright outrage because of his regime's atrocities, protesters cannot simply pass the burden to the SC to prevent Marcos' burial at LNB because there is simply nothing they can legally invoke as basis.

What Digong lacks, is sensitivity to the plight of Martial Law victims when he insists on burying Marcos at LNB. I hope the dissent and dissatisfaction grows so that he'll feel it come the mid-term elections.

P3.35-T nat’l budget sought

Special purpose funds

Diokno said P1.3 trillion in special purpose funds could be found in the proposed GAA, of which more than P800 billion would be under the control of the President and the balance in the form of the internal revenue allotment for local government units.

The lump sum funds under the President’s control included salary adjustments for all workers and the use of “contingent funds.”

Php 800B! Happy days are here again!!!

Kaming mga taga Mindanao vs kayong mga taga Imperial Manila, Shabulized Iloilo, at mga Cebuanong walang modo. Ang saya ng Administration na to.

Seriously kaya nag apologize si PGong kay CJ dahil alam nya na di uubra ang Martial Law threat and warrant less arrest nya. It's not about unity.

[ClaNker]

Nakakatawa yung diehard-Duterte sa office namin na nung una panay ang putak na makukulong na si Pnoy dahil sa PDAF/DAP. Pero ngayon tumahimik na ng lumabas na ibabalik ang pork barrel.

Ang daming pumalag nung unang lumabas ang balitang may Php 80M ang mga congressman at ang mas masaya eh may Php 800B pa palang under the control of the Office of the President!

Question is... Can we afford this Php 3.35B budget?

I am starting to seriously hate this administration. They sre threatening to remove the tax incentives and impose VAT to PEZA registered companies. Worse, we are now required to report monthly all revenues and how tax holidays, duties & taxes and VAT exemptions are being utilized. This is a nightmare for accountants who have religiously reported all income and taxes to the government, remit all employee contributions on time and ensure taxes are paid full.

Not to mention the employment opportunities the BPO sectors have provided to the country. Soon the investors would decide to pull out their capital and I would like to see the expression on the faces of the dutertards when I hand in their last pay.

Something that has been irritating me during my daily commute was I noticed some motorcycle-escorted convoys are now sporting several brand new back-up vehicles. Some weeks back it was a new LC 200 with 3 brand new Innovas as back-up. Last night yung nakasabay ko naman was a convoy that had 3 brand spanking new black Ford Everests as back-up. I just hope public were not used to fund purchase the new vehicles of these powers-that-be; I remember P-Diggy was telling everyone that his order of the day was for officials to use austere vehicles.

Depends on the fiscal policy. We already received some insights from credit rating agencies to keep watch as changes might affect our credit ratings. Tax cuts of course are welcome to us wage earners but to make-up on the shortfall and how to increase collections to meet the budget is still an important matter to be addressed.
