Bagay

[anonemus]

and the more you call them idiots, the more they'll support du30

they're not stupid that they couldn't see du30s flaws

they just overlook them

they'd rather see elitists get annoyed and irritated

the crazier and more outrageous du30's words, they more fun they have seeing elitists hyperventilate

They are idiots and stupid. They think they're giving the big finger, but in reality...

noong panahon ng mga Aquino untouchable ang mga konyo

konyo pabor sa kapwa konyo

akala ng mga konyo forever sila hari ng Pinas

#walangforever

panahon na ito ng promdi

sorry nalang sa mga ma-pride na konyo na ayaw sumipsip sa promdi

[Ry_Tower]

Gaya nga nang sabi ni shadow, hindi lahat kelangan sumipsip para mabuhay.

Mabuti na ang taong hindi sisiga-siga, pero may paninindigan at prinsipyo.

[leonleon]

parang yung isang sekta na kilalang-kilala dito kung saan ang malakas na agos ay doon sila magpatianod!!!

I'm reminded of this certain taipan. Back in 1998, he was all out for Mayor Lim. Kay Mayor Lim talaga siya bilib. Naniniwala siya sa kakayahan at plataporma ni Lim.

As election date drew nearer and it became clear Erap was still number 1 by a wide margin in the surveys, aba, biglang sinabi na kay Erap na siya boboto kasi wala na naman chance manalo si Mayor Lim, at sayang lang kung boboto siya sa talunan.

Laglag ako sa upuan ko.

This is not your skwater from Tondo talking. This is a guy who lives in Forbes, was educated in the best Phil. schools, and well respected in the business community telling us why he was switching to Erap few days before election day.

But that's reality of life. Sayaw lang sa tugtugin. Ganun eh.

How sure are we that we aren't replacing one set of konyos with another? Doesn't matter who does the scr*wing, we're still getting scr*wed.

Ibang set nga ba?

These days sir people seem to prefer anything *but* Dilawan...they've bought in to the notion so deeply they fail to notice they're being duped by the same old konyo gang wearing a pro-promdi mask.

du30 voters are the rising middle class

they're OFWs and grownup kids of OFWs

they're BPO workers

they're not rich and definitely not elitists

their economic wellbeing is precarious

they're economically insecure

an illness or tragedy can easily set them back bigtime

they don't have safety nets like rich people

they're afraid for their security -- they see rampant crime and govt inaction (du30 was able to tap into this concern)

they see the elites get vip treatment from the govt but get crappy treatment from the same govt (du30 was also able to tap into this concern)

they're the ones elitists look down on

"OFW lang yan"

"new rich"

"di naman old rich"

"saan daw nag aral? neverheard"

"idiots"

They resent elitists

and at a time when there's rising resentment towards elitists, LP fielded rich kid Roxas

geniuses

Latest West Phil. Sea developments:

Si Digong binawalan ng China na magpunta sa Pagasa island at ngayon tinataboy ang mga mangigisdang Pinoy at pati ang Phil. Air Force with Sec. Lorenzana and the Chief of Staff winarningan sa paglipad sa West Phil Sea, saan na tayo ngayon susuling?

Ang tapang tapang ng pagmumura ni Digong sa EU, UN, US, etc., pero pagadating sa China na umaangkin at nagpapalayas sa atin sa West Phil. Sea , sweet na sweet siya. Ano kaya pinakain sa kanya ng China? Tuwang tuwa ang China sa manipulation niya ng political situation sa ating bansa to their favor using this clown to divide the Philippine interest!

I'm really starting to believe most of his campaign funds were given by China and the rest by BBM. I mean for months he kept denying he would run and most rumors either pointed to health issues (lately he admitted to using powerful painkillers and frequent absences from the limelight) and a lack of money (Trillanes later alleged a BPI account worth billions).

what i see there is the result of Noynoy Aquino's asymmetric application of Daang Matuwid

He jailed Arroyo, Enrile, Jinggoy, etc but corrupt LP people were untouched

The Arroyo/Mendoza gospel and Carpio’s book | Inquirer Opinion

The Arroyo/Mendoza gospel and Carpio’s book
By: Solita Collas-Monsod - *inquirerdotnetPhilippine Daily Inquirer / 12:28 AM April 22, 2017

One is not sure why lawyer (for Marcos and cronies), former solicitor general and former Pampanga governor Estelito Mendoza has jumped into the conversation on the Philippines’ maritime issues with China, especially since he was quoted as saying that there are currently “too many conversations” on the issues. But he has jumped in with a big splash, launching a “primer” (his description) titled “The Ocean Space or the Maritime Area of the Philippines” in a press conference held at the House of Representatives.

How did he manage that location given that he is not a member of the House? Well, because his costar was none other than former president and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Arroyo, who was in turn supported by her erstwhile executive secretary, Eduardo Ermita.

That press conference, from the quotes in the media reports, essentially blamed Arroyo’s successor, P-Noy Aquino, for China’s buildup of infrastructures (island-building) in these here parts. How? According to Mendoza, China itself said so. It categorically stated that the Philippines’ case against China in the Permanent Court of Arbitration (in The Hague) had provoked its island-building. Mendoza said there was “relative quiet and peace” during the Arroyo administration. In apparent support of Mendoza, Arroyo chimed in three times that China’s artificial islands were all built during P-Noy’s term.

Get the logic? If the Philippines hadn’t brought up the case in the first place, China would not have done what it did (spending all that money to build all those structures, reclaiming the land, and destroying the environment). Thus, it was all P-Noy’s fault. We shouldn’t have challenged China at all.

Gott im Himmel. The gospel according to Arroyo/Mendoza. China’s actions have all been in reaction to the Philippines’ actions. It had no global strategy at all. So if we had just kept quiet, there would be peace now, and President Duterte would not be facing this “most difficult problem.”

This scenario is not only logically flawed (e.g. post hoc: The buildup started after P-Noy, so he must have caused it), there are factual errors, too. The Trump-Duterte syndrome is spreading very fast.

Thank heaven we have Justice Antonio T. Carpio’s new e-book, “The South China Sea Dispute: Philippine Sovereign Rights and Jurisdiction in the West Philippine Sea.” It is going to be launched soon, and it can be freely downloaded. And it tells you everything about the matter, in a very simple, understandable manner, so there is no excuse for not reading it, and getting the facts straight. The best of research.

Let’s see what Carpio’s book can tell us about the Arroyo/Mendoza gospel:

Well, it turns out that China first brought to the world’s attention its nine-dash line (which it adopted in 1948) in 2009—in protest against Malaysia and Vietnam’s extended continental shelf (ECS) claims. Notice: 2009 was during Arroyo’s watch.

What are the ramifications of China’s nine-dash line? Asean countries would lose anywhere from 30 percent to 80 percent of their exclusive economic zones (EEZs). The Philippines, in particular, would lose 80 percent of its EEZ comprising about 381,000 square kilometers of maritime space including the entire Reed Bank and part of the Malampaya gas field, and 100 percent of its ECS.

Malaysia and Vietnam lost no time in protesting this. Arroyo didn’t do anything about it while she was president. The note verbale was sent only during P-Noy’s time (2011). No wonder there was relative peace and quiet with Arroyo.

The problem, Reader, is that “silence or inaction can be interpreted as a state’s acceptance of a factual or legal situation.”

By the way, it was in the Philippines’ case against China that the Permanent Court of Arbitration ruled that China’s nine-dash line was baloney (although not in such graphic terms). Asean, I think, has yet to thank us.

Carpio’s book also discusses China’s objective: economic and military control of the South China Sea, not a fit of pique versus the Philippines.

Is it a case of nothing-can-be-done? No. Carpio suggests, among other things, lawfare (with specific examples), and missiles. Read his book.
