Philippine Political Opinions

" Last October, OFWs sent home cash worth $2.23 billion—the second highest monthly amount on record, exceeded only by the $2.32 billion remitted in December 2014. From January to October, cash remittances totaled $20.64 billion, up 3.7 percent from $19.91 billion a year ago. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas expects remittances to increase to $25.6 billion this year from $24.35 billion in 2014." -  Inquirer Opinions This made me rethink, those  people involved with "Tanim-Bala"  are heartless.

I decided to make the title short because I honestly don't know how to  make a title fitting for the presidential candidate, we all know as Mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte or some calls him Digong... Remember my last post? A contributor told me Digong will  surely run . Eventhough he's not right about the tandem of Duterte-Marcos, Marcos ran for VP and Duterte for President.

Filipinos around the world specially those who knew FPJ can surely spot where i borrowed the title from. Well, now is different, Filipinos and even foreigners know this: the "TANIM BALA". i don't know if it's a scam, an extortion, or the alleged people who "brought" with them bullets are really planning to do crimes. Now, here is my OCO (One Centavo Opinion):

What on earth would be #aldub has to do about politics? Honestly, I can't answer yet. maybe it's because #aldub and the hashtag tweet of #aldubEBTamangpPanahon is about 19+ million hits as of this writing, i'm pretty sure that politicians would like to make these two (Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza) as one of their endorsers. i'm hoping that not in the near future, Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza won't run for politics as what some artists do.

Even Mayor Duterte said he is " not running for president ", there is someone who contributed to me with this write up and said that I can post it in this blog. I happily agree.

I remembered I posted a blog sometimes in 2009 , in preparation of 2010 (presedential) elections. I do remember our university was flooded (literally and figuratively) with heavy rains and "heavy" (because they are "big time") politicians. Out of curiosity I sometimes find my self trying to see what those politicians look like in person and I remembered that I was amazed how thin and how good looking they are in person. Even some politicians claimed that they are from poor families, they have really glowing skins.

Jejomar "Jojo" C. Binay Sr., the Vice President of the Republic of the Philippines, made a statement that he will amend the term for local and national officials if he will win the 2016 elections. In his speech given to the crowd in Negros Occidental,  "Itong term na ito, hindi ako naniniwala diyan. Kailangan one to sawa 'yan. Hanggang gusto ng tao. Kaya kung merong amendment sa Constitution, ipapaalis ko ang term limitation hanggang gusto, iboto nang iboto"

i remembered that I posted  a while ago and it seems that Chiz decided not to run in favor of Noynoy with Roxas   as his running mate.

hi! it's been 4 years since I've last posted and I miss posting about opinions regarding the politics in the Philippines. i posted http://politics-opinions.blogspot.com/2011/04/right-against-self-incrimination.html because i was so irritated by their excuses.
