Ang Kritiko

  The Philippines is experiencing constant red tagging or an act of extra judicial tagging of a person as terrorist or rebel among its citizen. Thus; justice department issued a statement supporting a House Bill to criminalize the so called ‘red-tagging’.   So, why is it important to issue a Benefit of the Doubt to any person or group of people?   The act of calling someone a terrorist without sufficient proof is frowned upon, as it is irresponsible and malicious.

  The Aquino administration is by far the best compare to its predecessors in terms of country’s economic performance and clean government policies. The Philippines suffered two consecutive corrupt administration; who would forget the midnight cabinet of President Estrada, and fertilizer funds scam of the infamous Arroyo administration. It won’t be a surprise to tell that after an alleged corruption in the government, the economy will suffer too, because investors wont trust any corrupt government. Need not to say more about the embezzlement of funds occurred before Aquino’s administration. The “daang matuwid”campaign maxim of Aquino was popularized as an effective alternative at that moment.     Philippines - Fastest growing economy in Asia .   After severe debts, and stagnation of Philippine economy the Aquino administration manage to increases the country’s Gross domestic Product in 6.9 percent.

Ang mga isla na minsa'y sa atin, ngayon ay nasa kamay na ng Imperyalistang kalaban natin. Apat na taon matapos ang makasaysayang pagkapanalo ng Pilipinas sa Permanent Court of Arbitration sa The Hague Netherlands, Mariin pa rin iginigiit ng Tsina na ang buong West Phillippine Sea ay kanilang teritoryo. Ang pagkapanalo di umano ng Pilipinas ay iligal sapagpakat ang Tsina lamang ang may historikal na batayan sa pag-aangkin dito, naglabas din ang bansa ng Nine dash line, na kung saan ay sinasabing may soberanya ang Tsina sa lahat ng sakop ng linyang ito. Sa kabuuan ay kalahati ng karagatan sa Timog- Silangang Asya ang pasok sa nasabing nine dash line. Sa kabila ng hindi matapos na pang-aabuso ng Tsina sa mga mangingisda at sundalo ng Pilipinas sa West Phillipine Sea, ang gobyerno ng Pilipinas ay mas pinili na tahakin ang ligal na proseso sa pag protekta sa mga teritoryo nito. Batay sa  Sek. 2 Artikulo 2 ng 1987 Konstitusyon  " Itinatakwil ng Pilipinas ang digmaan bilang kasangkap...

"DILAWAN KA O KOMUNISTA, KAYA KA TAKOT SA TERROR BILL"!  Am I a terrorist ? or  just a Free Thinker. Aristotle once said that don't accept everything you hear as truth be critical and evaluate what you believe in. Same as true about the Anti-Terror Bill.  Just a while ago, Sen. Panfilo Lacson feared that if the bill will be vetoed by the president will wake up soon on the top spot of global terrorism index.  Activism is not a crime  Based on the recent events in our country, it is no surprise that we are vulnerable to be a potential breeding ground of radical idealism. Probably, the way to stop it from happening is to pass the Anti- Terror bill, according to its authors. But why other countries that have strong terrorism laws are still susceptible to a terror attack? The most conclusive answer, is we are fighting terrorism ineffectual. Given the danger of civil liberties impairment and constitutional violations, the terror bill is lacking of a l...

"HUY SI MAYOR NAG DONATE! WOW GALING NIYANG LIDER!" Amid a crisis, the well being of our nation is at risk and these trying times would be an era of darkness for every duly established state. But on the other hand, this would bring us some lesson that is evidently beneficial for our living. The story about philanthropist politicians became viral in social media. The elected officials from national to local government are donating their salaries or money for public use. The said news is well commended by people. Some would say, these people deserve to be elected on their post again, for good leadership. From that let us try to be critical, it is a work of compassion to put your money for mobilization of help in times of crisis but is it necessary to seek public office to become a philanthropist? To set an example, Ramon Ang from San Miguel Corp. and Jack Ma of Alibaba Corp, were able to extend their assistance to the people as a private individual. I'm not questioning t...
