Duterte encourages corruption
President Rodrigo Duterte believes that if cops are given money, even in amounts that are not allowed by law, they should accept it as long as it came from the contributor's "generosity." He said this on Friday, August 9, as he spoke to the country's top cops during the Philippine National Police's 118th Service Anniversary held in Camp Crame. "Hindi ko kayo iipitin, basta 'pag bigayan kayo eh tanggapin 'nyo. It is not bribery...it cannot be bribery because it is allowed by law. What I mean, if there is generosity in them, sabi ng anti-graft [law] you cannot accept gifts? Kalokohan," Duterte said. (I will not stop you. If you are given [something], take it. It is not bribery...it cannot be bribery because it is allowed by law. What...
Gilas Pilipinas FIBA
Any "normal" president of any country will support and encourage the national team in an international competition... Any, but surely not duterte who despises Filipinos :mad: Yes, the President of the Philippines is exhorting people to bet on another country, saying his country is no match for China.

Chinese are targeting three strategic islands in northern Philippines
The islands — Fuga in Cagayan province, and adjacent Grande and Chiquita in Subic Bay, Zambales province — play significant roles in the country’s national security, according to military officials.

Duterte vs fishermen: Is the Philippines lawyering for China?
President Rodrigo Duterte and his alter egos doubt their own countrymen whose boat was sunk by a Chinese ship in the West Philippine Sea on June 9, 2019 After 22 Filipino fishermen aboard fishing boat Gem-Ver were sunk by a Chinese vessel in the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea), they face another collision at home: with their own government. While the fishermen insisted that they were rammed by a Chinese vessel, President Rodrigo Duterte on June 17 dismissed their ordeal as a "maritime incident." At the same time, Duterte's men either refused to adopt the fishermen's statements or contradicted them outright. The President himself echoed China's foreign ministry, which said on June 13 that the sinking of Gem-Ver was an "ordinary...
Di na natuto ang tao sa marcos and aquino admin. (DDS & Dilawan)
DI NA NATAPOS TAPOS ANG ISSUE AT AWAY PULITIKA. Di na tayo natuto sa panahon ni Marcos at Aquino. May mangyayari o magbabago ba kung ipapa impeach ang pangulo o maipapakulong lahat ng oposisyon? There always be vindication after administration to administration. SINONG MAGDUDUSA KUNDI ANG BAYAN AT ANG SUSUNOD NA HENERASYON. This is a democratic country and there should be check and balance of power. YUNG MAHIHIRAP LALONG NAGHIHIRAP INSTEAD OF POLITICIZING LET US FIGHT CORRUPTION AND CRIME. Hindi yung "reverse physchology" at panay sisisihan. Yung presyo ng bilihin, mga dapat pagtuunan ng pansin, yung justice system at bilibid prison, education and health care ay mas dapat pagtuunan ng pansin hindi yung mga walang kwentang bagay na panay...
Duterte divides Palawan for easy Chinese takeover with the help of Sonny Angara
So here’s the breakdown of the proposed division of Palawan into many parts. Palawan del Sur will be the so-called “mother province” Aborlan Narra Quezon Rizal Espanola Brooke’s Point Bataraza Balacbac Kalayaan island group Palawan del Norte Coron Culion Busuanga Linacapan Taytay El Nido Palawan Oriental Roxas Araceli Dumaran Cuyo Agutaya Magsaysay Cayancillo So what does this mean for the people of Palawan? This means utter disregard of the welfare of its island inhabitants and the ploy to divide Palawan was purely political in design to split the powers and weaken the democratic will of the people. This move would surely benefit local politicians since this means more positions to fill and run for as well as more complex...
Hong Kong protests: YouTube shuts accounts over disinformation
Google has shut down 210 channels on YouTube it said were part of a "coordinated” attempt to post material about the ongoing protests in Hong Kong. The firm said attempts had been made to "disguise the origin of these accounts and other activity commonly associated with coordinated influence operations”. The search giant linked its move to similar action taken by Twitter and Facebook earlier this week. However, unlike those companies, Google stopped short of explicitly saying it believed the Chinese government had been behind the now-disabled accounts. Nor would it share further details on the nature or motivation of the material it had taken down from its platform. "Earlier this week,” a statement read, "as part of our ongoing efforts...
The pipe dream that is Build, Build, Build
Note to dds: before all od you cry "Rappler fake news", I suggest you have a look at all the sources cited in this article: they all come from the government! What’s the status of the Build, Build, Build projects? Why have they proceeded so slowly? How are we going to pay for them? They promised us a “golden age of infrastructure.” But all we got so far is a pipe dream. Build, Build, Build is being touted as the Duterte administration’s flagship economic project. With an original expected cost of P8.4 trillion spread over 6 years, Build, Build, Build is meant to usher in a “golden age of infrastructure,” bringing in new railways, roads, bridges, airports, etc. But more than two years since its launch, only two of the 75 projects...
