Famous Quotes of the Year 2013: May Hahabol Pa Ba?

Wazzup Pilipinas!They say we must be very careful with our words. Everything that we say, or whatever comes out from our mouths may reflect what is in our minds, and may haunt us for life.We can't get away with an excuse of temporary insanity unless we play the part of a fool. History will record and quote us, and we may face even a criminal offense because of it.

However, most of the time, people get away with it, or we just categorize it under the humor section and laugh it off like it was a terrible joke.

Not all of us are popular enough to have our words forever written and immortalized in the journals or history books but everyone hurt in the process will recall and judge us forever for what was spoken in the past.

The Martilyo Gang Strikes Again: PNoy and Mar to the Rescue

Wazzup Pilipinas!

So what will bring the President of the Philippines rushing to a crime scene? 

No. I think the most asked question right now is: Was the jewelry heist more important than the Typhoon Yolanda calamity?

"Mas mahalaga ang mga nanakaw na jewelry kaysa sa mga biktima ng Tacloban. Ano ba kayo?"

"Dear PNOY it took you days to get to Tacloban after the deadly storm, pero ambilis sa scene of the crime nang may nangyari sa SM North... Paki ekplain..""I do understand that the crime happened near him, pero was his response really needed? It's sending a wrong message to the public."

"Kasi nga daw kaya siya mabagal sa Tacloban, MGA ROMUALDEZ ANG TACLOBAN AT AQUINO SIYA."

"Malaki daw tax na binabayaran ng SM. Or baka, may "royalties" ang SM for the Office of the President."

“Today, we find ourselves at a time where we are cleaning up and strengthening our systems and processes; at a time when we once more face a crossroads—if we choose what is right and what is straight, this is the path that will bring us to true and meaningful change in society. It is my hope that, as a people, we will see today’s destruction of the culture of corruption as part of our goal to achieve inclusive growth.”

-President Benigno S. Aquino III, in the speech on October 2, 2013, where he announced more government-reform initiatives, including sweeping changes in the Bureau of Customs

Napoles, Malacanang and the Pork Barrel Conspiracy Theories

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"These allegations merits a PUBLIC SHARE on my timeline not for any other reasons other than knowing the whole TRUTH about the matter. The article presented a lot of questions that needs to be answered and as of this moment there have been no attempts to provide a satisfactory 'no bullshit' answers to all the QUESTIONS!" - Raine De Ocampo

NAPOLES HAD LUNCH AT PALACE BEFORE SHE SURRENDERED TO PNOY

(Personal Note: As it appears, their battery of online trolls - the same ones who attack me each time I have a column that is critical of the President - have succeeded in blocking the link to this article, flagging it as having malicious/ inappropriate content. How can the link to a Manila Standard Today article be blocked from being posted/shared on Facebook? Is someone afraid because the truth is starting to come out? Solution: Copy-paste. Please share so these trolls' efforts will be for naught.)

Contrary to what the nation and the rest of the world have been led to believe, President Benigno S. Aquino III spent several hours in “closed- door conversations” with Janet Lim Napoles, the suspected mastermind in the alleged P10-billion pork barrel scam involving selected opposition lawmakers, before showcasing to the media her formal “surrender” to “the only person she trusted,” on the evening of August 28, 2013, authoritative sources have revealed.

This incredible detail was completely left out of Malacanang’s official statement, which had sought to present Aquino’s meeting with Napoles as no more than a 10-minute affair that ended an otherwise fruitless manhunt of a celebrated fugitive from justice, and was witnessed by several Cabinet members and duly recorded for posterity by the Malacanang press office.
