Honda Ushers a Gen-S Kind of Christmas at SM Mall of Asia

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Honda Philippines once again made a spectacular event for the public and especially to its beloved Honda riders as they held a launch of their latest scooters and motorcycles Gen-S and All-New Honda BeAT on December 3, 2016 at the SM by the Bay area of the Mall of Asia Complex.

We were invited to attend the night program which started with some games or challenges to warm up the audience and set the mood for the nearing program was facilitated by a wacky DJ host and participated by motorcycle riders from different groups and locations. The winners from the games, as well as from the raffle, got to bring home motorcycle accessories like shirts, jackets and helmets.

The official start of the program was hosted by PBA courtside reporter and TV personality Apple David. This was followed by the top management of Honda Philippines, Daiki Mihara, President, coming up om stage to share his opening message. Surprisingly, Mr. Elie Salamangkit was not the one who shared the technical specs of the motorcycles. We later saw him with a bad throat which made him lose his voice. Get well soon to the long-haired Product Planning Manager of Honda Philippines.

The All-New Honda BeAT is a reflection of HPI’s dedication in developing trendsetting and groundbreaking scooters for the young, fun, sporty, and stylish millennials. It comes with a slim but sharp form. It also looks sportier with its new design wheels and tubeless tires while exuding that tech-savvy feel with its semi-digital meter panel with ECO indicator.

Chito Miranda and Neri Naig : Not Another Video Gone Viral!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Another video of Parokya ni Edgar frontman Chito Miranda and Neri Naig has gone viral once again and is being labeled as part 2 of the private moments between the two lovers.

The second video, which was said to have been uploaded on a Monday afternoon, September 30, on a Facebook page, was more graphic than the first video clip that went viral a few weeks ago.

Chito Miranda has already filed a formal complaint at the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to track down the person behind the viral spread of the first sex video.

What is also appalling for many netizens was the delivery of news by  the online version of a leading TV station. At first they released a video screen captured photo of Chito Miranda and Neri naig as grabbed from the video but with their faces clearly distinguishable and with Neri Naig's private parts clearly visible, now they've edited or release the same news with the photo now censored.

Alam ninyo ba iyong "sensationalism" sa journalism? Ito iyong perfect example nun.

Chito Miranda and Neri Naig Video : Leaked by Own Son?

Wazzup Pilipinas!

This has yet to be confirmed! But it's all over social media already and people are asking if its real or just a deliberate fake designed to confused us with the issues. It may just be a hoax trying to make fun of the sex video scandal of Parokya Ni Edgar vocalist Chito Miranda and Star Circle's former talent Neri Naig.

Who's laughing? Well I'm not! I'm practically shocked that a son, his own flesh and blood, could have the guts and the hatred to shame his own father in public.

Has family values gone so bad already in the Philippines because of the advancement in liberal thinking? Has our youth become rebels and immature brats? or is Chito Miranda guilty of a crime that even his own son couldn't stomach?

Is Chito Miranda a victim or is he the real reason why the world has seen his shame? Karma perhaps?
