Epson Supports Batangas Youth Through School Desk Donation

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Social responsibility response has increased tremendously over the past years. Many companies now recognize the need to help and support the country by means of helping out the less fortunate and the "poorest of the poor" as a priority to gain a more significant improvement in the condition of society.

The most important need of the country is in Education. I am surprised why the government couldn't really address efficiently the needs of schools for a more meaningful Education system There will always be a lack of everything to the most important factor in society next to food and employment opportunities.
It is admirable to see companies and organizations who are willing to lend a hand to provide the much needed basic necessities.

Seeing an unexpected 35% rise in the student enrollment rate this year in Lipa City, Epson responded by providing school desks to three public schools.

Janet Lim Napoles Surrenders

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The government offered a Php10 million reward for information that will lead to the arrest of Janet Lim-Napoles. Napoles is wanted on charges of serious illegal detention arising from the alleged kidnapping of Benhur Luy. But the real issue is her participation in the billion of pesos PDAF scam.

But after just a few days, we now hear of news that Napoles has surrendered to no less than the President of the Philippines. The President immediately turned her over to the custody of Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas and Philippine National Police Director-General Alan Purisima for processing and booking.

Napoles was shielded immediately . No Media, No Mugshot. Senate and Congress have instructions to keep the comfort rooms clean, as they expect massive usage...hahaha.

Is this an indication that the corruption may really be that hugely associated or linked with big people under the Executive that Napoles had to go to the top?
