Send More Love to Your Mom this Mother’s Day

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Every day people are in a rush – and sadly on Mother’s Day this is no different. Some of us are squeezing the time to buy the perfect gift for our moms into our hectic work schedule, while the others have to seek the help of other people to buy the gift for them. And the challenge comes not only in the purchasing stage – it also occurs on the day itself, when people find it difficult to give their purchased present to their mom in person on her special day.

If you ever find yourself caught up in this situation, then you’ll be glad to know that Zyllem – one of the fastest growing logistics innovators in the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore – is happy to give you a hand in sending your parcels, sealing them with love and care.

According to Quito San Agustin, country managing director of Zyllem Philippines, most people in the workforce are able to buy their gifts for their moms but fail to give that to them personally because of time and distance constraints: “We all face the hurdle of finding a fantastic gift idea that’s as unique as our mother. But sometimes, we fail to send it to them right away because work impedes us from doing so, let alone the distance that separates us from our moms,” San Agustin said.

“Knowing this is true for many people around the Philippines — this Mother’s Day, we want to make sure that everyone will be able to show how much their mom means to them through our same day services. We will be open the entire Mother’s Day weekend so that we can help individuals in their surprise delivery. With our same day services, your mom is sure to receive her special Mother’s Day gift pack in good time," he said.

Rodrigo Duterte Shows BPI Bank Balances

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Rodrigo Duterte showed one BPI peso and one BPI dollar account at the Philippine Star press conference earlier today. Ipapakain daw niya kay Mar Roxas yung isa dahil sa paratang. Ganoon din kaya kay Sonny Trillanes? Abangan!

"Trillanes, asked by Rappler if he was satisfied with the March 31, 2014 certification, said, “No, definitely not. We are asking for the transaction history.”" - Rappler
The BPI Bank certification that Duterte showed to the Philstar press conference says he only has 1 account at BPI as of March 31, 2014 However, he showed 11 passbooks which could mean he has been very active in depositing and/or withdrawing, or he has been with the bank for a long time. What happened? We should see his bank transactions from the start and until the announcement of Trillanes. Not the current balance as of March 31, 2014. A lot could happen within two years from 2014 to the present.

Duterte also showed that his BPI dollar account has been stagnant since 2013. Why the need to show his dollar account when we know that is not what Trillanes is asking from him? Oh, it was Mar Roxas who claimed Duterte has large amounts in his dollar account? Let Duterte also show us all his peso accounts, not just one..or does he have only one?
