#NasaPusodKoAngPangulo X #MaySayadSiLeni

Wazzup Pilipinas!

So it really is a competition?

When will our President be told that the Vice President is just doing what's expected of her inspite of the lack of any specifically appointed task by the administration.

The country is being run by inexperienced shady personalities with very little knowledge of effective leadership.

Instead of admitting they lack the expertise, they have troll farms and DDS bloggers like Mocha red-tagging anybody who openly call out to the government's incompetence.

A funny thing was the DDS came up with a hashtag #NasaPusoKoAngPangulo but mistakenly trended #NasaPusodKoAngPangulo which was an obvious misspell.

Currently trending in the #Philippines = #NasaPusodKoAngPangulo. It's being used by Duterte supporters (probably foreign assets/dummy accounts). They don't know the difference between "puso" (heart) and "pusod" (bellybutton).

"The president is in our bellybuttons." LOL!

Now, they came up with another hashtag #MaySayadSiLeni

to effingly divert their mistake! 

DDS all the way! DOLOMITE all the way!

N K K L K !!! 

What really happens during aerial inspections with President Rodrigo Duterte and Senator Bong Go is nothing but a waste of helicopter expense.

You don't really need to go up into the air to determine how bad the effects of a typhoon were. We have satellites and control centers  from DOST projects that were budgeted to supposedly do such tasks at ease from the ground. The satellite eye will give us a better perspective and the computer could evaluate conditions to make us capable of making wiser decisions on our next moves.

I remember attending the launch of the second satellite data center in Davao as additional to the existing one in UP Diliman in Quezon City. Why was these facilities not used? If ever they were used, why am I not hearing anything from them?

Tangina tawang tawa ko sa mabahong hashtag na #NasaPusodKoAngPangulo. Can’t wait for Andanar to falsely claim that they made this trend in favor of Duterte.

With regards to Vice President Leni Robredo, I stan this woman. Trying to help with her limited resources and despite all the allegations being thrown at her.

Then Roque goes on to show the tweets of Robredo's daughters, saying they are the ones looking for the President. 

The tweets of Robredo's daughters did not name anybody. 

Sayang yung rights mo if you won't use it and just be contented with a shitty government.

Oceania Cruises sets booking record with 2022 summer season launch

Wazzup Pilipinas! 

Oceania Cruises, the world’s leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line announced that the launch of its 2022 Europe & North America Collection of voyages resulted in a record-setting day for a summer season launch. 

The record day represented a more than 20% increase over the line’s 2021 Europe & North America season launch, which occurred in August 2019.

Cruises to the Mediterranean and Baltic regions were exceptionally strong performers as were the line’s longer “Grand Voyages” that span multiple weeks and, in many instances, multiple continents. More than 90% of the reservations were new, cash bookings with less than 10% using future cruise credits issued for previously cancelled voyages. Additionally, one-third of the reservations were from first-time, new-to-brand guests.

“The tremendous response from our loyal repeat guests, our travel partners, and first-time guests underscores the tremendous pent-up demand for immersive, destination-focused cruises and our acclaimed small-ship experience that features The Finest Cuisine at Sea,” stated Bob Binder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oceania Cruises.

With the strong demand for voyages in 2022, the line will be opening its 2023 Around the World voyage for reservations in January 2021 followed by the full season of 2022-23 winter collection of itineraries in February. In the summer of 2021, the line will open the inaugural season of the first of its highly anticipated Allura Class newbuilds for sale.

Creadoras: A Tribute to Betsy Westendorp

Wazzup Pilipinas!

On November 18, at 6:00 PM, Instituto Cervantes held the virtual art exhibit Creadoras: A Tribute to Betsy Westendorp, in gratitude for her generous donation of the artwork "Passage" and in recognition of her artistic career.

Together with Fernando Zóbel and Juvenal Sansó, the Spanish painter Betsy Westendorp, who considers the Philippines as her adoptive country, is perhaps the contemporary artist who best represents the connection between Spanish and Filipino art.

In its efforts to promote outstanding women on National Women’s Month, an exhibition in honor of Ms. Westendorp was initially programmed for March 14. However, it did not push through due to the lockdown. Instead, Instituto Cervantes created a short documentary, giving us a tour of the exhibition and an exclusive interview in which the artist tells us about her life and her work.

The highlight of the event is Betsy’s painting “Passage”, which is of special significance for the artist. This is accompanied by the works of various Filipino and Spanish artists with which they pay tribute to Westendorp, namely Phyllis Zaballero, Ivi Avellana Cosio, Marivic Rufino, Vicky Zubiri, Eva Baró, Carmen Brias, Cristina Grisar and Inma Ortoll.

The documentary will be followed by an interview with fellow artists Phyllis Zaballero and Marivic Rufino, as well as Ms. Tina Colayco, president of the Metropolitan Museum of Manila, and finally, a message from Betsy herself.

Creadoras: A Tribute to Betsy Westendorp is presented by Instituto Cervantes and the Embassy of Spain in the Philippines, with the collaboration of the Intramuros Administration and the contributing artists, as well as Manila-born Spanish musician Luis Eduardo Aute.

The link for the event is https://zoom.us/j/95665972044. Access is free of charge and open to all. For further information visit https://manila.cervantes.es or the Facebook page of Instituto Cervantes: www.facebook.com/InstitutoCervantesManila.
