Palitan na lang kaya ng dilaw ang kulay ng watawat ng Pilipinas

Sen. Bongbong Marcos after delivering the sponsorship speech to name Iloilo highways after parents of President Aquino and Leyte highway after his uncle.

Siguro naman seryoso si Sen. Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. sa kanyang pag-sponsor ng mga batas na ipangalan sa mga magulang ni Pangulong Aquino ang dalawang kalsada doon sa Panay.

Ang dalawang batas ay ideya ng mga kongresista na sina Arcadio H. Garriceta, Ronald M. Cosalan, Jerry P. Treñas, Arthur R. Defensor Jr., Neil C. Tiupas, Oscar “Richard” S. Garin Jr., atd Hernan G. Biron Jr. na nakasaad sa House Bills HB 4400 at HB 4398.

Nakasaad sa HB4400 na ipapangalan kay dating Pangulong Cory Aquino ang apat na lane na circumferential road simula sa kanto ng Iloilo-Dumangas Coastal Road sa Balabago, Jaro District, Iloilo City, papunta sa Buhang, Jaro, Tacas, Jaro at UngKa II, Pavia hanggang sa Mandurriao District, Iloilo City-Pavia-San Miguel . Aabot ang kalsada sa malapit Arevalo District sa Iloilo-Antique Road . Magiging “President Cory C. Aquino Avenue” ang kalsada.

Sa HB 4398 naman, gagawing “Senator Benigno S. Aquino Jr” Avenue ang buong haba ng national highway sakop ang Iloilo Diversion Road/Iloilo Capiz Road na nagsisimula sa kanto ng General Luna hanggang sa gate ng Iloilo International Airport. Dadaan ang kalsada sa bayan ng Pavia, Sta. Barbara, Cabatuan, at Iloilo City.
Hindi lang naman ang mga magulang ni Pangulong Aquino ang nasa-isip ni Sen. Marcos. Inisip din niya ang ang kanyang tiyo na si Benjamin “Kokoy” Romualdez, dating gubernador ng Leyte at ambassador ng Pilipinas sa United States.

Ipinasa sa mababang kapulungan ang HB 1042 na ginawa nina Conmgressman Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez at Ronald M. Cosalan.

Ayun daw kasi sa National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP), maaring ipangalan sa mga kalsada na may “historical and cultural significance” ay makadagdag sa ating pagpahangala ng ating pagmamahal at pagmamalaki sa bayan. Kailangan daw hindi bababa sa sampung taon nang namayapa ang taong bigyan ng dangal sa pagpapangalan sa kanya ng kalsada.

Sorry, hindi pa tayo magkakaroon ng Kris Aquino Boulevard o Bimby Aquino Yap Boulevard.

Kamakailan lang inaprubahan na ang House committee on public works and highways na palitan ang pangalan ng North Luzon Expressway (NLEx) ng President Corazon C. Aquino Expressway (CAEX).

Sa Bicol naman,sabi ni Public Works Secretary Rogelio Singson na ang ginagawa nilang highway sa Camarines Norte ay magiging “President Cory Aquino Boulevard.”

New Ant species named after former Pres. Cory Aquino. From ABS-CBN.

Hindi lang kalsada ang ipinapangalanan sa mga magulang ni Pangulong Aquino. Ipinangalanan din ng Museum of National History of the University of the Philippines-Los Baños (UPLB) ang bagong species ng langgam na kanilang nadiskubre sa kagubatan ng Palawan kay dating Pangulong Cory Aquino.

Kulang pa yata yan. Palitan na lang kaya natin ng dilaw ang kulay ng ating watawat.

    I am always amazed to see the crab culture at work among intelligent people. This need to tear down those who are honored, or who achieve, is simply beyond my ability to comprehend.

    And what is wrong with naming roadways, Public Buildings, Airports, and or Parks, after the people who served the country and those that were notables during their lives and times?

    The road busiest Freeway, and one of the widest, and some 817 kms long, is named after the founders of our country and its former Prime Ministers, the MacDonald – Cartier and streets are being changed to some notable people names…it is a good way to remind the future generations that once upon a time, there lived individuals who had made a difference for good to the nation…

    Like the Airport..someone would ask…who is Lester Pearson? (the name was changed from Toronto international to Pearson international) and the answer will be… a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate…Prime Minister..the Father of the United Nation Peace Keeping Force..and the PM who legislated the Universal Health care, the Pension Plan, old age Security..And who is Cory Aquino..a housewife who by Fate or Grace, has lead her country thru its darker hours and seen the rebirth of democracy…and give it a chance to flourish…and get blamed for what it became today…

    Ninoy Aquino sacrificed his life in the altar of freedom and democracy.

    Cory Aquino led our people in the fight for the restoration of our democratic institutions and way of life.

    What’s wrong with naming those public roads and buildings in their honor and memory?

    What is wrong is to entertain the thought of changing the color of our national flag just because we do not agree with honoring people who fought the good fight.

  4. Kung ano ano na lang ang ipinapangalan sa kalsada. Dapat magkaroon din ng kalsada na ang pangalan “Nagpatalsik kay Marcos Street.”

    May nabasa akong comment sa isang facebook account matapos na mailathala ang balitang ito.

    Sabi noong nag-comment ” Kung ako yung tongressman, yung mental hospital sa Mandaluyong ipapangalan ko kay Noynoy. Noynoy Aquino Mental Hospital.”

  6. “Ninoy Aquino sacrificed his life in the altar of freedom and democracy.”

    He also sacrificed the life of many of our youth teaching Marxism and Leninism.

    “Cory Aquino led our people in the fight for the restoration of our democratic institutions and way of life.”

    She helped destroy that very same democracy by conspiring with Arroyo to remove a democratically-elected president on trumped up charges courtesy of the scoundrel Chavit Singson and installed a cheat, liar, and thief in place.

    “What is wrong is to entertain the thought of changing the color of our national flag just because we do not agree with honoring people who fought the good fight.”

    Yeah and the president wears the yellow ribbon on his lapel instead of the Phil. Flag.

    Boom!

    Tongue, and dami ko ngang tawa dun. Mahigit 200.

    Tongue, what is wrong with Leninism and Marxism? Is Capitalism the only way? Or can we make a hybrid of both?
