Statement of former senior government officials:
We are former senior government officials who have served the government in the administrations of Presidents Marcos, Aquino, Ramos, Estrada and Arroyo. Today we see how the institutions of government are being manipulated, weakened, and corrupted. We are committed to help rebuild and strengthen the government institutions in which we worked to serve the public good rather than personal and partisan interests.
Our people can only trust a government that governs with truth. We grant government so much power over our lives, resources and shared future because it governs with truth. When there are serious doubts about government’s adherence to truth in matters of vital public interest, no real peace or substantive unity is possible until such doubts are resolved. We cannot move on without the truth.
We are now in the midst of great disturbance because we doubt the truth behind the NBN-ZTE deal. President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo had belatedly cancelled the contract because of reported “anomalies”. Hence, most Filipinos reasonably conclude that corruption tainted this deal. For several months now at the hearings of the Senate investigation, we have all seen disturbing glimpses of the truth about alleged corruption that attended the NBN-ZTE deal. We are outraged by what we have seen thus far.
The President said recently: “Ang taumbayan galit sa katiwalian. Ganoon din ako, galit din ako sa katiwalian.” We affirm the first sentence. We ask that the second sentence be demonstrated in action. Having belatedly cancelled the contract to show her supposed anger with reported corruption in this deal, the President must now follow through with actions to determine the actual “anomalies” and establish responsibility for these. Otherwise, canceling the contract could be interpreted as an effort to cover up corruption rather than to pin it down and root it out.
Government should serve the truth and the President should act immediately and decisively to enable the truth to emerge.
The most credible forum thus far to establish the truth behind the NBN-ZTE controversy is the Senate investigation that has persevered in seeking facts and witnesses. The Senate is a functioning democratic institution that can help the people recognize the truth about this divisive matter. We thus call on the President to cooperate fully with the Senate and stop denigrating it so that its investigation can be completed as soon as possible. In particular, we ask the President to lead in showing government’s commitment to the truth by taking the following actions which can reasonably be done within one week:
• First, order acting Chair Romulo Neri to resume his testimony before the Senate investigation without any restrictions or limitations;
• Second, order the release and delivery to the Senate of all public records pertaining to the NBN-ZTE deal, starting with the minutes of the NEDA Board meetings on the project;
• Third, suspend DOTC Secretary Leandro Mendoza and Assistant Secretary Lorenzo Formoso, as the DOTC was the lead agency for this project;
• Fourth, suspend DENR Secretary Lito Atienza, PNP Director General Avelino Razon, Deputy Executive Secretary Manuel Gaite, Deputy NAIA Chief Angel Atutubo, Senior Supt. Paul Mascarinas and all those involved in the attempt to prevent Senate witness Jun Lozada from testifying; and
• Fifth, order a halt on any further attempts by such agencies as the DOJ, DENR, NBI and BIR to harass Senate witness Jun Lozada and those who are testifying in behalf of the truth.
The Filipino people can make democratic institutions work to fight corruption by even the most powerful people in our midst. We can do this based on the power of reason and the power of the people’s communal action. We deserve a government that governs with truth.
The President must demonstrate her commitment to the truth through these actions within one week as more and more of our people make their judgment. She must do these or be condemned as complicit with, and in fact, as being at the center of, the lies surrounding the NBN-ZTE deal.
The President must do these or the people will make their judgment and act on the basis of their conviction.

Gloria Arroyo’s reply:
Gloria: I’ll stay till 2010
by Regina Bengco
President Arroyo yesterday said she would step down only when her term ends in 2010, in accordance with the Constitution and her own wishes.
“In the Philippines, there is and there shall continue to be due process, rule of law, and utmost respect for the Constitution. This is my pledge as president and commander-in-chief,” she said at the signing of the Civil Aviation Act.
She said the rule of law should prevail over politics.
“Pagtupad sa batas ang panata ng bawat pinunong halal at opisyal na hinirang. Ito ang aking gagawin, kahit hindi muna maunawaan ng marami lalo na kahit bigyan pa ng masamang kulay ng mga namumulitika… No one’s rights must be sacrificed just to spare government leaders from the ire of protesters and the fire of politicians,” she said.
National security adviser Norberto Gonzales said “there is no stopping those who want to topple the government even if they know that they have no chance. Some people are living on illusions. Let’s just let them be.”
Tourism Secretary Joseph Ace Durano said the political rallies and resignation calls against President Arroyo do not affect tourism because they continue to be “local news” and are not picked up in the international media.
Chief presidential legal counsel Sergio Apostol said the former Cabinet members who are calling on Arroyo’s Cabinet men to resign should stop because they had their chance and they were never pressured into resigning during their time.
Apostol said even students are getting tired of rallies, adding that students in Cebu spurned Lozada and told him that they already “know the truth.”
The senior government officials from the Marcos to the Arroyo administrations gave President Arroyo a week to follow through with her anti-corruption pronouncements.
Anthony Golez, deputy presidential spokesman, said: “The former Cabinet secretaries very well know that one can’t dictate to any president.”
The officials demanded, among others, that Arroyo order acting Higher Education chair Romulo Neri to resume his testimony, without any restrictions or limitations, before the Senate which is investigating the national broadband network project that Arroyo cancelled last year amid allegations of payoffs and anomalies.
Golez said the Palace is awaiting the final decision of the Supreme Court on Neri’s petition regarding his attendance to the Senate probe.
On the demand to dismiss Transportation Secretary Leandro Mendoza and assistant secretary Lorenzo Formoso, Golez said the issue is already being investigated by the Ombudsman.
He also said there was no kidnapping as claimed by Rodolfo Noel Lozada, the Senate’s key witness.
On the demand for Arroyo to order the release and delivery to the Senate of all public records pertaining to the NBN deal, he said government has submitted to the Senate all documents pertaining to the broadband project.
Deputy presidential spokeswoman Lorelei Fajardo said the “ex-men” should give the High Court time to settle the issue.
Fajardo said the former officials should be “more circumspect” in calling for the suspension of some government executives.
“We assume that all acts of the gentlemen in question were done with presumption of regularity. Complaints have been filed and investigations are being conducted… So let’s give them the chance to defend themselves and if there should be any findings, the appropriate action can be considered by the President,” she said.
someone told me a long time ago that the crazy thing about running after marcos is that the government was playing by the rules to catch a man who clearly did not. ganun din ngayon. the senate is hesitant to assert its power while malacanang asserts more than its legitimate share of power and in the same breath,is demanding that the public follow due process. it is asking the people not to involve the military even as she herself uses that same power to her own end. when she relinquishes her grip on the military and allow them to be non-partisan, only then should the public not involve the military. otherwise, we are put in a position where we play by the rules while the enemy of the state has no rules to live by.
““In the Philippines, there is and there shall continue to be due process, rule of law, and utmost respect for the Constitution.” — power grabber Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo
Nakupo! Hindi na kinilabutan ang dwende na magsalita ng mataas!
May rule of law ba kay Evil Bitch? She has her own set of laws. If it goes her way, it is lawful.
Very powerful stand from the “ex men”. Let us just pray that the Evil Bitch will heed their call. I doubt that she will but at least a stand by these experienced cabinet men is another “baby step” to resolve the NBN issue.
Omigawd! The bitch is president and commander-in-chief DAW!
At meron daw due process sa Pinas!
At meron daw rule of law sa Pinas!
At meron daw Konstitusyon na nirerespeto sa Pinas!
Huh! Psycho case talaga ang bitch!
“… galit din ako sa katiwalian.” – The bitch
Galit ang bitch sa katiwalian kung iba ang gumagawa!
@chi,
i think it’s more…
“… galit din ako sa katiwalian.” – The bitch
… katiwalian sa kanya nang mga kachuva nya! hehehe!
Kailangan na talagang magpakalalaki ni Neri kung mayroon pa siyang lawit at magsalita na siya para malaman na ng taong bayan ang dapat nilang gawin na Away o Gulo.
Chi;Nagbalikbayan si Pareng Joeseg at nasa bahay,miss ka na niya.
Look the stupid woman says there is rule of law in the Philippines. Yup, meron—her own version!
Wow! Look, 658 Feedburner subscribers! That glitch helped this blog’s popularity some more
The letter is commendable. but evil bitch Gloria is not going to buy her own rope to put around her neck. Like she said, she’s staying until 2010, thats final. Evil bitch got her own agenda, and the people must do what need to be done to rid of Gloria. We can forget Gloria cooperating or resigning, it’s not in her vocabulary. Gloria knew fully well what’s going to happen to her, her family and those co-corruptors that has been on her loyal side all these years,if she ever relinquish the office. Imagine, even 80,000 warm bodies on the streets couldn’t even do the job to rid of her.
Dapat magalit ang mga pilipino sa pambabastos ng animal na ito sa batas ng Pilipinas. Frankly, my group and I are joining a rally on Friday in front of the US Embassy in Tokyo re the rape of Filipino women by US servicemen.
You bet, we are including the case of Nicole in our protest as we want an apology from the US ambassador here for the insult and complete disregard for the rule of law even with the consent of the Evil Bitch when the US Embassy there continued to meddle in judicial process there and demand for custody of a convicted felon just because the ambassador there feels that Philippine prison is not up to US standards!
Just shows how lowly the Americans regard the Filipinos when the US ambassador there would even try to make such deal with the fake president as to abduct the horny US soldier from Philippine court custody in the wee hours of he morning and transported to the US Embassy, and never heard of since.
Over here, even Rice came to apologize to the Japanese government for the lascivious, etc. acts of US soldiers in Japan with a promise to have them behave by all means. the US ambassador likewise has apologized and ordered curfew to be imposed on US military personnel detailed in Japan.
Kaya bakit mas akala mo mga hari ang mga mokong sa Pilipinas when their continued presence there is even a violation of the Constitution?
Dapat magalit ang mga pilipino sa pag-iinsulto ng mga hayop na Pidal na iyan sa mismong Saligang Batas ng bansa nila!
Assumptionista,
As you said, the bitch went to AC. I bet she begged for support. Ang nakuha niya ay statement from alumnae and former classmates asking her to dump EO 464.
Ano kaya ang sagot at gagawin ng tiny bitch alumna? Gising na ang assumptionistas, konti na lang sa kanila ang bulag, pipi at bingi sa panawagan ng madlang pinoy. It’s never too late to make a stand.
“We make a stand and proudly add our voices to the millions of ordinary Filipinos who clamor for truth, accountability and reforms,” said the statement signed by 292 Assumption alumnae that was a veritable list of who’s who in Philippine society.-inquirer
“Imagine, even 80,000 warm bodies on the streets couldn’t even do the job to rid of her.”
Ang tibay ng sikmura ng babaeng Pidal. The evilbitch must be waiting for 1M warm bodies para kaladkarin siya! Subukan pamo para mabalo!
kakahilakbot naman itong si Karina David. Di na ba sya nahiya? Nung time nya sa Civil Service andami ding umaangal tungkol sa mga nangyayari dun. Hinintay nya pa talaga na matapos ang termino nya tsaka sya umangal. How convinient!

Hindi lang si David, pati na si JdV, et al. Magrereklamo lang pag sila nadehado. Walang magagawa. Sapagkat sila ay tao lamang! 😛
All she thinks about is the economy getting better, but what about the people? They getting poorer everyday. She need to do something about it. Hinahakot ng dwende yong pera ng taong bayan.
That has yet to be proven, Enteng. And about the economy getting better, you can’t deny that. The poor will get poorer if they don’t do anything to help themselves.
Grizzy said, “Hindi lang si David, pati na si JdV, et al. Magrereklamo lang pag sila nadehado.” May I add to that Lozada. Hehe.
“Government should serve the truth” and nothing but the truth. But with this government, truth is a very rare commodity, hard to find and almost non-existent. Where the truth does not exist; lies abound. Truth is never allowed to rear its beautiful head, never allowed to take a breather that even in it’s conception, it’s already being aborted. So what lies beneath the lies are the truth buried by evil queen gloria and her gang. Oh yeah, under this evil regime, the truth is dead and buried, but thanks to one Jun Lozada, truth is slowly being resurrected and coming to life.
Oh yeah Jerz, if only the poor has the proper and right connections with Gloria and her gangs, just like you they can help themselves with huge kickbacks and commissions.
Economy getting better? Who says so? Iyong sinungaling? Why believe her?
Sipain na iyang makapal na mukhang iyan.
Oust Gloria Dorobo! Tama Na, Sobra Na, Sipain Na!
Hahaha. The poor don’t need huge kickbacks and commissions. They’re content with the money you’re giving them to attend your rallies. Hahaha.

Oh, c’mon grizzy. The economic reviews were not done by GMA.
Re: They getting poorer everyday
Oh come on let’s cook Gloria’s 7.5% fantastic economic gain.
What went wrong Gloria? Bakit dumadami ang mga mahihirap? Please don’t blame the opposition, Erap or the weather.
3.8 million more poor Filipinos in 2006 than in 2003

NSCB: More Pinoy families getting poorer
http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryId=111250
The rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Why? I know you yourselves can answer your question. Don’t blame it all on the government.
Blame on crony capitalism. José Pidal and his gang directly benefited from anomalous NBN-ZTE broadband scam, Cyber education, over-priced North and South Rail projects, Transco misdeal, Joc-Joc Bolante’s fertilizer scam and others.
To rebut some of what they (Evil and Minions)said:
“Pagtupad sa batas ang panata ng bawat pinunong halal at opisyal na hinirang”
– This is rubbish. She CHEATED! Therefore, she is NOT duly elected. her stay is ILLEGAL!
Tourism Secretary Joseph Ace Durano said the political rallies and resignation calls against President Arroyo do not affect tourism because they continue to be “local news” and are not picked up in the international media.
– SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST (HKG) have run the stories in their issues, supplied by Raissa Robles. REUTERS has interviewed JUN. IHT has run story on this, so did BBC. Mr Durano, I have a group of 320++ travellers for company team building duration of which is 8DAYS, I will make it known to them the state of the nation and would send them to Thailand instead of Cebu and Bohol. This is scheduled for MAY 2008, to prove my point to you I will cancel all arrangements and send them to Thailand! Consider this LOSS of revenue to the resorts and outlets in Bohol and Cebu.
He also said there was no kidnapping as claimed by Rodolfo Noel Lozada, the Senate’s key witness.
Mr Golez, I can assure you there indeed was KIDNAPPING that took place, I know this for a fact, I have the details! I should know…go figure as to why I know!
CEBU: Mr Wetness! – it was Vice Mayor Rama who said Cebuanos is aware of the NBN/ZTE Deal. Read the C4T press release and they arranging and anticipating Jun’s arrival, unfortunately No Confirmed Scheduled has been decided as yet. The main reason though, is that the Cebu officials are scared that if JUN will have School Tours in Cebu, the Students, Youth and the Innocents will totally LOSE respect to the government and its officials, This is from V-Mayor RAMA himself.
ZTE/NB DEAL DOCS – if submitted to the Senate, where is ORIGINAL CONTRACT signed and witnessed by gloria?
Complaints have been filed and investigations are being conducted… So let’s give them the chance to defend themselves and if there should be any findings, the appropriate action can be considered by the President,” Ms. FAJARDO, lift the EO 464 and we could get started on finding the TRUTH!
The Philippines has NO JUSTICE system, it has LEGAL system, where the bad guys and the Evil ones can circumvent the laws to suit their desire!
Therefore, the government should quit their posts, as their president is a CHEATER!
The rule of law ni Gloria: Cover-ups, lapse in judgment, selective amnesia, gridlock, bribery, intimidation, harassment, arbitrary arrest and detention, extra-judicial killings, web of lies and half-truths, deceit and fraud. Kapag kakampi ni Gloria sa kurakutan walang kulong. Sa P7.3 bilyon lantarang kurakutan wala pang naparusahan.
MANILA – Umabot na sa P7.3 bilyon ang halaga ng nawawaldas na pera ng bayan dahil sa katiwalian sa gobyerno sa nakalipas na pitong taon, ayon sa militanteng think tank na IBON Foundation nitong Martes.
Ayon sa IBON, si Pangulong Gloria Macapagal Arroyo na ang naging pinaka-tiwaling pinuno sa kasaysayan ng bansa.
http://www.gmanews.tv/story/83309/P73-B-pera-ng-bayan-nawaldas-sa-katiwalian—IBON
Kailangan na talagang ilabas ang katotohanan para magdesisyon na ang taong bayan.Biruin natin,halos umabot na sa mahigit $30 billion na pala ang naipautang ng China sa atin,ang population ng pinoy ay wala pang 100 million.Kung iyang 30 billion na iyan ay ipamahgi sa bawat pinoy Asus! lahat ay makakakain ng masasarap.Pero utang iyan mga katoto,hindi pa kinikita at iyan ay babayaran ng mga ilang taon.Kawawa naman ang mga isisilang ng mga Maria,nasa koob pa lang sila ng sinapupunan pagluwal nila ay mayroon na silang utang na babayaran.Mabuti sana kung mamatay na si Gloria ay utang kalimutan na.
Kaya nga pesting buhay ang masisilayan ng mga hindi pa naisisilang,baka nga mga apo pa natin ang magbabayad niyan.Ipakulam ko kaya iyang si Gloria.Tungaw Talaga!
The economy is on downward spiral. Those figures presented are buuble economy. The Peso is gaining agaisnt the DOLLAR not because of Evils economic prowess and programs, but that the USD has lost its ground against major currencies in the world, due to Subprime and Oil Price Hike, The War Chest among others. Never that the Peso is up against USD because of Economic gains by the Philippines. Look at HKD which is pegged to the USD, it is also losing its value. The poorer could get better if the government is providing opportunities to the whole populace not just to the chosen few! No less than the BSP has admitted that remittances by OFW’s is waht is keeping the economy of the Philippine Government afloat. They also mentioned that the government is mulling the filing of charges (Economic Sabotage) to the OFW’s for their NO REMITTANCE DAY, which incientally would be on regular basis until EVIL has stepped down!
Go to the airport and you would see the number of Filipinos leaving for work abroad, if the economy is that good as the government claims to be, why so many Filipinos are working abroad? This I know for a fact. Cathay Pacific has 5 Daily flights out of Manila to HKG, with approximately 300 passemgers per flight, 15-20 % of this are OFW’s. This not include otehr airlines, Thai Airways, Singapore Airlines among others! And Yet you claim the Economy is getting better!!! You must be out of yout mind!!!!!
Pareng Diego,
Bilyones iyan Ha! at hindi milyon.Iyung mga nanalo nga ng milyon sa WOWOWEE at abot kisami ang lundag sa tuwa.Kay Arroyo pala ay pamunas lang niya ng puwit ang pera.Simberguerza! iyang tatay niyan na si Dadong ay sultero lang sa komedya at walang piso ang laman ng bulsa,anong ipinamana niya kay Gloria.Iyang mga Pidal naman ay yumaman lang sa pagpirma at naging Tongressman pa ang utol niya.Naala-ala ko tuloy ang utol ni Bill Clinton pag tumutogtog sila ng saksupon.
$30 billion loan minus moderate greed 20% =$6 billion komisyon. Siyemre ang taumbayan ang magdusa at magbayad sa $6 billion komisyon.
Jerz: The rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Why? I know you yourselves can answer your question. Don’t blame it all on the government.
We dont blame the government, we blame it to the people who are in the government like the PRESIDENT. LULI is that you? if that person who sit in the highest government position do something about it this would not happen. Poor people would have jobs. OFWs woudnt have to go abroads looking for a jobs. But she have done is make her deep pockets gets fatter by letting her husband run the show and pretend that she didnt know anyhthing.
Pareng Diego,
Lagi akong pina-alalahan ng mga magulang ko na huwag magpakain ng anak na galing sa nakaw dahil baka paglaki nila ay magnanakaw ang labas.Sabi ko naman sa kanila ay huwag silang mag-alala sa akin dahil hindi pa ako nananalo sa pagka mayor.Kaya iyung dalawang anak ni Gloria sa Tongresso na mukhang kabayo ay magiging magnanakaw numero uno at numero dos.
Kumukulo na naman ang dugo ko sa Supreme Court! The justices seem to be protecting the Evil Bitch again! How can the truth on the ZTE deal be uncovered when they are not allowing Neri to reveal everything he knows about the ZTE deal. The three important questions leading to the Evil Bitch can not even be asked! Ano ba yan? Do these justices really care for the country or they are just there to protect her! What would happen to the country with a tongress that is in the Evil Bitches’ pocket, a Supreme Court that is equally divided(not for long because when the Evil Bitch will appoint two more, lagot na!) and almost all the agencies are full of her appointees?
Enteng;
Nakana mo pare–We dont blame the government, we blame it to the people who are in the government like the PRESIDENT.Sabi nga ni Spartan ay malinaw iyan ng tulad ng itinitindang water bottle.Mahirap i-object iyang statement mo,susurender sa iyo sa korte ang mga abugado na graduate ng Yale at Harvard University.
Anak ng jueteng may parameters at restrictions ang SC compromised Neri formula. Halatang panig sila kay Gloria. Pinapatagal nila ang drama. Dito natin nakikita ang tunay na kulay ang mga huwes.
Yes, it’s me, LULI. hehehe.
Hi LULI, nice to see you… when did you have your braces out? oops sorry, wala pala 🙂
How rude was Kabayag with the media! Sabi niya nobody can tell him what he has to do! He does not have any power yet but he is already acting like a hoodlum! Lalo akong nanggigil sa mabalatkayong buwayang ito!
Pakitanong kay Noli De Castro kung ano ang pinagkaiba ng Sining ng Komunikasyon at Sining ng Kompromiso?
Asspweron is trying to build more cases against the incarcerated officers. He is saying that they are recruiting for a coup from their cells. HOW DESPERATE CAN THIS MAN BE? He is also harping that he is being recruited by a retired general but he does not want to name him! Manang mana siya sa bluffer niyang reyna. Bagay na bagay nga kayong magsama ni Evil Bitch. SINUNGALING NA MAGNANAKAW PA!
Don’t worry, I’ll ask him.
Observation ko lang, but I remember seeing a picture of Gloria and Loren wearing their Assumption Convent uniform prior to election 2004. I thought then that the two were already cooking up an alliance to run as Pres. and VP, but for some freak of fate, Gloria chose Kabayad to be her partner in crime, more I guess because she knew she was no match to Loren. The rest, of course, is history.
To me, however, it does not mean Gloria was wise, because this idiot in fact does not use her head, just a lot of mouth, labas pa ang ngipin. Ayaw lang ng kompetensiya, and Loren was definitely one.
So with that kind of mentality and attitude—puedeng tamaan kung saan siya mahina—who says that no one can pull down the Midget from her tower. It’s actually now about to crumble. Konting hinang na lang!
haha! jerz, ang hinihiling lang namin eh maging totoo sana yung pinagsususulat mo dito. Where did you get the idea na binayaran yung mga pumunta sa rally. Kahit yung gobyernong sinasamba mo walang line na ganun. Buti pa yata gobyerno sa yo, sa isandaang sinabi may isang totoo. ikaw sa isandaan, isandaan at isa ang sablay.
Mukhang kulang pa ang “retirement” money ni ass from the Evil Bitch kaya gumagawa na naman ng bagong pakulo ang kumag! Pinagdidiskitahan na naman niya nag mga bihag niya (the 28 detained officers). Asspweron, you are a LOW LIFE SUCKING BASTARD!
Hahaha. Parasamasarap, yung sinabi kong yon ay hakahaka lang naman, gaya rin ng karamihan ng sinasabi nyo rito na di nyo kayang patunayan.
Nelbar:
Na miss kita kaibigan,ang tagal mong nawala.Ang pagkakaalam ko lang kay Noli ay manipis ang dictionary niya at tinipid pa ang pag-iinglish.Natuturete na ang tainga ko sa lagi niyang sinasabi tuwing napapanood ko siya sa TV—I am a constitutional successor—Boring!
Nakahanda na kaya ang gabinete ni Noli De Castro at sila naman ang maninindikato?
well, jerz, i think your brain had been addled so much by Gloria propaganda that you can’t distinguish truth from fallacy even if it stares you right in the eyes. Mabuti naman at inamin mong haka-haka lang yung sa ‘yo.hehehe… ’nuff said!

May ebidensya ka ba na nabayaran yung mahihirap na sinasabi mo?
Ano naman ang tingin mo sa pinakitang ebidensya ni Gov. Panlilio tungkol sa bayaran sa malacanang?
Maramirami nang mahihirap ang mababayaran para magrally kung nababayaran man sila d’ba?
yes, a government should serve the truth.
we need a government that serves the rights of its people, a government that respects the will of its people and a government that rightly upholds the authority vested by its people.
mssmark: ‘yun nga ang problema kay jerz eh. nandidilat na ang katotohanan sa harap nya pero mas nais nya pang maging ignorante. well, whatever floats his boat… pero again, tama ba yun na hindi natin i-try na imulat ang diaw nya?
Sige po, imulat nyo po ako sa katotohanan. Facts lang po ha.
kapag may usok, may naninigarilyo.
kapag may masamang amoy, merong nasobrahan ng lamon.
at kapag nagagalit subalit paiwas kapag tinatanong, eh merong itinatagong inumit sa alkansya.
Voice from the past:
GOOD MOVE, BAD MOVE
By Ricardo Saludo (Asiaweek:1999)
What makes a good power move? Or a bad one? No, devils and angels have nothing to do with it. Power has one objective: to make things happen, whether good or evil. What things? Whatever the power wielder wants. So one test of a good power move is whether it had the effect it was supposed to have. At the start of Manila’s People Power Revolution in 1986, Asiaweek asked Ferdinand Marcos whether there would be a curfew. He promptly ordered one. But nobody paid attention – a clear failure of clout. Indeed, blatant flouting of Marcos’s word just accelerated the implosion of his authority.
Which brings us to a second criterion for power moves: Did it enhance or erode the wielder’s clout?
Ricardo Saludo is now Gloria’s Cabinet secretary

Arroyo revokes EO 464
President Arroyo revoked Wednesday Executive Order 464, which bars top government officials from testifying in legislative inquiries without express permission from the President.
“Effective immediately, I am revoking E.O. 464. Executive officials may no longer invoke E.O. 464 to excuse non-attendance from legislative inquiries. Executive officials are instructed to abide by the constitution, existing laws and jurisprudence when invited to legislative inquiries,” she said in a statement.
O yan ha. Nirevoke na ang E.O. 464.
if this is true, the senate is now free to go on a hunting spree on the executive dept.
I hope lalabas na ang katotohanang hinahanap nating lahat.
wow! para namang utang na loob pa namin yan eh matagal na namang sinabi ng korte suprema na parts of the order are unconstitutional. panalo na naman si Gloria. it would seem she gave way to the bishops’ request pero she revoked it once it was clear that SC was bent on making Neri attend (with conditions) the investigations at the senate. What can i say, she’s really one evil opportunistic bitch.
sa wakas jerz, nagkaroon din ng saysay ang sinasabi mo.
Mga kapinoy,
Hindi ang EO 464 ang dapat alisin dyan!
Alam natin dito kung sino ang dapat alisin.
Sa palagay nýo kaya libre na ang Senado sa mga imbestigasyon in aid of legislation na yan?
Bwah!ha!ha!ha!Naglolokohan patin tayo kung ganon!
May mga butas parin ang pagkakatanggal nang EO 464 na yan.
Hintayin nýo yung bagong lalabas na EO…
parin***tayo kung ganon!
E.O. 464 down; next target MC 108 and Executive Privilege.
“He is also harping that he is being recruited by a retired general but he does not want to name him!” – parasabayan
He named the retired general already (Navy) he was his former instructor. Talaga naman itong si Esperon, binenta na lahat, CO niya, ngayon na naman instructor niya…
kabayan: executive privilege is covered by the constitution. ang kelangang patunayan is the fact that what Neri has to say is not covered by Exec. Privilege.
Yes parasamasarap you are right, I guess what I meant was removing the abuses of the interpretation of Executive Privilege. Gloria often use this to declare everything that would remotely implicate her, her family, and her allies in corruption as detrimental to the state of national security. She often equates herself as the “nation”.
Another case in point, will the charges on Gen. Gudani and Col. Balutan be lifted as well (I haven’t really followed this, are there charges still)? Will there be redress of grievance since E.O. 464 was a midnight decree?
Ano nanaman itong mga pautot nitong mga ex daw na mga government officials na mga ito?
Pwedi ba huwag na tayong maglokohan???
Bakit pa ba nila bibigyan nang ultimatum ang nasa malacanang?Kaduda duda naman yan! baka nagpapataas lang sila nang presyo!!!
Kung kikilos kayo kilos na huwag na kayong manakot!!!pwe!
mainit pa: tinanggihan ng Senado ang compromise deal na iniaalok ng SC. Mabuhay ang ating mga Senador!
amen kabayan. don’t expect any redress though re. cases of Gudani and Balutan. that is, not until we kick out Gloria from MAlacanang.
truth will never be served for as long as the evil-tyanak-bitch-ingrate is in the palace
by the way, senate has rejected SC compromise proposal on neri, ibig ba sabihin hindi na sisipot si Neri on friday o sisipot parin ?? dapat galingan na nila yun script 🙂
How will the Government be able to serve the Truth when almost all the public servants are competing on who can come up with the biggest lie?
Neri used to moderate his lies and now….
Cocoy,
“Ang pagkakaalam ko lang kay Noli ay manipis ang dictionary niya at tinipid pa ang pag-iinglish.Natuturete na ang tainga ko sa lagi niyang sinasabi tuwing napapanood ko siya sa TV—I am a constitutional successor—Boring!”
Hahahahahaahahaa! Boring talaga!
At saka sabi niya ay “nobody can tell him what he has to do!” (PSB) kasi ay kahit sabihan ay tiyak na wala namang papasok sa tuktok niyang mapurol at laging walang laman!
Naku po, humihirit na naman pala dito itong si kabayang jerz… O pare (o mare), kumusta? Hinihintay ko hirit mo dun sa previous blogs re-magsumbong o humindi sa corruption. Di ka na sumagot… ang hirap talaga ano kapag pinipilit ituwid ang baluktot?
Hey Jerk, este Jerz pala,
By the words, reasoning and arguments you will know how much is the intellectual capacity or capability a person has in his coconut shell. I am not saying that you are a moron or an idiot. That’s what I want to make it clear in the first place.
When you said “The poor don’t need huge kickbacks and commissions. They’re content with the money you’re giving them to attend your rallies”, isn’t that an idiotic or a “bobo” argument? If you are given a choice between 500pesos and you have to sweat for it and a million pesos as kickbacks and commissions with no sweat, honestly, which of the two will you chooose? If you say you don’t need the millions and pick up the 500, then that’s the time that I will call you not only an idiot, a bobo but pinakatanga sa buong mundo.
naku uncvlized, naduling ako sa sinulat mo kung sisipot si neri o hindi.
akala ko, o ano neri, sisipot ka ba, o supot pa rin! hahahhahha
lintek ng mga justices ito, nag undergo ba ng training kay hilario davide at puro sipsip? walang bayag yung compromise situation na yan. ano, gray area na naman, win-win situation(kuno!).
buti na lang, hindi pinatulan ng senado.
at ito namang mga obispo na ito, siguro masaya na at sa akala nila, dininig sila ni gloria at tinanggal ang eo na yan. EO, as in envelopes opened! magkano kaya ang pinabaon sa bawat obispo na nandun sa meeting ha?
🙂 dapat nga mas gusto nya sa senado kasi nga puro lalaki naman nag tatanong duon diba.
Wala nang EO 464, e di papuntahin na sa Senado lahat ng Marines na tetestigo sa pandaraaya nung eleksiyon! Nakausap na ng mag-amang Biazon yung iba.
Ipatawag na! Dali! Baka gumawa na naman ng giyera-giyerahan si Esperon, marami na namang mapupugutan na sundalo niyan!
Pati mc108 iabolish narin. masaya na daw mga CBCP 🙂

Meron pang isa, jugz. Si MajGen Jose T. Barbieto, ka-mistah ‘nya, nilaglag din ‘nya.
Talaga daw galit! Ang sabi daw: “Sa dalawa pa lang ang estrelya dapat ay sundin ang Honesty, Integrity and Loyalty. Dapat sundin ang constitution at ang batas militar. At higit sa lahat, dapat ay ‘defend and protect the rights of the people’. Dapat ay ang sovereign will of the people ang una hindi si UNO.
Then, pag apat na ang estrelya ‘nyo, eh ano pa, pa-golf golf na lang sa Aguinaldo habang naghihintay ng gloria.”
Kawawa si Barbieto, hindi makapaghintay, isinakripisyo para lang maka-iwas sa mga issue laban sa kanya. Tamo (tignan mo)si Yano, alam ‘nya, ilang tulog na lang kaya cool and wait na lang siya. ‘Wag lang siyang matutulog sa pansitan at baka mapalusutan!
