Boon and baneAng mga disgrasya na nadudulot ng “Facebook” at “Twitter” ay nagpapa-alala sa atin na ang mga kabutihan na nabibigay nitong mga social networks ay may kaakibat ding panganib.
Maraming kabutihan na nabibigay ang social networks lalo pa sa panahon ngayon na maraming pamilya na magkakalayo.
Ordinary na ngayon sa bawat pamilya na may mienbro na nasa abroad at sa pamamagitan ng Facebook at Twitter, naiibsan ang distansya. Sa pamamagitan ng internet, parang hindi rin magkakalayao. Makakapabalitaan araw-araw.
Ngunit dahil sa demokrasya sa mga social networks na ito, madali mawala ang privacy kung hindi marunong mag-ingat o kung mahilig magbibida tungkol sa sarili.
In keeping with the President’s longstanding position that the cause of justice and sustained reforms in ARMM require live coverage of the Maguindanao Massacre Trial, Secretary Herminio Coloma of the PCOO has instructed NBN4 to undertake a gavel-to-gavel coverage of the trial.
We should never forget this.Binabawi ko na ang aking palakpak sa desisyun ng Supreme Court na pinapayagan ang TV na magkaroon ng live broadcast ng trial ng Maguindanao masaker.
Sa dami ng kundisyunes na binigay ng Supreme Court para makapag-cover ng live ang TV, Malabo na rin mangyayari.
Ayun sa desisyun na sinulat ni Justice Conchita Carpio-Morales na sinang-ayunan naman ng lahat na justices, isang TV camera lang ang papayagan sa loob ng korte kung saan doon kukuha na ng “feed” ang ibang TV networks.
Walang problema sa kundisyun na ito. Nagawa na ito sa ibang kaso katulad ng kay dating Pangulong Joseph Estrada.
Last week, the talk show, “ANC Presents” hosted by Lynda Jumilla discussed President Aquino’s choice of people to help him govern the country. She invited…
PH also deployed largest patrol ship to Spratlys area on a ‘routine patrol’ -ABS-CBN
The two 'forces' behind the JMSU that sold out PH sovereignty to China.You just have to give credit to former House Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr for never giving up on an idea which he thinks is bright, no matter how disadvantageous it is to the Filipino people.
In the midst of rising tension between the Philippines and China over the former’s series of armed intrusions on West Philippine Sea the past five months, he urged President Aquino Wednesday to revive, the Joint Marine Seismic Undertaking.
The brainchild of De Venecia, the JMSU which was signed in March 2005, opened the exploration of large portion of West Philippine Sea jointly with initially China and later on, with Vietnam. The first phase which ended in 2007 was to find out the amount of oil and other mineral resources in that area. The second phase didn’t push through because of questions of the constitutionality of the tripartite agreement.
The Philippine Constitution provides that”The exploration, development, and utilization of natural resources shall be under the full control and supervision of the State.”
First it was Deputy Ombudsman Emilio Gonzales who was fired. Then Deputy Ombudsman Luzon Mark Jalandoni, who resigned. Then Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez who also resigned. Now, Wendell Barreras-Sulit suspended.
SulitSpecial Prosecutor Wendell Barreras-Sulit has been charged by Malacañang with graft and betrayal of public trust and suspended for 90 days in connection with the plea bargain agreement the Ombudsman forged with former military comptroller Maj. Gen. (ret.) Carlos Garcia who was accused of amassing some P303 million while in the service.
A two-page formal charge sheet signed by Executive Secretary Paquito Ochoa Jr. Tuesday said the three-month preventive suspension aims to ensure there will be no tampering with evidence and interference in the investigation.
He said the suspension would start upon Sulit’s receipt of the formal notice.
Sulit could not be reached for comment. But according to sources, she received the suspension order yesterday.
The sources said Sulit scribbled a marginal note on the order, which read, “received under protest subject to outcome of my petition in the Supreme Court and in view of the pendency thereof.”
She signed the order, signifying she was properly served.
The current word war between the Philippines and China is another proof of the continuing curse of Gloria Arroyo on the Filipino people.
The latest series of diplomatic protests lodged by the Philippines with China and submitted also to the United Nations have its roots to the controversial Joint Marine Seismic Undertaking entered into by the Arroyo government with China in 2005 which allowed China and later on Vietnam to explore not only the Philippine-occupied islands in the disputed mineral-rich Spratlys but areas that are clearly Philippine territory.
The JMSU was initialed during Gloria Arroyo’s 2004 visit to China which paved the way for the signing of at least two graft-riddled deals : North Rail and national broadband network with ZTE agreements.
Thanks to Blogwatch for this photo.Noong administrasyun ni Gloria Arroyo, sobra ang lakas ng West Cove na kahit garapalan nang lumalabag ng batas at regulasyun sa Boracay, pinapayagan.
Sana totohanin ng munisipalidad ng Malay sa pamumuno ng mayor na si John Yap na ipasara ang West Cove. Dapat lang. Dapat nga gibain na yun dahil unang-una, bawal tayuan ng istruktura ang corals na iyon ang kinatatayuan ng resort.
Hindi pa nakuntento sa pagtayo sa bawal, nagpa-extend pa ng parang helipad at mga cabana sa dagat.
Grabeng pambabastos at paglabag ng batas ang ginawa ng West Cove sa Boracay.
Look what I found one day last February when I went home to our barrio in Guisijan, Laua-an, Antique.
I found this stove being sold for P150 by a barriomate in front of his house. He said he is the one making it. This is how it is when you use wood for fuel which they do in the province.
Carpio-MoralesSang-ayon ako sa sinabi ni Atty. Harry Roque na dahil sa oposisyun ni Gloria Arroyo, ang kinatawan ngayon ng pangalawang distrito ng Pampanga, sa nominasyun ni Supreme Court Justice Conchita Carpio-Morales dapat lang siya na talaga ang gagawing Ombudsman.Why is she afraid of Carpio-Morales as Ombudsman?
Sabi ni Roque, para kay Arroyo ang napatunayang independence na pinakita ni Justice Carpio-Morales sa mga desisyun sa Supreme Court kung saan nannindigan siya kung saan ang akala niyang tama na palagi ay kabaliktaran nang siya ang naka-upo sa Malacañang.
Ang gusto ni Arroyo, sabi ni Roque, ay ang sunod-sunoran sa kanya katulad ni Merceditas Gutierrez.
Sabi ni Roque tinanggihan niya ang plano ng ibang grupo na i-nominate siya para Ombudsman dahil suportado niya si Carpio-Morales.
Halatang ninenerbyus na si Arroyo ngayon na wala na si Gutierrez sa Ombudsman.
