The Sharpest Eyes

There are four types of birds with the strongest eyesight. The eagle eye is about 4-8 times stronger than that of the average human. An eagle is said to be able to spot a rabbit from a distance of 3.2 kilometers. Aside from eagle, birds such as hawks, falcons and robins have extra-ordinary vision which enable them to catch their prey easily. Though the eyesight of these birds are far stronger than the human eyes but they are no match compared to the eyes of love that only us, humans possesses. From afar we are able to spot the one we like. Sometimes, we create a perimeter wall so that no one but us can have a contact with him or her. This is a strange feeling, a reality, but hard to explain. We are so eager to have him/her and unknowingly sometimes it becomes an obsession. 

ELECTRIC WIRES AND CABLE SPAGHETTIS

NO  DOUBT, THE MANILA ELECTRIC  COMPANY (MERALCO) IS THE GIANT AND MEGA-BUCKS COMPANY WHEN IT COMES TO POWER DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS. THE MANILA ELECTRIC COMPANY  (MERALCO) POSTED A LOWER INCOME THIS YEAR ACCORDING TO THE REPORT OF  PHILSTAR GLOBAL . MERALCO CHIEF FINANCE OFFICER SAID THE COMPANY'S CORE NET INCOME DECLINED 3% FROM P10.4 BILLION IN THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2016 TO P10.1 BILLION THIS YEAR.  IN A SEPARATE NEWS FROM  THE MANILA TIMES , MERALCO'S TOP 5 EXECUTIVES GETS P92.4 MILLION EACH IN 2016.  THEREFORE, IT MEANS THAT MANILA ELECTRIC COMPANY (MERALCO) IS DOING GREAT BUSINESS AND WAS REMAIN UNCHALLENGED BY OTHER PLAYERS IN POWER DISTRIBUTION.  HOWEVER, IF YOU LOOK AT THESE PICTURES, IT SEEMS THAT MERALCO IS NOT CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE BY IGNORING SPAGHETTI ELECTRIC WIRES AND CABLES ALMOST EVERYWHERE IN THE 42 BARANGAYS OF QUEZON CITY.  WHEN ELECTRIC CONSUMPTION WAS NOT PAID ON TIME, T...

The Blooded Shoes Cries Again (updated)

Last December 5, 2011, I wrote an article on Gensan Bombing that killed 14 innocent people and injuring around 64 people. The blooded shoes of the innocent victims cried for justice. Just recently, America mourns for the victims of Mass Shooting incident in Las Vegas that killed 58 people and injuring around 489 people. The incident is the deadliest mass shooting committed by an individual in the United States. According to the Section of Washington Post : The Math of Mass Shooting, the death toll change, the places change and the faces in the memorial photos change every time, but the weapons are the common denominator. Mass Killings in the United States are most often carried out with guns, usually handguns, and most of them obtained legally. Although the Mass Shooting in Las Vegas was perpetrated by one man for unknown reason and was not linked with terrorists, but still the blooded shoes escalated in the crime scene cried for justice. Weapons of mass destruction like high caliber...

Cat-and-Mouse Game of Politics (updated)

Latest News: Bato apologizes for ingrates remarks Public apology by PNP Director General Approval rating of President Duterte tumbling down Trillanes:Filipinos Beginning to see the light Philippine Politics is like a cat-and-mouse game. They said that the "Cory Magic" was buried to the ground when President Cory Aquino died. They said, the Yellow Magic no longer exists but in contrary, the game is not yet over. The cat is unable to secure a decisive victory over the mouse, who despite not being able to defeat the cat, is able to avoid capture. Today, the Duterte administration is the cat and Vice President Leni Robredo's group is the mouse. Because of the present trust rating enjoyed by President Duterte, no way Vice President Leni's group can defeat the President. But the mouse can outsmart the arrogant cat. It is the bad habit of the cat that after the capture of his prey, he release it knowing that the prey is weak enough and cannot do any harm to ...

The Heart and Soul of the Constitution

In the introductory part of our Philippine Constitution which also known as the Preamble says; "We, the sovereign Filipino people, imploring the aid of Almighty God, in order to build a just and humane society and establish a Government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote the common good, conserve and develop our patrimony, and secure to ourselves and our posterity the blessings of independence and democracy under the rule of law and a regime of truth, justice, freedom, love, equality, and peace, do ordain and promulgate this Constitution." During my high school days, it is a must for us to memorize the Preamble of the Philippine Constitution maybe because the Educational Institution wanted to inculcate in our young minds the importance of being a good citizen of our nation whether following or leading our country. In my personal opinion, the Preamble is the Heart and Soul of the Philippine Constitution. We have so many law experts and brilliant consti...

The Change We Wanted

Change is coming! this is the magic word that put Mayor Rodrigo Roa Duterte to Presidency. People are tired of empty promises. The People's Money are sufficient enough to finance various projects and services of the government if use wisely and properly. But because of corruption, the best projects, the best education, the best health care services, the best social security services, the generation and creation of jobs, and a promise of a better life were not delivered and as a result poor Juan Dela Cruzes are still  bed-ridden in poverty. It is true that change is not easy and it must come from all of us but it will start from them. I hope the President and his trusted men that holds powerful and sensitive positions in the government will realize the "PROMISE" they made to the people. The President made mention of the erosion of people's trust and confidence in government was the real problem that confronts them. The three branches of the government nam...
