TO THE BATANGEÑOS

The world looks at Batangas as a place where the sentiment of the inhabitants is a disappointment, regret, and frustration. What most people don’t realize is that a new era has dawned.

Batangas Province is entering an age of advancement and from the void left by the devastation of the Taal Volcano Eruption, a new era will emerge. Remember, rejection is as natural as the sun rising. But the dream God wants you to do will keep you going because that is yours and has been woven for God’s purpose.

To my Batangeño brothers and sisters, take advantage of the confusion, as they say, where there is uncertainty, there is an opportunity; and that "It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure."

Batangas will never be the same again. The rain begins with a single drop, then, comes a rising tide that will lift all boats.

TO MY XUHS BATCH ’68-- YES IT IS TRUE TO EVERYONE

In the morning of our lives, young are our hearts and faces. But as our age rolled like the wind we are now covered with lines and creases. I cried with my tears flowing like a river and only with just emotion that's taken me over.

Youth is not eternal. But time is relentless and for everyone, there comes a moment when you will become old. Some can see while others only realize this through painful acceptance. There is a limit for everything and your looks, shape, and form have now faded over the years.

It was sad to see yourself in that state. You try to overcome time but you just know in your heart that you are not as vibrant, handsome, and young anymore. But you should not worry because in the great scheme of things, around you remained an aura of a man capable of challenging times and you’re being aged did nothing to damage and defeat your aura; and that who once upon a time you masterly dealt with every challenge you faced.

XUHS Batch-68- As We have gone to different paths and leaned to our memories as it was all that was left. We have a different moment in time now, but the context of each of us whom we had fun together, and admire and respected are still the same. And as we see each other again everything turned to laughter and our hearts sing.

PROFITEERS AND THIEVES IN TIMES OF DISASTER

Whoever you are, you who are hearing me now, I am speaking to the profiteers and the thieves who are taking advantage of the “Taal Volcano Eruption”. These profiteers are selling the surgical mask at exorbitant prices to people who are already suffering from the Taal volcano eruption.

These profiteers had no scruples and they are rubbing salt on the wounds of the victims without regard their already grim existence has now gotten a lot worse. The situation rings alarm bells to the government. Yes, the victims would have no choice but to buy the mask because they needed them desperately. On the other hand, the profiteers are happy because they pulled a fast one out of the situation.

The profiteers might be overwhelmed with their big profit margin. But they failed to consider what if the shoe was on the other foot; that the circumstances have reversed and they are now the ones being taken advantaged of? What would they feel? They better make more use of the analogous thinking based on an extension of the Golden Rule. This goes also to the thieves who stole anything of value from the abandoned houses.

It is the mind that is the root of all human knowledge and values — and its absence is the root of all evil. Reason is needed by all of us at all times. All of the heroes are thinkers: they demonstrate an ongoing commitment to understanding their work, themselves and the world around them. They choose their goals and values by a process of thought, never putting their desires above their code of ethics linked in their culture, their profession, their religion.

The villains, on the other hand, are those who defy reason and evade the code of ethics, acting on what’s left: their feelings. As a result, they are in constant conflict with reality and achieve nothing. This is what leads one to the conclusion that thinking is the basic virtue life requires, and that the anti-mind is the anti-life.

THE 3 TV NETWORKS THAT DIGNIFY THE PATHOLOGICAL LIARS

The news that Atty. Jude Sabio is going to withdraw the case he filed with the ICC (International Criminal Court) against PRRD came out 3 days ago at Facebook. Atty. Sabio admitted the subject case against PRRD, which was for Crimes Against Humanity, was part of the illegal variety scheme Trillanes, Leila Delima and their Yellow Pnoy party had designed to catch fire that would achieve their purpose to destabilize the Du30 government.

But the bizarre and cringe-worthy situation is the confession of Atty. Sabio that the case was just a Trump Up charges by the political enemies of PRRD. This bomb the Yellows had dropped, was among the many. But it seems that what many have expected to be so bright has doomed together with the other bombs with the confession of Atty. Sabio that have thrown their ball into the ocean.

But did you hear this good news about Atty. Sabio’s confession? Of course not! Every news about PDU30 is all inflammatory, vitriolic, all smoke and mirrors to dehumanize him. Whereas, on the side of the detractors, what the TV networks always show are all ‘high bars’ for them.

These TV Networks who allowed themselves to be used by the detractors of PDU30 are part of the detractors and destabilizers that ruined our country during the Pnoy administration. We can’t be naïve about them. No one could deny about their onslaught of brisk (marked by much activity) that the Yellows tossed up at PRRD over and over to the tune of 5 straight shots.

The first was Edgar Matobato who testified on September 15, 2016 before the Senate hearing to the effect PRRD was the mastermind of the EJK, but he was also rebuffed by Atty. Abeto A. Salcedo, Jr. who identified him as the one who ambushed and riddled him with 8 bullets in Digos City on October 23, 2014. Followed by Lascañas; Acierto; Atty. Sabio for crimes against humanity before the ICC; and the ‘Bikoy Videos’ whose real name is Peter Advincula. The Yellows paid these people just to lie. Sad but true! But they were rebuffed as often as they tried.

The Yellows multiple executions to oust PRRD were the epitome of the kind of world they want the Filipinos to live with. They represented violence, murder, insanity in its purest form.

  

WARNING TO AYALA AND PANGILINAN

As the light of dawn always comes right after the deepest darkness, one glorious day we will reign and get back everything Ayala and Pangilinan got. That glorious day has arrived. A new Water Concession Contract has been prepared by the government minus the onerous provisions in the old contract. Ayala and Pangilinan will decide whether to accept or reject the new contract.

My prediction is that Ayala and Pangilinan will reject the new contract. For them, the new contract cannot be the intended meaning of their heart in an absolute sense, since it is an impossible instruction to uphold. It is the lack of respect and ignoble regard for the law by Ayala and Pangilinan that drives their insatiable greed for money.

Ayala and Pangilinan have begun to live with utmost benefit and advantage in the old contract, so they must never try to live any other way. They bow and vow to bind themselves together for life and death that everything in turquoise green, greener than the deepest sea they had widely scooped over time, manifesting their bestial taste, must never fly away.

With the predictable refusal of Ayala and Pangilinan to accept the new Water Concession Contract, they are herding the patience of PRRD to the boiling point. REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE.

In the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, God told Lot and his family “Escape for your life! DO NOT LOOK BEHIND YOU or you will also be destroyed.” (Genesis 19:17). Lot’s wife made a fatal decision and looked back, thus, she turned into a pillar of salt.

Ayala and Pangilinan could be a classic example of Lot’s wife. If they will turn back to the old Water Concession Contract, they will be turned into a pillar of salt.

ROBREDO’S REPORT IS FAKE NEWS

VP Leni Robredo pulled again a Judas on PRRD, the PNP, and the PDEA by doing twisted narrative intended to sow destruction and chaos. Robredo says the government anti-Drug war is a failure. The de facto VP Robredo, in trademark style where the spotlights are beaming, alleged, around 3,000 kilos of shabu is consumed in the country every week or around 156,000 kilos per year. The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency showed it only seized 1,344 kilos of shabu from January to October 2019; 785 kilos in 2018; and 1,053 kilos in 2017, she said.

Robredo added that according to a police estimate, around P1.3 trillion worth of shabu circulates in the country every year. However, law enforcement only apprehended P1.4 billion worth of drugs. She said it is very clear that based on official data, despite the deaths of Filipinos and the money spent, the confiscated shabu supply and drug money was below 1 percent.

Robredo’s report is full of short circuits. Like the antiquated wiring in an old house, the details sputter and burn out when specific parts are tested.

With only 18 days as co-chair of the Inter-agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs (ICAD), Robredo just piece out the information she wanted and then made a twisted narrative just to make a case. Of course, her report is beyond mere incompetence but a stupid effort which has never looked more deadly. Robredo as she has always been known wears many disguises and like a virus, she always wants to keep the darkness and tear the country apart.

So, what’s new with Robredo? Her report is just fake news; it surely is designed entirely to provoke a reaction. There were many examples of Robredo where she has not made the most honest and correct assumption and conclusion. We must not forget that in her subject report, it delves with figures involving hundreds of thousands of kilos of shabu. How can we rely on her assessment and conclusion when even 40x4 her answer is 1,600.

In different areas of human activity and endeavor, bias and corruption take place. Indeed, every minute, every second, the Yellows and their lackeys will creep in range inch by inch toward our grave of disaster. Only PRRD can stop them.

2020 NUMBER IS A WARNING YOU MUST BE PREPARED WHAT IS COMING

For many years, the Filipinos never witnessed so vulgar, open, and fearless display of such concerted action of destabilization as during the time of PRRD’s presidency. PRRD who like the lion for many years has been the symbol of strength and power, but ironically, he is now under relentless attack by his enemies in the ugly unforgettable political panorama of power grab in our country. With the active part of groups from different sectors acting in unstoppable juggernaut like famished hyaenas, they are all determined not to leave PRRD and the Filipinos peacefully.

The 87% Filipinos who supported PRRD are teary exhausted waiting for him to do drastic measures to stop these demons to continue their routine to ablaze the country with their trail of evil cons to break his spirit or kill him through exhaustion. There is no other way to stop this evil other than throw gas on their fire. If WE would still remain passive, our country will become a place where life and death cross each other somewhere every day.
