SEAG OPENING TURNS THE ENTIRE WORLD ON ITS HEAD

In the SEAG opening ceremony, We can see them building and building and building and then the presentation was just a tidal wave. We were treated to the kind of vintage performance that reminded us all of how great the Filipinos can be. And if this was a script for a Hollywood, no one would believe it as every bit of the performance was just exhilarating.

Their shot-making individual skills and flair for the dramatic, emotionally, physically, it’s a culmination of so many things, the intersection of all these different areas that make everything just so impactful that overwhelm the entire world. Every bit of the presentation was just a kind of transcendental magical thing emanating from some divine spark within ourselves. It is the moment of the greatest emotional variance. The Filipinos are great when they flow together as a unit.

PRRD did everything being the centerpiece of the wheel. Cayetano and his team of organizers make the whole thing flow and allow the entire operation to move in space and was shaped according to their preference. They had been fantastic. It’s a tougher challenge but a more gratifying one. Indeed, the event was a precursor to the many great things to come to our country with PRRD.

PRRD is the strength. He is the star and well-deserved for all the accolades that he gets and he can dominate and control everything just so the country and the Filipino people will succeed in the center stage of the world. The crowd almost elevated the building as they basked PRRD in the adulation of a President who everyone knows has gone through the toughest challenge anybody could ever endure in his career.

And I expect to see a lot more embarrassed big men and political pundits probably swelling their pants turn and walk down the other end with their heads down in shame.

MY LETTER TO THE SEAG ORGANIZERS AND THE FILIPINO ATHLETES

The SEA Games brought us tremendous twist and turns from the bizarrely contradictory entire offense of the media’s fake news running in all cylinders like a pack of stray dogs combining forces living up with their trademark as a reservoir of backwardness. You see, letting their fantasies go wild and delusional, all their thoughts are always making the Duterte government look fragile, weak and sickly as a flower eaten away by a hidden worm. But the overwhelming majority of the Filipinos fought back right at the skeptics and the detractors as they always do especially in crunch time. We are all in you together.

Your plight is breathtaking, and this is what hell feels like when the people who you believe would take a bullet for, are the ones behind the trigger. It may humble you, confuse you, or even shock you. Your experiences don’t just make it possible for us to know where the story might go; they demand that we go with it.

Nevertheless, let’s remember, creativity is born out of a tragedy that is felt by many and all around us. If you can say anything you can be anything you want. You can find your power and freedom saying out loud, I am a Filipino and I am proud. Yes, you must be scared about your future. You know the truth, you know the reality.

It takes patience and composure which you had both. Open your creative mind; get them to think outside the box. Man, we have to push it, we have to find it, it’s in there, it’s somewhere here, and you didn’t know you have it all in you. Bring yourself to the truth and you will be set free. Follow your own path and take responsibility whatever is thrown at you.

But when all is said and done, where the spotlights beam its brightest, something magical will happen and we all bear witness to the championship gods rewarding incredible perseverance and teamwork. GOOD LUCK BROTHER, WE CARE ABOUT YOU.

TRAITORS, TRAITORS, A WHOLE BUNCH OF TRAITORS

Long years of preparations by the Duterte administration, crawling on their bellies, burning their skin, and the heat sucking the life out of them. Despite all these, the opposition, mouthpiece by the media, the whole bunch of them, they all spread the news that the hosting of the SEA games by the Philippines is a dismal and an epic sense of failure, even before the games had never yet started. 

I’m tired and frustrated. I know the Duterte government wanted to bring a positive impact to the world by having the SEAN games in the country. But the entire media are broadcasting destructive fake news with all manner of scenarios that ran to the reporter’s mind. I really feel for all the people who really showed how hard, how phenomenally hard they work for beautiful results.

But there was nothing they could say to stop PRRD but to give our country a sense of pride. It’s not how the opposition and the whole bunch of the media started to undermine and destroy what the government really work hard for, it’s about how we go forward. PRRD opened the door to a sea of silent faces with all eyes on the nation and all together we pulled ourselves up straight and tall and look the detractors and the destabilizers right in the eyes.

I say this to PRRD, no matter what anybody says about you, no matter what anybody in the media ever says about you, when you’re using positive energy, only you know what you’re truly capable of. People can talk and there will always be outside noise. It’s up to you to make the best out of a bad situation.

Not every day has to be negative. Just because these media people are one-sided against the government and shooting in all directions at it doesn’t mean we the open-minded can’t put a smile on our faces. Greatness exudes itself in a lot of ways. Your presence is the best present. It’s not how we start; it’s about how we go forward. Things change they don’t stay hard forever.

The question is, are we going to make the SEA games a cornerstone of our identity? And it seems like that’s the culture that the Duterte government is creating.

My plea to the traitors, let’s not color outside the line here. This isn’t the only incident that the opposition and the media are attacking the Duterte government. All the time when PRRD has done great things for the country, they just simply assaulted him with twisted narratives in such a way that they’d swear the assault insulted his families. Whenever he has been in the news on TV channels, it had never been for anything good. TRAITORS, TRAITORS, A WHOLE BUNCH OF TRAITORS.

VP ROBREDO HAS NEVER BEEN FOR ANYTHING GOOD

ROBREDO TO DUTERTE: “JUST TELL ME TO LEAVE.” That’s going to be the biggest stylistic boilerplate statement of VP Robredo that shows a lack of moral restraint.

Robredo to be a part of Duterte’s administration can seem like an oxymoron, which means incongruous or contradictory. But it would seem that everything ended for Robredo as Drug Czar before it started. VP Robredo, you disgrace your Post; if you had one shred of decency in you, you should not wait for the President to tell you to leave. You have nowhere to go but relinquish it and drove down the trail of tears back to an emptier and lonelier house. You are not worth the chair that you’re sitting on. Every time I see you on TV, It makes me want to puke.

Robredo is a very dangerous person. When we go behind the headlines about her progression upon her assumption as the “Drug Czar”, and peel away the psychological layers therefrom, her behavior begins to raise eyebrows, if not, suspicions. Her own wild and impulsive nature hadn’t diminished her appetite for total dependency from foreign countries to solve our drug problem; and that by doing so, allowing them to meddle into the State affairs of the country.

Of course, this is beyond mere incompetence but a stupid effort which has never looked more deadly. Because dealing with America and European countries will always find you at the shortest end of the stick. If I need to say more, her dependency from foreign countries would only endanger the nation from the corrosive and destructive influence of imperialism. No, that’s not gonna happen. We have to STOP this woman before she, in trademark style, will drive us all crazy.

The 60 dollar question for PRRD is, are you still inclined to trust VP Robredo? Are you still inclined to extend her sphere of activity? Consistently she is using her charms well on TV, and she believed the media that they’re going to take her to the top of the ladder through exposure every day on TV.

But media hype did not excite the Filipinos. In fact, it left a bad taste in most people’s mouths as you could imagine. You need not only walk your walk and your talk but carry immense burdens to stir people up to make a difference.

Let me say this to VP Robredo, at the bottom, all your dysfunctional behaviors are finally revealed. Playing out under the denial radar and you’re doomed to succumb to a harder fall down the track until the bubble bursts. You cleverly delude yourself into thinking everything is juuuuust great—and your life ends up being built on a big, fat lie and a false foundation.

SEN. FRANKLIN DRILON APOLOGIZES FOR HIS OWN ALLEGED STUPIDITY

Sen. Drilon’s arrogance and obsession to look for trail and find a way to cast aspersion at President Duterte in order to create a mass hysteria whipped up a story that the late National artist Architect Francisco Mañosa who designed the 50 Million Cauldron was, in fact, the father-in-law of DCDA’s Sec. Vince Dison. Now, Sen. Drilon had to apologize for his sci-fi dystopia, a type of speculative fiction. Sen. Drilon’s penchant to focus on the dark side of Pres. Duterte has caused him to be hoisted by his own petard.

How unfortunate it is that Sen. Drilon had to learn his lesson the hard way, but what a great blessing comes when there is the realization that there is no darkness that can conceal the truth that the DU30 administration does. Sen. Drilon cannot be in violation and feel good about that conduct.

Society cannot tolerate the despicable deeds of Sen. Drilon, and for this, he deserves to be cashiered to the deepest recesses of the dungeons where he can grind and gnash his teeth till kingdom come.

WE MUST THINK BEFORE WE ACT.

EX-PRESIDENT PNOY AQUINO lll STOP… TALKING

Ex-President Benigno Pnoy Aquino lll who pretends to be this paragon of the green virtues, wants to enter into scuffle saying, “he could have built a cheaper SEA Games Cauldron”. But when this ex-president sneers now about anything against the Duterte administration, it is always hollow rhetoric and hypocrisy. Look your face in the mirror ex-president and see the irony of what you’re saying.

Knowing you as the worst president in Philippine history, I would believe in Duterte who chose to save people on the basis of the totality of their lives and not the pattern of the words of ‘Tuwid na daan’ that left us blinded, divided, and turn every Filipino into a ruin.

While Duterte has done too many great things and regains that unique sense of destiny and optimism in us. But you Benigno Pnoy Aquino lll, you have killed more dreams than failure ever did. You wear many disguises and like a virus, you always want to keep the darkness and tear us apart unperturbed to suck us dry and drag us down to eternity.

There is also an artificial aristocracy within this ex-president founded on wealth and birth, without either virtue or talents. The artificial aristocracy is a mischievous ingredient in government, and provisions should be made to prevent its ascendancy.

SEN. DRILON HAS STIRRED UP THE HORNET'S NEST

The intensified rhetoric by Sen. Franklin "Rip Van Winkle" Drilon about the alleged ‘Extravagance’ in the P55-M cauldron for SEA Games, is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Or is it just an empty boast?

I find Sen. Drilon’s criticisms of the SEAN project and his skepticism not only totally unfounded but also tastelessly disdainful.

But why did Sen. Drilon not carry his rage in the 140 Million Pnoy Aquino PNR Toilet project; 7.8 Million Flag pole rehabilitation; and the glaring substandard housing for Yolanda victims costing 60 billion pesos. Typhoon victims who were supposed to occupy the units have complained of the poorly-constructed houses, saying most are shaky, have no power lines, and have inefficient sewage systems.

Additionally, Sen. Drilon was involved in the overpriced anomaly of 450 million pesos for the Iloilo Convention Center, which was taken from his priority development assistance fund (PDAF).

Indeed, if you sit down and wrote a list of all kinds of corruption in the previous Pnoy administration, you’re gonna explode because it is endless.

On the alleged extravagance of this new edifice for the SEA Games, this is a matter of who is saying it. But when it’s all said and done, it is our country’s only opportunity to make our first mark on the world. It is something that our country will take pride in because of its very unique design that is indeed a testament of our high regard for our rich culture and ingenuity. It will boost our country’s capability to host the SEA and/or world Olympic Games and competitions.

The Duterte administration, as we all know, has lead our country into a bright and promising, an achiever and yet extraordinarily what is most striking about PRRD is his heart, his commitment to making people’s lives better. His abiding belief that the same opportunities that one child had should be extended to every child. Not only did PRRD says he’s gonna fight for us, it wasn’t idle chatter.

Finally, in watching the President’s men and women working hand in hand and implementing PRRD’s order, I learned that nobody has the history, the legacy, the traditions, or the pride that comes from being one serving the best President the Filipinos have ever had. I am envious beyond words.
