			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Idol by every sports enthusiasts in the world because of his power punch fist but doubted by athlete’s analyst regarding the issue of the power vitamins he take and criticized sharply by his boxing opposing Mayweather for using illegal athlete’s drugs, as well as his critics and detractors because of his dubious winning streaks.</p>
<p>Previously then, he was mocked by some Filipinos in the Philippines regarding his stand on the “Reproductive Health Bill” or “RH Bill” issue showing his own stupidity basing his own opinion regarding the “Reproductive Health Bill” or “RH Bill” issue on bible verses alone; now another power punch has sit him right on his face.</p>
<p>His homophobic, heartless and idiot remarks regarding homosexuals and same sex marriage that they must be “put to death” because the Bible says so has spill the fresh hot soup of beans right in front of his own cold face which lead the homosexual community around the world to boycott him and make an online petition not to support him and drop him as endorser of Nike wherein the employees on the Nike company are mostly gays.</p>
<p>Here are his remarks that incensed the gay community:</p>
<p>He quoted a Biblical verse following Barack Obama’s announcement of support for same-sex marriage that according to him homosexuals should be put to death : ““God’s words first … obey God’s law first before considering the laws of man…. should not be of the same sex so as to adulterate the altar of matrimony, like in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah of Old…..’.. If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads,’..”</p>
<p>Meanwhile here the statements of others who were dismayed by Manny Pacquioa’s remarks:</p>
<p>&#8220;Nike is a multi-billion dollar industry and [Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender] people contribute billions to this company. It is completely unacceptable that such a high-profile company should be sponsoring a boxer who is encouraging violence towards LGBT people. Tell Nike to drop its sponsorship..”</p>
<p>&#8220;No one who is a public figure, and or, a role model to people, especially children, can be allowed to call for the death of others. I am saddened by his closed-mindedness, but am horrified if Nike keeps him on as a spokesperson after such a violent comment, and violent view point,&#8221;</p>
<p>“…This is abominable! Probably a closet-case himself! SIGNED AND SHARED!!!</p>
<p>“…I&#8217;m honored to have the first signature. Nike should be ashamed for sponsoring such an intolerant, dimwitted, and frankly closed-minded individual. Obviously Manny has been hit in the head one to many times in the ring..”</p>
<p>“…..As a Filipino and as a mother, I am deeply disappointed and outraged at Manny&#8217;s inexcusable comments. Freedom of speech also comes with the sense to be responsible for your words, to think before you speak. Considering how many look up to him, many of them children, there is no excuse for this. Nike should not sponsor someone with this kind of hatred and ignorance towards others…” </p>
<p>“….I am 14 out of the closet bisexual..<br />
This guy was my hero..<br />
hearing this legit killed me oh well! <img src='http://thephilippines.ph/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> ….”</p>
<p>“..Signed and spread all across facebook , this is ridiculous.. Perhaps big mouthed bigots should be put to death!..”</p>
<p>“Based on news reports of statements made by Mr. Pacquiao we have made it be known that he is not welcome at The Grove and will not be interviewed here now or in the future. The Grove is a gathering place for all Angelenos and not a place for intolerance.”</p>
<p>“..Although he doesn&#8217;t explicitly say it, Pac does cite Leviticus&#8211;implicitly suggesting gays should be put to death…”</p>
<p>“..Stand with millions of LGBT and fair minded-people the world over. Drop Manny Pacquiao now. Hatred surely does not = Nike..”</p>
<p>And other comments of people regarding Manny Pacquioa’s remarks regarding same-sex marriage.</p>
<p>Although he denied quoting the Leviticus book of the Bible wherein the hatred toward homosexuals is written, he cannot deny that his statements already says it so; how IDIOT he is!</p>
<p>However, lately he apologizes but still sarcastic and offensive of his opinions regarding gays and same-sex marriage, “…I&#8217;m not against gay people&#8230; We can&#8217;t help it if they were born that way. What I&#8217;m critical off (sic) are actions that violate the word of God. I only gave out my opinion that same sex marriage is against the law of God…”</p>
<p>Thus, he indeed from his heart Hate Homosexuals because “the Bible says so..”; how stupid but that is his belief anyway.</p>
<p>Anyway ,here is the petition letter:<br />
“…<br />
End Sponsorship of Homophobic Boxer Manny Pacquiao</p>
<p>NIKE: SAY NO to HATE SPEECH</p>
<p>Boxer Manny Pacquiao (based in LA) has been sponsored by Nike since 2008. Following Obama&#8217;s recent announcement of support for marriage equality, Pacquiao quoted bible excerpts to state that homosexuals should be put to death :</p>
<p>If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.</p>
<p>Nike is a multi-billion dollar industry and LGBT people contribute billions to this company. It is completely unacceptable that such a high-profile company should be sponsoring a boxer who is encouraging violence towards LGBT people. Tell Nike to drop its sponsorship!<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>Sincerely,<br />
[Your name]<br />
4,000 Signatures Reached! | May 16, 2012 …..”</p>
<p>Consequently, though he may apologize, Manny can no longer bring back the trust of gay community abroad and forever banned on their respective business despite recent reports that his boxing career is still intact and unaffected; that is so because business-minded people wants more profit to profit from him and obviously covering up Manny Pacquioa’s mistake or indeed not mistake at all for he mean it by his heart that homosexuals are not acceptable in the community and must be “put to death” ,”…. like in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah of Old…” because the “Christian God” says it so and because it is written in the Bible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If Metro Manila Philippines have annual film festival so called “Metro Manila Film Festival(MMFF)” during the Christmas period, likewise also, Olongapo city Philippines is planning to have its own too ,but not yet clear if it is during Christmas season or just part of the “fiesta” in Olongapo city via Cinemalaya Foundation Inc. collaboration.</p>
<p>For recently, the Cinemalaya Foundation Inc. have invaded Olongapo city and held a film festival last November 26-30,this year 2011entitled “Cinemalaya Sa Gapo” at the Olongapo City Convention Center wherein the government officials of Olongapo city were inspired to have their own film festival which they will entitled “SineGapo Film Festival”, since according to them, the recent film festival brought by Cinemalaya to them have somewhat connection to their  vision for  Olongapo city and according to Olongapo city Mayor James “Bong’ Gordon jr., their city is a best place to build film production studios that is similar to Universal Studios in California for the city’s forest hubs, seaport, airport, bays and the Subic Bay Freeport Zone says it could be. Moreover, having a film festival will benefit more the city’s tourism industry. As Olongapo city councilor De los Reyes said:</p>
<p>“We see Cinemalaya as one of the more appropriate avenues to carry out our vision. We have begun our efforts in encouraging and exposing Olongapenos to the arts, particularly by sending a delegation during the opening of the recent Cinemalaya Film Festival at the Cultural Center of the Philippines, “</p>
<p>But actually, it was the Olongapo councilor Bugsy De la Torre who brought or do the initiative to bring the Cinemalaya on their city as part of their fiesta events being him as the fiesta executive committee chairman. For the purpose why he brought the Cinemalaya on their city because according to him, he or the local government of Olongapo city wants to discover and support young filmmakers that could arise and could be in their city thus, he  wants to have a collaboration of the city with Cinemalaya Foundation, Inc. and will eventually create their annual film festival entitled “SineGapo Film Festival” similar to Metro Manila Film Festival but their own film festival is different compare to Metro Manila Film festival because theirs are from Cinemalaya rather than from the mainstream film studios.</p>
<p>As Olongapo city councilor Edic Piano says,being a vice chairman of the fiesta committee:</p>
<p>“We hope to screen Cinemalaya films yearly..The plan is to eventually make our own films and create what we would call a ‘SineGapo Film Festival’”</p>
<p>The Cinemalaya Foundation Inc, have no any hesitations regarding the plan collaboration since it is the aim of the foundation to bring their films on the regions of the Philippines. As Cinemalaya Festival Director Nestor O. Jardin says “</p>
<p>“The CCP and Cinemalaya Foundation have always worked together in the past to bring Cinemalaya to the regions.  This is part of our outreach program aimed at promoting Philippine independent cinema to as many Filipinos as possible by showcasing films that speak of the unique Philippine culture, experience and values which one would not normally see in the mainstream cinema.  We therefore look at this project as educational in thrust.”</p>
<p>Cinemalaya Foundation Inc. is a non-stock, non-profit or according to them no-for-profit and non-government foundation that is dedicated and committed on the development and promotion of Philippine Independent Film that held annual film competition and festival by Filipino independent film makers which aims “…to encourage the creation of new cinematic works by Filipino filmmakers – works that boldly articulate and freely interpret the Filipino experience with fresh insight and artistic integrity. It also aims to invigorate the Philippine filmmaking by developing a new breed of Filipino filmmakers….”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems the Aquino government is greedy in collecting money from the Filipino mass and now want to tax the voluntary contributions of the self-employed worker and own- account workers like vendors, migrant workers and jeepney drivers in their SSS, GSIS, Pag-IBIG and PhilHealth account without giving back the collected funds to the public by building public infrastructures that will help the Filipino mass in reciprocation to what was taken away from their salaries or wages. For up until now, the Aquino administration have not show any proof of its own projects whose funds comes from the government revenues it has collected, especially funds collected by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).For some government projects that yields economic returns lately are the fruits of the hard work and investment of the past Arroyo administration wherein Noynoy have grab credits as its own projects of its administration. For the Aquino administration has been known to be under spending the government funds they have collected but spending it or disbursing it instead on something that doesn’t help and reciprocates the hard works of every Filipinos like giving funds to the enemies of the Republic (MILF and ABB) and setting up showbiz oriented concepts like setting up facebook account, own youtube channel and now own TV show (??)</p>
<p>Now, the Aquino government proposal to impose taxes on voluntary contributions to social security systems, health systems and related others through Memorandum Circular No. 53- 2011 issued by the Bureau of Internal Revenue(BIR),stating that the voluntary contributions to the SSS, GSIS, Pag-IBIG and PhilHealth are subject to government tax have gain criticism from Congresswoman Luz Ilagan saying that to impose taxes on voluntary contributions is wrong because the so-called self-employed worker and own- account workers like vendors, migrant workers and jeepney drivers could barely manage to save for their retirement or for emergencies and imposing tax to their extra hard earned money will add more to their financial poverty and could contribute more to growing poverty rate in the Philippines.</p>
<p>“These are hard earned savings that come from working extra hours, taking more hazardous jobs and belt tightening by scrimping on the family budget. There is no way that the Philippine government can justify the taxes being imposed on the informal sector as it consistently cuts back on spending for social services,”..She said.</p>
<p>The congresswoman also cited the cuts on 2011 National Budget of the Aquino government for education, health and housing reflects Noynoy camp’s deprivation of government services especially to the poor Filipinos.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Amidst of the political profligacy happening in the Philippines which only leads the entire Filipino race into a vindictive and licentious culture, creeping preternatural phenomena take place which some Filipinos would not bother to think about but too much preoccupation of feasting on political witch-hunting against a former leader of their country have made their psychic  minds stupor about the omens in regards to what is happening now in the Philippines, as the consequences of their profligacy on political hypocrisy rather than polarizing the spiritual future of their race; for they themselves devour one another.</p>
<p>These preternatural events are the back to back crimes and suicides that have distinctive similar themes that reflect a perturbed race aside from political crises and human rights violation which happens since the reign of late former Philippine president Corazon Aquino.<br />
Here are the latest back to back events which I noticed that has the same theme.</p>
<p>1. The Ramgen Revilla murder back to back with Ricky Pempengco’s murder. Both murdered victims are family members of a famous celebrity in the Philippines, Senator and actor Ramon Bong Revilla and the young international singing sensation Charice Pempengco , respectively. Both murders are caused by a fight on something; both were stabbed.</p>
<p>2. Back to Back Suicides. Earlier before the back to back murder of Ramgen Revilla and Ricky Pempengco is the back to back suicide incidents of two broken hearted or depressed Filipino men who jump their way to death on a commercial establishment on the upper story of the commercial building.</p>
<p>First, act October 20,2011,an anonymous guy jump on his suicide death on the mall of Robinson at Imus Cavite, then days after ,the 20 year old grandson of former vice-President of the Philippines Teofisto Guingona Jr., jump his way into his suicide death from the open-viewing deck of SkyLounge bar and restaurant establishment. The young man was said to be broken hearted and depressed and could not bear at his young age the pain incurred by depression, thus he commit suicide by jumping from the open deck of SkyLounge to end the misery he is experiencing during those moments.</p>
<p>Both are male; both are said to be depressed and broken-hearted and both jump to suicide death from an upper story of a commercial establishment, both suicidal incident were not made sensational in the media.</p>
<p>3. Back To Back Shooting Incidents inside a Mall. Who can forget the back to back shooting events on two SM malls perpetrated by crimes of love. Both suspect are somewhat erstwhile partner that wants their former partner together with them in death. Both successfully enter a gun secretly from the security officers on the entrance of the mall. The straight erstwhile couple on SM North Edsa are said to be from Pampanga while the gay erstwhile couple where in SM Pampanga where the shooting incident happens. Both fatalities are male ones. Both happen inside the SM Malls.</p>
<p>4. The Back To Back Carjacking incidents. There are many carjacking incidents but who can forget the almost same theme of Emerson Lozano-Venson Evangelista carjacking murder case were both are killed by gunshot and burned.</p>
<p>What I listed above are just handful cases of a back to back crimes that happens recently in the Philippines there are crimes and incidents in the past which have a similar back to back theme, like the back to back bus tragedies, family massacres, back to back rape cases, back to back road accidents, back to back ambushes and salvage, etc. But no one dares to care to explain why such crimes or incidents happens in two or is it just mere coincidence or omens what the Philippines will be become for the next forthcoming years? Signs that the Philippines is not headed to a bright future but omens to more darker Philippines, like what is currently happening now in the Philippines, most especially the political system of it, but are majority of Filipinos care for their race or just want to destroy  themselves asunder?</p>

<p>From the very start, the election case filed by the Aquino government against former Philippine president now Pampanga representative Gloria Macapagal Arroyo already involved “Irregularities” and “corruption” of law proceedings, why this faulty flawed case still continues to progress as if it follows the standard operating procedures of filing a case and shows to the public that it is legal and have no any “irregularities” and “corruption”? This is already an obvious abuse of power and deliberate manipulation of the law of the Aquino administration just only to suit their raging hatred toward Mrs. Arroyo and just only to show to the public that the Aquino administration is rigid and true on its campaign against graft and corruption? Something really already amiss and some Filipinos are missing the right thing but was trick and made dupe by the Aquino administration. This stealthy public deception must be stop, but the Filipinos are not stopping its illegal and corrupt tracks because some Filipinos are brainwashed to think that Mrs. Arroyo is indeed guilty of the allegations which have not yet proven to be true and they want the blood of Mrs. Arroyo.How barbaric and blood-thirsty are some Filipinos; if Mrs. Arroyo is indeed innocent why push more hardly(bakit pagpipilitan) and desperately that Mrs. Arroyo is guilty of the allegations whereas she is not; are some Filipinos insane? Or are some Filipinos are very self-conceited to admit their own mistakes to the world? Or is it the Aquino administration and it followers and believers are the only insane, obsessed and corrupt?</p>
<p>Actually, the Supreme Court’s temporary restraining order is still in effect and Mrs. Arroyo could still avail to it. The arrest and the jailing of Mrs. Arroyo is indeed manipulation and bending of the law proceedings and the Aquino administration is fooling and deceiving the public to be legal and the some ignoramus were nodding to it only because they have also personal hatred and vendetta against Mrs. Arroyo. The Philippine government is playing Injustice through hatred and vendetta for are the so-called evidences, really evidences? And where are the evidences that will prove the allegation?</p>
<p>Even Senator Koko Pimentel who foolishly the one who file electoral sabotage case against Mrs. Arroyo last November which lead to uncanny arrest of Mrs. Arroyo now believe there is no link that will prove the allegations against Mrs. Arroyo.</p>
<p>Some Points to Consider, why the case and the allegations should be dismiss</p>
<p>1. Evidences are based on hearsay only and even doctored and deliberately bias evidence like the “Hello Garci” tape recording. This is not admissible and acceptable in the court unless the Aquino administration “Satanized” the court to bow down to his narcisstic hypocritical rule that will make the unlawful into lawful one. For according to PNoy he is the Moral Law.</p>
<p>2. Electoral Sabotage case (2004 election).There is no electoral sabotage law during 2004 but actually just created after 2004, what can only be charge is election fraud which is bailable and could take 10 years. Moreover, is the Anti-GMA camp especially the Aquino administration having solid concrete evidence to prove this allegation of them against Mrs. Arroyo?</p>
<p>3. Electoral Sabotage case (2007 election).Norie Unas as witness? What a joke. Aside from not credible witness, former Philippine president now Pampanga representative Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is not candidate of this election and there is no solid evidence yet that will link to Mrs. Arroyo on the said electoral cheating in Maguindanao but all pure malice and speculations nothing else.</p>
<p>4. Plunder cases. Again is there are solid evidences so far that will link to Mrs. Arroyo about pocketing millions of government funds on her own pocket? So far,  NONE.</p>
<p>5. DOJ-Comelec case against Gloria violates Comelec Rules of Procedure for a quorum and votes and DOJ sec, De Lima disrespect Supreme Court’s TRO but reason out subjectively bias against Mrs. Arroyo travel ban. Now DOJ sec. De Lima is facing contempt and disbarment case.</p>
<p>6. The rush electoral sabotage case file against Mrs. Arroyo at the height of Mrs. Arroyo supposed departure lacks “due process” and obviously a perversion of a SOP law proceedings regarding filing a case and violation of the Supreme Court’s TRO. “How can you possibly file a case with allegedly eight volumes of documents and evidence only three days after the SC has issued a TRO order on the travel ban?”-Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago. Thus, the arrest and house arrest and plan incarceration of Mrs. Arroyo by the Anti-GMA camp especially the Aquino administration is ILLEGAL AND UNLAWFUL.HEY FILIPINOS WAKE UP! Don’t be fool buy those who pretend to be good and heroes of the Filipinos whereas they are not.</p>
<p>7. How can the allegations moves further if the Anti-GMA have no any solid evidences to back up their case. The recent arrest of Mrs. Arroyo is indeed a clear cut manipulation of the law and abuse of power and authority by the Aquino administration just only to prove to its blood-thirsty Filipino admirers that they have now file a case against Mrs. Arroyo and will finally jail her and will feast on her blood.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Retarded and Misdirected”, this is how the lawmakers in the Philippines branded the decision and action of PNoy when he supported secretly the enemies of the Philippine republic-the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF)- by giving them a secret P5 Million funds through a secret Tokyo meeting with Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) Chairman Al Haj Murad Ibrahim last August 5,2011 to support secretly the plans of Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) for reinforcing the Moros, in disguise as “Peace Talks” but in full denial when the secret deal was exposed in the public and even use GMA as their scapegoat yet totally fail. For Noynoy and his KKK excuses were too illogical to be accepted.</p>
<p>In attempt to clean his own treason act, Noynoy announces an “all-out-justice” for those 19 Filipino soldiers that have died mercilessly on the hands of the Moros in Basilan but still fall short and boomerang back on his Hypocrite face because he has protected the Moros by his own policy and by his support for the Moros who have killed the 19 Filipino soldiers by giving them P5 million funds which is suspected that the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) used the fund to buy guns and ammunitions which the Moros has probably use to kill the 19 Filipino soldiers though the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) denied they haven’t used the P5 Million funds yet and will use it for the training of their Moros to be a better leader[??] and for the betterment of Muslim Filipinos(according to the PNoy Administration) in the hands of the Moros[???] which could be perceive  as mere alibi to cover-up their dirty acts and plans.</p>
<p>Aquino supporting the Moros is indeed not farfetched because PNoy’s own father Ninoy Aquino is a communist  conspirator who provide confidential information to Malaysia which eventually lead the Philippines to lose battle for Sabah by exposing the secret plan of former Philippine president Marcos to reclaim Sabah from illegal ownership of Malaysia which consequently cause the deaths of many Filipinos soldiers then who fight for Philippines’ ownership of Sabah by the treasonous act of Ninoy Aquino(a traitor of the Filipino race yet ignorant and brainwashed Filipinos considered him a hero).The Malaysian government is now the one gaining billions of money from oil and gas-rich Sabah illegally which is supposed to be the Philippines is the one who gains from its own land that has been snatched illegally.</p>
<p>Moreover, if Noynoy is like his father who loves to commit treasonous acts against Filipinos, Ninoy is also like his own father also, Benigno Aquino Sr., the grandfather of Noynoy who also commit treason act against his fellow Filipinos during World War II at the Japanese Occupation being a Makapili who betrays fellow Filipinos to the Japanese. These truths are not black propaganda against the Aquino but actually they are historically real and fact and can be verified.</p>
<p>Furthermore, the woman hailed as saint and mother of Philippine democracy of many Filipinos today -Corazon Aquino- free the leader of Community Part of the Philippines(CPP)-New People’s Army(NPA) Jose Maria Sison who spread communist terrorism in the Philippines then after being arrested and jailed by former Philippine president Ferdinand Marcos.</p>
<p>What can we say, the Aquino family is in full support of the Communist groups that spreads terroristic acts in the Philippines yet some Filipinos are still blind about the Aquinos by considering them heroes and saint[???] despite the reality that the Aquinos were not but rather enemies of the Filipinos disguise as good and supporter of Filipino mass.</p>
<p>When will the Filipino people be awaken from being deceived and played by the self-seeking oligarchs like the Aquino family? Up to when the Filipinos allow these traitors to continue to wrecked the entire Philippines asunder, up to when?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A colonial Spanish Christianity inspired tradition of visiting the dead is what the annual Filipino “undas” is all about. A heritage of the elite religious colonial powers preserve diligently by a religious sheeples is what it resonates on this religious tradition of the predominant Christian Philippines celebrated or observed on either three(3) days : October 31 ( the pre-observance),November 1 ( the day of observance itself) and November 2 ( the post observance).Since the Philippines is a predominant Christian in religion, most often than not, ”undas” have become falsely attributed as a pure original Filipino tradition and culture which every religious sheeple Filipinos can’t let go because they have already assimilated it on their own Filipino sheeple-programmed blood and non-concurrence of it would mean disrespect to the dead and disobedience to god. Thus, any Filipino would not concur is cast on the bad light and labeled “godless” by some majority of spiritually illiterate common mass of Filipinos. Some will deny it but it is indeed true.</p>
<p>Inherited colonial tradition is more cherished, love, hallowed (making it official Holiday) and preserved than Filipinos own spiritual tradition. This is how majority of all Christian-believing Filipinos whether academically professionals or not are cheated of their own true spiritual heritage because most of them are not inclined to spirituality; or they might be inclined to but already tainted with Christian concepts like most of the so-called Filipino spiritual books in the book market today.</p>
<p>Furthermore, Christian tradition of “All Saints’ Day” and “All Souls Day” are not the only colonial religious tradition that have successfully subdued the spiritual mindset of majority modern Filipinos today in times of “undas” or during October 31- November 2, but also the concepts of Halloween have creep in and ingrained on the spiritual life and culture of every modern Filipinos. This is so because most Filipinos do not value much true spirituality but Fake junk spirituality instead, for some thought spirituality is just a mere religiosity; worshipping and serving god, obeying the commandments of god, doing what is good in order to go to ‘heaven”, etc.</p>
<p>But spirituality is not that or it is not religion, this is where most common mass of Filipinos fall short in terms of spirituality. Thus, most common mass of Filipinos can be manipulated and controlled spiritually. This is how base is the modern culture of Filipinos in regards to their spiritual status.</p>
<p>The most important aspect of life is not valued by most modern Filipinos because Filipinos were cheated by organized religion like Christianity and Islam in their spiritual growth and status, due to either they are illiterate to it or have no inclinations about it. However, only few Filipinos seek true spirituality without the Jesus-thing.</p>
<p>“Undas” is just one of the colonial inspired religious traditions being preserved diligently by modern Filipinos aside from it, there is Christmas, Fiesta (Feasts of the Catholic Saints), etc.<br />
Modern Filipinos have lost their spiritual identity indeed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Suicide as we all know are brought by a very depressed suicidal person who could no longer bear the problems one has. Problems vary from person to person and how one could cope or how one face it.</p>
<p>But lately, the Filipinos seems to break the previous reports that Filipinos are happy  people that do not surrender to life’s  challenging problems but face every problems and adversities with a cheerful happy heart. “Tinatawan lang ang problema” (Filipinos just laugh at the problems)<br />
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 457px"><img alt="The man who jump to death at Robinson Imus" src="http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/297972_301465716546787_100000500821762_1225753_440479465_n.jpg" width="447" height="604" /><p class="wp-caption-text">The man who jump to death at Robinson Imus</p></div><br />
For Lately, the Philippine has been plague with suicide cases and what is more disturbing is some of these suicides were done on public places just what happened lately on two consecutive suicide incidents on SM Malls perpetrated by a couple who suppose to love each other but end up killing the beloved one on open public. Moreover, infidelity and depression seems to be the two reasons why one wanted to kill the beloved as well as oneself from the two consecutive incidents at SM Malls.</p>
<p>However, not only the depression brought by a wayward love-partner cause a Filipino to commit suicide and killing the beloved one but also depression brought by a loss of job and nagger mother[?].Reports said that a lay off policeman shoot his own mother before shooting himself on a public place just only because he loses his job and was scolded by his own mother. Then similar news followed after one another.</p>
<p>But most recently is the suicide incident, this time around at Robinson Mall last October 20,011 at Robinson Mall Imus Cavite branch. The report says that the suicide victim jumps from the 4th Floor of the mall at around 1 pm with no yet accurate reason why he commits suicide. The angle being seen is depression brought by love life again because the suicidal victim is said to be a gay man because he wears female clothing.</p>
<p>Actually, these suicidal incidents is not something new in the Philippines but only become a recent sensational issue because the place of suicidal death is on public places where everyone could see, for there are many suicidal cases out there perpetrated by very depressed Filipinos which were not reported on mainstream media. For the mainstream media are just bias and selective in their reports.</p>
<p>Truly, the survey reports that Filipinos are very happy people and problems in life could not bring them down is definitely not true but somehow deceitful in its essence just only to allure foreign tourist people to visit the Philippines and to project hypocritically to the world that Filipinos are one of the most beautiful races in the world.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>From July 11 To July 17</strong></p>
<p>Top Happenings in the Philippines within the days between July 11,2011 up to July 17,2011 that make a noise in the Philippines in accordance to my observation as well as my own opinions regarding them.</p>
<p><strong>1. Zaldy’s Truth or Way Out?</strong> One will wonder why Zaldy Ampatuan only now reveal (if it is true) that former Philippine president Ms. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo indeed cheat the 2004 and 2007 elections and not on the middle of its investigation then, now that he is in the brink to be sentenced on court for the Maguindanao Massacre accused against him, his brother and his father? So what is his hidden motive for doing such, to save himself?</p>
<p>If his purpose is only to save his life, then his revelations could not be true but it is just his trick to bait the PNoy administration since GMA is the weakness of PNoy. Furthermore, his mere testimony without any solid material evidence to back it up will not be strong enough to implicate GMA on the alleged 2004 and 2007 election cheating for the court never honors much a mere mouth-testimony only because eye witness testimonies are not always reliable and credible since humans tends to have memory lapses.<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 620px"><img alt="Zaldy With GMA " src="http://www.spot.ph/files/2009/11/gma-ampatuan.jpg" width="610" height="434" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Zaldy With GMA </p></div></p>
<p>But since PNoy is GMA obsessed, he bite the bait and would like to turn upside down the table making Zaldy Ampatuan a star witness rather than one of the main suspects of the Maguindanao massacre only because PNoy hear the majic word – GMA. Thus, he could now pervert justice just only he could feed his own wrath and obsession against GMA.</p>
<p>Actually, Malacanang have already given Zaldy Ampatuan a lawyer as a star witness.</p>
<p>Not only PNoy got hook on Zaldy’s bait but also the rest who were obsessed to know the truth behind the alleged 2004 and 2007 election fraud especially on Maguindanao.But is Zaldy a credible witness or proof to discover the truth about the 2004 to 2007 election fraud or he will just pervert only more everything since we already knew that he is in the brink of being sentence for the Maguindanao massacre and he is just fabricating something just to save himself?</p>
<p>What a shame to this current administration if they succumb to this kind of trickery if Zaldy is just fabricating lies just to save himself.</p>
<p><strong>2. Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) so-called “corruption” is a fraud. </strong>The accusation of new management of Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) against the past administration regarding corrupt practices and bishops receiving pajeros and cash was proven to be not accurately true and the new management of Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) are the ones who are doing a corrupt practices instead by insinuating on the public something not true and the bishops wanted a public apology for the stain the false accusation of the new management of Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) have caused to their morale and reputation, but PNoy is reluctant to give in to such request though his another new appointee have failed again.</p>
<p><strong>3. A Call To Oust PNoy by Col. Generoso Mariano</strong>. An incumbent deputy commander of the Naval Reserve Command, Col.Geneorso Mariano on a video call the nation to do an action to replace the incompetence Aquino administration by forcing PNoy to oust thru People Power[??] which culminates the start of dissatisfaction of big and dignitary people in the Philippines against PNoy style of presidency contrary to PNoy’s self-delusional claim that majority of Filipinos love him and those who oppose him are just mere GMA supporters or opposition supporters. However, this is not the first time a dignitary person calls the public to dethrone PNoy on his post, but lately a Butuan Bishop named Juan De Dios Pueblos calls PNoy to resign.</p>
<p>This scenario is good for it teaches PNoy not to be arrogantly haughty and too much braggart-ly self-righteous. But it seems it has no effect to humble his boastfulness for he just brush it off that it is just the opinion of one person and no one supports Mariano.</p>
<p>Actually, though some Filipinos do not like anymore PNoy, they also already hate going to streets and perform another People Power but rather just withstand PNoy’s incompetency, hypocrisy, braggart-ness, and self-righteousness for more years hoping a miracle will come.</p>
<p><strong>4. Crocodile Attacks. </strong>The gruesome death of a fisherman has brought back the public scare of crocodile attacks and some old cases wherein the prime suspect is the crocodile. Communities near swamps and rivers are often the sudden helpless victims of the onslaughts of a hungry crocodile.<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 480px"><img alt="Scary Crocy Spotting Human foody" src="http://www.nidokidos.org/userpix/38570_nidokidosorg_329.jpg" width="470" height="324" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Scary Crocy Spotting Human foody</p></div></p>

<p>In our current world that is full of egotism and egolamaniac tendencies of world leaders, only few have philanthropic inclinations that desire to help their needy fellow humans without any exchange of payment. However, there are some who pretend to be philanthropist but are just a mere egoistic counterfeit jerks, like the self-righteous and hypocrite ones who always show-off on the public eyes or on others to have a desire to help fellow humans yet they eagerly expect something in return for the good works they have done to their neighbors wherein if the neighbors they have helped unable to reciprocate what they have done to them, they begin to boil in anger and wrath and name call the neighbor they have helped to be “ingrate(unthankful; in tagalong “Walang utang na loob” and “walang hiya”),”evil” and “selfish”.<br />
There are only few who help their fellow humans truly without any complain and expectation of reciprocation from the good works they have done to their needing neighbors. These few are the true workers of good and true philanthropists and hero.<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 194px"><img alt="Joey Concepcion" src="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSg3-OeYsBXB1EiFKwiwBFP-Xr_g-F8Exeb8cLlR9zfWRZxEQfHVg&amp;t=1" width="184" height="273" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Joey Concepcion</p></div></p>
<p>But though the Forbes Magazine list Heroes of Philanthropy on every country just picked successful rich men and women who do charitable and philanthropist endeavors and not others though they were not rich financially, also do a true philanthropist act, I still concur to their list.<br />
Recently, they include Filipinos in their list of “Heroes of Philanthropy” and these include Lucio Tan, Jesus Tambunting, Stephen Zuellig and Joey Concepcion who is the founder of the “Go Negosyo” business community that aims to solve unemployment and poverty in the Philippines through helping fellow Filipinos help themselves through going into own business enterprise (or Go Negosyo)</p>
<p>But according to Joey Concepcion, he is not the real hero but rather the men and women behind the Go Negosyo community who spend their time, talents, money and resources to help their fellow Filipinos help themselves. According to him, they are the true hero of Philanthropist and not him, which is indeed a humble attitude and true that unknown Filipinos who have no name in the world yet do true philanthropist acts should be the one be recognized and awarded for their philanthropist acts.<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 224px"><img alt="Go Negosyo" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_irTF6F0GAvs/SeyuKhp9o3I/AAAAAAAAAEM/RvqrNyQrZDs/s1600/greenbookcover.jpg" width="214" height="320" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Go Negosyo</p></div></p>
<p>Go Negosyo have already help many Filipinos gain an income through helping them how to exploit resources in their surroundings which they could transmute into life changing source of income. However, it is still not yet minimized poverty in the Philippines though it is one of its prime objectives, this is because many families in the Philippines especially the poor ones were incline to “go on and multiply” sexual mindset without any awareness and control the consequences of begetting many children without any financial stability.</p>
