Author: No More “Wang Wang” But What About “Bang Bang”?
If PNoy(President Noy) wanted to contained and eliminate the unwanted use of “Wang Wang”, he should also do something about the horrific unwanted use of guns by anyone in the Philippines, most especially about the incessant killings of journalist and media men and those who are victims of the so called “summary execution” by vigilantes, since the time of late ex-Philippine President Marcos, if he is really for true changes and right path.
The use of Wang Wang is a mere petty issue and has of course a definite purpose why one uses it. It is not because one is boastful or haughty as some malicious Pilipinos convey the use of it, rather for emergency or for safety’s sake.
Now, because PNoy does not use a Wang Wang on his convoy though he should, find himself get late always on his appointments because his convoy always stock on traffic. Why does he have to think if he uses one, he will look authoritative or boastful, though he is not?
Why put so much negativity to such petty issue whereas the more serious issue in the Philippines is not being “Wang Wang” so that anyone will pay attention to it?
The use of a gun to shoot and kill anyone the owner of the gun wishes to use it for is indeed the real issue which the new president of the Philippines should deal urgently.
Recently, there is reported another killings of a journalist and a victim of a summary execution, does the new president care about this important matter or he is still focus on his hatred on unwanted and misuse of “Wang Wang”?

Pompous Inaugural
Pompous celebration Again? Yes, Pilipino once again set their hope and expectations with pomp and glitters of happy and hopeful emotions to the inaugural of a newly elected Philippine president which the eventuality always are frustrations, impeachment and “people power” if the newly elected Philippine president have not met the expectations and the hope they trust and cling on during the pompous inaugural.
Now, the inaugural of the 15th Philippine president has been highly hope for because they expect too much that the 15th Philippine president Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III will not fail them and disappoint them just like what the former Philippine presidents have always done.
For some Pilipinos thought that “Noynoy” being a son of the Philippine’s icons of democracy – late ex-Philippine president Corazon Aquino and late ex-Philippine Senator Benigno Aquino – he will also do the like of his parents. However, do his parents have augmented the condition and status of the Philippines, economically and spiritually? In my opinion, they did not, but rather his parents only oppose political oppression and dictatorship and not economic oppression and spirituality. For if the late ex-Philippine President Corazon Aquino have truly reign successfully and have truly bring success and progress to the Philippines, politically, economically, and spiritually, there would be no problems of such of these now and on during her reign or administration, like graft and corruption, poverty, moral hypocrisy, etc.? Is not it?
Therefore, is “Noynoy” the hope Pilipino are waiting for or is it just a mere an empty emotional excitement again?

Zambales in the Philippines and its Popular Municipalities/Cities
This province adjacent Pampanga Philippines is well known of course as the region where Mt. Pinatubo erupted during 1991 where it devastated almost the entire central Luzon Philippines. However, despite of this famous natural disaster, Zambales Philippines still stands out among the provinces of central Luzon Philippines. This is so because of Zambales Philippines prominent municipalities and cities like Olongapo city, Subic Bay Freeport, San Felipe Zambales, Iba Zambales, Botolan Zambales, Palauig Zambales and other famous Zambales municipalities.
Olongapo city Zambales is said to be the first class city in Zambales Philippines. It is said to have 227,270 dwellers within the city and one of cleanest city at Zambales Philippines. However, it is distinct city among the cities or municipalities of Zambales in the Philippines for it is a chartered city. That is, it has its own government and legislation in the city and not in compliance with the local governance of Zambales Philippines. This is due because Olongapo city before it has become One of the Philippine cities or rather one of Zambales municipality, it is under the governance of United States and part of United States naval reserves in the Philippines, it was only by the untiring effort of James Gordon, Olongapo city become Zambales own city but with chartered governance.
Another Zambales City which is adjacent to Olongapo city is the Subic City or Subic Bay Freeport Zone which is of similar situation with Olongapo city. As we know, Subic Bay is a home or former home of United States Military facilities outside the US mainland jurisdiction. And the US Naval Base location at Subic Bay is the one called Freeport Zone where the entire tourist (local and foreigner alike) flocks to play Casinos, rest and unwind at its beaches and resorts, etc. Like Olongapo city, Subic Bay was formerly held in administration of the United States Government but Like James Gordon have done to Olongapo city, his Son Richard Gordon lobbied its independence also.
Another famous Zambales Municipality of town is the home of Mt.Pinatubo which is Botolan Zambales. Botolan Zambales is the host of two major festivities at Zambales Philippines, namely the Domorokdok Festival held during May, and the Fiesta Poon Bato held during January. Botolon Zambales also boast of its fast growing recreational and resort areas like hiking near a waterfalls for example as a recreational activity.
San Felipe Zambales in other hand boast its best access routes into the slopes of Mt. Pinatubo and its Mountain ranges and rivers and beaches.
Iba Zambales,as we all Filipinos know that it is the birth place of former President Ramon Magsaysay and the Provincial Capital of Zambales Philippines. Iba Zambales has also beaches and rivers and its beaches is one of the busiest and most flock beaches in Zambales Philippines.
Palauig Zambales, however, home the highest peak mountain in Zambales Philippines, which is Mt. Tapulao with 2037 meter peak high. It is best for those who love mountain hiking. Actually, a Korean tourist who was impressed by Mt.Tapulao’s beauty has dubbed Palauig Zambales as the Baguio city of the Philippines of Zambales Philippines.
