I quote what Nasser Pangandam Sr. said: “They should be sensitive to the feelings of others, the past few days have been very painful for us.” Look who is talking. Was he sensitive to the feelings of de la Paz and family when his son and his son’s bodyguards mauled Mr. de la Paz and his 14-year-old son despite of the pleadings of the 14 year old teen? Mr. Pangandaman is talking as if his son and his son’s bodyguards were the ones mauled by Mr. de la Paz and his 14-year-old son…tell that to the marines. The best thing you can do and your son is to resign as a secretary and your hot headed son as Mayor. If your son can do that in a prestigious club, then for sure in his town where he is a mayor he must be acting as if he is the god. All the readers’ guess is as good as mine.

Mang goding… You tell me: why do most filipinos work abroad?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
On the other hand, I feel proud that filipinos work abroad.
Imagine, there are billions of citizens around the world, and it is only we, filipinos,are the most sought workers.
Why?
It is not that Philippine is a poor country but because filipinos are the best workers in the world in terms of education, english as they say, hardworking, obedient and so on and so forth.
Are you not proud of that? Whether there is economic crisis or not, filipinos are in demand.
No need to elaborate.
Filipinos are skilled in their profession. Filipinos are the best exports and I am happy for that.

Sir’
You are understimating the illigal drug business.
It rakes more money beyond your imagination. Billions and billions of pesos goes to the drug syndicate. It earns more than the illigal numbered games and lotto combine.
I have been to the remote corners of many provinces, and I am witness to the addiction.
Your tendency to believe what you see is like denying the existence of air. It is colorless, it is odorless, but it exist.
Why, do you douth that you have a soul? dON’T BE A DOUTHING tOMAS, one of Christ deciple. Or do you also deny that our government is corrupt in spite of being branded as such by World Bank and IMF.
The resource of drug syndicate is so huges, it can now affect even the winning of political candidates.
Would you deny that China and Taiwan government are not aware that these illigal drugs came from them? Remember, one of the PDEA and NBI operation caught groups of Taiwanis and Mainland Chinese working together in the illicit LABORATORY.
They can even put a price on my head if they want to. Illigal drugs, just like power, corrupts, it kills, and it bribes.

“masyado kang conclusive sa opinion mo. wala namang mailabas na pera sa drug bribe offer na 50million na naging 3 manok.
yan ang hirap sa atin pilipino, magaling sa story telling a lie.
kung mailalabas kahit na 3million offer, maniniwala ako na may corruption sa gobyerno. pero wala, sabi ni ganito, sabi ni ganire. we want proof hindi sabisabi.”
Are you a government official or protecting someone whom you know is corrupt?we also want proof, bro…but sometimes the truth is twisted in our country’s current political and judicial system. You should know that, its not only hearsays…it is evident and clear when you listen to these dumb politicians.

Mang goding, I somehow agree with wonderwoman in many things…and I cant blame her for saying that the philippines is going down the sewer. You tell me: why do most filipinos work abroad?whatever happened to most of the government money?what are our politicians doing to alleviate poverty and eliminate corruption? If you can answer that in one sentence, then maybe, just maybe the Philippines is in the right track. Else, you might be the one hallucinating. Ibuka mo ang mga mata mo kabayan.
