Alright, this list is quite long, so I will start out with a few of my favorites, three this week. These are Filipina women, that I have grown to love as I go blog hopping in this vast blogosphere. They bring their advocacies, their unabashed personalities, and their strong convictions. They are [...]
Quick notice to all. Birthday of Manuel Quezon III today! May he have more birthdays to come.. More blogging days to come, more live blogging days to come, more twits to twit, more emails to mail, and more analysis for everyone to read.. A Daily Dose of Manolo always makes everyone happy.
This anonymous blogging thing, doesn’t work for me sometimes. I like the freedom that I have when it comes to not having to divulge my actual identity, but sometimes, it is a hindrance towards actually developing a connection with my readers. As I started Tingog.com, my main focus was not on myself, but [...]
Anakpawis Representative Crispin Beltran was buried today, many Filipinos are drying their tears. Gone is the labor leader of years past, a servant of the people. And as the wails of his supporter could be heard throughout today, it is still fitting for a man that gave much for what he believed. [...]
These days, aside from the MERALCO debacle, in which The Lopez family is still embroiled in, because the government just won’t relent, I find myself still enraptured and drawn to the sad and utter failure of Myanmar’s military Junta in providing aid for its people. In fact, they didn’t even need to provide aid, [...]
News broke out last week that Senator Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with malignant brain cancer. A sad week for The American people.
If ever there was to be royalty in the history of The United States, most would agree that The Kennedy family would be that royalty. Often referred to as Camelot, in reference [...]
I’m sick and tired of hearing Brian Gorrell’s name come up during conversation. I’m sick and tired that he’s even mentioned in the influential blogs, because he’s not, he’s just a damn fad. I feel sorry for him, for having been so gullible and falling for DJ Montano, and losing all his money [...]
Get ready for a real battle once Barack Obama officially becomes the party nominee for The Presidency. Make no mistake, this is going to be John McCain’s last chance at the presidency. He’s old, that’s no secret, and with age comes the dwindling prospect of mounting a third go at the presidency.
If Barack [...]
The truth is, no one really knows, but in all likelihood, according to the numbers that were coming in, when the recount in Florida was suddenly stopped by The Supreme Court, Al Gore should have won the election.
An election that was stolen, a presidency that was stolen, the movie RECOUNT which will be showing on [...]
This is my submission for The Philippine Issues Writing Project. With much thought, it becomes clear, if it’s not already, that poverty in our nation is by far the most important issue that we face today. Because it touches on so many aspects of our nation, including injustice, and the hindering of our [...]
I will be doing a few blog reviews within the next two weeks or so. It will be as much for me, as it will be for you readers. It will become my homage to my fellow bloggers, without which, this blogging life would be severely lonely. Filipino Bloggers have forged a [...]
Never mind that Filipino Voices is already getting 250+ visitors per day, around 700 pageviews per day, and an average of 50+ feed subscribers in just six weeks, but take notice of the deeply thought out articles being written by some of the most talented Filipino bloggers we have today. This is why, I [...]
I’m not above saying that I am wrong. And in the case of Alfredo Lim’s son, Manuel Lim, and his “alleged” involvement in a drug buy-bust operation, in which he “sold drugs”, I had first thought that Alfredo Lim’s “hands off” approach was a noteworthy sign that Alfredo Lim stood by his principles. [...]
Over at Filipino Voices, my recent article is about the new photos that have surfaced which portrays President Gloria Arroyo golfing with her “buddies” at ZTE, apparently the same trip to China in which the NBN deal was finalized. The President didn’t reveal this to the people, but then again, as more things seem [...]
This essay was reportedly written by a Korean (English) student who was more grieved for our country than we are.
Please read with a grain of salt, ponder on his/her words, and maybe, just maybe we can collectively repent and decide to start working to uplift our country.
As you know, we have plenty of Koreans currently [...]
Oh my freaakin’ Lord!! Charice Pempengco, child wonder, singing for Oprah Winfrey herself. Bringing her A-game, and that powerful voice. I saw it, and I couldn’t believe the voice. I must admit, that was the first time I heard her sing. Everyone’s been raving about her, the whole international community has [...]
