Speaking to an intelligent and admirable individual a few weeks back, I came out with a sort of conclusion about how our piled up issues can become something of a nightmare, when one focuses on these issues too much. It is indeed a sacrifice in itself to stay current on the issues, work towards […]
It’s been seven years since the attacks of 9/11, and without a doubt it has definitely been the cause for the rise of the misplaced Bush Foreign policy. It has weighed on the minds of Americans and many around the world, a turning point in our recent history. I’ll defer a post as […]
I’m busy all week, working on FV matters (mostly on the back end of things), much work related activities, and much reading up on engineering studies too. Some people forget that I’m engineer, since I never actually write about engineering issues or topics, which trust me, I would probably lose all my readers with […]
Maybe the answer is not bringing down the OFW, but maybe we as a society should start celebrating the different kinds of heroes in our midst. There’s an argument that OFW are not heroes, because that would entail a sense of heroism for doing something that is meant for them and their families alone. […]
I see Pedro in my dreams, and he waves in passing. I am a Filipino who cannot forget, and believes strongly that life must be about making a difference, if indeed we are to live meaningful lives. I do not dare go against the grain of my passion, to steal the life that […]
There was a time in my life when all I could think about was myself, when the furthest I could think about of my future was what I would eat for dinner. I changed. When I realized that the homeless man and the poor among us have lives, have stories, have families, and […]
There’s too much on my plate as of the moment to write even a semi-coherent analysis on politics and/or news, so I won’t even attempt it today. But on another note, I’d like to get some help to a recent proposal, that I really thought would be of great public service to our kababayans. […]
In a recent GMA News program, they report that the number of child laborers may increase due to the rise in prices of goods. Wow, these are some damn bright individuals we have here. In any case, the following video is important to note,

In the report, zero […]
I look at the propaganda machine of The Arroyo Administration as well as other “presidentiables” including Noli De Castro himself, and I just get sick to my stomach. A whole lot of lip service, and yet they keep our nation as a slave to the oligarchs that run our country. We keep paying […]
Who the hell keeps sending me pictures of the RCBC Bank Robbery Massacre should go to hell! I don’t need to see them, no one else needs to see them, the fact that these individuals were killed in cold blood, execution style, should be enough of a reason to not even want to see […]
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 […]
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 […]
If there’s anything that gets my blood boiling, it is the killing and murder of innocent individuals, and the the sidetracking of human and civil rights. For the people of Burma, there is no more such thing as Human Rights, there is just a human will — to live.
Background: Since August 19, 2007 […]
Hi. My name is Nick, I’m Filipino, and I have been lied to and humiliated by Gloria Arroyo. They say the first step to recovery is to admit that you have a problem. Well, I’m happy to say, that I’m not alone. If you too have been lied to, have been […]
I had thought of not blogging for the day, but I’m compelled by emotion to almost write a lengthy article for Cris Anthony Mendez (CA). The victim of hazing, who’s life was cut too short, while those involved walk away. Justice is yet to be served. The cowards of Sigma Rho, The […]
The recent attempts of The Arroyo Administration, whether they admit it or not, is an attempt to discredit Rodolfo Noel “Jun” Lozada. But they fail to realize, that the public opinion regarding the role of the administration in the NBN deal is already set in stone. Most people already think that the Arroyo […]
