(Napagalitan ako ng boss ko dahil hindi ko na fax yung purchase order sa supplier namin dahil ginagawa ko ito. Hindi ko alam kung papano ako makakatulong sa bansa para malunasan itong issue na ito, pero sana sa pag summarize ko ng mga balita, makatulong ako. At kayo mambabasa para naman sulit yung pagalit ng boss ko sakin, i-share nyo na lang itong pinaghirapan ko sa mga social media sites niyo hanggang sa kumalat sa buong mundo.)

Sex Scandals & Philippine Politics : The Dirty Nasty Truth

In the Philippines, we used to have that old idiom  don't wash your dirty laundry in public, but social media is now changing all of that. Now with Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, everyone else is playing with dirty laundry, and somehow I think its a good thing.

I'm a big fan of the series Gossip Girl, where one insider gets access to the lives and scandals of the upper elites and exposes them to unsuspecting masses. I think its a great idea, and it seems to be happening now in the Philippines.  I really don't care much about the recent Sex scandal of rockstar Chito Miranda and girlfriend Neri, or the boring family feuds like the Barretos, but there's a big bomb exploding daily on a small blog about a certain Napoles family, and its turning out to be the biggest scam so far that has been uncovered by investigative reporters – that of the P10 B scam that involved the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), better known as the pork barrel. 

Napoles and her Government offical friends spreading their Evil (i'm stealing from you all) grin. 

Comments by Anonymous on this blog post has revealed detailed information on how this super Elites and organized Crime lords, many of them holding government offices are stealing BILLIONS every year from our hardearned taxpayers money, while 70% of our country remain below poverty.

People are now talking about the sex tape of famous rockstar Chito Miranda, but the truth is this 10B peso Pork Barrel Scam, this obscene weath that this filthy opportunists have amassed through the years since the time of Diosdado Macapagal, to Marcos to the present, has put us all in the same hopeless boat, has put our kababayans in squalor while the tacky noveau riche like the Napoles gets to party in NYC and drown in champagne wearing Loubotins - THIS, This to me is the real OBSCENITY.  This is the real Dirty, Nasty Shit. This is what we should be talking about. Not some homemade video sex tape.

Actually this particular news is not new to me or to all of us Pinoys. We all know this. We each have our own "anak ni mayor", "kaibigan ni governor" stories enough to justify this. The culture of corruption in our country has come to point where people, all of us regular pinoys, have just come to accept that it is part of our daily lives. Thinking it is hopeless to fight, we became  helpless and lazy, that we have come to accept that our government officials are free to get away with it. Sometimes we even try to benefit from it, because come to think of it we like the idea of VVIP.

But this has to stop. Right now we have rays of hope. We are on the verge of change.  We are getting positive credit ratings world wide, our tourism sector is growing, our Filipino expats (OFWs) are making way for stronger middle class but yet this chain of corruption keeps dragging us down. THIS HAS TO STOP.

I urged you to sign the petition and take a stand against this widespread corruption. We need to pressure Broadcast media like the evil empire of ABS CBN (who has been mum about this issue) to support  this, we need to this by ourselves.

A group of concerned citizens and former government officials have filed a petition on Change.Org for the Office of the Ombudsman to investigate the misuse of the Pork Barrel Fund. There are a few good men. Let's support them. 


Mahal ko ang Pilipinas at nahihirapan ang mga tao taon taon, habang ang mga mismong government officials ang nagnanakaw sa kaban na dapat ay gamitin para umunlad ang bansa. Madami ang sangkot at talamak ang corruption sa Pilipinas pero naniniwala ako na hindi ako nagiisa, madami ang sawang-sawa na sa magsasamantala ng mga corrupt sa gobyerno. Nagpapakahirap kami dito sa ibang bansa for our families back home, to give them a better life and in turn improve our situation in the country, lahat ng mangagawa sa Pinas ay sapilitang nagbabayad ng buwis. 

That is HARD-EARNED taxpayers money that they are stealing from us and using to service their lavish lifestyles, and obscene wealth. I am just one person, but I still believe there are good people in government and in private institutions like our broadcast media who can turn this thing around. Let's do this together. This time around wag tayong maging bulag. Let's bring this system of corruption down and call for change!

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
