Nakakahiya!!!!!
March 11th, 2008 at 9:27 am
this is one truth that almost everybody agrees on.magmula sa pinakamataas na nanunungkulan hanggang sa pinakamababang posisyon sa gobyerno umaalingasaw ang korapsiyon. nakakahiya talaga ang imahe ng pilipinas sa ibang bansa. ang tanong na lang e, bilang pilipino may ginagawa ka ba para baguhin ito, o mas binibigyan mo ng panahon ang labanang kapuso’t kapamilya?

Do not over fixated on the survey says, because survey bring us in the world of frustration. If we still consider Philippines is the most corrupt country in Asia. so what?
If you want truly understand something, try to change it. Do not ever give up if you still want to try, do not ever wipe your tears if you still want to cry. Do not ever settle for an answer if you still want to know.
Haga no sobre fijó en la inspección dice, porque inspecciona nos trae en el mundo de la frustración. ¿Si consideramos todavía Filipinas son el la mayoría del corrompe el país en Asia. tan qué?
Si usted quiere entiende sinceramente algo, la prueba para cambiarlo. No renuncie jamás si usted quiere todavía tratar, hacer enjuga jamás sus lágrimas si usted quiere todavía llorar. No asiéntese jamás para una respuesta si usted quiere todavía saber.

It’s pathetic , i felt bad for my family who’s still there in the philippines …. My friends here in the mainland are very much in a mix from caucasian , to all asian ethnic background , jewish , persians , also from turkey and armenia and me of course the one and only filipino although i’ve been here for more than 2 decades in some ways i’m still filipino by nature ( for one thing i am a die hard TFC teleserye addict ) …. to make the long story short , i cant possibly in a way be proud of my country , the corruption is quite obvious , everytime there is somewhat of a news in the philippines from Fox News to Cnn it’s not in anyway a good news if not something that makes you wanna hide from your friends because for sure they will ask and more often i dont have a good explanation .

pero abs-cbn ang maka-gloria!obvious na obvious naman malakas yata c gloria sa mga lopezes & vice versa!ginagamit nila ang isat isa kaya nga di bumababa ang singil sa kuryente!!!tsk tsk tsk
March 12th, 2008 at 12:30 am
hay naku hays. stop blaming the lopezes for the increase in your electricity bill. kung tutuusin nga, you’re paying lower electricity bills than us kasi our power is generated by electric cooperatives whose generation charge is higher than that of meralco. if meralco makes the mistake of charging consumers higher, the govt. compels them to refund. but in our case, we have to live with the harsh reality that there would be no such refunds. they sometimes misuse their funds & yet we bear the burden of paying them. and one more thing, the lopezes are not pro-gma; perhaps they supported her during edsa2 but now i believe they too feel sorry for having supported her like i did as pgma turned out to be worse than pres. erap.

maging aral na lang sana sa gobyerno ang sagot ni janina san miguel. dagdagan ang pondo pra sa edukasyon. at sana pag may pondo nman, gamitin sa dapat paggamitan hndi ung ilalaan sa pansariling interest. napakababa na ng quality ng edukasyon sa Pilipinas. naturingan pa nman tayong nasa top 3 ng english speaking countries pero nakakahiya lang. nakita ko nga sa YSpeak episode last saturday, sa rank ng universities around the world, nasa top 300+ lang UP, 400+ naman ang ateneo and la salle.. natalo pa tayo ng singapore and Japan. sila na top 50.. kita naman kahit mga pinakamatataas na opisyal ng Pilipinas, mas masahol pa sila sa mga walang pinag-aralan.. magaling lang ang Pilipino sa pagyayabang..
wow tlga! Pilipinas most corrupt.. MABUHAY ANG PINAS!!
March 16th, 2008 at 7:34 pm

Pinagsasasabi nyo dyan?! Pa-English-English pa yung iba dyan baluktot naman… At pano naman nasali ang GMA7 dito? Dapat pa ba kayong magtaka? Eh grabe naman talaga ang kurapsyon dito sa bansang to…
Isa lang ipupunto ko; Kung nabuhay ako nung panahon ng mga bayani ikararangal kong maging Pilipino. Ngayon, ikinahihiya kong maging Pilipino.
Masarap sigurong pakinggan ngayon ang mga panlalait sa atin ng mga banyaga, “Low class (Mga mabababang uri)”. Palagay ko hindi na ako maaasar pag may banyagang nagsabi sa akin nito.
December 25th, 2008 at 10:16 am
lolx. b*b* tlga ng mga taga manila. anong nationwide survey ang pinagsasabi nyo? we’ve never even heard of such surveys! never happened here.. im pretty sure that those respondents were paid.. lols. dali nyo talagang maloko..
