Mabuti lang nabulgar ng Inquirer ang bagong anomalya sa Department of Education tungkol sa overpriced computers. Kung hindi may gagamitin na naman sana ang mga kandidato ni Gloria Arroyo sa Bicol, kasama na ang kanyang anak na si Dato, sa pamimili ng boto sa eleksyon.
Panibagong version ng fertilizer scam sana ang nangyari.
Ito ay isa na namang ehemplo kung paano ginagamit ng mga walang pusong pulitiko ang kalamidad para sa kanilang pansariling interest.
Sa report ni Fe Zamora noong Huwebes, nagpa- bid ang DepEd (Bicol) para sa mga computers para sa mga lugar na nasalanta ng bagyo. Naglabas and DepEd ng P150 milyon para sa 600 na computers na walang brand kasama ang compact discs para sa elementary at highschool.
P150 milyon para sa 600 na unbranded computers??? Ang labas noon tig-P250,000.
Ano naman kayang klaseng computer ito na tig-P250,000? Ang computer ko, unbranded, may kasamang printer at compuer table, P35,000 lang.
Tama nga ang pangamba ng ilang opisyal ng DepEd, baka gagamitin ang pera para sa eleksyon. Alam naman natin ang anak ni Gloria Arroyo na si Dato ay tumatakbo para congressman ng unang distrito ng Camarines Sur. Si Joey Salceda, dating congressman na loyal kay Arroyo, ay tumatakbong governor. Alam naman natin na ang budget secretary ay si Rolando Andaya, dating congressman sa pwestong tinatakbuhan ngayon ni Dato.
Ito pa ang kahina-hinala. Ang pagbukas ng bidding ay dapat noong April 12, Tapos, ang delivery ay dapat sa April 20 na kaagad. Siyempre, kapag delivery labas na ang pera.
Naghuhugas kamay si Education Secretary Jesli Lapus na hindi raw dumaan sa kanya ang mamahaling package na inaprubahan ng DepEd sa Bicol. Ngunit denedepensahan pa rin niya ang project dahil kailangan naman raw talaga ng mga taga-Bicol mga paaralan ang mga computers dahil nasira nga raw ng bagyo ang kanilang mga kagamitan.
Palusot naman ni Undersecretary Ramon Bacani, DepEd undersecretary for regional operations, baka raw may mga kasamang screen o ano pang mas modernong IT equipment.
Kahit may screen, magkano ba naman yun? Hindi pa rin yun aabot ng P250,000 isang unit.
At bakit magbibigay ka ng top- of- the- line IT equipment samantalang ang kailangan nila doon ay basic equipment lang dahil nasalanta nga sila ng bagyo. Hindi pa nga naayos ang mga eskwelahan noon.
Dahil sa expose ng Inquirer, pinahinto ang pagbukas ng bids at pagkatapos na lang daw ng eleksyon. Mabuti naman. Ngunit hindi ako kampante. Baka sa ibang paraan magpalusot itong mga walang konsyensyang nilalang.
The Arroyo political think tank are again resorting to all kinds of money making so that they will have enough cold cash as the election nears. To buy votes, no other like in 2004. Not surprisingly, the activities is centered in Bicol because they would like Dato Arroyo to win at all cost. It’s a big sampal to the mother if he’s defeated.
First, we read about the return of jueteng in Camarines Sur and Albay where Joey Salceda is running as governor. Nobody is looking now because it’s the easiest source of funds. Kakampi ang mga operators, hindi huhulihin ng mga pulis. Then, there’s the 5 billion pesos funds for irrigation. And who will not forget the 1 billion pesos largesse to feed the hungry, a sizable amount earmarked to Bicol because the DBM secretary can easily do that. And now, the computers at P250,000 apiece. According to Nikki Coseteng, her school in QC bought computers at P17 thousand each. Still, we know that there are computer cheaper than that what Coseteng procured. And we wonder what are those screen for?
It’s joc-joc bolantingan all over again!
Thanks, Ellen, at nabigyan mo ng sariling thread itong isyung ito. Off-topic kasi ito sa previous threads. Nabanggit ko nga ito sa isang politiko at sabi niya, ito ang bagong modus operandi ngayon.
Kung dati ay waiting shed, basketball court at kalsada lang ang kina-katkong ng mga lokal na politiko, ngayon computers na raw ang uso. Yung public works kasi, lantad na lantad raw sa tao, hindi kayang itago. Pati cost data ng mga ganoong projects, marami na ang may alam.
Gaya ng nasabi ko sa isang thread, kakabili lang namin ng CPU units na Pentium 4 DualCore, 3GHz, Intel Chipset, 80GB, 1GB DDR for only P14,000. Kung complete set with CRT monitor, keyboard, mouse, AVR, DVD writer combo, printer, webcam, speakers, scanner, table and gaslift chair, aabot ng P32,000. Licensed Windows XP at licensed MS-Office XP, mga P15,000. Iyang presyo ko ay kung retail pa. Mas mura pag wholesale, kahit na yung software, mas mura kung license lang at hindi yung whole individual kits. Nung nagpunta si Bill Gates dito, nag-announce pa siya ng special discount para sa gobyerno. Kung dagdagan man nila ng kung anu-anong software iyan, ang average price niyan ay mga $50 retail lang.
Napigilian nga yung sa Bicol, Ellen. Pero marami nang nauna. Sa Quezon City dalawa, nang congressmen ang alam kong namudmod na ng computers na tig-P250,000 din. Marami na rin sigurong iba pang nakalusot! Yung 11 eskwelahang nawasak ng landslide sa Bicol, di pa nga nagagawa, eto’t nagmamadaling bumili ng computer!
Bakit di na lang unahin yung mga kulang na classrooms para hindi siksikan sa klase. Yung mga nagka-klase sa ilalim ng punong-mangga, sa hallways, sa gym, sa CR, saan ilalagay ang computers?
Masangsang talaga ang naaamoy ko diyan!
Ellen, totoo ba ang balitang sumirko na naman si Roilo Golez pabalik sa administrasyon?
Tongue Twisted
A cousin from Bicol emailed me about these computers and wondering where it will be installed. Like what you said, the schools are still in state of disrepair and it follows that there’s no electricity to run the computers. In one of the newspapers I read online, a picture was shown where the evacuees are still cramp in tents and complaining that the much publicized assistance Mrs. Arroyo promised when she went to Bicol is still a promise. Ang usap-usapan daw doon, the promised help will still come but it will be 2 or 3 days before elections. In exchange for their votes or else.
sleepless,
the story of our elections is as predictable as the Tagalog movies. It’s as if all politicians had all of three years to scratch their balls, ang they start working visibly only in the last month before the elections.
I visited my mom in Laguna this weekend and their mayor, who boasts of 23 years of service in his campaign poster, (that town looks the same as it did, 23 years ago!) suddenly is in working mode after many years of sleep that the road from the town’s boundary has fresh asphalt overlay up to the vilage’s entrance, where the digging is ongoing all the way to my mom’s house. The village sports center has new roofs, even the tennis courts are freshly painted.
Banners are shouting his name as the one who made them happen.
Why can’t we hold elections every year? Maybe that will make them work more frequently, huh?
Kaliwa’t kanan ang kurakotan ang mga alipores ni Gloriang Tiyanak. Sa Fry’s HP 1.8GHz Core 2 Duo, 1GB, 320GB @$649.99=P32,000.00 kasama LCD 17″ monitor. Walang magawang matino ang mga hampas-lupang tuta ni Gloria. Pati fertilizer ini-inom. Dapat ituloy ang GO anti-corruption TV ads. Huwag matakot sa libel suits dahil baldado na si Fatso.
Ellen,
Ang sagwa talaga ng ginagawa ni Gaga. Lahat na lang ng pondo ng bayan kinukulimbat. Akala niya siguro kaniya ang kaban ng bayan bagamat itong pagpa-padding ng mga transaksyon ay dati nang gawa ng mga salbahe.
TongueT
I know your suggestion to hold yearly election is out of frustration because of the present political system resulting to some unforgettable politicians being elected. But there are some who are also doing well and appropriately recgnized. In Laguna where you said your mother is residing, one outstanding mayor is George Estregan Ejercito who used to play kontrabida in the movies. He’s multi-awarded in local gov’t level. The municipal govt has a website where we can read everything about the town.
But the problem at hand is the misgovernance in the national level which should be replaced first. Skeptics will advance that a new dispensation will be just the same but we Filipinos always look forward that the best will come out in every elections and that’s way we are pinning our hopes to a new breed of politicians who might have the foresight for meaningful reforms. That’s why people travel to their hometown, to the provinces which is some sacrifice to go to the polling places to cast their votes. That’s why OFWs register in the absentee voting to be able to vote but given the chance, they actually want to go home to vote.
And it’s the same reason why I’m flying home soon to vote even it is only one vote. It may make a difference.
Maganda itong pagbubulgar na ginawa ng Inquirer. Itong role na ito ng media ang dapat para madiscourage ang malawakang anomalya sa gobyerno. Sana may follow-up report kung ano na ang nangyari sa mga nangagsibili na sa ganoong halaga? Defenitely, overpricing ito. Anong say ng COA at DepEd? May makakasuhan kaya? Ngayon, kung despite na naibulgar ito, at walang mangyaring kasuhan, abah, nakakasawa na ang mga ganitong balita.
Kitamokitako: Ngayon, kung despite na naibulgar ito, at walang mangyaring kasuhan, abah, nakakasawa na ang mga ganitong balita.

Mabagal kasi ang due process sa Pilipinas lalo na ngayong pati pulis nasa ilalim ng mga kriminal, at iyong mga nasa hustisya ay mga kaibigan ng mag-asawang ganid. Kaya walang lutas iyan kundi sa pamamagitan ng isang pag-aaklas, halimbawa ng hindi pagboto kahit na kanino sa mga tuta ni Mr. and Mrs. Pidal ngayong eleksyon. PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
Tignan natin kung may sapat nang karunungan (intelligence) ang mga pilipino. Kung wala, sila rin ang may kasalanan kung bakit nakakatagal ang mga kumag na iyan. Ang dali namang patalsikin kung tutuusin. Kaya lang niloloko pa ng mga pilipino ang mga sarili nila sa pangangatwiran ng tungkol sa due process of law gayong iyong mismo administrasyon ay hindi naman marunong sumunod sa batas.
Tinapakan na nga ang Saligang Batas ng bansa e. Bakit hindi makita ng lahat ang pambababoy na iyan. Iyon ngang Justice Secretary, hindi naman confirmed pero kung umasta akala mo kaniya na iyong Kagawaran ng Hustisya.
Kawawang bansa!
Iyong mga OFW, paki-check ang mga padded OAV list. Dito sa Hapon, ipinapa-check namin ngayon sa Immigration kung sinu-sino na ang wala namang prueba na pumasok sa Japan dahil pami-pamilya pa ang nakalista sa listahang inilabas ng Comelec. Noong 2004, nakadaya nga na kunyari na-deviate sa Pilipinas ang mga boto at ibinalik sa Japan. Nice try! Nabisto sa simple arithmetic ang ginawa nila. Sayang nga lang at namatay si FPJ at hindi naituloy ang reklamo niya tungkol sa padded list ng mga botante. Pati walang kaluluwa (literally speaking) at hindi pa ipinapanganak sa mundo nakalista sa totoo lang. Ang dali kasing gawan ng birth certificate sa NCSO. Kaya siguro pinaparusahan ng tadhana ang Pilipinas dahil sa mga kalokohang pinaggagawa ng mga nakaupo doon.
Laking bagay talaga itong blog ni Ellen. Pagpalain ka nawa ng Panginoon, Ellen!
Sleepless said; “Another Bolantingan” according to Sherlock Holmes’ magnifying glass that I borrowed I am seeing a pattern in here, Al Capone joining Bonnie and Clyde and it is another Joc. The cast of character of Salceda, Lapuz and Datu directed by Gloria is a revival story of Ali Baba. Corruption become the way of their lives. They need to raise a lot of money for Datu’s vested interest to fund his campaign, he need to bribe in order to win, he need to reward his supporters and greases his squeaking political machineries. If Datu don’t win, Salceda and Lapuz don’t care, they have a ton of money to pilfer their way on a comfortable retirement.
Bolante rewritten story again, We become a victim of their corruption practices, Corruption in her government is perceived to be pervasive, creating a culture of lawlessness and lack of credibility and trust. Her appointing of cabinet members and a person to run the military are politicized and not circumcised (Tuli) and full of conflict of interest. Criminals and rent-seeking and extortionist authorities are often the sole beneficiaries of the game. Datu is not a Bicolano! The people in Bicolandia must teach him a lesson by giving him only a hundred votes, delete his name in your screen.Make Mabulo happy.—-Remember this is another computer scam–
I have a Dell P.C.delivered to my door at around 60 thousand pesos, including 15 % “evat” and that is Pentium D dual core processors XP Media Centre edition and a 20″ Digital Monitor with sound blaster audio system. wow, a 250 thousands p.c. must be gold plated components.
Usually public schools should get their p.c. from donations from Big corporations who are replacing their systems. That’s how most schools get their IT equipment and the companies can claim them as charitable donations for the the income tax purposes. But then again, many companies own by these Politicians may use the programs as another trick to again take advantage of the benefits. just can’t win against these experts….
You bet. Those computers need not be new. The truth is that models before 2000 can work forever, just need to change once in a while some chips to keep up with the trend. Otherwise, they are better. It is the models after 2002 that are susceptible especially to destructive viruses, bugs and worms, and need to be replaced with new computers.
I, myself, have so far donated more than 10 computers to the Philippines. I have two now waiting to be delivered to a designated recipient. I have another being tapped for use by some judge in the Philippines. I have already asked our city hall to give me some of those being turned in there for recycle. I just pay for the delivery cost. So, why does this government have to buy expensive computers when it can even ask for old computers from donors overseas without any unnecessary cost on the impoverished Philippine government—impoverished because of the nakaw! 🙁
Sa totoo lang gusto lang kasi kumurakot! I wonder how much is Lapus involvement in this shady deals! I am disappointed to hear of this. Dapat hindi na siya sumasabit diyan lalo na ngayong iisipin ng mga tao na kaya siya pumayag na maging Education Secretary ay gusto na rin niyang makakurakot dahil last term na niya as Congressman.
Ganyan din ang binalak ni Mrs. Pidal na gawin noong panahon ni Roco kaya siguro napilitan si Roco na mag-quit bago siya makagawa ng mabuti sa Department of Education noong kauupo pa lang ni Pandak between 2001-2002.
Sa totoo lang maraming donation for education ang kinurakot ni Mrs. Pidal, isa na iyong hindi na makitang donation ng Coke.
Ewan ko lang kung alam ninyo ang kinokolekta niyan na mga donations from OFWs na tinatawag nilang para sa “Classroom ni Gloria” Dito nga lang sa Japan maliit ang 5 million yen na naibigay na sa ungas ng mga OFWs dito. Kukulekta na naman iyan pagdating dito sa May pihado.
Yayaman nga ang mga Pidal. Ang laki ng tiba nila sa mga pilipinong kung bakit naman ang hilig magtanga-tangahan!
Vic,
Ang mahal ng computer mo. I got a new Dell PC delivered likewise to my door just recently with 160 GB hard disk and 19-inch LCD monitor and with Vista OS, 1GB RAM, multi-media player, etc. for less than 640 dollars or about 32,000 pesos. There are others priced at a little over 300 dollars as a matter, all brand new. Dapat mas mura ang alok sa gobyerno dahil maramihan ang bili. Iyong 250,000 pesos na computer for some school use lang ay tunay na highway robbery! Wala silang niloko sa totoo lang!
Who’s fooling who? We all know that computer prices are on bargain nowadays, it depend on the brand and quality. But, to buy a single computer for the price of P250,000 and that’s equivalent to &5,000 is not only a highway robbery but, a bank robbery as well. They are a fool, fooling themselves.
Let us analyze this situation, giving computers to our elementary school students is noble, to enhance their learning, they can explore the wonders and almost everything. But, how can they learn to use this electronic device? Oh yeah! It’s an employment opportunity. Giving them computer we need also an expert to train them.600 computers,600 teachers. Eureka! Eureka!
Now, I know why a single computer cost a quarter million of pesos, teacher’s included. Hehehe!
Off topic but since this computer robbery has also something to do with the election, I may just as well blurt it out here.
I just got a note from a friend regarding the refusal of Abalos of the Comelec to release the list of partylists publicly even when in fact election has begun overseas. Worse is when a lot many of the people I know in the list of voters are being disenfranchised. So, I told a friend to get a copy of the old list, show her ID and tell the Philippine Embassy to allow her to vote.
Buti na lang hindi ako bumoboto kasi kung ako ang kaibigan ko baka nagmuryot na ako!!! Hindi kasi ako pumapayag na niloloko ako. Ke sihuda kung gobyerno ang kalaban ko basta alam ko ang batas at nasa katwiran ako!
What is disgusting is to hear of the fingerpointing to the Bayan Muna, Anakpawis, Gabriela, etc. as not worthy to vote for because these partylists have pending cases in the court even when everybody knows it is not the partylists but individuals representing the partylists mentioned that are now being wrongfully charged in Philippine court and bled dry paying undue court fees and bails!!!
Puede ba, patalsikin na, now na! Nakakasawa nang pakinggan at makita ang pagmumukhani Pandak sa TV.
Mga magnanakaw talaga ang gobyernong ito!
Kawawa naman kaming ordinaryong Pilipino.
Tongue, re your question:”Ellen, totoo ba ang balitang sumirko na naman si Roilo Golez pabalik sa administrasyon?”
This is Rep. Golez’ text message last Friday, April 13:
It could have been a Computer Scam naman had it not been aborted when a whistleblower at DepEd tipped Inquirer on the done deal. Like the Fertilizer Scam where Jocjoc Bolante acted bypassing the DA Dept. Secretary, this time if we are to believe DepEd Secretary Lapus, the transaction was made in the regional level and without his knowledge, na naman. The striking similarity is glaring. Although aborted, it was clear in the Inquirer editorial that the release was made by DBM Secretary Rolando Andaya Jr. who signed Special Allotment Release Order BO7-0277 covering the P150-million fund for Bicol last February. Andaya is a former congressman from the district Dato Arroyo is running as congressman,
I’ve done some online reading and found out that there’s plenty talaga of money for Dato Arroyo which would now include all other administration candidates in Bicol otherwise they will make angal and blow the whistle, too.
The controvcrsial DepEd Regional Director Celedonio Layon, Jr. announced that Malacanang approved the release of P1.214 billion for the rehabilitation of school buildings in Bicol and construction is being “rushed” for the June school opening. “This P1.214 billion fund is on top of the earlier P207 million we already received last December 2006 from the national government,” Layon explained.
Hmmm..

Kaibigan,iyang administration ni punggok ang nagpapahirap sa mga ordinaryong Pilipino.Kaliwa’t kanan at pati na harapan at patalikod ang nakawan,ano ang maaasahan?
Corruption,corruption and much corruption is a pervasive problem in her administration kahit itanong pa natin kay Lacson. They are an active Mafia-type organizations but,Of Course! Alam na natin kung sino ang God father. Let’s start with the customs department, they commonly take bribes to facilitate the traffic of fake goods from China, especially of those illegal in nature, like imitation of Del Monte, Maling, Dove and Coffee Mate products. These is also serious tax evasion.It is ironic,that this little size shoe president is completely blind or takot lang siya kay Esperon para mahuli ang mga sindikatong ito.Her governance have revealed how deeply infects all levels of the government,her economic policies proved weak indeed kahit naging classmate pa niya si Clinton.
Yes,Paquito kawawa tayong mga ordinaryong Pilipino because,corruption can be particularly harmful to the growth of our economy.Agree ka ba sa Akon? Talk uli tayo kung ano ang solution para masugpo ang kurap-kurap-kurap!
Ellen:
Here’s something that your investigative reporters at Malaya can report on—the astericks on candidates that are either being made to look controversial for or against the Unano. In case the GO people do not know yet, there are tow astericks after the name of Alan Peter S. Cayetano with notation that he is “subject to pending disqualification case docketed at SPA 07-023”!
Wow, unbelievable talaga ang eleksyon sa Pilipinas. Ididisqualify pala bakit pa tinatanggap ang mga application for candidacy? Ano iyan babuyan?
All the partylists of the groups of Satur Ocampo, et al are subject to pending cases in court. Mapapamura ka sa inis sa totoo lang. Hindi ba nahihiya ang mga inutil na iyan na puro kagagaguhan ang pinaggagawa? Asan ang hustisya diyan? Tsina-challenge ba ni Pandak ang mga taumbayan na magrebolusyon at lumaban na ng patayan sa mga sundalong kanin ni Assperon? Huwag siyang magmalaki kasi ang mga wala ng katwiran ay kailanman ay hindi nagwawagi! Mamamayani pa rin ang mga taumbayan lalo na kung maghihirap pa sila ng husto!
To SS and other supporters of PEP Coalition:
Please be informed that it is one of the partylists being noted by Comelec as subject to court order (disqualification of its representative more like it although its instruction is stated vaguely no doubt to confuse and deceive) in case it gets elected with 5 astericks and thsi note, “subject to pending case docketed as SPP 07-010.” Ini-ingles pa kaya hindi maintindihan noong mga wala namang alam sa ingles at batas!!! Majority of the voters for instance in Japan are high school drop outs sa totoo lang.
Salamat “Inquirer” tunay kang palaban, so ito ang pahayagan na kinasusuklaman ni FG Mike Aroyo. Recently, kinasuhan niya ng libelo ang patnugot nito at mga kasamang reporters. Bakit kaya kriminal ang turing ni FG Mike Aroyo sa media na nagsasabi ng katotohanan? Totoong napakairap maging media sa Plilipinas, ang isang paa’y nasa hukay.
Sa isang Democratic na bansa, tulad ng Pilipinas, kung saan ang pagsasabi ng Totoo o ang pag-expose ng isang anomalya ay isang Mortal na Kasalanan, maasahan nating marami pang mga katulad nitong computer projects ang madediskubrehan lalo na ngayong election. Magpasalamat ang mga taong bayan kung may mga “conscienced individuals” na mag-tip off sa media. Salamat din sa Inquirer na hindi takot ibulgar ang katiwalian!
Kaya nga galit ang mga taga-Malakanyang sa mga campaign TV ads about corruption! Dapat talagang ipagpatuloy ang pagpalabas nito at ng magkalakas loob ang mga taong labanan ang di lang peke kundi korap pang administration ni Tianak!
mabuti na lang talaga at nadikubre ng mas maaga kundi naku naman talaga!! dapat bantayan pa rin yan kahit tapos na eleskyon…

Since time immemorial, itong DECS ay isa sa pinaka-corrupt na sangay ng gobyerno. Parating may overpricing, mostly books and supplies. Hindi nga ba may ibinulgar din si Sen Lacson a few months ago tungkol din sa overpricing at dummy bidding ng mga books, na may report na marami pa ngang mali sa history part. Ang mahirap, madali lang magbulgar pero walang follow through. Panay umpisa, at wala namang mga tuldok. Que sera, sera Pinas.
Pasakop na lang kaya muna ang Pilipinas sa isang maunlad at may matinong leader na bansa, at ng magkaroon ng total eradication ng mga corrupt. Tama na muna ang mga pride, dahil hindi makakain ng mga tao iyan. Tutal itong rehimen ni Glue ay matagal ng binalasubas ang mga ipinundar ng ating mga heroes. Desperate suggestion lang naman ito, dahil parang walang matanaw na sinag beyond the horizon for the beloved Pinas.

Sasabihin ko sa iyo ang dahilan. Hindi dahil sa walang magtutuloy kundi iyong nagreklamo kundi takutin tuluyan nang pinapatay. Saan ka tatakbo? Iyong mismong sumbungan kakutsa ng mga kriminal na nakaupo kaya nga ang pag-asa na lang ay iboto ang mga matitino at isa na diyan si Sonny Trillanes na alam kung ano ang kurakutang nangyayari sa gobyerno ni Unano. Iyan ang hindi na matatakot dahil 4 na taon nang tinatakot pero hindi pa rin mabuwag.
Mabuhay si Trillanes! Sakit ng Pilipinas, si Trillanes ang lunas!
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!
Php250,000 ha? That’s almost $5,000+ USD. Wow, di kaya buong Internet Cafe Shop ang ibibigay bawat estudyante?
Sorry, this should read, “Iyong mismong sumbungan KAKUTSABA ng mga kriminal!” Pareparehong parang mga hoodlum! Kawawang mga pilipino!
Agree ako sa sinabi mo Yuko. Wala ngang mapagsumbungan na matino, dahil, kung magimbestigasyon ang pinagsumbungan mo, sila naman ang mag-harass duon sa isinusumbong mo, hangang mabigyan din sila ng parte sa kurakot. Para ngang walang pagasa na.
Dagdagan ko iyon sinabi ko na pasakop na lang tayo. Tutal, marami sa Pinoy ang gustong mangibang bansa, dalhin na lang ang ibang bansa sa Pinas, para lahat makinabang. LIfe is too short, dapat lahat mabigyan ng chance na makalasap ng masarap na buhay. Ang mga pinoy ay matagal ng ginogoyo ng Glue regime. Kapag nagoyo at makalusot na naman siya sa pandaraya ngayong election, give this suggestion a thought.
‘yan na nga ba ang sinasabi ko noong italaga ‘yang si jesli lapuz bilang kalihim ng edukasyon. galamay din ‘yan ni gloria, aasahan nating maiiba?
sa umpisa lamang ay magpapadama, kapag nasa home base na, sige na ang arangkada!
meron bang pagbabago sa sistema ng edukasyon? hindi ba’t sa kabila ng animo’y sirit ng kuwitis na pag-imbulog ng pagtataas ng matrikula ay mababa pa rin ang kalidad ng pagtuturo? walang matitinong gamit sa eskuwelahan. kulang ang silid aralan. ipinanghihingi ng limos ang mga kailangan upang magkaroon lamang ng maayos na kagamitan ang mga mag-aaral samantalang meron namang pondong nakalaan na ang masaklap nga lamang ay sa bulsa ng mga kurakot napupunta!
post ko sa kabila, puwede rin siguro dito:
matapos ang mahabang pagninilay at pagsusuri sa aking magiging kapasiyahan, naisip kong bigyan ng pagkakataon ang mga isinusuka at sinasabi nating mga kandidatong balimbing at hindi karapatdapat sa ating pagtitiwala upang mapatunayan nila ang kanilang katapatan sa paglilingkod sa bayan. naisip ko rin na baka nadadala lamang tayo ng sobrang galit natin kay gloria arroyo at pati sila ay nadadamay gayung hindi naman dapat sapagkat ang kasalanan ni juan ay hindi dapat pagdusahan ni pedro.
sa aking pagboto kanina, isinulat ko ang mga pangalan nina singson, oreta, sotto, angara, defensor, pichay, pangilinan, arroyo, zubiri, montano, kiram, at magsaysay.
para akong nabunutan ng tinik sa dibdib at lumuwag ang aking pakiramdam sapagkat napatunayan ko sa aking sarili na hindi nga dapat pairalin ang silakbo ng galit at sa halip ay pairalin ang tamang katwiran sabay takbo sa kubeta at hinulog ang papel kong pinagsulatan sapagkat alam kong doon lamang sila nababagay. sila ang mga subok nang walang tibay tayong maaasahan!
talagang hindi ko kayang lokohin ang aking sarili sapagkat wala akong nararamdaman kahit katiting mang simpatiya sa mga katulad nilang hindi na marunong magsawa sa panlilinlang ng ating paniniwala at ang pinaiiral ay ang pansariling nasa gayung sa loob ng mahabang panahong ipinamalagi nila sa dati nilang mga posisyon ay dapat nagawa na ang dapat nilang isinagawa.
Reyna Elena:
“..di kaya buong Internet Cafe Shop ang ibibigay bawat estudiante?..ha,ha,ha!
Eh, paano kung ‘yung mga kriminals na ‘yon ang mag-ooperate ng mga Internet shops at pababayarin pa ang mga pobreng estudiante? Di ba “twin scam ang labas?”
Masisisi ba natin ang ating mga magagaling na teachers na maghanap na rin ng jobs abroad?
Kaya…gisingin na natin ang ating mga kababayan…kailan pa nila lagyan ng PERIOD ang panlilinlang sa kanila ni Tianak?
Gusto ba nilang uulit-ulitin na lang ang Bolantingan tuwing may pagkakagastahan ang Tianak ng Malakanyang?
Falling social services allocations
A closer look at the increased allocations in social services is also revealing. The “increase” is mainly found in a seemingly generous 46.2 percent increase in social security, welfare and employment spending: from P40.1 billion in 2005 to P58.6 billion in 2006. But two-fifths (41.1 percent) of this budget goes just to the pensions and gratuities of the 150,000-strong Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP). Moreover, P10 billion is going to “retirement benefits” for tens of thousands of government employees who are going to be retrenched next year.
Furthermore, education and health spending have actually declined in real terms. Compared to 2001 levels, real spending in 2006 on education will be 4.5 percent lower and on health 19.2 percent lower. Increasing population growth has also cut into per capita spending. The Department of Education (DepEd) per capita budget per public school student, for example, has fallen from P6,007 per enrollee in 2001 to P4,782 per enrollee in 2006, or a 20 percent decrease.
The DepEd also estimates that there will be a need for an additional 10,549 classrooms, 1.2 million chairs, 67 million textbooks, and 12,131 teachers in 2006, which they already foresee will not be met by the 2006 budget.
ano pa kaya ang maituturong tama ng mga tagapagyabong ng edukasyon at kultura sa gayong ang kanilang sangay mismo ay inaanay na at nabubulok sa makorapsyong sistema?
Just to let you know I decided to post this on Cyber Istambayan too, hopefully encourage those who see it will do the same….. VOTE.
Akbayan has put up a site BARE THE LIST – A SUBMISSION SITE FOR BOGUS PARTY LIST NOMINEES (lets do our part be vigilant and if you know any of those bogus candidate nominees submit their names at Akbayan’s site)

Walang pagsusumbungan kaya panahon na para magkaroon ng mga taong gagawa ng paraan. Bakit kailangan pasakop sa mga dayuhan? Iyan ang isang malaking kaululan. Bakit akala mo ba para sa mga pilipino ang gagawin ng mga dayuhan sa bansa nila? Iyan ang isang kahibangan. I hope hindi ganyan ang utak ng mga tao noong sinakop ng mga kastila, amerikano at hapon ang Pilipinas. Gusto palagi kasing may kasunong sa problema. Hindi lutasin ang problema ng bayan na hindi nagmumulestiya sa iba! Tignan mo tuloy ang labas ng Pilipinas—baon sa utang!!!

ARMM gov pledges P1M to mayors for TU 12-0 win

Jing Lapus is either not in control of the DepEd for not knowing what is going on in his department, or he is merely covering up the anomalous transaction by defending the project.
P250k computer set for elementary and highschool students? Absurd!
Even if the price is P100k each, it’s still very unreasonable and outrageous.
SecDepEd’s denial about the project is a lie. When it involves more than P50M procurement, it requires a Department level approval or indorsement from the top. A regional director cannot enter into a P150 million contract unless they resorted to ‘splitting’ of purchase orders which is highly illegal too. Much more if they resorted to direct-contracting which is highly irregular for common line items like computers.
All govt procurements are and must be included and approved in the prior-year(s) prepared Procurement Plan (PP) which is then integrated into the National Budget Plan.
The National Budget Plan comprises the Personnel Services (PS)- e.g. govt salaries; Maintenance Operating and Other Expense (MOOE)- e.g. PP etc; and Capital Outlay (CO) – e.g. heavy equipment, land, devt etc.
When approved by the Congress and signed by the President into law, this will become the General Appropriations Act (GAA)
And by the way, NO govt procurement would be realized if COA had disallowed it.
Conclusion:
Jesli Lapus, like the COA, knew it from the start. He knew it’s highly irregular and illegal. He knew he is accountable. He knew he just can’t resist his boss(es) request.
Assumption:
The proceeds of the project might be used for election purposes.
Yes, just who are they kidding with all these silly procurements especially when everybody knows that even the Fatso is engaged in peddling various projects to be funded with government money despite the economic crisis and with assurance of everybody padding the bills to fill up their pockets?
A friend whose uncle is a governor in a province in the Philippines told me so.
On the other hand, why should Jesli allow himself to be snared into this mess? He does not even have to worry of losing the race for his province if he runs, which he is not doing at all because his term is over.
So, if he is indeed in cahoot with the Malacanang robbers, he must be thinking now of fattening his pockets in preparation for his retirement. Suka, suka, suka!
In fact, what this government should have been doing is have a bureau to collect all those recycled computers like what our ward offices and city halls for instance do. Old computers, etc. are collected for a fee. If you take the computer to the city hall, they pay you 500 yen, and they overhaul the computers for use in schools, etc. without the government spending much on these computers being used in schools to avoid criticisms by the media and concerned citizens. Hindi kasi nakakalusot ang ganyan sa mga taumbayan dito. It is in fact a matter of civic duty and responsibility. Hindi dapat pinapalampas ang mga ganyang pang-aabuso.
Ellen,
In May 2001, Coke donated 5M pesos supposed to the Department of Education but the cheque was handed to the Unano. Roco did not receive it for he never mentioned anything about it, and rather than be criticized for how his department was being run and meddled with, he resigned before he could do anyything. Question is where is the money now? I’m askin for clarification even when actually I have already received some tips as to where it was siphoned to! Pwe!
Magno:
Ano? Inuulit na naman ni Unano ang patubig niya. Ganya din ang ginawa niyang pangloloko noong nakaraan eleksyon. Biro mo naglagay kunyari ng poso doon sa squatter area para iboto siya ng mga squatter doon. Tapos namigay ng pera para sa isang photo op na akala mo talagang bilib na bilib ang mga beneficiary ng poso doon. Kaso, nakunin din ng video ng isang hapon ang mga tao doon na sabi pa, “Iboboto namin si FPJ!” Kaya doon panalo si FPJ kahit na naglagay ng poso si Unano with government funds.
Dapat talaga ipinapatigil iyang pangungurakot ni Unano ng pera ng bayan para sa kandidatura ng mga tuta niya. Bawal niya. Electioneering ang tawag sa ginagawa niya, papaanong nakakalusot iyan! Ang bobo naman ng abogado ng Comelec!!! Hindi alam ang ibig sabihin ng electioneering na sila rin mismo ang gumagawa!!! Pambihira!
ito na nga ang sinasabi ko..talagang kahit 0.001% ay hindi dapat pagkatiwalaan ang mga buhong na mga kabit ng EK…ang bicol, dati kahit isang politiko hindi nila pinapansin ang area na ito, kasi nga quiet ang pangungurakot pinangungunahan na ni villabuwitre at eghead lagayman…o ngayon, buking lalo si eghead sa kababuyan nya re the shady deal as well with DENR..hindi lang itong DEP-Ed deal na ito ng mga puro ghost deals..wla lang kasing ibang umiimik as heads will start rolling again. a little off-topic but related in a way, we jst heard about the expired medicines jst a few days ago and they have a sacrificial lamb na. i dont knw if the implicated officer is lying or telling the truth but isnt it too obvious!!!!
my mom is from bicol and the only time i remmber vaguely having a nice ride on the train going to bicol when i was around 12 years old. after tht i experienced enduring trips as long as 9-10 hours just reaching Daet Camarines Norte (which is by the way anti-tyanak country kaya hindi sila pinapansin and is NPA infested, u will never knw kung ang katabi mo sa jeep ay taga-loob or taga labas hehehe)…the 7hour trip was only reached during the time between fvr and erap era after which,a main highway was directed going tru Camarines Sur now. Camarines Norte is just being by-passed…underdeveloped, over-shadowed, the quiet old politikos in the town are mostly the padilla clan (robin padilla’s clan)..but having been “independent” and being neglected all this time, it has survived thru the times…
ow come on!!!! the patubig hooplah is ancient history. kahiya hiya ang pagbibida ng mga politikong ito lalo na si pandak – if ever they are claiming they ae the ones who made the patubig in parts of the metropolis or even in any part of the country. having been connected to a company who started to properly start-up the logistics of maynilad re-installation, retrofitting of the aged and pre-war pipes around the metro, it was never the govt’s money but was a BOT project with french bank group and lopez group…but..but…but….as th rest is history, pandak came to the picture, the black magic wand started to siphon the meaty projects around starting with NAIA3, MRT3,4,the NorthRail, SouthRail, SLEX now..then the water projects, the IPP projects…u name it, they have it…
so u see, anong patubig nya! PWEEEEEE!!!!!! LEche sya!!!!! i am sure the new stakeholders of these water projects are busy campaigning a well…
you can get a 35k acer laptop brandnew/built-in dvd-crw drive, blue-tooth, usb et al…sabi nga ng isang blogger dito, baka buong internet shop ang ibibigay sa student..i think kasama pa ang dsl connection for maybe 10 years?!!!?!??
ginagawa talga nilang tanga t mangmang ang mga pinoy…ito namang mga taga sulat nila talagang hindi na natuto…walang ka-utak utak sa mga pinag-re-release nila…hahahaha..am sure the source is now being hunted by the minions of pandak…
Yuko..the brigaders are really coming from the mountains with IQ of maybe 10….
galing sa isang makulit:
sa ilalim ng administrasyon ni gloria makapal arroyo, ang manindigan sa matuwid na isinisigaw ng prinsipyo ay isang krimeng ang katumbas ay higit pa sa bitay ang kaparusahan. ang sinumang sumuway sa baluktot niyang pamamalakad ay hindi bibigyan ng pagkakataong mapalaganap ang pagsisiwalat ng katiwalian at tinatapalan kaagad ng walang habas na kasinungalingan. naglisaw na ang mga uod sa bulok na sistema ay sasabihin pang bumabango at sumasariwa sa kabila ng umaalingasaw na katiwalian, patunay ang walang pakundangang mga paglabag sa karapatan ng bawat mamamayan.
15 April 2007
Ms. Ellen,
PLease take a look at the housing agencies, they too have a lot money taht they can dispense off.
prans
Ms. Ellen, ang kailangan ng mga mag-aaral sa Bicol ay mga silid-aralan na mayroon mga upuan at maliwanag na ilaw. Ang mga apo nga ng kapit-bahay ko ay nandoon pa sa kanila hanggang ngayon matapos ang kalunus-lunos na nangyari sa bayan nila sa Naga, Bicol noong nakaraan.
Sobra namang panggagago sa mga mamamayan ang ipinalabas ng Dept. of Education na pagbili ng 600 computers sa halagang PnP150 milyon. Anong klase ng computer ang magkakahalaga ng PnP250,000 bawat isa? Ang sabi nga ni TonGuE-tWisTeD sa kabilang thread ay aabutin lang ng humigit kumulang PnP32,000 at mayroon ng medyo top-of-the-line desktop pc. Akala siguro ng mga tauhan ni Tiyanak sa Dept of Education at Dept of Budget & Management ay makakalusot sila at maging isang “fertizer scam” na naman ito at tatawagin na “computer scam”.
Mabuti nga at tumahimik na si AngTenga deVenecia tungkol sa kanyang pagtatanim ng 1 billion trees.
Grabe ang “makinarya sa election” nitong administrasyon ni Tiyanak – puro pera na galing sa katiwalian!
Ano ba naman yang panloloko na naman na gagawin ng gobyerno. Aba eh talaga namang parang pera nila ang nilulustay ah. Ang binabayad nating EVat eh sa pangungurakot lang naman talaga napupunta. Baka naman may kakaibang function yang mga computers na iyan. Baka “nakakapagpatalino” ng mga mag-aaral! Hehehe!
At dahil sa sobrang saklap ng dinadanas natin dahil sa EVat ni Ralph Recto, ang mga Pinoy lalo na ang mgamahihirap, eh pwedeng ding tawaging “E-Vat VICTIMS”!!!
Spy,
Re “SecDepEd’s denial about the project is a lie. When it involves more than P50M procurement, it requires a Department level approval or indorsement from the top.

Absolutely…. Itong si Jesli (btw, cabalen ni Gloria yan even if he’s from Tarlac) talaga naman – kurakot pa rin.
When Angie Reyes took over as CSAFP in 1999, Jesli Lapus used to accompany Reyes to all business meeting with foreign suppliers, joining him for dinners with them in 5-star hotels, etc. (They were classmates at the AIM.)
Lapus was the point man. He was already a congressman then and would make sure that foreign suppliers were informed that HE was the point man meaning the local pinoy agents of these foreign suppliers wwould have to go through him.
Jesli was a “FIXER” in other words.
I met Jesli when he was president of Landbank in 1994 or 95(he was trying to get the account of the company I was working for then but I absolutely refused even when his girlfriend then who happened to be a friend of mine tried to intervene on his behalf.)
I never trusted him. He’s very close to Ed Vaca, one of the ‘more successful’ local Pinoy agents in Pinas dealing with defence; Vaca is a Pinoy-Spanish bloke (very close to Aurora Pijuan) who enabled Angie Reyes to MAKE LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY before Angie left DND.
Ma’m AdbBrux
You’re right, Sec. Lapus cannot feign ignorance to the controversial computer transaction entered into by the DepED Bicol Area Regional Director who is supposed to be one telephone call away. I think they were ordered to make gaya the Fertilizer Scam, conniving with the Budget Secretary and the political bigwigs in the area. notably,
This Computer Scam is specifically for Dato Arroyo but with sizable slice of the pie to Villafuerte, Lagman and Salceda who are all running as Congressman and some barya-barya to other administration bets in the area para walang maghudas (sa ngayon). In national level, they are doing everything so that the opposition will not gain ground in this political battle, otherwise it will mean disaster to all of these sitting officials, from Mrs. Arroyo down the line. They are now shuddering with the thought of being prosecuted. But unlike what they are doing now, they will be given their day in the court with humane treatment they denied to the perceived enemies of the administration especially the poor soldiers.
Sinabi mo pa, Anna, kaya doon sa egroup ko panay ang banat ko para alam ni Jesli hindi ako puedeng lokohin. Babanatan ko siya kapag napatunayan kong may anomalya siya.
Dito sa Japan, pinaglakad ko iyan kasama si Teddy Boy Locsin. I can drive but not in Japan. Mahirap ang parking. Lakad naman sila!

Tama po kayo, hindi lang sa institusyon makikita ang karunungan. Just to think of it, a young cadet officer, trained and disciplined for years in a prestigious military academy, after graduation he/she will serve a bogus/corrupt/un-discipline government, what a paradox. This is the weird reality in our society. For me, it is the right political consciousness that counts. It is not enough that you accomplished a learning with flying colors, but what matter most is, in which political system you will hold on.
Sa totoo lang, marami akong napulot na tamang karunungan sa gitna ng kalsada. Marami akong nabasang tamang logico sa mga placards.
Ellen,
Please also confirm if it’s true that the GSIS sold its San Miguel shares with Mr. Winston Garcia saying that they need the money to “invest in other more profitable enterprise”.
Ano kaya yung “…other more profitable enterprise”?
Like bankrolling a political campaign, perhaps?
@#@$%#^&&* arf arf rectum ‘yan! pinagtatanggol pa ni vilma santos sa pagpapasa ng kulimbat law na nakabubuti daw sa kabuhayan ng bansa at napagkukunan ng pondo para mga pagawaing bayan samantalang ang tanging inang gloria lamang ang nakikinabang.
lintek, magburles dancing queen ka na lang, vilma.
ito namang kiko pangilinan, bulok ang istayl na pati mga anak ay ginagawang indorser sa kanyang mga kasinungalingan! yawa! kung tunay na mahalaga ang pamilya sa gunggong na ‘yan, aba’y mag-alaga na lamang siya ng kanyang mga anak dahil wala siyang nagawang matino para sa taong bayan!

Mrivera:
hindi lang si okik pangilinan ang gumamit ng pamilya at mga anak sa panganampanya.
ang dapat natin tuligsain dito ay ang mga PR firm na nagtutulak ng mga ganitong klaseng advertisement.
ganon din si Noynoy at Koko Pimentel na kinailangan pang isama ang imahe ng mga magulang sa pangangampanya sa telebisyon.
kung hindi ito bankrupt sa pulitika, ano ang tawag dito?
ANG MGA PR FIRM NA ITO ANG SIYANG NAGTUTULAK SA MAMAMAYANG PILIPINO NA LALONG MAGING CORRUPT!

AdbBrux:
Did we miss the third man? I think it’s Jesli-Angie-Regis tandem. Regis Romero is the owner of R II builders. They all made LOTS of money when before Angie left the AFP and DND. Regis also got the Payatas project among others. He is an FVR boy too.
Is that so, Spy?
Pardon my ignorarance but I don’t know and didn’t know about Regis Romero. Never met him on the occassions I met with Angie Reyes and Jesli Lapus.
The latter, partners in crime as they were (or are) were usually the only two hustlers around on those occassions.
Sleepless,
I believe you are absolutely spot on: “This Computer Scam is specifically for Dato Arroyo but with sizable slice of the pie to Villafuerte, Lagman and Salceda who are all running as Congressman…”
I have no physical evidence that Jesli is part and parcel of the computer scam but given his predilection for “cuts”, I wuldn’t be surprised if he was.
Ellen,
What a relief! I thought Golez has sold out in exchange for his congressional post. I know from months back there would be complications because his son Rico was often seen with Mayor Jun Bernabe, at one point he was even considered the future admin candidate against Roilo.
Golez should either remain independent or stick with the opposition when he wins again. Good luck to him. And thanks, Ellen, for the reply.
MEMO TO: Mrivera
MEMO FROM: TonGuE-tWisTeD, On behalf of Phil. Embassy
SUBJECT: Shitless disposal
Please explain within 24 hours why you should not be held accountable and sanctioned with disciplinary action for causing possible severe damage to the facilities, the property, and endangering the immediate environment, specifically the sewage system, of the Philippine Embassy when you, as you claim in your 2:52 pm post of April 15,2007:
“…sabay takbo sa kubeta at hinulog ang papel kong pinagsulatan sapagkat alam kong doon lamang sila nababagay.”
Such act, by being merely symbolic, does not merit any acclaim nor commendation. It is herewith recomended that the next time such actions are taken, make sure the real people in that list of yours are the ones that go head first into that smelly pool instead. That is where rejects actually belong.
Although all Filipinos, including the undersigned, are thankful for your misdeed, it is also unforgivable why you failed to include the name of a certain Ralph Rectum, whose name alone makes it even more appropriate to flush him deep down to the bowels of the earth, in the same fashion as you did with, as per the same post:
“singson, oreta, sotto, angara, defensor, pichay, pangilinan, arroyo, zubiri, montano, kiram, at magsaysay.”
By the way, please collect your medal from the Consul General upon submission of reply.
For your strict compliance.
Tongue;
Hehehehe! Where do I affix my signature?
Anna, Spy,
I wonder what deals Romero had with the AFP. He made a lot of money though in construction, after making the right contacts during his stint as a mere Sales Engineer with New San Jose Builders, his guerilla start-up RII cornered many juicy contracts with DPWH in Ramos’ time. The last time I saw him was at the MYC, boarding his yacth. I estimate it at around $7M. Some guys at the club even say $10M.
Wouldn’t it be interesting to check how much income tax Regis has actually paid?
Regis was the guy, who together with his girlfriend, was among those kidnapped in dos palmas by the abu sayyaf in 2001. He was the first to be released because he paid.
He made lots of money under FVR from a housing project in Smokey Mountain in Tondo. Lots of irregularities in that project too.
Regis was also the same guy who was used by Mark Jimenez to buy Manila Times from the Gokongweis. later on he opted out because Jimenez didn’t deliver his full share of the agreed amount.
Ellen,
Dapat pala tenepok na lang ng mga Abus ang taong iyan! Kung nagkataon saan kaya pupunta ang kaluluwa niya for being part of the Mafia gang holding the Filipino people by the neck!
the horrorable tongue twisting,
complying to your memo of not including the name of ralph rectum in my list of rejects, be informed that that shit is already committed in a sewage asylum and no amount of pardon can free him from detention.
yes. si regis din ang may ari ng R3 construction ek-ek…he always get the meaty projects from the gov’t. si tabaco ang lagi nyang kakabit. when he was kidnaped in dos palmas together w/his gf and daughter, they paid the abus with huge sum. the daughter goes to the same school as my daughters. she is with 2 back up vans with bodyguards most of the time. like the daughter of weirdo jules ledesma who “staged” the kidnapping of their children para mapag-usapan. even the people at makati med are not 100% believing in the story.
Mrivera,
I suggest…kasi baka mag bara ang sewerage mo since karamihan sa pinilush mo ay plastic…..Buhusan mo ng Drano Max gel…BEST AT DISSOLVING STUBBORN CLOGS….! di na babalik yan forever !
bob,
oo nga, ano? pero hindi bale, meron naman na akong hinandang declogger dito. kahit pinakamakapit na bara, LUSAW!
All entities, not just the media should expose all these anomalies! If these vultures know they are being watched, they will be more careful. The big problem is, these big time crooks know how to operate without being detected. Sila sila ang gumagawa. They set up their own dummy companies and purchase the goods from those bogus companies. How many of the big funded projects make it to full operation? Rarely any. Pag nagatasan na, iniiwan na! It is the big politicians who are the biggest crooks!
