Yesterday, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency acquired 195 new intelligence officers with the graduation of the new batch of cadets at the PDEA Academy.
In his speech before the new graduates, Parañaque Rep.Roilo Golez said they are entering a career of risk, honor, glory and high mission.
“The campaign on illegal drugs is the moral equivalent of war. It’s a tougher war than war against the NPA, the secessionist movement and the Abu Sayyaf. More than 4,000 barangays, 50 per cent of them in the National Capital Region, are effected by the menace of drugs. Seventy-five per cent of major crimes in the NCR are drug related. This is a serious public order problem,” Golez said.
Underscoring the gravity of the problem, Golez said the number of drug lords, drug dealers and pushers is bigger than the NPA, the secessionists and the ASG combined. “They have firepower, political connections, equipment. network and money. Anything that big becomes a national security concern,” he said.
Golez further said drug users consume P300-400 billion worth of illegal drugs, much more than the stimulus package being conceived by the Arroyo administration.
He urged the Department of Budget and Management to give more support to PDEA and release early the P150 million in the 2009 budget.
There’s a related story about kidnappings on the rise again in the Vera Files website. Teresita Ang See, spokesman of The Citizens Action Against Crime, said kidnappings in the country have returned to an all-time high, averaging one incident every other day.
Ang See aid CAAC has recorded a dozen kidnap-for-ransom cases from Jan. 8 to Feb. 5, four of which occurred in Metro Manila and eight in Mindanao. The figure excludes the kidnapping on Feb. 13 of Sri Lankan peace advocate Omar Jaleel by suspected Abu Sayyaf bandits.
The last time the Philippines was averaging three kidnapping incidents in a week was in certain years from 1995 to 2000, she said.
CAAC records show that 15 people have been kidnapped this year. Nearly a hundred million pesos in ransom has been demanded, of which P2.5 million has been paid. Six victims, all in Mindanao, remain in captivity.
Ang See linked the comeback of kidnap gangs, especially in Mindanao, to the huge ransom payments recently paid by several families of victims.
She said the Abu Sayyaf Group, which seized three International Red Cross workers in Sulu on Jan. 15 and three Filipino teachers in Zamboanga on Jan. 23, has been joined by members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and smaller gangs in perpetrating the kidnappings in the south.
Ang See noted that kidnappings in Metro Manila have waned chiefly because victims have been paying smaller ransom, usually below P1 million. Ransom demands by Mindanao kidnappers, meanwhile, have reached as high as P10 million.
The CAAC spokesperson urged victims against coughing out a big amount to get their relatives released, saying this only encourages kidnappers to pursue their activity. In some instances, kidnappers prey on the same victims or their families again and again, she said.
Ang See also cautioned politicians and other prominent personalities against playing into the hands of kidnappers, particularly the Abu Sayyaf Group which has asked for Vice President Noli de Castro, Sen. Richard Gordon and action star Robin Padilla to join the negotiations for the release of Red Cross workers Andreas Notter, 38, Eugenio Vagni, 62, and Mary Jean Lacaba, 37.
“We should have learned our lessons from the kidnappings of TV journalist Ces Drilon and human rights workers Esperancita Hupida and Millet Mendoza,” she said. “In both cases, kidnappers were ready to release the victims for a lower ransom until they got wind of intervention from Manila and delayed the release and raised the ante.”
She said the kidnappers “just want to demonstrate that they still have the capacity to wreak havoc.”
Papaanong di magkakalakas ng loob ang mga kriminal e kinokunsinte naman ng mga taumbayan?
Hanga nga ako kay Ang-See kasi ang tapang. Pero ilan ang bodyguard niya?
Teresita Ang-See indeed is a brave woman; but she’s also being protected by INC. Same is true with Anthony Taberna who is also a member of her church; hence, Taberna doesn’t hesitate to attack Arroyo and Malacanang in his daily program. One thing I find weird is that if INC is still supporting the Evil Bitch, why does it allow its members to attack the Bitch?

True, illegal drugs is a threat to our national security and public order.
Being the Commader-in-chief of the AFP, our drug czar has all the power to eliminate this if she wanted to.
The US sent almost 58.000 soldiers to Panama to capture Pres. Noriega, who masterminds the drug business being brought to USA. These soldiers did not even undergo drug schooling yet they were successful in their Operation Just Cause.
GMA is doing it unusually. She wants to review drug cases before these will be dismissed. Be vigilant. This surpasses the biggest business in the country.
Its the money in illegal drugs that is the cause of it all. Lets decriminalize it and we solve half of the problems if not all. Those new graduates can do better fighting the war in all points of our compass.
And we can have natural attrition of our population for those who insist on using the wrong drugs.
PNP acts, fails to appease Pampanga gov

binastos na si among ed.
ang mga heneral sa ilalim ng oversized na salawal ni Pekeng Greedy Mama Arroyo talaga, oo!
nasaan ba ang inyong mga bayag? ano ba laman niyan, ABO?
as usual, pinagtanggol na naman ‘yung mag-ina ni edong ermita-e, ang batanggenyong heneral na naging tagasubo ng tsupon ni gloria!
buset na matandang ‘yan!
itinatakwil ka namin bilang kababayan, HUDAS!
Re: “195 new intelligence officers”
I won’t be surprised if 30% of these intel officers will statistically “fall by the wayside” within the next few years.
Agree Magno! Si Edong naging walanghiya na rin pareho ng amo niyang duwende.
2o10 election lang ang huhusga sa kagaguhan at kabaliwan ng malacanang mafia at arroyo corrupt-poration…
kailangan nating magmatyag,lahat ay gagawin nila makalusot lang ang chacha at last scenario ang massive cheating uli courtesy of gloria magician-ronaldo puno, ed ermita at norberto gonzales.
si ed ermita, simpleng kawatan at alam ng mga taga batangas kung gaano kagahaman yan pagdating sa pera at power…nung kasagsagan ng garci scandal siya mismo nagkanlong kay garcillano itinago sa balayan city for 3months under his mayor pamangkin and with security escort ni capt. val lopez…
ngayon si capt. val lopez ay consultant na sa Mines Bureau ng DENR.
pag talaga naman nagagamit ka ng malacanang mafia at arroyo corrupt-poration ay di ka mawawalan ng trabaho…military profession naging consultant ng DENR?
at si jocjoc,tuloy-tuloy na ang pagkandidato sa legislative district ng kaniyang hometown with go-signal na ni kingpin pidal…talaga nga naman garapalan na ang mga damuho!!!!
magtulung-tulong tayo para ni isa man sa alipores ng malacanang mafia at arroyo corrupt-poration ay hindi na makapuwesto kasama na rin yung mga doble-kara sa senado sa darating ng 2010.
habang abala ang cause-oriented group, civil society at kritiko ng gobyernong to’ ay abala rin sina dilg puno, sec. ermita at sec. gonzales ng natl security to do another massive cheating in the event na di lumusot ang chacha this year…naninigurado ang mga damuho kasi nga di na sila sigurado sa suporta ng US ngayon at bago na ang liderato.
i hope the filipino nation will launch a serious campaign not to vote for these crooks, greedy politician from senatong, to congressthieves, to governors and mayors pati councilors na nalason na ng sistema ng corruption.
kahit na bumaha ng pera dahil sa dami ng ninakaw nila, we must expose their corrupt practices and informed the public of new leaders who will lead our country…
tama na sa trapo! tama na sa political dynasty!
bitchevil…
marami pang nakawan tago lang at di na lumabas sa media…
sa DOTC nga lang pati yung insurance pinatulan ni kingpin pidal at kahit may moa na sa isang insurance company naibigay pa ni mendoza at lastimoso sa rekomendado ni kingpin pidal.
mga purchases ng afp at pnp, marami overpricing and marami supplier di qualified pero na-award pa rin contract.
sa mmda ganun din, daming new company instant supplier.
sa customs garapalan ang smuggling, at lam ng mga opisyal diyan ang humahawak si cong. mikey pero hayun sawa sila sa pasok mga smuggled items from pc, frozen foods, used clothing, heavy equipment lahat na halos pati sugar at rice smuggling garapalan pero lagi lang pinapalabas yung maliit na nacompiscate daw nila…
ang recovered wealth ng PCGG ay halos wala na dahil ginamit na rin nila, maraming kaso natalo kasi mga govt lawyers daling mabulag sa kinang ng milyones.
most govt contracts now ay dapat ilapit mo sa malacanang mafia at arroyo corrupt-poration para sigurado ka, walang barya barya basta alam nilang siguradong pera kahit wala pa evaluation and final approval ay ginagawan agad nila ng budget.
si paule ay ilan lamang sa mga naging instant millionaire na ang trabaho lamang ay humanap ng supplier na susunod sa gusto nila at mag-aasikaso ng proseso ng procurement kuno isama mo na ang hokus-pokus pagdating sa commission at bayaran, kung independent lang ang ombudsman dami ng kasong nabuko sa mga local execs at mga politicians…eh ang kaso pagdating sa opisina ng ombudsman may katumbas na halaga ang isang kaso kaya sa bandang huli dismiss at lack of evidence daw kahit sangkaterba pa ang ebidensiya…
may katapusan din ang lahat, at ang kasalanan nila sa bayan ay pagbabayaran din nila sana nga lang ay marunong ng magalit si juan dela cruz para di na matulad sa pamilyang marcos at estrada kasama ng kanilang mga alipores na kalimutan na lamang matapos ang pang-aabuso sa poder ng kapangyarihan.
may pag-asa pa, basta tuloy lang ang ingay at laban sa mga kurakot sa gobyerno!
Pampanga Gov. Panlilio is fighting a lost cause alone in Pampanga. A fellow priest is even behind the proliferation of jueteng. What’s CBCP and the entire Catholic Church doing about this? Or the church also benefits from the jueteng proceeds?
There is money in Drug Business, not only for the people involve in trades but all around as we were seeing lately…it could be as far-reaching as the Dept. of Public Works antics, and other shenanigans of the Bolante’s types…or even worse, just the case of “alabang boys” as a teaser…
Drugs are everywhere not only on the Philippines. Even right there in Canada, Vic…in Vancouver, there’s report that daily killings of rival gangs are common.

off topic po:
Add this to your list BE:
Have you heard or read the statement of ermita on the smith case???
““It is the view of the Executive that the Romulo-Kenney agreement was very much in accord with Section 6, Article V of the VFA,” Ermita said, adding that this VFA provision pertains to Criminal Jurisdiction on the custody of the accused which shall be with the United States military authorities from the commission of the offense until completion of all judicial proceedings.”
Yes I agree with this provision, but jailing of smith is done with coercion and arm twisting by the americans. After the court sentenced smith’s imprisonment, what did the americans do??? cancel without proper notice the balikatan (S)exercise, to coerce and forced RP government of agreeing to what the americans want.
“Ermita also cited section 10 of the same Article 5 of the VFA which talks about US personnel serving sentence in the Philippines, in which case the confinement by local authorities of US personnel shall be carried out in facilities agreed upon by appropriate Philippine and US authorities.”
How can the RP government NOT agree to the demand of the americans? with all those cancellation of the balikatan (S)exercise and the reduction of the aid(S)?? and other so called assistance???What did this illegal administration did to the pressure??? BUMIGAY!!!!
Regarding senate resolution No. 892, the senate is ” enjoining colleagues to express the sense of the upper chamber for Mrs. Arroyo to call for a review of the provisions of VFA and accordingly, exercise the right to terminate the treaty considering that supervening events rendered its provisions as contrary to the 1987 Constitution.”
However, according to the senile senate president,” Enrile said, the proposition will require some studies “because you can not just terminate your relationship with somebody without thinking of the repercussions – what are the pros and cons.”
And in this case, the Senate president admitted that the country stand to lose a lot, in terms of exchange of information, assistance to availing of needed military equipment and more importantly, trade and political relationship.”
LOOSE WHAT??? We are at the losing ends to the american idiots!!!!
“When you break your relationship with your ally, there are repercussions, not only in terms of military but economic relationship,” he said adding that the presence of US military troops in the country gives a boost in combating terrorism.”
WHAT REPERCUSSION, we are always under threat because of their presence here. During their stay in RP, what did they give us??? NOTHING!!!
“It will disrupt the relationship of the two countries because our security relationship is defined in the Mutual Defense Treaty. And the VFA is an offshoot of the MDT. What is the VFA? The title itself describes it. It governs the handling, the conduct, and the treatment of forces of the US who visit the Philippines and forces of the Philippines that visit the US,” he explained.”
Yes, but does that mean abusing our women??? If you among the people can accept that, I cannot, being abused by a foreigner is very demeaning.
They never treat us as accordingl, much mire they always ignore us. Even out top military commanders cannot just enter their so called “TEMPORARY CAMP”, WHILE THEY CAN ENTER OUR CAMPS EVERYTIME THEY WANT.
Look at other countries who thrived on what they have, these american idiotts cannot even bully them, but our leadership is doing the other way.
If you want these american idiots to respect us, then they should honor the VFA and by not invoking some mere technicalities.
it seems to me this general is more american than the americans. batangenyo pa naman daw.
Even though we expect a better US government under the Obama administration, there’s nothing significant that would change her foreign policy. America will always protect their interest at the expense of smaller and poor nations.
BE, yes there is a lot of internecine among drug criminals, even in my neighbourhood, and Vancouver is one of the busiest Drug Capital and so is Montreal and Toronto, as we are in proximate to the U.S. whose Drugs problems interact across the borders…But so far, the Cops and the Politicians and not in the Front Pages or Alleged to be in Cahoots with the Bad Guys as of yet, there are isolated cases, but they are addressed and not covered up…just the other day, a woman who is 7 1/2 months pregnant was charged of 2nd degree murder when an uninvited guest in her baby shower was murdered and the cops responded to 911 call of someone inflicted himself, but the cops charged the woman for murder as the case is drug related, but which is which is still not released by the cop, the woman’s partner was also charged for Accesory after the Fact, (for cover up), yes we have also drug problems, but so far it has not reached the Judiciary yet…and the scary things, the druggies have guns…
Obama will be in Ottawa tomorrow for a scheduled 7 hours visit> GMA had already beat us of what the U.S. Prez can learn from Her, but here is a little that his own people, noted Americans suggest what he may learn from North of the Border.
Excerpt:
“If President Obama is looking for smart government, there is much he, and all of us, could learn from our quiet – okay, sometimes boring – neighbour to the north,” writes Fareed Zakaria, bestselling author (The Post-American World) and chief international columnist for Newsweek.
Zakaria notes that, in the industrialized world, only Canada has experienced no bank failures or government bailouts.

In addition to what you mentioned Vic, I read a report about a mother killed inside her car by the drug syndicate leaving her unharmed 5 years old child at the back seat. This happened in a city called Surrey in BC.
There are more specific cases, but most of them were resolved, and there are places especially in the socialized housing that the drug problems are rampant..and it also very high with our First Nations..that is part of every society, especially an open and democratic society. also a few days, the cops busted a house owned by a couple of young “asians” for grow-ops as the cops can smell the plants from the outside of the house as they patrol..see just every smoker here have their own inhouse grow-ops.
Kung ang mga awtoridad ay magiging tapat lamang sa kanilang tungkulin e disin sanay tapos na ang maliligayang araw ng talamak na bentahan ng droga sa Pinas.
Ang simpleng bagay e masyadong pinahihirap ng mga nagsusumiksik sa poder ng kapangyarihan, paano malulutas ang talamak na bentahan ng droga na ang mismong protektor nito e nasa hanay ng kapulisan/LGUs/Hoodlums in uniforms/malacanang boys?
Obvious naman na di nila alam ang kalakaran sa mundo ng droga? Nasaan ang intellegence funds ng gobyerno ni arroyo?
Hawak ng sindikato sa droga ang marami nating kababayan na nasa alta sociedad at karamihan sa kanila ay mga untouchable.
Ang pinagdidiskitahan lamang ay yaong mga palaboy sa lipunan na isang kahig, isang tuka upang makaraos sa pang araw-araw na buhay.
Pinagpapartihan ng mga ito ang recycled na droga na nahuthot ng mga tiwaling awtoridad sa mga pusher/dealer.
Ang tanong e ganito, sa 8-years ni gloria sa malacanang e may nahuli ba ang kanyang mga lapdogs ng drug lord(s)…WALA DI BA! Puro yabang ang alam at malapit na ang 2010 may nasampulan bang drug lord…hayon ang pinaghuhuhuli e mga Masang Pinoy na pinagkakaabalahan sa buhay e walang iba kundi mag durog, kasi po karamihan sa kanila estanbay…walang regular na trabaho.
Yan ang strategy ng gobyerno na bayaang magdurog na lamang itong mga pobreng Pinoy kasi nga kung busy sila sa pagdodroga e kabawasan yan sa mga reklamo dito reklamo doon dahil lango yan at nagsisilipad ang mga pag-iisip.
RE: Papaanong di magkakalakas ng loob ang mga kriminal e kinokunsinte naman ng mga taumbayan?
They are all acountable Grizzy, kaya dapat patawan ng kaukulang kaparusahan ang drug lord/ dealer/ pusher/ user/protector?
But i have fair proposal sa mga pesteng ito, unahin sa silya elektrika ang mga protector ng droga sa bansa? Kung walang protector ng droga e walang maglalakas loob na pasukin ang negosyong ito na pumapatay sa maraming tao.

Korek BE, kasi nga po why we Pinoys e sagad hanggang buto ang galit kay gloria macapagal-arroyo e isang damakmak na kawalanghiyan ang pinaggagagawa nila sa ating bayan.
Ang kapal naman naman ng APOG na pa awa epek pa, e isinusuka na ng taong-bayang heto’t kapit-tuko sa poder ng kapangyarihan.
Ang sinungaling at magnanakaw ng kapangyarihan at pera ng bayan pati na pahirap sa Pinoy e walang gloria minsan man aasahan sa balana.
Ang dapat sa kanya e bigyan ng lesson para matuto at magtanda, kasi nga po 8-years na sa malacanang e ayaw pang lisanin ito.
Sige lang! Darating din ang wakas mo gloria sapagka’t ang lahat ng bagay ay may katapusan, ang konsensiya mo ang multo na magpaparusa sa iyong kawalang galang sa batas ng naturalesa.
Ang problema sa droga ay isa lamang sa mga nakakarimarim na nangyayari sa atin. Mahirap pero hindi imposible na mapigilan ito. May kasabihan ‘Kung gusto may paraan, pag ayaw may dahilan’. Ang dahilan ay korupsyon. Hindi tulad ng mga ‘natural calamities’ gaya ng bagyo na imposibleng mapigilan, ang man-made calamities gaya ng korupsyon ay kayang mapigilan kung ‘diman mabawasan. Ang kaso wala na yatang makakapigil o makapagpapalayas man lamang sa Mag-asawang Ganid na na-ADIK na sa PAGNANAKAW at pagtira sa Malakanyang. Para silang mag-asawang bagyo na ayaw lumayas at halinhinan sa pagsalanta sa bayan.
BEIJING—China Wednesday slammed the Philippines for laying claim to parts of the disputed Spratly Islands, calling the move a violation of Chinese sovereignty.
“The government of the People’s Republic of China has indisputable sovereignty over these islands and their adjacent waters,” said a statement issued by the foreign ministry.
….After the WB and Obama’s (third) snub of the Evil Bitch and the proposed abolition of the VFA, here comes another rift with China. If the US and China abandon RP, where does the Bitch go? Russia?
I just heard the news that Clinton had signed an agreement with Japan to remove the US forces in Okinawa due to a referendum by the people of the southern islands of Japan elsewhere. Hindi sinabi kung saan, pero duda ko sa Mindanao.
Kung sa Mindanao, dapat magalit ang mga pilipino kasi gumagawa sila ng desisyon na walang consent ng majority ng mga pilipino, at saka walang pilipino sa usapan ng US at Japan. For me, this is an insult. Maski mga kaibigan kong mga hapon galit. Sa totoo lang, hapon pa nga iyong nagprotesta ng paggamit ng mga kano ng Mindanao para sa military exercises nila.
May publicity dito tungkol sa pagbisikleta niya ng kampo ng mga kano doon, pero wala akong nabasang publicity tungkol sa ginawa niya sa Pilipinas. Nakakadismaya sa totoo lang ang ugali ng mga inaapi na nakatuod pa rin!!! Kaya nawiwili si Gloria Dorobo na ginagago silang mga kababayan niya!
Ano iyong hinaing ni Gloria Dorobo? E ang linaw naman ng sinabi niya na pangsarili lang ang ginagawa niya nang sinabi niyang, “Nakakainis! No matter what good I do for the country, people hate me.” Remember iyong sinabi ni Tapalani before na siya ang Inang Bayan? O di ba malinaw na pangsarili lang iyan?
Madam, nahuhuli ka sa pananalita mo! Please step down, at magpakakulong ka sa mga kabulastugang ginagawa mo. Kapaaaal ng mukha mo!
Balweg:
Papaano silang huhulihin, pinayagang maging hepe ng pulis, SC, etc. iyong mga appointee ng animal? Unbelievable talaga ang kabobohan sa totoo lang. Natural, hindi sila huhulihin ng mga rekomendado nila para hindi rin sila matanggal. Parang “You protect me, I protect you!”
Kawawang bansa!
Prans:
If you read the press releases soon after the incident, you will know that Smith was not coerced but caught on the act. Nahabol sila ng patrol as a matter of fact when they threw Nicole out of the van and the patrol ran after them. Hindi pa nga yata naisara ni Smith iyong pantalon niya when he was caught.
Ma nakasabit ngang condom doon sa ari ng babae na may specimen ng sperm ng yumari sa kaniya. Pero anong ginawa noong mga sipsip sa mga kano, winala ang ebidensiya!
Never heard such thing happening over here sa totoo lang. Dito iyang, welcome na welcome iyong ebidensiya kahit isang patak ng sperm para malaman kung sino talaga ang culprit. Iyong nakuhang ebidensiya isang condon ng sperm, winala pa!!!
I have actually interpreted for perpetrators and victims of rape in Japan. Walang binatbat iyong mga bobo sa Pilipinas. Dito, scientific pa ang approach. May pasukat-sukat pa. Doon sa Pilipinas, may ebidensiya na, sadya pang winawala para mawala ang ebidensiya para di makalaboso iyong kriminal na puedeng magbayad ng cash!
Tanong: Magkano kaya ang binayad ng US kay Gloria at balato ni Ermita, ha?
I was watching ABS-CBN’s TV Patrol News last night where one reporter (Joey Villarama, I think) chanced upon a Police operation and started taking video footages. What was shown was a car parked normally but its rear windshield appear to have been peppered with bullets. While the other cops were holding back the traffic, including the reporter’s vehicle, two police cars pulled alongside the parked car.
One guy in shorts was carrying an M16 alighted from the car marked ANCAR (Anti-Carnapping Group) opened the door behind the driver and a body of a man rolled out of the car. The guy in shorts took aim with his M16 and started to pump 2 bullets into the almost dead man few inches from the nozzle. Few more shots rang as the other occupants were finished off.
Shocking!
The reporter said he asked the operatives why they had to shoot an almost dead man, “Gumagalaw pa kasi” was the reply that he got.
A lesson should be learned from the above rubout. If you want to live, fake death or pretend you’re dead. That means don’t move.

Exodus, that’s what. Since the year 2000, some 11,000 Filipino doctors have gone back to school to retrain as nurses, according to the Philippine Medical Association. Most of them have landed jobs as nurses in North America.
If Dona Gloria y su esposo continue in power, time will come when the only medical professionals left in the country are those at St. Luke’s, but their services will not be affordable to you and me. Only crooks in government and their contractors and “runners” will be able to afford them.
Akala ko sasabihin mo that someday these doctors may even end up being glorified atsoy and atsay! How miserable can they get?!
Tongue,
Sa amin iyan, kahit pulis sila, hindi puedeng basta-basta nambabaril. Malilintikan sila sa mga miyembro ng Japan Federation of Bar Association at mga taumbayan. Murder na ang labas kapag wala naman laban ang binaril lalo na patay na binabaril pa. Kahit pulis sila, puede silang kasuhan at parusahan.
Sobra naman backward ang police force diyan!

Boxing champ Pacquiao is now ‘Dr. Pacquiao’
MANILA, Philippines – Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao was conferred the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Humanities (Honoris Causa) by Southwestern University (SWU) in Cebu City, a television report said Thursday.
Can you imagine a DOJ Secretary questioning SC decision?
Smith may end up in US
Sec. Gonzalez blames SC’s vague phrasing
Even with a Supreme Court ruling that ordered the transfer of US Marine Lance Corporal Daniel Smith from the American Embassy to a Philippine jail, the convicted rapist may still end up serving time abroad or in the United States, according to Justice Secretary Raul Gonzalez.
The Evil Bitch calls for Moral Renewal. Columnist Nestor Mata calls her Moral Impostor.
Sign of the Times: Masagana ang drugs sa buong mundo..nakaabot na gani sa Antique. Thanks to you..the gang rape that happened in San Jose, is now known by many. I understand even Arroyo ordered for the investigation. Check your e-mail..

RE: Shocking!
Korek TonGuE-tWisTeD, buking ang mga tirador ni gloria…hay salamat may ibidensiya against criminals in uniform.
Kita nýo, yan ang realidad sa Pinas…walang tulak kabigin kasi nga po, mapamilitar o pulis-patola yan ang kanilang strategy para likidahin ang mga kawatan sa ating lipunan.
But yong big time kurap at magnanakaw sa gobyernong arroyo e di nila magalay kasi lagot sila kay SIR at sa kangkungan sila itatapon.
Kaya ang daming unresolved killings sa Pinas? E nasa hanay ng mga awtoridad ang mga mamamatay tao, kaya ang kapinuyan e may pobya na sa kanila. Ika nga, wala nang tiwala ang mamamayan sa ating mga awtoridad sapagka’t sila ang tunay na kaaway nang ating lipunan.
Co-Baguio boy friend and mentor of mine was a former US DEA agent assigned to some parts of Asia including the Philippines in the mid-90’s. He’s my source to drug protectors and Drug Lords at that time (including Cuneta). I can spell out names of former politicians, top ranking police/military officials but it’s inconsequential, nothing is being done – thieves probing thieves, none was put behind the lace covered windows. The Philippine scenario will be equated to the movie “The Bonfire of the Vanities”.
In short it’s a joke, a charade!
That said – he intimated how local PDEA agents bungled a few joint-international drug busts by the Rambo-istic styles of the local agents. As expected, the Druglords and their alipores were alreaty tipped from the inside of any drug infiltrations by the US, Aussie, UK and other national agents.
I asked him how about the new graduates of PDEA and without hesitation, in the vernacular he said , “macorrupt amin dagita ta corrupt ti gobyerno, nasayaat met koma no adda maysa wenno dua nga nasingpet!” I further asked him how to solve the corruption, his response was this; “paglilinyaek amin dagita okininana nga corrupt ken paltogak amin ti ulo da!”
This guy loves “steak and chocolate” so I’d just take him out to dinner to elicit some interesting names of the who’s who in the drug community just for the hell of it. He hangs around in Session Road and loves to read the local papers.
Puede naman in fact to request the US to jail Smith not at their embassy but in a prison in the US like San Quentin, but the point is this has to be done through diplomatic and judicial processes. Hindi puedeng makialam iyong inutil na unconfirmed Sickritary of InJustice of the Philippines.
Over here for instance, it is the court that do such kind of procedure as in the case for instance of some Filipino seamen who murdered a Japanese official in a boat outside of Japanese waters even when the incident happened near Japan.
International criminal procedure was applied, and the Filipinos to the country of origin of the ship the crime was committed.
In the case of the Smith case, it happened in the Philippines, and the Philippines has the legitimate claim to put Smith on trial, sentence him, and give him the right to appeal without his embassy messing up the criminal procedure the way that lady ambassadress has tried to literary insult the Filipinos by demanding that the US soldier be turned over to them.
Puedeng mag-apela to prove his innocence, but not to demand that he be treated as a VIP. Tangnanay nilang mga unggoy sila!
Malandi man o hindi si Nicole, lumaban siya at dapat lang siyang tulungan ng mga kababayan na itayo ang puri at dangal niya bilang isang pinay! Bakit mahirap intindihin iyan? Hindi lang puri at dangal ni Nicole ang pinaglalaban dito kundi puri’t dangal ng lahing pilipino sa totoo lang!!!
…he Filipinos were sent to the country of origin of the ship where the crime was committed.
Ang daming abogado sa Pilipinas, bakit hindi alam iyan? Sagot: kasi puro gago sila!!!
Exception nga pala sina Atty. Harry Roque, Atty. Trixie Angeles, et al.
The Filipino First Family Prepares to Move Allegedly to Toronto, Canada:
According to an impeccable source, Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has started to prepare a haven in the Ontario Province of Canada. Apparently she prefers to move to Canada in case she is deposed or she does not get to extend her administration beyond June 30, 2010, by failing to amend the Philippine Constitution.
Diosdado “Boboy” Macapagal, Jr., the President’s brother, has been reported by our informant lately to have been allegedly buying some choice properties in exclusive sections of the City of Toronto. Also reported to be buying real estate in Toronto by the MabuhayRadio. com source are some reputed officers of the Presidential Security Guard and some of President Arroyo’s Rasputins.
This website is confident that Filipino-Canadian writers and community leaders will be able to identify the properties bought allegedly by Mr. Macapagal and some of President Arroyo’s security people. This website does not have any correspondent in Ontario, Canada, to verify the reports.
The alleged choice of Canada by President Arroyo and her kin as a haven or a place of exile seems to be well founded, as Canada does not have any extradition treaty with the Philippines. If readers may recall, the killer of then Antique Governor Evelio Javier fled to Canada and he could not be extradited to the Philippines.
Our columnist, Poet-pundit Fred Burce Bunao, thinks that perhaps President Arroyo decided on Toronto, Canada, after she read a MabuhayRadio. com report that said that the Canadian city was named allegedly by the first Filipino immigrant to that country. To read this tall tale, please click on this link, Filipino Fun Facts (Part IV): How Filipinos Named States and Cities. Plus Fables and Fairies
But on another lighter note, Mr. Bunao said that Canada is the perfect place of exile for the First Family as the Arroyos have Canadian roots, if not experience. According to the aging poet-pundit, “Mahilig silangkumana doon . . . kana dito, cana dian . . .” # # #

o, ‘ayan! meron na namang nahuleng intsik na pusher ng droga.
gloria, akala ko ba nang gawin mo ang sarili mong anti drug czar eh patitigilin mo ang agos ng suplay ng droga? puro porma lang naman at kayabangan ang alam mong sabihin at gawin.
raul gonzales, baka sabihin mo naman, technically illegal ang paghuleng ginawa. ulol kang gago ka!
‘yung magagaleng na abugagong katulad nina veranong mahilig sa pagtatanggol sa mga ganitong uri ng kriminal, ihanda na ule ang mga iskripted na kasinungalingan katulad ng mga counter testimonies ng alabang boys!
‘tangnaninyo! mga anak sana ninyo ang maging biktima ng droga, mga hayup kayo!
mas masahol pa kayo sa salot na drogang sumisira sa kinabukasan ng kabataan! noong nag-aaral pa kayo, akala ninyo napakarangal ng adhikain ninyong sinasabi pang ipagtatanggol ang mga naaapi, yun pala ang kikilingan aty ipagtatanggol ay ‘yung kayang magbayad ng milyon sukdulang baluktutin (ninyo ang batas) mapalabas lamang na inosente ang mga katulad ninyo’y hayup ang antas ng isipan at asal!
nadala na naman ako ng sobrang galit, pasensiya na lalo sa may ari ng bahay.
bilang ama na walang hinangad kundi mailayo sa bisyo ang mga anak gayundin ang mga kadugo at ibang kabataan dahil walang maidudulot na kabutihan sa katawan ang pagkalulong sa ipinagbabawal na gamot ay naghuhumiyaw sa ngingit ang aking kalooban kapag nakakabasa ako ng ganitong balita na bandang huli ay aabsuweltuhin lamang ng dapat ay unang unang kumontra upang masugpo ang paglaganap ng salot na droga.
hindi ang ating batas ang inutil kundi ang mga katulad nina raul gonzalez at mga prosekyutor na nagpupumilit na palabasing hindi naging makatwiran ang paghuli subalit kung tutuusin, ano mang paraan ang ginamit, walang pasubaling labag sa batas ang pagtutulak ng droga at maliwanag na mismong ang mga tulak na ito ang walang pakundangan sa pagyurak sa karapatan ng sinuman upang magkamit ng maayang bukas dahil sila (tulak)ang dahilan ng pagkalulong sa bisyo.
anumang uri ng kriminal ay hindi dapat pang gawaran ng karapatang pantao bagkus ay patawan ng pinakamabigat na kaparusahan sapagkat sila ang unang unang lumalabag sa karapatan ng kapwa tao.
It can be a blessing in disguise that the US Military bases (Clark and Cubi point/Subic NB) are no longer on domestic soil. The Arroyos could have been evacuated by military flights to Mexico, Pampanga but American pilots might have taken them to the country of Mexico, ala Marcos where they were supposed to go to Paway, Ilocos but ended up in Hawaii.
The Arroyos are only following in the footsteps of the Marcoses – in the back of their greedy minds; if nothing happened to the Marcos clan, why would the masses harm us?
That’s why it’s quite imperative for the populace not to let them out of the country once Gluerilla is displaced and for the next President (if he/she is tough enough!) to bring them all to court to face a mile long rapsheets (wishful thinking here, wink wink!).
BE, Contrary to your claim there is an Extradition Treaty between Canada and the Philippines signed in l989. The Pacificador case which Drag On for years< yes it was here in our backyard, the request by the Philippine Government was REFUSED by the Superior Court Judge on the Ground that Mr. Pacificador may not get a Fair Trial, although he conceded that the evidence presented by the Attorney General on Behalf of the Philippines Authorities were convincing enough…
So in the Case of the First Couple as you posted plan of moving to Toronto, they will be still subject to Extradition if so requested by the Philippines Government and as long as they are not in violation of any Canadian Laws, they are most welcome to live with us as long as they Behave and bring a lot of investment to our ever Shrinking Economy..and by the Way Canada just simply came from the St. Lawrence Iroquoian words “KANATA” which is in our own word means “Village”. There are still lot of places who are called Kanata, but the French led by the first Explorer of the French Quebec Jacques Cartier changed it To Canada instead…Just a proper perspective of this Great country and its History….
That’s a good observation. Maybe that is why there is the frenzy of amassing as much as they can in the last two minutes, so that they can ride to the sunset and enjoy the wealth. After all, Imelda has not been touched, even by the administration of the widow of the man they killed. The family is back, Bongbong is a congressman, etc.
BUT
Gloria sent Erap to jail, and stole the vote from FPJ. Will the masses forgive her for that? I don’t think she wishes to sit around to find out. So cha-cha cha, que rico cha cha cha.
i think that if gma and cohorts will ever leave pinas she will choose a place quite near due to climate etc. they cannot move to hawaii the husband cannot even enter the usa. she will probably choose hongkong.
Hongkong is being visited by most Filipinos and close to the Philippines. I don’t think it would be Hongkong or anywhere in Asia. I still believe Canada or somehwhere in Europe. Vic pointed out that Canada does have an extradition treaty. That, I’m sorry I’m not aware of. I just quoted the above post from somewhere. But indeed, Canada is haven from crooks and fugitives. If you still remember that Dewey Dee who caused the great bank run during the Marcos regime. He escaped to Canada. Vicky Toh is in Vancouver with her siblings. One big Chinese fugitive is fighting for his deportation in Vancouver. This guy stole millions and bribed Chinese officials. There are many more now hiding in Canada. That’s why many are complaining that while Canadian immigration is strict on immigrant applications, she welcomes refugees some of whom are war criminals.
We have to be mindful Erap was never really in jail. Jalosjos would love to have been in Erap’s luxurious situation. BUT I also love que rico cha cha cha followed simply by my own que sera sera.
Mugabe will extend an open arms to all the Arroyo clan in his country. Who knows, Gluerilla might even take over should Mugabe expires at any moment.
While I agree that Erap was comfortably detained at his Tanay rest house, I believe it was mentally stressful for him to be restricted. He was unable to move freely and do whatever he wanted to do. Sometimes, mental is harder than physical pain.
Most of all, Erap was convicted of a crime that he did not commit or at least did not go through the normal impeachment process. The most that he should have been charged was bribery. Plunder should not be Erap’s crime. He was charged of plunder so that he could not obtain bail. It’s as simple as that.
Mike Pidal, future Prime Minister?

Maybe you meant Crime Minister. Or Prime Sinister.
Crime Minister…a good one. You’re witty, atty. By the way, what’s the maximum penalty for the crime of parricide?
