Signature gathering for Cha-Cha still on

Published by Ellen on March 19, 2009

When a friend told me that the release of convicted child rapist Romeo Jalosjos, former Zamboanga del Norte representative, was connected to the Charter change being pushed by Malacañang, I was skeptical about it because Gloria Arroyo’s political adviser has said that Cha-Cha is dead in the water and they are now focused on the 2010 elections.

Until I talked with former JDV (former House Speaker Jose de Venecia) yesterday to verify rumors that he had met with Mike Arroyo, husband of Gloria Arroyo, and that he would be restored to the speakership in exchange for his help to push for charter change.

JDV vehemently denied that he met with Mike Arroyo and that he had made any compromise deal with him.

Ang bugaw ni Nicole

Published by Ellen on March 18, 2009

Noong Lunes, sa interbyu kay Lorelei Fajardo, deputy presidential spokesperson tungkol sa tawag ni US President Barack Obama kay Gloria Arroyo, sinabi niya na hindi nila pinapabayaan si “Nicole” ang alias na binigay ng media kay Suzette Nicolas, ang nag-akusa ng rape kay US Marine Cpl Daniel Smith.

Sabi ni Fajardo, “We have not abandoned Nicole, we will be supporting her all the way. And I’m sure therewill be some kind of a compromise agreement between the two countries so that we can come into terms for the best, for what would be the best for Nicole. I think that should be clear enough.

Nang tanungin siya kung ano yung compromise agreement na yun, ang sagot ni Fajardo, “I think ang ibig ko lang sabihin about the compromise agreement is that we will fight for her and we will be supporting her. We have not abandoned her. Ongoing naman ang negotiation natin with the US on Nicole’s case. “

‘Nicole’ recants

Sworn Statement of Suzette S. Nicolas media hid under the name “Nicole”

REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES
Annex A
CITY OF MAKATI

I, SUZETTE S. NICOLAS, of legal age. Filipino, a resident of Zamboanga City, after being duly sworn in accordance with law, hereby depose and state:

1. I am a Bachelor of Science graduate, major in Management Accounting, of the Ateneo de Davao University. Soon after my graduation, I took up nursing in 2004 at the Ateneo de Zamboanga City and at the same time assisted in managing our family owned canteen located inside the military base of the Southern Command. My mother was a civilian supervisor of the Philippine Navy for 25 years while my deceased father was a Philippine Navy Officer.

2. Since our canteen also catered to American servicemen who stayed at the military base every time their vessels docked in Zamboanga City, my family came to know many American servicemen who would go to our canteen to eat and buy souvenir items. We treated them as family and we would go out of our way to talk to them, play cards and on many occasions, my mother would even cook special meals for them. They would even entrust their ATM cards to us to withdraw money for them from the bank. My former boyfriend, Brian Goodrich, is also an American serviceman.

3. After working in Swift Foods Inc. since January 22, 2007, I decided to quit my job as a Credit Accountant to pursue my studies in the United States through the help of my family, relatives and close friends. I know that they supported me so that I could finally move on after my tragic experience in 2005 in Subic, Zambales which led to the trial and conviction for rape of Daniel J. Smith.

Namamayagpag ang mga kriminal

Published by Ellen on March 16, 2009

Ang mga kriminal napapalaya, ang lumalaban sa katiwalian ay nakakulong.

Ganyan ngayon ang sitwasyon sa Pilipinas sa administrasyon ni Gloria Arroyo.

Dismayado ang pamilyang Maguan sa balitang ang killer ni Eldon na si Rolito Go ay mukhang malapit nang mapalaya. Nasa diyaryo kahapon na nilipat na sa Go mula sa maximum security complex sa isang section sa New Bilibid prison na pwede silang maglalakad na walang guwardiya basta pagdating ng ika-lima ng hapon, balik siya doon sa kanyang selda . Ang tawag daw nila ng sitwasyon na yun ay “live out minimum security”.

Sa statement na pinalabas ng pamilyang Maguan na pirmado ng ina ni Eldon na si Rosario, sinabi nila na hindi pa nila nakuha ang detalya ng special status ni Go ngunit kung totoo, ipina-protesta nila itong pangyayari.

RP to initiate border talks

The Philippines will soon initiate border talks with its neighbors and finally confront territorial issues it has long avoided, the most contentious being the dispute with Malaysia over Sabah, now that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has signed the Philippine Archipelagic Baseline Law.

The Baseline Law defines the limits of Philippine territory. It is these limits that will determine the country’s extended continental shelf, which is believed to contain substantial amounts of oil, natural gas, minerals and polymetals.

The Philippines has less than two months to beat the May 13, 2009 deadline for the submission of its claim over the extended continental shelf before the United Nations Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS). The UN body, however, will not rule on a claim if it involves disputed territory.

US plays game with Arroyo

Published by Ellen on March 15, 2009

Update: Rape victim Nicole in US “for good”, terminates services of lawyer.

It is no idle coincidence that the arrest of family members of disgraced Maj. Gen. Carlos Garcia , former comptroller of the Armed Forces of the Philippines happened at the time when calls for the abrogation of Visiting Forces Agreement is mounting.

They are part of a high-stakes power play that sadly reduces the Filipino people as pawns. For the United States, at stake is their being able to maintain their diminishing dominance in Asia Pacific amid China’s growing global influence. For Gloria Arroyo, it’s political survival.

Fourteen months away from the end of her corruption-riddled presidency, Gloria Arroyo has been begging for a photo-opportunity with the new U.S president thinking that the picture would negate the creeping impression that the Americans have written her off especially after the World Bank released the report that her husband Mike Arroyo is involved in corruption in public works projects.

Mga huling baraha ni Arroyo

Habang papalapit na ang 2010 na ang pagka-intindi ng marami ay hanggang doon lang ang termino ng nakaw na pagka-presidente ni Gloria Arroyo, nilalabas na ng mag-asawang Arroyo at ng kanilang mga alagad ang kanilang mga huling baraha.

Alam naman natin lahat na walang plano si Gloria Arroyo bumaba sa kanyang hawak na nakaw na kapangyarihan dahil sa dami ng kanyang nagawang krimen laban sa mamamayang Pilipino, takot siyang makasuhan at makulong kasama na ang pamilya.

Hindi na solusyon ang mangibang bansa ngayon dahil nakita natin sa kaso ni Augusto Pinochet ng Chile at ng iba pang international criminals na hindi kinukunsinti ng ibang bansa ang mga dating lider na nanloko ng sariling mamamayan.
