Yung pinatay na vlogger na may content din tungkol sa INCult, binabatikos nya ang INC, malaki posibilidad na SCAN hitmen ng INCult ang dumali doon, Kaparehas ng pumatay kay Gold Dagal.

Malakas loob nila kasi may INC members na Pulis, isasabotahe lang ang imbestigasyon hanggang hindi na pag usapan. Katulad ng kay Gold Dagal, kilala na yung suspect na SCAN pero until now hindi pa din nahuhuli, ni hindi nga umingay sa Media yung kaso ni Gold Dagal. Pikon kasi ang INCult pag ginawan mo sila ng video na ini-exposed mo sila, asahan mo itutumba ka. Siniwalat nayan noong "2015 INC scandal" ng ilang ministro na may hitman talaga ang INC. Mismong kapatid pa nga ni Eduardo Manalo ang nag siwalat ng corruption sa INC. Balikan nyo interview kay Angel Manalo.

Gumalaw ka naman PBBM, pakilusin mo mga PNP pero dapat Balasahin mo muna ang PNP alisin mo mga INC member na Pulis na Regional Director lalu na sa Metro Manila.

Paging all DDS out there.

If kaya niyo pa ring depensahan ang pinaggagawa ng mga Intsik, then, my middle finger salutes you!

This isn’t a joke, nor should even be considered as one. This represents as to how the Chinese view us as a people, as a nation. While, they might intend it as a joke, it shows a kind of racism that is overt, by looking at the Filipino people as monkeys. Mere monkeys subject to the whims of great powers like the US and Japan.

Mapapamura nalang talaga ako sa mga DDS, kung pati iyan dedepensahan nila. Actually, I’d take offense if they even stayed silent on this issue. Do note na kayo rin, tinatrato na nila bilang unggoy.

If you continue to defend Chinese aggression, or these kinds of actions, how can you call yourself a Pilipino?

Tapang at malasakit diba? Tapang sa Pilipino, malasakit sa Tsekwa??

Can someone genuinely explain why so many Filipinos are revering Rene Baterbonia instead of simply letting the child rest in peace?

I’m seeing people make perfumes, idols, statues, and all sorts of memorabilia. I honestly don’t understand it. Is this just people chasing clout and engagement, or is there a deeper cultural, religious, or psychological reason behind it?

Why do we become so emotionally attached to someone we’ve never met? At what point does sympathy turn into a parasocial relationship? Is this our way of coping with tragedy, or are we unintentionally commercializing and romanticizing a child’s death?

I’m not asking this to mock anyone, I genuinely want to understand why this phenomenon happens and why it seems to resonate with so many people.

Senator Risa Hontiveros presides over the joint hearing of the Senate Committees on Economic Affairs, Public Works, and Finance on July 16, 2026, tackling bills which seek to establish the proposed Master Plan on Infrastructure and National Development (MIND) Act.

A proposed law requiring a long-term national infrastructure master plan could help stop multibillion-peso infrastructure scandals, including anomalous flood control projects, senators said Thursday as the Senate committee on economic affairs opened deliberations on the measure.

During the committee’s first hearing on the proposed Master Plan for Infrastructure and National Development (MIND) Act, chairperson Sen. Risa Hontiveros said the bill seeks to ensure that government infrastructure spending is anchored on long-term planning instead of politically driven priorities.

“The MIND bill is not just an important measure for economic development and sound government spending,” Hontiveros said. “If enacted, it could help prevent, and hopefully end, controversial infrastructure scams such as the flood control scandal.”

She said the proposal would require a continuing and comprehensive infrastructure master plan that would guide government spending and prevent billions of pesos from being allocated to projects that are poorly planned, unnecessary or fail to address the problems they were intended to solve.

According to Hontiveros, the measure aims to introduce reforms at the planning stage and ensure that budgets are aligned with approved development plans.

“When there is no master plan, the budget becomes an incoherent list of projects chosen not by community needs or economic potential,” she said.

The bill consolidates proposals filed by Senators JV Ejercito, Erwin Tulfo, Jinggoy Estrada and Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian.

Ejercito said the Philippines has fallen behind neighboring countries in transport infrastructure because of the lack of sustained long-term planning.

He noted that the country, once second only to Japan in development, now trails Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia by decades in railway and mass transit systems.

“For me, infrastructure is a matter of national survival,” Ejercito said, adding that institutionalizing long-term planning would allow strategic projects to continue despite changes in political leadership.

Tulfo, meanwhile, criticized what he described as the “back-to-zero” culture in government, where new administrations discontinue projects initiated by their predecessors.

He said the proposed MIND Act would ensure that priority infrastructure projects are completed regardless of political rivalries.
“For too long, infrastructure planning has largely been tied to the priorities of each administration,” Tulfo said. “If we have a master plan embodied in law, projects will continue regardless of who becomes president.”

At the close of the hearing, Hontiveros said the committee would convene a technical working group to refine the measure while considering concerns raised by resource persons, including avoiding overlaps with existing planning bodies, ensuring flexibility in implementing a 30-year master plan, strengthening coordination with local governments, and integrating key sectors such as agriculture, energy, housing and tourism.

She said another public hearing may be called if unresolved issues emerge during the technical working group’s discussions.

On July 10, 2026, President Ferdinand “BBM” Marcos Jr. spoke at a diplomatic reception, reaffirming the ruling as a cornerstone of Philippine policy: disputes must be settled by law, not force, and the South China Sea should be a sea of peace, not conflict. Events included a joint statement with 14 nations (US, Japan, Australia, etc.) on July 12 reinforcing that the award is final and binding.

China’s Thin-Skinned Response

China’s state mouthpiece China Daily quickly hit back with an ugly AI-generated video posted on July 10. It portrayed a monkey in Filipino barong and salakot, manipulated like a puppet by US and Japanese figures on a boat stage. The monkey sings the “wrong” tune about maritime negotiations, pulls out a paper referencing the arbitration award, and gets tossed into the sea—slammed by a water cannon for good measure. The caption painted the Philippines as a pawn stirring trouble at the behest of outsiders.

Philippine officials rightly slammed it as overt racism and dehumanization. PCG spokesperson Jay Tarriela called out the “public racial discrimination,” while Defense Secretary Teodoro highlighted China’s “schizophrenic” propaganda. Filipinos aren’t monkeys.

Legitimate Philippine Claims

This comes despite the Philippines’ strong legal position. The 2016 arbitral tribunal (under UNCLOS) invalidated China’s expansive “nine-dash line,” affirmed Philippine sovereign rights in its EEZ, and clarified features like those in the Spratlys and Scarborough Shoal. The award is final and binding between the parties—China just refuses to accept it while continuing aggressive actions.

Bottom line: Celebrating a legitimate legal victory isn’t provocation—it’s standing on principle. China’s racist monkey-puppet smear reveals more about their frustration with a rules-based pushback than anything else. Manila has every right to defend its territory in the West Philippine Sea, including the Spratlys and Scarborough Shoal.

In case you don't know, Philippines pulled an upset against powerhouse Puerto Rico in the WBSC Women's Softball World Cup 2026. although the Filipinas later fell to Great Britain, 5-0.

Laging tatandaan ang mga pinapangako ng mga nanalong pulitiko.

mula sa Kuryente ni Marcoleta, sa ₱20 na bigas ng admin, at etong 10k na ayuda.

Mga UNITEAM voters talaga sana dumami na ang nagising.

Yung sinasabing net satisfaction rating na tumaas daw uli ng 2 pts at nasa 31+ na. TANDAAN nanggaling yan sa mga 77+ at 84% pilipino daw masaya. Lampas kalahati na ang ibinaba.

Always look at the pulse rating’s history before making conclusions.

I always take Grab to and from work, and I always turn on Quiet Mode. Introvert kasi ako, and I really don't enjoy small talk. Pero minsan, kapag mabait naman ang driver, napapasagot din ako at napapakwento ng konti.

Today, on my way home, I got a polite driver and the conversation started naturally. My usual route passes by the ongoing PNR construction, so he mentioned how delayed the project was. I already knew that, syempre naman. Sabi pa niya, na-delay raw kasi ginamit sa flood control ang budget. Whether that's true or not, the project has been delayed since Digong time.

I usually avoid political conversations with strangers, but he kept going. He talked about how the Philippines supposedly missed its chance to become a wealthy country because of the delays in the PNR and the subway. Yun daw kase sana mag aahon saten sa hirap, kasama yung iba pang build build build project na pinatigil daw ni BBM.

He continued by saying that this would be the last time the country would suffer because BBM's term is almost over. Araw-araw daw niyang ipinagdarasal na sana ang susunod na presidente ay matino at hindi corrupt para tuloy-tuloy na ang pag-unlad ng Pilipinas.

Then came the plot twist.

According to him, the one person who is not corrupt and the country's greatest hope...

...is Sara Duterte.

At that point, I simply stopped responding, looked out the window, and pretended to fall asleep.

Hindi kinaya ng utak ko yung mental gymastic ni kuya. 😭

Kailangan bugbugin nang ganitong posts mga kagaya ni Robin at Alan para makita nila ang katanghan natin.

May pumipick up kung ano ang sinasabi tungkol sa kanila sa socmed at kahit dito sa reddit. Ilang beses ko na narinig na natatamaan mga defense senator judges sa kada meme at kaya hirit sa kanila. Kaya dapat wag silang tigilan. Hindi sila immune sa kritisismo.
