RH Bill: Yes or No
P-Noy Becomes Richer
He has 3 luxury cars (I wonder if they have atv winches) a 2007 Land Cruiser, 2005 Ford Everest and a 3rd-hand Porche. I think it’s perfectly fine if the SALN of government officials increases as long as it is well explained to the public.
OLA Feast Day
Participants were having a dance parade! Oldies and young ones wore colorful baro’t saya. The reason why I brought out my canon digital cameras and took some snaps. Lively folk music were being played by 2 bands (1 at the front of the parade and one at the tail) as different groups danced synchronized steps. This tradition of Filipinos made us different from other countries. We are such a religious people. We celebrate feast days with joy and pride even
when we are in distress. That’s the Filipino spirit!
EDSA Revolution’s Silver Anniversary
It’s been 25 years now after the successful and very peaceful People’s Power at EDSA. I remember I was only 15 years old then. Being a teen, I was not allowed to go to EDSA that time. But I watched everything on tv. People from all walks of life were there. Rich, poor, middle class, nuns, priests, soldiers, emergency medical assistance were there too. Filipinos that time want changes by ousting the dictator ex-president Ferdinand Marcos.
Just recently, it happened again in Egypt. It was a bloody one but still successful. The president went down. But as of this writing, citizens of Libya are on chaos. They also want changes. But unfortunalety their president doesn’t want to lose his power. Many people already died, many were hurt. Sad to say that many Filipinos are there. Some were even being hostaged by the Libyans.
Please let’s all pray for their safety.
Pagsanjan Church
This pic was taken on the 1st day of the year 2011 when we visit the church first before spending overnight at the Pagsanjan Falls Lodge in Laguna. As we enter the chursh there was a book to sign in. I found out that since it’s a tourists destination it serves as a logbook for all the tourists in the province.
structure is old fashioned. Inside, it’s kinda modernized already. The floors are tiled (good thing we won’t be needing a Mesothelioma lawyer) and walls and ceilings are painted white which made the church tidy looking.
