Two mining firms scrap share-swap plan with Geograce

This is with regard to the subject story stated above all I can say is “what a farce!” All three mining firms, Geograce, Garnierite Mining Inc. and Saprolite Mining Inc. are owned by one and the same individual!

Politics should be about public service

Sad to say this is not happening in some parts of the world. Let me say the Philippines is one of its’ examples. I hope my countrymen will understand my definition on the content of Mr. Tony Blair's speech at the Ateneo the Manila March 23.

Boyet Fajardo's outburst

Creative outburst or Artist's temperament is related to the realization of their craft. Fajardo's unjust reaction was not due to his frustration in his craft but more on his bruised ego when asked to present an ID to verify the credit card with no affixed signature.

SUCCESS AND SACRIFICES "The Call Center Life"

Many often think that being a call center agent is a breeze, walk in, talk for a couple of hours, have a couple of cigarettes, go drink with friends after shift and go home, and get a huge paycheck on payday. This is the common thinking amongst those earn work for a living, compared to those who earn to maintain their lifestyle.

RP’s jobless rate

I’ve just read about the "RP's jobless rate rises to 7.7% in Jan”, the news have shown that the waves of economic recession had already strike the Philippines with ease penetration against our developing yet still weak economy. Through its figure it also speaks of the dependence of our economy with the labor force that only 35% percent are not dependent or least effected sector such as the agriculture.

Incompetence of police in Phils and abusive mediamen!

IN the first place, these people working in media are abusive. These days they don't care whether you deserve privacy or not so long as they get what they want. They brag about investigative responsible journalism? No, they are just like the paparrazzis who prey on innocent civilians.

Frenchman brings ancient Filipino martial arts back

Medyo nakaka-insulto po itong article na ito sa Pilipino. Imagine, isang foreigner at isang  Pilipino ang nagsabi na sa labas pa ng bansa nila nakuha ang martial arts style na kali. At lalong nakaka-insulto na sasabihin na ituturo pa pabalik sa atin.

The Pope denounces condoms

Leave it to The Vatican to set back Modern Civilization. Condoms slow down the spread of STDs. That's a fact. Condoms also stop the spread of over-population. That's a fact.

To the writer of ‘The Government of Mrs Arroyo’

Greetings to all: this is a message to the originator of this article. First of all, I will call you an Overseas Worker from the Philippines, not an overseas FILIPINO worker. In your own words that you uttered. You are ashamed of being a Filipino you don’t deserved to be called a FILIPINO because Filipinos have dignity and nothing to be ashamed of being one.
