I have been looking at the news about the poor people affected by the floods down the Southern Luzon and Visayan Region. Parang hindi pa naasikaso kagaya ng sa Australia na nagdeklara na ng mga state of calamity ang opisyales sa mga lugar na binabahang parang Ondoy. Sabi magdedeklara raw.

Then I read about the new toy of the President- a Porsche ...hanep

MANILA, Philippines—President Benigno Aquino III got himself a new toy—a second-hand, white Porsche—last Christmas.
The acquisition sent tongues wagging that the country’s 50-year-old bachelor leader, who is also a gun enthusiast, has started living on the fast lane now that he is in Malacañang.
The President swapped his old BMW which he bought two years ago to get his hands on the Porsche, according to a source close to Manny Dimaculangan, a friend who arranged the purchase.

Second hand lang naman at pinagpalit pa ang BMW niya. Pero ang pinakamasakit na yata sa mga taong naghihirap ay makaramdam ng gutom habang nakikita nila ang iba na kumakain ng steak. Besides nag-issue siya ng memo sa public officials na hhwag bibili ng luxury cars.

Isa pa  Republic Act 6713 or the Code of Ethical standards for public officials and employees states that elected public officials and employees and their families shall lead modest lives appropriate to their positions and income.This part also bans them from indulging in extravagant or ostentatious display of wealth in any form. 

Kaya nga ba ayaw ko ring nababasa na pinagmamamalaki ng mga movie stars ang kanilang mga mamahaling bag na katumbas na ng pagkain ng maraming pamilya o ang mga bloggers na pinagpaparangalan ang kanilang mga gadgets habang ang mga batang istudyante na walang kakayahang bumili o ibili ay panay buntong hininga na lang. Ang iba ay nagkakaroon ng self -pity. Hindi ko naman sinabing huwag bumili kung kaya pero huwag namang masyadong ibandera. SUS.
Siyanga pala balak kong bumili ng I Pad. Toinkkk. Yong yellow long pad.


Tax Amnesty

Para sigurong sinampal si Richard Gomez sa balitang ito. 
No tax amnesty for Goma.

MANILA, Philippines - The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) reiterated that it is not granting tax amnesty to personalities charged with tax evasion.

The clarification was made by the bureau after actor Richard Gomez, in interviews published Saturday, said that he has already filed for tax amnesty that's been "granted and approved already."

Arghhh Aray.
