Will PLDT-Ouch that Smarts next marketing move be to charge consumers per word spoken over their telephones? They probably has the bugging facilities anyway, what with Pangilinan pal Lacson being so on the defensive he may not have time to be offensive. But then again he is quite that, eh? Though not for the Senate. Although not quite as offensive as counsel for a certain telco.

Free speech impaired by the telcos? Wala na, EDSA 4,5 and maybe even 6 are now in a state of peril as it may soon be too expensive to have a revolution spawned by text. So again the capitalist-fascist pigs have taken the helm and are making sure life under Marcos is never forgotten. How? By having a Telco chief who makes us live the Viuda Loca, in digital hell.

Why did the Senate under "Groggy" Pimentel Speakership conveniently forget Pangilinan's PLDT and its role in WIRETAPPING the Senate during the Impeachment hearings? Manny, sabi nila ayos na yata yun kaso mo kontra sa mga mamamayan ng Pilipinas. What kind of crony would we be if we forgot that the only good crony is an Indonesian crony...TEKA!! Isn't bribing a President a crime anymore??? Pls. fit below. With compliments of the people of the Republic of the Philippines where we have the BEST politicians manny, oops, money can buy....

Is EDSA IV coming soon, courtesy (again) of the Senate of the Republic of Bananas? That, or a coup by a heretofore unknown faction within the ranks unless the Senate discards egos and focuses on the country, something they refuse to do now.

"Mister Pangilinan", said the interviewer. "Excuse me, that's
METER Pangilinan to you, boy...."


Impeach court asks police, PLDT exec (THAT MEANS YOU, METERMAN!), journalists to explain wiretapping story. Here

"Testifying in a special hearing of the impeachment court in the morning, Lacson only revealed the identity of the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company employee who made the screen prints of online billings of senator-judges and prosecutors in the impeachment trial, opposition and civil society leaders, and a number of journalists." (The phone taps at the Senate. How quickly did the dolts forget?)

So quick to make a bully, este, Billy ad, yet so sneaky in announcing a price change in texting. That's your friend manny.... A readers comment.

According to Gideon "Giddy" Javier of the Clean Air Coalition, Filipino men's balls shrink as an effect of exposure to toxic waste.
(We think, though, that they really, really shrink when it is time for good men to come to the aid of their country.)
Given the governments relative inaction to support the efforts by Col. Vic Corpuz in resolving the country's biggest drug problem, it is now pretty obvious how many members of their so-called august but we prefer to say "aghast" body have decided to let him fight this on his own. Does the entire Senate suffer from the Syndrome even without being exposed? It's the WA-BOLS syndrome, and it's all over this land.

Should Filipinos sit and watch as seemingly only one man tries to right what is wrong, while the other branches of government just send text messages that do not work, as they are using the "dumb" card. Meanwhile, what about the story of "imprisoned Fatty and his new night nurse". True or not?
Write your comment on the wailing wall below.

President decides to unseat SSS Man to please the frothing crowd of bureaucrats and born-again "honest" employees who went against their sworn oath to serve the public in order to forward their own. Unfortunately, the President's political decision not to publicly support Nanagas spelled doom to all in government who want reform, including the three Filipinos at EDSA Dos.

"Ako ay Pilipino, Ang Pilipino ay ako lang " at wala ng iba. Pinoy ako, ako at si ako lang. Kaya puede akong magtapon ng basura kahit saan, kahit kailan. Pwera lang sa bahay ko. Saka na ang bayan, basta ang Pilipino ay ako!!! Kami lang ay pwedeng maging Pinoy. SSS strikers.

Stand by your man in this country only refers to husbands pala. And only when your political career is on the line. Otherwise, let large-scale corruption rear it's ugly head. After all, we don't want to lose the cutesy image just to improve a nation's economy, do we now?

Inangkin na nga ang langit pati lupa inagaw na rin!! Ang alamat ni "born again na, land grabber pa"?! Mayroon bang ganyan? Oo naman. The same kind of person who would keep a brother from the deathbed of his sister and with the help of his pastor, physically BAN the same from his own sisters wake. Yan ba ang born again? Hindi naman lahat. Yun mga 'influential' lang. Then again, he was only getting instructions kuno from his Catholic boss with the Marcos type WWII medals. Ganito pala noon Crusades. Lesson for all: never argue with a person who hears orders from God. To think that not even little Manny da P claimed that(yet). Although it is a major miracle to get a telephone in this country....

Telephone companies complain about Phone Bill. What? Have the tables turned? Nah, just some sneaky politicking on the part of some senators and congressmen who are bound to make the juicy killing. And now, one of the guiltier ones is sounding off on any TV/radio station to get defensively arrogant. Siya pala yun bill proponent, which in Manila means malaking kinita at kabibisto lang.

Shall we welcome the old-but-new Behest-na-behest na favorite congressman natin? Nah. F*** him, man.

Sources claim a certain barbaric Metro Manila Mayor to lead book-burning, will round up all academicians, degree holders in effort to eradicate all traces of past in his city.
Also, residents of this city will be made to forget all the old street names and memorize new street names, ( all named after obscure relatives, rambotito-style) in his effort to "modernize" the old city. He was quoted as saying "We will not stop bulldozing, tree-cutting and tearing down anything older than forty years as these are symbols of the old Philippines." His next targets, include an old hotel, which he claims has been transformed into giant panceteria, as someone said, and the monument to a national hero. The Erapus-era Mayor claims the national park where the hero was executed stands in the way of a Shopping Mall which he claims will be a happy place and not remind people of the sad moment in history when a hero was executed by the country's invaders. "It's ok, we will name a sandwich after him, so he is not forgotten", the "best-mayor- money-can-buy" claimed. We think it's government officials like him that are driving the people out of the country, but that is only our opinion.

Sixty pieces of Imelda Marcos Roumeliotes jewelry pieces (which is twice what Judas got) valued at a mere $5 Million. La Viuda Loca insulted, threatens to sue the Customs Bureau. "Ano ako, chipipay?" Gi-ingna ng buang na Waray. She then threatened to have her cosmic forces abduct the people involved and turn them into brainless nitwits. Scientists doubt her ability to do this, however, as the persons involved were already categorized as morons and stated that turning them into nitwits would be tantamount to a promotion.

Local Music scene hurt by PLDT acquisition of GMA. The price to pay for congress allowing a monopoly? Why should they care about Filipino music? They are Indonesians. Of course they will kill the local Pinoy music scene.

Phone Metering??!! Yes, again!!! OR, please call me cause I can't afford to call you.
At the rate business is going who needs phones? The Marie Antoinette of the telecom industry gets greedy and decides to turn landlines into cell phones. NTC hearings begin 15 August. Aghast consumers are invited to attend. See how the TELCO lawyers badger the government into giving in to their demands. Watch how they turn Zero plans into cash cows. Speaking of which, in the meat industry this is what you would call double dead. First you pay your ISP, e.g. Infocom, per minute. Then pay your #!?@#%$^ telco, e.g., PLDT per minute again.

Pizza delivery boy strangled by dangling telephone line
By Jerome Aning ,PHIL. DAILY INQUIRER July 18, 2001 Page A23
A PIZZA delivery boy on a motorcycle died in a freak accident in Ermita, Manila before dawn yesterday. He ran into a severed, dangling telephone line that caught him in the neck and strangled him. The phone line tightened around the neck of Rolan Nolasco, 21, as one end was caught and pulled tight by a passing jeepney, strangling the young man and dragging his body on the street, said SPO4 Virgo Villareal of the Western Police District homicide section. (Sad but true. So what else is new?--ed.)
Makes one wonder about what foreign consultants that work for a telco think of incidents like this. Usually, the Japanese would never take it, the Brits would fly off their handles, the Americans be all so concerned about the rights of the aggrieved. But they are in Manila, where life is cheap and they own the media. Apparently, it is a lot easier to leave their consciences back home.

In the spirit of transparency, you may want to ask these simple yet unanswered questions:
How many cronies are now state witnesses?
When a crony turns into a state witness and is given immunity, does that mean he gets to keep all the money he stole?
Will taxpayer money be used to pay for his protection and lifestyle?

MONOPOLY: the PLDT story
by Sheila Coronel [reprinted with permission]
Got plans after the stressful week?

From the pldt vs. pldt archives, a horror story:
On cross-examination by Cruz, Lavides admitted that PLDT has been advertising its own website pldt.com.ph since 1996 up to the present, on radio, TV and print media, even prior to the creation of Kaimo’s pldt.com website in December 1998.

"The biggest stumbling block to the country's development is the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company". DOTC former Sec. R. Reyes (The Philippines may be the only country in the world with PLDT public pay phones inside private homes as allowed by "relaxed rules" of the National Telecom Commission. We are sending this data to the Guinness Book of World Records.)
