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?) by:

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?

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.
