Children, persons with disabilities & ethnic minorities are groups particularly vulnerable to #HumanTrafficking.

Fantastic partnership between 🇦🇺 #ASEANACT, @ASEAN, & @osce_cthb to understand and respond to these vulnerabilities.

Statement of the Liberal Party
11 July 2024

The Liberal Party of the Philippines vehemently demands the immediate and total ban of Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs) in our country. The continued existence and operations of POGOs have become untenable and unacceptable, posing severe threats to our national security and societal well-being.

Lumilitaw sa isinasagawang Senate investigation na malawak at malalim ang impluwensiya ng mga entidad na ito sa ating pamahalaan. Pinahihina nito ang kakayahan nating pangalagaan ang ating mga komunidad at pamilya, pati na rin ang pagtugon natin sa mga krimen at katiwaliang kaugnay ng mga operasyong ito. Malinaw ang dapat gawin: Patalsikin na dapat sa ating teritoryo ang mga POGO.

We call upon the President to address this urgent matter decisively. The time for ambiguity has passed; it is imperative to take a clear and firm stand against POGOs to safeguard the integrity of our nation and the future of our citizens.

[Win Gatchalian @WinGatchalian74]

I urge all stakeholders to unite. By working together, we can build a safer, more secure, and prosperous Philippines, free from the negative impacts of POGOs.

Huwag nating hintayin na kamag-anak, kaibigan o kakilala natin ang mabiktima ng mga puganteng nagpapatakbo ng mga POGO. Ban POGOs ASAP!

China has ridiculously accused PH of causing environmental damage in SCS.

To know who is the actual culprit causing environmental degradation, watch this BBC report by @wingcommander1 on how Chinese poachers have been deliberately destroying coral reefs near Spartlys. 1/x

Apparently, Chinese claim that it was #Philippines who provoked CCG during the recent incident at Second Thomas Shoal. But below is a video, clearly depicting 3 CCG ships harassing a small Filipino coastal craft. How is this a provocation by Philippines? 1/3 @GordianKnotRay

[Armed Forces of the Philippines @TeamAFP]

RORE RECAP | During the AFP's critical humanitarian rotation and resupply operations at BRP Sierra Madre (LS57) in Ayungin Shoal on June 17, the China Coast Guard's use of violence and intimidation tactics damaged AFP vessels and severely injured Philippine Navy personnel. Despite provocations, our soldiers demonstrated remarkable restraint, upholding professionalism and adherence to proper conduct in the region.

I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Basic Income since 2013. Here's a list of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments, unconditional cash transfer studies, and cash dividend research.

The data speaks for itself.
