Kung tatlong beses ka nang nakulong dahil sa plunder sa magkakaibang administrasyon, hindi pamumulitika ang tawag diyan.

KAWATAN KA TALAGA, JINGGOY ESTRADA.

Dalawang beses ka na nakalaya, sana gumawa ka na ng tama kaso nagnakaw ka pa ring kupal ka. Dasurb.

Ang key to winning is to win in NCR, BL and Visayas with hugeeeeeee margin. Walang pag asa sa Mindanao honestly. It will take a generation to wipe out yung kabobohan sa lugar na yon

May El Niño ba sa utak ni Lustay?

Parang wala na kasing mapiga even an iota of understanding on how oil prices actually work.

Free naman magbasa kung may time pero hindi magawa?

Ghorl, dependent ba ang presyo ng langis sa kung saan ito binili?

You make it sound like the Philippines is stuck with the Middle East. Sila lang ba ang may langis? What about the other oil-producing countries outside the region?

Yes, a large portion of our imports from the Middle East is crude oil; but the Philippines also sources from other suppliers like Russia, Malaysia, and other countries (possibly Latin America and Africa).

For refined fuel, we import from Malaysia, South Korea, Singapore, China and other regional suppliers.

Which means: may alternative sources na ang Pilipinas.

So, tanong: since may alternatives tayo, bumaba ba ang presyo ng langis?

HINDI.

Because oil prices are not determined by where the Philippines buys.

Prices are set by global benchmarks.

We can switch suppliers all we want, but if global prices are high, mataas pa rin ang presyo sa Pilipinas dahil private sector ang nagse-set ng presyo depende sa kung magkano ang bili nila. Alangan naman malugi sila. (Oil Deregulation Law yan).

So, the claim that prices will keep rising unless we find alternatives to the Middle East speaks more of your brain’s capacity to understand the oil market.

Even countries that don’t rely on the Middle East are affected because the market is global.

And like I posted before, the Philippines is a price taker, not a price setter. We don’t influence prices, we follow them. Hindi naman tayo member ng OPEC+ to be able to influence the price.

Kahit saan pa tayo bumili, kung mataas ang presyo sa global market, mataas pa rin ang babayaran natin.

So, again, remind us, bakit gusto mo ulit maging presidente kung basic global pricing mechanics hindi mo gets?

A reply to Jesus Falcis
Fact is
Malaysia only got a green light for its ships Specific Malaysian-owned tankers (~7 vessels, mostly trapped ones- 3 Petronas, 2 MISC, 1 Sapura Energy, 1 Shapadu).

The Philippines explicitly sought and received a formal understanding as a "non-hostile country," which provides a policy-level "shield" for its entire energy supply chain (from Hormuz), its oil supply, and every Filipino at sea (within their jurisdiction) .

The Philippines did not copy Malaysia.

Different scope. Different level. Independent diplomacy.

Both countries achieved real results, but let’s keep the facts straight: the Philippines secured a comprehensive shield for its entire fleet and seafarers, not just clearance for a handful of ships.

No need to credit one country for “showing the way” when each pursued its own track under Iran’s non-hostile framework. ✌🏽

[MartieBoymoder @Render1ng1898]

My dislike for China starts and ends with its policy on the west Philippine sea. If they didn’t much care for Philippine territory, they’d make an excellent partner, but well they’re instead pushing us more towards the United States

[Para Bellum @ReHorizon3]

Thank you, President @bongbongmarcos! This is one step towards energy independence. Next should be our exploration in the Recto Bank in the West Philippine Sea, also the Sulu Sea near Palawan, and in Philippine / Benham Rise. It is ours, we must tap our own oil and gas resources.

[Bob Blues Magoo @MagooBlues]

I hate the Marcoses but I hate the Dutertes even more. But the gas prices are no ones fault but Trump and Netanyahu. And those creepy Ayatollahs. So give it a rest!

Peso has been falling ever since though?

[✴️ marts ✴️ @martspng]

ang saya noh? the US—who is waging this war and bombing the global south, and yet it’s the peso and likely other currencies that get weaker. that country takes and takes and takes and bomb those that it takes from until it is frail and dying.

[Kylington @bracketcrowls]

Those US Bases are the sole reason China has yet to attack us at face value.

[Poe Derridameron @ilovechrissia]

This kind of response really confirms the issue that the USA is using the PH as a missile base/aircraft carrier with which to threaten China, and we will be dragged into their war if we don't kick them out.

[Kylington @bracketcrowls]

US >>> China. The “neither” is ideal but realistically we can’t.

[marv @mvn_dn]

Filipinos who dismiss this conflict because we are far away don’t get how may US bases are here (and they’re still building more)

We have received reports of airstrikes which hit Iran. We are in the process of getting more information.

In the meantime, the safety of Filipino citizens in Iran and in the Middle East is paramount. I have instructed the DFA and the DMW to take measures to determine their whereabouts in affected areas and to take immediate measures to ensure their safety.
