PAANO KA HINDI KAKAININ NG SISTEMA?

In his commencement speech to the graduates of UP Law 2026, Mayor Vico Sotto shared that he is always asked by people how he keeps his integrity. They ask for his advice on the age old question of:

“Paano kami hindi kakainin ng sistema?”

As a result, he shared ten things he does or thinks about regularly to avoid being eaten by the system.

Here are the TEN THINGS that Mayor Vico Sotto does or follows to keep his integrity:

1. Preparation is more important than courage.

2. Make a list of non-negotiables and review them regularly.

3. When in doubt, choose faith conscience and integrity over money power and ambition.

4. Study cognitive dissonance and continuously identify how and where it affects you. Your decision-making and opinion-forming.

5. Get out of your echo chamber from time to time.

6. Check your ego every single day.

7. Have people in your life who share the same or similar principles, values, and beliefs.

8. Allow said people in #7 to keep you grounded.

9. Give these people the license to hold you accountable.

10. Have a healthy level of respect but also be willing to go against the status quo.

Then the crowd cheered in applause. 👏

———

I support doing all ten but I would like to personally highlight Numbers 3, 6, and 7! 💯

The Weight of the Aftermath
by Ramon I. Castillo
Antipolo, Rizal

Students survey the wreckage of their education after Typhoon Yolanda. True justice must keep its eyes wide open to the struggles of the most vulnerable. Standing in the thick, suffocating mud of their classroom, these children are not merely looking at ruined desks—they are witnessing the sudden loss of their future.

For those on the margins of society, a disaster like Yolanda becomes a barrier that threatens to bury their right to rise. Inclusive justice means ensuring that no child is left behind in the aftermath. When we prioritize budgets for disaster response and school rehabilitation, we fulfill a vital legal and moral duty: protecting the path to education.

Accessible justice is the commitment to lift these students out of the wreckage, providing the stability they need to grow into empowered and responsible citizens. By investing in their recovery, we affirm that the law is a living, responsive shield for the marginalized.

We must ensure that a child’s potential is never determined by the force of a storm, but by the strength of the support we provide to help them stand again.

DI NA MADADAANAN

The MMDA, at 3:05 p.m. on Sunday, said the northbound stretch of EDSA from Ortigas Ave. to White Plains Ave. was not passable to vehicles as thousands of rallyists gathered at the People Power Monument for the #TrillionPesoMarch against corruption.

Motorists were advised to take alternate routes via the San Juan area.

The protest followed a massive “Baha sa Luneta” rally earlier in the day, where demonstrators raged at ghost flood-control projects.

An interesting read from Reddit, from an "insider" in the construction business. He/She was citing an example, a ₱14M road project which actually cost only ₱3M, the ₱11M being distributed to the SOP "stakeholders."

Pope Francis used his last public address to call for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Even as he was hospitalised, he maintained his commitment to check in on a daily basis with priests and parishioners at the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza City.

Rest in peace.

[Guy Cecil @guycecil]

This may be my favorite message from Pope Francis. May he rest in peace.
