Social media revolution allowed the rich and the ignorant to take power, using misinformation as its weapon of choice.

ALCANTARA MENTIONS BONG REVILLA

Sacked Department of Public Works and Highways district engineer Henry Alcantara mentions former senator Bong Revilla during the Senate hearing on flood control projects on Tuesday.

“Ayon kay Usec. Bernardo ang GAA insertions noong 2024 na nagkakahalaga ng P300 million, sabi niya po sa akin para kay Senator Bong Revilla na noon ay kumandidato bilang senador sa 2025,” he said.

“‘Yun po ay ayon kay Usec. Bernardo. Never ko pong nakakausap si Senator Bong Revilla, never po,” he added.

Now this is fucking disgusting. So anyone favored by the powers that be get a discount in taxes? Ah well, why do I forget that the powers that be make all the rules....

TIL that "accredited" Filipino journalists are entitled to avail of a reduced travel tax (50% less than the standard). Apparently the Office of the Press Secretary (Malacanang) is among those who have to certify.

There are no laws against being a manipulative, scheming, and self-interested boss. But if these traits manifest as bullying, abuse, or victimization, there is action you may be able to take. https://t.co/rfEIpTn5OD

My column today looks at an unintended consequence of reform: gutting the political party system. Result is national parties are mainly bureaucratic electoral requirements: this explains presidential indifference to Partido Federal affiliation. https://t.co/Pk6P6thkrt

THREAD. Now I can share this. Posting this photo for the first time from May 9, 2022. This was at the PH consulate in Houston as election counsel for the Liberal Party and @lenirobredo
If my Facebook looked like a political war zone in 2016, it was totally silent in 2022.

No lawmaker ever bothered to rename highways named after the dictator Marcos. Why?

[Ronald Escanlar @ezrapound]

@talk2GLOBE it took you more than two hours to respond to my DM. You let me wait for more than two hours, and since I didn’t respond within 15 minutes, you cut clean and abandon the conversation? If you bothered to send bills via email, this tweet would have never happened.

[Ronald Escanlar @ezrapound]

@talk2GLOBE why make it difficult for us subscribers to get our past billing statements? And to think that those statements are ALREADY PAID!!! Just email us the statements, and not send links that don’t work. Some people still know and PREFER using email for important stuff.

[Ronald Escanlar @ezrapound]

@talk2GLOBE Please just send the bills via email instead of sending a link. The bill is not some super-secret confidential document, anyway. And your link is not reliable - sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't.

Do we deserve such sloooow service @DOTrPH ? @COOCLTO why is your service so slooooow? Only ten numbers called in a span of 2 hours?!

napakabagal ng sistema ng LTO Marikina, @DOTrPH Dalawang oras na sa pila, sayang oras! san ba napupunta binabayad namin, bukod pa sa buwis namin?

[Ronald Escanlar @ezrapound]

so @DOTrPH , does the LTO have their own little kingdoms, own little systems per city? Is this how you streamline processes and ensure that MV registration is convenient and consistent across LTO branches?

[Ronald Escanlar @ezrapound]

stupefying LTO. 2nd day of trying to renew MV registration. Only 200 slots per day. With the increase of MVs on the road, you only give 200 slots on a daily basis? Where do our taxes go?

[Ronald Escanlar @ezrapound]

and more stupendous, LTO QC does not recognize the stenciled form I got from LTO Marikina, saying they have a different system. The guy I talked to even implied that the form may be fake for all we know.
