@michellemdee@michellemdee , I dedicate this poem for you ngayong Pambansang Araw ng Pagtula. I joined a poetry writing challenge. I hope you like it. Here's the link to my original post: https://t.co/ptTsjf9tJw #wmmmo#MissUniverse2023#MMD#mmdverse
Why is everyone suddenly ganging up on Slater Young as if he single-handedly flooded Cebu?
You all had years to oppose Monterrazas, but you didn’t stop that development. Now that Cebu was underwater, everyone is acting woke and outraged.
I don’t even care about Slater Young or his greed and ambition; but why do people think this disaster started with him? It didn’t.
Cebu’s flood problem has been years in the making, thanks to government neglect of the environment, greedy developers, corrupt DPWH officials, etc.
Why scapegoat one man when the entire system is rotten?
If you really want accountability, don’t just attack one person who is prominent on social media.
Look into the corrupt government officials and the DPWH engineers, the proponents of those flood control projects who made at least 20% kickbacks, and those who issued permits that shouldn’t have been signed in the first place.
These people made hundreds of millions in S.O.P.s and kickbacks while ordinary Cebuanos watched their homes and cars drown in the flood.

Kinumpirma ng Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) ang pagkamatay ng isang Filipino seafarer na nagtatrabaho sa isang cruise ship.
Nakikipag-ugnayan na ang manning agency ng nasawing Pinoy sa may-ari ng barko. Iniimbestigahan pa ang sanhi ng pagkamatay niya.
Ayon sa DMW, naipaalam na sa pamilya ang sinapit ng biktima at nangako sila na magbibigay ng tulong.

Notice how logos recently all look the same?
Not because it makes them look better...
But because of THIS psychological trick that manipulates your brain.
That's why Google, Microsoft, and Airbnb are all doing it.
Here's the full explanation:🧵
The DSWD launched 'Walang Gutom Kitchen' in Pasay City, the first food bank in the Philippines.
Restaurants, fast-food chains, and hotels will donate their excess food to the bank which will be fed to hungry families and individuals. | via @JervisManahan
