@prinkasusa Unpopular opinion: I wouldn't say almost no women serial killer. It just so happened that women are perceive as maternal and caring. Therefore, women serial killer are less likely to be caught. At the end of the day, murder is murder and it will always be morally wrong.

MAY PANANAGUTAN ANG MGA MENOR DE EDAD NA NASASANGKOT SA KRIMEN

Marami pa ring maling impormasyon tungkol sa Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act.

May pananagutan. May proseso. May mga intervention upang matiyak na hindi na ito mauulit.

May pananagutan din ang mga magulang. May tungkulin naman ang pamahalaan—sa pamamagitan ng DSWD at iba pang ahensya—na magbigay ng suporta sa mga biktima, kanilang mga pamilya.

Iligal ang pakawalan ang menor de edad na nasangkot sa krimen at may parusa sa mga gagawa nito.

Ang tunay na hamon ay hindi ang pagpapakalat ng takot at disinformation, kundi ang ganap na pagpapatupad ng batas at pagtiyak na may hustisya, accountability, at proteksyon para sa lahat ng bata.

'HINDI PWEDENG PAKAWALAN ANG MGA SUSPEK KAHIT MENOR DE EDAD'

Senator Kiko Pangilinan extended his condolences and called for the immediate and proper implementation of the Juvenile Justice Law after the tragic shooting incident that occurred at San Jose National High School in Tacloban City on Monday.

Two Grade 9 students, ages 14 and 15, opened fire inside the school, leaving three students dead and seven others wounded.

"Nananawagan ako ng mabilis, ganap, at tamang pagpapatupad ng Juvenile Justice Law. Hindi pwedeng pakawalan ang mga suspek kahit menor de edad. Dapat dumaan sila sa prosesong itinakda ng batas," he stated.

Pangilinan added that under the law which he authored, parents of the suspects may also be held liable. (Facebook/Kiko Pangilinan)

Filipino Authorities seized a Chinese fishing boat near Scarborough Shoal with over 500 critically endangered sea turtles illegally poached by Chinese fishermen.

Meanwhile, China says it plans to build a Marine Nature Reserve at Scarborough Shoal.

What a hypocrite China is!

Nagsalita na naman ang PASAWAY!
Alam mo ba Inday na ikaw ang puno’t dulo ng lahat ng iyan? I’m sure you know that dahil mga kasabwat mo ang mga senators na iyan para masabotahe ninyo ang BBM administration. Di ba, di ba? At I’m sure nagkasundo na kayo na pag ikaw ang naging presidente sa 2028, quits na sila lahat sa kanilang mga kaso!

Bakit ba tayo may DENR? Para legal na magawa ang mga ito?

The antidote to arrogance is not ignorance, but profound humility. It’s the understanding that a whale’s migration, a mycorrhizal network, and a mangrove’s root system represent a wisdom we are only beginning to decode. Our role is student, not master.

PWEDE NAMAN PALA.

A viral social media contrast has been making the rounds, depicting Hanoi before and after planting 1.6 million trees. It is a stunning visual transformation—but more importantly, it shows that trees and concrete can co-exist in a third-world country. 

Between 2016 and 2020, the program "One Million Trees" was rolled out and Hanoi smashed it two years ahead of schedule, ultimately planting over 1.6 million trees across the capital. 

The success was so profound that it paved way into a nationwide "One Billion Trees" initiative running through 2025.

Hanoi's victory is a lesson in progressive urban development for the Philippines. Both are fast-growing Southeast Asian countries caught at the crossroads of rapid growth, dense populations, and extreme climate vulnerability. The difference is not in resources, but rather in political imagination. 

While Manila allows the removal of mature tree canopies for expressways, Hanoi demonstrated that true 21st-century progress builds with nature, treating the urban canopy as critical public infrastructure.

So what can we learn from Hanoi’?

First, we need to move from seedling statistics to living canopies. The DENR allows developers to offset environmental damage by buying thousands of cheap seedlings, a numbers game that does nothing to cool a sweltering city. Hanoi turned down this lazy formula. 

They planted mature, standard saplings that had been chosen for their ability to trap dust and absorb carbon dioxide. Vietnam's policy is that every tree must survive, and it supports it with budgets for years of rigorous post-care. We plant for the cameras and let saplings die in the sun. Hanoi plants to shield the public.

Second, Hanoi eliminated the fragmented planning that plagues our bureaucracy. In Manila, the DPWH builds a road, utility companies dig it up, and trees are felled because they are “in the way." Hanoi integrated its tree-planting directly into transport networks and underground utility blueprints. If an infrastructure design threatens the green grid, the blueprints are adjusted. In the Philippines, the living infrastructure is sacrificed to keep the concrete straight.

Third, Vietnam depoliticized its green spaces. Philippine urban forestry is a hostage to the three-year local election cycle. One mayor plants a pocket park; the next paves over it for a multipurpose gym bearing their name. Hanoi turned urban greening into a permanent civic duty, insulating it from political transitions and integrating it across schools, communities, and conglomerates.

We can no longer hide behind the developing nation moniker to justify the ecological vandalism of Metro Manila. Vietnam operates within our economic bracket, yet they chose to invest in a livable capital.

If we want to stop choking on our own progress, our national government must adopt Hanoi's playbook. 

We must legislate a strict minimum canopy cover per capita for LGUs, making it a metric for the Seal of Good Local Governance. We must mandate "avoidance engineering" in public-private partnerships, forcing designers to map transport links around existing natural assets. 

Finally, the DENR must end the seedling scam; developers must be held financially liable for the value of lost ecosystem services until replacement trees reach full maturity.

🚨 Dear Senator Camille Villar, hindi po ba kayo mag co-conduct ng hearing in aid of legislation...?

...ukol sa 600+ narra and acacia trees na pinutol at puputulin pa sa Quirino Avenue, Manila City?
