Tama bang minamadali ang Pax Silica? Kailangan muna ng tunay na konsultasyon sa mga lokal na komunidad, masusing pagsusuri sa epekto sa kalikasan, at kasiguruhang hindi tataas ang presyo ng ating tubig at kuryente.
A portion of the Aeta community's ancestral land in Subic, Zambales was converted into a dumpsite in 2019, impacting livelihoods and the environment.
The Subic LGU responsible for the project said it was unaware that the area was inhabited.

Watching Atty. Ligutan is a reminder of how much expertise matters like imagine if more seats in the Senate were occupied by people with that kind of level of legal competence instead of political surnames, popularity, or celebrity status.
Let’s be factual. There IS a warrant of arrest for Bato de la Rosa. It’s from the International Criminal Court (ICC). There IS a domestic law (RA 9851) that allows local authorities to enforce the warrant and surrender Bato to the ICC. On top of that, the SC had ruled that even if the PH govt withdrew from the ICC in 2019, we remain obligated to cooperate on cases involving incidents prior to the withdrawal.
The NBI and PNP had every right to arrest Bato and the Senate was wrong in coddling him and facilitating his escape.

Bihira ako humirit ng Latin maxim, pero eto parang bagay sa panahon:
Fatetur facinus qui judicium fugit.
He who escapes judgment confesses his guilt.
Ibig sabihin, kung pumuslit ka nang alas-dos ng madaling araw, hindi siguro dahil inosente ka. ⚖️
I still cannot believe we live in a country where Robin Padilla became Senator because people mistake machismo and being a hoodlum for authenticity. Somehow, being “bad” became entertaining enough to be rewarded with power.
May I remind you: he was literally a convicted felon.
happy women's history month. lets keep talking about the women of palestine, congo, sudan, iran, lebanon, kashmir and all those under oppressed states and regimes. world issues are feminist issues.
Angat Buhay now has active relief operations in ten provinces across the Philippines, reaching communities hit by the recent earthquakes and by Typhoon Tino.
With Super Typhoon Uwan, we know we will have to extend again, to places already exhausted, to families who have lost too much, too soon.
Ang hirap minsan magdesisyon lalo na kung relief operations. Where to send food first. Which island needs water the most. Whose homes we can help rebuild, and whose we must ask to wait. Even with all the help coming in, hindi ito magiging sapat dahil ang lawak ng sakuna at ang daming kailangan tulungan.
Hindi tayo dapat ganito palagi. Corruption kills long before the storm does. Every peso stolen is a home left unbuilt, a bridge left weak, a family left unprotected. We keep rebuilding what corruption keeps breaking, and the storm only finishes what greed began. The deeper betrayal is how this greed has left our people so vulnerable.
We cannot keep calling these “acts of God” when so much of this suffering is man-made.
Angat Buhay will continue to do what it can to bring help and hope, but we must also demand better, because our people deserve more than survival.
DENR is the one that gives environmental clearance AND tree cutting permits.
THEY LITERALLY CANNOT INVESTIGATE THEMSELVES BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT ADMIT DERELICTION OF DUTY.
'THIS IS ALL ON YOU': KARMINA CONSTANTINO CALLS OUT OFFICIALS AFTER TYPHOON TINO KILLS 188
Broadcast journalist Karmina Constantino held public officials accountable for the massive loss of life caused by Typhoon Tino, which left at least 188 people dead and 135 others missing, according to the Office of Civil Defense (OCD).
In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, November 7, Constantino condemned those in government who, she said, failed in their duty to protect the public amid the deadly storm.
"The Office of Civil Defense reports at least 188 killed due to Typhoon Tino, 135 remain missing," she wrote. "To all those who should've been responsible for looking after the welfare of our people, but chose not to — THIS IS ALL ON YOU."
Too high a death toll for a country that supposedly learned its lesson already after Yolanda. How we endure all these on our own while keeping local dynasties in power who even profit from our misery is really self-inflicted wound. We need a national wave of green leaders to take over our local and national government.
