there is something profoundly unsettling about listening to a government speak with certainty about progress while millions have become fluent in the language of survival. pang limang sona na to ni bongbong marcos and he just solidified na siya ang tunay na tuta ng mga amerikano!
“The Pax Silica Industrial Hub will create an ecosystem that will have AI at its core.”
An AI ecosystem built on the ruins of a natural one isn’t progress.
Nakapanghihinayang na ang likas na yamang dapat pinangangalagaan ay patuloy na isinasakripisyo, habang ang kalikasan at mga komunidad ang sumasalo sa tunay na halaga ng tinatawag na “pag-unlad.”

There are many reforms underway, and there are real gains that should be acknowledged. But kulang pa talaga ang resulta, especially when measured against the scale of our problems and the resources already available.
For instance, the country now has the largest education budget in our history. In 2026, the education sector received ₱1.345 trillion, equivalent to 4.36% of GDP, making it the first time the Philippines has met UNESCO’s recommended benchmark for education spending. That is a significant achievement and reflects a serious commitment to education.
But a historic budget must also translate into outcomes that learners, teachers, and communities can actually feel. We should be seeing classrooms built faster, teacher vacancies filled, learning materials delivered on time, and funds reaching schools and qualified LGUs without unnecessary delays. We should also see more learners reading, writing, and performing at the level expected of them.
The issue is no longer simply whether programs and budgets exist. The question is whether implementation is fast, coordinated, and effective enough to match the urgency of the challenges we face. #SONA2026
The decision to stop passing system losses on to consumers is a welcome and long-overdue reform. Families should pay only for the electricity they actually use, while distribution utilities must be accountable for inefficiencies in their systems. The call for the immediate amendment of EPIRA is equally important to ensure that this relief is permanent and that electricity becomes more affordable, reliable, and fair for every Filipino household. #SONA2026
no amount of money is worth losing the things that make our country worth living in. our environment matters.
money comes and goes. but once our environment is damaged and our resources are gone, we don't get them back. no to pax silica.
This is the real State of the Nation:
Ang mga pulis ang tunay na probokador. Nananahimik kami sa gilid kasama ang mga myembro ng HipHop United at iba pang mga nagpoprotesta tapos bigla silang naghahahablot indiscriminately. ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS.
Marcos tuta ng imperyalista!
