@xx_rrluke@ecorreidiuhara Dapat pinasok yan nung PBB Collab 1. Tiyak may laban din yan as BW. Kahit san nman isalpak yan nagshishine. Shunga din kasi minsan GMA.
@Niwa1073@MakaBayanYan True. Lalo e ung panel pa nman nagdedecide ng mananalo jan sa The Clash, ano nman malay ni Jillian jan, oo nakakakanta sya pero sa technicalities nganga yan. May time pa para palitan sya ni Zephanie. Isa pa ung JL hindi nman super sikat ng BYGO. Ok pa kung sa SB19 kumuha.
@King_Mattrest@eNgen_22@genrobbed5016 Parvati purposely threw that challenge so she doesnt need to choose between Amanda and Cirie. And whoever wins, she is guaranteed to go F2.
@Ladsieee Wag sanang gawin ng GMA na tipikal drama to na puro kakawawain bida. Wag gawing tanga at api apihan si Jeni. Kaso mukhang nagstart na. More on kantahan sana at mga showdown. Sana maging Jeni vs Dara yung story, Diva showdown. Wla nman laban si Megan kung talent usapan.
@KapusoCrave@TheClashGMA Anong kabobohan na nman to GMA? Wala na tlga choice? Ang daming mga batikan at legend na singers jan bat ung 2 kinuha. Ok pa kung si Zephanie tapos isang band vocalist kinuha. Kaya nagmumukhang chipipay mga shows sa GMA. Ulol ang prod, from Ai-ai to this?
@perksofbeingHC Im a Michele fan now, but this is becos of her The Challenge performances. Ive watched Kao Rong 3x already & I really cant find any moves she made during that szn. She won because the juror was bitter towards Aubry. But Michele has already proven that she is a high caliber player
Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand
If you’re not familiar with these three countries, prepare to be surprised !
Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand are often grouped together as “emerging Asia,” but each represents a very different economic model, with global implications that are often overlooked.
INDONESIA: resources + industrial ambition
* World’s largest coal exporter (~30%+ of global exports): Critical for global energy security
- Holds ~20–25% of global nickel reserves (critical for EV batteries)
- Shifting from raw exports to processing (nickel export bans): “No nickel, no EV” Indonesia sits at the core of the EV supply chain
- Home to the largest Muslim population (~240M): 12–13% of the global total and larger than the entire Middle East combined
- Palm oil production ~55–60% of global production: Used in food, cosmetics, and biofuels
- Largest archipelago in the world: 17,000+ islands
- Near one of the world’s most critical trade routes: Close to the Strait of Malacca ~20–30% of global trade passes through this corridor
PHILIPPINES: labor + services + global workforce
- World’s 2nd largest nickel producer after Indonesia: Critical for the EV battery supply chain
- Asia’s largest predominantly Christian country (~85–90%)
- A major destination for Western expats (especially American and British)
- ~25% of the world’s seafarers are Filipino
- Remittances ~10% of GDP: $40 B+ annually
- BPO (call center) giant: 1.5M+ employees- Major outsourcing hub for the U.S.
- 7,600+ islands: Challenging logistics, but strong tourism potential
- Highly vulnerable to climate risks: Typhoons, floods, earthquakes
- Young population advantage: Median age ~25 !!!
THAILAND: manufacturing + exports + industrial base
- Known as the “Detroit of Asia”: Produces ~2 million vehicles annually and over 50% of production is exported
- One of the world’s largest rice exporters: Top 3 globally
- One of the more diversified industrial bases in ASEAN: electronics + automotive + chemicals
- Tourism powerhouse: ~40 million tourists (pre-Covid)
This is not one story, it is three distinct economic models, and these are only part of the picture.
Indonesia >> resources
Philippines >> labor & services
Thailand >> manufacturing

@blackdump08@qtsponkzph Problematic ung Dingdong. Dun palang sa PBB alam na na matino yang Patrick. Yung Dong tlga reasons lagi bat sila nominated. Ewan nga bat un ung kinakampihan ng mga woke dito sa X. Lol. Yun na nga ung cheater at gaslighter. Happy for Pat na nakalaya na sya dun.
@Tijana_Barogera Kumukulo tlga dugo ko sa Taks na yan. Mula nung sya naging main setter ng ALE e kangkungan sila pinulot. 4 yrs nagtyaga Ateneo as main setter jan. Wala na pag asa yan haha tapos bigla nag-ala Yoshie Takeshita yan sa PVL no?
@smooooj134380@kapusongkim@imzephanie@GMADrama@Sparkle_GMA Di sya ung typical na pretty face pero malakas hatak nya sa masa. Parang Judy Ann or Kathryn dati, itabi mo sila sa mga mestizang kontrabida nila talo sa ganda pero sa charm at hatak sa masa sila lamang. Mas relatable nga yan e. Di nman lahat ng pinoy e my pangmalakasang facecard
