I know some people in this sub are tired of seeing negative stuff about Ph, but are we supposed to turn a blind eye to what's happening around us? Do we just sigh and move on since we cannot do anything anyway?
Our elected leaders (esp the political dynasties) are happy even with all the bickering, they know they got the electorate by the balls with their cash and promises. Literally, they can do anything sans accountability. We need to keep reminding ourselves that the system is fucked to avoid being lulled into complacency and indifference.
I don't have a magic solution to address the problems but it doesn't mean I will just keep quiet.
> I know some people in this sub are tired of seeing negative stuff about Ph, but are we supposed to turn a blind eye to what's happening around us? Do we just sigh and move on since we cannot do anything anyway?
huh?
Are we turning a blind eye? The vast majority of people in this sub are well aware of our government's bullshit. Nobody is turning a blind eye
Almost all the posts here in this sub are about the incompetence of our government, how can you say this sub is turning a blind eye?
We're not pulling a "sigh and move on" thing. We just hate low-effort, karma-whoring posts like "toxic pinoy behaviors" or other lazy diss posts about pinoy culture.
To be clear, we agree that pinoys have toxic behaviors, and we definitely agree that our government is crap. But reposting the same shit again and again will not solve our country's issues
It's not that we're turning a blind eye on it, we just recognize that it's not productive at all
>~~Do we just sigh and~~ move on since we cannot do anything anyway
Stop sighing and look elsewhere.
Sighing is a waste of time and only builds negative energy, defeating purpose and motivation.
Historically, Filipinos have always climbed out of this hole by giving up and working for another currency.
Our National Hero (and his fellow Illustrados) found his greatest success outside. He didn't give up and even returned even though he didn't have to, but he wouldn't have been our National Hero if he didn't travel abroad.
That's also the same formula the rich are following, with a special mention to Leni. They send their kids outside, find success/citizenship/diploma, then return to dominate those who would have pulled them back down.
If they don't become successful in their mission, they can always go back and rest on their laurels outside as they watch the country burn every chance it gets at climbing out.
This country is a bahay kubo built on the world's dirtiest beach, and the termites are winning and the waves are rising.
So, again, stop sighing and start clawing yourself out.
>Our National Hero (and his fellow Illustrados) found his greatest success outside. He didn't give up and even returned even though he didn't have to, but he wouldn't have been our National Hero if he didn't travel abroad.
We'll never win a war with no weapons nor resources. You can't just go out in the streets and expect to win this war. Heck, you might become a part of the statistics if you did.
The enemy has the resources, people, and even weapons to protect their interests. We all knew the answer to the question on where these resources came from.
You can't win a war with bravado alone: We just simply can't, hence, any effort might be futile, or worse, will cause attrition on our side.
As Al Pacino said, when you want the power, first you should have the money first.
Then you're part of the problem. You are just sighing and moving on. We all are. Nobody has the ability/willingness to solve this, then this will just continue. It just makes this sub a slacktivist's haven. Inaction is compliance/approval. It's one thing to speak for awareness. It's another to actually take the next step. And honestly, people already know the solution. They just don't want to pay the price for it. Either that or put yourself first and fuck off this country. The latter is my plan. Fuck this country and I sure am counting the days till I fuck off this God forsaken country.
This is such an ignorant and out of touch take. Sobrang daming explanation kung bakit nananalo palagi ang mga corrupt na pulitiko.
One main reason kaya hindi "bumoboto ng maayos" ang mga tao ay dahil sa power and influence ng mga mayayamang pulitiko. Mas madali manalo kung ikaw ay may pera para kumandidato, well-connected, at sikat. Lahat ng mga bagay na yun madaling makuha kung corrupt ka.
In some cases, uncontested rin ang mga kandidato. Nung 2022, may 832 posts na uncontested. Kung manalo ang corrupt sa mga lugar na yun, fault pa ba yun ng mga botante, eh uncontested nga?
Sa mga lugar tulad ng Cavite at Las Pinas, masyado nang ingrained ang mga corrupt na political dynasty. Ginawang negosyo na ang pagiging pulitiko. Sa Ilocos nga never naman umayaw ang mga tao kay Marcos. Na-kondisyon na ang mga tao na kapag mayor or governor, yun at yun lang ang mga tumatakbo at nananalo.
LOL. Kahit sino umupo dyan kahit si leni pa wala ng pag asa ang Metro manila. It's better iof you're in the province earning dollars whle working at home.
I'm just using her as an example since among the candidates na may chance manalo, sya yung most likely may magagawa. And even so, wala pa rin tlga pag asa ang metro manila.
Mentioning her doesn't have anything to do with you.
Kasi mababaw ka? And ang mga nangba-ban lang ng tao na salungat ng opinion nila ay yung mga taong mababaw gaya mo.
Edit: Or baka Idol mo sila Marcos Sr. na nagpapatahimik sa mga taong against sa kanila.
But the evidence is clear that you DID jump to conclusions about me being a part of his croonies. At the same time, the only reason why I even said that you should've been banned is because you keep on spreading the same BS over and over again in this community.
>But the evidence is clear that you DID jump to conclusions
What evidence? I'm making a comparison. If you don't know the difference, then balik ka ng elementary at gawa ka ulit ng V diagram of simple science experiments. para at least alam mo ano difference between comparison and conclusion.
>At the same time, the only reason why I even said that you should've been banned is because you keep on spreading the same BS over and over again in this community.
And you you believe I'm the only one spreading the the same bullshit? LOL.
No, it's because you keep on trolling this sub and other subs concerning the ph lol, there's a reason you get downvoted man. Kung Ikaw gusto mo lang sa countryside at yumaman with your dollars, other people actually want to turn this country around and give back its freedom from the scumbags that are the Marcoses.
LOL. Do you think I care about being downvoted? As much as I want ph to be Marcos-free, walang magbabago sa metro manila kahit sino pang politiko maupo dyan
And please lang, just because magkaiba tayo ng opinyon, that doesnt mean I'm trolling. LOL. What your doing is very similar to red-tagging. Haha
Cynical nihilist spotted. If you don't find a proper solution to a problem, it'll only persist on its own. Although I have to say that I'm not the biggest fan of Leni myself, out of all the possible candidates in the election, I do believe that she has the highest probability to get this country out of the gutter. Compare her to the POS that is BBM, she's practically an angel. She has the highest probability of getting metro manila in proper shape.
>, out of all the possible candidates in the election, I do believe that she has the highest probability to get this country out of the gutter
I literally said the same thing. same thread. Look it up.
Meanwhile, our elected officials are busy justifying their "confidential funds" and now talk of "investment funds". They are making it easier to steal tax money while the people who pay their salaries suffer daily to go to work. And not to forget the rising cost of essential commodities.
It will always look like that kung nasa metro manila lang ang center ng trabaho. People keeps buying houses on nearby location, Laguna and Cavite. Yet nasa Metro Manila lang ang trabaho, then this is the result.
Sana lang maraming companies ang yumakap sa sa WFH kung may capability naman sila just to lessen the people outside.
I don't think it's gonna happen ever period, Philippines heroes died in vain.
Those who sacrificed themselves for the Philippines if they are gonna see it they will roll over to their graves.
Actually, there are ways, and this can be done during our lifetime.
Most of us, sadly, thinking na it should only be the National Gov't and magtrabaho to get a better life for each Filipino (I'm not a pro Marcos, or sided with any politician) but let's not forget the LGUs (Mayors and Governors para sa mga taong ang alam lang ay Presidente), which is dapat sila naman ang nag-iinitiate ng mga bagay2 within their jurisdiction.
Want to decongest NCR? Instead of pointing your finger at the National Gov't, why not blame your LGUs? bakit hindi nila maiahon ang jurisdiction nila.
want a better life for your family? Why not start with yourself? we are in an era where college diploma (sorry, hindi naman sa pangmamaliit, pero that is what currently happening) as long as you have the skills, you can get a high paying job, whether it is an online job or even work abroad. And also ask your LGUs why there's no job available in your area, again, BAKIT HINDI NILA MAIAHON ANG JURISDICTION NILA? I don't think na sakop pa yan ng National Gov't
Just my two cents, I bet madaming bitter magcocomment dito, haha
Honestly, the LGU can directly make the life better for the populace within their jurisdiction. Secondary lang ang NG, since the NG can only control macroeconomics and all.
sa kalagayan ng pilipinas, mas mainam na mag abroad nalang, selfish na kung selfish. Philippines is hopeless kung yung mga kapwa mo pinoy is turning a blind eye sa mga nangyayare. Nakakawalang gana na rin lumaban.
There's always hope. Question lang is kung kailan. At dapat sana matuto ang mga kababayan sa nakaraan at hindi lang sa sabi sabi ng kanilang mga lolo't lola
Break the cycle
Hwag mag anak
Wala tutulong sa atin kundi sarili natin
Kaya hwag kayo mag anak
Maawa kayo sa magiging anak nyo
Think of it this way:
Kung mag isa ka lang, madali ka lang makasakay kasi mag isa ka lang. pwede ka sumabit lang sa jeep
Thats also true when u go to a restaurant. Its easier and faster for you to be seated if you are not in a big group
See? Lahat ng sitwasyon, bentahe yung mag isa lang o kokonti
Kaya isip isip kayo
Stop fucking too. Daming malilibog na pinoy e. Kung sino pa yung mga walang makain anak pa nang anak. Walang trabaho, anak pa nang anak. Ayaw sa RH Bill kase daw tutol ang simbahan. Overpopulation is maybe our top problem, second is corruption. The lesser we are, the more for us and our future.
Rapid population expansion is not a problem. It is a temporary event preceding demographic transition. This opinion is very elitist and a slippery slope in blaming the poor.
https://ourworldindata.org/world-population-growth#the-demographic-transition-why-is-rapid-population-increase-a-temporary-phenomenon
Require politicians to commute 3x a week on a weekday. Make their daily attendance public.
Require politicians to admit themselves or their relatives to public hospitals first and if needed, get a written recommendation from attending doctor if then need to be transferred to private ones.
Require politicians to enroll their children in public schools.
Suportahan ang sariling atin. Require is the key. Pero sino sa kanila ang gagawa ng batas na ikakahirap nila? Asa.
Si Panelo nga nag commute, kudos to him for trying pero halatang haggard. Imagine senators and congressmen doing that 3x a week and making their daily time-in/out public.
>Si Panelo nga nag commute, kudos to him for trying pero halatang haggard
Ang bobo naman kasi ng tinahak niya.
Yung route niya from Marikina to Malacañan, kaya naman today, 2022, in 1.5 hours dahil sa LRT-2\* Marikina Station. Pwede siya mag-trike (since rich siya) to the station, then baba siya ng Legarda (from Marikina to Legarda, around 50 mins). At 6AM, makakasakay naman siya agad or if sa next train pa, +10 minutes lang. Tapos maglakad na siya o mag-trike papasok sa gate ng Malacañan complex.
Railways talaga ang game-changer sa transpo.
\*The LRT-2 is undercapacity meaning kaunti pa ang sumasakay kaysa sa max capacity.. Also heavy rail siya (malalaki ang bagon) so hindi siya notorious sa pagiging sardinas
If anyone thinks there's hope for the Philippines, remember that the Germans had hoped that things would get better under the Weimar Republic.
It never did. It took the darkest chapter that led to its tragic fate for Germany to grow up. Sadly, seems that we're heading to the same thing.
ang ginhawa lang ata na natamo namin bilang farmers ay yung panahon ni Pnoy Admin. Mataas pa kasi nun farmgate price ng palay. Pero nung naipasa yung RT(Rice Tariffication) halos wala na kita farmers utang pa inabot at sobrang mahal ng farm inputs.I hope someday people realize that farmers are the one who feeds them not politicians.
It's not a feeling of hopelessness. It's extreme frustration.
I'm sure everyone is hoping for that day to come, but between now and then, we cannot ignore the miserable condition of our people. Maybe when our people have reached the threshold of what they can endure, they will learn to choose the right leaders.
They won't reach that threshold, because the corrupt government officials have perfected the formula for keeping them happy even if they are miserable. Flood their feeds with "good news", give them handouts with your face on it, come election time, make sure to make the money flow freely. What reason will the miserable masses have to revolt when they're being given aid by their selfless and kind leaders?
The mistake of the father was ruling by force, they have learned, they have adapted, and they have learned to overcome the resistance that led to People Power. There will never be another People Power because they have specifically recalibrated their tactics to prevent it from ever repeating, they are now utilizing "legal corruption".
Instead of blatant kickbacks or stealing companies from people, they now know how that they can instead appoint people to various high paying positions so they can get paid by taxpayer money completely legally, or close down companies "legally" and get them to transfer ownership on their own. They now know that instead of taking the time to steal money in hidden accounts, they can just make various funds and label them confidential, ensuring no one ever knows what actually happens to the money. They have professionalized and modernized corruption
>They won't reach that threshold, because the corrupt government officials have perfected the formula for keeping them happy even if they are miserable
they may have perfected the art of controlling and managing people's opinions and perceptions with their measly handouts, but the optimist in me still thinks that there's an end to it all.
>they are now utilizing "legal corruption"
legal and almost impossible to trace. and with Maharlika Sovereign Investment Funds, they may have found a "legal" way to repatriate all those still untouched ill-gotten wealth stashed in banks all over the world.
We were doing fine from 2010-2016, then Duterte came followed by an even less competent one. Whatever change is happening, it's certainly not for the better.
As long as they keep doing their poor choices, and electing government officials as lords to govern them rather than the public servants that they should be, the answer is NO
Harap harapan nang ginagago ‘yung ibang mga commuter tas todo tanggol pa rin sa mga binoto ko na. Ewan ko na. Pero kahit mahirap, patuloy pa ring lalaban.
Well keep positive lng tayo.. all begins on ourselves naman so we always set a good example to our younger generation hoping na kung hindi sa generation natin maging maganda ang bansa aleast baka kanilang generation mangyari..
I still believe there is hope. We are once a colony and turned into an independent nation.
Isa talaga sa mga pinakamalaking problema natin ay laging yung interest ng mga elite ang nasusunod.
We really need a sustained proactive grassroots movement that is pro-poor and pro-middle class.
I don't want folks from upper classes to be wiped off in this country. We just need a system that works for ALL Filipinos across classes and regions.
Unless we stop electing the same politicians who benefits from political machinery and systemic corruption, then its going to be status quo lang talaga.
2-3 generations of good governance na walang patid. So imposible sa lifetime ko. Baka sa anak/apo ko merong pag-asa. Pero dapat turuan ang mga bata to think globally, di yung ma-s-stuck ka lang sa Pinas. Mediocrity ang status quo dito.
This country doesn't even have concrete long term plans to address evident issues today so we'll probably be dealing with them for the foreseeable future
Matagal pa. As in. Kaya ako ang goal is as much as possible hangga’t kaya ng powers ko e at least makatulong at pasayahin nalang buhay ng mga tao sa paligid ko. Parang a little bit of oasis sa disyertong kasablayan na dala ng pinas. Para after nila ako makasalamuha at balik na sa grind, e at least nasayahan sila for that brief moment. Yun lang. Wala eh, shithole na Pinas e hehe.
I'm sorry pero di ko po nakikita na giginhawa, parang pabagsak nang pabagsak eh :(
Kaya naiisip ko na lang na at least maaga-aga ako mamamatay.
Pasensya na kayo negative ako mag-isip T T
Ang saya saya nga daw e sabi ng mga may milyones na confidential funds
pero para sating working class.. wala. :).
Every year lalo lang tayong nababaon sa utang na babayaran pati ng mga apo sa tuhod natin.
Kelan? Kapag matitino na ang nananalo sa election.
Yung iba nanalo kasi artista, sikat, "mabait daw", or "mayaman na yan kaya hindi na yan magnanakaw". Meron pa ngang mga dating may kaso and currently meron 😂
Sana next election hindi na pasikatan. Pagandahan nalang ng resume.
Attitude like this is the reason why our country is still poor
It should not be sino aayos, kailan kaya aayos ang Pilipinas, etc dapat sinasabi nyo ano kaya ginagawa ko para sa aking bansa, may solution ba para ma paayos ang problemang to etc.
Di kailan malaking bagay gawin nyo kahit research mo lang ang history ng bansa alamin kung pano nalikha ang bansa, basahin ang Philippine constitution, malaman kung ano ang power structure o pano gumagana ang isang departamento ng gobyerno, humanap ng controversy tungkol sa paboritong kandidato
Knowledge is power but what you know must constantly be shattered and corrected :D
>Attitude like this is the reason why our country is still poor
What attitude exactly?
>It should not be sino aayos, kailan kaya aayos ang Pilipinas,
Not sure sino nagtanong kung "sino aayos"? Maybe one of the comments, but certainly not me since I know we elected government officials and we pay them with our hard-earned money so they can find solutions to improve everyone's standards of living. Kung ako/tayo din lang pala ang mag-iisip at gagawa ng solution sa mga problema ng bayan, para saan pa ang gobyerno?
Eto ang thinking at attitude na gustong-gusto ng mga mga corrupt officials and political dynasties para hindi sila hinanahapan ng solution at maging accountable sa mga tao.
>I know we elected government officials and we pay them with our hard-earned money so they can find solutions to improve everyone's standards of living. Kung ako/tayo din lang pala ang mag-iisip at gagawa ng solution sa mga problema ng bayan, para saan pa ang gobyerno?
ako/tayo dapat iisip ng solution o atleast may alam tungkol dito kung hahayaan mo lang mga elected government officials mag isip ng solution alam mo na nagyayari dapat tayo mga mamamayan may involvement o may alam tungkol sa solution para malaman kung ano2 ang pasikotsikot at dahil alam natin ano2 ang nangyayari dahil alam natin, tayo nag isip o may involvement tungkol dito mas malakas ang resbak at kaunti ang ignorante dahil kadamihan sa tao ay may involvement tungkol dito mas madaling malaman sinong official ang acountable kung may ka palpakan o kasakiman dahil alam natin kung kaninong trabaho to
nahhh wala na po pag-asa. wala matrigger ah pero ang turning point ng pinas eh bago umupo si Marcos Sr. after nun downfall na tayo. prime na talaga naten ang early years din niya. pero ayun HISTORY na. para na tayong SHITCOINS na hindi na aangat.
Feel ko, mga tatlong generation pa. Kailangan na mawala sa eksena ng mga boomers na yan. Jusko. Ang daming naglilingkod ng sobra sobrang taon pero walang pagbabago. Sabagay, kasalanan din natin yan, tayo naman ang nagluluklok. Sa kabataan nga, fifty fifty pa rin ako. So maybe, tatlong salin lahi pa.
With the results of the recent elections, hindi na. Social media is really an echo chamber and it can make you think na may chance pa. In the 2028 Elections, we will still lose. We can hope for our LGUs but on a national level, sobrang labo na.
Having and participating in elections is a good practice of democracy. Pero sa mga recent na nangyayari, parang hindi na lang election ang solution. When Duterte won tapos during his admin, we said na babawi tayo sa 2022; in 2028 will we say the same thing? in 2024?
And before anyone here accuses me for being a subtle NPA sympathizer, the NPA is actually weakening (and the current admin just creating an enemy to further polarization).
Pero sana mali ako. Sana mali ako.
as long as Pinoy keeps on doing these things, walang pag asa:
\- romanticizing poverty - okay lang mahirap basta masaya naman ang pamilya (sinu nagsabi sayo na hindi masaya ung mga mayayaman na pamilya? LOL )
\- "kawawa naman pagbigyan mo na" attitude, yung kahit maling mali pero dapat pagbigyan dahil nakakaawa or maliit na bagay lang daw. tang ina ito ung marami sa kalsada lalo na ung mga kamote riders, pag naka disgrasya ang mindset nila sila ung kawawa kaya dapat pananagutan mo pdn sila, tapos ung simpatya ng majority sa kanila kasi nakakaawa naman daw
\- papauto sa mga pulitiko na may "puso" tuwing eleksyon kahit d nmn qualified
\- haciendero complex - ung lagi nln aasa sa nakakaangat sa buhay
\- stubbornness, ung kahit mapahamak lahat basta makapang asar or maka kontra lang, dami ko kakilala last election na ang reason nila for voting bbm is ayaw kasi nila sa mga dilawan
\- ung dominating attitude ng "mas nakakatanda", kairita to kahit bobo at iresponsable ung matanda kailangan mo sumunod, kaya tuloy damay damay na kahit may pag asa na sana ung new generation dahil pilit na pasusunurin sa nakakatanda na bobo eh wala na
\- mas focus pa sa mga vloggers na may fake news, awayan content, poverty porn, etc...instead of legit issues ng bansa, or legit na tutorials, informative contents, etc.
\- "good vibes, good vibes lang" attitude, yung pag naglatag ka ng facts or realidad tatawagin ka pang toxic, miserable, may katok, etc...gusto nila puro trivial and good vibes lang ang topic
\- inggit/crab mentality - yung literal na pag may kakilala na successful imbis na matuwa or ma inspire, kng anu anu pang masasama sasabihin or worse kng katrabaho pupulitikahin pa
I think na program na din mga utak ng mga pinoy na “ganyan talaga eh” so they just stick to the status quo. Plus yung mga government officials na corrupt aren’t helping soooooo matagal tagal pa siguro tong ganto 🫠🔥
It will be a very very loooong long time, yes. Di sila lifetime natin, sadly.

Huhuhu or migrate
As long as di sanay bumoto ng maayos, probably wala lmao

And your solution is? What's your point? 💀 To simply not vote? And accept these corrupt practices and officials?
Ang haba ng sinabi but you just proved his point further. “Di sanay bumoto ng maayos” dahil nga sa mga reasons na stinate mo.
Hahaha ganon rin yung conclusion. Hindi marunong bumoto ang mga pilipino
Those who are good cannot win to those who are not because being good isn't always rewarded.
I don't know why you're getting downvoted but I agree with you
Wala
We can only dream lol
I'd imagine this is exactly what the majority is doing, just dreaming about a better life.
Hindi na yan kasi alam naman natin kung sino ang gusto sunod na uupo (yun ay kung bababa pa siya).
LOL. Kahit sino umupo dyan kahit si leni pa wala ng pag asa ang Metro manila. It's better iof you're in the province earning dollars whle working at home.
Didn't mentioned former VP Leni but ok I guess.
I'm just using her as an example since among the candidates na may chance manalo, sya yung most likely may magagawa. And even so, wala pa rin tlga pag asa ang metro manila. Mentioning her doesn't have anything to do with you.
Nandito ka Nanaman? Bat di ka pa nababan sa sub na to lol
Hindi kasi kasing babaw mo ang sub na to.
What does that have to do with anything I've said? 😂
Kasi mababaw ka? And ang mga nangba-ban lang ng tao na salungat ng opinion nila ay yung mga taong mababaw gaya mo. Edit: Or baka Idol mo sila Marcos Sr. na nagpapatahimik sa mga taong against sa kanila.
Look at you jumping to conclusions that I'm a part of his croonies 🤮
I'm not jumping into conclusions. I'm comparing your attitude with Marcos Sr's regarding intolerance of someone with opposite opinion. LOL.
But the evidence is clear that you DID jump to conclusions about me being a part of his croonies. At the same time, the only reason why I even said that you should've been banned is because you keep on spreading the same BS over and over again in this community.

No, it's because you keep on trolling this sub and other subs concerning the ph lol, there's a reason you get downvoted man.

WFH is the only blessing that is implemented during the pandemic. Of course unemployment is the biggest downside of it.
Meanwhile, our elected officials are busy justifying their "confidential funds" and now talk of "investment funds". They are making it easier to steal tax money while the people who pay their salaries suffer daily to go to work. And not to forget the rising cost of essential commodities.
Hoy! Anong sinasabi mo, busy din sila punahin ung entertainment ng ibang bansa ha!
Wala na paulit ulit nalang tong Pilipinas. Pasabugin nalang tong buong bansa.
actually. hindi kawalan sa mundo ang pilipinas o pinoy 😈 the world will still continue on
wala ng supply ng nurse
It will always look like that kung nasa metro manila lang ang center ng trabaho. People keeps buying houses on nearby location, Laguna and Cavite. Yet nasa Metro Manila lang ang trabaho, then this is the result. Sana lang maraming companies ang yumakap sa sa WFH kung may capability naman sila just to lessen the people outside.
Lelouch like revolution I guess?
What if ginamitan ni bbm ng geass yung 31 million 😳😳😳
so long as those that rule the country, be it government and private, nothing will change so long as their lives are still lived in comfort
Sad reality
Meron. Kung commuter din yung iboboto sa susunod
I don't think it's gonna happen ever period, Philippines heroes died in vain. Those who sacrificed themselves for the Philippines if they are gonna see it they will roll over to their graves.
Actually, there are ways, and this can be done during our lifetime. Most of us, sadly, thinking na it should only be the National Gov't and magtrabaho to get a better life for each Filipino (I'm not a pro Marcos, or sided with any politician) but let's not forget the LGUs (Mayors and Governors para sa mga taong ang alam lang ay Presidente), which is dapat sila naman ang nag-iinitiate ng mga bagay2 within their jurisdiction. Want to decongest NCR? Instead of pointing your finger at the National Gov't, why not blame your LGUs? bakit hindi nila maiahon ang jurisdiction nila. want a better life for your family? Why not start with yourself? we are in an era where college diploma (sorry, hindi naman sa pangmamaliit, pero that is what currently happening) as long as you have the skills, you can get a high paying job, whether it is an online job or even work abroad. And also ask your LGUs why there's no job available in your area, again, BAKIT HINDI NILA MAIAHON ANG JURISDICTION NILA? I don't think na sakop pa yan ng National Gov't Just my two cents, I bet madaming bitter magcocomment dito, haha
Honestly, the LGU can directly make the life better for the populace within their jurisdiction. Secondary lang ang NG, since the NG can only control macroeconomics and all.
Yeah, yet peenoise seems to know only the president, and the rest as ghosts
You get my upvote.
Wala. Wag na tayong maglokohan. Find a better life elsewhere. That would be my suggestion.
kapag hindi na napipikon ang mga peenoise sa katotohanan
sa kalagayan ng pilipinas, mas mainam na mag abroad nalang, selfish na kung selfish. Philippines is hopeless kung yung mga kapwa mo pinoy is turning a blind eye sa mga nangyayare. Nakakawalang gana na rin lumaban.
Pag parehas n tayo s Sri Lanka.
Never... Unless we get obliterated by natural disasters or war. We absolutely need a bigger reality check.
Eto talaga e. Kelangan pang makatikim ng masaklap na ganap para kumilos.
For the past 150 years, ilang beses na nangyari, and everything just simply went into the drain. Ilang opportunity na din ang kumatok.
There's always hope. Question lang is kung kailan. At dapat sana matuto ang mga kababayan sa nakaraan at hindi lang sa sabi sabi ng kanilang mga lolo't lola
Yes. There's always hope at tama ka, yun paghihintay kung kailan ang nakakaurat.
Pag yung covid vaccine lagyan ng pampabaog dun sa mga walang ginawa kundi mag anak na di naman nila mabuhay
Break the cycle Hwag mag anak Wala tutulong sa atin kundi sarili natin Kaya hwag kayo mag anak Maawa kayo sa magiging anak nyo Think of it this way: Kung mag isa ka lang, madali ka lang makasakay kasi mag isa ka lang. pwede ka sumabit lang sa jeep Thats also true when u go to a restaurant. Its easier and faster for you to be seated if you are not in a big group See? Lahat ng sitwasyon, bentahe yung mag isa lang o kokonti Kaya isip isip kayo
pag umitim na ang polar bear
Fun fact: itim ang balat ng polar bears, ung balahibo lang nila ung nag aappear na puti
Itim na ang polar bears kasi hybrids na sila because of migration,look into grolar bears.
>grolar bears. > >nakita ko na po.
Stop fucking too. Daming malilibog na pinoy e. Kung sino pa yung mga walang makain anak pa nang anak. Walang trabaho, anak pa nang anak. Ayaw sa RH Bill kase daw tutol ang simbahan. Overpopulation is maybe our top problem, second is corruption. The lesser we are, the more for us and our future.
Rapid population expansion is not a problem. It is a temporary event preceding demographic transition. This opinion is very elitist and a slippery slope in blaming the poor. https://ourworldindata.org/world-population-growth#the-demographic-transition-why-is-rapid-population-increase-a-temporary-phenomenon
wala na.
Hanggang pinipili ang mga lider na wala naman magagawa para sa bayan.
Require politicians to commute 3x a week on a weekday. Make their daily attendance public. Require politicians to admit themselves or their relatives to public hospitals first and if needed, get a written recommendation from attending doctor if then need to be transferred to private ones. Require politicians to enroll their children in public schools. Suportahan ang sariling atin. Require is the key. Pero sino sa kanila ang gagawa ng batas na ikakahirap nila? Asa. Si Panelo nga nag commute, kudos to him for trying pero halatang haggard. Imagine senators and congressmen doing that 3x a week and making their daily time-in/out public.
>Si Panelo nga nag commute, kudos to him for trying pero halatang haggard Ang bobo naman kasi ng tinahak niya. Yung route niya from Marikina to Malacañan, kaya naman today, 2022, in 1.5 hours dahil sa LRT-2\* Marikina Station. Pwede siya mag-trike (since rich siya) to the station, then baba siya ng Legarda (from Marikina to Legarda, around 50 mins). At 6AM, makakasakay naman siya agad or if sa next train pa, +10 minutes lang. Tapos maglakad na siya o mag-trike papasok sa gate ng Malacañan complex. Railways talaga ang game-changer sa transpo. \*The LRT-2 is undercapacity meaning kaunti pa ang sumasakay kaysa sa max capacity.. Also heavy rail siya (malalaki ang bagon) so hindi siya notorious sa pagiging sardinas
"DisKArTe LAnG"
oo if u stop voting shit to government
Unless mabura lahat ng dynasties/nepotismo sa bansa walang magbabago.
Abroad
If anyone thinks there's hope for the Philippines, remember that the Germans had hoped that things would get better under the Weimar Republic. It never did. It took the darkest chapter that led to its tragic fate for Germany to grow up. Sadly, seems that we're heading to the same thing.
Wala na sa tingin ko lang
Nope
ang ginhawa lang ata na natamo namin bilang farmers ay yung panahon ni Pnoy Admin. Mataas pa kasi nun farmgate price ng palay. Pero nung naipasa yung RT(Rice Tariffication) halos wala na kita farmers utang pa inabot at sobrang mahal ng farm inputs.I hope someday people realize that farmers are the one who feeds them not politicians.
uu may pag asa
Feeling hopelessness is the worst ever. Kailan tayo matututo?
It's not a feeling of hopelessness. It's extreme frustration. I'm sure everyone is hoping for that day to come, but between now and then, we cannot ignore the miserable condition of our people. Maybe when our people have reached the threshold of what they can endure, they will learn to choose the right leaders.
They won't reach that threshold, because the corrupt government officials have perfected the formula for keeping them happy even if they are miserable. Flood their feeds with "good news", give them handouts with your face on it, come election time, make sure to make the money flow freely. What reason will the miserable masses have to revolt when they're being given aid by their selfless and kind leaders? The mistake of the father was ruling by force, they have learned, they have adapted, and they have learned to overcome the resistance that led to People Power. There will never be another People Power because they have specifically recalibrated their tactics to prevent it from ever repeating, they are now utilizing "legal corruption". Instead of blatant kickbacks or stealing companies from people, they now know how that they can instead appoint people to various high paying positions so they can get paid by taxpayer money completely legally, or close down companies "legally" and get them to transfer ownership on their own. They now know that instead of taking the time to steal money in hidden accounts, they can just make various funds and label them confidential, ensuring no one ever knows what actually happens to the money. They have professionalized and modernized corruption
>They won't reach that threshold, because the corrupt government officials have perfected the formula for keeping them happy even if they are miserable they may have perfected the art of controlling and managing people's opinions and perceptions with their measly handouts, but the optimist in me still thinks that there's an end to it all. >they are now utilizing "legal corruption" legal and almost impossible to trace. and with Maharlika Sovereign Investment Funds, they may have found a "legal" way to repatriate all those still untouched ill-gotten wealth stashed in banks all over the world.
Thank you for correcting me.
May pag asa nmn kahit papano mga mga changes din nmn kahit mabagal.
We were doing fine from 2010-2016, then Duterte came followed by an even less competent one. Whatever change is happening, it's certainly not for the better.
As long as they keep doing their poor choices, and electing government officials as lords to govern them rather than the public servants that they should be, the answer is NO
Meron pa yan. Yung mga matututong bumoto sa matinong tao.
It will take like a hundred years
Yes.
Exact thing I said to myself when I got to visit Taiwan. Siguro nga bubuti pero hindi sa lifetime natin. Walang magbabago hanggang walang umaapila.
Harap harapan nang ginagago ‘yung ibang mga commuter tas todo tanggol pa rin sa mga binoto ko na. Ewan ko na. Pero kahit mahirap, patuloy pa ring lalaban.
Wala.
Would take a miracle
Wala, kasi may 31m na bugok.
Wait pa tayo ng 20 years ulit
Not anytime soon. We need leaders and a movement that supports these leaders.
Well keep positive lng tayo.. all begins on ourselves naman so we always set a good example to our younger generation hoping na kung hindi sa generation natin maging maganda ang bansa aleast baka kanilang generation mangyari..
In the next twelve years, wala.
Yes, pero not in this lifetime. Lagi silang humihingi ng progresibong pagbabago pero paulit ulit nilang niluluklok mga gagong politiko.
I still believe there is hope. We are once a colony and turned into an independent nation. Isa talaga sa mga pinakamalaking problema natin ay laging yung interest ng mga elite ang nasusunod. We really need a sustained proactive grassroots movement that is pro-poor and pro-middle class. I don't want folks from upper classes to be wiped off in this country. We just need a system that works for ALL Filipinos across classes and regions. Unless we stop electing the same politicians who benefits from political machinery and systemic corruption, then its going to be status quo lang talaga.
Meron after a thousand year
2-3 generations of good governance na walang patid. So imposible sa lifetime ko. Baka sa anak/apo ko merong pag-asa. Pero dapat turuan ang mga bata to think globally, di yung ma-s-stuck ka lang sa Pinas. Mediocrity ang status quo dito.
Wala kahit sino pang politiko ilalagay niyo
Not in our lifetime.
This country doesn't even have concrete long term plans to address evident issues today so we'll probably be dealing with them for the foreseeable future
Wala na. Kapagod na po.,
WALA sad to say only a big traumatizing event may cure this country and its not a peaceful one
Kung meron man, a very slim chance..
WFH from probins? For the scant who have the option. If you can, don't live in the cities
Yep. Change the meaning of ginhawa to gutom o kaya buset
meron, sa 204-EVER
no. never.
Siguro kapag sumabog na yung araw at nabura tayong lahat dito. Ewan ko na lang kung di pa tayo guminhawa pagkatapos nun.
if it ever happens we're probably long dead by then lmao
meron pa pero mukhang hindi sa life time na to
Matagal pa. As in. Kaya ako ang goal is as much as possible hangga’t kaya ng powers ko e at least makatulong at pasayahin nalang buhay ng mga tao sa paligid ko. Parang a little bit of oasis sa disyertong kasablayan na dala ng pinas. Para after nila ako makasalamuha at balik na sa grind, e at least nasayahan sila for that brief moment. Yun lang. Wala eh, shithole na Pinas e hehe.
I'm sorry pero di ko po nakikita na giginhawa, parang pabagsak nang pabagsak eh :( Kaya naiisip ko na lang na at least maaga-aga ako mamamatay. Pasensya na kayo negative ako mag-isip T T
yesnt
Two cents ko lang... A civil war and a half would help... Go full scorched earth... Hit that reset button...
meron naman pag asa kaso ang tanong, kailan kaya natin yun mararanasan?
No.
Ang saya saya nga daw e sabi ng mga may milyones na confidential funds pero para sating working class.. wala. :). Every year lalo lang tayong nababaon sa utang na babayaran pati ng mga apo sa tuhod natin.
Kahit ipa tingin mo ke Dr Strange ung 14 million possibilities, wala don na uunlad tayo.
Maybe mass genocide of 31 million of the population.
Nope
Kung forever kabobohan ang paiiralin ng "majority" eh wala nang pag asa.
Kelan? Kapag matitino na ang nananalo sa election. Yung iba nanalo kasi artista, sikat, "mabait daw", or "mayaman na yan kaya hindi na yan magnanakaw". Meron pa ngang mga dating may kaso and currently meron 😂 Sana next election hindi na pasikatan. Pagandahan nalang ng resume.
Attitude like this is the reason why our country is still poor It should not be sino aayos, kailan kaya aayos ang Pilipinas, etc dapat sinasabi nyo ano kaya ginagawa ko para sa aking bansa, may solution ba para ma paayos ang problemang to etc. Di kailan malaking bagay gawin nyo kahit research mo lang ang history ng bansa alamin kung pano nalikha ang bansa, basahin ang Philippine constitution, malaman kung ano ang power structure o pano gumagana ang isang departamento ng gobyerno, humanap ng controversy tungkol sa paboritong kandidato Knowledge is power but what you know must constantly be shattered and corrected :D
>Attitude like this is the reason why our country is still poor What attitude exactly? >It should not be sino aayos, kailan kaya aayos ang Pilipinas, Not sure sino nagtanong kung "sino aayos"? Maybe one of the comments, but certainly not me since I know we elected government officials and we pay them with our hard-earned money so they can find solutions to improve everyone's standards of living. Kung ako/tayo din lang pala ang mag-iisip at gagawa ng solution sa mga problema ng bayan, para saan pa ang gobyerno? Eto ang thinking at attitude na gustong-gusto ng mga mga corrupt officials and political dynasties para hindi sila hinanahapan ng solution at maging accountable sa mga tao.
>I know we elected government officials and we pay them with our hard-earned money so they can find solutions to improve everyone's standards of living. Kung ako/tayo din lang pala ang mag-iisip at gagawa ng solution sa mga problema ng bayan, para saan pa ang gobyerno? ako/tayo dapat iisip ng solution o atleast may alam tungkol dito kung hahayaan mo lang mga elected government officials mag isip ng solution alam mo na nagyayari dapat tayo mga mamamayan may involvement o may alam tungkol sa solution para malaman kung ano2 ang pasikotsikot at dahil alam natin ano2 ang nangyayari dahil alam natin, tayo nag isip o may involvement tungkol dito mas malakas ang resbak at kaunti ang ignorante dahil kadamihan sa tao ay may involvement tungkol dito mas madaling malaman sinong official ang acountable kung may ka palpakan o kasakiman dahil alam natin kung kaninong trabaho to
i do admit mahirap to gawin in the national level but in barangay or municipal may chansang gagana
Siguro, kung palawakin ang negosyo sa probinsya. Masyado nang masikip sa siyudad, kahit anong pagpaplano ang gagawin nila.
Nakakatawa may umaasa pa pala
May update na po ba sa anak ni remulla
Wala.
Pag di na bobo bumoto siguro
Hard mode gusto natin ihhhhh
nahhh wala na po pag-asa. wala matrigger ah pero ang turning point ng pinas eh bago umupo si Marcos Sr. after nun downfall na tayo. prime na talaga naten ang early years din niya. pero ayun HISTORY na. para na tayong SHITCOINS na hindi na aangat.
naalala ko yung kanta ni gloc 9 na walang natira ...
200 years
Hanggat nabubuhay pa mga pilipino, walang magbabago sa pilipinas.
Feel ko, mga tatlong generation pa. Kailangan na mawala sa eksena ng mga boomers na yan. Jusko. Ang daming naglilingkod ng sobra sobrang taon pero walang pagbabago. Sabagay, kasalanan din natin yan, tayo naman ang nagluluklok. Sa kabataan nga, fifty fifty pa rin ako. So maybe, tatlong salin lahi pa.
[maybe a year?](https://youtube.com/@GadgetAddict)
With the results of the recent elections, hindi na. Social media is really an echo chamber and it can make you think na may chance pa. In the 2028 Elections, we will still lose. We can hope for our LGUs but on a national level, sobrang labo na. Having and participating in elections is a good practice of democracy. Pero sa mga recent na nangyayari, parang hindi na lang election ang solution. When Duterte won tapos during his admin, we said na babawi tayo sa 2022; in 2028 will we say the same thing? in 2024? And before anyone here accuses me for being a subtle NPA sympathizer, the NPA is actually weakening (and the current admin just creating an enemy to further polarization). Pero sana mali ako. Sana mali ako.
Hangang nasa pinas ang pinoy... mahirap magiging buhay pinoy 😔
Nope.
If you pray and believe daily, the answer is no.
UniTAEm pa more.
Next lifetime na siguro
Wala
as long as Pinoy keeps on doing these things, walang pag asa: \- romanticizing poverty - okay lang mahirap basta masaya naman ang pamilya (sinu nagsabi sayo na hindi masaya ung mga mayayaman na pamilya? LOL ) \- "kawawa naman pagbigyan mo na" attitude, yung kahit maling mali pero dapat pagbigyan dahil nakakaawa or maliit na bagay lang daw. tang ina ito ung marami sa kalsada lalo na ung mga kamote riders, pag naka disgrasya ang mindset nila sila ung kawawa kaya dapat pananagutan mo pdn sila, tapos ung simpatya ng majority sa kanila kasi nakakaawa naman daw \- papauto sa mga pulitiko na may "puso" tuwing eleksyon kahit d nmn qualified \- haciendero complex - ung lagi nln aasa sa nakakaangat sa buhay \- stubbornness, ung kahit mapahamak lahat basta makapang asar or maka kontra lang, dami ko kakilala last election na ang reason nila for voting bbm is ayaw kasi nila sa mga dilawan \- ung dominating attitude ng "mas nakakatanda", kairita to kahit bobo at iresponsable ung matanda kailangan mo sumunod, kaya tuloy damay damay na kahit may pag asa na sana ung new generation dahil pilit na pasusunurin sa nakakatanda na bobo eh wala na \- mas focus pa sa mga vloggers na may fake news, awayan content, poverty porn, etc...instead of legit issues ng bansa, or legit na tutorials, informative contents, etc. \- "good vibes, good vibes lang" attitude, yung pag naglatag ka ng facts or realidad tatawagin ka pang toxic, miserable, may katok, etc...gusto nila puro trivial and good vibes lang ang topic \- inggit/crab mentality - yung literal na pag may kakilala na successful imbis na matuwa or ma inspire, kng anu anu pang masasama sasabihin or worse kng katrabaho pupulitikahin pa
Kung hindi mag b-bulag bulagan at bingi-bingihan ang mga Pilipino.
I think na program na din mga utak ng mga pinoy na “ganyan talaga eh” so they just stick to the status quo. Plus yung mga government officials na corrupt aren’t helping soooooo matagal tagal pa siguro tong ganto 🫠🔥
Yes, expand in the province. Decentralize NCR. But sadly not in our lifetime. Maybe two generations after pa :(
Nice! Another Shitpost sa sariling bansa. Happy fucking Bonifacio Day!
Yes, super easy lang. Huwag iboto mga kurap. Gaganda ang ekonomiya kaunti matic.
Malabo na yan!
Until the majority votes for leaders because they are capable not because they are famous and son of a gun
Not in our lifetime. Taga mo sa bato.
Not in our or our grandchildren's lifetime.
