    Duterte: Emilio Aguinaldo

    Kita na ang katag sa mga Robredo..

    This is a post of an old news article in the Pnilippine Star dated September 20, 2010 written by reporter Ms. Cecile Suerte Felipe. Robredo brands intrigues as 'ridiculous' By Cecille Suerte Felipe | Updated September 20, 2010 - 12:00am MANILA, Philippines - Relatives of former Naga City Councilor Emilio Aguinaldo have blamed Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo for the disappearance of the former councilor. Aguinaldo has filed 50 cases against Robredo, the former mayor of Naga, before the Ombudsman. Aguinaldo has been missing since June 8, 2008. He was last seen going to Manila to follow up the cases he had filed against Robredo. Aguinaldo’s wife Marina said her husband had to sell three pigs so he would have money to go to Manila. Aguinaldo had become impatient with the slow pace of the Ombudsman in resolving the cases against Robredo. “I dont want to think that my husband is already dead. I just want to know what happened to him. We are afraid to ask questions since Robredo is in the DILG (Department of the Interior and Local Government),” Marina said. Aguinaldo had filed more than 50 administrative and criminal cases against Robredo, accusing the former Naga mayor of violating the anti-graft and corrupt practices act. Included in the graft case is the questionable construction of the Naga City Coliseum. Marina lamented that most of the cases are still pending with the Ombudsman. “We could not secure justice from the case especially if they have high connections in the government. But I still hope that we could achieve justice and the truth will come out on the struggle left by my husband,” she said. In its editorial, the Naga-based newspaper Peninsula Monitor urged Robredo to take a hand in the search for the missing city official. Robredo had repeatedly shrugged off Aguinaldo as mere nuisance but it cannot be denied that he, too, had been elected by the Naga City electorate, the editorial read. Robredo has to move fast like the superman of the movies before innuendoes sink deeper in the minds of Naga City constituents still baffled and perturbed over the ugly monument called Naga City Coliseum, the editorial pointed out. Robredo also faces a slew of allegations, among them that he received jueteng payola from the first cousin of his wife, a certain Alex Tang. Another report had it that one of his brothers had some business dealings with Charlie Atong Ang, the disgraced gambling adviser of former President Joseph Estrada regarding jai-alai operations. Robredo was also accused of being a non-Filipino citizen. In 2007, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) issued a ruling that declared Robredo as a non-Filipino citizen. The Comelec said Robredo remained a Chinese citizen because his grandfather Lim Teng, who failed to establish proof of residency in the Philippines. In his response to the Comelec disqualification suit, Robredo said his grandfather later adopted the name Juan Robredo. The Comelec said there was no evidence that Lim Teng was the same person as Juan Robredo. In addition, the Comelec said Lim Teng remained a Chinese citizen since the only proof of his being in the Philippines was Lims arrival on April 2, 1896. It said there was no evidence that would show that he was able to establish his permanent residence here. In addition, the Comelec said Robredo failed to perform any act showing his intention to elect Filipino as his citizenship. (Robredo) is now deemed to have forfeited his privilege to avail of the option of electing Philippine citizenship, the Comelec said. Robredo, on the other hand, laughed off the allegations and said they were merely intrigues being peddled by critics who had been affected by his strong advocacy against illegal gambling. Robredo said the misinformation, which he described as ridiculous, was apparently meant to divert the attention of the public and the government away from jueteng. “Ha ha ha, ridiculous, they should do better than these and those issues came out two weeks ago, it seems the guilty are looking for a diversion,” Robredo replied in a text message. Robredo said he fought jueteng operations in Naga City while he was still mayor. And his accomplishment as the local executive of Naga prompted various sectors to support his appointment to the DILG.

    The Shocking Truth Behind Leni and Jesse Robredo Part 1

    Much has been said about Leni and Jesse Robredo. For years since Jesse’s sudden and tragic death in 2012, mainstream media has had a love affair with the man whose life can only be described as nothing short of inspiring. It cannot be argued that Leni’s phenomenal rise to power owed much to her late husband’s legacy, which was perceived and accepted by many as impeccable and beyond question. Despite being largely unknown outside of his home turf Naga, the stories we have come to hear about him after his demise captivated our hearts. After all, it is not every day that we hear of a man so unbelievably modest and unassuming that in spite of his stature, he kept his feet firmly planted on the ground - in his trademark slippers that quickly became a national symbol of his rarity. Judging from all popularly held accounts, Jesse Robredo could just as well have qualified for sainthood.

    Albeit the popular myth that surrounded the Robredos, there is still much that deserves to be told to the predominantly unknowing public - things that most people are not aware of, things that may have been deliberately omitted from many accounts, secrets too damning that they could effectively alter the common perception, secrets only a Nagueño would know.

    I come from Naga City – a small, relatively obscure place south of Metro Manila that had recently been branded “Robredo country.” So much that every time I ride a taxicab here in Manila and the driver would ask me where I’m from, the easiest reaction to my response would be “Ah, Robredo.” It’s as if the name is synonymous with the place, and you can only offer a silent nod to the popular consensus held about the man responsible for putting our hometown into the map. Something inside of me wanted to speak out. But nah… silence would be much more comfortable. Why waste your time bringing up the truth? It wasn’t at all easy to disagree because it felt as if you were treading on sacred ground and bashing a dead guy’s hallowed memory was tantamount to blasphemy. Hence, the safe and comfortable silence.

    Then Leni became Vice-President. I felt silently enraged, knowing full well that her popularity had been built mostly on lies, and a lot of people are blind to this fact. To many Filipinos, Leni is the meek, humble widow who represented the marginalized, the oppressed and downtrodden majority who lived on the fringes of society. “Mga nasa laylayan ng lipunan,” according to her political slogan. Behind her success is Jesse - whose unique brand of leadership and inspirational back story became a template for those who wished to serve and make a difference - a name that has become a franchise, thanks to a highly effective PR campaign that capitalized on our collective ignorance than on our innate wisdom to determine what is authentic and what is not. But despite all this, I still felt no urge to come out of my comfort zone. “Let it be,” Paul McCartney sang. Her position holds no value anyway. And knowing her, it’s unlikely she’ll make much out of it. So I elected to keep my mouth shut.

    That is, until she started criticizing the President. It would have been perfectly natural to air one’s criticism, given the fact that we live in a democratic country, but what disturbed me was the manner by which she broadcast her displeasure. She did this while she clung like a leech, using the privileged Cabinet position given to her by the President as a means to forward her agenda and hog constant media exposure and mileage. How utterly shameless, I thought. This, on top of her poorly disguised attempts to project herself as something she’s not (those engineered and staged photographs of her taking a bus that have been used to dupe the public into believing she’s a woman of the masses) and her brazen duplicity, which I find extremely appalling. It just so happens, hypocrisy and opportunism are two things I consider most repugnant. Clearly, Leni is being used by some quarters to undermine the government in an attempt to reclaim power. With recent efforts by the international press to portray the President as some sort of a psychopath hell bent on destroying the country, Leni is being peddled as a more fitting alternative to replace Duterte - in effect taking us back to the way things were.

    Duterte wants to know why rape removed from crimes punishable by death.

    Go Digong dapat gyud i-apil ang kaso nga Rape sa death Penalty!!! pero libog lng pud ko mr. president ani nga statement

    "I said I'd stop corruption but I didn't say that I'm going to kill the plunderer. What was in my mind was that corruption will stop and it will stop. Sinabi ko sa inyo hintuin ko iyan," Duterte said.

    WTF! why No death penalty for plunderers?

    Plunder is intentionally excluded by lawmakers, because it scares the sh!t out of them..... another preplanned loophole....

    Para makaduwa sa ilang waiting game..Once, admin changes, acquitted dayon kay gilaming pa man..
    Pero kun madesisyon guilty unya, death penalty dayon... aww sulit jud kaayo..
