HOW TO DEFEND THE PHILIPPINES?

[XxMatchuxPaulxX]

Who gives.... ALL PHILIPPINE GOVERMENT= CORRUPT <3 Yha the Elites pay politicians so the elites get to have laws that favor there business.. I love Gloria but she made some of my frens unhappy especially the smuggling business

[XxMatchuxPaulxX]

I dont know what the fuck is going on down there even though i live in Makati.. Well The American Dollar is weak because of Americas forgein trade defecit. Which means america buys more than they sell. America can do that because there are always responsible and pay back. Who gives a hoot about GMA, This country is always going to be corrupt and its impossible to change it.... I love how you can do w/e you want as long you know the right people...

[PhilBarroni]

BITAYIN SI TRILLANES! Mga bobong mahihirap lang ang anti-GMA. Yung mga walang trabaho magulang at mga mangmang gusto nila kay erap kasi binibigyan ng bigas at sardinas pamilya nila sa squatter na hindi ginagawa ni GMA. BITAYIN SI TRILLANES! TORTURIN PA! PATI SI GUINGONA!

[666conqueror666]

Sisihin nyo yung retarded na sundalo na si Trillanes. Sya palagi yung nangugulo sa Makati, mga kabayan. Hahahahaha.

Problem: Corruption

Solution: Death Penalty

Result: DEDBOL lahat ang Politiko (ARROYO No.1 Corrupt)

[delarmente702]

Let the Chinese TAKE OVER the Philippines, that would solve the problem, will see how united the Filipino people can get united.

Is it true there are about 13 Wealthy (Noble) Filipino Families that rule the Philippines?

[maxnanabas09]

chinese chines philippines is independent country asshole

[delarmente808]

You ignorant pauper! I know the Philippines is an independent country. I was trying to relate is that the P.I. is beyond a 3RD world country. P.I. is in a constant political upheavel. And yet the rich get richer & the poor get poorer. Why is the majority of Asia prosperous yet the P.I. in the past century w/it's help from other countries are still an embarrassment to Asia Countries. What can you say, Go Manny PACQUIAO? Get an education and go 2 S. Arabia? Sad it's own country can't provide jobs.

[maxnanabas09]

i agree with you that philippines can`t provide more job for us but i am saying that our country is independent

[delarmente808]

If...there is a positive in the Philippines not being being prosperous like JAPAN, CHINA, TAIWAN, MALAYSIA, VIETNAM ETC. I can only say is that P.I. are very religious/faithful Christian country who has hope in God. About China...P.I. is so divided with political chaos the past 100 yrs, I was trying to post is that China should take over. So we maybe UNITED. China has already taken over 93% of the business in Manila, while the local filipinos owns sari-sari stores. WOW?

[maxnanabas09]

you are absolutely wrong the ayala family owns 60% of the bussiness center in the philippines while the robinson family owns 30% of the bussiness center in the philippines and the remaining 10% is from the other investor like your country and other country too

[JPRittle]

if it weren't for the spaniards, the philippines would have ended up being occupied by china. Maybe then would PI have become more stable and prosperous.

[badjake]

kung currupt c Arroyo bkit na pa baba nya ang dollar at sobra dami nya project na napatupad. khit cno nman maging pangulo cgurado ako un parin ang sasabihin mo eh. bat hndi mo sisihin ang sarili mo?

[jkdmama]

arroyo is in no way responsible for weak the dollar. the dollar is weaker because of the american economy and not the result of a better philippine economy. please be educated before you defend these "ladrones'".

[samtihnwong]

so who do you want to defend?

[simplychristian21]

Let's pray for them nalang.., mas maganda pa un kaysa sa mambintang tayo,,

[shandrew29]

ang gobyerno ang tunay na terorista!!

[triskelionAKO1968]

[pedigree1277]

[dHacker711]

Kawawa naman mga biktima sa TRAHEDYA. GLORIA di na NAAWA, di ata naniniwala sa KARMA. SUHULAN SA PALASYO NAGLAHONG BIGLA dahil sa GLORIETTA

[odilfucksyou]

huwag nyong sisihin ang gobyerno, hindi nila yan kasalanan... kung magsisihan na lang man, manalangin na lang.... Put God first in everything you do.. pray always.... dito samin, ngaun lang na buwan, binomba din kami... 1 ang patay tapos madaming sugatan... magdasal na lang ho tayo mga mahal kong Filipino...... di po tayo pababayan ni GOD!!!!! ( from kidapawan city, north cotabato)

[mxael]

do something we still have our goverment right?

[dang031]

you know, it was a deviationary tactic ng government.. para ma-deviate yung attention kay GMA..

masyado na kasi mainit yung topic about the "suhulan" ng government..

whew.. grabe naman sila.. pati mga innocent nadamay.. tsk tsk tsk..

better na lang to pray for all the victims of the tragedy..

[ragemild13]

C4? RC bomb was placed in the gasoline tank to detonate that shit. sneak around the delivery area and diretso sa generator room!

[CrusadeThree]

Kung hindi ito aksidente. Sinong mga grupo na laging pinupuntirya ay Makati? Sino ang mga nangugulo lagi sa Makati? Sino ang mga grupo na dating ginawang war zone ang Makati? Sino ang nagtanim ng mga BOMBA sa Makati (Oakwood)?

Sino ang unang pumutak? Iyon ang Umutot!

[cornkernel]

i agree. masarap naman talaga mabuhay sa dyan sa Pinas. lahat ng hanap mo andyan na. sobrang politika lang talaga kaya lumulubog ang lahat. nakaka-irita na tuloy minsang manood ng balita. sila-sila nag-aaway. tapos ang end result, ang mga regular pinoy, kayod ng kayod, mahirap pa rin ang buhay. pakshet! mag-papasko pa naman.

[kiderz]

bombers use approximately 10-15 lbs. of C-4.....

[slowjamzdj]

i was stunned after i read the news and saw this tragedy here from the clip..i've no idea if the terrorist lowlife dead beat connected w/this bombing or just the bldg LP explosion,,seems to me that the FBI would assist the solve this fire and explosion forensic science...i'm pretty sure that it would be revealed from the FBI whose behind all this explosion within a week or less...

[artrigor]

S. O. S.

Lets save our nation. Unity not division.

Use our pen not our weapons. Love not hatred.

Mutual co-existence not elimination.

Law and justice not crime and cover-up.

Calm not chaotic. Progress not destruction...

Prosperity not poverty. Philippines, the pearl of the orient. Tha land of the morning.

Cradle of noble heroes. Sun blessed. Blue skies. Star studded sun blessed islands. Lets save our only country. Phillipines my Phillipines. God save the nation.

[richardjamelom]

Oh my philippines, sarap pa naman sana mamuhay sa pinas, Politiko mismo nag papahirap sa buhay natin sila sila nag aaway sa senado parang mga mabatang nag aaway sa isang laruan. Im sure personal na away ng mga pulitiko ito.

[artrigor]

Thru the victims blood and suffering will rise

patriotic Filipinos who know the truth that our country is being destroyed . We must liberate our country from its corrupt system who makes Filipino life miserable. Rise up young noble Filipinos. Not by the sword but by writing and exposing the anomalies of corrupt government thru the internet. Lets shame them all!

[emitel28]

it shouldnt be the innocent pipol who is suferring!! if they hate the government, it should be the malacanang where they put the bomb!!

[JayRdL08]

they should have cameras all over the mall in the philippines... and how the hell did the people get in and planted those bombs without anyone knowing??

[Athiskemon]

Here in Cebu Ayala mall has cameras but don't know if they're using it 'cause it looks like they're not.

[CambridgeFOUR]

ONE LOVE ONE LIFE

[carlohapon]

ako hapon.

but, I think, this terorizm by NPA.

thats why,makati.

[gilpvaldez]

Nakakatawa yung mga guard.

Lahat sila, hindi alam ang gagawin.

Parang, "Ano ba tong pinasok ko?"

[darknessvolt]

Meron kahit Anti-bomb S.W.A.T. Pero kahit papaano 8 lang ang namatay........

[ilovejhelen]

Kahit na 8 yun, sayang pa rin! MAS MABUTING WALANG MAMATAY! MAS MABUTING NAIWASAN TO O HINDI NA LANG NANGYARI!

[rickypogi2007]

8 lng?LANG?buhay pa rin un noh!!!!

[verin18]

meron....

[Athiskemon]

Diba sa ganitong pangyayari dapat may bombero? may bombero ba naka respond?

[shikititay]

well, sa atin kapag may sunog lang may bumbero eh walang sunog so wlaang bumbero..tipid daw kazi..

[richrui]

pare dont blame anybody ang gawin mo nalang magdasal nalang tayo na wala nang mangyari ulit na ganito. alam naman natin na d na magbabago ang pinas! DASAL KA NA LNG!

[ret2082]

hmmmmmmmm gawa lang yan sa pangulo nang bansa!wala na kasing matinong pangulo dyan sa pinas eh!!!

[philben03]

ano bang nangyayari sa bansa natin, di kaya para ma-divert ang usapan sa suhulan tsk tsk

[cornkernel]

Rustans area pa man din! at oo pati dun sa side ng Glorietta 2 come to think of it, ni isang metal screener walang nakalagay. sobrang napabayaan ng management!

[cornkernel]

dapat lagyan din dyan ng metal screeners tulad nung nasa main entrance! or better yet dapat lahat ng entrance lagyan! mayaman naman ang ayala bakit hindi lagyan lahat ng ganun?! yung entry sa SM Makati side merong screener, yung entry sa baba galing sa Landmark meron ding screener, sa taas papuntang walkway ng Greenbelt meron din. dyan sa may Rustans area ang wala! ano yan tinitipid?

[theCGFinalCut]

Is it Plain Terrorist or Government Terrorist?

[ret2082]

both of them they are terrorist!

[shikititay]

This is about ECONOMY and POLITICS! Economy is doing very well so far (more jobs/stronger peso)and then all of a sudden this BOMBING...Gas petroleum will go up and so everything specially the USD. Who does this evil after all?. We should tighten more the securities in all the establishments pls..

[dannyboyster]

Relax na relax ang mga pulis makati ano? talo pa sila ng mga security guards; at least may sense of urgency. tsk tsk.

[shikititay]

10/19 - merong number na 9 at 11...OMG!

[cornkernel]

oooo, oo nga no. creepy!

[shikititay]

Kaya be VIGILANT also on the dates and much possible to avoid those numbers. Seemed may trend sila sa mga dates..Haka-haka lamang kaibigan so 11/09 (might be one possible date), 12/19, 01/19..Hay katakot de vah but something like this, for sure they have put more time bombs somewhere so BEWARE and put extra measures.

[manuelsuplico]

Just like Frapo888, both sides may be accused. that's what is hard about it; there are many possibilities. Opposition may have done this to further destabilize the gov't or the Administration may have done this to distract the ZTE deal and the mysterious 500,000 pesos given to the Administration's supporters. It's a confusing thing. WE JUST NEED COOPERATION IN EVERYTHING.

[philben03]

correct! baka gusto nila madivert ang usapan sa suhulan at syempre sabihin na naman ng gobyerno eh mga destabilizer... tsk tsk tsk...

[Frapo888]

I will never side with anyone.They work hand in hand.I'm sure one of us who knows so much about what is really going on inside this administration will lose a life.This is not new anymore.Dami nang buhay nawala, who wanted change.Whatever you say,i respect.That's your opinion.We can only do so much but pray for those innocent lives lost and wounded.

[manuelsuplico]

Nung sumabog diyan nasa school ako.... nakita ko na ang mga blinds ng windows namin gumalaw ng bigla. Naisip ko baka may earthquake tapos ina-nounce sa school namin na may sumabog na bomba dun sa Glorietta mall.

translation:

When it exploded there, I was in school..... I noticed that the blinds of the windows in our classroom moved and shaked for about 1 mins. I thought it was an earthquake but then it was announced that the Glorietta mall was bombed.

[Frapo888]

I will never side with anyone.They work hand in hand.I'm sure one of us who knows so much about what is really going on inside this administration will lose a life.This is not new anymore.Dami nang buhay nawala. Who wanted change.Whatever you say,i respect.That's your opinion.We can only do so much but pray for those innocent lives lost and wounded.

[cocoy888]

Anti-gloria conspiracy theorist blame everything in to gloria pero la namang contribution except self interest and leftists ideology. Kayo naman ang tama palagi diba? while the islamo-facist terrorist and communists are depending on you (conspiracy theorist/anti-gloria peeps)so that they could go on and would not be blamed for these dastardly acts. So kudos to you people! You people make our country worth leaving :) I hope this would open our eyes so we can solve the main problem - "ourselves"

[Frapo888]

We can say anything we want here! The thing is, all these ranting and raving about,will only divide our country and not do us any good,which is good for whoever is behind this. since ako mismo seen so much,i swore never should've heard nor seen any.I guess it's up to U to be oblivious about all these things.

[gerryspina]

SINADYA ni Jose Pidal Yan...

kitamo, iiskerda n nman yan si tambok

[rb020282]

putang ina talaga may gawa nito walang puso at demonyo na gagawa nito, pananghalian pa naman puro alikabok mamatay na may gawa nito

[umbalito]

@Frapo888 - that is BS. You have it the other way around.

This is a plot by idiots in the opposition to further destabilize the gov't.

[rb020282]

putang ina talaga ang may gawa nito hayop walang puso at demonyo di na tao gagawa nito tanghaling tapat at pananghalian pa nampotah puro alikabok .........

[chidose]

to those who are thinking this was one of those terrorists acts.. then think again open your minds it maybe one, but it could also be a conspiracy, a desperate act to divert our attention to the real issue..

[arki7777]

gago. you and your political assumptions. let the police do their work first. PTina.

[chidose]

huh did i conclude yet? did i say so that my assumptions are true enough?? perhaps it maybe pointless for you.. but hey! im just speaking of possibilities thats why ive said it maybe one.. but it could also be the other one??

[zel777]

this is the realization of oplan greenbase, perpetrated by the top ranking officers of the armed forces so that gloria could declare state of emergency. post script- death penalty for graft and corruption!!!

[08babaylan]

or not..dont blame it all to 1 person..let us put on high hopes..it could really be a terrorists' attack.

[DarkMoonBlossom]

dude, she wouldn't sink that low to do that...

it's a terrorist attack for sure...

[paovin]

How I wish that Mrs. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo will reintroduce "death penalty" for those terrorists. They have to die for if they not, a lot more will do. PGMA, please declare a state of national emergency because this is really a serious matter. I hope that this would be a lesson for all in he government. These can be avoided if are law forcer gained a high level of security but I also believe that high level of enforcement can never be done without a tragedy here in the Philippines

[paovin]

How I wish that Mrs. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo will reintroduce "death penalty" for those terrorists. To those terrorist "DO YOU KNOW THAT I WANT YOU ALL TERRORIST TO DIE. IF THE GOVERNMENT WILL JUST PUNISH YOU ALL, I WANT THEM TO GET YOUR EYES IN THEIR SOCKETS!! DETACH YOUR FINGERNAILS!!! CHOP YOUR BODY INTO A HUNDRED PIECES!! KILL YOU SLOWLY BUT BRUTALLY!! THEN AFTER THAT, YOUR WOUNDS MUST BE FLAMED! AND IF YOU"RE ALREADY DEAD,, YOUR BODY SHOULD BE USED FOR FEEDING PIGS!!!

[tuberodatcom]

bisaya ka pa brod..di mo pa alam nagsasalita ka na agad na isang van ng bomba...hahahaha....GLORIA...G­LORIETTA....simply the greatest conspiracy happened in the history of the philippine government...

[mmycastle]

It's still too small to be "the greatest conspiracy." If this is a conspiracy by someone or some people, they need a lot more than this kind of bombing. You need something like what just happened in Pakistan against Bhutto.

[xshizzlesx]

tarantado may gawa neto.

[shumackers]

this is an act of terrorism by are own fellow fil. poor innocent people waste their lives in the hands of those scumbags. This is maybe a call to Arroyos Administration. they must declare a state of emergency because this is a serious matter. these can be avoided if are law forcer gained a high level of security. but no one know when the tragedy comes! let us pray the family of all the victims of Makati Bombing.

[oildriller17]

Blast gifts ni Arroyo!!!

[apengsanjuan]

this is the realization of oplan greenbase, perpetrated by the top ranking officers of the armed forces so that gloria could declare state of emergency. post script- death penalty for graft and corruption!!!

[zanessastella629]

so sad coz many lives of innocent people are affected....hope the govt will do somethnig on this..dont let this happen again, and again..poor filipino people...God pray for us!!!

[cornkernel]

tight security? nagkkwentuhan lang naman yang mga sekyu na yan e. hindi man lang sumasayad sa bag yung mga prodding sticks/garrett nila, tapos pag nagiinspection hindi sa loob ng bag na iniinspection naka-tingin kundi dun sa ka-kwentuhan nya. pag may ganitong nangyari tsaka lang sila sobrang higpit, tapos pag di na pinag-uusapan, balik kwentuhan na ulit sila, useless.

[ryebosco]

GOOD POINT CORN, I've also noticed how our own security guards take their time inspecting their own Filipinos while foreigners (particularily Caucasians) are just waived inside with a smile...

Again, if this act was committed by Filipino Terrorists, then all I can say is to STOP targetting public places frequented by poor Filipinos...PLANT THEM WHERE IT COUNTS AIMING AT THE CORRUPT THIEVES.

[shuushirakawa]

Do you think when you plant a bomb to a building where a "corrupt politician" works and it explodes, it wouldn't affect anybody else? Are you an idiot? You're no better than the ones who perpetrated this crime.

[ryebosco]

First of all, I AM better than the "ones who perpetrated this crime" because I am no criminal nor a murderer.

And I'm not an idiot. I'm practical and believe in utilitarianism because it's not a perfect world. Innocent lives are lost everyday. But if lives are being lost, I'd like to see corrupt politicians be included in the death toll on the news.

[shuushirakawa]

What I'm irked about is when you said to "PLANT THEM WHERE IT COUNTS" as though you're advocating someone to bomb someone.

[ryebosco]

lol, no, obviously we all care about the Philippines, i'm just sick and tired of the tragedies and hardships...deep down i'm optimistic and the Philippines will rise to greatness...but i'm still for the DEATH PENALTY to the magnanakaws, bombers, kidnappers, rapists, etc...

[shuushirakawa]

Hahaha! Utilitarian ka nga. I'd also want corruption to be rid off but not that way. :D

[cornkernel]

korek korek korek... at eto pa.. yung pintuan ng glorietta dyan sa ayala side katabi ng rustans, babaan ng mga tao galing ng ayala-paseo area... yang pintuan na yan ang dapat bantayan. kasi lahat ng commuters na bumababa dyan pumapasok. kaso dyan din madalas naka station yung mga walang kwentang sekyu na daldalan ng daldalan.

[Frapo888]

Dude, i totally agree with the latter...it's so easy to manipulate the public.  In broad daylight! it's a shame with the kind of people we have in the government. well not only in our country but everywhere. So evil, so pathetic, so corrupt, so desperate. All these (with more than a hundred of innocent lives lost) for one's own "GLORY" (pun intended).

Dang!

[katou]

i think the real problem with this country is that too many people pretend to know things without really knowing anything at all.

take Frapo888 and his intended puns for example...

[ryebosco]

i think the real problem with this country is theft and corruption and that too many people know this problem yet are too stupid and scared to confront these corrupt thieves...ENLIGHTEN US, WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU KNOW THAT WE DO NOT? Tell us what the root problem(s) is/are and give us your take on how to resolve it. Here's mine:

Problem: Corruption

Solution: Death Penalty

[shuushirakawa]

Do you think the solution to this current problem is more chaos? Rumor-mongering isn't exactly a solution.

[ryebosco]

no, a simple DEATH PENALTY to those who are corrupt will solve the country's problems

[shuushirakawa]

So tell us then. Do you have actual facts that tie directly to this incident? Or are you just spouting anger from your ass?

[ryebosco]

You're damn right I'm angry out of my ass. You really think justice and facts exist in the Philippines to benefit the 80 million suffering Filipinos? You're looking for actual facts? That's like saying Ninoy's supposed lone assassin penetrated through a tight security to kill murder him and that Marcos and his cronies were not behind it and never stole money from the Philippines. It's common knowledge and common sense that will solve our problems.

[Frapo888]

Not that laying blame is ok,this horrendous scheme is obviously a plot to pull us away from feasting on gloria's amorality and profanity,along with her dirty rotten cronies.HOw do you think these terrorists got their armaments & food just by staying hidden, no income at all?!They're supported by these officials.WAKE UP PEOPLE! Sad to say MURA NA ANG BUHAY NG TAO NGAYON w/her power and 'GLORY'.Let's not be NAIVE!

[Frapo888]

Sad to say MURA NA ANG BUHAY NG TAO NGAYON w/her power and 'GLORY'.Let's not be NAIVE!

[ryebosco]

How could this happen? In an upscale mall? And security is supposed to be tight before entering any malls in the Philippines? Either Filipino security are very inept or this was deviced by the government in order to avert issues of corruption and impeachment. (Para ma-iba ang usapan.)

[shuushirakawa]

Wala ka na bang ibang sasabihin? Ito rin yung comment mo sa isang video ah.

[ryebosco]

wala, talagang uulit-ulitin ko kasi mga tanga tayong pilipino at paulit-ulit din ang balita't pangyayari sa pilipinas

[shuushirakawa]

You're not helping with your conspiracy theories either.

[ryebosco]

call it what ever theories...it's plain common sense: either this is contrived or the security guards failed in their duties...

the assassination attempt against enrile and the plaza miranda bombing during the marcos plundering era should tell you how naive you are about Philippine politics...

[shuushirakawa]

I'm merely stating that sowing seeds of chaos finger-pointing doesn't help now. You're just pattern-matching without getting actual facts that are directly related to the incident. I'd call that conspiracy theory.
