watch my videos regarding the media and it's influence to the masses and politics. the media is one of the most corrupt institution in the country

[markopoDX]

Yup. Hanggang ngayon puro Chinese na lang dito sa Pilipinas. Mas mayayaman sila dito sa Pilipinas kaysa mga Pilipino.

Mga negosyante, karamihan pag-aari ng mga chinese. Paano na ang mga Pilipino eh lupa natin ito?

Marcos did a great job during his term. It's the filipino people who didn't do their job.

@markopoDX actually I believe what Stopjehabl is speaking of is not that if your Chinese national you can also get Philippine citizen ship, but what I am speaking of and I think you are directing is that, these people R Chinese or Inchik, with legal papers to own businesses, so infact these Chinese are not Filipinos they are Chinese businessmen possing with Philippine Citizen papers to do business in Pinas, I dont call them Filipinos i call them community raiders who take money out or our areas

@markopoDX great comments again sir !

[zeppaify]

@stopjehbahl actually MarkopoDx is conceptionally correct, Filipinos are a mix of the original peoples mixed with Spanish Blood named or baptised in the Catholic church as a Filipino named after King Philip of Spain, Chinese blood came by way of castaways and or migrants, we are not a Chinese colony or part of China, When people have Chinese Blood it doesnt mean your higher than the Philippine Race in Philippines Filipinos come 1st not Chinese becasue if your proud to be chinese goto Hong Kong!

[stopjehbahl]

@markopoDX If these Chinese businessmen aren't Filipino citizens then how do you think they're able to own business in the Philippines? You have to be Filipino to own a business in the Philippines.

[stopjehbahl]

@markopoDX ...them. It's so hurtful to think that some of those who call themselves as the true "Filipinos" still have this ignorant sentiment about Chinese ethnic Filipinos. They might be Chinese in ethnicity but they are no less Filipino than you. What constitutes a Filipino to you? Being 100% Malay in ethnicity? The fact of the matter is I hardly think there's anyone left in the Philippines who is 100% Malay.

@markopoDX I really don't like to speak much about the role of Filipino-Chinese in the community but this is getting really exasperating. I think this sort of racist rationale is the very problem why who you ignorantly call "Filipino" are so poor. The truth is it's these "Chinese" people who gave jobs to many people and accumulated their wealth through their own hard work. Chinese businessmen are always portrayed so negatively in Philippine media thus creating an image like what you have about..

@markopoDX - great comment i agree to this

Marcos did alot for the common Filipino, and he also make it worth while for college graduates to progress, not just work for the chinese, becoz this country is for Filipinos, if you are proud to be Inchik go live in China, but if you are proud to be Pinoy well then dont forget Filipino is brown blood power, that is what makes us and gives us our look, Marcos is Philippines 1st, and i beilieve in that like all LOYALISTAS, Marcos Pa Rin Kami!!

Magaling si Ninoy pero opportunista siya. Si Ninoy magpapagamot lang sa US pero ano pinili niya magstay na sa States at di na daw siya babalik. Iniwan niya ang pinas. Opportunista siya kasi ng marinig niya na may sakit si Marcos, gusto niya siya ang sunod na maging presidente at matagal niya ng dream yon! Kahit alam niyang papatayin daw siya, umuwi pa din siya. He's willing to "die" for the cause. He wants to play like THE HERO but sorry for him, it was just a wrong decision and it was stupid.
