3 Cost Effective Ways to Solve Metro Manila's Traffic Problem

Image
The Facebook page of ANC 24/7 is asking for its reader's suggestion on how to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem. This got me thinking, "what is the best way to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem?" It's easy to make suggestions, what's hard is the implementation and the cost of implementation. So what is the the best way to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem and the most cost effective solution? Punitive Fines Add caption First of all, any implementation will definitely cost money, a lot of money. The cause of the traffic mess is the people themselves so it's only right that those causing the traffic problem should be fined and the fine should hurt. That way, the fines will pay for the cost of enforcing the law. The fines should start at P500 and goes up every week if you don't pay it within 15 days. To enforce this and prevent people from ignoring the fine. It will be tied to their driver's license or car registr...

Is Piolo Pascual Gay?

The breakup of KC Concepcion and Piolo Pascual started up the rumors about Piolo Pascual being gay again. Frankly I'm sick and tired of this Piolo and KC news. The other day, I was watching TV Patrol and for that half hour the three major news event was former President Gloria Arroyo house arrest. The disbarment case against Sec. De Lima and the break-up of Piolo and KC.

Guess which one had the longest airtime?

To tell you the truth, what does it matter if Piolo is gay? Would it make your life better knowing that? Filipinos can be very judgmental about gays. On one hand, they accept them if they're comedians or beauticians. But other than that, they won't accept them and ridicule them. Maybe because they feel like it hurts the Filipino macho image. Who knows?

Of course, there's this video going around about Piolo while watching the boxing match of Manny Pacquiao.



There's even a photo that is circulating around the Internet about proof that Piolo is gay. One example is this, where supposedly, Erik Santos has his arms around Piolo Pascual.

Piolo and Eric

People basically accepted the photo for what it is. But did it ever occur to anyone that maybe this photo has been Photoshopped? Think about it, why does Erik Santos' arms looks like a gorilla? Maybe because it's fake?

Could it be that the real photo is this?

Piolo and Eric Real

Makes you think twice doesn't it? Maybe Piolo is gay, but don't just accept things about what you see on the Internet. What if he is gay? Who cares? These people should get a life.

No problem about being gay. It's people's natural instinct to get aggravated if people try to fool them.

"How I Met your Mother"'s playboy character was played by Neil Patrick Harris who is openly gay. There was nothing wrong about that. In fact, he was even popular for that role. And still, people continue to watch that TV program. So, I don't really get it why he had to hide. AJG

I agree, but if Piolo was really gay, I think he is hiding it to protect his image for his career.

I doubt the Philippines is ready to believe a gay actor playing a straight man.

It takes a special kind of actor to play that role. Not everyone can be as talented as NPH.

Again. I post what I posted on another blog which features Piolo saying he's a mama's boy-I have no problem with that-, spiritual, and therefore could not be gay.

POST:
Son, being spiritual doesn't stop you from being gay. You're born with it. No external force--not even Jesus, God, Buddha, Goddess or Allah or Zeus or Espirito Santo--can dictate what you were born to be.

Hell, maybe they even made you that way, and it's just us humans who have issues against homo/bisexuality. Lord knows the deities are fickle creatures.

That being said, I still don't know whether or not to believe PapaP's statement that he's straight. It doesn't matter if he says he's not gay. Hell, I know it took me a long time to figure out I liked girls AND boys. Maybe he hasn't figured it out yet either. Me? it took me thirteen years.

PS. I am not hating. In fact, I like Piolo (and his abs <3) well enough. I'm saying, gay or not, it shouldn't be a freaking issue. He is what he is. Lay off people. It's none of your freaking business until and if he says so.

Piolo is very good looking and bubbly. Indeed one of the most liked male celebrity of today. I am looking forward to his movie with Sarah - The Breakup Playlist. I wanted to cover the movie's OST but I don't sing well. I am sharing the lyrics & chords instead. :) Good day ahead :D

Manila - The most Beautiful City in Asia 1950's to the mid 1970's

Welcome Google visitors! If you're looking for old Manila pictures from the 1950s to the 1970s, you've come to the right place. You'll see a collection of nostalgic photos when Manila was in its heyday. Just a quick note, I don't take credit for these photos. Somebody just sent them to me and I felt that it was important that I share it in the hopes that other people will see how beautiful Manila was and hopefully help bring it back to its former glory. Manila when it was the most beautiful city in Asia in the 1950s to 1970s The photos must have been taken in different years, from the mid 1950's to the mid 1960's, judging from the car models (though some cars are pre 1950'd). Where is O'Henry's Coffee and Donut shop in Plaza Sta Cruz (Plaza near Escolta & Reina Regente)? Can you recognize the cars? Chevy Bel-air 1958, Simca 1961-62s, Toyopet 1960s, VW Beetle 1960's, early 1960's Mercedez Benz 220... Take note, naka sapa...

Philippine Business Monopolies

Image
Just read this article on Inquirer.net about Globe complaining that the PLDT and Digitel merger would create a monopoly. PLDT chair Manuel V. Pangilinan on Tuesday hit out at Globe, accusing the Ayala group of monopolistic business practices. “PLDT is not allowed to install phone services inside malls and real estate developments (owned by the Ayala group), despite the clamor from their tenants,” Pangilinan said, noting that Globe was allowed to offer telecom services in these areas. The Ayala group, through its Ayala Land unit, is one of the country’s largest property developers. It operates shopping malls in Metro Manila, Cebu and Pampanga. It's funny how these big companies fight don't they? They talk about the danger of having a monopoly but all these talk are just of course to protect their business interest. In the end, the consumer ends up with the raw end of the deal. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Monopolies have existed in the Philippi...
