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

The continuing comedy of the Philippine Senate and the Corona Impeachment trial.
Atty. Vitaliano Aguirre - How could you respect a person when that person herself does not show respect?
Sen. Miriam Santiago said the prosecutors were "anyayabang, anggagago naman (conceited, stupid)" for saying that they already have a strong case against Corona.
"When I heard the news yesterday, I felt like creeping back to bed and adopting a fetal position, which is the normal reaction of any sane person when he's faced with a world that is crumbling around him. I no longer know what universe I'm in because I've spent 5 years of my miserable adult life in trial court day after day after day hearing civil, criminal cases and special proceedings but I've never seen this done to a judge before," she said.
============================
The impeachment trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona was momentarily suspended on Wednesday afternoon after Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago engaged a private prosecutor in a heated debate over the prosecution's behavior toward the impeachment court.
During the 26th day of the impeachment trial, Senate President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Estrada stood up to ask the identity of private prosecutor Vitaliano Aguirre who was holding his hands to his ears while Santiago was criticizing the prosecution for withdrawing the remaining Articles of Impeachment.
"Yun po ay isang kabastusan dito sa isang miyembro ng husgado," said Estrada. Explaining his actuations, Aguirre took the poduim and admitted that he tried to block the voice of Santiago by placing his hands on his ears because he was "hurt" by her statements.
Santiago said he should have walked out of the courtroom if he didn't want to listen.
"You cannot make those contemptuous gestures and get away [with] it," she said.
Aguirre, however, said that even though Santiago was a judge and they were mere prosecutors, she should have not talked to them that way.
"I did it purposely. Ang pinakaimportante [ay] human dignity," he said.

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. On
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
