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.

Lawyer: Arroyo drops Ampatuans like hot potato

From the Philippine Daily Inquirer. =================== DAVAO CITY—A lawyer of the powerful Ampatuans has come out swinging against the woman who, he said, the clan helped make President. Philip Pantojan said Malacañang dropped the Ampatuans like a hot potato—and even backed the filing of rebellion charges against them despite the purported lack of evidence—in an effort to save face. Speaking with reporters on Wednesday, Pantojan said the Ampatuans were surprised that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s administration turned its back on them despite the purported benefits it had received from the clan. “The government is like Cinderella or Snow White … [It wants to] live happily ever after,” he said. Pantojan said Malacañang had forgotten that the influence of the clan led by Andal Ampatuan Sr. helped make “Gloria” President in 2004. He pointed out that the Ampatuans’ home province of Maguindanao produced a zero vote for actor Fernando Poe Jr., the opposition standard-bear...

A Story Worth Reading

A story worth sharing........... 4 years ago, an accident took my beloved away and very often I wonder, how does my wife, who is now in the heavenly realm, feel right now? She must be feeling extremely sad for leaving a husband who is incapable to taking care of the house and the kid. 'cos that is the exact feeling that I have, as I feel that I have failed to provide for the physical and emotional needs of my child, and failed to be the dad and mum for my child. There was one particular day, when I had an emergency at work. Hence, I had to leave home whilst my child was still sleeping. So thinking that there was still rice leftovers, I hastily cooked an egg and left after informing my sleepy child. With the double r oles, I am often exhausted at work as well as when I am home..
