It all started by the Cojuangcos



Not even the current Filipino media wanted to mention the events in Hacienda Luisita nor the issues that surrounds the Cojuangcos' wealth. Damn, I am too pissed because justice has not been served to the victims of the Cojuangcos starting from 1986 to this day. People in the Philippines would deny Cory did this but she told the Security forces of that time to open fire on her opponents, who were armed-less farmers, most of them from the area of Hacienda Luisita, the dreaded place of the Cojuangcos' hegemony.

Ferdinand Marcos couldn't remove the hegemony. Maybe owing to his friendship with Ninoy Aquino but I know he can't do anything around 1980 or after that because he is sick and dying. Are we fooled by money again?

The Cojuangcos are a powerful political clan in the Philippines. They started to become rich since 1901 when a woman from the said clan was given the treasury of all the infant Philippine Republic than to be located by the Americans during the Filipino-American war. Ever since, they are on a tear even betraying their homeland during WWII like Benigno Aquino Sr and supports the commies soon after the war...

You people can't admit they did these henious things? Well, after 1986, the standard of living in the Philippines dropped significantly, and this is what Marcos knew the country would go down the wire after he is toppled. And what happened in 1986 and this day, we are drowned in Water Spinach fields or in Filipino(Ang hindi matuto sa pagkakamali, sa KANGKUNGAN pupulutin).

Why the Filipino People still suffer?



It's frustrating that I can afford food I want whether I waste my money or not but back in my homeland, things are not flexible, even to a lockout person. The reason? Raising taxes for no reason. Here is the clue. Ferdinand Marcos's presidency never even tried to raise the prices of valuable commodities like rice, oil and has a program of feeding every student nationwide an that's a good deed by what most people think as a corrupt killer.

1986 was the worst year for the Philippines as the Oligarchs led by Corazon Aquino took over and returned privatization, instead of a balance power sharing in the economy. Why? Cory Aquino is from a family of hacienderos, which I deeply hate for enslaving the Filipino people and having the mentality of the Spanish Friars of greediness. That never happened in Greece and Serbia. Was they trying to give democracy a big hand or themselves? The Philippines weakened during the weakening of the Presidential powers and transferring it to oligarchs than the power sharing of the President, Speaker of the Congress and Senate President.

Why couldn't we have a radical change that makes the country a semi-presidential republic where the President has more powers than the Prime Minister but they both function to lead the state like a lot of countries do? And the Philippines need a Socialist and Capitalist market to balance the overwhelming disparity in prices and for the people to choose what kind of product they want without the impending raise of food and oil..

Without those radical changes I mentioned in paragraph 3, the Philippines would end up in a state of ''Kangkungan'' or field of water spinach in which an old Filipino saying: ''Sa Kangkungan ka pupulutin'' or you would be discovered in an undesirable place or place for losers.

Most Filipino unPatriotic and anti-nationalists



Sad to say, my country's road to destruction continues. Selling the islands to China, not modernizing the military, stagnant economy and the poor deprived of free education. Here's the thing though. Where are the people deemed as nationalists? You can't see their faces on mainstream media. You can't guess if they are authentic or paid by corrupt politicians. Yes. Corrupt politicians. When you want to retain the uneducated people to barrios, you know what it means. They say the Philippines should be a liberal democracy but it doesn't work on a country that lacks discipline. People that would say these things are being cut off by the mainstream media as hillarious or absurd.

But you can see on Facebook pages about the truth or in the internet what truly happened and what is the obvious lie we weren't shown.

It is like you were promised liberalization of the economy in exchange for your beliefs. What happens next is when you have the economic "gains", you would be charged with a lot of obvious fees that make your nationalistic feeling gone, in exchange for money. 

With that said, Filipinos today replace their nationalist identity for fake economic promises, fame and anything else while displaying fake pride for the country.  That's the truth. When I was in the Philippines, I craved to watch Independence Day celebrations because it displays our heritage as Filipinos and that we are the most patriotic country in Asia. Many people around that time craved to see it as an act of true nationalism and patriotism.

Nowadays, people doesn't care about June 12. They care it is a holiday because they won't work or don't hve classes. Let's face it. Few people like me would show a hint of frustratiom when we see our country in shackles. It's sickening politicians fight among themselves than helping each other to modernize the country. The last time someone attempted to modernize the country is during Ferdinand Marcos's rule as president. Ever since, the oligarchs came back, destroying what Ferdy brought and the discipline and nationalist identity died with him.

People from my homeland wants to get out of the sinking ship than to hold on to broken promises. One of them is me, whom retains some love for my homeland as a nationalist but would not go back their unless everything would have a radical change for the good.

Why the Philippines need an enlightened despot

Have most Filipinos wondered why every coup fails? Me, i don't even mind because they lack the ideals of most enlightened dictators of the 18th centuries. Whether i am basing my views on personal or historical can be disputed but, i wanted to point out too, that Ferdinand Marcos made a mistake by marrying a Donya named Imelda Romualdez who is known to embezzel millions and making the legacy of Ferdy tainted. But, what if Ferdinand Marcos married other women and acted like Singapore's Lee Kuan Yu's policies of radical social and economic change? Maybe, my country would not have lost most of its best people! Of course! Brain drain is every country's problems but mines is much worse. Moja Volim Filipini is still there but the way those stupid politicians are doing is kind of uttering Oh My God often! Or, what have you done to this beautiful country?! Filipinski Narodi?!?

Maybe Josip Broz's example is perfect for my country even if he did not seize it by coup. He united all of the Yugoslavs into one single federation of brotherhppd and eliminating any hint of nationalism and making their loyalty to the nation as their own nationalist tendency to show the world how they work for the common good of each other.

Tito also played the whole world too and his name became a brand, recognized in the world through his mixed market and socialist economy, perfect socialism, limited democracy, and more than enough firepower to be a world power in its own small ways. Tito along with Gamal Nasser, Jawaharlal Neru and others founded the non-Aligned movement which all countries regardless of communism and democratic ideologies united to tell the world what to do and not what the big powers mostly wanted.

After the fall of communism, the NAM became useless as America and the EU became agressive to conquer the world through the economic pressures to join their economic federation.

Why not someone from my country do what an enlightened despot or dictators can do?! Come on! We need a revolution to chane the system forever for the common good of my country! Wake up Philippines!
