Talaga bang bawal maaksidente’t maospital? Posibleng mas lumala pa ang sakit ng pasyente oras na malaman niya ang kailangang bayaran.

Is the US preparing for war, or deterring it?
Considering all these revelations from the US and NATO, one may ask: What is the world’s lone superpower thinking? Is the US flexing its military muscles and consolidating its regional and global alliances to deter an impending war with China? Or are these actions meant to prepare for war?
US, Phl mull potential restoration of bases
Invoking the 1951 Mutual Defense Treaty – acknowledging and repeatedly stressing its applicability in the West Philippine Sea (a Philippine proposition earlier rejected by the Obama administration) – the United States appears to be angling to use Subic Bay once more as its naval base in this part of the world.
Trumpets and drums: selling the Phl at Davos
“The (WEF) is hosting a Country Strategy Dialogue for us where we are given the opportunity to promote the Philippines as leader and driver of growth and a gateway to the Asia-Pacific region. One that is open for business – ever ready to complement regional and global expansion plans for both foreign and Philippine-based enterprises anchored on the competent and well-educated Filipino workers, the managers and professionals.

Balik-Tanaw | The regenerative word of God
Second Isaiah created a synthesis: uniting into one, Israelites beliefs in creation, in the Divine government of history, and Divine will to save. Yahweh is creator. Even the greatest powers are insignificant before him. We know how Israel was conquered by world powers, then transferred from its own soil to another. Within this reality, Second Isaiah’s concept of God evolved.
Balik-Tanaw | Rest
The setting of the sun signals the time to come home, a time for rest from the daily toils. But for the poor workers in highly urbanized areas rest is a luxury. The none-stop rotation of work propagated by capitalism, rest is counter-productive.
Balik-Tanaw | Random thoughts on fear, adventure, and the dance of life
I was blessed by children today. Two children, actually. A young girl, 10-year old Sophie, and a 3-month old baby boy, Matteo. Sometimes, one can’t contain oneself, by the joy these two pure souls may offer this poor, weak soul. Life can be so burdensome.

Polluters not paying: privatization as root of the energy crisis
A corporate-driven national power policy and program makes even clean and renewable energy projects anti-people and anti-environment.
A deluge of crises: the roots of our climate vulnerability
The Philippines is endowed with rich natural resources and diverse ecosystems, but we suffer from massive environmental degradation and resource depletion.

Paglalakbay na naantala, salamat sa kapitalista
Kapitalismo rin ang dahilan kung bakit hindi pinapansin ang reklamo ng mga naagrabyadong pasahero. Walang pakialam ang mga negosyante sa naantalang iskedyul o maging sa buhay o kamatayang sitwasyon (kung mayroon man) ng mga pasahero. Para sa kanilang basta-basta na lang itinatakda ang pagbabago sa iskedyul ng biyahe ng mga pasahero nila, sapat na ang tokenistang paghingi ng paumanhin. Tahimik na lang sila sa kanilang pagkamal ng milyon-milyong kita (o baka naman bilyon-bilyon!).

Kung ang mensahe ni Heydarian ay hindi makita ang “independent” foreign policy dahil sa nangyari sa Reed Bank, iyon ang dapat na titulo ng artikulo.
Basura sa Philippine Collegian
Higit pa sa isang komplikadong telenobela, malinaw ang maniobra ng papaalis nang liderato ng Philippine Collegian para atakehin ang kalayaan sa pamamahayag. Sa halip na pagbutihin ang paglilingkod sa mga estudyanteng tagapaglimbag ng opisyal na publikasyon, ginugol nito ang oras para sampahan ng kaso ang tingin nila’y kaaway nila.

Rodrigo Duterte’s unnatural disasters
But in the Philippines, the links between environmental degradation and militarization are intimate. Government counterinsurgency campaigns have been most violent in the regions of the Philippines with natural and mineral resources that are largely untapped by extractive projects, whether it’s Mindanao in the south or the Cordilleras in the north. Brandon was shot because he opposed a hydropower project that would have displaced indigenous communities in the north, while to the south, indigenous Lumad leaders have been killed and schools dedicated to the teaching of sustainable agricultural practices occupied under the guise of anti-communism.
A portrait of the security guard as a worker
But Paray was a wounded animal lashing out against the world that hurt him. This is the difference between a worker fighting against injustice and one fighting for their class. Alchie Paray is at once every single Filipino caught in the same situation, but at the same time, he is a reminder that we must all organize ourselves against the system that allows this exploitation to manifest.

Why are there no Filipino rightists in the news?
But a real existing rightist is rendered hidden from public gaze. When citizens encounter a rightist politician, they fail to see a person already succeeding in imposing his dogmatic political beliefs in the bureaucracy. They don’t even see him as a political actor with ideological bias.
