People! Be the Change!

I got this from the new PPCRV Campaign program on TV. It is a good start to inviting our youth to take part and be active for the 2010 election. Nawa'y mula dito ay makapanimula na rin ang buong galera ng isang makatotohanang kilos pagbabago para sa ating mga botante.

IWAKSI ANG PAGKASILAW SA SALAPI AT PILIIN ANG KARAPAT-DAPAT AT TAOS SA PUSO ANG PAGLILINGKOD. YAONG TUNAY NA MGA MAMAMAYAN AT BUONG KAPAKANAN NG LIPUNAN ANG NAUUNA SA PUSO AT HINDI ANG PANSARILING INTERES!
NGAYON, SIMULAN NATIN SA ILALIM NG TOPIC NA ITO ANG WALANG TIGIL NA PANAWAGAN PARA SA ISANG MALINIS AT TAPAT NA BOTOHAN.
ILANTAD ANG MGA PANDARAYA AT MAAGANG PAMUMULITIKA. ANG PAGPAPAMUDMOD NG PERA. ANG PANANAKOT AT PANGGIGIPIT NG POLITIKO. SA PAMAMAGITAN NG FORUM NA ITO AY UNTI UNTI NATING WALISIN, LINISIN ANG DAAN TUNGO SA PANTAY AT TAPAT NA HALALAN ng 2010.
BAYAN, NASA ATING MGA KAMAY ANG PAGBABAGO! MAGKAISA NA TAYO TUNGO SA PAGLUKLOK NG LINGKOD BAYANG DALA AY DANGAL NG TUNAY NA PAGLILINGKOD SA DIYOS AT TAO...

Ibigay ang inyong suhestyon,opinyon at saloobin tungo sa maayos, tapat at malinis na halalan!

yes, its about time to move towards the CHANGE in our electoral exercise in Puerto Galera.
Let us begin from ourselves as a people and voter!

In my own little way, may i also add that NOW is the time for action. Our voters know for sure who not to vote for, but unfortunately, the color of money seem to blind any sensible person to vote for corrupt and traditional politicians. Puerto Galera's political landscape and history is replete with election-related violent and non-violent incidents. Goons doing midnight house to house harassment to adamant voters was a regular occurrence in the past elections. Local leaders and organizers usually sell their clout and influence to the highest bidder. Principle and delicadeza were set aside for the time being even among close relatives. What a sad plight! Nobody is to blame for our lot except ourselves. Let us get our act together as responsible citizens for the sake of our children. Expose corrupt politicians and their errand boys thru this forum. Let us resist the temptation to give in to wordly but fleeting pleasures. One of the best things our children should inherit is a better and progressive Puerto Galera. But by the rate that our humble town is being raped and pillaged by its own leaders, there would be nothing left for the next generation to inherit. As the old cliche goes, "Now is the time to act, tomorrow might be too late."

well said konghoy...bravo !

Ginoong Bastarasta ,kung inyo pong mamarapatin ang matagal ko na pong isinasamo sa inyo na sana kayo ang kandidato ng bayan sa susunod na election. Siguro malaki ang pagbabagong magaganap kung ang manunungkulan ay isang kagaya nyo po.

this guy really know how to speak in dollar
you got me that one baby!

Just a suggestion, why not organize an active PPCRV (Parish Pastoral Counil for Responsible Voting) chapter or affiliation in Puerto Galera. As I have also read from their website (www.ppcrv.org), their vision:
"Enlightened and prompted by the Holy Spirit, we envision to be a strong and potent Community of Disciples, with a fervent desire to be an effective instrument of the Risen Lord towards the attainment of a renewed and transformed society, with a culture uniquely Filipino; a political leader ingrained with Gospel values; a government truly sensitive and responsive to the needs, aspirations, hopes and dreams of its people; and a Church as deeply concerned with the temporal order as she is immersed in the mission of spiritual salvation."

Dapat our Catholic church should be one of the prime movers towards a clean,responsible and fair election. We know that election is part of a political exercise pero may pakialam dapat ang simbahan dito on moral issues at pangangalaga sa kanyang pamayanan. Tawagan ang ating mga kaparian dyan sa puerto galera na manguna tungo sa malinis at tapat na halalan na walang perahan!
I agree with konghoy> NOW is the time before we soak the whole society again in auction not election.
Tigilan na sana natin ang lumang kaugalian na panay ang pagparada natin sa ating mga Mahal na Patron Immaculada pero mismong tayong mga tao ay wala namang kilos pagbabago lalo na sa magiging kinabukasan ng buong bayan. Matagal ko nang nakita ang over display ng mga religious parade dyan sa puerto pero mas naaawa sa atin ang ating mga patron dahil panay hingi ng awa wala naman tayong gawa tungo sa ganap at matapang na pagbabago sa ating bayan. Dyan maraming bulag sa puerto galera.

- curious lamang ika nga ... sa mga kapwa taga Puerto Galera .. mga tanong
- 90/95 % pa ba ng population ng Puerto ay considered Roman Catholics ?

- do they follow all the ethical teachings ng church or sila ay "cultural Catholics" ?
- maraming katoliko na nagsisimba as a habit pero hindi sinusunod ang teachings ika nga .

- or talaga laang naligaw ang kanilang moral compass

- matanong ko lang dahil lagi na lamang umaasa sa Catholic Church para ituwid pero ang mga tao ba ay nakikinig

Honestly, I have not attended any church services here although I have met with the parish priest already Fr SJ when he was still new in the parish. As we all know, priests also are like political figures. They say/preach the Church's programs and policies/dogmas as well as Biblical doctrines during sermons. I have several cousins who have gone into priesthood and I know that they have been trained in giving out speeches in the seminary as well. Fr. SJ is the priest of the Catholic Church. He is also of the SVD order. My priest cousins also come from the SVD so I know the order's thrust---social consciousness. A parish priest does not just officiate the rituals and protocols of the catholic Church. He is a moral crusader and leader as complementing that of the municipality. By this, he has to have the courage and authority to stand firm by what is Truth and Godly.

Actions reflect what is inwardly understood and a good teacher does not only preach the Truth but shows how Truth moves in everyday living.

itaas ko lang ang topic na ito...

This will be our tool for CHANGE!
Dito lilitaw ang mga kawalanghiyaan ng sino mang pulitiko na susubok lumapastangan sa kasagradohan ng eleksyon.
Lets all be vigilant.

Kaibigan, katulong mo kami...

Salamat at welcome po sa forum TyoAve

Kapusa,

ako at ang aking panginoon hubbert christopher ang mga bagong bida sa puerto galera!

THE FACES OF CHANGE!

I would just like to complain about BradPete's choice of profile picture. Not that I find it gross but a bad sense or taste of what is funny. This boy smiles so purely. He may have an "ugly" face to most but this is what I find so "ugly" also about most people's characters. They make fun of everything to the point of being as viscious and malicious. This is something that has to be changed too!

Please, bradpete, if you find it funny...I don't.

Thank you.

well...
i'm not here to satisfy your senses...
i really dont care if you dont find it funny,
i dont really care if nobody finds it funny...


bottomline....
FACES OF CHANGE FOR 2010=UGLY!!!!
(if we don't pull our acts together and let the moneyed politicians still fool us)










btw...
i got that avatar from a site that digitally messes up with faces...
it's not a real person as much as i'm concerned...
but if your still affected...
to each his/her own.

hahahahhaaaa....now this is funny!!!! what happen to the freedom in this forum, may I ask? vakettt ,afectado sha? bigay mo flowers ,pare !!!! hahahaha

kabanalan, i do not really understand why people really refer to "freedom" as taking potshots at just anybody. A forum is of issues to be discussed. If you do not agree or feel immensely repulsed by the issue, there are ways to express it so the other party can think and reflect on it.

I did not agree with bradpete's profile picture because I really do not like people making fun of deformity (even if it is morphed only) or even any sort of seemingly "innocent fun" poking at people, animals, etc. That is my nature and I abide by that. I am no longer a child helplessly looking on at all these craziness. And that I have to say my truth. Yes, if I have to express it in flowers, I will. For I believe that is what Jesus had taught us to do.

Merry Christmas sa inyong lahat.

Good for you Tagabundok....sorry that Bradpete's post was offensive to you,but,I can relate on how some people portrays his personality through their avatar.Speakindollar for one,has scythe and dagger but he didn't get any negative comment on that perspective though we know what it meant.This is a so childish issue and I can't believe I am involved just beacuse I laughed at his post, and like what Bradpete said....he's not posting here to satisfy anybody...this is a forum and it's up to you if you want cry or laugh!!! now, which one are you?















I guess I need some kind of "reality check" !!!!

CRY BABY!!!!!

okay...just to make a dot on this "childish" thread of comments. I have nothing personal when it comes to ideologies nor varying opinions about issues. The scythe and hammer is nothing to me---it is a symbol. So is the picture of Joma Sison. These are all symbolic and I respect that. Same if I post the rainforest botanical orchids here. It is my avatar because I am an environmentalist by heart and not an orchid-grower.

The "freedom" in this forum (as always invoked ad infinitum) is just the same with me expressing my view that I find making fun of "deformities" offensive even if it is just morphed or portraying the commentor.

If I laugh or don't laugh, it is a spontaneous thing. When i saw BradPete's new avatar for the first time, It really didn't sit well with me and I even had to discuss it with my partner whether to comment on it or not. But then, my better judgement was to comment on it.

the thread here is "BE THE CHANGE". This is a matter of our personal value systems---whether it be denoting our respect for the environment, or any specific political issue for that matter. But it is quite loaded in that CHANGE also is needed in how we view things as Filipinos! We have been brought up "seeing" a short, black Negrito as "ugly" or funny and the tall, white Caucasian as "pogi!" Same thing with moronic looking people, they are more prone to be ridiculed and not given their just respect for living the way they are!

I hope I have made my point clear.

Thank you. Merry Christmas uli.

some forumers are just too idealistic...IMO
i have nothing to say....i dont play with kids anymore

dont get me involve baby!


Merry na, Christmas pa!

Your opinion Tagabundok is only yours...you are entitled to it....but, it doesn't mean I will agree to it, or it doesn't mean you are a better person from the rest of us .Like I said in the past ,I view people's posts as their personalities ...it was Bradspete's personality and that is yours....so what is your problem? Did it ever occur to you that your post prolly offended some PG teachers for calling them ignorant? ,and for you to be so sensitive about a freggin avatar is surreal.



Merry Christmas din po !!!!

sana pala qoute ko kanina, para kahit edit mo un post mo doon pa rin....hehehe
ayaw ko baril-barilan sa palangan or balite....tunay na baril pinapuputok don.

i dont wanna be a human target....

luto na spaghetti baby!

hahahahaaa speakin.....bagal mo baby!

spaghetti with meatballs and a lot of cheese and toasted garlic bread ...yummmmm

I really think it's really time for a change. Sana naman hindi natin gawing batayan ng pagboto kung sino ang malaki ng naibigay at sino yong mapapel. Suriin natin ng maigi kung sino ang karapat dapat.

Batay na rin sa mga nabasa ko sa forum na ito...

Mayor: Hubbert Dolor
V- Mayor: Leo Persia

Kilala natin si Mayor Dolor bilang isang dating Doctor. Ang kanyang kapatid ay isang Engineer at ang Isa naman ay isang piskal. Anak sya ng DepEd Superintendent ng buong Oriental Mindoro. At ang isa pa kapatid nya si Bonz Dolor isang Board Member ng Oriental Mindoro. Sa madali"t sabi galing sya sa isang marangal at sabihin na nating may sinasabing pamilya. May maayos at magandang bahay sa Palangan at may sasakyan na sadya bago pa man naging mayor. Masasabing baguhan lamang sa pulitika ngunit may layunin namang tumulong.

Ang napipihong V mayor naman na si Leo Persia. Wala akong masyadong alam sa kanya. Ang alam ko lang sya ang nag-iisang tao na may lakas na lumaban at magbunyag sa baho ni former mayor. Hindi takot lumaban sa mas makapangyarihan dahil alam nyang tama at totoo ang kanyang ipinaglalaban. Hindi sys sunudsunuran sa mali at hindi bulag sa katotohanan.

Ano kaya pag nagsama ang 2. Ang isa ay baguhan at maaaring madaming mga ideya kung paano pauunlarin ang ating bayan. Isang pulitiko na hindi pa nakakaranas ng mga bagay na galing sa kaban ng bayan at maaaring hindi kailanman. Ang V Mayor naman na si Leo, isang pulitiko na hindi takot lumaban. Pumapalag kapag naaapakan.


Mayor: Teo Atienza
V Mayor: Berting Macatangay

Mabait daw si teo. Madami daw nagawa. Pero ito ang sigurado madami rin syang nakurakot!!!!! Aristeo Atienza is a perfect Image of a corrupt official hiding behind his FATs!!!!!!!!
dI BA NAGTATAKA KAYO KUNG BAKIT WALA PANG PROJECT SI MAYOR dOLOR... Eh kc naman a million or almost a million ang nakurakot ni Teo bago sya mawala sa pwesto. Eh sa puro utang ba naman ang dinatnan ni Dolor, tingnan ko lang kung magkaproject kaagad sya...

Si ka Berting naman ana pagusapan natin.. Si berting na ang alam lang ay pumanig sa lahat ng gusto ng mayor nya noon. Eh ikaw nga ba naman ang mabiyayahan ng salaping kinurakot ni amo....eh syempre susunod na lang nga ako..


Isipin nyo ang maaaring mangyari kapag naging mayor ulit si teo at Vice si Berting.. Lahat ng iutos ni teo ay gagawin ni berting.. At ang lahat ng katiwalian ay magiging secret na lang. Imaginen nyo to, Isang Addict na may alagang askal. Ang addict ay ipakakagat ka SA KANYANG ASKAL. aNG ASKAL AY SUSUNOD SA addict dahil pag hindi sya sumunod hindi bsya bibigyan ng buto. Kaya ang askal mangangagat ng mangangagat hanggang swa lahat tayo ay magkarabis.

Kaya kung ako sa inyo wag kayong pumayag na magkarabis.. Doon na lang tayo sa pwedeng gumamot ng rabis...

Mga Kapuso at Kabarangay...
maging aktibo muli sa Forum na ito...
kailangan tayong maging makapagmatyag para sa bayan ng PG lalo na at malapit na ang Eleksyon...

Di natin sila TATANTANAN!!!
