Indiegogo is a fundraising site designed to fund or raise money for specific sectors such as musicians, artists, foundations as well as sports — Sports which is being neglected by the Philippine Government.

Remember the lone Filipino Winter Olympian Michael Christian Martinez?
How about the Filipino rowers?
They all have no money to pursue dreams and instead worked on their own physically and financially.

Upon winning and raising the name of the Philippines in their chosen sport, donations poured in.

This is the same case of this Filipina. Her quest is to bring the first Gold(by a Filipino) for this year’s 3rd Women’s & Men’s Open IPF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2015 CLASSIC POWERLIFTING . This is to be held in Salo, Finland on June 5-14,2015.

Dearest NBI and GMA 7 Saksi,

akala ko ba nonbailable kung drug pusher. bailable kung downgraded as user?

bakit po yata nakalabas na sya ulit after more or less 1 week.

kung saan nyo sya nahuli ay don rin sya bumalik.

God said “Do unto others what you want others do unto you.”

The link above is an article/ blog suggesting what Filipinos should do to (some) Singaporeans while they are staying in the infested country — Singapore. The blog impliedly created the 5 point guide on how the Filipinos should react to Singaporeans. In that case, i would like to call the following:

1. Sigue-sigue Gang
2. Sputnik Gang
3. Oxo
4. Mga Batang City Jail
5. Followers of Kuratong Baleleng
6. Salisi Gang
7. Active members of Akyat bahay Gang
8. Ativan Gang
9. Sputnik Gang
(Source: Yahoo)

to show our sincere love they have given to Filipinos.

However, let’s do this through largely “peaceful”, with some criminal acts but would fall under justifying and exempting circumstances of the revised penal code (if committed in PH). I recommend following ways:

1. Reject and Eject

If you encounter a Pinoy waiter/waitress or customer service officer, and a Singaporean telling this: ” Could you kindly ask a Singaporean staff to speak to me? Your standard of English-there is much left to be desired” and ” Your English sucks, capisce? Get the fuck out of my uncaring face and find me someone else pronto.” – Kumuha ng balisong at ingudngod sa lamesa. Simple lang diba? Tawagan ang immigration at ipadeport… pero sampahan muna ng kaso, para makulong ng isang oras man lang para magahasa ng mga preso.

2. Step on ’em, push or shove’em

Singaprean will do this: When the Peenoise get rowdy or obviously do not observe basic social decorum, a little “nudge” in the right direction won’t harm. Just make it look accidental. Pump your fist in victory later when they are out of your sight. We understand sometimes they just don’t get it, so a little more force must be employed. Like what this unsung hero did: This morning at Bishan Circle Line MRT I pushed a Pinoy out of the train before door closes.

Filipinos: Retaliate, push the Singaporean in the railway tracks as your life was put in danger. NOT JUST OUTSIDE THE DOOR, but along the railroad tracks. If they do it along the road, push him along Edsa or Expressway.

3. If you think Singaporeans will create an artistic mess on the plate when dining at Jolibee
Or any other Filipino themed restaurant/ food outlet. Serve food mixed with illegal or prohibited drugs. Plant the evidence in his body and call the police afterwards. Don’t forget to ask for the bill and he must pay in cash.

4. Since they will never render help when Filipinos are involved in serious traffic accidents, lets just stand on the side with arms folded across your chest, peering curiously at the bloody setpiece. NEVER CALL THE AMBULANCE. LET the thieves get his belongings while he is dying. Take selfies with caption harshtag #itsmorefuntodieinthephilippines, .

5. Instead of Praying for a flood of biblical proportions to descend upon in Singapore, let us just pray for their souls… remember we have Filipino nationals in SG, we do not want Filipinos die in their infested country.

Go to the nearest church and pray. Pray hard for divine intervention aloud. Make sure God (and the Pinoy sitting next to you on the same bench) hears every word.

PS
They do not have island hopping or good beaches so in case you see a singaporean drowing in our beaches, Let’s just watch them drown and donate their body in our medical schools.

6. No Bonus point. The end. (I edited his article, the english may not sound good but you are free to comment and correct my grammar)

My answer: puwede mo naman ibalanse ang pagtulong sa mga nabiktima, sa gobyerno at maging kritiko sa mga nangyayari. Ang masama ay kung pinipigilan mo ang isang tao para magpuna. Paano na lang kung ang kaya nya lang itulong ay ang maging kritiko sa mga nangyayari?

Tandaan po natin na ang pagtulong ay hindi kailangan na isapubliko.

Anyway, salamat po sa team. Sa mga nagdonate ng gamot, pagkain at iba pa… bitbit po ng team ang inyong mga binigay na tulong diretso sa Tacloban via C130.

Eto po ang picture ng pauwi from tacloban.

Volunteers.

…Our Politicians who used the super typhoon as their chance to enhance their name.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

We have a president who used the typhoon to make revenge. (Tacloban is the province of their family enemy), and who is also known for “noy-noying locally” now went “globally.”

We have a Vice President who gave away reliefs with his name on it. Whose wife with a case for graft and corruption. 

We have our cabinet members and officials who cannot admit their shortcomings and with questionable credibility.

We have our DILG Secretary who wanted to become a President.

We have our lawmakers  who are more concerned of unjustly enriching themselves at the expense of people’s lives.

We have  our Judiciary whose reputation are tainted with untruthfulness.

We have the local media and can be considered unreliable, bias and corrupt.

We have the religious sectors who bash each other  at the expense of insulting the dead.

We have the business sectors trying to abused employees and circumvent the labor laws.

We have the voters who kept on selling their votes and voting the wrong ones.

We have the people, wealth, pride and freedom but was misused and abused.

If we can no longer smile, we Filipinos will vanish by collective suicide.

(Picture taken from the internet)

Robbing during a calamity is unacceptable. If it was food, perhaps i may understand them. But, REFRIGERATORS and BAGS?

Actually, i do not want to post statements to urge the public to donate. However, Tacloban is one of the smallest islands affected by the super typhoon Haiyan. We cant choose the people who we need to help. To put everything in place, we must understand them or some of them. Maybe they lacked food or may have really lost their properties.

The act of those who robbed the Gaisano Mall should not mean that all Tacloban locals should be classified as looters or robbers. Majority of them needs our help.

Time to get to the know the hardy Filipino people…unbelievably resilient, long suffering, good natured, uber friendly, loyal, ingenius, and a bunch of survivors.At the end of the day the Filipinos will just shake off the dirt from their clothes and thongs and go about their business…and SMILE. They do not complain much, they will bear as long as they can.Maybe this is why they were given the “privilege” of bearing the burden of the strongest typhoon ever recorded.The indomitable human spirit at its finest.

Racist.
Yes that is Devina DeDiva which hurt the entire Filipinos.

According to her facebook status she directly dropped the word MAIDS to describe Megan Young and the Filipinos.

But wait, did you noticed her picture? No, not her… the background.

Some background, according to her facebook page, she is studying or studied or maybe enrolled in Manchester University. YES she is from your school!

Dear manchester university,
At this time, one of your students is now being bashed online because of her so called exercise of freedom of expression. She acknowledged herself as one of your students and her action was very ignorant, racist, insulting and insensitve to the Filipinos and clearly a bad example to your institution.

https://www.manchester.edu/

Anyway, back to devina,  i was amazed how people gathered pictures of her which only means her facebook is on public status.

A taste of Filipino. Its more fun in the Philippines.
Maybe we are a poor country, but for sure even local housekeepers/maids here are more educated than you. With breeding and knows how to respect individuals.

Another thing, maids here have their own business which makes you poorer than them. They have only one job, and once becomes jobless, they can still survive for more than a year. Unlike you…. pag walang trabaho, foreclosed lahat kinabukasan!!!!

NAIA TERMINAL
There are different taxis available, yellow taxi or airport taxi, regular taxis mostly white ones using the meter and regular taxis BUT fix rate.

1. YELLOW OR AIRPORT TAXI
     if It is your first time in Manila, my advice is to take the yellow cab. A little expensive but safe and clean. Flag down is PHP70.00. From NAIA and going to Makati City expect to pay 180 to 250.00.

      To avoid traffic, ask the driver to take skyway. Toll fee for skyway is 20.00.

2. REGULAR Taxi
     Flag down is 40.00,  From NAIA going to Makati, rate ranges from 120 to 180.

3. REGULAR TAXI AND FIX RATE
     very expensive. For example, from NAIA to Makati, they will charge 750 to 1500 depending on the exact location. Thats for Makati alone.

WISE MOVE: yellow cab

HOTELS
One thing to consider is Accessibility and Safety.
IF your intention is to party with Bar Girls, then Ermita, Malate is the best place for you.

If you wanted to do a Real Travel Tour in Metro Manila alone or with family, I Suggest Makati is the best place for you.

Try the Burgos Area and Makati Avenue Area. I SUGGEST hotels like:
•st. Giles
•antel suites
•Tune Hotel (red light district)
•Berjaya

GREENBELT AREA and GLORIETTA
Quiet and affordable small hotels
•BSA
•AIM Hotel (ACCM)
•or you may opt to use Google and check for hotels near palanca makati and dela rosa streets
•Along Arnaiz road you have many hotels to choose from. Boutique style.
The B&B hotel they have is ONE greenbelt

Ayala Avenue (makati peninsula)
•Ascott
•Somersett service hotel
•Shangrila
•Manila Peninsula
•Intercon
•Dusit Thani
•Fairmont
•Raffles

I know i missed other hotels but i have  a good experience on those hotels.
Please try to check google and use those location. Makati is small yet everything is here and easier to hire cabs, jeeps, buses.

MOTELS
Eurotel a little bit far but in front of waltermart and near arnaiz road.
Motels also available in Jupiter and Burgos but they use Hotel or Inns instead of Motel.

For long stays:
There are condo units available for rent. 8000 to 30000. for example in greenbelt excelsior,  28000 one month. Rates varies depending on the location and size of the unit.

°do not attempt to check in at makati prime hotel which is near rockwell, Old and dirty as well as to other budget hotels within the red light district.
