A Few Hours Before 2010

Happy New Year

Arthur Rimbaud once wrote that life is the farce we are all forced to endure.  In many ways, the past year was a farce: a comedy of everything that can go wrong.  A global recession, calamities from nature’s wrath, and the ongoing joke that is Philippine politics.  Still, here we are: a few hours before [...]

Consumption

baboy-500x333

Tell me what you eat, and I’ll tell you what you are. – Savarin Given any other circumstance, we wouldn’t be so mad.  We wouldn’t be so angry with other conspicuous displays of ostentatiousness; a neighbor buys a car, for example, or they call out for their children to go home while describing what’s for [...]

Have You No Shame? An Open Letter to the House of Representatives

philippine-congress

To the august and honorable members of the House of Representatives, I write this letter in the knowledge that within my inalienable right to free speech, I have the right to condemn, to dissent, and to express.  My knowledge is limited, and my grammar is flawed.  My eyes are not privy to law books, nor [...]

The Filth and the Fury

sdc10030

I hate to vent and be angry, but I have to. I was walking along Katipunan one afternoon when an interesting sight caught my eye, and was caught by my cellphone camera.  It’s one of those ordinary sights one should already get used to: the sight of a magkakariton, taking a welcome respite from the [...]

Through Bitter Times, Who’ll Be Left To Mourn*

It started as someone’s dream, to make a better day No one had foreseen what that dream became Step by step we marched ahead, never looking back The future’s always brighter, next to the remnants in our tracks. – Wolfgang, Atomica Anyone my age has developed some degree of political awareness without a firsthand experience [...]

Bad English

Cross-posted from The Marocharim Experiment A few days ago, I wrote about how “sick books,” represented by a book called “English For You and Me,” is a betrayal of the next generation.  In the February 2, 2009 issue of the Inquirer, Education Secretary Jesli Lapus makes a pretty good excuse (if you will) for the errors in [...]

Make Some Noise: FV Post #964

… MAKE SOME NOISE! No wait… isn’t that what we’re doing? I would write about more politics if I felt like it, but by the time this post is published, it will be the 964th post in Filipino Voices.  Now 964 posts may not seem like much, but that’s 36 entries short of FV hitting [...]

Cattle Mutilation

Citing the low approval ratings of President Macapagal-Arroyo, the Palace has directed government agencies to attribute all their projects to her. “Departments were reminded to give credit to PGMA” during a Jan. 9 meeting of the administration’ Ad-hoc Communications Group, according to Ramon Bacani, education undersecretary for regional operations. – Arroyo brand on gov’t projects [...]

This is for the People of the Sun*

* – It’s from a Rage Against the Machine song.  Please bear with me. I’d like to throw my hat into the whole hubbub about mainstream media and blogging taking place right now here at Filipino Voices, but somehow, I feel the urge to voice out something.  I’d like to talk about Filipinos who live [...]

Disclosing

I don’t give a damn ’bout my reputation I’ve never been afraid of any deviation And I don’t really care if you think I’m strange That ain’t gonna change And I’m never gonna care ’bout my bad reputation Oh no, not me. – Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, “Bad Reputation” OK: when I was Mar [...]
