Back of my mind i have been wanting to look for this thread some weeks ago. Some of u may have heard of the "new" turmoil in Mindanao island. Sana matapos na esp in Marawi, where school children are affected there esp now that classes have started.
I thought to reply to kalyna's blog post on long weekends, and we actually celebrated a long weekend with Independence day yesterday,, ironically still with soldiers needing to fight in parts of Marawi,,, Here are photos of our 119th freedom day
IN PHOTOS: 119th Philippine Independence Day | Inquirer News
There's an article i also read on Panorama, the sunday magazine of manila bulletin, where it explained our first flag was actually sewn by two women and a child, and not by three women as has been depicted in a previous popular painting
I am glad some business establishment gave me 2 small flags i brought home, when i could not secure some before yesterday, june 12

Fire Of Elijah,
I pray for your country daily.
Your president has always been, and remains, a very controversial figure.
There were times he distanced himself from the DDS, and times he admitted to running them.
Regardless, he is your president, and I pray he will make good decisions.
Trump has already talked to him at least once, and that seems to have gone well.
I don't think the Obama administration did anything to help relations between our two countries... hopefully things will improve.
(Keep in mind that not only do the America people feel a closeness to your country, but Trump actually has business partners and properties in your country.)
The best thing for all of us to do is pray for our leaders, that they will make good decisions.
jameen you are telling a lie, China is not a good friend to us the Philippines she exploited our own West Philippine Seas and islands. China never respect us by not following the ruling of the UNCLOS. She cheaply gave us a less financial aid like Yolanda disaster aid, and even lately in Marawi destruction still she gave less aid compare to other countries and America still the top aid donors, despite Duterte always backbite America. China did not share to us the resources, BUT THEY ARE ONE THAT STEAL OUR RESOURCES! The policemen became abusive and demonize because they follow the public statement of Duterte. Yes, China no longer a communist country but still a dictatorial autocratic leadership full of corruption and no total freedom under communist party, unlike with the socialist countries of Europe their socialism govt is good.The problem here is people from the American Deep State want to use the Philippines as cannon fodder against China.
They want to use the controversial war on drugs as justification to sponsor a regime change in my country and put a puppet president that will follow the Deep State.
Besides, China is not anymore Communist like the days of Mao Zedong; it is in fact a Social Democratic country and Mao Zedong only remains as founder of PRC but the government is not almost following his ideologies of the past.
China is really a friend in deed as long as you don't antagonize it. she can share the resources with the Philippines that is under the PLA.
About the deaths on our president's war on drugs, I think this documentary from BBC will shed light who are the other players aside from the abusive policemen which the president also did not deny. so it is unfair to blame all the deaths of war on drugs on the government.

jameen the UNCLOS by the United Nations is already enough that the Philippines could claim our own maritime territory West Philippine Sea, and that arbitration Hauge ruling is just something that second that motion. Furthermore, that sea territory and islands therein is already own by the Philippines and can no longer be considered as disputed territory.The arbitration ruling has nothing to do with International Court of Justice. no wonder why it has no implementation capability.
and world powers not only China sometimes do not follow the law. the US on its disputes with Nicaragua did the same. Taiwan also disregarded the ruling in fact it has not abandoned its base in one of the islands that is part of 9 dash line.
And true, Duterte attacked the US when Obama was in power because of interfering with our political affairs but not today because Duterte and Trump are getting along with each other.
And why will China give a lot of financial aid when that country knows that our gov't officials will only steal it.
Yes the West likes to give massive aid and in return is to interfere in our politics.
if you want that kind of politics where you agree that other countries to dictate what we should do then go but I myself don't want it.
China stealing our resources? I never heard China built an oil rig in the SCS.
US and China should be both Philippines' friends. I will never agree that our country to be a cannon fodder of any of these 2 world powers and our president is really keen on maintaining closer ties with these 2 countries.
You know jameen, Ye are of your tatay Digong(father Digong) for he is a liar, and the father of it. Nagmana ka talaga sa tatay mo! Dala mo rin ang pagmumura. That’s why you are also a hardcore anti-U.S. Sa dami-dami kong argumento sa nitong huli, ang nagawa mo lang depensahan ang pagka anti-US ni Digong at siraan ang Amerika. For me Anti-Americanism is no different to Anti-Semitism.// US making the role as the police of the world preserving democracy and freedom making the world a better place to live. While China of its greediness grabbing a territory and bullying small countries in Asia! Even manipulating the Exclusive economic zone and maritime free navigation. //
What the **edited**! that country (USA) is in fact a warmonger nation today that even some Americans here agree.
Any country who will try to ditch the petro-dollar will be invaded or destabilize by the American regime.
remember what they did in Iraq? where is the evidence of WMD? NONE.
the only reason why Iraq was invaded because Saddam planned to ditch the dollar as payment for oil than euros.
It is believed that the Syrian war is because of the pipeline that Assad had disagreed. because the US wants to connect the pipeline from Qatar that will pass through
Never believe that the US is a saint but in fact another bully in the world like China.
// In the case between US and Nicaragua it was not about a territorial disputes, it was not about the greediness of a world power of grabbing a territory, //
almost the same as China and our **edited** hole country. walang pinagkaiba. pero syempre dahil akala mo santong santo ang mga Amerikano ay ibang iba yan.
pareho lang na bullies sa mundo ang US at Amerika.
jameen santong santo ba ang Amerika?? Did you not know that US has a great role for the whole world together with nation Israel according to Bible prophecies? If you did not knew it, learn from me if you are interested to know it, you will learn a deep Eschatology from me. While your tatay Digong dreaming of someday that America will be collapse...
Sir, fredoheaven bago ko masagot ang tanong mo. Maitanong ko munna sayo, kung alam mo ba tungkol sa mga prophetic blessings sa lipi ng Israel mula pa nagsimula kay Abraham at Jacob? at ang tungkol rin sa prophetic blessings and curse kay Ismael? Ang huling tanong ang kahulugan nga dalawang Beast at ang Image ng Beast na nasa book of Revelation?Hi Sir,
Medyo interesado ako sa "deep Escathology" or prophecy. Ano po ba ang itinuturo nyo.
Salamat
Hi just truth,Sir, fredoheaven bago ko masagot ang tanong mo. Maitanong ko munna sayo, kung alam mo ba tungkol sa mga prophetic blessings sa lipi ng Israel mula pa nagsimula kay Abraham at Jacob? at ang tungkol rin sa prophetic blessings and curse kay Ismael? Ang huling tanong ang kahulugan nga dalawang Beast at ang Image ng Beast na nasa book of Revelation?
