For the longest time, I've been hearing about how Vietnam has been cruising past us, maintaining 7-8% growth for numbers of years. Now, when even them welcomes ai processing hubs, what's stopping us from doing the same? Would you prefer the investment that's supposed to go to Clark go somewhere else instead? Let me know your thoughts.

Tama si Usec. Claire ang survey ay ipinalalabas sa balita para manipulahin ang mga tao. Kaya di sila nakakaboto ng tama eh dahil ang botohan ay ginagawa nilang sabungan. Kung sinong mukhang mananalo na manok ay doon sila tataya

Kaya nga dapat ipagbawal ba iyan para matuto nang mag isip ang mga tao at di na umaasa doon.

Kung gusto ng mga Marcos na di makaupo ang mga Duterte come 2028 kinakailangan ipagbawal na ang pagpapalabas ng mga survey kahit executive order lang. Lagyan ng stiff penalty at ikulong mga mag papa labas ng survey para madala silang mag palabas.

Take note, kahit anong political survey lang ang ipagbabawal.

Basically, the question, that instead of yung usual case na nababalitaan natin na yung mga DDS yung usually na pumapatay, e sila naman ngayon ang napatay or pinatay, or even attempted lang. Especially if out of retaliation or dahil binalikan na rin sila finally ng someone na una nilang ininsulto, sinaktan, binantaan, or even sinubukang patayin, or even kamag anak or kakilala/kaclose ng someone na pinatay nila previously.

Senator Robin Padilla led the Pulse Asia Research 2028 senatorial preference survey conducted from June 28 to July 6, 2026.

The actor-turned-senator mustered 48.4 percent. Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto took the second spot with 47.9 percent, followed by Senator Raffy Tulfo with 43.9 percent, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano with 43.2 percent, and Senator Loren Legarda with 40.3 percent.

Meanwhile, boxing icon Manny Pacquiao, Makati Mayor Nancy Binay, Education Secretary Sonny Angara, Senator Mark Villar, broadcaster Ben Tulfo, Senator Jinggoy Estrada, TV host Willie Revillame, Senator Chiz Escudero, former congressman Mike Defensor, former senator Mar Roxas, former DILG secretary Benhur Abalos, and TIEZA COO Mark Lapid are also regarded as favorable candidates.

Pulse Asia noted that the survey, conducted through face-to-face interviews with 2,400 adults, has a ± 2% error margin at the 95% confidence level.

Wala akong makitang impormasiyon na mapagkakatiwalawan ukol dito at gusto kong itanong sa mga nakakaalam dahil ang iisang pinagmumulan ng mga sinasabi ng DDS ay isang website na tinatawag na Numbeo na isang crowdsourcing. Madali itong i-peke ng mga troll at hindi ko makita na ito ay mapagkakatiwalaan.

Planning to spend a week in Manila next week. Available lang ako sa evenings dahil sa work, so I'm looking for places to check out at night.

Aside from MOA and BGC, saan pa maganda gumala? And if sa BGC, ano ba talaga yung mga sulit puntahan?

Balak ko rin sana pumunta sa isang stand-up comedy bar since nasa bucket list ko talaga siya. If may mare-recommend kayong ibang magandang spots for solo tambay, food, or nightlife, drop them below. Thanks!

I am a game designer, developer and a singer-songwriter wanting to visit for the same from Northern India. I like Ben&Ben and love Rico Blanco. I love to share and have wild stories and be crazyyy with some natives before i visit philippines.

I am an open minded guy (26yo) and a feminist who respects every gender and culture and also wants to enjoy that. I can also learn maybe a bit of Tagalog❣️

Spread some love, philippines ~

Hey everyone! I'm curious how restaurants, cafés, and bakeries handle food that's left over at the end of the day.

I'm talking about things like:

• Fresh bread and pastries
• Cooked meals
• Sandwiches
• Desserts
• Other prepared food that's still good but can't be sold the next day

What do you usually do with it?

• Sell it at a discount before closing?
• Let employees take it home?
• Donate it?
• Throw it away?
• Something else?

I'd also be interested in hearing why. Is it because of food safety, company policy, customer expectations, costs, or something else? Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences!

Chissmiss lang toh so really informal ang post nito hehe. Also i placed this in 18+ kasi masyadong sensitibo ang pangungusap nito, sa paningin ko.
I dont know where to put this and what flair to use so yeah

Ngayon, july 22 2026(HAHA NAGLAGAY PA SIYA NG DATE) nasaniban ang aking kaklase.

So yung nangyari, ap namin(mga 3-4?), tas hindi mapakali ang aking kaklase, and i dont know kung anong nangyayari.

"Oy pakikuha ang bible ko sa bag ko" And related sentences like that i heard.

Then i saw my classmate(let's call her N) coming in crying lightly — A few minutes later, N sobbed.

My classmates say "Magdasal tayo guys" and me being an agnostic nag hail mary pa ako kasi natakot ako😭 Yung hagulgol niya naging sigaw ng malakas. I immediatly covered my ears and closed my eyes because it was too much to handle!

JUSKO, NUNG AKALA KO TAPOS NA YUNG DASAL NILA, SABI NG FRIEND KO "OP huwag ka tumingin sa mata niya" Pero hard headed ako and tumingin ako kay N — Nakaharap siya sa likod at nakita ko ang mata niya. Like parang galit ang kanyang expression, take the lucifer painting for reference.

That is when I started to cry a bit because i dont know what was happening...A few minutes later pumunta kami ng kaibigan ko sa likod, umiyak ako, yung friend ko isa — umiiyak din.

Later, pumunta na yung adviser namin, inaaproach niya si N. "IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER AND OF THE SON AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT—" Basta she is trying to exercise(ito ba ang right spelling?) N.

Then suddenly hindi ko alam kung bigla pumunta siya(N) sa labas o tinakbo nila sa clinic. Basta, may narinig akong pagtakbo papunta sa labas.

Without the president;
Without the adviser;

Nagsimula na ang mass hysteria.

Kasali ako sa mass hysteria because natakot ako talaga sa nangyari.

Screaming
Shouting
Sobbbing
Comforting

Yan lang ang naririnig ko, panic attacks and fainting(one single person). I called my mom kasi idk, hindi 'ko alam kung anong gagawin e.

Nandito na ako sa office(teachers) ng mommy ko, nagsusulat nito. Na kalma na ako na yizz...

From what I heard from my mom, may nakita si N ng babae, may panaginip ako ng babae nakabigti a few days ago! Hindi ko alam kung related yan or something.

Si N? Hindi ko alam.

Here is some things you have to know about sa classmate at classroom ko:
May mga sakit si N physically and mentally, kapag sobrang ingay, nagseiseizure siya.
Since public schoolers kami, expect walang aircon para saamin.
Yung sakit ni N at ang init, naging double kill na.(HAHAHA JOKE LANG Pero totoo naman.)
Buti nalang asa harap si N, who knows what will happen kung nasa likod siya!

Ok naman lahat kami, sana na blessed na ang aming classroom.

Edit 1:
Hello mga tao! So i have gathered more information from my friend and yung pta gc.

May sinabi ng isang parent daw na may bumubulong sakanyang anak sa classroom ng "papatayin kita" "kukunin kita." Nasa ER na siya ngunit dati na pumupunta siya ng ER dahil may sakit siya.

More about kay N, sinabi ng kaibigan ko na that N spoke to one of my classmates before yung saniban. "Yung afi sa puno...Yung afi sa puno..." bumigkas niya sakanya. Sa school namin, may tinatawag na "Afi park," may dalawang puno jan as i remembered, and sinabi ng kaibigan ko na may spirit sa puno na iyan(kapre).

My friend's tita believe that the spirits are taking that girls, which i kinda believe. Hindi na epekto yung mga lalake during the mass hysteria.

Ok that is all for this edit!✌️ Sana na bless na ang classroom o kaya yung classmates ko. Good morning!

Vice President Sara Duterte leads the 2028 presidential preference survey of Pulse Asia, conducted from June 28 to July 6, 2026.

LYRICS

[Intro: All]
Ah, ah

[Verse 1: Mikha]
Tell the driver to take me past the part where the roads end (Mm, ah, ah, mm, ah, ah)
To the edge of the edge of the Earth where the Sun sets (Mm, ah, ah, mm, ah, ah)

[Pre-Chorus: Colet, Aiah]
Write my wish in the sandbar, know the only thing that keeps me alive
Is the hope that, close my eyes and I wake up somewhere
A parallel world out there where you're still here
And that's where we'll always

[Chorus]
You and I, be stuck together
Fall down and get up together
Love so hard, we cry together
You and I ride the tide together

[Post-Chorus: All]
Together
Ikaw, aking kasama
Ikaw, ikaw lang
Together
You and I ride the tide together
|[Verse 2: Stacey]
Makulay ating daan, isang milyon ang larawan (Mm, ah, ah, mm, ah, ah)
Matapos man ang mundo, maligaya ako sa nag-iisang tala sa langit (Mm, ah, ah, mm, ah, ah)

[Pre-Chorus: Maloi, Jhoanna]
Write my wish in the sandbar, know the only thing that keeps me alive
Is the hope that, close my eyes and I wake up somewhere
A parallel world out there where you're still here
And that's where we'll always

[Chorus: Aiah, Mikha]
You and I, be stuck together
Babangon kahit matumba
Love so hard, we cry together
You and I ride the tide together

[Post-Chorus: All]
Ikaw, ikaw lang
Together
Ikaw, aking kasama
Ikaw, ikaw lang
Together
You and I ride the tide together

[Bridge: All]
Together, together
Take my hand, let's go together
Together, together (Together)
You and I, be stuck together
Fall down and get up together
Love so hard, we cry together
You and I ride the tide together
[Chorus: Maloi]
And that's why I'll fight forever
Dance in life, then we ride together
Love so hard, we cry together
You and I ride the tide together

[Post-Chorus: All, Colet, Maloi]
Ikaw, ikaw lang ([?], together)
Together (Together)
Ikaw, ikaw lang
Together

[Outro: Sheena, Gwen]
Bakas sa buhangin, the only thing that keeps me alive
Is the hope that, close my eyes and I wake up somewhere
A parallel world out there where you're still here
And that's where we'll always

"Laging 'walang budget'... hanggang may pang-party pala?"

Ilang beses na ba nating narinig ito?

❌ Walang budget para sa dagdag na kagamitan.

❌ Walang budget para sa dagdag na tao.

❌ Walang budget para sa mas maayos na serbisyo.

Pero may isang pormal na reklamo na humihiling ng imbestigasyon dahil sa mga seryosong alegasyon laban sa isang opisyal ng HEMB-DOH.

Ayon sa reklamo, may humigit-kumulang ₱3 milyon na hindi umano naideklarang savings mula sa OHCC/NPNRC, sa kabila ng buwanang renta sa PICC, at ang naturang pondo ay sinasabing nagamit sa mga layuning wala sa aprubadong budget.

Kasama sa mga binanggit sa reklamo ang:

• isang In-Service Examination ng Emergency Medicine Residents;

• HEMB activities at events;

• Christmas parties at iba pang unofficial gatherings.

Hindi lang doon natatapos.

May alegasyon din na ginamit ang pondo ng gobyerno upang tustusan ang venue sponsorship at billeting ng mga delegado ng isang pribadong organisasyon sa isang conference noong 2023.

Idinagdag pa sa reklamo ang mga alegasyon ng:

• hindi umano paghahain ng 2024 SALN;

• pagtanggap umano ng pabor at regalo mula sa suppliers; at

• mga ulat ng hindi maipaliwanag na yaman na hinihiling ding siyasatin.

Kung mali ang lahat ng ito, isang patas at transparent na imbestigasyon ang pinakamabilis na paraan para linisin ang pangalan ng sinumang sangkot.

Pero kung may katotohanan ang mga alegasyon, may karapatan ang bawat Pilipino na malaman kung paano ginastos ang perang galing sa buwis.

Hindi ito tungkol sa personalidad.

Hindi ito tungkol sa pulitika.

Tungkol ito sa pananagutan.

Dahil ang pondo ng gobyerno ay hindi "extra money." Pera ito ng taumbayan.

Kaya sana, sa halip na "walang budget" ang lagi nating marinig, ang marinig naman natin ay:

"May imbestigasyon na."

At kapag natapos ang imbestigasyon, ilabas ang buong resulta—anumang maging kalabasan.

Accountability protects both the public and anyone who may have been wrongly accused.

ang jojoker ng mga dds 😭 bat naman ganito nila sagutin si pinakabatang commissioner at member ng pdp-laban 😭 at ang ta is nga naman ng batang to, di nya man lang napansin kung ano ang mga sagot ng kasama nya. nagpatuloy lang talaga sya, jusko! 😭 lord, bat daming ganto sa pinas???

perfect cycle talaga:

1. trapolitiko sabotage educ system

2. educ system fail

3. people illiterate and uneducated

4. people become gullible and less critical

5. people fall for trapolitiko's promises

6. people vote for trapolitiko

repeat

I'm making this post because I cannot, in good conscience, keep quiet about something I recently discovered.

To any woman here who has engaged in hookups or sex video calls arranged via Reddit or TG since around 2023-2024: please be extremely vigilant.

I recently discovered that a man based in Manila has been systematically keeping and storing explicit materials from his past interactions. There are at least 50 files saved on his device. While any physical hookups may have been recorded with initial consent at the time, the resulting videos appear to have been kept and stored long after without ongoing consent. Furthermore, I'm almost certain that the video call recordings and photos were taken and saved completely without consent.

Here are some non-identifying details I can share publicly so you can check if this sounds familiar without breaking the rules:

- Location: Manila area (he lives in a somewhat run-down condo, around the 4th-6th floor).

- Timeframe: Active from roughly 2023/2024 up to present.

- Platforms Used: Telegram and Reddit for initial contact and video calls.

A reminder to everyone:

Please always assume video calls on platforms like TG, Discord, Viber, etc. can be recorded. Even if you consent to something in the moment and/or visit someone's place, please be cautious about your digital privacy and how your media is stored long-term.

Stay safe out there. Please share this with friends who might need to see it.
