THE BEST THING TO DO FOR PACQUIAO!

If I were Manny Pacquiao, I would help the people more directly, first, than be an endorser in whatever shape and form of the Aquino Administration.

I’d rather wait first for what the Aquino Administration has done, or is doing, to address the country’s major problems before giving them a hand.

Take note, Pnoy supporters, I’m NOT SAYING that Manny should not help the Aquino Administration. What I’m saying is the people, especially the poor, need a lot more aid from Manny than Pnoy.

Pnoy has THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT at his disposal to boost his PLUNGING RATINGS.

He has THOUSANDS of personnel and HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of pesos in equipment and resources to promote his accomplishments in media and elsewhere.

Manny, for his part, has been a known PHILANTROPHIST.

If Pnoy’s ratings are crumbling and his good news is not reaching the people, then he had better crack the skulls of his communications people to find out why.

For them to take Manny in and help them do their job, better or correctly, would be nothing less than a direct ADMISSION OF INCOMPETENCE.

As well as reduced time and opportunities for Manny to continue, and expand, his sharing of blessings to his constituents and the less-fortunate elsewhere.

In fairness to Manny, he has been CONSISTENT in sharing his fortunes after each and every fight, even before he became congressman of Saranggani.

The best thing for him to do is to FOCUS on how he can spread his charity and touch base with the needy in as many areas and in the fastest time possible.

If the Aquino Administration wants to recover lost public trust and satisfaction through Manny, it would be wiser to assist him in directly helping the poor.

Instead of simply tapping him for CHEAP, VULGAR propaganda like wearing yellow gloves purportedly as symbol of a unified fight against poverty.

A gimmick which, I’ll dare say, DID NOT give them any favorable comment or review.

Thirteen of our friends on “Garcia plea bargain a ‘go signal’ for thieves” :

ATTY. BERTENI CAUSING of Manila

May tiwala pa ba kayo sa kasalukuyang mga huwes? Palitan ng jury JURY SYSTEM ang sistema ng Hustisya. Ttayong mga tao ang dapat humusga, hindi ang mga huwes na puro presumption of evidence lang ang basehan na kadalasan ay di naman tutoo.

JOFFRE BALCE of Sydney, Australia

Why, oh why, has politics deteriorated into the science of the possible for shady characters? Are they simply trying to protect more important figures and shock the system?

VIRGILIO PERALES of Bogo, Cebu

Lalong maguguluhan ang mamamayan!

JOSIE PATAWARAN of Sheung Shui, Hong Kong

Dapat mabulok sa kulungan ang mga ganyang klaseng tao.

RONALDO NICODEMUS of Al Khobar, Ash Sharqiyah, Saudi Arabia

Huwag na tayong umasa pa sa Gobyerno para sa kaso ng mga corrupt na opisyal. Wala ring mangyayari. Puro papogi lang iyang mga iyan. Kawawa lang ang mga mahihirap.

ANGELINA PALERACIO of Mauban, Quezon

Kawawa naman ang bansa nating minamahal. Hindi lang bansa natin, ang sarili natin. We contributed up to the last cent of our income to the gov’t.

JUN PARAGUYA of Dubai, United Arab Emirates

I pray that a bill be passed to bring back capital punishment. Execute first of all the big time, I say again, BIG TIME thieves and corruptors Name it, we'll have a field day identifying them. But the law is nowhere in sight!!! What RH - bill nonsense are we trivialized about? Rubber items are just over-the-counter anyways! With flavor pa!

MERIT SALUD of Bloomfield, New Jersey, USA

How could the Sandiganbayan say that the evidence against Garcia for plunder was weak, when the very money he is returning is an eloquent proof that he plundered the money entrusted to him? We need to remember that Garcia could only return what he has control of. What was the origin of the money he returned to the special prosecutor? It is not wishful thinking to say that it is not really an issue of weak or strong evidence that was the basis of the approval of the plea bargaini agreement. iI say, include the Sandiganbayan in the investigation and let the ax fall where it should!

MARLENE DAMOLO HOWE of Tacoma, Washington, USA

I cannot say enough. Our justice system fails and it needs to be changed.

JOE ALVARADO JR. of Makati City

Magnakaw ng marami. Then, isauli ang kaunti at magpasarap sa (United) States.

DAHLEE LOPEZ JURADO-BABAAN of Bustos, Bulacan

Only in the Philippines.

MALOU MARIANO

If there is a need to have the Sandiganbayan or an Ombudsman to pre-empt or take over the role of the court system, one can expect anything .

MELANIE DOMINGO TILLES of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Grabeeee na ito. Kawawang Juan dela (Cruz, the symbol of the Filipino as in Uncle Sam to the US). Gising na, Juan,
