Q&A 'bout Politics in the Philippines

[sharpener]

Mga ka-tf,
kung ano man po ang mga katanungan nyo tungkol sa pulitika natin sa Pilipinas, paki-post lang po
kung may makasagot, salamat....kung wala naman, salamat din, pero sana may makasagot

bear in mind that in every question you will post and the answer of it (from another member) , you're not the only one who will gain the knowledge, but all of us here in tf.....gaano man kababaw o kalalim ito

ito po ang tanong ko
ano po ba ang relasyon ni Mike Arroyo (husband of Gloria Macapagal) kay Joker Arroyo?
magkapatid po ba sila, magpinsan o wala lang

[sharpener]

bilib talaga ko sa mga ka-tf ko...ang tatalino!....walang nagtatanong
pero wala rin makasagot ng tanong ko:cry:

natanong ko lang po ang blood relation nila
kase po during impeachment trial ni erap, si joker arroyo po e napaka-aktibo
so curious po ako kung ito ba ay ginawa nya para sa bayan
o para kay gloria (vice president during that time)

sana may makasagot, di ko kase alam kung iboboto ko si joker arroyo o hindi
sabagay sino ba naman ako, isang boto lang, kumpara sa popularity nya sa pinas
ganun p man curious pa rin ako...sana nga may makasagot ng tanong ko

hello sharpener,

-Tungkol sa tanong mo, walang blood relation si Joker Arroyo kay Mike Arroyo at nang sinuman sa mga angkan nito.

-Pero kahit iisang boto lang yan importante parin dahil sa magandang hangarin nito.

@purpletablet

From section 68 of the omnibus election code of the Philippines...

Sec. 68. Disqualifications. - Any candidate who, in an action or protest in which he is a party is declared by final decision of a competent court guilty of, or found by the Commission of having
given money or other material consideration to influence, induce or corrupt the voters or public officials performing electoral functions;

committed acts of terrorism to enhance his candidacy;

spent in his election campaign an amount in excess of that allowed by this Code;

solicited, received or made any contribution prohibited under Sections 89, 95, 96, 97 and 104; or

violated any of Sections 80, 83, 85, 86 and 261, paragraphs d, e, k, v, and cc, subparagraph 6, shall be disqualified from continuing as a candidate, or if he has been elected, from holding the office. Any person who is a permanent resident of or an immigrant to a foreign country shall not be qualified to run for any elective office under this Code, unless said person has waived his status as permanent resident or immigrant of a foreign country in accordance with the residence requirement provided for in the election laws.

since there is no mention of candidates in their situation, i guess it's allowed.

good examples of these are the late rep. romy jalosjos and the joson brothers of nueva ecija.

Sir Mark, Mod Docomo,
maraming maraming maraming salamat po:)....at last naliwanagan na ako:D

one vote here for Joker Arroyo:D

[Soju6]

Sa Darating na eleksiyon..
Kung si GMA ang namumuno sa administrasyon,
Sino po ba ang may dala/hawak o namumuno ng UNO or ng Opposisyon?

[Soju6]

Huwag niyo na pong ikahiya ako na lang po ang sasagot……opposisyon is being led by no other than the “Action Star” himself - “ ERAP” ( Kinilabutan ulit ako). I still can't believe that this guy was once "the leader" of our country.

Tanong ulit, sino –sino po ba ang kasamahan niya sa opposisyon?
Gusto ko lang pong malaman mga pangalan nila. Kung masyado pong marami, kahit senatorial candidates na lang. Para maliwanagan ako't baka makuha nila boto ko.

Salamat po in advance,

Soju6

nagiisip pa ako.. meron ba karapat dapat? :p

[Soju6]

Di ko rin alam kung sino ang karapat dapat. Basta ang alam ko kulang ang pag iisip ang boboto sa dating mga supporters ng dalawang pinaka-corrupt na presidente ng Pilipinas.
Or maybe ako ang kulang sa pag iisip? Sino po ba ang puedeng magpaliwanag sa akin dito?

[docomo]

not sure where to stick this...

While walking down the street one day a Philippine senator is tragically hit by a truck and dies. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.

"Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."

"No problem, just let me in," says the senator. "Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity."

"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in heaven," says the senator.

"I'm sorry, but we have our rules."

And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.

Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand,
and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people.

They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and champagne.

Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are all having such a good time that before the
senator realizes it, it is time to go.

Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises...

The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him, "Now it's time to visit heaven."

So, 24 hours pass with the senator joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.

"Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose your eternity."

The senator reflects for a minute, then he answers: "Well, I would never have said it
before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in hell."

So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage.

He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags
as more trash falls from above. The devil comes over to him and puts his arm
around his shoulders.

"I don't understand," stammers the senator. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"

The devil smiles at him and says, "Yesterday we were campaigning ... Today, you voted."

Please vote wisely ...
