hmm pero big projects like yung sa macapagal ave sa may roxas.. diba dumadaan din naman yun sa top brass ng govt bukod sa dept of public works and highways for approval?

so dalawa lang ang lalabas, either pinalampas dahil may kickback or may pagkabobo si GMA sa pera. the second one is impossible though, economist si GMA eh.

I think we have a very corrupt system but it's like that, way before GMA came into the picture. If you want proof, just look at how many drivers just give P100 or P200 to enforecers when they are caught with a traffic. Just look at how many would pay a fixer when we need to get a license or anything. Just look at how many of us accepted money to vote for a specific candidate last election. It's in our blood already. And we need to fix ourselves before we lay the blame on a very convenient scapegoat. 8)

i am relatively young, pro i have very noteworthy experience regarding this matter, all i can say is, bulok at corrupt ang sistema at pamumuhay ng pinoy, kya bawat isa sa atin may kinalaman sa nakakasulasok na kalagayan ng bansa natin, na ayon sa karamihan ay kasalanan lng ng iilan, hoy! gising na! di ba pinoy ka? wag maging tanga at mapagmalinis, every1 of us is interconnected, great things start from small things, so try to effect something positive, pra sa bayan at para sa bawat Pilipino.

The Arroyo administration may be corrupt, but it is not the most corrupt administration in Philippine history. That title belongs to the Marcos administration spanning 21 years from 1965 to 1986. The country's economy was in shambles after the Marcos administration. Heck, he even had all those Swiss accounts consisting of the taxpayers' money! What's worse is that we can't even get to those Swiss accounts to get the money that is rightfully ours and use them to our fiscal advantage.  gun:: gun:: gun::

how can you say peso is getting stronger sir? if the basis is just the foreign exchange rate, i would definitely disagree...foreign exchange rate is dropping but the prices of basic necessity for juan dela cruz is not. It is so hard to earn dollars abroad but for what? $1=44 pesos and a good, clean kilo of rice stays P26...tsk tsk tsk

Actually it's easier to earn money in the U.S. Usually you get $6 an hour, and that's an equivalent of a day of work if you're in the Philippines. _The_ investment is another thing.

Well oil/Petroleum really affects everything. Now imagine if a dollar is still Php55.

Oil/Petroleum is not even dropping its prices and even LPG which is a basic need in every household. P500+ per 11kgs of LPG. A lot of OFW's are already complaining...  smoking::

Exactly my point. If Philippine Peso, if you may, isn't getting stronger every product affected by Petroleum will be more expensive (than it's current price).

Complaining what? Complaining to who?

You really can't hold the rising price of imported products against the government because they don't control them. The best thing the gov't can do is keep Php against USD stronger everyday. 
: Re: arroyo administration...
: hypr August 03, 2007, 05:00:45 PM
OFW's are complaining 'coz the money they are sending isn't worth it anymore. Peso is really getting stronger everyday but prices of basic necessities are still high. If you get my point...The gov't must make prices of our local products lower if they really want to say that our economy is getting better.

Anyway, nice discussing with you man...peace

I think everyone knows that our government is corrupt and hey kelan ba nging hindi?? but to say GMA's administration is the most corrupt I believe is wrong... And yes our country is improving.. slowly but it is improving and anyone who says that its not is probably living in an underdeveloped area or just plain ignorant.. But the thing is we are far from being a well develop country,and it would take decades for us to reach that level..  An economist said in the Inquirer that the Philippines need to match China's 10% annual economic growth for atleast 20yrs for our country to be well developed.. I dont know how accurate this is as Im no economist but I believe that this is more or less correct.. we only had a 6% growth last year.. so I guess unless we can improve our economy alot more then it would take more than 20yrs for us to be develop.. Now this mission of improving the economy is not for the government alone.. Its for every single one of us as well.. Also development would start on certain areas and not on every part of the country.. some regions will take longer time before they can expirience development and not all people will feel it immediately.. I think most filipinos have this mind set that development can come rather quickly and everyone's lives will improve right away.. this is wrong as it really needs alot of time.. Just take a look at china, they're one of the fastest growing economy and yet if you had a chance to visit there, you'll see that alot of people are still poor and a large part of the country is still underdeveloped.. And when did the Chinese economic boom started? Yes their rise is considered fast but is still taking years... I guess everyone gets the point now..

this is true, di ba dapat every baranggay ay may pondo for a health center? sa mga uncle ko kasi, pag may sakit yung anak nya, dinadala nya sa baranggay may libre pang gamot.

samantalang dito sa amin, may mga lumalapit kasi sa akin na mga poor na ka-baranggay na humihingi ng tulong para pambili ng gamot. sinamahan ko sila sa baranggay since alam ko nga na may mga health centers bawat baranggay, imagine, para sa lagnat na lang wala pa. ano na nangyari sa mga free na gamot supposedly na ipinamamahagi ng baranggay? naibenta na kaya?

kaya tuloy napaisip ako kung tatakbo ba akong baranggay official, since tumutulong naman ako sa mga needy dito sa amin.

Sa question ng threadstarter: of course not... Oo, corrupt ang administrasyong arroyo pero baka nakalimutan nyo na ang marcos administration? Marcos is a genius kaya nga hanggang ngayon eh hindi parin tuluyang mabawi ng gobyerno ang bilyon-bilyong nakaw na yaman ng pamilyang marcos.

Off topic: Mahirap na sigurong mabawi ng gov't ang nakaw na yaman ng mga marcos dahil sa sobrang higpit ng privacy policy ng swiss bank.

well thats true she has a masters degree in the US she is smart a we could get better than previous president l guess corruption does not really exist in the Big house it self l believe its in the local level especially Congress and governors, Mayors etc... its hard to distinguish which is which GMA l think is trying hard to prevent this siguro its in the culture of the filipino or mahirap lang talaga sugpuin because we tend mum on the situation that we see... hayy ah life in Pinas!!

In my opinion, I think that the Arroyo administration is not the most corrupt government in the entire Philippine History. This is one of the problems that I think would be really hard to eliminate. Even Finland has a corrupt system even though they are the least corrupt country in the world. We need to change ourselves first if we want the Filipinos as a whole to change for the better. ;D

in every administration there is a different ways to become a corrupt one,every president has there own political will na magaganda at maayos, the problem is how you gonna go there on top position without the help of the others,like business man to support you  in campaigning some generals to control the armed forces some politician who got huge influence and some department secretaries to help you win the election so when you win it's time to pay them back kaya kahit  anong gawin nila dedma ka na lang because without there help you will not win ika nga.ecomony can control by the government but the problem government has no money to sustain it kaya philippine economy can easily control by the big business man and other international market that can dictate easily the outcome,the only thing the ecomony keeps it's head above the water is the OFW's remittances, without this our country will pretty much in trouble,exchange rate from dollar to peso it's good to be low but the important is the GNP of our country  which needs to boost it up.I suggest that we ask ourselves what we can do for our country and not ask anymore what our country can do for us.
: Re: arroyo administration...
: chocho_qta October 23, 2007, 10:00:35 PM
in my opinion, the arroyo is admin is corrupt BUT not the most. that's just bull crap that's being fed by the opposition to the masses or the people gullible enough to fall for their deceit.

all politicos are corrupt from the president down to brgy councilors.

if the question is who's the most corrupt, in my belief that would be former pres. ramos. he may not be in power anymore but his influence is far more greater than people believe or see.

from what i heard, pres marcos(undoubtdly the most brilliant pres the country has ever seen) made his fortune not with people's money but through foreign investors wanting to enter the philippine market. u can figure out how that works.

i'm not so sure about pres cory aquino. as for erap, he stole a good amount of people's money but he was stupid enough not to cover his tracks & got a little bit too selfish for his own good.

i'm not sure if most people are aware of this but ramos is secretly one of the majority shareholders in one of the biggest malls in india.

if you can also remember the peso in ramos' time was only an average of around P25? but when erap became president in just a short span of time it baloooned up to P52? regardless of how investors see erap as being a competent or incompetent leader for the country, the time frame for the drop of the value of our peso was just too fast too soon. most of the country's money went with ramos.

would you believe that ramos is responsible for ninoy's assasination?

when pres marcos knew his regime wouldn't last long, he was looking for a succesor with a brilliant mind & a good heart to match to take over the country, he was actually contemplating in having ninoy aquino take over his reign but ramos got jealous & plotted on how to have his way bec. he wanted to rise to power. well, we know what happened next after ninoy got off the plane.

i'm not saying pres ramos is stupid, in fact he has a very brilliant mind. but with a very cold, ruthless & selfish heart to match.

even up to this day, those observant enough to notice that ramos is still using his influence in pres arroyo's admin. what do i mean? does parliamentary govt system ring a bell to anyone?

so go figure. but this is just my opinion i got from an old timer who was a former crony himself & knows his way around a lot of stuff.
