"WAKE-UP Commentary - The Birth of CAOPI (Coalition Against Oil Price Increases)

THE BIRTH OF
CAOPI
(Coalition Against Oil Price Increases)

March 26, 2012 - UP Diliman, QC




P-NOY’s perceived “INACTION”  . . . .  

 A Betrayal of Public Trust?

Impeachable or Not?






 “WAKE-UP” Commentary

Ka Leon Estrella Peralta
"WAKE-UP" Commentary\on the
launching of CAOPI (Coalition
Against Oil Price Increases)


The ANTI-TRAPO MOVEMENT of the Philippines has joined CAOPI on the angle of our belief, that there seem to exist an alleged “anomalous conspiracy” between MALACANANG and the BIG OIL PLAYERS.  The dismal perceived “inaction” of Malacanang and its alter ego, the Department of Energy (DOE), to address the urgent pressing problem of excessive oil prices could possibly be construed by the “PEOPLE” as an apparent solid evidence of the “POLITICAL ILL-WILL”?? (Please see below author’s meaning and description/s) exorbitantly displayed by the current administration.  Malacanang’s public admission that they could not do anything to lower down the aforesaid excessive oil prices could perhaps be interpreted by the “PEOPLE” as a seeming admission of guilt by P-NOY of his own version of “Betrayal of Public Trust.”  To relate to the foregoing, let me borrow the words of Retired Justice Isagani Cruz, in his opinion, about “Betrayal of Public Trust” which I found to be relative to the aforesaid Malacanang perceived “inaction”; and “Admission.” According to Retired Justice Cruz, “ ‘Betrayal of Public Trust’ is a catch-all ground which would make any act unbecoming of a public official such as abuse of authority or neglect of duty, an impeachable offense even though such acts aren’t crimes.”
Whether or not it’s deliberate??? P-Noy’s perceived “inaction”, to reiterate, could be probably adjudged by the “PEOPLE JUDGES” in the Court of Public Opinion as an act unbecoming of a public official.
PUBLIC OFFICE IS A PUBLIC TRUST! Every public official and employee is mandated to serve the public with utmost integrity, dignity, honesty, skills, intelligence and the like.  From the smallest public employee to no less than the President of the Republic of the Philippines, are expected to stringently adhere to the said public service principle and maxim.  The President, being the highest public official of the land, is stringently accountable to the “PEOPLE” and by virtue of his apparent perceived “INACTION” on the urgent pressing problem of excessive oil prices to the point of putting the “PEOPLE” whom he proclaimed and acclaimed to be his “BOSSES” to the brink of financial crunch needs to be assailed by no less than his “BOSSES”, the “PEOPLE.”

IN view of the foregoing  . . . Will the “PEOPLE” resort to IMPEACHMENT?


HIS “BOSSES” SHALL DECIDE!!!


SOONER???     OR      LATER???

EYEWITNESS Story (a sober opinion), The 'Political Birth' of "NOYNOYING"




THE “POLITICAL BIRTH”
OF
“NOYNOYING”
Date of “Political Birth”     :   March 15, 2012
Time of “Political Birth”     :   On or about 9:00 AM
              Place of “Political Birth   :  Quezon City Memorial Circle
                                                                   Elliptical Road (NHA), Q.C.
  



EYEWITNESS
Story

(a sober opinion)

KA LEON ESTRELLA PERALTA WITH KA VENCER
CRISOSTOMO, National Chairman-ANAKBAYAN Partylist
taken during the ' Political Birth' of 'NOYNOYING'
On or about 8:00 in the morning of March 15, 2012, leaders and members of various People’s Organizations assembled in Quezon City Memorial Circle, Elliptical Road, in front of NHA, to join the “PROTESTA NG BAYAN” against successive price hikes of petroleum and petroleum products. To name a few, GABRIELA Partylist duly represented by Ka Emmi de Jesus, Congresswoman-GABRIELA and its other officers and members; ANAKBAYAN, duly represented by Ka Vencer Crisostomo, National Chairman-ANAKBAYAN; ANAKPAWIS Partylist, duly represented by Ka Cherry Clemente-Secretary General; BAYAN MUNA Partylist duly represented by its officers and members ; PISTON duly represented by Ka George San Mateo, National President, and its other officers and members; KMU duly represented by Ka Bong Labog, Chairman-KMU and its other officers and members; MIGRANTE duly represented by Ka Gary Martinez, International Chairperson; KADAMAY duly represented by Ka Karletz Badion, Vice-Chairman, and its other officers and members; KPMM duly represented by Ka Larry Tan, Spokesperson, and its other officers and members; DRIVERS UNITE for MASS PROGRESS, EQUALITY & REALITY (DUMPER) Philippines Taxi Drivers Association, Inc. duly represented by its officers and members; and ANTI-TRAPO MOVEMENT OF THE PHILIPPINES duly represented by the author, Ka Leon Estrella Peralta-Founding Chairman, and its officers and members.

        On or about 9:00 in the morning of the same day and place while on the “PICKET LINE”, Ka Vencer Crisostomo OF ANAKBAYAN Partylist came in front and introduced to the line NOYNOYING and subsequently initiated the line to perform NOYNOYING stunts. Instantly, it became a “HIT” AND ”FAMOUS” to and within the line and to the covering media. Hence, its “POLITICAL BIRTH”.

        In my sober opinion, the “Political Birth” of NOYNOYING is  a “PROCREATION” of Malacanang’s perceived insensitivity and inactions to the “socio economic” woes of the country; specifically the current onerous rates of petroleum and petroleum products, electricity, water, and other basic commodities which are now financially crippling the “PEOPLE.”  The “PEOPLE”, whom P-NOY addressed and acclaimed as his “BOSSES”, in his INAUGURAL SPEECH on June 30, 2010, as the 15th President of the Republic of the Philippines.

        NOYNOYING is a by-product of a “PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL” done by the “PEOPLE”, his “BOSSES”, on his almost “two year old” Presidency on his perceived insensitivity and inaction on the aforesaid Socio Economic woes of the “PEOPLE.”

        P-NOY and his “BRIGHT BOYS” in Malacanang should take “NOYNOYING” as a constructive criticism from his “BOSSES”; and an extreme challenge to his “PRESIDENCY.”

        “We” know for a fact, it’s politically very difficult and tedious to extinguish the “MONSTER OF EXORBITANT PRICES” created by pertinent and existing “Laws” sponsored and supported by the previous administrations. However, in our honest opinion, the said “MONSTER” is very much alive and much stronger than before in P-NOY’s Administration. Nevertheless, “we” believe all it takes are ‘POLITICAL INGENUITY’ (please see below author’s definition and description/s) and ‘INTENSE POLITICAL WILL’ of P-NOY and his “Bright Boys” similar to their overt display of EXTREME POLITICAL WILL in jailing the “ARROYOS” and their cohorts; and to have C.J. Renato Corona impeached by their allies in the “HOUSE.”

        The next “PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL” OF P-NOY from his “BOSSES” is fast forthcoming.


ALL IT TAKES ARE ‘POLITICAL INGENUITY’ AND ‘INTENSE ‘POLITICAL WILL’ WHICH “WE” KNOW P-NOY AND HIS “BRIGHT BOYS” ALREADY INHERENTLY POSSESSED AND ACQUIRED; FOR THEM TO ELIMINATE “NOYNOYING” IN THE PHILIPPINE’S “POLITICAL LINGO” FOREVER!


OUR SINCEREST CONGRATULATIONS AWAITS
P-NOY IN HIS NEXT “PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL”
  
Please don’t fail ‘us’!!!

P-NOY's "Political Ill-Will" Exposed???, "PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN", March 15, 2012


COMMENTARY


P-NOY’s
*“POLITICAL  ILL-WILL”
EXPOSED??? 



“KAYO ANG BOSS KO!”
“Political Reality”? or “Political Myth”?




 “PROTESTA
NG
   MAMAMAYAN”

March 15, 2012


Ka Leon Estrella Peralta, Founding Chairman with Ka George San Mateo, President-PISTON taken on
March 15, 2012 during "Protesta Ng Mameamayan" in Quezon City Memorial Circle, Elliptical Road, QC

We actually know it’s a long hard climb to extensively reduce the prices of petroleum and petroleum products, electricity, water, and other basic commodities due to existing pertinent laws attached and applicable to the aforesaid like, the Oil Deregulation Law, E-VAT Law; EPIRA Law and other related laws.  These said “LAWS” created the “MONSTER of EXORBITANT PRICES” that financially affected the “PEOPLE.”  “We” 
likewise, fully understand that the said “MONSTER” was created by the “Political Ill-Will” (Please see below author’s definition and description/s) of the past administrations and not by P-NOY.

Relative to the above, the recent “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN” against successive price hikes on petroleum and petroleum products apparently, fell on deaf ears on the “NOT SO NEW” OCCUPANT/S of Malacanang.  They even wrongly (intentional or unintentional), perceived and presented to the Public the said “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN” as a mere transport strike initiated by “PISTON.” Consequently, through Secretary Lacierda in his press conference on national television apparently, belittled “PISTON” for failing to paralyze the transportation in Metro Manila.  Seemingly, P-NOY and his “Bright Boys” are unattached on the real score of that day (March 15, 2012).  For truly, it was a “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN” and absolutely not a TRANSPORT STRIKE; And “PISTON” as its main role and contribution to the said “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN”, has self-tasked to initiate the “TRANSPORT CARAVAN” which started in Quezon City Memorial Circle and traveled to Makati City to highlight and bring the “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN” right at the doorstep of the “BIG 3 OIL PLAYERS.”

Whether or not, it’s a “TRANSPORT STRIKE” or “TRANSPORT CARAVAN” or “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN”; and whether it was successful or not, was non-issue.  By and Large, it’s the “PEOPLE” through their respective “People’s Organizations” who were in fact protesting; and belittling the same by Malacanang also belittles their sensitivity to the  “PROTESTING VOICES” of the “PEOPLE”, whom P-NOY proudly and publicly acclaimed and declared as his “BOSSES.”  Hence, due to the foregoing, P-NOY’s Political “Ill-Will” about the said social issue on petroleum was consequently and constructively “EXPOSED” by Secretary Lacierda’s aforesaid “uncalled for” public pronouncement in his said press conference.  What actually the “PEOPLE” expected from Malacanang is a soothing message of assurance that they loudly heard and is considering the “PROTESTING VOICES” of the “PEOPLE.” To belittle the protesting efforts of “PISTON”, a part and parcel of the “PROTESTA NG MAMAMAYAN” is to belittle the whole mass protest; and is tantamount to the trampling of the democratic framework guaranteed and embodied in  our Constitution.


“Kanino pa po ba hihingi ng tulong ang taumbayan? Kung di sa inyong mga taga Malacanang!”

“Ang Taumbayan lalong-lalo na ang masa ay
                   naghintay ng tunay na pagbabago hindi
lamang sa pagsugpo ng kurapsyon kung di
                   sa pagsugpo rin ng mga kadahilanan ng kahirapan
                   dito sa ating bayan.”


P-NOY’s administration must put a stop to the crippling price hikes of petroleum and petroleum products, electricity, water, and all other Basic
Commodities and to extensively reduce the prices of the same to a “Socially Economic Curable Level” (Please see below author’s definition and description/s).

The “Political Will” of P-NOY’s administration relevant to fighting and eliminating “POVERTY” must be seen and felt now by the “PEOPLE”; with the same vigor and intensity as to what they had/have witnessed in jailing the “Arroyos” and their cohorts and to have Chief Justice Corona impeached by P-Noy’s allies in the “House.”  Otherwise, the gained victory of the “PEOPLE” against the said erring Public Officials will be a VICTORY NO MORE . . . .  For the “PEOPLE” is now suffering from extensive financial crunch.  The “MONSTER OF  EXORBITANT PRICES” must be dealt with head-on by P-NOY, by urging his allies in the “House” to junk, repeal or amend all the pertinent “LAWS” that created the said “MONSTER”; As fast as he urged them to have C.J. Corona impeached.

The “MONSTER OF EXORBITANT PRICES” created by the previous administrations is very much alive and much stronger than before in P-NOY’s administration; and must be “EXTINGUISHED” by P-NOY to the BEST INTEREST OF THE “PEOPLE”, whom he acclaimed and addressed as his “BOSSES.”

“SOCIAL ECONOMIC CURABLE LEVEL” – downgraded prices of petroleum and petroleum products, electricity, water and all basic commodities that would bring about the upliftment of the Social Economic standing of the “masses in general” which, if implemented, would initially narrow the gap between the rich and the poor and ultimately create a DRAGON MIDDLE CLASS. Specifically, this will bring about to the “MASSES IN GENERAL”: enough money to spend for all their basic necessities, enough money for their desired education, and enough savings for future capitalization to be able to engage in small business without resorting to “Loan Shark” financing.

A Political Satire: "P-NAY" versus P-NOY - INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY Philippines


INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY
PHILIPPINES

Plaza Miranda-Mendiola, Manila
March 8, 2012






A Political Satire


“P-NAY” versus P-NOY
Please, listen to her . . .!!!




Ka Leon Estrella Peralta with Ka Mameng and Ka Leleng
of  KADAMAY

On March 8, 2012, the “FACE” of “disgusted” and “disgruntled” Filipino women   (“P-NAY”) has come into being.  They came in droves very ready to protest against the unresolved poverty brought about by unabated series of fuel price hikes, rising unemployment, contractualization overdose, wanton demolition in urban poor centers, onerous price of electricity and , rising prices of prime commodities, frozen salary hike for minimum wage earners and many more of the same. Name it and we have it in the Philippines.

          P-NOYs almost two year old Presidency is now in the limelight and, whether he likes it or not, he has to face P-NAY” squarely on their above “social economic” issues.  Seemingly, P-NOY is not bent to install initial corrective measures to cushion the impact of the aforesaid “social economic” woes, such as suspending or lowering down the E-VAT for petroleum products and subsequently move for the Congressional junking of the Oil Deregulation Law in order to cure the ill effects of the rising prices of petroleum and petroleum products. Likewise, the Congressional junking of the EPIRA Law and other pertinent related laws is a must, in order to resolve the crippling effects of the rising prices of electricity in our country.

          “P-NAY” wants P-NOY to listen to her until there is still time, for if not,      “P-NAY” in a “marriage like” situation, as a “disgruntled wife”, would ultimately seek for an annulment of their union against P-NOY; merely due to alleged “Psychological Incapacity” or in simpler words, incapable to be a “father” to his “family” (NATION) and to be a “husband” to his “wife”            (“P-NAY”).  

Would the annulment of their “marriage” or “union” is in the offing?  Wait and see! ! !

There is a saying “in every man’s success and failure there is a woman behind.” 

P-NOY, the “Samson”!
                 “P-NAY”, the “Delilah”!

Who would prevail?  Of course, it’s Delilah! 
Would anybody say’s NO? Of course nobody . . . . .
  
For the Bible story says “YES.”

So . . . “SAMSON”, Beware of “DELILAH”. . . Please, listen to her . . .!!!
