The Failed Rally Predators are Waiting in the Shade

It seems the interfaith rally at Makati City –an investment haven where Jejomar Binay wanted to paralyze and be downgraded- Friday, did not generate the thousands participation the oppositions were expecting. Jose Velarde, in disgrace, immediately went home -sensing that his 50 thousand audience expectations would not materialized- and attended to his ailing mother as an alibi. The bishops, the priests, the nuns, the deranged civil societies, the communists, the degenerated politicians, the misinformed and paid audience; they are the Somali Pirates camouflage in the sea of crowds. However, their prayers were not heard above and instead sent forth continuous rains in the morning to defeat the rally assemblies.

 

God must have been always on the side of Gloria. As has been said, Manny Pacquiao’s boxing accomplishment outscored Gloria’s economic worries and other misgivings. She has been always saved not by the bell but by nature’s understanding ways. Those who cannot wait until 2010 election wanted to replace her unconstitutionally and therefore chaos and disarray will be immediate results. They are the bishops and their cohorts who want to dictate and be the administrator of the state. They are the doom-makers who are too eager to see the Philippines reeling in disgrace and demeaned in poverty. They are the new breed of politicians who want to lead through the ruins of his constituencies and be president at all cost and impose their draconianisms. And they are all not for the country’s well being but solely for their selves’ aggrandisement.

 

The failed demonstration was not planned for the purpose of opposition to charter change but as a cover to dethrone the president and destroy the duly constituted government. They only failed to muster enough followers to constitute people power as the bishops have been harping on during the past few days. If for true reason they do not want amendments to the constitution, we have many options to reject it in the plebiscite. We are not in Marshall Law as was imposed by the previous dejected regime and we have all the freedom with responsibilities to abide by the legal well of the people.

 

We are the modern civilized people of the Philippines and we welcome beneficial changes in a civilized and legal ways. Hidden and self-serving motives can be injected to unenlightened populace but not to educated citizenship. Enough of power grabs and power greed. Leaders are borne and not made. I love my Philippines and would not let it to be fed to the vultures larking in the shade.

On My Daughter’s Wedding

I’ve got busy activities in the past few days. I was not able to cope up with my regular posting schedule, not even a post which is full of quotations from unreferenced source. I was preoccupied by wedding preparations of my daughter, Myla, last December 6.

 

We completed all the necessary programs; the St. John Bosco church for the nuptial rites, the Manila Polo Club wedding reception hall, and the 5-star Intercontinental hotel where the bride is to wear her wedding gown. An executive guest room and an adjacent family suite were occupied to accommodate the video taping space, the make-up artists, and number of personnel assisting the bride and her entourages.

 

I was particularly concerned with the Father of the Bride Speech. I searched the internet for the appropriate words and guidelines in preparing my speech. I found so many speeches that somewhat compounded my difficulties for reasons of varied audience and situations. Later, I will post it here and how I delivered my speech which elicited so much praise and criticisms by jealous friends and somewhat offended audience.

 

Soon, I will be narrating this once-in-a-lifetime experience as Father of the Bride and make amend of my post shortcomings.
