Sen. Padilla asked why PNoy didnt do anything in education & employment. Maraming nagawa si PNoy. Backlog sa classroom at school chairs at libro. The BPO industry expanded. Dumami ang empleyado sa BPO atbp. Una naging investment grade status ang Pilipinas under kay PNoy.

For the record, President Benigno S. Aquino III is to date, the last President to retire from public office after his term as President ended. Neither hungry for power nor feared future cases, he retired quietly. In & of itself, that is no mean feat. A legacy worthy of recall.

This is @lenirobredo & her team at work. No fanfare, no pre-programming announcement, no promises. Just the work product. W/ a minimal budget, she manages to pull off solutions to address the needs of our frontliners. David solving a Goliath of problems. One pebble at a time.

Dear @DOHgovph , pls explain why you set P500/day pay for volunteer health workers. COA rule na? Don’t keep quiet. You are asking us to wear a red arm band to show our support but the pay appears how little you esteem healthworkers. Defend your frontliners, kahit volunteers.

Harry, sablay ka na naman, yung jingle na “Kay Leni Tayo”, gawa ng mga volunteers ng FlipMusic kasama ng #LetLeniLead team. Walang kinalaman si VP Leni dyan. Salamat sa plug ng jingle, sabayan mo ng sayaw sa Tiktok at research pa more! Wag mema lang!

We have the worst recession in Philippine history. We have yet to receive vaccinations, we are not Singapore, we are not even Vietnam in dealing with Covid. Yet, you call our response Excellent. Bulag ka ba, Harry or are you stupid?

I admit belonging to another generation brings curiosity & befuddlement on the language of another generation. It took me a while to understand the intensity of a word as they understood it. When it sunk in, my only response was “Ah ganun pala”. Keri ko na kaya #KeriNiLeni !

In hindsight, BBM recruited mostly from the Erap Cabinet. Medalla was NEDA Dir. General, Diokno was Budget Sec., Laguesma was Labor Sec. Erap had a competent Econ Team including Pardo who was Finance Sec & Mar Roxas who was Trade Sec. I recall Mar recounting to me he was able..

The daily reports of VP Leni’s efforts would have been a great addition to the President’s report to Congress had the law identified her office as well for fund realignment. 40 Million in a vast sea of 200 Billion is a drop in the bucket, yet so much has been done in meagerness

At one point, he organized, if I recall, more than 30 events kn one day which prompted then Sen Noy to remark: “Jesse, kahit ang kalabaw, gaano kasipag, kailangan rin magpahinga.” Jesse responded: “Noy, gusto mo bang manalo?” Noy may have complained but he did his job …

dutifully. When we were in govt., his sudden loss was one of the most eventful moments and we missed him dearly. But he is home now. “Sige lang” was what he would always say. Happy happy birthday Jesse!

I watched belatedly the national address of VP Leni. As she spoke, one could already visualize the roadmap if the recommendations were adopted. Over & above what she said, one got the sense of someone in control, inspired confidence & more importantly, you are not on your own

In last year’s wake, DEPED Sec. Bro. Armin mentioned some PNoy achievements in the Education field: At the start of PNoy’s term, classroom backlog was 66,813 classrooms. At the end of his term, PNoy built 185,000 classrooms or an average of 84 classrooms per day for 6 years.
