Isn't it amusing to hear members of political dynasties complain as if they haven't monopolized government positions for generations while delivering poor and inefficient services to the people they represent? How about we discuss that?
about to cry typing this, but i was in ayala, makati para magpasa ng documents from a recent conference.
ilan taon na rin akong hindi napapadaan sa makati, kaya hindi na ako sanay sa commute at ruta. after ko magpasa, hindi ko namalayan na wala pala akong baryang pambayad. 1/6

Kanina sa skyway, nagpaload ng rfid ung driver namin. Yung katabi naming kotse nakita na madaming hawak na pera yung staff ng toll, sabay sbi na "daming pera!" sabi ng staff "pera ni Ramon Ang 'to Sir, sya lng yumayaman sa mga kalsada nyang para lang sa mayaman" and I was like...
Baha sa NLEX?
Blame the government for not listening to our scientists about the flood risks. Blame San Miguel Corporation for building a massive airport in the waters of Bulacan. Blame Ramon Ang for cutting thousands of mangroves and for displacing coastal communities.
Unpopular opinion: Isn't it sad that the Sierra Madre is only remembered when people need protection from the typhoon? But when it needed help and protection, only a few bothered to protect it from land grabbers and development aggression.
Manila Post Office is on fire! But how does the building will caught fire on a Sunday night? For sure the plan is to destroy, same to what happened to others, it unless it happened because of an accident.

Isang pribilehiyo ang makadaan sa skyway kung may means ka dumaan pero paano ang mga ordinaryong mamamayang stranded sa daan dahil sa traffic, sa baha, sa ulan, sa gitna ng pangit na public transpo, gutom at pagod? Filipinos don't deserve this.
Fake sensationalism in Filipino architecture.
Fake nationalist approach.
Fake design appreciation to Filipino design.
I'm sure hindi ito dumaan sa management ng NAIA. Disconnect ang philosophy ng aesthetics na ito sa NAIA 2. Trying hard to be Mactan and Clark?

That being said, hindi at kahit kailan man magiging solusyon ang sangkatutak na skyways o sasakyan para gumalaw ang mga tao. What we need is efficient and humane public transportation sa buong bansa.

Napaka-anti poor naman ng mga comments sa tweet na ito. People you are literally driving above a piece of highway in a land where people were evicted and homes of poor communities have been demolished for your so-called development!
ang meron lang ako ay 500 na buo. sobrang hiya ko dahil ayoko magbayad gamit yun kasi ayoko mag-impose ng ganung vibe (alam niyo ba yung feeling na yun?) puno na rin ang jeep pero ayaw ko na rin bumaba. naglakas loob akong magtanong if may barya si manong kahit nakakahiya 😭 2/6
Genuine man or hindi, this reflects our current societal values on how we prioritize and allocate spaces for people, often favoring the rich, while neglecting the needs of those with fewer resources. Ask yourself, bakit ba maganda sa loob ng Benilde at hindi ang labas ng campus?

Our time is not free and we prepare for the stories we tell excluding the wifi and electricity that we use.
You know what really irritates me? Some of these leaders boast about studying abroad & claim to bring back knowledge to implement here in the Philippines, using our money but we often find ourselves debating with incompetent individuals who knows nothing about transport planning.

The rts and replies here stating that we should not ban BARBIE (EVEN IF I DON'T WANT TO AS A FAN) clearly don't know the history of this propaganda and what happened to Filipinos who have been attacked by Chinese militaries in the WPS. Wake up, people.
Let's remember that big political parties does not equate to votes.
Individual pinoy citizens will still decide base on their liking and not because VP is being endorsed by party.
What should we do then? Mag-organisa. Inform every community why

MMDA and LGUs always wanted to blame commuters for doing this. Did you provide graded pedestrians, crossings, and elevators for people with disability, senior citizens, pregnant, and children?
In this video, you just basically say, "We prioritize cars and cars only, thank you."

Hi! It's not because of the materials or substandard work produce by our fellow engineers and construction workers, it is due to Thermal Heat Stress. Please analyze the situation first before you make this kind of statement.
Only a few bothered to sign the petitions against Kaliwa Dam. When IPs that protect the flora and fauna are being harassed and killed, only a few talk about them. Most of you even loathe environmental defenders and activists and will say "puro kayo reklamo!"

Question po: Bakit kailangang hintayin kung late in general? Kumbaga kung sa klase ito, if 15-20/30 mins late ang professor/student, absent na ito. Paki-enlighten po.
To think of, the delay can be used to somehow produce a fake medcert just to present he is late.
I never knew I needed to do this until I realized I also need help. I reminded myself that not asking for help is self-sabotaging.

Nung sinabi kong 'gobyerno' tinutukoy ko ang kasalukuyang administrasyon. Ang punto, nasa mga pribadong mamamayan ang agarang aksyon imbes na sa namamahala lalo na ni Duterte ngayon. Kung sino pa nasa taas, sila pa huli sa aksyon!
Oil spill in Mindoro could threaten Verde Island Passage which is the Amazon of Oceans and it is not impossible. The Guimaras Oil Spill last 2006 is an example of how dangerous this accident can be that mangroves only began to grow again in 2019- 13 years after the accident! 1/2

The fight for genuine climate justice will always and should intersects with queer justice. The exacerbation made by climate crisis, will result to massive climate-induced migration. It will be the marginalized communities like the LGBTQ+ who will be most at risk. 1/2

If SMC is truly genuine in canceling PAREX, they should revoke their agreements with TRB & DENR & withdraw their permit applications with LGUs as well as other expressway plans. We also urge LGUs to reject these permits & instead work towards a sustainable vision for Pasig River.
WILL THE SMC HEED ADVOCATES’ CALL?
Environmental, heritage and mobility advocates called on the San Miguel Corporation (SMC) to scrap its toll deal and environmental permit application for the planned Pasig River Expressway (PAREX) after the conglomerate’s chief announced the
If there are things I learned in my years of climate activism, it is the reality that defending our planet is a privilege and should be accessible to all. Climate activism needs to become more inclusive and accessible to everyone.
Bakit ngayon lang nagpapahearing ang mga senador kung kailan may lupa nasa dagat ng Manila Bay? All these theatricals for the sake of what? Sa una pa lang dapat hindi na ito pinayagan, better yet hindi dapat nagtitiwala ang gobyerno sa mga tulad ni Ramon Ang.
San Miguel is no longer pursuing its earlier plan to build the Pasig River Expressway Project, says Ramon Ang.
“Narinig niyo na ba na tinuloy ko? Hindi na… We are very sensitive to the opinion of the public,” Ang said.
Bullshit. This is what a car-dependent society looks like! You know exactly why they are increasing in numbers, and banning e-trikes and e-bikes from roads will only increase accidents.
How about prioritizing safety through education rather than restrictive measures?
Bawal na sa national roads ang mga e-trike at e-bike, ayon sa Metro Manila Council.

Says someone who is from a DEPARTMENT that allowed to build Kaliwa Dam, Bulacan Aerotropolis, and put dolomite sand in the Manila Bay. ANG GULO NIYO, SA TOTOO LANG.
Metro Manila is extra hazy due to air pollution and will continue to rise due to more skyways and highways being built that "hope to address traffic". But one thing is for sure, more highways, more cars= more money for Ramon Ang and capitalists.
#NoToPAREX
Ofc, we know who the true enemy is. That is why we need to focus on holding them accountable for their actions, starting with the government and corporations.
Science is clear, but the govt letting these things happen. In 2050, some parts of Manila will be submerged due to sea-lvl rise, but they still build a new district in the waters of Manila Bay. SMC wants to build PAREX on top of the Pasig River to connect it to other expressways.
Baha sa NLEX?

1/ It's tragic to see ppl attributing extreme heat to "cruel summer" (no pun intended) (in which we are in PH coz its April) forgetting that it's the climate crisis, which is fueled by our dependence on fossil fuels. Can we talk more about the reality of our situation instead? 🧵

Clean Air Act is intended to protect public health and the environment, not to stifle dissent! It is a symbolic way of expressing anger and disapproval. PNP is literally using the Clean Air Act as a pretext to crack down on dissent.

This is a blatant abuse of power by the Marcos Jr. regime. Muting Rep. Raoul Manuel is a clear attempt to stifle dissent and maintain their grip on our country's finances!
The Filipino people deserve transparency and accountability, not authoritarian tactics.

Walang alam sa user experience ang current Mayor at PDO. Tapos gagawin niyong MMDA Chairman si Isko? Never umunlad at uunlad ang Maynila sa mga ganitong anti-pedestrian protocols at government policies.
Went on a bike ride yesterday & I will say it again that the Marikina riverside has a lot of potential. Right now, it's just a big parking lot and catch basin whenever water overflows. IDK what stopping Marikina LGU to fix it & making things happen to like how Iloilo River is.
With the approval of these projects alongside PAREX, Kaliwa Dam, and Bulacan Aerotropolis, there must be an urgent need for transparency, accountability, and strengthened regulations to ensure that DENR prioritizes environmental preservation over short-term gains!

Tourism in PH has resulted in urban transformation (capital accumulation, immigration, diversification, land grabbing, and conversion) on our islands, but it has also shown the evils of white privilege and consumption.
