Jacque Bermejo: A New Internet Sensation

Jam — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 16:16:43 +0000

Typhoon “Ondoy” really left a tragic mark on Philippine history. Millions of properties are wasted, hundreds of families were affected, and lives were lost. But despite how tragic it was, the Filipino people have shown their commendable “bayanihan” attitude, as most of our countrymen, multinational companies, celebrities and ordinary people alike helped out with the rescue, prayers, donations and volunteerism.

However, we can expect that some people may take advantage of the situation. Earlier in The Buzz, a local TV talk show, it was reported that some of the taxi drivers raised their fare rates. And if everybody is expressing their heartfelt sentiments and if the affected families were mourning for their loss, one Filipina (or should we call her one?) gained the hatred of most of our countrymen especially in the cyber- and social networking-world because of writing offensive remarks about the situation as she wrote in her Facebook status, which said:

“buti n lng am hir in dubai! maybe so many sinners bak der! so yeah deserving wat hapend!”

This statement was spread all over the social networking sites like Facebook and it has become a Twitter trend topic. One Facebook user created a “hate-page” for her, which has reached almost 4,000 members in a span of hours, was flooded with harsh comments from our kababayans. Her multiply account was also flooded with comments as expected. Right now, she is maybe receiving tons of hate mails also.

Smart Bro Prepaid Per Minute Packages

Jam — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 12:46:23 +0000

One thing I hated about Smart Bro Prepaid was its 30-minute block metering, in which you are charged P10.00 every 30 minutes of logon time. Once you’re connected, P10 pesos (consumable for 30 minutes) will be automatically deducted from your current load. I had a hard time with this consumption-rate method because I had to set my alarm or timer to make sure that I won’t exceed on my browsing time. Even a minute extension will result to a P10.00 charge.

But no worries now, though, because Smart Telecom has implemented its per-minute browsing on Smart Bro Prepaid Internet. To avail of this service, subscribers should register and logon to http://smart.com.ph/Connect/. Register using your Smart Bro Prepaid Internet number. When logged on with your account, click on the “Per Minute Packages” and choose from:

P150 Smart Bro Per Minute Package – 7.5 hours (equivalent to 450 minutes) valid for 7 days
P100 Smart Bro Per Minute Package – 5 hours (equivalent to 300 minutes) valid for 4 days
P60 Smart Bro Per Minute Package – 3 hours (equivalent to 180 minutes) valid for 2 days

Of course, “smart” as they are, they won’t offer this promotion without gaining advantage, the browsing time for each plan was decreased. For example, for the P60 package, instead of the 3 hours browsing (P10 per 30 minute), the browsing time was reduced to 2 hours and 30 minutes. But despite this, I like their per-minute charging because I can log off any time I want.

Transcript of Sen. Mar Roxas’ Speech (Sept. 1, 2009)

Jam — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 12:15:38 +0000

September 1, 2009 (Tuesday) marked another historic event in Philippine politics as Senator Mar Roxas withdraws from presidential race for Senator Noynoy Aquino. Sen. Roxas was applauded for his selflessness and integrity.

Here is the transcript of Sen. Roxas’ speech last Sept. 1, 2009 at Club Filipino, Greenhills, San Juan:

Country above self. Bayan bago ang sarili.

Iyan ang habilin ng aking lolo, President Manuel Roxas.

Our nation is in trouble. Leadership is bankrupt. Institutions are in disarray. People are hungry.

Noynoy Aquino and I share the same outrage over the mess we are all in, the same way we share the solution-clean, honest, selfless public service.

Marami at matindi ang mga problema ng bansa. Kailangan nating ayusin. Matindi ang kalaban. We need a determined force for good far stronger than the festering evil around us.

We need to fight just as our own fathers fought dictatorship, and just as both died believing that good will conquer evil.

Noynoy and I want to make a difference, but we also know that we need to unite to achieve what we want.

I am the President of the Liberal Party.

It is within my power to preside over a potentially divisive process or to make the party a bridge for the forces of change. I choose to lead unity, not division. Bilang pinuno ng aking Partido, magdedesisyon ako.

Mahal ko ang Partido Liberal. My grandfather founded it. My father led it during the most difficult times of Martial Law. Sa harap ng peligro, sa kabila ng napakaraming tukso-hindi siya sumuko.

He inspired me-to stay the course, to fight the good fight, to pass the test of true character. To believe.

Over the weekend, Noynoy and I had many long conversations… Masinsinang usapan. We agreed: Let us forget about ourselves for a moment. This is not about us, this is about our people and our country. This is about our common dream. The dream of our parents.

But let us not remain a country of dreamers. Tama na ang pangarap. Gawin na natin, ngayon.

Today, I am announcing my support for the candidacy of Noynoy Aquino for President in 2010.

Noy has made it clear to me that he wants to carry the torch of leadership.

The passing of our beloved former President Aquino has reawakened a passion among us. I acknowledge this as fuel to bring us to the realization of our dream: Good will triumph over evil.

Ito na ang pinakamabigat na desisyon sa buhay ko. Maniwala man kayo o hindi, ginagawa ko ito para sa bayan, para sa inyo. I do this for unity in support of change. And if that means that somebody must make the sacrifice, it must be me. Ako na.

To you Noy, I say: I began the campaign to sow the seeds para sa pagbabago at reporma. You must now be the one to grow them in the arena of leadership.

Hindi kami maghihiwalay ni Noy. I will stand with him.

At sa aking mga kababayan, sa mga nagtiwala sa akin: Mahal na mahal ko po kayo. Mahal na mahal ko po ang ating bayan. Hindi rin tayo maghihiwalay. Itutuloy natin ang pagbabago sa ating bansa. Itutuloy natin ang laban para sa reporma!

Kay Noy, at sa aking mga kababayan: Country above self! Bayan bago sarili!

Hindi ko kayo pababayaan! Lalaban tayo!
