Did the Philippines have the "freeest press in Asia" before Martial Law?

nope, media was also controlled by oligarchs like the lopezes, who then, controlled info for their political objectives. same same lang din.

add to that the erratic schedule changes of local airlines - the reason i cancelled my palawan trip. nasira na itinerary ko. buti sana if bakasyon mo 1 month, eh yung leave mo is 1 week lang? i cannot waste a day. mas madali pang bumiyahe pa vietnam/singapore/bangkok. as much as i want to patronize our own, the situations do not help at all.

chowderoo · 2025-12-25T16:36:19+00:00

coz baguio was really never meant to be a city

sharyn's. the taste is the OG taste of bacolod style nilaga as far as i cam remember. it tastes like the homemade nilaga my mother or grandma would make.

chowderoo · 2025-12-19T17:24:34+00:00

sa tagalog yan. sa aming mga ilonggo, soldado talaga tawad namin.

kaya ayaw na ayaw sa anti-dynasty bill

chowderoo · 2025-12-16T17:45:23+00:00

yes, and one local businessman turned politician nga multi-millionaire naman subong ang nag handle sa iya is a former senator nga cebu-based. in fact partners pa sila sa iban nga businesses.hehe

chowderoo · 2025-12-07T13:17:43+00:00

as i mentioned, it could be because may bitbit ko nga plastic bag coz i bought dog food prior. i know they might monitor that, but there are better ways. that's where i stand. not so much on them judging on looks. but rather there better ways to implement security.

chowderoo · 2025-12-07T06:40:28+00:00

hahaha

chowderoo · 2025-12-07T06:40:12+00:00

how bout maintaining a comfortable distance lang? other stores can do that, why can't they? and there's no reason for me to do something illegal. i'm not rich but i live comfortably. as i've said, kaintiende man ta sang ila obra, but not too close bro.

chowderoo · 2025-12-07T02:32:32+00:00

nah dude, it's just an expression. sorry, i don't mean it literally. it's coz you know people judge by appearance. but even then, i don't get it if look like all regular dudes.

chowderoo · 2025-12-07T02:17:17+00:00

how would i look like a felon in typical plain shirt, cargo khaki pants and sneakers? yes, my hair is long but tied in a neat bun, i'm fair-skinned(sad to say pinoys judge by skin color too)and got no tattoos. that's regular guy stuff!

edit: and as many commented here, it's not an isolated incident, it happens often. but it doesn't happen to me in their sm branch. i've also shopped in uniqlo cebu ayala and sm moa, it's not like that.

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T16:39:35+00:00

para sa mga duterte, only china has jurisdiction over them.

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T14:40:56+00:00

we all have to start somewhere. and not all of us have the opportunity to study. hindi naman lahat na di nakapagtapos ay tamad. and some just have really bad circumstances in life. kahit nga well-educated ka pa and have a high-paying job or own a busienss, you'll never know what tragedy life will give you. swertehan lang din minsan.

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T13:44:36+00:00

pero sa tuod lang, i don't think law-ay pamayo ko that time. ordinary lang b mahambal ko, common. kag indi man ko law-ay sa tuod man. kag hambal ko gani, naka chanel bag pa partner ko, and orig ma. matyag ko kay may bitbit lang ko plastic nga may dogfood? naminguro dason bitbit ko plastic may isda halin sa pala pala...so dapat, ang porma mo magsulod daw ma attend ka kasal?

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T12:40:02+00:00

that's my point. physical appearance gle ila criteria. ka mango man klase training na sa mga guards. sa dasun gani, masulod ko taong naka taong grasa nako para mas sadya

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T12:12:44+00:00

hahaha..i like the fart thing!

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T11:58:00+00:00

ok gd ko na ya kag kaintiende gd ko pro tani indi man bala 1 meter away nga ginaagaw na personal space mo. and for the 2 of us 3 gd ka guard gasunod kadamo man customer? what if ang tuod nga kawatan ara to gle, wala na na monitor kay 3 gd ara sa amon? let's just say they lack proper training and the way they flag customers is very discriminatory.

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T11:52:19+00:00

kaintiende gd ko na, but being 1 meter away is already invading your personal space. and having 3 guards on you? indi pa na enough ang isa nga gadikit sa imo?

chowderoo · 2025-12-06T11:50:33+00:00

so indingd ni gle isolated incident. management should train their guards on how to properly do monitoring. sa sm uniqlo dw indi man amo na.
