Manila, Philippines -- Bilyon-bilyong piso ang nailipat sa mga bank accounts ni Alice Guo, ang dating Mayor ng Bamban, Tarlac, at sa mga accounts ng kanyang mga kumpanya, ayon kay Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian.

Sa pagdinig ng Senate Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations and Gender Equality noong Lunes, sinabi ni Gatchalian na P1.9 bilyon ang nailipat sa mga account ni Guo mula 2018 hanggang 2024, na kanyang itinanggi.

“Walang pumasok na P1.9 bilyon. I invoke my right. May pending human trafficking related sa issue,” sabi ni Guo.

Samantala, humigit-kumulang P3 bilyon ang idineposito sa bank account ng QJJ farms ni Guo mula 2018 hanggang 2024. “Timing 2017, 2018, 2019 lahat to eksakto kung kailan pinatayo ang Bamban POGO hub,” sabi ni Gatchalian.

Manila, Philippines – Senatorial aspirant Antonio Trillanes IV calls out voters to choose him this 2022 national elections for him to block the passage of a potential mandatory military service being pushed by Vice President Inday Sara Duterte.  Trillanes issued his concern over the said mandate because he argues that the proposal “is wrong in so many levels".

The former military serviceman Antonio Trillanes released a statement opposing the plan of Vice President Sara Duterte. In the said press release from the former infamous senator, VP Sara Duterte allegedly “shows her lack of understanding on national security matters." 

One might argue that Trillanes suddenly has the nerve to question the intent of VP Sara Duterte knowing that he himself was in hot waters during his course of action versus China when he became the person who allegedly initiated a backdoor conversation with the Chinese government during the term of Ninoy Aquino. Many netizens dismissed the reactions of Trillanes while others are also making fun of the Senator’s alleged press release statement against VP Inday Sara.

Manila, Philippines – Another viral Tweet is circulating in social media amid the crisis happening in the entire Visayas region after typhoon Odette’s onslaught last week. The said post explicitly cited that the only working politician in the national government is VP Leni Robredo.

JC Punongbayan said on his Tweet last December 20, 2021: 

Si VP @lenirobredo na lang ba ang nagtatrabaho sa national government. Feels like that.

It only went viral mid of this week when large Facebook pages shared the screenshot of JC Punongbayan’s Tweet.

The short post irked thousands and possibly millions of Filipinos as the message is negating the efforts and initiatives of various branches of the national government. One netizen bravely commented that it is an insult to the Armed Forces of the Philippines who were among the first group to respond to the typhoon victims in Visayas and Mindanao. It is also undeniable that there has been so many relief operations being conducted by DSWD, PNP, and other major government personnel who sacrificed their lives and braced through the danger just to provide aide those areas affected by the calamity.
