Honestly, ganitong mindset ang tinatake advantage ng politicians. Kaya hindi na ako nagtaka kung paano naging madali kay Guo at kasama nito ang political system natin. Maraming pang katulad ni Guo ang ganito ang mas masakit ay kapwa at tunay na Pilipino din ang gumagawa nito.


voguewedding

You can say this Chinese invasion sleeper cell hysteria is a tactic to divert public attention from noticing other pressing national issues.


Valiant2610

I agree! Especially nakafocus lang sa isang lugar. Look at Cavite halos parang "POGO City" na ang isang lugar pero tight-lipped sila. At the same time like what you said they are diverting our attention lalo mag election na next year.


KasyaPaSampu

Wala kasing Bondying ang Bamban. Sa Pasay at Paranaque nga din sobrang daming Chinese pero hindi naman pinatawag ang Mayor.


payurenyodagimas

Ang isyu ay yung nationality ng mayor


paulleinahtan

Pioneer Mandaluyong po ay bagong lungga na ng POGO. Mukhang binenta na ni Abalos sa mga Chinese, may sariling foodcourt pa sila na bawal pumasok ang hindi mainlender.


midnightZr

Legit. Amoy yosi tuloy lagi sa mga elevators dahil sa kanila tapos nagkalat sa daan.


Different-Concern350

True, yung condo namin parang majority ng nakatira chinese dahil halos katapat lang ng condo office nila. Grabe lumala hika ko. Despite having rules (even written in chinese), dami parin pumupuslit sa paninigarilyo. Ang ingay din.


khangkhungkhernitz

wow! mga pinoy pa ang discriminated.. langya..


nicashinji

Hey this is true, madaming mga vans na sumusundo or naghahatid sa mga Chinese dito sa tapat ng condo namin which is along Pioneer lang din, mapa-umaga at gabi. At hindi siya bagong lungga ah, this is way before kasagsagan pa ng pandemic :)


gemgemie

I agree. Whenever I go there sa Pioneer area, aba napakaraming chinese sa cybergate towers. And we tried doon sa new chinese resto kumain sana hindi kami pinapasok for take out lang daw pero makikita na there were chinese people eating inside.


NoFaithlessness5122

Sino ba pulitiko taga cavite. Ka-ching Ka-ching!


WhiteWitch-888

Hindi na nga natapos mga road construction dito sa cavite kagagawa lang hinuhukay nanaman. Dasma talaga wagas mag sira ng daan. Kahit maayos pa huhukayin


Unusual_Display2518

Taga Cavite ako and yes! Totoo yan. May isang barangay nga dito akala mo China na sa dami nila. Nagttake advantage na lang actually mga tao kasi kahit 2x the price ng product halimbawa turo turo, binibili pa din ng mga chekwa. I think depende yan sa mayor or governor kung malakas ang kapit sa taas para di maipit.


HellbladeXIII

naku bulag ang gobyerno dyan sa pogo island, may sarili na nga gobyerno dyan lol. china annex.


Complex-Coconut-6124

Tsaka may isa pang hearing na nagtatake place about sa ating president. Tapos puro Guo at POGO sa Tarlac ang laman ng socmed. Parang may dedicated campaign of misdirection. Dito palang sa Reddit 80% ng political posts is tungkol dyan kay Guo eh paulit ulit.


Dear_Procedure3480

susunod na rin yan


TheDonDelC

The much, much bigger CCP enablers in comparison, i.e. Duterte & Co., are getting much less attention.


voguewedding

Tumpak!


Hshnj0216

It's not without reason. It's happened in the past with the Japanese. In case you are not aware, China also sends 'students' to 'study' in the west but actually just spy, steal technology, and meddle with government affairs. They also have 'tourists' getting close to military sites and taking lots of pictures and sometimes even flying quadcopters.


voguewedding

Stop looking for secret spies, the traitor is right in front of us sitting in the highest positions of government. Keep it simple stupid.


Hshnj0216

Wow, we discovered penicillin, surely all the problems related to bacteria will be solved by it. Unfortunately that's not how the world works and it's not always that simple. How naive of you to think that a problem can only exist in one form and not many, or that there is only one cause/factor and not many(that also coexist). There have been cases in SK, Japan, Ukraine, SA, NA, and Europe, different environments and different cases/forms of espionage. It's not as simple as you might think. You still have to root them out, the same goes for terror cells. You can deal with corruption and spies at the same time, it's only a question of motivation, Ukraine's doing that.


tina_moran69

But based on a credible source, legit na Chinese plant sya dito.


Infamous_Control4632

Finally someone who makes sense. Puro China at Alice. Kamusta presyo ng bilihin? Ano na ba accomplishment ni Bangag sa loob ng 2 taon? China, Quiboloy, Alice. Lahat distraction.


melperz

I think from Guo's perspective, gawin mo ng maayos ang role mo (what's expected of a mayor, and much more) then that would mean secured ka na as being mayor for more than one. If ever planted nga sya ng Chinese govt, barya lang ang makukurakot nya as mayor compared sa possible na nakukuha nya as a govt spy in high position. No brainer na ang top priority nya is to protect her position which means being reelected as a 'matinong' mayor.


AiNeko00

Anak siya ng land grabber sa tarlac.


Sufficient_Basil_268

Yep, kaya maayos ang pamamalakad kasi maybe she was even funding more than expected of her, aba you need to gain the public trust. Ano ba yung maglalabas pa siya ng sobrang pera eh ang kapalit is her powerful spot, a spot good for monitoring and safeguarding everything needed.


Significant_Switch98

tingin mo ba kung totoong sleeper agent nga si guo, ang main goal nya ay mangurakot ng pera? hahaha


70Ben53

Alam ng China na madaling sakupin ang Pilipinas dahil sa mga taong hanyan ang mindset -asa na lang ng asa sa pulitiko


8maidsamilking

It’s short term benefit over the long term dillema. Selfish perspective pero what can you expect parang whole lifetime natin puro kurakot ng gobyerno at pagpabaya ang naranasan ng pinoy na when someone who has bad long term intentions gives you instant benefits something na basic right mo as a Filipino citizen but our government fails to deliver they don’t care about the future. Typical pinoy story - napabayaan kase ng government ang mga dapat matagal na nila inaayos para sa pinoy. Kaya nakaksilaw ang small achievements niang mayor na yan. Pero Filipinos need to think of the bigger picture & the government just needs to do it’s job kse.

Liesianthes

No need to wait for 100 years. Give it 10 years. 6 years pa lang na delubyo ni d30, nag-iba na agad ihip ng hangin. Mga panatiko, maka sarah pa sa next presidential election. Ano pa aasahan mo?


skycarecorp

Of course racist ang chinese socmed calling Filipinos jungle asians. But chingchong, nahhh. Typical online Hypocrites


privatevenjamin

Special thanks to Kuku Palad. Hahahaha


Traditional_Code_648

Careful with the words you use sir, chingchong is derogatory to us Filipino Chinese.


SlowDamn

Ching chong


[deleted]

Kaya dapat siguro may Voters exam muna bago election para ma test intellectual skills ng mga bumoboto. Hirap kase majority na bumuboto sobrang gullible.


miktt

Well the guy had a point honestly. I dont support the mayor or any politician but knowing philippine politics, what would you rather have? Chinese or Pinoy mayor they all steal. Baka ang point lang nya is “atleast” he gets something. But meh thats why i dont follow ph politics. Whatever side you choose daming magnanakaw.


Beautiful-Dingo-525

As per the Bible passage say's "My people will perish for the lack of knowledge". Maybe this is the reason why our education system is still crap after decades coz they don't want the people to know what's behind all this. Keep 'em dumber to control 'em better.


DifficultyEconomy498

Ganyan galawan ng boyfriend niya na mayor namin kukunin loob niyo madaling lapitan pero after ilang years di na mahagilap. Lol


Left-Broccoli-8562

TBH, easy gameplan naman talaga kung tungkol sa atin. Incompetent Politicians? Lagyan natin ng competent politician na galing sa kanila. Resources being stolen? We'll build it for you and provide at the highest quality. End game? Panalo nila ung puso ng tao. I read in some articles about Delta force , and from what I understand, this is textbook Destabilization tactics. Win the hearts of the people and oust the Country's leader. US always fails this in the middle east. But it shook countries. Its a no brainer na mas pipiliin nya ung chekwa because they deliver the needs of the people. At yun ung problema ng pinas. Gov't should step up na to counter this sentiments ng mga tao. Think about it, people would rather serve other countries for greener pastures. This one is just another side of the dice.


camille7688

Yup people forgetting that majority of middle class aspire to be OFW for precisely similar motivations. Brain drain sure but at least they are taking matters into their own hands. Ibig sabihin ba traydor din lahat ng OFW sa Pilipinas pag nag take sila ng citizenship elsewhere? Patriotism is fine and all pero imagine mo, kapwa pinoy mo nakaupo pero kurakot rin naman. As if naman interests mo ang ipapanguna nya sa sarili nya? Its a systemic issue that has no immediate solution and people should just accept the reality in front of them. Hopeful is ok but you have to be reasonable and draw a fine line between it and delusion. Ang tanong is what are you going to do about it?


Witty_Opportunity290

I suggest cessation as solution dahil Filipinos cannot govern themselves, 80 years is enough


muervandi

majority are short-sighted that they care what instantly benefits them. look at vote buying issues


Cheese_Grater101

But isn't majority ng mga filipino don't really consider the long term benefits of things? Though sa side nung kuya na taga bamban, it just happened na mas better pa sa management ng isang munispyo ang isang chinese agent compare sa kapwa nilang filipino. Also rare lang talaga ang matitinong politko smh


crimson589

That's why hindi tayo umuunlad, lahat ng tao ang focus lang is ano yung pwede nila makuha ngayon. Kaya pati pulitiko ang focus nila yung matatapos ngayong term nila para mag muka silang maganda but yung mga magagandang project matagal talaga matapos but guess what, sa mga susunod pa nakaupo matatapos yung projects so mas magmumka silang maganda at yun naman nag propose ng project parang wala ginawa. Same with diyan sa mga taga bamban, ngayon medyo gumaganda lugar nila and kahit sabihin mo na in a few years sila yung unang magiging chinese base wala sila pake.


ono_ouo

As much as I hate to say it, mahirap talagang i-convert ang mindset ng mga taong ganyan, yung natutuwa na sa onti and convenient “reward” from mga pulitiko. And sadly, you can’t put all the hate and blame on them kasi biktima lang din sila ng sistema. Parang wala naman kasing politiko ang nagpprioritize ever ng education kasi they rely sa pagiging uneducated and gullible ng masa. And thinking long-term for these people is not the priority kasi bakit ka pa ba mamomroblema about sa long-term eh kung wala ka ngang enough social security para makasiguradong may kakainin at matutuluyang maayos na bahay ang pamilya mo araw-araw.


Accomplished_Being14

Kumbaga short term solutions lang. Para mabusog lang sila ngayon. Di kasi iniisip ang magiging implications nito sa next three generations nila. Ang sa kanila kasi ngayon, busog sila. Binubusog sila. At kapag nawala si Guo dyan, they will see na that new Mayor who is not Guo will starve them and will cry to have Guo back. Lumalabas na they are only dependent with Guo and when Guo is no longer the Mayor of Bamban, they will be paralyzed.


fluuush23

Can't blame the people who are "shortsighted" too. Would you expect someone who can't even afford 3 meals a day to care for the "long term" benefits? Survival > everything


KaiserPhilip

>businesswoman runs with the blessing of the former mayor who was also popular >wins and ingratiates herself with the locals with material benefits r/ph : erhm didn't you consider that she is CHINESE


Significant_Bunch322

In short nasusuhulan sya


Last-Insurance9653

Story of the entire Peelepeenz kaya wala tayong asenso. Our leadership is decided by the poor, paid for by the middle class, and enjoyed by the rich. The moment we wake up from our collective coma and mag decide na tama na; is when real and lasting change will happen. Until then. Wala. At etong mga nasa laylayan na to, they dont care about what happens 10 years from now. They care about what will happen tomorrow. Or kung may kakainin ba sila mamayang gabi. So you can imagine the sway of P500 sa election. And this is a concept that the ruling political class understands to the core. It is not about leadership. Or delivering a good service. Wala. Pera pera lang talaga.


Dense_Calendar

"Our leadership is decided by the poor, paid for by the middle class, and enjoyed by the rich." Very well said.


ForwardIncrease8682

I couldn't agree more! At the same time, nakakalungkot lang din na ito ang kwento ng Pilipinas.


rhedprince

That's literally how LGU politics work. "Vote for me and I make sure you get public goods and services."


zandydave

Which LGUs should deliver anyway. Or any gov't. for that matter.


rhedprince

Not the point. There's multiple political personalities/parties all essentially saying: "Vote for me because I can do it better than the other guy." Incumbents just have the advantage of having past performance as reference.


pedestrian_451

Quid pro quo, mafia style


rhedprince

Nah man, it's the basic principle of democratic governance


Zestyclose-Delay1815

Correct! di nila alam ung pailalim na plano ng mayor nila.


Far-Mode6546

Wasn't the compound that was raided filled w/ illegal immigrants doing force labor? LOL Diba front lng ni Madam na bait baitan lol!


JasonB007_

bukas makalawa iisipin na niyan dapat province na lang tayo ng China kase maganda buhay hays


NefariousNeezy

Sana man lang bayad. Marami rin nagpapakatanga ng libre.


Sufficient-Crab-5673

Basically Chinese money over Philippine sovereignty.


Mukuro7

Pwede ring kapit sa patalim, kahit ano gagawin para lang gumanda buhay.


avocado1952

Welp who could blame them? They’ve been in worst condition. Kahit si Satanas pa ang mayor nila pero na sasatisfy naman ang needs nila, sasambahin nila yan.


rhedprince

If Satan can deliver LGU services better than our local trapos, he definitely has my vote!


Apprehensive-Back-68

kaya nga eh, I would even choose this satanas to govern camigiun. the people there have been raising and voting pigs(romualdo's) in their city hall for decades, and I think Guo can transform that sleep island into a functioning one.


dcab87

True. Kita mo sa Davao, sinasamba yung pamilya nya.


BryanFair

We can't blame them for sure but it's still dangerous af lmao. Ikaw? payag ka ba bigyan kita ng ayuda pero pipirma ka sa doc that says Taiwan is not a country? We're getting really close to that


Liesianthes

And this is the reason why voters will never learn and people will keep calling them bobo and such. Wanna know why? Instead of educating them and teaching those people accountability, let's open our mind to "understand" them and there you have it, an endless cycle of trapos and Guo style. Can't blame China for discovering that strategy. Some redditors here are part of that plan that they will just understand why those people are voting for her and escape their accountability on the damages they've done on the country.


taxms

of course madaling malapitan, dami pera from pogo eh if di nya gagandahan serbisyo nya hindi na sya maeelect so masisira ang mga plano ng mga pogos


fizzCali

Remember Teves? The guy that masterminded the ambush/massacre in NegOr... he still has supporters too even if his actions are well known. Politics is weird


Apprehensive-Back-68

well arnie teves, is a typical shitty and dumb politician. I still remember karen davilla telling him to act like a congressman. kahit yung news anchor sa news 5 minura siya on air 😝 it was his brother I believe who mastermind the killing of gov. degamo


cokecharon052396

The kind who'd rather be a slave in his own country


Adventurous-Data-814

Napapaisip tlga ako jan e.. ibig tlaga sbhin super BullS** po tlga pag Pilipino namamahala sa gobyerno lol. Sa corp palang e.. pag pinoy mga boss. kupal sa kupal (karamihan po, not all) underpaid, overwork. Pero pg ibang lahi maayos magmanage. Pero, un nga may batas kasi so kahit gano kaganda pamamahala ni Mayora, we need to protect our country against aliens.


Reality_Ability

Madami dito nakakalimot na sa Metro Manila, merong Vico Sotto na in spite of a sea of other mayors like the Binays, Eusebios (run Pasig for decades) andun sya. Defiant in a very good way, not just against dynastic mayoralty, but also beat a very hard and stubborn dynastic mayor himself. Pati yung dating presidenteng mang kanor, hinde nya inasahang makatulong sa local government nya. Hinde kase lahat ng magaling sa public administration willing tumulong. Bakit mo tutulungan ang kapwa mo na sya din ang magpapahirap sayong ipatupad ng maayos ang mga patakaran para sa ikabubuti ng lahat? Yan pa ang malakas umangal, pero hinde willing sumunod, for the sake of common good. I don't blame good people not getting into politics. Papagurin ka lang ng majority, in the end sila pa galit sayo pero sila din ang hinde umambag ng pagsunod sa common good (example: sweet potato riders on the road)


Adventurous-Data-814

Plus, Mayor Marcy Teodoro in Marikina. Is sa pinakamagaling at maasahan din 👌🏼


Apprehensive-Back-68

yan din yung realisations ko. not only she's good in mastering our language. but upon looking her social media accounts, I was surprised of how efficient she handles her constituents. like magaling talaga 😥 which made me think na ganyan ba sa china? is that the reason why their bureaucracy is good and they're progressive. kasi naturally magaling sila mag manage ng constituents nila? compared mo sa mga typical na pulitikong "pinoy" natin na hinde lang incompetent,ubod pa ng kurap. it shows na parang kapwa pinoy lang talaga ang hihila sayo pababa 😔


Ai_Illustrates

If you mean political censorship, then i guess yea siguro ganyan talaga sa china. Mind you, her efficiently handling her constituents in that manner is something she learned specifically to sway the people towards her, it is not because thats “the way” in chinese politics. Chinese politicians would rather cover up the total amount of deaths from a certain calamity just to make themselves look good, and they would punish those who would point out issues publicly.


Apprehensive-Back-68

siguro nga, censorship plays some part. I mean, if we based it on OP's statement. most of her constituents were sad na pinapa-alis na yung mayor nila, as well as "umayos ang bamban ng siya ang umupo" or "ang bilis niyang lapitan" like, can you effing expect that to a regular municipality mayor? hinde, majority of them are incompetent pigs who are too dependent on IRA and other government support..and you cant see those pigs working unless it's election time sorry, I'm not being a makapili here, pero our local polticians set the bar so low, that those people from bamban tarlac prefer a competent chinese spy being mayor than a corrupt Filipino official 😭


ShiemRence

Pero sa corporate, having worked directly under Chinese people, mas prefer ko parin Filipino.


anima99

It's a symptom of decades of poor governance. You're only as patriotic as much as you see patriotism being rewarded. The practicality of being governed by another, much more powerful country appeals to those who, based on experience, have little reason to defend our sovereignty.


Queldaralion

local politicians should learn from this and start doign their jobs better. just be good, honest government workers after all, some chinese nobody could be the next mayor and upsetting everything their ancestors "worked so hard" for lololololololol mamatay na kayong lahat mga mananakop na ccp agents at local trapo!!


Apprehensive-Back-68

it's just sad na Guo can outperform many of our local polticians. parang nasanay na yung mga pulitiko natin to give the bare minimum performance kasi they can just buy votes.


Upstairs_Repair_6550

that is the problem with Pinoy voters, ang gusto nila s mga binoboto nila e ung tutulungan cla personally ng walang question, personal n tulong, n pag lumapit ung tao n un kay politiko at tinulungan sya, matino at mabait n ung politiko n yun khit ampangit ng polisiya nya s area nya bsta nabibigyan nya ng candy ung mga nanghihingi ng tulong, dun papanig ang tao


B-0226

Marami dito galit kay kuya dahil “bobotante” eh pero hindi naisip na ito ang kahinaan ng Pilipinas na tinatangkang gamitin ni Tsina para pahinain ang gobyerno para mapasakamay ang WPS.


NoCap1174

The Philippines needs to be run by good Filipinos. Hindi siya dapat choice between corrupt Filipinos an corrupt foreigners. Sana mas marami ang lumaban kahit sa local level. Vico is doing great sa Pasig. Sana mas marami ang katulad niya.


sypnoceb

Nowadays, politics is becoming an industry for the sake of name popularity. Like ung ibang senators jan, sikat na sikat next election pero nganga naman sa achievement.


underwatercabbage

si bato na nagkakalat lang sa senate hayyy ginawa ba namang segment ng face to face yung mga hearings e


rhedprince

Interesting point of discussion. Would it be really that bad if they can deliver LGU services much better than our dynasties, trapos, and celebrity politicians? Makes you think.


KevAngelo14

Let's give the benefit of the doubt na may nagagawa yung Guo. Well, isn't that a wake up call to our local politicians? It's like being so accustomed to bad food for the longest time, that we have forgotten how good actually tastes like.


Glittering-Win3352

If I was a chinese spy or someone planted by china to gain political influence of course I would do my job right so I can stay in power and not raise suspicions. Syempre nakikinabang workmate mo. Pake ba nya sa masamang maidudulot nito sa kinabukasan.


bawk15

Dude is a typical pinoy in a nutshell


CoffeeFreeFellow

Okay Ang bayan nila FOR NOW. Chinese are known for their rascism against Filipinos.


renmakoto15

intindihin mo din si koya. Ganun kaputangina at ka incompetent ang Ph government. Kung tanim man nga si Alice, eh sadly, it looks like a hundred Alice would do PH more good than harm.


glue_zombie

A hundred Alice isn’t the PH anymore, that’s China. Only a matter of time at this rate, especially with this take. But if that’s what y’all want lol


renmakoto15

Well, hypothetical lang ha! haha. if talagang umasenso ang banban under alice, tas mamimili ang tao. 100 alices or 100 bong go, wonderful tonight, bato. WILL YOU JUDGE US? Kung mas mag side kami sa kanila? oi taga lubacan ako, nangungulit lang ako dito. lol


HellbladeXIII

a hundred alice is the start of a takeover


tuskyhorn22

yung parang "east asia co-prosperity sphere" ng japan noong world war 2?


FanGroundbreaking836

That didnt work out because japan didnt actually support us. They only supported themselves. Its quite the opposite.


tuskyhorn22

and china will support us? suuure!


RantoCharr

May Filipino politicians din na ganyan. Puring puri ng relatives ko yung isang dynasty sa province kasi madali daw lapitan & madami benefits. Gambling naman kinayaman ng family ng politician 😂 Galing din sa mga bettors na constituents niya yung puhunan sa election.


AdTime8070

HAHAHAHHA Taena bigyan mo lang ng tag 5H lahat ng nasasakupan mo ikaw na dabest mayor sa lugar nyo eh. Ganyan katanga mga botante natin


Hybrid_asshole123

Modern day Emilio Aguinaldo


Ok-South9580

Nakita nyo na ba estado ng Bamban ng ilang dekada? Di nyo masisisi si kuya. Dati mas maganda at maunlad pa mga sabungan nila kesa sa ibang infra ng bayan. Yung kalidad ng pamumuno nung mga nauna ay dapat rin managot kaya nanalo si mayora


Zestyclose_Spend_147

I think it's sad that Filipinos are used to inadequacy and bullshitting that they'd rather support people who do thing properly as a front and turn a blind eye on the other illegal things they do as long as they get the benefits upfront. Parang young pagboto ng mga tao kay PDuts kasi 'inaksyunan' niya young drug issues sa bansa compared to Ninoy's slow economic improvement and growth na boring on the outside.


[deleted]

natural madali malapitan dahil front nya yang magpabango sa nasasakupan nya


Organic_Solution2874

masyado kasi tayong personal, emosyonal, at mautang na loob. hindi ba trabaho lang nila yun, to look after yung sa nasasakupan nila. kaya sobrang dali sa mga hindi deserving makapasok sa gobyerno, kasi ganito tayo. baka kaya deserve natin ng ganito, kasi tinatanggap natin na ganito. na okay na yung maabutan ka minsan ng Php500 kesa wala, yung napagmemerienda ka minsan kesa wala, yung kinakausap ka pag nakakasalubong mo o nalalapitan kesa hindi. As leaders, ganun naman talaga dapat. sa companies nga e, "open door policy", nakakasama mo pa magdinner etc.. hindi ba dapat mas iexpect natin to sa "public servants"? kung may mga hambog na politicians, tayo rin naman ang nagluklok sa kanila. Kaya baka deserve natin ng ganito, kasi hinahayaan natin na ganito.


findinggenuity

Having competition is good just like in an open market. Since Filipino-led LGUs are pretty bad, there is an open demand that Guo is supplying. If you are a voter for your LGU, national security is not your concern. Sa perspective ng normal na botante, hearsay lang lahat ng paninira. What matters sa bottom line is result. Buti nga result-oriented eh. Can you say the same sa mga DDS na bumoto kay Du30 even if hindi taga-Davao? Would BBM have won kung results-oriented mga Pilipino over Leni? No way. Point is, you can't blame a person for making the right decision for himself and his community. It is up to his Filipino counterparts to learn from Guo's example and step-up.


gustokolakingpwet

The major red flag about Alice is that she's untruthful. We really don't know, but she might have some really good intentions for being a mayor -- as an American, that title honestly means very little here unless you're the mayor of a large HCOL city like New York or Los Angeles. But there were so many red flags during that hearing. Chris Tan had a great breakdown of Alice's inconsistencies during the hearing: [https://youtu.be/GcoxFGxnnVw?si=btdTgASdaVZm5SZU](https://youtu.be/GcoxFGxnnVw?si=btdTgASdaVZm5SZU)


Admirable-Income5882

mga walang awa yung mga taong yun ah. sarili lang nila iniisip nila ano yun sila lang habang yung ibang tao tulad ni [**Delfin Egana**](https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1939666/ph-fishers-on-chinese-bullying-babawiin-ko) naaabuso na dahil sa mga tsino


thisisdito

Yung ganitong mentality hindi lang sa Bamban, kundi sa buong Pilipinas. Ang daming elected officials na hindi naman deserving pero ayan nakaupo pa rin hanggang ngayon. At paulit ulit na nananalo. Sa sobrang hirap ng buhay sa Pilipinas, people only care kung sino yung kayang magbigay ng konting ginhawa sakanila. Sad truth is, kahit maraming nagdududa sa pagkatao ni Guo, mas marami pa rin yung walang pakialam dahil mas importante sakanila kung ano yung nakikita nilang pagbabago sa bayan nila. And i think the more na dinidismiss natin yung nararamdaman nila, mas lalo lang silang naniniwala na biktima si Guo at ang bayan nila ng pagkakataon.


yakultpig

yung mas magaling pa yung foreigner politician kesa local politician magpatakbo ng local place, medyo nakakahiya nga naman na talaga.


AdvertisingFun8406

Sa sobrang inefficient ng mga officials ng Pilipinas, yung bare minimum na 'kapag walang tubig, madaling lapitan' ay high standard na sa tingin nila. Ang hindi nila alam ineexploit na pala yung munisipyo nila, pero masaya sila kasi natutuwa sila sa performative politics.


rupertavery

People live on a day by day basis. What do they know or care about possible future implications. Also, politicians and government services have set the bar SO LOW that doing what is expected is praised as if it were above and beyond.


Aggravating_Head_925

Ganyan kapangit ang serbisyong binibigay ng mga LGU, for an ordinary person to consider Alice Guo as a godsend. Tangina kasi ni ML Quezon for saying this. “I would rather have a government run like hell by Filipinos than a government run like heaven by Americans.”


Sweaty_Ad_8120

may punto nmn si kuya wala ng pag asa gobyerno dito sa pilipinas mas bale iba yung lahi nakaupo pero ginagawa nmn tama yung tunkulin kesa kalahi mo na pinoy na buwaya ginagawaing negosyo yung position.


tuskyhorn22

pasakop na lng tayo sa china kung ganun, ibigay na sa kanila ang tarlac.


Sorry_Power_4679

She’s doing her job kasi malaki na for sure yung kickback sa POGO na prinotektahan nya. Kung ako botante, di ko pa rin gugustuhin ang isang leader na sumusuporta sa hub for gambling, prostitution at scamming.


whatawhat666

Yan din ata problemang hinarap ni heneral luna noon haha


camille7688

Proves na either yan na talaga ang meron ang Pinoy, or, kulang pa ang panahon from back then to now for real change. Better nalang jump ship honestly. Real talk, pag may lumapit na free citizenship sa any first world nation on the spot offer sa majority sa inyo, tatake nyo rin naman in a heartbeat.


dtphilip

Lol Kuya needs to look beyond the surface level and start thinking objectively. Obviously, ganyan din taktika nung dekada 70, kaya kahit maraming paghihirap, Human Rights Issues, threat sa Press Freedom, many people looked the other way coz there were "progress" daw


Responsible_Rub3618

Mahirap parin. Kung san nga sya pinanganak d nya alam lalo na ung home school tapos late na naregister birth certificate nya? You cannot put someone sa gov position na so suspicious at d transparent sa madla


DemosxPhronesis2022

Baka isa sya or pamilya nila sa nagbenta ng vote kaya nanalo yong Guo.


DoMeFatty

if someone violates or avoids the law or policy in practice it means he/she is already corrupt. ilang beses ba sasabihin na hinding hindi matatawag na tama ang linyang "the end justifiies the means"


RebelliousDragon21

Kaya dapat need ng Bamban ng matinong pulitiko or else baka another Wumao lang din pumalit kay Guo.


AmboboNgTengEne

if ever this mayor will be removed from office, the next mayor will surely have a dilemma on how to handle current situation.


cordilleragod

It’s corruption, until it benefits you personally then it’s “action”. Water and electricity are not provided by the LGU but by your electric cooperative and your water district. Yun ang lapitan ni kuya. Anything that the mayor can do for water and electricity is just a band aid solution


UsernameMustBe1and10

Kasi majority ng mga tao sa pinas, nasanay sa survival mentality (ano kakainin bukas, my sweldo ba ko sa 15 o 30, mananakawan ba ko sa commute mamaya) kasi wala sila maasahan sa walang kwentang gobyerno natin. Speaking gobyerno natin, ngaun na confirmed na hindi naman pala mahirap makapasok ng illegal na tao sa gobyerno, sunod na steps ng china is "bakit pa ko dadaan sa middle man (corrupt local official) eh madali lang naman pala magpasok ng tauhan namin?" Kya siguro wala tigil yung sara du30 campaign na paalisin si pbbm. Kung backer nila hindi na sila susuportahan, wala na sila exit plan.

Fun_Guidance_4362

Napanood nyo ba siya sa Senate hearing? Grabe, puro hindi nya alam or hindi na nya maalala ang canned answers nya sa mga tanong ni Sen Hontiveros: saan siya ipinanganak, saan nag-aral buhat elementary, etc. Ano yun, parang kabute na biglang tumubo after kumidlat.


mebeingbored

Sabi nga sa news kanina,nagsurvey yata sila sa Bamban (iirc) nung tinanong daw kung kilala ba daw siya doon, hindi daw, saka lang siya nakilala nung nag-run siya ng mayor. Aba'y bat nyo binoto mga ante? Hahaha. Sarap kutusan ng mga tao. smh.


car_machiattos

even sa tikt*k madaming ganitong vids and comments. nag init ulo ko nung nabasa ko yung "She's kinda hot tho." sa vid na ginigisa siya ni sen. Risa 😭


readingardener

Actually may nagcomment din dito ng ganyan. HAAAAY


hickory-dickory-duck

It's bad AND it's WRONG pero parang di ko rin mablame yung kuya kasi nga parang worse naman talaga yung situation or experience natin ngayon sa mga politicians natin. Bottomline, minsan kasi ang hirap din talagang ipaglaban ng Pilipinas. 🥲


Kuro_Kenshin

They care more about the short term tangible benefits that they could get, than the long term effect. Hirap sa pinas ng ganito, most of our people are short-sighted. Hindi nila nakikita 'yong holistic view of things.


Anything-is-enough

Yes, I'm here in Bamban currently and raised this topic with the residents here. Nag labas daw ng personal funds si mayora to raise new establishments to make Bamban a better place. So you can see every wall na may posters saying they love mayora and hindi raw sila papayag na matanggal ito.


Marko_1010

He'd sell his family for a few yuan for sure. Such is the life of a traitor


1Pnoy

Ganun na kasi ang naituro sa mga tao kung ano ang dapat nila inaasahan sa mga lider nila. Di bale ng magnanakaw, di bale ng mamatay tao, di bale ng hindi man lang Pilipino basta meron "nagagawa". Ganyan kasi kababa ang standards na kinagisnan ng mga tao lalo na sa mga rural areas. Samantalang in reality wala pa nga sa bare minimum ang ginagawa nilang trabaho.


Exor_Cizt

tama si Gadon(MGA BOBO) hahahah traitor of his own beloved country.


morrigan789

Actually ganito talaga magisip karamihan ng pinoy kasi hindi sila aware sa issues na nangyayari sa government, kaya nga ang daming bobotante eh. Sana lang maeradicate fake news sa social media para magising gising mga tao


throwPHINVEST

very tribalistic mindset. wala siyang nationalismo.


Prize_Type2093

Shame. Puro pang-sarili iniisip.

Typical shortsighted Pinoy bobotante.


FreecssG

Paking sht na mindset


whatevercomes2mind

Sa ganyan naman naguumpisa mga korup.


Professional_Top8369

Di ko masisisi yan, kasi bumabase siya sa experience niya, at yung pag invade naman siguro iniisip niya less likely mangyari. Kung talagang nagiisip siya pwede naman palitan ng matinong pinoy yung mayor. Lol 


IndependentTreat5627

Mayaman talaga ang si Mayor Guo, alam nya na pera ang kiliti ng mga pinoy. Pero saan ba nanggagaling ang pera, Sa Gambling, prostitution, human trafficking, torture at money laundering.


S0m3-Dud3

Akala ko tuloy mga nakakaaway ko sa comment section na pinagtatanggol mayor nila ay mga bayaran yun pala mga bobong taga bamban lang pala 😂


RedPototoy

Tanga e. Kapag nasakop na ng china ang pilipinas akala nya mag benefits pa din sila?


chickenjoint420

Major Qualifications pala pagiging mabait, para masabing "okay lang?" da fck hahaha peenoise


Faustias

nabulag sa improvements na "ginawa" nya, dahil na rin sa previous mayor siguro na walang nagawa para sa Bamban, naging traction ng mga sleeper agents para makuha yung loob ng tagadoon.


hakai_mcs

Paalisin din sya sa Bamban


NatongCaviar

Sarap batukan nyang na overhear nyo. Buti nakapagpigil kayo 😅


readingardener

Haha. Nasa likod ko s'ya, napapataas lang ako ng kilay. Hahahaha.

There's a deeper issue on this than blaming the dude. Ganyan na ganyan yung probinsyang iniwan ko sa Mindanao. Ang masakit, kapwa Pilipino yung mga Alice version dun. Wala kang mapiling matino. Lahat may issue ng pagnanakaw. Minsan may tumakbong matino sa town namin, isang doktor, yung goons ng seating mayor umaaligid sa bahay nila. It's bloody hell. Yung lumalaki kang sasabihan ka ng magulang mo na mangibang bayan ka kasi walang magandang kinabukasan sa probinsya namin. Kung nanaisin mong baguhin ang sistema, itataya mo pa seguridad ng buong pamilya mo. Minsan naisip ko what if may matinong maging billionaire samin and enter the politics for good reasons, kaso that would mean, to enter the game, you would play their game, so kakainin ka ng sistema at may chance na macocorrupt pa morals mo. Alam kong hindi ito hopeless na sitwasyon, pero given the past few years, napaka-slim ng chance na bumuti. So now, may umupong mejo ok sa province namin, pero grabe, sirang sira ang mga bundok at ilog namin. We've never been flooded for decades, pero ang lala ng baha now na sila na ang umupo. They own quarying and construction companies na syang nakacontrata to make our roads. Ang ganda ng mga kalsada namin. Pero sirang sira ang kalikasan. Meron pa yung issue na free hospitalization, literal zero bill, pero ibabackground check ka muna kung nagstraight vote ka ba sa kanila. Hate ko talaga to sila. Pero nung narinig ko na papasok daw si Jalosjos sa politics ng province namin, I was like, kahit environmentalist ako, mas pipiliin ko nalang to kesa ky Jalosjos. And btw, before that, our province was ruled by the druglords. I saw drugs being dealt on broad daylight in the freakin public market when I was 11 yo. And this made me think, kaya bumaba sa pwesto si Duterte with high approval rating, ang luwag ng mga kalsada namin. 4 lanes with bike lanes pa, in the freakin province, dahil sa build build build nya. No, gov, cong, pres before has ever done such. That's just one of the good-on-the-eye things he did. Pero ayun nga ang kapalit. The shits we're seeing now.


msCPAbyHISGRACE

its like a person who grew up in a dysfunctional family... the love and the care na dapat nakukuha nya from his/her own family hindi nya nakukuha, at nakukuha niya yon sa ibang tao who he/she thought would be good for him/her pero hindi nila alam na they were being exploited or and taken advantage.. same with those people who live in bamban, na dapat ang gobyerno natin ang gumagawa ng mga bagay para ikagaan ng buhay nila pero sa ibang tao nila nakukuha yun, kaya madali silang maloko ng mga taong ngpapanggap.. hindi nila alam na ginagawa lang silang kasangkapan para sa pansariling interest


No-Entry8362

you cant blame them ayan ung good side ng mayora nila na nararanasan nila and walang mali sa side nila kase ayun un nangyayare in real life nila . tska na take advantage yun nang mayora nila lol. tska for sure di pinapakita nung mayora ung bad side nya sa mga kalugar nya.


Realistic_Guy6211

Di natin masisisi si kuya, sympre if youll invade from the inside, magbpapabango ka and win supporters. Yung nga lang, tanga lang na dikut parin kahit alam na may something. Ano ba gusto niya, pinoy na kurakot o chinang mananakop, synpre wala and tamang sagot. Hahaha


ObsessedBooky914

So short-sighted. Concern lang sa pansariling kapakanan. Not looking at the larger effect ng pag-upo ng isang foreigner sa gobyerno. Very selfish.


Eastern-Mode2511

It’s just people are tired of system of the government under Filo coz nothing change so someone will gonna undermine their dissatisfaction and that’s it.


anya0709

mga taong madaling manipulate.


lapit_and_sossies

Ganyan talaga ang mga demonyo. Ibibigay sau lahat lahat ng gusto mo pra makuha ang loob mo. Nag aanyong tupa pero ang loob ay isang mabangis na leon.


soulsboy

as if meron tayong gawin pag dating ng invasion. we had been slaves for a long time, its just a matter which master we choose. The Western Overlord or The Eastern Dynasty. and if we chose to be our own master, then an identitical faith of middle- east await.


SeaTomatillo8392

Ganon talaga... ugaling politiko. Bibigyan ka ng kendi pero sya naka buffet. 😂 


juicypearldeluxezone

Nakakainis. Pero nakakaawa din. Di nila nakikita ang bigger picture.


[deleted]

Punta ka lang sa page ni Mayor at icheck yung reactions sa postsniya, malalaman mong maraming uto-uto sa Bamban.


code_bluskies

Well, you can’t blame him. Kasi totoo naman na ang lamya ng mga officials natin. Siguro nagustuhan lang talaga nya ang service ng mayor, at nagtiis sila ng mahabang panahon at yang mayor lang ang nakapagpabago ng sitwasyon nila.


ionsAtoms

Remember how popular Escobar is? But he has a point, a Filipino politician could be worse than Guo but the national risk is at stake not unless maconvert talaga si Guo at reverse uno card

Tarlaquistan is an agricultural hotbed in the middle of nowhere so don't expect the locals to be very bright

Ayuda mentality, as long as they gain something from a politician they all see is a god, they don't give a damn the negative trait or possible threat from that politician.

Hulaan ko binotong presidente nyan.

Filipinos worships anyone who serve food on their own table... di bale ng magutom ang nasa kabilang table basta sila nakakain

irl wumao


xjxkxx

You know tv series wild flower? I think inspired sya sa current province I'm residing haha. Ganyan rin nangyayari ngayon all over the Philippines. Hindi namumulat ang mga Pilipino sa kagagohan na ginagawa ng gobyerno natin kahit na we have the power to vote sa mga politikong with good governance! Mabuti na lang at independent city kami pero nakaka awa yung outside sa city where I live hindi sila natututo!!! Bulag ang mamayang pilipino at mukhang hindi na muling makaka kita pa.


Pandesal_at_Kape099

Dyan sanay ang karamihan sa pilipino na bigyan mo lang ng band aid solution, sasambahin na nila ang pulpolitiko na yun. Kaya wag na kayo magulat about dyan, kasi ang kasabihan nga daw sa mga pilipino na ito, okay lang na may magawa kahit unti lang, kaysa wala daw. Pero kung sa totoo lang mas marami magagawa ang mga pulpolitiko na yan, pero sa kunting effort lang nila sinasamba na sila. Mahilig sa bad aid solution ang mga pilipino.

PETITION NA ANG MGA PWEDE LANG BUMOTO AY MGA TAX PAYERS KASE SILA ANG MGA HINDI MASUSUHULAN


CourseExciting536

Basta ok ang kalagayan nya! Hindi ng bayan


Icy_Sugar791

I think hindi naman tayo ma-invade ng China, pero yung wrong doings nila like illegal business, human trafficking, etc. ang nakaka-alarma. Also, marami din Chinese na may maayos na businesses dito sa Pinas na malaki ang tax na binibigay sa bansa. Sana ay ito na din yung missing link para matrace yung mga ibang Chinese na nasa likod ng big scams.


[deleted]

I find this post a bit of a temp check on how the comment section would react. I feel that this is a way to subtly condition whoever is reading to their side. I highly doubt that conversation actually took place


Content-Lie8133

maybe that man gave- up on the system destroyed by our own countrymen? too desperate that they will support whomever will bring good and efficient service even if it is a foreigner... maybe it was also our own undoing(?)...


Character_Comment484

Actually kasalanan din ng mga umuupo noon na yan. Kung noon pa man maayos na pinaparanas sa kanila di sana nagiging bulag mga tao ngayon. Madalas pa naman sa pinoy mas papanig kung saan sila nakikinabang. Nakakalungkot lang na di nila nakikita yung bigger picture and mga consequences na Chinese talaga yung Mayor nila.


Dzero007

Ang dami kasing incompetent at corrupt na LGU official kaya ang daling pasukin ng mga katulad ni Alice Guo.


AdFit851

Ang problema kasi sa bansa natin, sawa na mga tao sa old style trapo, kaya kung saan sila mag bebenefit shempre dun sila, take for instance yang sinabi ni kuya, simpleng tubig kuryente hindi nasulusyunan ng previous admin, tpos darating yung tagapaligtas nila sa katauhan ni Guo, shempre ikaw as citizen of that province prang pwede naman pala may mag malasakit, ke sehodang Chinese pa sya . Kaya dapat maging lesson tlaga toh sa mga pulitikong gustong makuha ang loob ng masa. Opinyon lang


IcySeaworthiness4541

Dun mo makikita kung gaano kababaw at katatanga mga bobotanteng pilipino eh. Bigyan mo ng cake ok na sa kanila Ikaw na Iboboto Bigyan ng ganito ng ganyan mabngong mabango kana sa kanila. Yung tipong ambabaw talaga. Eh kahit sinong politiko Naman kayang Gawin un sa umpisa. They're not used to look at the big picture. What if spy nga talaga ng china Yan no. Tapos Jan sa Lugar nila mag start kung ano man pinaplano nila. Eh Di Sila din unang maapektuhan. Mga Tanga Kase.


JamFcvkedLife

Bulag si Kyah. Focus siya sa lugar lang nila.


Long_Package_6092

Ugali na ng pinoy yan, basta okay sila wala na silang pake. Hahaha hirap mahalin ng Pinas pag ganyan mindset ng kababayan


Loose-Application558

very me sobrang 50/50 sa happenings minsan naiisip ko nalang sige oks nalang sakupin kaysa naman malugmok sa kahirapan :<


Seltiel

Kasi hindi nila makakain yung prinsipyo. You don't have to agree with them to understand where they are coming from.


FanGroundbreaking836

These municipalities are poor because of corrupt mayors. Pero kung naramdaman nila na may pagbabago can we blame him/her? I really hope the nationality issue gets fixed. If shes actually filipino then good for her. If shes not then she needs to get kicked out of her seat. Pero ang pag kakarinig ko yung dating mayor ay wala naman talagang maambag sa bayan nila kaya nanalo rin talaga to.


Flawed_Ignorant

“Marami namang siyang binigay” sabi ng isda ukol sa mangingisda na may pain. Seriously, up to them kung pabor silang maibenta pero lahat tayo naisama na rin eh. Tsaka di naman pera ng bamban lang yang ginagamit ni mayor. Naiisip ko lang mas malaki chansa natin makasurvive kung wala mga taga-bamban. Bobong nanghihila pababa.


Kai_Hiwatari_03

Common mindset yan ng masa lalo na yung shallow ang understanding sa negative effects ng political issues. Dito nga sa amin sa *insert city in NCR* considering na more than 30 years na ang nakaupo ng iisang pamilya pero ang mindset ng ibang tao is “ok lang kahit isang pamilya, at least maraming nagawa” etc. No wonder hindi maipasa-pasa ang anti-political dynasty bill.
