Hai, nag-inano man tana si Mar? Bilatinana!








Pardon the apparent lack of finesse in the headline but this is the common sentiment of Capiznons at the turtle-pace, if not criminal neglect, shown by the BS Aquino administration in responding to super-typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) that wrought havoc to the Visayas November 8, 2013.

(Bilatinana is a common expletive in Capiz and, by all means, it still pales in comparison to the disrespect that the brains of the pork barrel thievery have for public decency.)


No wonder popular rage is mounting. No wonder, whenever there are mass mobilizations in Capiz protesting against government neglect to rehabilitate Yolanda victims, thousands, nay, tens of thousands, would brave the heat and shout their rage in Roxas City, the capital, and neighboring towns.

No wonder, Mar Roxas's name is being hissed at by Capiznons which is a signal for him to rethink his ambition of running for president of the Philippines in 2016.

The pictures here are the ruins of the Capiz State University, Mambusao Campus from Yolanda. The state-run school is at the back of the Hall of Justice. I sneaked out of the Regional 
Trial Court (RTC) after the hearing to take some shots.


Which reminds me of one funny episode of a presidential wannabee who visited Leyte a week after the November 8, 2013 devastation: he grabbed a motorbike upon arrival and rushed to the scene under drizzles and on slippery road.

The rest is history: Mar failed to reach his destination. His bike skidded. A photo (apparently by his PR aide) shows him about to hit the ground on his bike sans helmet (attention: LTO. This is a violation). “Sumimplang”, as the Filipino word has it.

Bwisit ng Franklin Drilon!
