Support Pinoy!

2013 reflection: A lot of my countrymen always say that the Government does not support Filipino Inventions. Yes Perfectly True.

. . .And I see that we, its people are not supporting the Filipino products as well.

We are always amazed with the way we see our countrymen improved a lot of things in their life and the inventions that we all know can help them improve our lives as Filipinos and we point out immediately to the Government how un-supportive they are in not recognizing these local talents and not helping them on their research.

Well, looking on other perspective when the great people in the West had developed their products like Steve Jobs's Macintosh, Bill Gates's Microsoft, Henry Ford's Motor (Which was even antagonize by the Government), Andrew Carnegie's Steel Mill  had their start in difficult situations of their own.

But you see, even in difficult situations their products was patronized by their own countrymen!

In ending 2013, I am doing this reflection during quiet times and commemorating Rizal's Death yesterday, December 30, we are not really fully independent in our own beliefs. From head-to-toe most of us will still prioritize foreign brands from our own products.

Now you see a lady in Starbucks Coffee with her iPhone, her iPad and her iMac in the table sipping her iCoffee (pun not intended for the brand) and you know she rides jeepney in and our of her rented apartment near the slums where snatchers are waiting for her.

Now, it is true that we don't get much support from the Government, but do we also have support from our countrymen in using Pinoy products? are you even proud of it?

I die without seeing dawn’s light shining on my Country. . .You. who will see it, welcome it for me. . .don’t forget those who fell during the nighttime. (Rizal in Noli Me tangere).

Sorry for any typos, there's a lot. . .I'm not used to my new Mac. . .hehehe.

Earlier this noon, I was in a queue, and a Chinese man is in front of me. . .

He was murmuring. . . because of maybe, impatience in the long queue and slow system he said "Magmumura na ako sa Chinese e, sa inis ko dito e."

Sabi ko sakanya. . ."I-try mo magmura sa tagalog para naiintidihan naming mga Pinoy, para mainintindihan nila ang gusto mo. . .bakit ka magmumura sa Chinese? Matapang ka magmura pero takot ka kaya ikaw nalang makakaintindi?"

Try mo minsan. . .

Stoney!

It is always fun playing with Stoney!

Opinions and Commentaries

I always believed that there are a lot of things that goes within a person mind and these are then translated either to opinions or sometime commentaries. It is only up to other people how to understand and reflect from these opinions.

Yes, I also understand that there opinions that are made without care.

But I also believe that opinion makers are entitled to it, irregardless if it is made responsible or not and we must also note that reactions to someone's comments also has a lot of responsibilities that come with it.

Life always goes into a series of events, but all of it is under Einstein's Law

"In every action, comes with an equivalent reaction"

I just wonder, what are these ships and war vessels doing in our territory?
