Posted by Tagamasid | February 26, 2013, 6:29 pmMaybe you mean juvenile delinquency? If so, my guess is maybe because the current Mayor possesses both blood of the Ilokans and the Tingguians and they are scared with respect to him, not purely scared bec. that’s impossible. When it comes to political killings, I think it’s still early to tell unless they are showing also a respect to the President thru our military/PNP or they had finally realized that the best tactic to win their votes is to act like a true christian and mirrors a true respected dignified person/candidate. Remember there’s no more kontra senyal that could put a voter in a dangerous situation if he will not oblige? So politicians need to convince them now with utmost respect and dignity real, real hard…….
Posted by akong | February 27, 2013, 5:43 pmVoters will be finally treated with utmost respect and dignity in order to win their votes? Yeeaahh… you’re right and I think the best way is to give some portion of/from what they have stolen from the government/people in the guise of vote buying if that’s the only remaining strategy. Comelec please close your eyes for this once in every four years blessings to our less-privileged constituents, after all the money involved were corrupted from them. But no mistake TRAPOS of using social services/programs to win their votes because it’s morally and legally wrong to give what is already rightfully belongs to them in the eyes of law. Examine your conscience, will you?
