This post congratulated a colleague who last August 15 was able to verbally convince a landowner agree to her proposal to a JPA because of the 1. advantages 2. adverse conditions that the project is facing
So she replied thanked me for having a good mentor
For someone who wants to be a millionaire billionaire, this was serious question and often answered with legit ones:
1. Study business
2. Be a businessman/entnrepreneur
3. Save,
4. Invest
5. Work hard
Being an employee: a programmer, data analyst, accountant does not make you rich
But now in the Philippines asking this question, elicits funny answers in light of scandalous flood control projects with the govt:
1. Be a contractor
2. Be a DP...H contractor
3. Be a politician
The recent happening gives a false sense of values to the younger people and does not motivate them probably about the old tenets of working hard, being disciplined, working for your country, being patriotic, being frugal and thrifty.
Its time we make the head lead the tail in the right way. Otherwise, we have to cut the head
This post watched the morning mass at YT today. It talks about the downside of being wealthy. It is easier for a camel to enter the eye of the needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Hower this applies to businessmen who are in cahoots with politicians to plunder the DPWH and the Phl treasury for the billions they are plundering.
There are plenty still of hardworking honest businessmen. Businessmen are blessings to the world. They are vessels through which Gods bounty flow They give jobs and employment, They pay taxes. They give donations to churches. They help build churches. They finance the distribution of Bibles of the Good news Thus not all businessmen are bad
The impeachment of a sitting VP is quite a distraction. There are so many pressing problems and goals that the country faces. And many delight in the confusion and the quarrel that follows. The discussions are illogical and crazy
1. You can disobey the Supreme Court;
2. The Supreme Court may reverse itself
3. The Supreme Court erred because many of the justices were PRRD apoointees
4. The Supreme Court makes it difficult to impeach any one
However we should see rationally the SC ruling
1. The process for impeachment especially the HOR rules, the due process was violated especially
the referral to the Commitee on Justice
2. The endorsement to the Senate was not taken up, voted in plenary
3. With regards to the three previous impeachment complaint:
The Sec general was alleged to have violated the due process, because he was to refer the cases
to the Speaker, and acted within 10 calendar days, and referred to the Commitee on justice
The reading of the complaint the furnishing of the 4th complaint to SD and the presentation of
evidences was not done
Thus the complaint was:
1. Void ab initio
2. Unconstitutional
3. Violated the due process
We learn a lot from this (do not focus on the content) focus on the crtitical thinking, the factual analysis, devoid of political bias. This post learn from this impeachment, as much as this post enjoyed watching the Corona impeachment, and learned much from JPE especially about being irrelievant. relevant to the goal of the presentation and or agenda.
It is an opportunity for self improvement, and the ways of the lawyers, judges.
