Laglag or Tanim-Bala (Bullet-Planting) are happening again in local airports



It draws my attention after reading an article on TripZilla site about a new incident called Laglag or Tanim-Bala (Bullet-Planting) by a Filipina passenger by the name of Kristine Bumanlag Moran at the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA). These cases were very rampant from 2010 to 2016 at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Pasay City and other local airports. Here are the things to do to remind you once again while travelling abroad or to any local destinations.

a. Locked your bag when you travel
b. Keep an eye to officers hand especially in Philippine airports
c. Make sure to wrap a plastic to your luggage before check in
d. Watch your bags  on the monitor when passing through X-Ray scanner
e. In case bullets found in your bag, do not touch them, call a lawyer to open your bag.

I am hoping an urgent investigation  of officials, personnels, securities, immigration officers and authorities at our shameful airports. These incidents has contributed nothing but shame and disgrace to innocent people like us.

Reasons why you should support Filipino independent and mainstream films

Image
It is so depressing how badly Filipino independent and mainstream film productions are treated in the Philippines. Even though Filipino films have audience watching in the cinemas, most of our Filipino films were pulled out by some operators and was replaced with Hollywood films after the first day.  This is not way to encourage local directors and producers to create more movies. This is also not the way to educate the local movie audience- they need variety in their choices. This is also not the way to help industry workers- they need to be able to put food on their families'tables. The all-business mindset of cinemas operators is killing the industry. We appeal to them to give the local films the chance to show them for one week and not pulled out after the first day or the first three days. I'm hoping that the new guidelines of the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) for the theatrical release of films stating that the nationwide opening day w...

Have a high regard for the Bit Players

Image
These people has an old streamer and newspaper with them during shooting and tapings, they rolled them on the floor and sleep on it during off takes. They are called the Vilma Santos or "The Bit Players" of the films and television. Every time we have shoot, I don't want to call them "extras," on the set or during our production meetings. It sounds not good to my ears and I find it degrading and disrespectful to them.  I prefer to call them "talents," they are part of our industry we need to show more respect for them and treat them equally. Plenty of the talents treat this job seriously to earn for their living and most of them are professionals (lawyers, teachers, business executives) at work. They need additional income to support their families and other white-collar pro just wanted to experience shootings and see our talented actors in person. I always show high respect for them the way their colleagues respect them in their respective fields. ...
