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

The secrets of men revealed

The secrets of men revealed Men are always accused of telling lies by their girlfriends or wives. I've had a similar experience in the past so I know that this often leads to a lover's quarrel or, not to sound too melodramatic, even in the death of one or both partners. Men have a reputation of being cheaters, but evidence suggests not all of us are unfaithful to our partners. Most of us take relationships seriously—by making sure we avoid temptations. There are secrets about men that women should know in order to preserve their relationships and to have a shot at a better future together.                                                 Photo credit to Marriage.com Men Hate It When Partners Make False Accusations How many times have you been wrongly accused of doing something you didn't do? In an honest way, I will say I have been—twice, thrice, many times. It feels really bad when people put the blame on you even if you've not done anything wr

Why don't we recognize distinguished Filipino artists as National Artist when they are still alive?

I don't understand why we don't recognize some distinguished Filipino artists as National Artists when they are still alive? Sometimes we just realize the importance of honoring them after death despite having contributed a lot of their talents that have gained national and international recognitions. Are we afraid to squeeze out from the government funds to support their monthly pension, health and medical benefits? Or maybe the university and political war between the comm ittee? For instance in the Film category, we have plenty of artists who have made a significant body of work -- they are already considered icons who have done over fifty or one hundred films (many of their work have made a mark globally) and have dedicated their whole life on making films. Shouldn't we have considered Mr. Eddie Garcia for a spot here? Having done over six hundred films in seven decades is not a joke! Why haven't we nominated or lobbied him during the previous National Artist i
