Remove middlemen

The new government of President Aquino could learn something from this.

Since weeding out corruption is the order of the day for P. Noy maybe he should begin with getting rid of middlemen in terms of purchases for the government such as medical and surgical equipment for government-operated or state-run hospitals and firearms magazines and grenade launchers for military use. Without middlemen, the government can reduce cost and ensure the highest level of quality of the products without overspending and eliminating paper work.

It’s a common knowledge that corruption begins in the purchases of machines or supplies needed by a certain department. Unscrupulous employees would grant the winning bid to businessmen or corporations at the expense of the government. It’s about time P. Noy should do something about it for a “corruption-less” country.

Blog Review For A Cause

Buy a blog review for $10 and help Baby Bella for her Hernia operation


A hernia is the protrusion of an organ through the wall of the cavity that normally contains it. When a hernia is not repaired, it may become strangulated. When strangulation occurs, there is a danger that part of the intestine be caught in the hernia cutting off blood supply to the tissue. Also, when a bowel obstruction occurs, it leads to severe pain, vomiting, nausea and inability to have a bowel movement or pass gas. Although Hernia happen to boys mostly, girls can also experience it.

Run for your health, run for Pasig River

A total of 101,010 marathon runners coming from various sectors are expected to join the largest charity run to be held in October.

The event called 10.10.10 RUN FOR PASIG RIVER is part of the “Malinaw” advocacy, one of the many initiatives of the ABS-CBN Foundation to restore the Pasig River. “Malinaw” advocacy was launched last April 15 by the Kapit Bisig Para sa Ilog Pasig (another effort of the ABS-CBN Foundation) and their partners. The advocacy aims to bring back the glory of Pasig River and mobilizes various communities in action.

The event might be another glorious entry of the Philippines to the Guinness Book of World Records as thousands of runners from government offices, schools, business corporations and other sectors will merge to support the rehabilitation of Pasig River.

I’m sure even the marathon runners that I have mentioned in my previous post (the Baguio-Benguet race) will join the charity event (or social movement as organizers call it) to raise awareness and for funds to clean the river.

The clean-up drive may take time but aren’t we glad there are committed individuals and organizations who are willing to protect and preserve what is left of the once majestic river? I’m sure many of you share the same sentiments as mine. I want my children and their future children to see the Pasig River clean and sustainable.
