I think all of us would agree: Every worker or employee should be safe at work, and protected from accident and harm. Workplaces should be safe.

Let’s ask the President to sign the OSH Bill into law. #SafeWorkplacesNow

According to a PSA survey on workplace safety, the number of workers who sustained occupational injuries rose from 49,118 in 2013 to 50,961 in 2015.

Injuries range from minor ones like bruises or cuts to major ones like losing a finger or a limb — and death.

#SafeWorkplacesNow
Workers say injuries are often not reported or not recorded: Bawal magreklamo o magleave kahit naaksidente na. And labor-contracting agencies aim for a “zero accidents” record to get a bonus.

When I worked in an agency, it was usual to hear folks to say they’re sick and tired of the daily grind. And that they look for something new to do, something less about self and more about others.
And so they ask or look around for non-profits and advocacy groups to volunteer for. Others form new ones together with their best buds. Amazing acts of kindness and civic duties. Some go to cancer wards. Others go to indigenous peoples.
There was also a time when entire offices were engrossed with relief operations, post-disaster. Complete with marketing 360 efforts to drum up public interest.

Starting October 1, I will compile names and workplaces of those who verbally threaten me or use hate speech against me. I will write their employers, complete with screencaps of their threats, irresponsible and abusive statements.
Depending on the situation, I will inquire with my lawyers if civil or criminal suits could be filed, and demand moral and actual damages.
It might be difficult, but we have to start sometime and somewhere to demand and win accountability. I have thought about this and my previous attempts to fight fire with fire. I figured accountability is our strongest argument vs. threats and hate.

Today in Duterteland:

Ahead of #NeverAgain rally, regime orders lockdown of Luneta, named after freedom fighter Rizal.

Country’s largest freedom park closed to squeeze and harass the United People’s Action rally.

Millions wasted for unnecessary police presence.
Unlike last year, several jeepney routes were also shut down in an apparent PNP effort to pit commuters and motorists against the rallyists.

PNP also stopped, delayed and harassed protesters from Bicol.

Duterte is so afraid of protests.

#NeverAgain
Motorists and commuters sympathize with the United People’s Action. They are outraged by Duterte’s imposition of higher taxes, higher fares and higher fuel prices — issues raised by protesters against the regime.

Remember Ilonggo protests at a Duterte event and how they foiled a Marcos party in their city?

Remember Lumads who resist Duterte’s bloody sellout of their land?

Remember Moros furious over Duterte’s destruction of Marawi?

Our kababayans in Visayas & Mindanao can’t be fooled.
Remember the protests in Aklan over the dictatorial closure of Boracay?

Remember how Cebuanos stand up to tyrannical orders from Manila regarding EJKs?

Our kababayans in Visayas and Mindanao are a part of our movement against tyranny and dictatorship.
Those who poked fun at our kababayans in Visayas and Mindanao — especially how they speak — should apologize.

What they did is irresponsible, demeaning, and not helpful to fostering national unity against our common enemy: Duterte and his evil regime.

I used to “edit” other people’s names which I thought were spelled the wrong way. Names with an extra “h” after the first letter, names obviously misspelled.

But as I knew more, met more people, went places, I discovered it was really a bad idea.

We just can’t “edit” names.
I was just doing the editing in my mind. I used to ask “why do they have such misspelled names?”.

I would discover how parents would pick names for their kids. How they add their names, names of fri NDs, their experiences, and other magical stuff until they make a final choice.
I would get to meet friends from other places who find our names rather odd too, even the “properly spelled” ones. I’d be able to get to other places and discover a whole different way of naming people. A different take on spellings.

Reminder: Whether you support the president or not, inflation is real. You’d feel it sa palengke, grocery, pamasahe.

There is no special reduced inflation rate if you’re DDS and refuse to believe.
The “best president in the solar system” owns this “achievement” of causing the highest inflation rate in 9 years. This was caused mainly by the Dutertax TRAIN.

Tapang at malasakit: Tapang ng mukha magpataw ng buwis sa taumbayan, malasakit para sa lalong yumaman na oligarchs.
Dutertenomics mainly benefit the burgesya komprador and malalaking panginoong maylupa:

• Personal income tax cuts under TRAIN
• TRAIN burden passes on to consumers
• Endo pa rin
• No land reform
• Rice cartel and smugglers hayahay
• Corporate income tax cuts under TRAIN2
