In July 2, 2006, I had a blog entry trying to feature about successful entrepreneurs in the Philippines. I thought we need some role models. I picked up this supposedly successful entrepreneur – where else, but on the Entrepreneur Magazine in the Philippines. Here’s an excerpt of what I wrote:
This morning, I received an email from another reader (Mr. Luneta) and gave me a link. It’s a story from the Philippine Star. It goes:
The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) launched Saturday a manhunt for the “operator” who reportedly hired the assassination team that killed a businessman outside his home almost a year ago in Manila. Special Investigator Darwin Francisco of the NBI-Special Task Force (STF) said they are looking for George Duazo, alias Toto, 31, of 8 Esteban Street, Malibay, Pasay City. He is the remaining suspect in the murder of Gil Manlapaz Sr., who was shot twice outside his house along Pedro Gil Street in Manila. On May 31, NBI operatives apprehended soft drinks wholesale dealer Anita Buce at her office warehouse in Pandacan, Manila for being the alleged mastermind in the Manlapaz killing.
I was shocked! I can’t believed I featured somebody in my site and now is a suspect in a homicide! I was soooooo mistaken in having her as our role model!!! I regret featuring here her!
Maybe I should delete here story here?!

ngee! ala eh, bakit ba kasi mapaglaro ang buhay? hehehe
inang, pag di mo nakikita ang fez ko sa mybloglog ko, it doesn’t mean na hindi kita bisita. ganun din sa mga kapatid kong ibang diwata. kung hindi ninyo kita mukha ko sa mybloglog ninyo, hindi ibig sabihin hindi ko kayo binisita. yung cookies kasi ng mybloglog, inilagay ko lang sa jar. tapos, may nagnakaw yata, nawala yung cookies. so i’m going to find out pa who stole the cookies from the cookie jar hehehe
on second thought, mukhang gusto ko na rin maging imbisibol sandali para nasi-CIA ko kayo nang hindi ninyo nalalaman bwahahahahaha

wait! don’t delete her story. I want to read it first… baka naman media hype lang ito reynz? anybody can be a suspect. pero if it was true, I think you should make a follow up story regarding her downfall kung bakit sya nagka ganun. tipong “the rise and fall” of madame anita. This is what I call in my blog the perfect “IRONY”.

You wanted to inspire your readers when you wrote your story about Anita. Your readers did understand your point. I guess some were inspired. The thing is you cannot predict the future nor read the hearts of people. You cannot even place yourself as prosecutor or judge to a suspect.
I suggest that you leave her alone. You have the gift for writing. You can use that for topics more worthwhile.

hi jef @ bluep,
hmm… on a second thought, well, you all are right (also bea) what do i know what the future holds, di ko alam na she’s got some dark secrets.
also, mr. luneta emailed me that she’s also a landgrabber if you check his comments on the other article. now, i don’t know about this. but there are court of appeals documents on the internet that talks about some land in pandacan, i got tired of reading and honestly, i could hardly undertand them – who knows if she’s a landgrabber or not but what matters at the moment is that she’s got a lot of things to prove about her connections with the manlapaz killing.

yeah I read it after I posted the comment above, sasabihin ko sana wag na pala mong gawan ng follow up article kaya lang dehins ko na maeedit. jeff is right. you are a good writer. there’s a lot of things worth writing for aside from madame anita

Some people are really after this Evil Woman, I hope they get her soon enough…

The case against her for the Manlapaz killing was dropped even though all 3 suspects including the triggerman is pointing her as the mastermind. The news is, this woman bribed the judge handling the case for 4 million pesos…
I also heard that she’s being eyed as the suspect for torching last week the house and business establihhment of Mrs. Manlapaz… Yes, they have killed her husband and now they’ve burned her house and source of livelihood…

Grabe talaga ang hayup na Anita Buce na yan!
Pagkatapos ipapatay yung asawa ni Josie Manlapaz ipinasunog ni Anita yung paupahang bahay at tindahan ni Aling Josie.
Ngayon, pinahagisan pa ng granada ang bahay nila Aling Josie buti na lang hinde sumabog ang granada kung hinde patay lahat silang mag-iina. Napaka itim ng budhi ng hayup na babae na yan! Kala ko sa komiks lang o sa pelikula merong mga character na ganyan hinde pala, mas masahol pa pala sa totoong buhay!!!
Eto yung TV Patrol Video nung mga suspek na naghagis ng granada…buti na lang nahuli!!!

just an update, the NBI in coordination with Philippine National Police-PACER already arrested George Duazo @ TOTO last December 27, 2008 in Silang, Cavite and was presently detained at the Manila City Jail. Last May 2009, Mr. Duazo executed his extra-judicial confession before this Agent and narrated what he knew and who masterminded the killing of GIL MANLAPAZ, together with the earlier confessions given by the triggerman and two look-outs. A new case of MURDER was filed at the Department of Justice (DOJ) against Anita Buce. LET JUSTICE TAKE IT’S COURSE!!!

Sir Darwin,
Maraming salamat sa update. Sa wakas nahuli rin si Duazo, sya lang ang makakapagpapatunay na ang BERDUGO ng Pandacan ang mastermind ng Gil Manlapaz murder.
Imbistigahan nyo rin ang mga Manila prosecutors/judges na nasa bulsa ni Anita Buce, talamak po dyan sa RTC at MTC ang pagka kurap ng judges partikular na ang mga prosecutor, HAWAK ni Anita Buce lahat yang mga yan…Swelduhan nya lahat yang mga yan…ipagtanong nyo lang po sa mga clerk of court kung ano modus operandi ni Anita Buce dyan sa RTC at MTC sasabihin nila sa yo ang lahat ng nalalaman nila.
Bakit Berdugo ng Pandacan?
Meron ding pinapatay na Manila prosecutor yang si Anita Buce na hinde nya nabili…Sya rin ang nagpapatay sa sarili nyang asawa na si Rogelio Buce..pagkatapos nun meron syang naging kabit na married manager ng bangko, pinapatay nya rin yung asawa nung kabit nya dahil iniskandalo sya…
Panahon na para makulong yang BERDUGO ng Pandacan….
