So sabi nga sa investigation, Arejola gave the retired police official 45,000 euros (about $57,000 or P2.9 million) to buy a pricey watch for him (Arejola) in Vienna, where a dealer was waiting for the payment. Charing!!! Really?!
Dahil nga I have special relations/connections (nephews) sa PMA, I get nervous whenever former PMA’ers hit the headlines in the country for reasons which are not good. Dyuskoo! Pero unsa man ni! Kulba nako lagi uy!!! I’d be uber-embarassed pati kaluluwa ko itatago ko and I hope none of these happens to them. I mean, com’on now, really! Kelan ba naging tanga ang mga PMA’ers?! Kelan??? Hindi ko talaga matanggap yan ever. Kaya, even though my fellow bloggers were blogging the big joke of all times, nakatutuk naman ako sa Euro investigations and for once, I commend some excellent questioning by Loren Legarda, irrelevant kung me mangyari sa mga Senate investigations na to mga kunichiwa. You don?t need to throw some mind boggling questions, some high-flying ones. Simple lang. Pero swak. Like this one:
?I?m asking you to clarify that. It?s totally unbelievable that you would not know that there is a requirement for you to declare that you have $10,000 or more in your possession upon exit from this country and upon entry into a foreign country.?
As I sat on my computer, reading about the uber fancy Euro-Generals with their wives na merong cash in their pocketbooks no less than $20,000, I can?t help but remember all the places that I have traveled. Sandali, eto pagmamayabang ko ever. Excluding all my hada travels within Continental United States, humada na ako in places like Bogota, Colombia; Caracas, Venezuela; Montreal and Toronto, Canada; Tokyo, Japan; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Brussels, Belgium; Paris, France; London, UK; Budapest, Hungary; Prague and Pilzn, Czech Republic and of course, Sta. Lucia, Pasig. Now, I have friends like Chuva who have traveled to more places than me, like the moon.
But in all of my travels, not that I have $57,000 on hand, save your common sense, but your travel agency should tell you what the restrictions are if you are not familiar with the BSP circulars or Feds in the US. If they forget, there is a form to fill out at the immigration even before you leave. Pag nakalimutan mo pa, they give out forms during the flight handed to you by flight attendants. At kung talagang no-read-no-write ka pa, your friends who knows that you’ll be flying will give you unsolicited advice na di mo pedeng bitbitin ang mga battery operated sex toys mo noh?
Now, kaming mga Overseas Pinoys are wishing to have that much cash. Sino ba? And we OFW’s are familiar with this form. Pwede kaming mag conduct nang seminar across the country. We actually would like to check the stupid box that we have more that $100 US dollars na bitbit in our darn wallet at balikbayan box! Leche! Di ba? Sa totoo lang!
Ang sinasama nang loob ko, I don’t even have a watch! Did you noticed my pictures last October 2008?! Wala po akong Movado (clue sa pasko hahaha wag kayong mahiya! ) mga kunichiwa dahil sira na nga at wez me pambili dahil siempre uunahin ko load nang boylets ko, Ok?! Wala! At wala rin akong $57,000 Grrr! Pag Pinoy ka talaga, life’s not fair! Hmpt!

Nakaka-aliw ka talaga, Your Highness.
Akala ni De la Paz tanga tayo no? That’s what we get for letting them get away with murder of Philippine democratic insitutions.

Hindi lang naman si De la Paz,eh. Last Thursday, it was Bolante na nag-charing (borrowing your colorful chuva-chuva) sa atin. All by himself daw yung operation P728 million “abono sa boto ni Gloria Arroyo”.
Ganoon siya ka genius.

Reynz, I admire your concern for our beloved Pilipinas. Yung iba kasi nakarating lang sa ibang bansa, apathetic na. At yang mga lecheng bob-ong na yan, hindi pa makuntento sa Seiko. O kung gusto naman ng Swiss made, meron namang Swatch, hehe.

aayyyaaayy caramba siempre guguho, naiscam din yong mga turnillo, siempre gawang intsik tinipid, hindi sila sumusunod sa standard, tignan mo yang stability ng building mo, baka yong poste parang buho ng bamboo, walang laman, alam mo naman tubong lugaw kaya nga sila yumayaman. di ba nga yong eskwelahan gumuho. dito sa US palaging may earthquake retrofitting kaya maraming lumang simbahan ang nagsasarado kasi kung hindi maretrofit, hindi safe sa churchgoers. yong dati naming apartment, tinayo noong 1906, nakailang lindol na nakatayo pa rin. oh visit mo ito: http://72hours.org/

Anong klaseng utak na mayroon itong mga heneral na pulis patola. Hindi ba nila alam ang batas kung magkano lang ang pwedi nila dalhing halaga. May plastic naman na pweding gamitin kapag naubos na ang cash.Siopao bola-bola talaga ang mga tungaw na pulis na ito.
Pero teka nga muna. Napakayaman naman pala ng mga heneral na ito. Bakit pa nga ba sila nag pulis. Dapat sa mga ito ay magtayo na lang ng bangko.
Ginagawa nilang mga tanga ang Pinoy. Mabuti na lang at nandito ako sa Merica. Kundi baka maniwala pa ako sa kanila. Anong palagay nila sa akin. Nag-assylum sa kweba ng bundok at hindi nagbabasa ng radyo at nakikinig sa peryodiko.
Kapag nakalusot pa ang mga iyan at si Bolante. Maitatala na naman tayo sa Guiness book na number wan ang mga Pinoy sa pinakatangang tao na nilalang dito sa mundo kung paniwalaan natin ang mga keso de bola nila…… Haaayyyy baka magaya pa ako kay Enrile at Mirriam.
