Duterte has
arrived at the scene, clean and free of options. He has so far towed a neutral
line between politics and economics with economics take a stronger precedent.
Duterte has the same choice as Aquino, American and Japanese weapons to go to
war, or economic aids, finance and development to rebuild the Philippines, to
go for higher economic growth to benefit the people of the Philippines and the
country. China has the cash and the knowhow and the big market to drive the
Filipino economy to greater height, to rebuild a new infrastructure that is
badly needed, to link up the country with highways and super trains.
The politics
of the South China Sea cannot be resolved in the foreseeable future and is best
to go to the negotiating table while the two countries build on improving
economic ties and cooperation to improve the lives of the Pinoys. Or would
politics still be the dominant force in Filipino politics at the expense of
economics? China could pour in billions into the Pinoy economy and only good
can come out of it.
On the
contrary, Duterte can join the American and Japanese alliance that could lead
to nought but the possibility of warfare that the Pinoys would pay dearly. The
Americans and the Japanese are broke and can only offer the rejects of their
military arsenal, the mothball hardware or hardware destined for the museum to
the Pinoys. Would these be good enough, would these improve the lives of the Pinoys and their economy?
At stake is
the modernization of the Philippines, the rebuilding of a whole country to
become a jewel in Asean. Which way would Duterte choose? He is new and has the
liberty to choose with the mandate as the new President of the Philippines. His
victory is testimony to what the ordinary Pinoys want, a better life, a
peaceful life, not war and political rhetoric and libido.
/// Duterte has the same choice as Aquino, American and Japanese weapons to go to war, or (China's) economic aids, finance and development to rebuild the Philippines, to go for higher economic growth to benefit the people of the Philippines and the country. ///
ReplyDeleteIs Duterte facing a similar choice as our Bukit Bastard voters?
But are the Bukit Bastards slaves?
Very cheaply sell themselves out for only $1.4 million dollars worth of aid from a part time politician?
Will Duterte also settle for only $1.4 million dollars worth of aid?
So under President Duterte, less Pinoys will come here to take over the jobs of Sinkies?
ReplyDeleteIf so, good for Sinkies lah. More Sinkies can become nurses and health care professionals in our hospitals.

Indonesian President Jokowi bans maids from working overseas.
ReplyDeleteWill President Duterte also ban maids from working overseas?
So are Sinkies willing to be maids if no foreign maids come here to work?
Will Sinkies need to pay $2000 per month for a live out Sinkie maid?
What do you think? Or what do you think PAP will do?
Good idea.
ReplyDeleteI think Duterte should ban all Filipinos from working in Singapore.
Duterte should punish Singaporeans.
ReplyDeleteAnswers to anonymous @10.29 am:
Will President Duterte also ban maids from working overseas?......most likely YES!
So are Sinkies willing to be maids if no foreign maids come here to work?......YES!
Will Sinkies need to pay $2000 per month for a live out Sinkie maid?.......YES!
What do you think? Or what do you think PAP will do?......Increase the population to 10M so that we have enough local maids!

ReplyDeleteDo Dirty should ban all Pinoys/Pinays from workng in Singapore.
Yes, punish Singapore as the Ah Nehs, the Nerds, the Chow Ang Mohs cannot hug the cheap perfume smelling performing artists cum prostitutes with thighs like elephants.
Wonder why they throw their ill gotten gains on these possies which our grandmas looks better than them.??
And they can scavenged their garbage for food.
Ban them Diuretics.
At least the pinoys have their own identity and plenty of space to play their cards.
ReplyDeleteConsider what this other leader trying to incubate or experiment in his little garden
“If you are in Singapore as a Christian hippopotamus, you do not treat this as a Christian hippopotamus nation. If you are in Singapore as a Buddhist snakes, this is not a Buddhist snake pit, even though the Buddhist may be one of the biggest snakes groups in Singapore. If you are a Muslim gorillas in Singapore, you can practice your swinging, you can fuck, you have branches, but you understand that this is a zoological society, and you are working and living within a zoo-logical context,” he said.
The Prime Minister added that this kill-and-take among different animals, as well as the trust that their cages are their homes, which were built and designed by a zoo keeper who has since gone to the grave. The process has contributed to a gradually emerging zoo-logical brick and mortar Babel identity.

President Duterte is far pragmatic that the out going president. He does not want to be used by Obama as a foot soldier to confront China. China ignores Hague completely. Hague is weak to use ocean laws to judge on land sovereignty. The judgement will be out in late June or July.
ReplyDeleteAmong the Hague judges, one of them is a pinoy judge. China knew the possible judgement. It makes others to wander, the whole thing is a drama.
Thereafter, what does Duterte gonna do?
Duterte will get better hearing for philippines claims. China is said to start a similar tribunal in Shanghai to deal with such territorial claims. If Singapore, Malaysia want to claim against some reefs near their water against China, that might be a better place to go than going to the ang mor Hague in future.

ReplyDeleteAmazon river tribal people are far more resilient. Duterte is not living in the wild. But he was said to be executing criminals similar to people living in the wild: base on their best own judgement, no courts or judges are needed.
Duterte does not look like small white face out going one. Duterte looks like people in construction for life time.
I got the feel that he is clean, not taking money under table type, and not like someone who grabbed Nobel Peace prize but starting war here and there for his 8 years term.

Empirically, just take a look at simple upgrading/ painting projects at housing estate and in the construction industry
The draft and rough parts of the work that just simply need manual and brute labour such as the main painting often done by ah Neh
But the fine tuning and refinement like touching up of the corners, painting of pipes etc the sub con usually get non-ah Neh to complete the work.
Touch up painting is no rocket science but the sub con boss often dun delegate and relegate such works to ah Neh
Why?
If they are not seen able to touch up properly even in simple painting works, can they be expected and able to perform exquisite and complex stuff in other sectors well?
But if they have already "infiltrated and penetrated" many sectors, what could be the likely outcome?

If the contract were to be done by Starhub, long time ago already completed.
Four or five engineering IT specialists from india doing the cabling and installation.
Thinks very most five to six units per day in a block of nicely laid out flats.
And one or two in those prewar or bungalow houses.
They came with their colourful purple uniforms with cables and cable lugs. Laid them on the void decks or next to the units they supposed to install.
Or at the side road next to those houses.
Next they laid themselves asleep on the cables and the materials they supposed to install.
Morning,afternoon siesta.
If a stray dog were to block their view in looking at the clock hanging at nearby coffee shop, he will simply shift the ball of the dog that obstructs his view.

Between 2001 to 2015, if what Botak and Co had to show for in sinkieland's economy were vice-related trades and industries and predominantly casino-driven temporary unsustainable artificial GDP growth through asset inflation aka property bubble, sinkieland and thus sinkies indeed do not have any ( bright ) future in the medium run
ReplyDeleteIn basic economics, technological progress plays an important role in long run economic growth observed in stylised empirical evidences in advanced economies over the past 60 years
Over the past 15 years between 2001 to 2015, what kind of technological progress has casino driven, real estate bubble sector and construction industries brought about to the capabilities of sinkieland's economy?
15 long years or 1.5 decades just evaporated in current global climate without much to show for?
After at least 15 years or 1.5 decades of technological stagnation and if add in woody the cha tao pecker's period is at least another 10 years which is altogether 25 years or 2.5 decades of almost no technology, stagnation period
Like that how long more or how much is left ( if any ) of the economic foundation built by GKS to be squandered by Botak and Co?
Almost USD 1 billion in 2014 to "pay for" a useless "title" of best global FM?
If best global FM "title" is worth its "weight", why sinkieland's economy is tanking and need to be "salvaged" JUST one short year after this "silly title" was awarded by the recipient body of this sinkies tax-payer originated amount of USD 1 billion?
Since sinkieland's NODX is nosediving, is it possible to "export" Botak to "Do-The-Take" fleaLEEpeans for the same value of US$ 1 billion to "help" do-the-take off or take down in their economy?
How much do you think "Do-The-Take" will offer?
Mb 1 million peso oso "Do-The-Take" think is "NOT WORTH"?
What do you think?
Mb can offer ( Botak's service ) back to Laggarde ( in exchange ) for USD 1 billion see whether she meant what she said that he was the best global FM ( in 2014 )?
So now the ball in "Do-The-Take" court, will he even consider Botak's service ( if available )?
GKS, after his retirement, advised Deng Xiao Ping and his successor Jiang Zhe Ming till the late 1990s for China's economic reform so if Botak worth his salt can at least advise a much smaller economy but mb they oso dunwan?
Frankly, economic growth using vice-related and real estate bubble related are arguably most "short-termist", "one-time off" and unsustainable
ReplyDeleteThe injection into an economy of building say a condo is basically just that, one time off
But say if the money used in building 10 condos is injected into say a technology venture like Apple or Samsung, then the returns from such injection into the economy is not once-off but recurring over a long period of time
From the first ipod, iPhone and iPad as far back as the early 2000s till now, Apple is still going strong and now the whole world market and thus 7 billion consumers are longing and awaiting eagerly and impatiently to get hold of the next iPhone release ( iPhone 7 etc )
That’s not all
The whole world will probably be using iPhone 8, 9 etc by the 2020s and other technology gadgets by Apple as well
Likewise for Samsung for their Notes, S and Galaxy series. ..... as well as their tablets devices
If one looks at the sinkieland's next 20 to 30 years economic blueprints and Roadmaps, it is more of the same of this one time off, low quality, no or minimal technology build, build, build model
What redevelop paya lebar area?
Again build, build, build and tear and build model
Same for tanjong pagar port redevelopment plan
Same for tengah airbase
After 50 years now then say got University incubator for new startups as if this is a big deal and a brand new thing when many countries have such systems and tie up even before sinkieland attained self rule in 1959?
The past 25 years since 1990 from woody the pecker's time have been mostly wasted?
Can sinkieland ever catch up?
With the current team of many deadwoods and useless but overpaid generalissimos, the probability would be quite low?
Also the many so called economics trained like woody, East wah Lang, botak are mostly learners of old models that no longer sparkle in the new economy
On the other hand, many learners of the new models are arguably rote learners who are content to live off the fruits achieved by earlier generations
So where does sinkieland go from now onwards?
Probably nowhere if lucky, otherwise likely another 10 years back to equalise its actual natural level of economic output?
Some may not agree this is the case but then if it is not, who ( really ) thinks sinkieland's economy is going places?
Pls KEE CHIU!
KEE CHIU!

ReplyDelete>>> ...... Now the engineer to this coming fiasco would have to hold the fort and take responsibility for the failure. <<<
It would be an oncoming fiasco if "the economic engineer" fails to recalibrate the resources in sinkieland's economy?
How would one know whether sinkieland's economy is maxed out or otherwise?
Whoever said that probably is not trained in economics and given such view or opinion by whoever who passed such "judgement" of sinkieland's economy to him?
Many assumptions are presumably made ( by whoever giving economic advices ) under the circumstances to pass such "judgement" on sinkieland's economy?
Foremost, the "economic advisor(s)" assumed that:
(1) The current economic settings or allocation of resources are at its optimum or most efficient level?
Now, this could be the one of the "wildest" assumptions ( "if not the wildest" ) made on sinkieland's economy?
No?
Empirical stylised facts of developed economies going back past 100 years might cast some lights on the future path that sinkieland's economy can continue to grow sustainably for many years to come?
Now, let's see what the CFE now chaired by "East Wah Lang" and "deputised" by ...... ahem ...... "Mr Chicken Rice" would come out with by end 2016 and sinkies would have a glimpse into the "economic future" whether sinkieland's economy is on the right track and will be on the right track?
Dun worry Uncle RB, Co and fellow folks?
If they ( "Mr Chicken Rice" etc ) are "perceived" to be on the "wrong track" in "some or the crucial critical areas", rest assured "a full and comprehensive rebuttals and/ or alternatives" would be posted as soon as the rooster crows or the sun rises ( whichever comes first ) regardless of the opinion of one woody the cha tao from his GE 2015 comment about the sun and rooster or was it the drivers and co-drivers?
Meanwhile, the clock is ticking and some sinkies might be maciam ants on a hot pan, anxious and worried sick about their investments etc?
Between now and end 2016, some "exogenous" events ( externally? ) might precipitate so what best thing to do than be extra, ultra "VIGILANT" in the meantime?
At uncertain times when risks are much elevated than normal, it doesn’t harm to be more or extra cautious, does it?
