Pinoys, feel at home with the latest in messengers! free!

Yehey Tol

Its a new instant messaging software that allows you to communicate to other people in other parts of the world using yehey tol or yahoo messenger. It was created for Filipinos by Filipinos. This is supposed to make Pinoys abroad feel more at home because of the pinoy themes like the nice and simple, PS Bank theme, Simple lang.

It has pinoy avatars, has unique names for avatars and a unique buzz sound. In yahoo messenger, the buzz is "Buzz", but here, it is "pssst huy!" so Filipino, right?

Soon, they will release their latest version, the one with the webcam driven 3d avatars, in which, even yahoo doesn't have yet. You may ask why they created this webcam driven 3d avatars when its better to see face to face. I think, the answer to that is, some people are shy to use the webcam and they want to express their feelings thru facial expressions. this is their purpose,i think.

by the way, for some who doesn't know what webcam driven 3d avatars is, iv'e read from their FAQ that, its like using a webcam, but having a mask on. when you wink, the character winks, make sad face, the character looks sad and etc.. from what i read, thats what i understood.

so, im pretty excited now to use that latest technology.

Violence may erupt if Erap is convicted or vice versa.

Convicted?

Former Philippine president, Joseph Ejercito "Erap" Estrada's fans and supporters might plan a widespread rioting or looting according to Maj. Gen. Ben Mohammad Dolorfino, chief of the AFP National Capital Region Command, said the military is preparing for a situation similar to the May 1, 2001, siege of the presidential palace by Estrada supporters.

Acquitted?

Also, "[An acquittal] will also cause mass action, although it will vary in magnitude. If [Estrada] is found guilty, it is expected that the mass action will be bigger," he said.

So, whatever side you are on, Pro, Anti or Neutral, AFP is making sure that peace and order will prevail. but we can't help but think that, of course, PNP/AFP will be on the government side. unless, there will be a coup plot against the administration, again...

Philippines on red alert status

The Philippine National Police on Tuesday placed all units in six regions in Mindanao on full alert because of ongoing operations in Sulu and Basilan.

Police have likewise been placed units on heightened alert in the rest of Luzon and the Visayas for the same reasons.

The country’s police force was also placed on alert in the National Capital Region because of the ongoing 39th ASEAN Economic Ministers' summit in Makati City.

The PNP earlier said its forces nationwide were on red alert amid intensified fighting between the military and al Qaeda-linked Abu Sayyaf extremists in Mindanao.

Chief Superintendent Samuel Pagdilao Jr., PNP spokesman, said the country's police force was placed on alert after the New People's Army declared that it is renewing offensives against the government.

The full alert status was declared after President Arroyo's meeting with the security cluster of her Cabinet in Malacañang.

During the meeting, Mrs. Arroyo ordered the police and the military to work with local government units in strengthening the government's campaign against terrorism.

Are you sure the red alert status concerns the bombing? No hidden agendas? because i was thinking, there might be something else other than the protection and police visibility in the metro.

Almost all officials/politicians are power hungry. or just hungry for anything? power...gold...attention... name it...

although not all. most of them i believe are like that.

This Red Alert status will give them the chance to use and abuse powers. Some of us know our rights, but, not all. thats where the abuse parts goes in. they will intimidate you and if you get scared firsts even without doing anything wrong, they can extort money from you, or frame you up -> worst case scenario


anyway, for Philippine Political news, go to Votester.com.ph because there, its all about politics, whats happening in the Philippines, especially in NCR.

Mayor Lim: Dirty Harry Strikes again!

Honestly, I really admire how the new Manila Mayor works. If you notice, not all politicians are like like him. Most of them, do illegal (not in a bad way, like illegal bar and restos along baywalk.) to win the hearts of some of the citizens who benefit from it.

These are the kinds of politicians we need in the Philippines. Another example is Bayani Fernando, whom, doesn't care if he gets the vote of those squatters he evicted, which, in the first place, they really don't own.

Whats different from Mayor Lim is, he doesn't care if he clashes with high ranking, big celebrities or huge tycoons. to him, whats right is right and wrong, well, it doesn't matter how much money, name and connection you have, is still wrong.

Baywalk project, started by former Mayor Atienza, is currently being demolished because according to Lim, it appeared that the owners were delinquent in paying their rentals and operated without securing building permits.

Philippine Political News

MCH City Engineering Office chief Armand Andres said the City Building Office issued a notice to the establishment owners two weeks ago. “But instead of waiting for MCH workers to remove the structures, they dismantled their restaurants themselves.”

He said the 200-meter row of restaurants and entertainment bars, from the United States Embassy up to the Manila Yacht Club, had been cleared. The only thing the MCH has to do now is to fix some of the brick tiles that may have been displaced during the demolition of the restaurants and stages.

(This is why I said earlier that, he doesn't care whoever he faces because, whats right is right and vice versa.) As to news reports that Malacañang was reportedly disappointed over the removal of the restaurants along Baywalk, the Mayor reiterated that he was only abiding by the law.


Well, its just not building and / or operating without permits. Its destroying the serene image of the sunrise and sunset, which, Manila Bay is famous for. Also, He admitted that tenants of nearby hotels, such as the Manila Diamond Hotel and adjacent condominium units, have also complained about the din and the dancing that usually starts from 7 p.m. and lasts until 4 a.m. the following day.

Good Job Mayor Lim! Kudos to you sir!
