NYU alumna details how LP's grand plan will backfire them down: "Aquino name will do more harm than good"


Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino | VP Leni Robredo | Sen. Antonio Trillanes 


If the grand plan of the Yellows is to turn to the name of the Aquinos as a means to save the Liberal Party (LP) in a last ditch effort then it will surely backfire.

This is the sentiment of social media influencer Krizette Laureta Chu when she detailed how the LP is on a losing end as more and more of its prominent members successively fail to rake in new supporters, contrary to what they hoped to achieve.

With Vice President Leni Robredo as their Opposition Leader, Chu opines that the constant mocking of the Vice President’s competence (or lack thereof) has led to a “wakeup call” for the Yellow political party to find a different means (or different person) to bring into the scene.


When the Yellow political party turned to Senator Antonio Trillanes IV, he had resorted to creating a fuss about threats on his life by rounding up more security forces around him which, unfortunately, backfired badly as the Philippine National Police (PNP) and Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) merely ignored his requests.

And now, they turn to, as Chu calls it, “last card” by summoning former President Benigno Aquino III into the active political scene to, hopefully, taint the current administration’s name and bring back the public trust onto the Yellow camp.

But, Chu explains, this is unlikely as Aquino’s long list of controversy could easily hold the Yellow political party back. From pilfered Yolanda donations, the controversy on the 44 Special Action Force (SAF) from PNP, the Dengvaxia anti-dengue vaccination sham, and the widely known Manila hostage crisis.

All these botches in his track record makes Chu certain that using Aquino as their last card will only end up doing “more harm than good”, thus resulting to not only lesser members on board LP, but even lesser public trust and a negative public image.


Chu’s full post on Facebook reads:

Nag iingay na si Noynoy Aquino.

Nilabas na ng LIBERAL PARTY ang kanilang pinaka huling baraha.

They are banking on the Aquino name, not knowing it will do more harm than good. Not with Noy's history of Yolanda, SAF, HO hostage, Dengvaxia, the China dealings of Trillanes they both wouldnt answer to.


Typhoon Yolanda | The Fallen 44 | Dengvaxia vaccine | West Philippine Sea 


Leni calling herself the Opposition leader, and being mocked for her incompetence, and then seeing that nobody is scrambling to join their party, has been a wakeup call that she cannot be the unifier they need.

Trillanes complaining that he had no security detail therefore his life was in danger--and not getting the reaction they wanted--was another wakeup call.

This is the beginning of the absolute end. They've crossed the rubicon, spiraling downward, and there is no turning back.

There is no Yellow-er guy than Noynoy Aquino, and this is their last shot.

The air, it's oh so redolent of desperation.

‘Worst yet to come’

Malacañang on Wednesday agreed with the assessment of the World Health Organization (WHO) that the worst of the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic “is yet to come.” Palace spokesman Harry Roque Jr. said Duterte consulted with health experts because he believed that the threats posed by the Covid-19 pandemic were far from over. “We take seriously the remarks of World Health Organization Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus that the ‘worst of the coronavirus 2019 is yet to come.’ We further agree with the WHO chief’s assertion that ‘it’s a virus that many people still don’t understand,’” Roque said. “It is for this reason that President Duterte has been in consultation with experts across different sectors on how to best address the Covid-19 situation in the country,” he added. On Monday, Duterte consulted with different health experts in Malacañang to help him decide if the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) sh...

DOST-ITDI develops 3D printed respirators and ventilator parts

The Department of Science and Technology-Industrial Technology Development Institute (DOST-ITDI) has developed a 3D printed respirator venturi valves for the use in treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. In a Facebook post on Wednesday, the DOST-ITDI said it has delivered last April 14 the two prototypes of 3D printed respirator venturi valves to the National Children’s Hospital in Quezon City. The department said there are 3D printed prototypes of parts of the Multiple Patient Ventilator Splitter and Mechanic Ventilator-Mini-War-Zone that were also made. Currently, there are five hospitals in Metro Manila that are waiting for their prototypes of ventilator parts, it added. This project is an initiative of DOST-ITDI Director Dr. Annabelle V. Briones and Materials Science Division Chief Dr. Blessie A. Basilia who is also Multiple Materials Platform for Additive Manufacturing Project (MATDEV) Team Leader.

Sunlight destroys coronavirus quickly, says US agency

© MANDEL NGAN  US President Donald Trump listens to Department of Homeland Security Under Secretary for Science and Technology William Bryan speak during the daily briefing on the novel coronavirus The new coronavirus is quickly destroyed by sunlight, according to a new study announced by a senior US official on Thursday, offering hope that its spread may ease over the summer. William Bryan, science and technology advisor to the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, told reporters at the White House that government scientists had found ultraviolet rays had a potent impact. "Our most striking observation to date is the powerful effect that solar light appears to have on killing the virus, both surfaces and in the air," he said. "We've seen a similar effect with both temperature and humidity as well, where increasing the temperature and humidity or both is generally less favorable to the virus." He then showed a slide summarizing...
