LP event in Marikina, a premature campaigning says election lawyer

LP event in Marikina

Atty. Glenn Chong who bravely defends the fight against Smartmatic and Commission on Election’s intended glitch issues on the previous 2016 election is now hitting the LP or what they call as Lapian “ng mga kadiring” Politiko- a label invented for Liberal Party.

According to Chong’s post, political personalities from LP have filed candidacy which made them as senatorial candidates for 2019. However, it strictly mandated in the law that the campaign shall start on February next year.

Marikina event

A program initiated by the Liberal Party was held today in Marikina. For Chong, it is clearly a move for an early campaign as candidates were presented and each was given a chance to speak on the event as if introducing their platform. The 8 senatorial aspirants to bring the opposition slate are Mar Roxas, Gary Alejano of Magdalo, Erin Tanada, Samira Gutoc-Tamawis, Jose Manuel Diokno who is a human rights lawyer, Bam Aquino, Romulo Macalintal, and Florin Hilbay.

Former President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III attends the event as well.

Not an election offense

Atty Glenn Chong

Though not an election offense, representative Chong says that James Jimenez of Comelec despise the early campaign of the said politicians, saying,

“Kadiri kayo.”

Netizens, on the other hand, despise such action from the Liberal Party. One even says that despite working hard for the campaign, the party candidates won’t win any Senate seat in any way. They were tagged as lawbreaker for not following the mandatory election period as stated in the law. And even called as “atat” and shameless for doing a premature campaign.

Netizen’s take on premature LP campaign

Netizens call out COMELEC to do something about the agenda and as well to prove that there is no exemption to the rules. LP’s event backfires at them as netizens claim superiority from their end in case something unacceptable is done but anything at fault seen on present administration, they gravely criticize the latter as if it does nothing good to people.

LAPIAN "NG MGA KADIRING" POLITIKO

Nagfile na ang mga kandidato ng LP ng kanilang COC kaya maituturing na silang mga kandidato. Pero ang opisyal na simula ng kampanya ay sa Pebrero 2019 pa.

Ang ginawa ng LP ngayong araw sa Marikina ay maituturing na maagang pangangampanya. Kahit hindi na ito labag sa batas at hindi na rin election offense, ito ay "kadiri" pa rin ayon kay James Jimenez ng Comelec. I agree!

Hindi na talaga natatablan ng hiya ang mga kasapi ng Lapian "ng mga kadiring" Politiko (LP)!

Digital footprints lead NBI to Silawan’s ‘killer’

Photo from Sunstar THE application of the open source intelligence (OSINT) tool on Christine Lee Silawan’s Facebook account helped the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) 7 agents identify the primary suspect behind the girl’s gruesome murder. OSINT is the data collected from publicly available sources to be used in an intelligence context and these include social media networking sites like Facebook. The NBI-Cybercrime Division assisted the NBI 7 agents in tracing the social media user. NBI 7 agents, who used the tool, learned that the 17-year-old primary suspect John (not his real name) had been communicating with Silawan through Facebook messenger. Silawan often tagged John’s Facebook account and she was a follower of his account. The agents then subjected the Facebook account to technical surveillance and examination. John admitted he had a relationship with the victim, but it ended last Feb. 28. Agents took screenshots of the victim’s Fac...

Boracay resort demolished to clear no-build zone – DENR

Photo from CNN Philippines Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, March 20) — The government has demolished a resort on Boracay Island as part of efforts to rehabilitate and ensure the cleanliness of the world-famous destination, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) said Wednesday. The Boracay Inter-Agency Task Force on Tuesday destroyed structures of the Boracay Plaza Beach Resort, located at Station 1 on the island, DENR said in a press statement. The resort was among the 10 non-compliant establishments that the government warned last month to self-demolish within two weeks because they were within the 30-meter easement zone. Since the island's rehabilitation began in April 2018, the no-build zone on Boracay has been extended to 30 meters from the shoreline. "All 10 establishments, including Boracay Plaza, were the last remaining structures along the White Beach to be demolished, making the area fully compliant to the 30-meter beach easement...

Why Ms. MOCHA and Gov. Imee Marcos included in Middle East Delegation - Mike Acebedo Lopez just BURNED Rappler

Well, Rappler, if you had a wider following that is integral to the job of informing and keeping Filipinos abreast, you'd probably be invited, too, just like MOCHA USON (who is, by the way, also a government official by virtue of her appointment to the MTRCB). Alas, you do not, the glorified blog that you are--a blog with a stable of bloggers who, lumped together, can't even come close to one Margaux Uson's following and engagement, and whose only affirmation as individuals is the Facebook verified account "blue check," a testament not so much of public acceptance but of something that has become a truism of sorts, "it's not what you know, it's who you know." As to Imee, she is an elected government official, isn't she? You gotta problem with that? Take it up with the Ilocanos who voted her into office. Holy Week na, malisyoso at intrigero pa rin kayo!
