Re: A Kabaleyan’s Thoughts…

Mas marakep anganko no inkorit iya ed Pangasinan, anto?

F. Sionil Jose is aware of the demise of other Philippine languages. His prediction will certainly come true if, we, Pangasinenses will not act now.

Speaking of the magazine Silew, the Ulupan na Pansiansia’y Salitan Pangasinan revived it as Balon Silew a few years ago. This is probably the only venue for would-be writers and authors writing in Pangasinan language today. Yes, we still have few writers who picked up the cudgels for Pangasinan literature.

Alexander Ynzon,

Thanks for the enlightenment about your industry. I thought the reason drugs are expensive in the USA was because of the favorable business climate of drug manufacturers here, especially in my homestate of NJ where majority of them are based. I know lots of our kabaleyans are working in manufacturing drugs here, and they pray for status quo daily. Since the cheap subsidized medication of Canada had made them worried because of news coming from Illinois. The state of Illinois, according to the news, is buying drugs from Canada. So I am glad it isn’t because of government price manipulation but because of the quality that drives USA customers. It makes quality practitioners like me tickled and Deming proud.

Re: Business Log

Miss Eva… thank you for the info about the Aquarium Resto. As a resident in another country, we always talk about places to visit where we can eat. This one here sounds a very interesting place to visit. As a person who loves sea creatures, this is one place I must visit. The Monterey aquarium which is not far from here is full of beautiful, colorful sea creatures.

Re: Punchline

Thank you, Mr. Ermin Garcia, for the nice column about the good commissioner of human rights, Atty. Wilhelm D. Soriano.

Yes indeed, he makes us proud. He is a man of honesty and integrity. Someone whom you can approach and talk to.

What went wrong and where do we go from here? 5 years ago, a few thousands gathered in EDSA to decide what they deemed was the best for the rest of the 80 million Filipinos. They claimed, the corrupt and incompetent college dropout Joseph Estrada, didn’t deserve a day longer in Malacanang and must be driven out. They claimed, Gloria Arroyo was the nation’s answer to the country’s woes. I recall the only woe we had then was the revelation of Chavit Singson that of Joseph Estrada being the king and lord of jueteng raking in millions by the truckloads. I remember we did not have fertilizer scam, election Garci scam nor did we have the most expensive boulevard in the universe planted in our country. To the best of my recollection, the incompetent Joseph Estrada had the Abu Sayyafs and MILF’s on the run and about to reach the end of their line in the vast Sulu seas. Today, we are talking peace with the MILF and about to give them part of Mindanao they want for themselves. Camp Abubakar and other camps for which many of our soldiers died retaking is back to the MILF’s courtesy of an illegitimate leader. Human rights violations were not an issue then unlike today. No one dares to question the leadership or else they might be the next victims. Why not just close the Philippine Military Academy? After all, most of today’s government agencies are managed by former generals from this institution? What is this academy producing? Liars? Human rights violators? Corrupt and incompetents? These military and police officers who are abusing citizens must all be made to account for their misdeeds. It may not happen while this regime is in power but someday it will happen.

Jose Ceralde,

Thailand Pharmacy Internet Drug Stores on line are famous for selling fake medicines manufactured from China and Manila is having the same problem right now from independent Pharmacy stores or sometimes the Physicians are selling it according to the news. This is the reason why Japan don’t buy medicines from Thailand or Manila even do they are much cheaper than USA. I can buy Propecia by Merck, USA from Manila at 30% cheaper than what I pay here in USA, but my customers in Japan want the Propecia from USA even they have to pay higher price.
