When the same official makes unseemly comments, dismisses earnest questions and lashes out at those seeking answers, or, worse, heckles a person in grief, they become targets of citizens’ outrage. Environment Undersecretary Benny Antiporda described researchers of the University of the Philippines Marine Science Institute (UPMSI) as “bayaran” (paid hacks) for questioning the controversial dolomite “white sand” project in Manila Bay—and was promptly called out on social media and told to quit his job. Antiporda, a former tabloid publisher and ex-president of the National Press Club, also demanded an audit of the UPMSI budget, saying the Department of Environment and Natural Resources had paid it “half a billion [pesos] since 2016” for consultation. Benny Antiporda —SENATE PHOTO ‘Drama serye’ He subsequently apologized for his remarks, saying his emotions had gotten the better of him. But he brushed off calls for him to resign, saying only President Duterte could make him do so. Celine Pialago, spokesperson of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority, drew much flak from netizens for mocking the burial of the 3-month-old child of detained activist Reina Mae Nasino as mere histrionics (“drama serye sa hapon”).

  • THE MAY 2019 MID-TERM ELECTIONS: Outcomes, Process, Policy Implications
    CenPEG Political Situationer No. 07 10 July 2019 THE MAY 2019 MID-TERM ELECTIONS: Outcomes, Process, Policy Implications Introduction The May 2019 mid-term elections took place amidst the now familiar problems of compromised voting transparency and accuracy linked with the automated election system (AES). Moreover, martial law was still in place in Mindanao making it difficult for opposition candidates to campaign freely. Towards election time, the systematic red-tagging and harassment of militant opposition candidates and civil society organizations further contributed to an environment of fear and impunity. In this context, the Duterte administration’s official candidates and allies won most of the contested seats nationally and locally but how this outcome impacts on the remaining three years of the administration is open to question. This early, the partisan realignments and negotiations for key positions in both the House and the Senate and the maneuverings for the 2022 presidential elections are already in place. Such actions are bound to deepen more opportunistic behavior by political allies and families and affect the political capital of the presidency as it faces new challenges and problems in its final three years in office. The Senate Elections: “Duterte Magic?” In an electoral process marred by persistent transparency and accuracy problems embedded in the automated election system, the administration candidates and allies dominated the elections. This victory has been attributed to the so-called “Duterte magic” but a careful analysis of the winning 12 candidates for the Senate shows a more nuanced reading of the results. At best, President Duterte and the administration can claim full credit for the victory of four senators: Christopher “Bong” Go, Ronald “Bato” de la Rosa, Francis Tolentino, and Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III.

Ang tema ng Earth Day ngayong taon ay: “Doing our Fair Share to Restore the Earth.” Ayon kay Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu, malaki ang papel ng bawat Pilipino sa pagtugon sa Climate Change at iba pang environmental issues sa harap ng global health crisis. Ang bawat isa aniya ay pwedeng maging bahagi ng solusyon lalo na kung ititigil ang mga aktibidad na makakasira sa kalikasan. Ang pagtitipid sa pagkonsumo ng tubig, kuryente at maayos na pagtatapon ng basura at pagsusulong ng eco-friendly lifestyle ay kabilang sa mga maaaring gawin ng mga tao para makatulong sa pangangalaga ng kalikasan. Ang DENR ay aktibong nagsusulong ng reforestation, river at coatal cleanups at biodiversity conversation at solid waste management.
