FARM-TO-MARKET ROAD, NASA KARAGATAN?! 🌊🚜🤣

ENGLISH:

FARM-TO-MARKET ROADS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN?!

Only in the Philippines could a farm-to-market road allegedly end up somewhere in the ocean!

Seriously, what are we transporting here — vegetables, rice, and livestock, or fish, sharks, and mermaids?

Reports and allegations suggest that the geographic coordinates of certain farm-to-market road projects under the Department of Agriculture’s proposed 2027 budget point to locations in the sea.

If proven true, this raises serious questions about project planning, transparency, and the proper use of taxpayers’ money.

WHAT’S NEXT — UNDERWATER HIGHWAYS FOR FARMERS? 

SUPREME COURT RULING SPARKS FRESH BUDGET CONTROVERSY!

Lawmakers from the Makabayan bloc are calling on the House of Representatives to recall the proposed ₱7.2-trillion 2027 General Appropriations Bill (GAB) to review and correct provisions that could potentially violate the Constitution.

The call follows a reported Supreme Court decision concerning increases in appropriations in previous national budgets and certain provisions of the 2026 budget.

According to ACT Teachers Representative Antonio Tinio, Congress must ensure that the constitutional issues identified by the Supreme Court are not repeated in the 2027 national budget.

Tinio also suggested that the Senate could make the necessary corrections if the House refuses to recall the proposed legislation.

HOUSE VS. SENATE: WILL THE 2027 BUDGET FACE DELAYS?

The House reportedly approved House Bill No. 10858 on October 12 and subsequently transmitted the proposed ₱7.2-trillion national budget to the Senate.

However, Senate Finance Committee Chairperson JV Ejercito warned that reopening the budget process in the House could delay its passage before the end of the year.

Instead, Ejercito favors resolving disagreements between the two chambers through the Bicameral Conference Committee, commonly known as BICAM.

₱7.2 TRILLION — AND EVERY PESO BELONGS TO THE FILIPINO PEOPLE!

The 2027 budget has not even been implemented, yet serious questions are already being raised about project locations, spending priorities, and accountability.

Are these simply planning errors, questionable project proposals, or warning signs of something more serious?

That is precisely why independent verification and proper investigation are necessary.

PUBLIC FUNDS ARE NOT PERSONAL PIGGY BANKS! 

Filipino taxpayers deserve real roads, functioning infrastructure, quality healthcare, better education, and government services that actually reach the people.

Not imaginary highways, questionable coordinates, or projects that exist only on paper!

OH, MY BELOVED PHILIPPINES — HOW MUCH MORE CAN WE TAKE? 

We are not asking for miracles.

We are asking for honesty, transparency, accountability, and responsible leadership.

If a road is intended to connect farms to markets, shouldn’t it actually connect farms to markets — instead of allegedly leading straight into the ocean? 

THE PEOPLE DESERVE ANSWERS, NOT EXCUSES!

WHAT DO YOU THINK, FELLOW FILIPINOS?

👉 Should Congress recall the proposed 2027 national budget for a thorough review?

👉 Or should the Senate and BICAM handle the necessary corrections?

👉 Should every questionable government project be subjected to an independent investigation before receiving public funding?

THE FLOOR IS YOURS, FILIPINO PEOPLE!

TAGALOG :


₱7.2-TRILYONG 2027 NATIONAL BUDGET, IPINAPABAWI SA KAMARA MATAPOS ANG DESISYON NG SUPREME COURT! 

FARM-TO-MARKET ROAD, NASA KARAGATAN?! 

Grabe na talaga! Dati, ang farm-to-market roads ay para madala ang mga produktong agrikultural mula bukid papunta sa palengke. Pero ngayon, may mga alegasyon na ang coordinates ng ilang proyekto ay tumuturo mismo sa dagat!

ANO ’TO, FARM-TO-MARKET O FISH-TO-MARKET ROAD? 

Kung mapatutunayan ito, seryosong usapin ito ng pagpaplano, pananagutan, at paggamit ng pera ng bayan.

SUPREME COURT RULING, NAGDULOT NG PANIBAGONG PANAWAGAN!

Nanawagan ang mga mambabatas ng Makabayan bloc na bawiin muna ng House of Representatives ang panukalang ₱7.2-trilyong 2027 General Appropriations Bill (GAB) upang masuri at maitama ang mga probisyong maaaring sumalungat sa Konstitusyon.

Kasunod ito ng iniulat na desisyon ng Supreme Court tungkol sa mga pagtaas ng appropriations sa mga nakaraang pambansang badyet.

Ayon kay ACT Teachers Rep. Antonio Tinio, mahalagang matiyak na hindi na mauulit sa 2027 budget ang mga problemang tinukoy ng Korte Suprema.

Iminungkahi rin niyang maaaring ang Senado ang gumawa ng kinakailangang pagwawasto kung hindi babawiin ng Kamara ang panukalang batas.

SENADO VS. KAMARA: MAANTALA KAYA ANG BADYET?

Naipasa na umano ng Kamara ang House Bill No. 10858 noong Oktubre 12 at naipadala sa Senado.

Samantala, nagbabala si Senate Finance Committee Chairperson JV Ejercito na maaaring maantala ang pag-apruba sa pambansang badyet kung muling bubuksan ang proseso sa Kamara.

Mas pinapaboran niyang ayusin ang mga pagkakaiba sa pamamagitan ng Bicameral Conference Committee o BICAM.

₱7.2 TRILYON ANG PINAG-UUSAPAN — PERA NG SAMBAYANANG PILIPINO!

Hindi pa man naipatutupad ang 2027 budget, may mga seryosong tanong na tungkol sa transparency, mga proyekto, at kung saan talaga mapupunta ang pondo.

Hindi dapat basta magbintang nang walang ebidensya. Pero hindi rin dapat matakot magtanong at maningil ng malinaw na paliwanag!

MAHAL KONG PILIPINAS, KAYA PA BA NATIN ITO?

Ang kailangan ng mamamayan ay mga totoong proyekto, maayos na serbisyo, at gobyernong may pananagutan — hindi mga proyektong sa papel lang maganda!

KAYO, MGA KABABAYAN, ANO ANG MAS NARARAPAT?

👉 Bawiin at suriing muli ang 2027 budget?

👉 O hayaang Senado at BICAM ang gumawa ng mga pagwawasto?

KAYO NA ANG HUMUSGA!

The Love Story of Vice President Sara Duterte and Atty. Manases “Mans” Carpio

FROM LAW SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS TO LIFETIME PARTNERS

ICYM BLOG | Love, Marriage, Family & Public Life

Behind the political headlines and public responsibilities of Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte is another chapter of her life—her relationship with husband Atty. Manases “Mans” Carpio.

Their story takes us back to their years as law students, long before Sara became Vice President of the Philippines.

Where Their Love Story Began

Bago pa naging prominenteng political figure si Sara Duterte, isa muna siyang law student na nangangarap maging abogado.

She and Mans Carpio reportedly met while studying law at San Beda College in Manila, now known as San Beda University.

Despite coming from different family backgrounds, they developed a relationship that eventually led to marriage.

Sara grew up in the politically influential Duterte family of Davao, while Mans came from a family with a background in the legal profession.

Their shared interest in law became part of the foundation of their relationship.

October 27, 2007: A Wedding to Remember

After years of courtship, Sara Duterte and Mans Carpio exchanged wedding vows on October 27, 2007.

Their wedding took place at the Santuario de San Antonio in Forbes Park, Makati.

The ceremony marked the beginning of a new chapter in their lives as husband and wife.

Three Children, One Family

Their marriage was blessed with three children, affectionately known by their unusual nicknames:

🦈 Sharky
🌊 Stingray
🐟 Stonefish

These ocean-inspired nicknames have attracted public curiosity over the years.

Beyond politics and professional responsibilities, parenthood remains an important part of their family story.

Two Lawyers, Different Public Roles

While Sara Duterte pursued a career in public service, Mans Carpio continued working in the legal profession.

Unlike his wife, who frequently appears in political headlines, Mans generally maintains a lower public profile.

Their careers illustrate how two people who began with a shared professional interest can eventually follow different paths.

Love Beyond the Political Spotlight

Being part of a high-profile political family means living under constant public attention.

However, the story of Sara Duterte and Mans Carpio also highlights the personal side of individuals who are frequently discussed in the political arena.

From their law school years to marriage and raising three children, their relationship has spanned nearly two decades.

Their story reminds us that behind public figures are personal histories, family relationships, and experiences that extend beyond their professional lives.

YOUR TURN!

Do you believe that relationships built on friendship, shared ambitions, and mutual understanding have a stronger foundation?

What do you think is the secret to a lasting marriage?
