"Lugaw" has been categorized as non-essential

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Move over Dalgona Coffe, Sushi Bake and Ube Pandesal! Lugaw is here to claim its spotlight this ECQ! Lugaw this ECQ! 

A food delivery rider was prohibited Tuesday morning from delivering “lugaw” or rice porridge to a customer in a barangay in Bulacan province.

I fucking lost it when she said "essential po ba si lugaw?" Where on Earth is this lady's brain going? or does she even have one? Lugaw is FOOD!!! Isang malaking kabobohan! Basta pagkain essential, tanga!

Lugaw has been a favorite food of mine since I was a little kid. I love it with boiled egg and fried tokwa (tofu) plus chicharon and lots of soy sauce with vinegar, sugar, onion leeks, toasted garlic, etc. 

Lugaw for me is like a plain white tee and denim jeans - you can dress it up or down, cuts across all social classes, and makes you feel good.  

However, Lugaw is now evicted from the food category...well that is according to certain barangay officials.

Effect ba ng pandemya ang lost of common sense? Akala ko kasi smell and taste lang eh.

Lugaw is cancelledt. 

Lugaw is Sadt.

Buti na lang nakapaglugaw na ako a few days ago.

Dear Grab ph , you need to revise your advisory like this:

“We’re serving you 24/7 this ECQ so that you can stay safe at home while we bring you food, essentials and lugaw.” 

Lugaw is essential, as is super essential. Lalo na ung tinatawag ng DDS at Marcos loyalist na Leni Lugaw, super kailangan ng bayan now.

What do VP Leni and lugaw have in common?

They're both essential. 

Other reasons why Lugaw is Essential:

- It's Food

- It's healthy

- It's the Go-To food when you're too weak to eat harder food (pun intended)

- It's cost efficient

- Bitch, lugaw is life.

Apparently, common sense is never common among government officials. Filipinos are admired all over the world for their wit and beauty pero dito sa Pilipinas, walang common sense mga nagpapatupad ng law.

Kulang sa briefing si Madam... kung hindi essential si Lugaw, being a food category, bakit eto palagi ang pinapakain ng gobyerno sa mga feeding program...hahaha!

Ang tatanga. Promise. Sobrang ang tatanga talaga. Wala bang orientation ang mga ito? "I used to think communication was the key until I realized comprehension is. " 

I refuse to live in a world where lugaw isnt categorized as essential food. Marami ang naging bobo at tanga sa ECQ-Season 2. Paano naging hindi essential ang pagkain na lugaw. Dapat sila ang pagmultahin.

Paano kung may sakit ung umorder. Hi di pwedeng kumain ng solid food. Hindi makalabas. Hayst. Ayusin ninyo naman.

Baka pwedeng i-translate sa Tagalog yung latest IATF guidelines para walang ganito, nakakainis na kasi parang di alam ng mga nagpapatupad ng ECQ. Pakisabihan din sila na serbisyo publiko at wala sila karapatan mamilosopo at magpahiya ng tao.

Kaya di ako lumalapit sa PNP , kamukha na kasi lahat ni Sinas mga bobo at pilosopo. May sariling interpretation ng batas na applicable lang sa atin pero sila exempted.

What kind of a mother fucking son of a cunt thinks that lugaw isnt an essential.

Labeling Lugaw as "Non-Essential" amidst the pandemic is a blatant stupidity on the side of the so-called frontliner Tanod (if she really is a tanod). Im amazed she mentioned it with conviction. Sa ibang pamilya, pangtawid Gutom yan..napaka insensitive naman knowing na naka video.

With a few exceptions, our entire government, from top to bottom, is populated now with people who think like this woman in the video enforcing the rules, saying with smug confidence, “hindi essential ang lugaw.”  They take their tone from the top - Duterte who has several dumb statements similar to this Lugaw fiasco.

Lugaw is god tier elite. It's a staple for merienda and to warm you up on cold lonely nights.

Yung iba walang pang de-lata, pang lugaw lang meron! if in your status you do not consider lugaw as an essential, then try to have consideration for others who can only have lugaw on their table.

To all Lugaw business owners out there:

This is your time to shine! You have now the time of your life to market your product... KAHIT SINASABI NI ATE FROM BARANGAY NA HINDI DAW ESSENTIAL ANG LUGAW!

The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition' Sends Two Candidates Home In Action-Packed Second Episode

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Martial arts legends Georges St-Pierre and Renzo Gracie lead daring physical challenge;
Catcha Group Co-Founder & Group CEO Patrick Grove Advises In Boardroom

“The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition" returned with another exciting episode on Monday, March 29, on One Sports.

Martial arts legends Georges St-Pierre and Renzo Gracie appeared in the episode and participated in a difficult physical task with the candidates. Catcha Group Co-Founder and Group CEO Patrick Grove later joined ONE Championship Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong and Advisor Niharika Singh in the boardroom.

Physical Challenge: Fort Siloso Skywalk on Sentosa Island

For the physical challenge, candidates had to rappel down an 11-story structure and quickly climb back up via rope ladder. The team with the shortest combined time from all candidates would earn a victory celebration at Bar Square and receive an advantage in the next business challenge.

St-Pierre and Gracie surprised the cast by performing the task first, and Task Captain Dom Lau briefed the group shortly afterward.

Candidates from both teams experienced difficulty rappelling down the skywalk and struggled to maneuver their way up the dangling ladder. Japanese candidate Sho Takei struggled with his fear of heights but ultimately willed himself through the challenge.

Despite Sho's tough time, his teammates pulled through, and Team Valor captured the victory behind a strong group effort.

Business Challenge: Seven-Day Social Media Campaign

Teams had to create an engaging seven-day social media campaign, choosing between influencers Yumika Hoskin and Justin Bratton to promote Andaz Singapore's designer hotel experience. Because Team Valor won the physical challenge, the group had first pick.

With Filipino candidate Louie Sangalang as Project Manager for Team Valor, the unit mostly worked together in harmony while preventing Clinton Tudor from disrupting the productivity. Meanwhile, Eugene Chung's inexperience as a leader for Team Conquest resulted in a disorganized mess.

Both teams delivered solid presentations, but it quickly became clear which side had created the more robust campaign.

The Pitches

With ONE’s Siyodtong, Singh, and Catcha Group’s Grove examining every aspect of both marketing plans, the atmosphere was intense.

Sho, Kexin Ye, and Monica Millington led the presentation for Team Valor, impressing Sityodtong by combining analytics with creative ideas. However, Grove pointed out the lack of a clear seven-day plan, which the challenge required.

In contrast, Niraj Puran Rao and Paulina Purnomowati presented a clear plan for Team Conquest, but the campaign was bland and unoriginal. Singh criticized Alvin Ang for not contributing to his team enough and Roman Wilson for his PowerPoint design flaws.

With vastly different approaches, both teams headed to the boardroom.

The Boardroom: Double-Elimination

Team Valor once again emerged victorious in the business challenge. Sityodtong credited the win to a superior concept and praised Millington's ability to build brand identity. Conversely, the ONE Championship CEO sent Ang, Chung, and Wilson from Team Conquest to the chopping block.

Chung delivered a passionate speech about changing his life and the inspiration he took from Sityodtong's own rags-to-riches life story, which moved the ONE CEO.

That kept Chung on the show, but Wilson's passiveness and Ang's lack of contribution saw both of them eliminated from the competition.

“The Apprentice” is one of the biggest non-scripted reality television programs in history, judging the business skills of candidates who are competing for a job offer under a high-profile CEO. It has aired in more than 120 countries. The first season of “The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition” consists of 13 episodes and will be seen in the Philippines on Thursdays, 8:50 pm on AXN cable network and on Mondays at 9 p.m. on One Sport.

Four Essentials in putting up your own Business

Starting your own business is one of the bravest and most exciting things you can do in your lifetime. But sometimes, it can be a little intimidating, especially when you do not know how and where to begin.

While it can really be challenging, it always pays if you know what you need before entering a new business venture. For Santé, a provider of premier natural and organic health and wellness products and services, these things are guaranteed to be an essential part of your journey to starting and achieving your dream business's success.



Prepare Your Capital

Your capital would be your financial assets used to generate wealth through investments. There are four types of capital: debt, equity, trading, and working capital.

It would help if you had the capital to keep your business going, and it can come in the form of equipment, human resources, or loans. Without it, or when improperly managed, it can lead to total business failure.



Know Your Market

You need to know your competition, the people who will buy your products and services, the industry trends, and more to understand better the proper steps you must take to make your business a success. Regardless of the industry, you will be a part of; you can never know everything at the start.



Sell High-Quality Products

Of course, the success of your business is determined by how much the consumers love your product. When choosing the product you want to sell, make sure it has been proven and tested to assure your business has a higher chance of success and build yourself as a reliable businessman.



Be E-Commerce Ready

We live in the age of digital technology, and most consumers search online for anything they want and need. Every business needs to adapt to succeed, and staying out of the loop might prevent your business from reaching the desired goal it aims for.
