Kuya Paolo Pingo : Smile Ka Din, Konti Lang




Wazzup Pilipinas!


McDonalds' latest commercial has gained popularity, both positive and negative, and I'm not talking about the previous Minions toy craze collectables found on every happy Meal, or even the Smurfs 2 collectable toys that they followed next (but not as cute as the Minions toys).

What I'm really referring to is Kuya Paolo Pingo - yeah ....that character that depicted a somewhat.... himself.... which caught the attention of many viewers as to how to react appropriately to the commercial. From being sexist II meant to say racist - aftershock of that Chito Miranda video scandal) to "getting sympathy or pity from the mass audience", there has been a lot said about the new TVC of McDonalds.

But it was for me touching indeed. Heartwarming to say the least. Well, the intention was to indeed create a discussion among the people who will watch it for the first time, and share the experience among friends and colleagues - by tapping onto the subconsciously "good" personality of people.

Out from that commercial came memes (as with other popular topics online).... In majority, these memes were not designed for the purpose of attacking the commercial or even the lead characters portraying the roles of brothers.

It was endearing and oh so cute as many tried to create their own version of giving out just the right "Konti Lang" smile!

Court of Appeals Has Declared The Fort as Part of Makati City


Wazzup Pilipinas!

"The Court of Appeals has declared portions of Fort Bonifacio, including the upscale locale of Bonifacio Global City, all in all a total of 729 hectare, as being part of Makati City and not Taguig City.

This sort of ends a 20-year legal battle that started during congressional debates over Makati’s cityhood.

The CA’s Sixth Division ordered the Taguig City government to “cease and desist” from exercising jurisdiction over several areas within Fort Bonifacio, which were earlier declared part of its territory.

I'm sure this decision will be tried and tested in the Supreme Court - the last resort by means of law.

Also, Makati taxes are higher than Taguig. This might have some implications for those who are situated in the Fort.
