Publications Use Sexual Innuendos on Maria Ozawa and Robin Padilla Cancelled Movie Project

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"Japanese actress Maria Ozawa expressed disappointment at Robin Padilla after his premature withdrawal from the tightly scheduled shooting of their film to be entered in time for this year's Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) Official." - Inquirer.net

Entered. Premature withdrawal. Tightly. Japanese. Maria ozawa. I could write millions of puns on this article. I believe the pun was obviously intended. I see what Inquirer did here. I'm sure a lot more publications did the same, or are about to do the same. The temptation to use sexual innuendos was just too hard to resist.

Thus, netizens react with all their might. It was naturally expected. This was not the first time the publication resorted to word play. I'm sure it was what Inquirer intended. For everyone to cum ... I mean come ... out and react. It was an intentional bait to lure everyone to engage with the article. This issue will be going viral and trending soon on social media.

"You must be so proud of yourself Inquirer, for that funny, funny wordplay laced with sexual innuendo because, hey, she's a porn star. And why stop with one phrase, why not go overboard funny utilizing her apparently rich background in the porn industry. And you, you clever reader, you got it. You must be very proud of yourself too aren't you. All for a few laughs and some ego boost right." - Camille Tosca

"I agree. Got nothing against porn industry etc. but this writer thinks too highly of his "wit". And everyone's all "biro mo early withdrawal at tight schedule daw! Laugh out loud!". Its a newspaper thats read by people of all ages, including children. You gonna explain to your kids what this means? Nah, more likely you'll back off like this "writer" and look incredulous "huh? Wala naman, baka ikaw madumi and iniisip" <heehee tight schedule heehee>" - Alfie Wee Sit

High-ranking officials from the Department of Justice, Department of Interior and Local Government, and the Department of Science and Technology, signed the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the country’s Cybercrime Prevention Act at the New World Manila Bay Hotel last August 12, 2015.

Also known as RA 10175, the Cybercrime Prevention Act aims to extend the reach of the law in the digital space. “The imperative of having a legal framework that penalizes cybercrime and its many evolving forms provides for strong international cooperation, given the transnational nature of cybercrime, and lays out an effective implementation strategy anchored on the regime of electronic evidence,” said Secretary Leila M. de Lima. “It is our mandate to ensure that all crimes ought not to go unpunished; that wherever cyber-criminals may be found, the full force of the law must apply.” she added.

Representing the outgoing DILG Secretary Mar Roxas was Atty. Edwin Enrile, Undersecretary for Operations who acknowledged the hard work of the composite Technical Working Group that conducted 4 public consultations involving more than 40 organizations and entities. He also assured netizens that their welfare is top priority in the creation of the IRR, “We would like to protect everyone against cybercrime offenses such as illegal access, computer-related forgery, identity theft and fraud, cybersex and online libel.” Undersecretary also expressed the DILG and PNP’s commitment and effective enforcement of the provisions of the Cybercrime Law and its Implementing Rules and Regulations.

Indoor and outdoor pollution caused by the burning of traditional fuels and diesel are causing the premature deaths of over 10 million people in Asia every year. LPG, as a modern, clean burning fuel, is a cost effective solution to pollution, energy poverty and distributed energy for the Philippines and the industry should be further developed to reach its full potential.

In line with this, there will be an upcoming LPG Philippines Forum 2015 on August 24 and 25, 2015 at SMX Aura, Manila, Philippines with delegations of over 200 of the top energy and environmental leaders in the country participating at the LPG Philippines Forum 2015.

The Asian LP Gas Summit has been successfully conducted in Manila, Philippines in 2011, and Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam in 2013. There was a hiatus in 2012 as the World LP Gas Forum was conducted in Bali, Indonesia. Another one was held last March 10-12, 2014 at the Manila Hotel.

The LPGas Summit was established in 2011 to organize the Asian LP Gas Summit. The event seeks to encourage the growth of the LPG industry and to promote discussion and industry networking for the sustainable growth of the LPG industry with a focus on technology adoption, safety and consumer education.
