Wazzup Pilipinas!

With just more than a week to go before the much-anticipated Azkals-Uzbeks match on September 8, movie industry personalities have joined the call for Filipinos to support the Philippine national football team as it guns for its third straight win in the ongoing qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup.

In separate messages, TV hosts and actresses Coleen Garcia and Karylle and TV personality Ryan Bang called on people to watch the exciting game and buy their tickets now.

Their call came after Azkals players Juan Luis Guirado, Dennis Villanueva, Iain Ramsay, Daisuke Sato and Kenshiro Michael Daniels guested in the noontime show “It’s Showtime” on ABS-CBN.

“Suportahan natin ang ating mga kababayan na Azkals sa darating na September 8. They will be competing at the Philippine Sports Stadium against Uzbekistan,” Karylle said.

She also mentioned that ticket holders will get a free entrance to the Palace Pool Club in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig after the match.

Coleen, who incidentally is niece of player Juani Guirado, said tickets to the game are already on sale at Ticketworld and urged fans to get hold of one now.

The Tale of the Three Presidentiables: Vice President Jejomar Binay's Statement on INC Protests

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Is there a clear act of harassment from the administration towards Iglesia Ni Cristo? Should we tolerate whatever inconvenience was cause by the INC protests? Well, that is what Vice President Jejomar Binay is apparently saying.

“Sabi ko nga, alam mo, yang mga rallies, yang mass action, ay protected iyan in the constitution, because the mass action is part of the freedom of speech.” says Binay told reporters in Dipolog Friday when asked to comment on the gridlock that the INC rally apparently resulted to.

“If it caused inconvenience, we have to tolerate it, we have to respect it. We will have to listen to it,” said the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) party standard-bearer.

Earlier, Binay defended the Christian sect from the alleged meddling of DOJ Secretary Leila de Lima and the Aquino administration,particularly on the reported rift within the INC leadership.

The INC is known as a bloc-voting group. As such, politikos aggressively woo the faction for its votes whenever election time is near.

Asked by a reporter if Binay was in constant communication with the INC, the Vice President answered: “Ang lalim naman ng tanong mo. Bakit mo naman ako idinidikit doon sa…ikaw naman o. Sinasabi ko lang, respetuhin natin iyon.”

“That is a guaranteed provision in the constitution, yung magprotesta. At saka yung separation of church and state. Wag naman natin pakialaman yung ginagawa doon sa kanilang religion,” stressed the opposition boss. -  Politics.com.ph
