DOT Ilocos Region Director Jeff Ortega Introduces Bongbong Marcos as VP at an event

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The Department of Tourism (DOT) released a reminder to officials after DOT Ilocos Region Director Jeff Ortega introduced former Sen. Bongbong Marcos as Philippines' "former Senator and Vice President" in an event: The DOT reminds all its officials and employees to perform and discharge their duties with the highest degree of excellence and professionalism.

Ortega introduced Marcos as Vice President in a tourism event in Ilocos Norte. Ortega even uploaded the video on his Instagram account. 

The hubris of this Ortega, to post the video on his own public Instagram with over 100k followers, as if expecting there going to be no repercussions. What is it about this crop of government officials under the Duterte administration that are all acting like they're untouchable?

Once they’re part of the cabal, they’re all kind of shit.

Ortega did not just do it for show, or as a joke. He had the gall to even post this on his social media account after the event. Meaning, he meant every word he said.

Trapo. Resign, now!

Marcos was defeated by then Camarines Sur Representative Leni Robredo during the 2016 VP race.

DOT: We remain guided by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) especially in expressing views on current political problems or issues.

With this, the DOT remains committed to the development of the tourism industry.

Ortega is a disgrace in the Atenean community. Ateneans stand for the truth only but he proudly announced Bongbong Marcos as the VP. Tanggapin mo ng talo yung talo.

This person is very much educated but still chose to be a slave of his own fantasy. Taught of what is right and wrong and yet chose to be wrong by being unrespectul of a person in a government position. A very cheap move. Truly, you can't buy class. Kiss ass pa more!

Ortega is from a political family that lorded La Union for decades. They are also known to be close to the Marcoses. So no surprise, there. 

Ortega has long been a DDS and Marcos supporter. I'm glad that’s finally coming to light for more people to see.

Secretary Berna Puyat, please admonish your collaborator. 

Public office is public trust. You cannot proclaim Marcos is vice president when it is public knowledge that it is far from the truth. Ortega should be dismissed for blatant disregard of the law and constitution!

Atty. Leni Robredo is the legitimate VP of the land, the Republic of the Philippines!

Unfortunately, it is the current theme of this administration. This, too, shall pass.

But honestly, I took it as him rubbing salt to the wound of the fake Oxford graduate. All they can do is wish!

No amount of "cancel culture" would put the Jeff Ortega's of the world in check.

The worst kind of trapo, are the ones who came from the best schools. Those who discarded their principles after tasting power. 

We're looking at you, Jeff Ortega

AJ Perez' cornea recipient seen at Eat Bulaga's Bawal Judgemental

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"AJ Perez" is one of the hottest trending topic in the Philippines, mainly because the recipient of his cornea was a contestant at Eat Bulaga's Bawal Judgemental.

Daniel is the recipient of AJ Perez' cornea.

Mag-10 years na mula ng mawala si AJ Perez. Ang bilis ng panahon dahil binata na ngayon ang recipient ng cornea niya.

So can you see AJ through his eyes? 

Nakakahanga naman si AJ dahil kahit sa huling sandali ay nakatulong pa rin siya.

On the show, Maine Mendoza asked the Resource Person-Doctor "kung pwede po ba yon Doc matransplant ang cornea na naaksidente/namatay yung donor (AJ Perez)?"

GMA must also ensure that questions like this should be posed in a sensitive & politically correct manner.

Nashookt ako. Goosebumps all over my body pagkarinig ko sa name ni AJ Perez. It's like seeing AJ Perez too. 

Hello Daniel, live well.

There were a lot Giggerboys fan. Girls and bayots would watch All About Luv and be all kilig. Hahaha. Also when AJ Perez died, many literally cried.

Kinilabutan din ba kayo? Nagtaasan rin ba mga balahibo/buhok nyo sa braso? Nanlamig at pinagpawisan ba kayo ng malamig?

Masakit parin ang maagang pagkawala ni Aj Perez. Pero gayunpaman, nakakatuwa na may isa siyang natulungan at nabigyan ng bagong pag-asa. 

Habang buhay na mananatili sa aming puso at alaala ang isang AJ Perez Lalo na tuwing makikita si Daniel.

#TagSciDoBetterNow: Sexual misconduct in Taguig Science High School

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"#TagSciDoBetterNow started as a response towards the allegations of sexual misconduct in Taguig Science High School (TSHS). A response has yet to be issued by the school."

A group chat full of students sexually harassing their female schoolmates got leaked, and now they're taking screenshots of those who are tweeting about this saying the consequences are going to be 'heavy'. Is that a threat?

While TagSci admin is sleeping tightly tucked in their beds, students are making noise to be heard.  Please hear them out.

You cannot consider TagSci or TSHS' tweets as mere rants. They are not throwing tantrums here. They are standing with and for the victims who were silenced and admonished instead of the molesters for the sake of the school's representation. 

Please don't forget that it's the students who make up TSHS and not the other way around.

This culture of impunity—be it within an institution or from the national government—must be brought to an end! 

TSHS, heed the students' calls!

We call for justice and action towards the cases of harassment, as well as the enactment and strengthening of anti-sexual misconduct policies within the school. 

We stand by the students of TSHS and call that their institution investigates this issue, and protect their students against any form of sexual misconduct, abuse and harassment.

TagSci is only one of the many schools facing numerous cases of harassment. We will not stop until justice is served to the victims. One school at a time. 

Heads, admins of education institutions have a duty to investigate cases and provide for the resolution, settlement or prosecution of acts of  sexual harassment in school. 

So apparently, the administration of TSHS is doing a crackdown of students participating in an effort to bring sexual harrasers to justice. Instead of helping the victims, the school is silencing protest. 

The TSHS student body will not be silenced as we seek sanctions of the perpetrators.

They need our voices to be heard.

We humbly ask for your support in this fight against human rights violators and further tolerance and negligence of cases of sexual harassment within the premises of our institution.

The teachers who are also victims can't fight because they're still under the TSHS but let's continue to fight for them and be their voice!

Dear Taguig City government, kindly act on the issue regarding sexual harassment at Taguig Science High School. The school admin wants to protect the name of the school instead of their students' rights. 

To the admin of TSHS, pls act now! The students are affected by these issues. This is the reality, and they are being traumatized because of your 'process', act for the students, not for the name.

Can we also call out to the students who were also victims of sexual harassment from the previous years? We need to hold accountable the perpetrators too. Let's definitely not forget those who are left unpunished.

Imagine your lifelong trauma being reduced to mere "negative vibes." Konting compassion naman diyan, please!

It is not a tale. The horrors, scars, and traumas that were induced and imparted to the victims and the witnesses (basically everyone involved) is beyond what words can delineate. 

Many are now coming forward to tell their sexual harassment experiences at TagSci. There are a lot of unspoken and unresolved traumas that were born from a place students called their second home and they carry them until now.

You hold so much power than you think, don't let anyone try to erase what had happened.

We condemn sexual harassment and Taguig Science High School’s incapability to protect its students and hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.

Tagsci, if this is gonna be another episode of "patawag magulang" "suspension for a day" "dalin sa guidance" then, MY ALMA MATER IS DEFINITELY A TRASH! 

The school has been covering up these issues and letting it slip? Maybe because it doesn't want it's name to be tainted, but sacrificing the students in the process and tolerating the perpetrators.

No one should ever be scared to speak up. Now that a lot of people are voicing out about this concern, it's time to make actions NOW!

This call is not meant to cyberbully the perpetrators but rather to serve as a message that sexually harassing someone is not something that you can just easily get away. Hold them accountable! 

The end of education is character!

This is a call for Taguig Science High School admins to do better and give its students the proper and just environment that is fit for learning without the fear of being sexually harassed. 

Can you feel the power of Scientians when united?,

I hope other schools will also have the courage to do a movement and SPEAK UP. This ain't about being trending. This is about speaking for your rights.  

Collective action is better than fighting alone.

"Our integrity sells for so little, but it is all we really have. It is the very last inch of us. But within that inch, we are free."
