Why Siling Labuyo?

capsicum frutescens. This is the scientific name of Siling Labuyo which is known as chili pepper in English.
The fruit is used as a condiment while the leaves are cooked as vegetable. It is claimed to be an excellent source of calcium and iron and a good source of phosphorus, vitamins A and B and citric acid. It is also believe to have medicinal values for the cure of arthritis, rheumatism, toothache, scalp ringworm, cough, and sore throat. For more information about siling labuyo, visit

Eh bakit naman ito ang napili kong titulo ng aking blog?. Kasi mahilig ako nito, lalo na sa bicol express. Ung laing na may maraming sili pero masarap. Pampasarap naman talaga ang sili lalo na sa pulutang karne. (Oy, hindi ako lasenggo ah. Umiinom ako pero paminsan minsan.)
 
Gusto ko sa blog na ito pagusapan ang maiinit na isyu sa ating bansa. Medyo opinionated kasi ako pero I know how to listen to others naman. And I respect others opinion also. Kung baga open minded ako.
 
O sya, next time uli...masakit na kasi ang mata ko eh.

In The Hot Seat

Now the beans are spilled. Hot Senator Ping Lacson fulfilled his promise to reveal the true side of former President Erap Estrada. Perhaps his revelation will help solve the decades old Dacer-Corbito double murder case. Whatever his motivations are is beside the point. What is important is the uncovering of the truth of who the real master mind is. On why it is only now that the senator is talking, he alone knows. Anyway, it is better to be late than never.

Senator Lacson should know. He was the chief of the Philippine National Police and the head of the defunct PAOCTF when the murder happened. It is very sad, very disgusting, very nauseating that the very anti-crime office that is created to solve crimes is the one being implicated in the commission of a crime. Hopefully, it will be the turn of ex-convict president Estrada to talk. It is not enough for him to just give a blanket denial. He wants to be president again but he must first clear his name or else he might just be hauled to prison once again.

There are still many unsolved murder cases in the country involving high civilian and military officials. May the Dacer-Corbito murder case be solved swiftly if only to prove that there is justice in this country.
