Oh, very well said. I know that government people can't strike but they can rally. And nothing excuses the beating that leader Teacher Fidel got. They got this on video? Did the newspapers get this too? These so called lawmen who don't know their law, not to mention human rights, have a lot of explaining and redressing to do. <ul> <li>Annamanila, my apologies for this delayed response.

  • Annamanila, my apologies for this delayed response. Re this case, I don’t know if they were able to follow up what happened to CHR. I heard something in the news about this some time ago.

My first time to comment although I've visited several times. You are so right about the plight of teachers, it is no wonder that many of them seek greener pastures elsewhere, kahit hindi na sila teacher. I also agree that we need to get our act together and decide on which battles to fight. Reminds me of the Malu F brouhaha. I happened to be in Australia on business at that time, and the news there was how a Filipino OFW died at work. Did anybody pick up his cause like they did the Malu F cause? I visited the website where it was reported and there were pathetically ONLY 3 comments. Maybe it's our psyche too - we limit ourselves by kung ano'ng alam nating kaya natin. <ul> <li>Hi, Megamom, my apologies for the very delayed response. Re the Malu F case, I didn't write anything about it since it was overrated already. I don't really want to write about issues like these just to get a linkback or a trackback just so I can increase my rank and authority to have my say on some things. I write what I think is unjust and what I think topics people should care and even know about. Topics that would definitely make a difference not just to those who will find themselves in my blog but difference for me, to help me become better as a person. Kaya nga po even if I do paid posts, I make sure I choose the topics that I will write about.</li> </ul> Hi teacherjulie. My first time to comment although I’ve visited several times.

Talaga namang dehado mga teachers when it comes to govt. priorities, sila na nga sobra pagod (among govt. employees) sila pa underpaid. And that CYBER-ED proj is a lot of crap just like the ZTE. Dami na namang yayaman dyan...Hay, high-blood na tuloy ako, sorry... <ul> <li>Wenchie, hay, very very delayed response, my apologies to you. You are so right about the teachers. As of now (Nov22 na :)) so many media exposure of giving of hundreds of thousands of pesos given to government officials, elected or appointed then I heard last night over the AM radio that some teachers who served in the elections were still not paid in full! Idinaan sa gives, kung ilan, I don't have any idea. Maryosep naman yan! Grabe!</li> </ul> Hi Julie, kaawa awang mga teachers…Before, I attended a conference (on behalf of my boss) and got to meet the alliance’s officials.

But it seems that the share isn't enough to shoulder everything. They even proposed a CyberEd, a project using satellite broadcast. An absurd idea, there aren't even habitable classrooms in far flung areas, even in poor urban areas. Why?  Your guess is as good as mine ;)</li> </ul> sad! sad reality of our government and our country. it is true about the condition of the schools in the rural areas as i have witnessed it myself. i even donated a dozen of plastic chairs to our school because the school didn’t have enough chairs to accommodate all the students. why the government doesn’t do anything about it is beyond me.
