Pandora's spirit of hope....March 8, 2022

In the survey, BBM is the runaway winner.  If elections were held today, he would be the winner.  The good news is that the presidential elections is still two months away and a lot of things could still happen.  Tyrant Duterte (whose term is also about to expire) appointed pro BBM lawyers to the COMELEC.  This act speaks volume of who he is really supporting in this presidential race despite his initial pronouncements that he is neutral in this derby.  Dark clouds are still ahead and I expect them to rule in favor of BBM whenever there is an electoral contest.

The good news here is that people are starting to wake up and shifting to support to the opposition.  They are realizing that Tyrant Duterte was a fiasco and people are going to the opposite spectrum to show their support for the opposition (to and dismay to the BBM camp).  It is just a matter of time before things go to its proper place.  In my estimation, it will get worst before it gets better.  The good thing in this equation is that there is now light at the end of the tunnel.  Tyrant Duterte still has his role to play in this equation and unwittingly, things will go to its proper place and decency will be back in the saddle once more.

The Russia invasion is now rearing its ugly financial fallout-increased prices in gasoline prices.  It is now hovering around 65-70 pesos per liter and it is just starting.  Some economist are projecting a price range of around 90-100 pesos per liter in the very near future.

We are not yet out of the pandemic and here is another crisis that will test again the resolve of Filipinos and of the republic.

First things first, kick Tyrant Duterte out of office, prevent his chosen candidate from winning and lick this Russian riddle later.  There are still dark clouds in the horizon but there is already a miracle that is waiting to happen to counter this.  We will just have to keep the faith...
