The lyrics of J-A-S-M-S Song is really like this:

J-A-S-M-S oh yes the school we love the best
J-A-S-M-S oh yes we sing with a happy zest
come let us join together
children a friendship bound
growing, sharing, learning
alert in by the body sound

we are the JASMS marching on today
we are the JASMS boys and girls so gay
we work together
to build our country strong
reaching out towards others
singing this happy song

this is the JASMS song now

” alWe need brave men of principle and conviction like Jose Abad Santos. Where are the likes of him today?” By Palabok

Sadly, Palabok those brave men of principles and convictions don’t live another day to fight in our society.

As for the those political appointees, their loyalty to their master should end as soon, where their loyalty to their country begins. That should have been their guiding principles. As always I have spent a month lecturing the wisdom of good governance to those willing to listen at my own expense ( a very expensive exploit), and the benefits of obeying the laws, even without the deterent of punishment as enforcement is lacking as I observe and how eventually if will filter down to benefits of all. I hope that my working visit will somehow in any way effected those I came in contact with. I can only wish I could stay longer. thank you all and for those nice friendsong the way I’ll see you soon. vic

Jon, Gloria rewards those who serve her well. Wether they are the best qualified to fill the posts they are appointed to is secondary. Their primary responsibility is to Gloria, which is to promote Gloria’s personal agenda.

One fights for one’s beliefs, Purkungkung. Be reminded of that as well.

Just a reminder Palabok that while ,Jose Abad Santos was working with the system, his brother, Pedro Abad Santos, together with Luis Taruc, formed the Socialist Party of the Philippines, which launched one of the bloodiest, anti-government challenge in our post-democratic history country. Polarization will always be.

Polarized and politicized! It’s hard to trust and believe anything/anyone anymore.

We need brave men of principle and conviction like Jose Abad Santos. Where are the likes of him today?

Who would be the better appointees to ambassadorial posts? I would say those who have trained(studied) for it, and have a lot of experience. They are the rank officers of the DFA. Davide’s stature as the SC chief Justice may help him become an effective ambassador (with the help of DFA officers). But is he really needed there? How about the morale of those from the DFA who are being bypassed with these kind of appointments? (Remember our newly appointed ambassadors to Australia and Greece).

It’s the same with other government offices. When the retired generals get appointed as head, the morale of those getting bypassed is shattered! Is the positive points they bring going to be worth the negative they bring out?

I do not question the fact that these appointees bring with them some skills. But my argument lies in the propriety of making the appointment (in exchange for something done before), and the negative effect to the rank and file officers.
