Hi, Bencard- yes, it’s a typical pinoy’s reaction.

But look at him. This is an issue of countless bodies that died and couldn’t be recovered. It’s so unbecoming of a high government official to laugh like that in front of TV cameras concerning a Major Disaster.

hector, but that’s just one of pinoy’s reaction when put on the spot. he laughs usually when he slips on a banana peel, doesn’t he?

I could understand that there are times when the weather forecast just wouldn’t be that accurate.

However, the sight of PAGASA chief Nilo’s “laughing reactions” on Sulpicio Line’s damage suit just made me feel awkward.

I mean, he should just explain things thoroughly in front of the media instead of making that kind of gesture.

cvj,

Sulpicio should be held accountable because of the poor/non-existent evacuation procedure, engine failure, and recklessness in proceeding to sail. The government should be faulted for its posturing and slow response.

Not only that. The govt should be faulted for absconding and NOT DOING (or NOT KNOWING) its job. The Coast Guard should not have allowed the ship to sail under the condition, knowing the unpredictability of the weather, and of Pag-Asa’s almost unreliability in making forecasts.

This tragedy is Sulpicio’s fourth, I believe. It has not learned a lesson over the years of accumulated mishaps. And so does this inept govt, many of whose officials are mere appointees who don’t know their jobs.

Pardon this commenter, she still can not get what blogging means. so she does not know that the word blog word came out only in the 90’s.

she thinks that commenting is synonymous to blogging. aiaiai.
