Pinoy Trending: Netizens Slams Coco Martin, Huwag kang OA

Rodel Pacheco Nacianceno, Coco Martin bared his anger over the government closure of ABS-CBN's broadcast operations, saying it has robbed many Filipinos of their entertainment, means of being informed, and their livelihood.
"Napakasakit ng ginawa ninyo sa mga Pilipino!" Nacianceno wrote.
"Pasensya na po dahil hindi ko na mapigilan ang sobrang galit na nararamdaman ko. Nakakapagod nang manahimik at magpigil kung ang mga nasa paligid mo naman ay mga walang-pusong tao," he said.
Nacianceno, 38, has been a Kapamilya star for nearly two decades since 2001. Now dubbed local showbiz's "Primetime King" who is also juggling producing and directing duties, Nacianceno has been credited for helping revive careers of former stars — a crusade that has unfolded for four years through "Ang Probinsyano."
He said: “Pag balik namin pag sasapakin ko lahat ng tuwang tuwa ngayon na sarado na ang ABSCBN!!! Baka pag balik namin sasabihin ng mga bashers namin miss na miss niyo kami at makikipila kayo sa showtime para manood ng live at sumali sa contest.
Coco stated: “Ganito kasimple yan mga kaibigan, lahat ng mga ayaw samin at galit sa ABS-CBN at nagdidiwang ngayon wag niyo kami ifollow. Hindi namin kayo kailangan sa buhay namin para laitin kami at pagtawanan sa pinagdadaanan naming lahat!
Yung mga totoong taga hanga namin at naniniwala samin ang manatili sa IG account namin, yung mga bashers at trolls na nakikisilip lang at may opinion pa sa buhay namin, malaya po kayo makakaalis, hindi po namin kayo kailangan sa buhay namin! Hindi kami mamatay pag umalis kayo, ikatutuwa pa po namin. Maraming Salamat po!”
"Hindi ko alam kung anong klaseng mga tao kayo at kung anong klaseng konsensiya ang mayroon kayo para maisip niyong ipasara ang ABS-CBN sa gitna ng daan at libong mga taong nagkakasakit at namamatay dahil sa epidemyang ito. Hindi kayo ang mga taong dapat kinakausap ng maayos, ang dapat sa inyo tapatan ng kabastusan at kawalanghiyaan tulad ng inaasal ninyo!" he added.
Nacianceno went on: "Wala man akong gaanong kaalaman sa batas at maaring masmarunong kayo sa akin, pero sana naisip niyo man lang ang sitwasyon ng ating bansa! Sana sa wakas ay makatulog kayo ng mahimbing at maipagmalaki niyo ang naggawa ninyo! Sana ipagkapuri kayo ng pamilya ninyo sa tagumpay ninyong gutumin at yurakan ang mga buhay ng ilang libong pamilya!"
In a subsequent Instagram post, however, Martin directly mentioned the NTC, as well Solicitor General Jose Calida, as being responsible for endangering the livelihood of ABS-CBN's employees — an estimated 11,000 but for DOLE it will be merely 5,000.
"Tutal wala naman kasiguraduhan kung buhay pa ako pagkatapos ng pandemic na ito, tama lang na masabi ko ang mga saloobin ko," he said.
"Sa mga taong pilit nagsulong sa pagpapasara sa ABS-CBN, sana ay panatag na panatag na ang kalooban niyo. Sana nagdala ito ng lubos na kaligayahan sa mga puso ninyo. Mahirap magsawalang-kibo sa mga taong katulad ninyo na patuloy na nang-aabuso. Wala kayong mga konsensiya, naatim niyong pagkaitan ng hanapbuhay at pabayaang magutom ang ilang libong mga pamilya! Lalo lang lulubog sa kahirapan ang mga Pilipino! Ito ba ang serbisyo niyo sa bayan?" he asked.
"Hindi ako mangingiming sabihin ang totoong nararandaman ko ngayon. Sa mga taong tulad niyo na hindi karapat-dapat pakitaan ng diplomasya at pagkamalumanay. Ang dapat sa inyo usapang sanggano at walang-hiyaan! Galing ako sa hirap at jologs ang pagkatao ko, kaya wala akong pakialam ngayon kung anong sasabihin ng ibang tao. Hindi man ako kasing talino ng iba, alam ko at malinaw sa akin na mali at kawalang katarungan ang tanggalan ng hanapbuhay ang ilang libong empleyado ng isang kumpanyang naglilingkod sa sambayanang Pilipino ng ilang dekada! Maraming maraming salamat Solicitor General [Jose] Calida at sa bumubuo ng National Telecommunications Commission sa kontribusyon niyo sa ating bayan!" he wrote.
"Tinatarantado ninyo ang mga Pilipino!" Nacianceno said.


Netizens understands Rodel Nacianceno, aka Coco Martin but his reaction was "Over-Acting". As he only voiced out what is beneficial for ABS-CBN in particular, his projects and personal issues for the network upon knowing its controversies for the passed 25 years. The network has been fishing sympathy for the public early this year. And no doubt it will go down to its employees and artists.
Journalie F. Payonan, ex camera man on his recent post narrates how ABS-CBN treats project employee or Talent within the network, without benefits and no security of tenure. As a camera man, He was a talent for 10 years and never had the chance for regularization, later claims he was illegally terminated from his work among a hundred employees. Payonan said that sympathy should not be asked from the public but rather ABS-CBN should abide what the law requires.
The network reported 11,000 employees but according to DOLE it's employees are merely 5,000. As explained, the difference were sub-contractors or talents that includes Payonan as a camera man. In 2018, a new guideline on contractualization has been passed that any job description deemed necessary for the operation of the business should have been regular employees. An example of which our camera man, reporters or the like in the case of ABS-CBN.
Jobert Sucaldito hits Coco Martin and ABS-CBN in using the 11,000 employees as human shield to ask for sympathy. Sucaldito also voiced out that he was also a victim of the illegal termination caused by the network. 
SMNI News is also reminding the public that no one is above the law and it is our responsibility to know the law. Highlighted out was Nacianceno's anger on social media that some netizens are now accepting the challenge of Coco Martin for a boxing sparring match.
Netizens, has already expressed its dissatisfaction of Nacianceno and some of the ABS-CBN artists in various social media site. Others expressed that these individuals are only good on TV but brain-empty. Furhter Nacianceno aka Coco Martin should have solve his sentiments first to ABS-CBN and to whatever reason it has allowed the network to shutdown despite of the number of years of its application. And also did the network has settled its legal issues or this might be the reason it has long been resolved.

Weather: Filipinos remains strong as Typhoon Ambo Hits PH


The coronavirus pandemic is complicating Philippine efforts to move hundreds of thousands of people into evacuation centers where social distancing is hard to enforce as a strong typhoon hits through its eastern provinces.


Typhoon Ambo (Vongfong), the first to hit the country this year, intensified after slamming into the eastern Philippines on Thursday afternoon, packing winds of 155km (96 miles) an hour and gusts of up to 255kph (158 miles an hour), the state weather bureau said in a bulletin. (PAG-ASA)

Provincial and city governments, many of which are already strapped for resources due to the outbreak, are limited with logistical and space issues, with an estimated 200,000 people needed to be moved from their homes in coastal and mountainous areas because of fears of flooding and landslides.

The Philippines was bracing for the typhoon while trying to fight the outbreak largely by locking Filipinos in their homes and prohibiting gatherings that can set off infections. Many Filipinos remains positive of the situation.

PAG-ASA warned that "along with large swells, this storm surge may cause potentially life-threatening coastal inundation". | bp

 A more rounded shape in a tropical cyclone indicates it is becoming a more organized storm. Infrared satellite imagery also indicated cooling cloud top temperatures, which means that cloud tops are extending higher into the troposphere. The higher the cloud top, the stronger the uplift of air in a storm, and usually, the stronger the storm.

PAGASA, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration, the entity that issues forecasts and warnings for the country noted, "Between tonight and tomorrow (13 May) evening, Ambo (Vongfong) will bring scattered light to moderate with at times heavy rain showers during thunderstorms over Mindanao and Eastern Visayas. Between tomorrow evening and Thursday (14 May) evening, Ambo (Vongfong) will bring moderate to heavy rains over Eastern Visayas, Catanduanes, Albay, Sorsogon, and Masbate. Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal (TCWS) #1 may be raised over Eastern Samar and the eastern portion of Northern Samar in the next 6 to 12 hours in anticipation of strong winds associated with the approaching ."

World Trending: China Cover Up Coronavirus


Corona Virus, now COVID-19 started in Wuhan City of China reportedly in a wet market of exotic animals. Chinese government reports that its first case was on December 31. But classified record's suggest that it started in mid-November and about 200 cases at the end of 2019,  according to an investigative reporter Josephine Ma, China Editor - South China Morning Post.

Wuhan City with 11 million people has allowed at about 5 million to travel to-and-from Wuhan to celebrate Chinese New Year together with their families, weeks before Wuhan City lockdown on the 23rd of January. And surprisingly the world believed that China was able to control the situation and later realized that it already spread around the world, and started a global pandemic that spared no nation killing thousands of individuals.

Dr. Li Weliang
Dr. Li Wenliang, a whistle blower who got arrested when he tried to warned the public for the new corona virus at its early stage later died of the virus itself weeks later. Dr. Wenliang's death spreads around China and triggered individuals to seek for freedom of speech as the government is doing censorship regarding coronavirus stories. Communist party of China does not want the spread of rumors and authorities has concealed the truth to the public. And after four weeks of the first infection, China notifies the World Health Organization (WHO) of the outbreak. 

While doing some research in Youtube, I found a recent documentary of a reporter in China Sebastien Le Belzic, entitled "A Quarantine Diary". An inside story how COVID-19 has affect China's capital, Beijing. It gives us an overview on China's way of preventing the spread of the virus. The lockdown was also affecting China's capital from all sorts of businesses. Nothing worst if your are leaving in a Communist country where there are clear oppression and no freedom of information.

Above all this; the quarantine and the series of lockdowns that is affecting the lives of the people but also to the economy of even the superpower nations. The underlying question will be, Did China really lied to the rest world? | bp
