Do you still wonder why this country is a mess? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Filipino Hanky Panky.
In the appendix to Pascual H. Poblete's 1928 book "Patnubay ng Pagsinta" [Guide to Courtship] you will find a list of signals women used to communicate non-verbally with their lovers using their fans and handkerchiefs. This was a carryover from the late 19th century missed out by the popular teleserye "Ibarra at Maria Clara." When you read Rizal's novels or look at 19th century images of Filipinas in their ternos use this guide to decipher what they might be saying.
This now rare book is part of the University of Michigan Libraries Filipiniana collection.

STATEMENT
Mayor Benjamin Magalong
Baguio City
January 16, 2023

I express grave disappointment and dismay that a certain Lorraine Badoy, a certain "Ka Eric" and Pastor Apollo Carreon Quiboloy are destroying my reputation as a public servant by branding me as a "traitor" "a person of no principles" among other unfounded accusations, during their recent programs on SMNI.

This tirade against me is unfounded and baseless and has subjected my person to needless and undeserved condemnation.

My public life as a police officer is an open book. I take pride in having been schooled in the Philippine Military Academy, where values as a soldier have been honed to better use in my humble being in the course of my service to the country since 1982.

From that year to 2005, I staked my life fighting the CPP/NPA, leading my men not from the rear but up front in numerous operations. All these can readily be validated by the simple act of interviewing the men and women who served with me in the Philippine Constabulary.

when I was assigned in Abra and Benguet, in Agusan Norte Provincial Command and in the PNP Special Action Force.

I was the Chairman of the Regional Peace and Order Council as well as Vice Chairman of the Cordillera RTF-ELCAC from 2019 to 2022.

During my tenure, I have fully supported, without any mental reservation, the programs of the NTF- ELCAC. Through our collective efforts, the ELCAC program continues to succeed in the Cordillera, notably with stronger support from the local communities and better perception from the public.

As the Mayor of Baguio, I serve the city and its constituents to the best of my ability, competence, and with the same unflinching loyalty to the Republic of the Philippines.

notably with stronger support from the local communities and better perception from the public.

As the Mayor of Baguio, I serve the city and its constituents to the best of my ability, competence, and with the same unflinching loyalty to the Republic of the Philippines.

Youthful activism does not necessarily mean espousing a communist ideology.

To be accused that I have turned my back on my lifelong commitment against the CPP/NPA is a grave insult that sweeps aside my lengthy and loyal service to the Philippines.

If my actions as head of a local government are under question, let due process be sternly observed. By all means, take the necessary steps that I be sanctioned, in accordance with procedures in place, without having to be publicly scorned over a non-issue.

In relation to the above-mentioned personalities who have acquired the habit of incessantly defaming people without an iota of evidence, be reminded that NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.
