I actually missed watching the show. And for those of you who weren’t able to watch it, here’s a copy of the interview. The second part is of course the one below. Read more…

An unsolicited advise came from former president FVR to incoming president NoyNoy Aquino I just read in ABS-CBN’s news website that the former president just advised Noynoy to ditch his smoking habit. I was just baffled that such a statement came from no less than the tobacco fanatic FVR. Personally, I don’t really care if the incoming president is a smoker. After all, we’ve had a president who is a gambler and womanizer and well other government officials who’s much much worse. My only concern is Noy’s health given the long list of health risks that comes with smoking. Perhaps later on when Mr. Aquino is finally sworn president, it would best for his staff to always be ready with sophisticated medical equipments (like a spirometer) whenever the president is travelling.

We were in a cab earlier this evening when I heard the news that the Bureau of Internal Revenue is thinking of taxing CNN Hero of 2009 Efren Penaflorida for the prize money he got. That is totally absurd!

These BIR people are just downright lazy. Instead of going after tax evaders, I’m sure there’s a lot of them- big and influential people at that; instead of vigilantly enforcing the tax laws on these people, they’d rather go after an honest man, whose prize money is something he wanted to use for the sole purpose of improving his company which aims to provide quality education to street children; aside from donating 10% to charity. But our sorry government wont have none of that. I just hope there’d be a lot of people to contest this move and knock some sense into these BIR officials who thought of doing something as heartless as this.
