Takot ba sa Amerika ang China?

Ang India at China ay magkalapit na mga bansa at hindi nagkakasundo sa definition ng kanilang land border. Dahil dito ay nagkaroon sila ng mga skirmishes at naging dahilan ng kamatayan ng ilan nilang mga sundalo. Ilan sa nalathala ay ang mga sumusunod:

  • 1967 Nathu La and Cho La clashes – India repelled Chinese incursions in Sikkim.
  • 1987 Sino-Indian skirmish – A tense standoff in Arunachal Pradesh, but no full-scale war.
  • 2020 Galwan Valley clash – A deadly hand-to-hand combat incident in Ladakh, resulting in casualties on both sides.

And sitwasyon ng India at China ay mai-hahalintulad ng sitwasyon ng Pilipinas at sa pinag-aagawang mga isla sa south china sea na ang ilan ay napapaloob sa ating EEZ or WPS. Bakit hindi nangyayari ang mga katulad na skirmishes sa pagitan ng Pilipinas at China? Sa opinion ko ay dahil kahit papano ay umiilag ang China na magkaroon ng direct o kaya naman ay proxy war sa US. Isipi nalang natin na ang India ay may mas malakas na sandataha kumpara sa Pilipinas pero hindi nag-dalawang isip ang China na makipag-digma sa kanila. Subalit sa south china sea ay hindi ito ginagawa ng China. Isa pa rin na malaking hadlang sa pag-angkin ng China sa halos buong south china sea ang Amerika. 
Ang malakas na pakikipag-ugnayan sa US ay maituturing pa rin na deterrence sa arm conflict sa south china sea.

Microsoft Office365

Let's be honest about it. Apple office document apps sucks. Although, I am using Macbook 12-inch model as my personal laptop, I hate their office apps not because they are buggy or not user-friendly; but because of their limited adoption. Few people are using it (none of my friends and colleague uses it). I cannot use it in my work because people will curse me. There is only one instance where I used it, i.e. during our hackaton event. That's it.  As expected, like any office worker; I am a regular user of Microsoft Office, i.e. word, powerpoint and excel. I bought office365 since it is cheaper and you always get the latest version. I am using it for 2 years now and my license will end August of this year (August 08, 2018 to be exact). I bought my last 2 licenses from lazada.com.ph for less than 2,000 pesos. As I don't want to lose my access to onedrive.com and office apps; I bought a new 1 year license from lazada.com.ph for 1,499 pesos inclusive of the shippi...

Sana ibalik ang death penalty

  " Sana ibalik ang death penalty ". Yan ang kadalasan na comment tuwing may mga karumal-dumal na krimen. Akala mo sagot ang death penalty para mawala ang heinous crime sa Pilipinas.  I hope na silakbo lang ng damdamin ang pagsasabi nila na ibalik ang death penalty at hindi dulot ng katangahan. Alam naman natin na baboy ang justice system sa Pinas at kadalasan ay mga mahihirap ang nagsa-suffer sa maling pagpapatupad ng batas. Kaya nga kadalasan ay makakarinig o makakabasa tayo ng - "kung mahirap, kulong na yan". Baka sa huli makarinig na rin tayo ng - "kung mahirap, nabitay na yan". Ang death penalty ay hindi effective deterrence sa krimen. May mga states sa US na may death penalty pero patuloy pa rin ang mga karumal-dumal na krimen. Ang death penalty ay isa lamang tool ng government para legal na pumatay ng tao - pero kailangan pa ba ito kung kabi-kabila naman ang patayan at extra-judicial killings sa Pinas? Baka naman pwede na sabihin "nanlaban...

A Leader Redefining India

Narendra Modi, India’s 14th Prime Minister, is a figure who evokes both admiration and debate. Born in a small town in Gujarat, Modi’s journey from a tea-seller to the helm of the world’s largest democracy is a testament to his resilience and ambition. Since taking office in 2014, he has emerged as a transformative leader, steering India toward economic growth, technological advancement, and global prominence. Modi’s governance is marked by bold initiatives. The  Swachh Bharat  (Clean India) campaign aimed to improve sanitation, while  Demonetization  sought to curb corruption, albeit with mixed results. His push for  Digital India  has revolutionized the country’s tech infrastructure, bringing millions online and fostering innovation. The  GST  reform unified India’s complex tax system, streamlining business operations. On the global stage, Modi has elevated India’s standing. His diplomatic outreach, from the  Quad Alliance  to hosting ...
