Rodrigo Roa Duterte King Dome Soon To Open!

Move over, Philippine Area. Davao City will soon be the site of the world’s largest indoor arena — the Kingdom of Jesus Christ’s King Dome!

The 75,000 arena trashes the earlier world-record holder, Iglesia Ni Cristo’s 55,000-seat Philippine Area in Bulacan.

Now that former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte has been designated as administrator of KJC finances and assets, our fly on the wall tells us that when the arena opens its doors for a Taylor Swift concert, it will be named Rodrigo Roa Duterte King Dome.

A true legacy for the former president and Pastor Apollo Quiboloy’s KJC! Long live the King!

An Ode To Spaghetti Electric Wires

In the land where wires dance a tangled waltz,

Above the streets, they twist and vault.

Philippines, oh land of the spaghetti fray,

Where wires run wild, with no dismay.

While the world moves towards a greener way,

With electric cars to save the day,

Here, the wires hang, a chaotic maze,

A symbol of our prolonged daze.

While the US dreams of an electric fleet,

We grapple still with wires concrete.

How many generations must endure,

This aerial jungle, obscure?

Oh, Philippines, land of puzzling wires,

Entangled still in electric quires.

As other nations progress and soar,

We’re left pondering, what’s the score?

Till when shall we dance this tangled spree,

Till when shall our skyline be free?

As the world moves forward, we lag behind,

Entwined in wires of a bygone kind.

Renaming NAIA Is Not Up To SMC’s Ramon Ang

In the theater of Philippine politics, where ego and power intertwine, we find Joseph Morong reporting on the curious case of Ramon Ang, head of San Miguel Corporation, and his stance on the renaming of NAIA to MIA. As SMC wins the bid to oversee operations, Ang’s opposition to the change raises eyebrows. If only he diverted some of his attention from boardrooms to social media, he might sense the overwhelming public outcry to strip NAIA of its pseudo-heroic facade. However, amidst this melodrama, a glimmer of hope emerges: Ang acknowledges the limits of his influence. For once, a titan of industry concedes that the fate of a national landmark lies not in his hands, but in the realm of law. So let us watch with bated breath as the saga unfolds, and perhaps, just perhaps, reason might prevail over ego.
