Atty. Vic Rodriguez: Theft Of Government Property?

Oh, the great scandal of our times: Atty. Vic Rodriguez, once the face of Bongbong Marcos’ campaign, might have committed the unthinkable—keeping a government-owned banner and a license plate!

Imagine the audacity! While common sense insists that employees return company property upon departure, can we really blame Rodriguez for wanting mementos from his short-lived tenure? After all, who wouldn’t cherish such prestigious relics? Surely, a banner and a plate are worth a thousand memories!

Forget corruption and misuse of public funds; this is the real issue that should grip the nation. Legal proceedings for this heinous act could set a new precedent: no souvenir shall be left unreturned.

Justice must prevail, lest our country plunge into anarchy where former officials freely display obsolete government decor at book launches.

For Filipinos, Visa-Free Travel To Canada With A Catch

Canada’s magnanimous gesture to the citizens of the Philippines and 12 other fortunate nations is a testament to its reputation for politeness.

The announcement sounds like a golden ticket to the Great White North, but alas, there’s a twist. While Filipino passport holders can theoretically waltz into Canada visa-free for up to six months, there’s a prerequisite worthy of a Kafka novel: eligibility requires a past Canadian visa or a current U.S. non-immigrant visa.

In other words, Canada is welcoming those who have already been vetted by the bureaucratic labyrinths of North American immigration systems.

So, before packing your bags for a maple syrup-laden adventure, ensure your paperwork has been previously stamped by Canadian or U.S. Immigration. It’s a heartwarming example of international camaraderie, with a sprinkle of bureaucratic hoop-jumping to keep things interesting.
