Cool vid. It's got 3M views in just less than 2 months. The best part of it, no 'proud' Filipino comments. If you know what I mean.

Amazing, strong video. Believe it or not the moment the kid died, his friend was doing a "suicide" flip.

Grabe yung mga mga riverside squatters jan sa coastal road. Kapal ng mukha talaga kung sino man ang Mayor jan sa Paranaque!

Squatters should at least keep their surroundings clean if they can't afford to build decent homes.

The 30+ year old slum in Calbayog Mandaluyong just behind California Garden Square is still there. Raw sewage run-off is going down the lower streets of Bulusan and Antipolo. A lot of criminal activity in Barangay Highway Hills and commercial establishments along EDSA can be traced to criminals staying in this particular slum area. The bad news is, several barangay watchmen (tanod) of Highway Hills live in this particular slum area too.

To strengthen its claim, the Philippine government should look into relocating squatters to the disputed West Sea Islands...the settlers could make a living fishing around the area and working on natural gas and oil rigs

Dadami ang kalat sa Pag-asa Island pag narelocate ang mga squatters.

Candidates are courting the slum dwellers this campaign period. The incumbents are practically hosting street parties for them every weekend nights closing down entire roads and redirecting traffic.

Just gun down the traditional politicians they are the real culprit on promoting illegal settling in our country.

Sorry for sounding naive, but do informal settlers have to register to vote? Is there a law requiring voters to have a mailing address?
I really don't know the whole voting process so any of your expertise is a big help. Thanks!

own opinion ko lng to ah. Naiinis tlga ako sa iba sa kanilang mga IS kase tulad dito, nakatira ako sa isang subdivision sa Pasig tapos sa likod namin estero tas may mga iskwater since 2005 pa to nung lumipat kami, wala pa reng pagbabago, nabaha na sila lahat lahat, ayaw pa ren nilang umalis. Inofferan sila ng isang relocation, tumanggi sila kase sa knila daw ung lupa. HBANG TUMATAGAL, DUMADAMI SILA. sana magawan to ng paraan.

May tindahan kami dito tas dito sila bumbili, alam niyo bang ang lagi nilang binibili puro sigarilyo at alak. inuubos nila ang pera nila sa alak. kung iniipon nila un, pede silang mag business kahit maliit lng. Tas pag nagbabantay ako sa tindhan namin, grabe, bibili na lng magmumura at sisigaw pa. Lets face the fact na HINDI LAHAT NG MAHIRAP BIKTIMA, HINDI DAPAT SILA KINUKUNSINTE AT LALONG DAPAT HINDI KAAWAAN, dahil sa mga ginagawa naten nd sila natuto at umaasa na lng sa gobyerno. tas magagalit sila pag mahirap sila pero sila naman ang nag aaksaya ng pera sa alak although pinagsabihan nanamin sila na wag na bumili kase wala na ngang trabaho, lasenggo pa.tas meron ako ditong nakilalang IS, 6 ang anak, natalo pa kami na 2 lng kaming magkapatid kahit maginahawa ang buhay namin. Hay naku, dahil tlga sa MEDIA, ang tingin naten sa mga mahihirap laging tama, sila ang biktima at ang mga mayayaman ang masasama Sana mabago tong mga paniniwala na to. nakakaasar na kase.

Oo, merong ibang deserving tlagang yumaman kase kayod ng kayod pero konti na lng tlga.
FACEPALM NA LNG!

Notice the absence of sea mines aka 'trash' in the sea. But still a slum though.
