To be a journalist is to be a fearless and incisive "inquirer" that dares to "chronicle" history without fear or favor;

To be a journalist is to act like a "tribune" that essays the truthful "journal" of every story of our "times", big or small, front page or inside page, "BIG NEWS" or even the last story before the closing credits roll;

To be a journalist is to hold a "mirror" in front of you to regularly and faithfully check the convictions and principles of what a "free press" truly stands for;

To be a journalist is to sometimes embrace your own celebrity and be a "star" that sets and upholds the "standards" of what the Filipinos of " today " are fighting for;

Ang maging mamamahayag ay tulad ng isang "bulgar" na pahina na hindi puwedeng maging sisidlan ng anumang pagbaluktot sa katotohanan, bagkus siya pa ngang lagusan upang ito ay mai-"bandera" at mai-"balita" ang mga kuwentong dapat na marining at ma-"tiktikan."

Ang maging mamamahayag ay ang pagsisiguro ng pananatili at pagsulong ng isang "malaya" at walang kinikilingang pag-"PAPATROL" , sa bawat araw, "24-0ras" dahil ang bawat kuwento ay kailangang pulsuhan, may buhay, tila isang "NEWSBEAT" na kailangang ma-"CAPTURED" dahil walang take two sa isang breaking news, walang cut, walang re-take;

Ang maging mamamahayag ay maging "SAKSI" sa "SENTRO" ng bawat pahina ng kasaysayan upang ito ang mai-"BANDILA" sa sambayanan;

Ang maging mamamahayag ay DAPAT laging sa NGALAN NG KATOTOHANAN AT TUNAY NA PAGLILINGKOD.




FIRST TIME IN BEIJING…

September 17, 2007

 

 YES—-I JUST ARRIVED FROM A VERY SHORT TRIP FROM BEIJING, CHINA. MY FIRST.

Ang daming puwedeng pagkuhanan ng picture pero hindi na nagawa iyon dahil I was not there on a pleasure trip po kundi work and I guess you guys have an idea what I discovered related to the recent headlines here in the Philippines involving the controversial National Broadband Deal with ZTE Corporation.

Nope–I was not really there to probe the NBN story. I was there for another business story but the exclusive opportunity to hear and interview the Vice Governor of the China Development Bank, more like an equivalent of our Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas here led me to probable answers as to what could have happened and if there was indeed an anomaly, a kickback as reported, why and how?

But I will have to suspence the details muna. He-he.

Kasi ayoko namang i-pre-empt ang isusulat kong article related to that na read between the lines—yun ang sagot kung bakit gusto nila ang ZTE. It's not that it's illegal. That much I find out. But why through that process? Why through a loan grant? Naroon ang sagot.

Eto munang picture ko sa isang streets nila doon near the hotel where I stayed ang pagtiyagaan ninyo.He-he. Di rin ako nakapag-shopping….kahit last minute. Yang supot na hawak ko—-damit na pang-Chinese for my two angels. Kasi kung wala yan—naku—-baka awayin ako ng dalawang tunay kong pinakamamahal-My Katrina and my Dominique.

Suspense muna ha…patience is a virtue..he-he…(wakas)
