Despair as China executes three Filipinos

I was on a flight to Singapore a few years ago when a Philipino married couple with two small childred asked if i could take one of their bags with me as they had excess baggage and no money. I only had hand carried and politely refused as they were not willing to open the bag for my inspection. Another foreigner in the que said he would take it for them as was also on business and only had hand carry baggage.. To make a long story short when we landed in Singapore there was a load of Ghurka's with Uzi's standing around the baggage pick up carrosell. The foreigner picked up the bag he was given to carry and was imediately arrested. a week or so later he was charged with drug trafficing even though he claimed the bag was not his. But since the baggage tag number was on his ticket he was found guilty. He was lucky and only got "Life" I find it hard to believe that the 3 Filipono's in China did not know what they were carrying. Just trying to make a fast buck as is seen so often here..

Who is to blame? Pnoy?, I don't think so - the catholic church is quick to point fingers, it is them who should be blamed. Pnoy has been president for less than a year, the guy hardly had anything to do with this people. The catholic priest on the other hand have been with this people since their baptism, first communion, first confession and since then I'm sure this people go to church. What values was formed? I don't hate the catholic church but for them to meddle in politics? It's not their job, that is why there is separation between the church and the state. Think guys!!!

I could hardly understand you people. Everytime sometihng goes wrong, especially with this kind of wrongdoings of our fellow Filipino,we have to blame the goverment, the president, so and so. Why don't you blame them for their own misdeeds. People like you must be idiots.

to Matthew: congratulations for being the dumbest person on earth @#$%' fagot! learn first how to express yourself in a better way.. if not, then shut the @#$% up @#$%! what do you know about leadership? have you been a leader? i bet if you are, then you are just a bunch of @#$%!!!

you are one of the few who are leech and @#$% who do not have enough talent but to blame the government... why don't you do your part as a good citizen who might help your government than putting a blame to them??? you @#$%' @#$%!!!

why should the philippines be in despair? shall the people condone the menace of drug trafficking? dapat lang na bitayin silang 3 dahil mga drug traffickers sila. at dapat, isinama na rin si ronald singson para pantay pantay ang implementation ng batas. salot sila sa lipunan. dapat lang na bitayin sila para hindi na pamarisan. the filipino people are very happy of this verdict. ubusin lahat na mga salot na drug dealers!!!!!!

These people were criminals and caught in the possession of drugs that would cause misery to many chinese families. You Filipino's make martyrs of them. What right have you to expect different treatment to all other nationals caught in China. Whether they were duped or not, everyone knows not to take anothers baggage. You cry over these three yet there are another 200 waiting in China for sentence. Better you cry for your nation that allows army generals to take your money and all the other corrupt elites. Better you cry for the millions who live in poverty, and the children who sleep on the ground in Manila while the rich drive past. Nepotism rules in appointment to good jobs and wealth making your departments ineffective. The Lacson case shows that all the departments are useless and not fit for purpose. Get a grip of the Millions of tour people who are on Shabu, and stop weeping for those who break another countries laws.

kaya ang madalas na sinasabi wag na wag kayo tatangap ng mga nakikipadala ng bagahe... tiisin nyo na putang inang utang na loob yan ipapahamak ka nyan.. ipadala nalang kamo nila sa LBC.FEDEX,EMS,2GO,DHL. yan ang dapat mag dala ng mga package na hindi sa iyo...Tandaan Nyo mg Ungas....

The Catholic Church said the government did not do anything they can to stop the execution. So what should have the government done? It's not our law in concern. It's not our territory and society violated...it's the Chinese government's. Sa atin kasi ang unfortunate party pero HINDI IBIG SABIHIN NUN DEHADO TAYO. Like I said and as we ALL KNOW, there was a violation. And according to the ruler party over that territory, the act deserved death.

We do not like what happened to our Kababayans. I myself feel very depressed over the event. Pero hindi pwedeng pasunurin natin lahat ng ibang bansa sa standard natin dahil kung ganun, lahat ng bansa maghihirap. Ever wondered why other countries especially China goes way up high year by year while we Filipinos go down the slope without breaks? Sorry to disappoint you but it's not the government to blame here. It's our culture.

Remember mamaya na, bahala na, utak talangka, chismis cultures among others? We are all emotional at this time but let us please maintain a clear and fair mind. Hindi porket tayo ang nasa downside, tayo na ang laging api. Ask first why we are at this end.

P.S. Wag masyadong magalit sa mga intsik at walang matitirang kayamanan satin kung aalis sila lahat. Kawawa tayo. Tsk tsk tsk.

It is about crime and punishment. Masyado tayong emotional. In China, the policy for serious crime is 'kill one (criminal) and teach a thousand'. In the Phils, it is 'free one (criminal) and teach a thousand (to commit more crimes)'. Our attention and emotion should be on the 57 innocent filipinos massacred by filipinos out of political greed. The Ampatuans are still smiling.

kaya kayong andiyan sa pinas at nagsasabi nakakaawa sila ang sagot ay hindi! ang nakakaawa ay ang pamilya ng mga taong binebentahan nila ng droga! yun ang tunay na biktima!

yan matuto na kayong mga drug mule,,ang lalakas ng loob nyo magdala ng droga sa ibang bansa pag nahuli at ma sentensyahan ng kamatayan,, sisisihin nyo gobyerno kesyo walang nagawa,,kung di ba bobo ang nag comment nun, kaya dito sa pinas ang dame gusto gumamit at mag benta ng droga dahil walang death sentence at pwede pa mag bail or maka pagpiyansa.. kaya tama lang ang ginawa ng china para matigil na ang kagaguhan ng ibang mga kababayan natin na mag pagamit dahil sa pera lang .. i dont weant to disrespect anyone kaso this is the palin and simple truth.. dont blame china or Pnoy, put the freaking blame on this people who did this to themselves..

I have come along some posts of which were "challenging" the Holy CHURCH People and the Vigilant Human Rights Group to run the government since they keep on meddling with the government affairs,coming to a point influencing our Law Makers...I was shocked at the same amused..wow..AWESOME..
In jest and exaggerated humor,I would wish to share to you my disagreement...."Giving the IDEA (encouragment..hehe) to the HOLY Priests and the BRAVE and HONORABLE HUMAN RIGHTS GROUPS...
"kindly let me discuss this "matter"...please for the sake of being "awake",sane, and logical,do not suggest that these HOLY GROUP of people run our government..baka they would use this idea to rally for some government position/s...or even the presidency..sigurado yan,,kakagatin nila ito hehehehe..naloka na tayo..kung magiging matagumpay itong mga "banal",baka palitan nila ang karamihan ng mga batas natin na tuwing may trahedya,kailangang ituwid,important projects,diplomatic issues,etc..ay DASAL sa ROSARY ang igawad..naloko na lalo...ang hindi magdarasal ay ikukulong ng habang buhay..hahahahahahahaha..
Sa mga Human Rights(daw) Group....baka rapists,magnanakaw,mamatay tao at mga drug pushers ang kanila na lang ipagtatanggol....ang mga pulis at sundalong huhuli sa mga masasamang loob ay siya pang kakasuhan at maikulong ng habang buhay.....bakit???...kasi "niyurakan" nila ang KARAPATANG PANGTAO ng kanilang sinita o hinuli,o kaya,bini----an ng black eye iyong hinuhuli nila...(hus,,,para lang pinagpapalo ng kahoy at basag na bote yung pulis,eh,nam-blackeye na si mamang pulis!!!...ito namang si sundalo binaril nya ng WATER HOSE 'yung aktibista(??!!)..... hinigasin lang naman sya ng pillbox sa ulo at nasunog ang mukha,eh,ginantihan kaagad niya ang kawawang aktibista...)....o ano gusto ba ninyo ito....??
..this is a satire kind of suggestion....my objective here is to have ourselves distinguish true logic/reality from our highly reverend developed emotions of "LOVE" ...
...The way I see it(hope you, at least would give a "nod") we'd be able to give more "LOVE" and equal respect when we abide to our laws as defined by our constitution,and refrain from changing practical and realistic laws(...change these laws because the Church and Human Rights Group vehemently dislike it),,,,,example:DEATH PENALY-removed....
..apparently,there have been no strong and applicable alternative/s for the deleted "unpopular laws(sabi ng mga pari at human rights na grupo) to curb and at least minimize crimes we call HEINOUS....ang magtulak ng droga ok,kung hindi mahuhuli,kung mahuli dito sa atin, kulong lang,pinakamabigat ay habang buhay sa sa aircondtioned room pa..hehehe..pero kung mahuli sa ibang bansa at mahatulan ng bitay sila,,,,nandyan ang mga pari para magbindisyon sa mga ibibitay,pagkatapos,,,,by law(kung magiging opisyal ng bayan ang mga banal),kailangan punuin ng tao ang Luneta,Ayala Avenue,EDSA para sa prayer rally...kung hindi...ang hindi pupunta ay maikukulong at hindi na makakapag kumunyon habang buhay.....o,ok ba sa inyo iyo,ha???
I hope this ridiculous post of mine would open up the minds(..hhmm maybe not all) of our kababayans who have posted similar ridiculous and hilarious but bad to the taste comments like "..sana si Noynoy na lang ang ipinalit sa mga nabitay(wow...uhhgg)/kailangan gantihan natin ang mga intsik(..bakit?)/kailangan i-boycot ang lahat ng mga itinitinda ng mga intsik sa Divisoria(..nanay ko po)/..dapat naglumuhod ang presidente ng Pilipinas sa China...(WHAT?!!)/..China can show the world and be proud by making a big difference today..:spare the mules(ngek!! nang-uuto pa)/..oh a lot more..
..time for a REAL change????(hindi lang lip service)
..I am not suggesting or persuading our kababayans to turn their back to GOD...NO!
but I am insinuating that we have to be more practical and realistic in our thoughts and daily life processes.."huwag ipasaalang- alang sa Diyos ang mga susunod na man----ayari"..WOW!

China had done their part,when can we do ours??

Chinese are arrogant and always put themselves as higher individual. They looked Filipinos as slaves with no use at all.... Its time to act on this situation. They should take consequences of their actions.. They pry on us (Filipinos)... these will be remembered.

Our government should also impose dealth penalty for chinese nationals caught on having a worse scenarios of putting up their own drug laboratories in our country!

To HUKSRULE hindi po ako chinese pero sa comment mo parang @#$% ka at wlang pnag aralan wag pairalin ang damdamin BATAS NG CHINA YAN sorry for us pag nkahuli tau sa pinas ng droga pilipino man o foreigner wlang bitay yan ang batas ng pinas eh malambot.And one more thing 2008 pa po cila nhuli tanong k sau cinong nsa pwesto ng pnahon na yan anong ginawa nila at anong ginagwa ng mga cbcp na ngawa ng ngawa at mga ilang NGO wla db then blame the president bullshit.kailngan natin matigas na presidente at ng batas ang hirap kaci stin laging nki2alam ang simbahang katoliko bakit ung ibang religion hindi nman.bi----an kita ng idea sa tingin m pag may nhuli stin na mga pusher at meron taung death penalty di bitayin din yes hindi yan mwa2la ung pero mli2mithan yan at mta2kot angmga drug dealer and pusher kng may parusa taung bitay d lang china ang may batas na ganyan ngkataon lang sa china cila nhuli gets m.

a very easy political equation, this is a result of an international propaganda of what are the true state of relationship between countries...

nailabas ba sa media na may mga bibitaying Filipino before the Mendoza amok who killed chinese tourist?/ di ba walang kaalam-alam ang mga Pinoy na sentenced na pala ung mga kababayan natin...

in short, Chinese government is sending a very strong message to our deeply wounded government - that Chinese will prove to be the Giant Tiger in Asia and that their position should be really looked up to...

Now i hope that Philippine government will sweep all illegal Chinese businessmen and drug traffickers living in the corrupt shadows of TRAPOS in our government and at least execute them and let the world know that we are also serious in battling crimes- starting within our own territories...

isa akong OFW, masasabi ko lang na sana itigil na ninyo ang mga utak talangka ninyo! firm ang batas sa overseas! kaya wag nyo ng pairalin ang mga exemtion dahl ndi uso yan sa ibang bansa! puros pakiusap ang alam natin kaya bulok ang sistema! i highly respect the law of many countries! kelangan talagang tumino kpg nasa ibang bansa!! nasanay sa walang disiplina kung kaya't pati ang presidente natin ay ndi ginagalang! lahat na lang na naging presidente natin ay may reklamo kayo!!! CHANGING FOR BETTERMENT STARTS W/IN OURSELVES!!!

My deepest and sincerest condolences to the families of the executed Filipinos.
I too am a Filipino and I understand that the family culture in the Philippines is very deeply rooted in every Filipino. Thats why we are affected by this so much.
But the law is the law. We must also respect the laws of other countries. We should not let our emotions flare up and say things that we couldn't take back.
The Philippines has an ideal law system at hindi ko alam kung ano ang dahilan kung bakit hindi ito naipapatupad ng maayos. Magaganda ang mga batas natin, kaso pwede lang ikutan ng mga taong may pera. Kung kaya nating IMPLEMENT NG MAAYOS mga batas natin, sa sarili nating bansa, bubuti ang buhay doon.
Marahil tama na nga, na sa panahon ngayon na ang mga drug pushers at manufacturers ay naikukulong lang o na bibi----an ng pardon at minsan na ay napapawalang sala pa, dapat ibalik na rin natin ang DEATH PENALTY sa bansa natin. If it would deter lawless elements, FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC, then, so be it. Kung iisipin naman natin, yung mga kriminal na gumawa ng heinous crimes ay may sinira din na karapatan ng ibang tao at buhay ng ibang tao. In effect, they have forfeited their own rights, after all drug pushing is a heinous crime.
This should be a lesson for all of us. Huwag na tayong magsisihan, tapos na. Pero huwag din nating kalimutan ang nan----ari. We should not let the lives of our compatriots be a waste. Time to wake up and do something about it.

I really feel sorry for the three Filipino's who got executed today, regardless of reason's why they got involved in such a transaction with an offer of money in dollars, they perhaps couldn't refuse.
But it is so unfair to blame it on President Aquino. I am sure that he tried his best, that's why he sent VP Binay to China to appeal. Let us not forget that each neighboring country has their own "Rule of Law" just as we do, the difference is that their law is "none negotiable". Unlike our Law money talks, so why blame the this tragedy on PNoy? He didn't tell those guys to be mules. We are very well aware, that anywhere one goes, getting involved in drugs is a real no no, so c'mon, they should ready for the blessing/consequences of their action. Like they say, "don't do the crime, if you can't do the time". I just pray that the women who sacrificed their life for a better future for her children, the guardians spend & use up the money to better the children by giving them a good education so they will not suffer the same fate as their parents. If you want to make a difference, help the children, set up a foundation...just an idea......

dapat kasi lahat ng nahuhuling nagbebenta ng droga gumagawa ng droga nagpupuslit ng droga dapat kasi ang patawan ng death penalty para di na tularan bakit tanungin nga ang mga pro life yung mga nagbebenta ng droga pinapatay rin naman nila ang ang pinagbebentahan nila makatarungan ba yun dapat ibalik din dito sa pinas ang death penalty para wala ng maglakas loob na mga dayuhan na magbenta at gumawa ng droga dito sa pinas pero bakit nga ba eh madami rin nasa puwesto ang humahawak at nagproprotekta dyan diba useless din kaya di bale na lang let's pray na lang sa 3 nating kababayan na naging biktima dahil mahirap sila ng mga walang pusong mga tao at pagmamahal sa kapwa................
