Thoughts to guide us by

If you have seen the film, My Name is Khan, there is the sweeping comparison  to which I felt regarding the law which has been recently passed and signed into law, Republic Act 10175 otherwise named as the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 which has draw flak from among netizens in the Philippines and other human rights groups. As a blogger, I would lay down my cards in 5 reasons why I vehemently opposed it and categorically state, like the character Mr. Khan, which I am proud to say that my name is Doc Wends and I am not a cyber-terrorist!

Plagiarism, Dr. Jose?

This country will never learn, Dr. Jose. I would love to share my own observations, perhaps, rant to you about what has become of us since you left.

Dr. Jose, since when is plagiarism becomes a norm even to your days? Were your works plagiarized by the Spaniards or did you ever plagiarized? It was harder to understand your Noli Me Tangere and I doubt if you plagiarized it like most people nowadays do. Is it really acceptable to plagiarized Dr. Jose?

Dear Dr. Jose,

I write this to share my insights on how democracy in this country is and was since you left us in 1896. I would, as much as I could, abreast you with what has been going on since I was born into this republic you have sacrificed so much to be free.
