Sisa Mausisa: ACCESS TO "JUSTICE" NOT "JUST TIIS"
http://mausisa.blogspot.com/2012/06/access-to-justice-not-just-tiis.html
Seeking clarity of mind and strength of conviction in an apparent world of chaos and madness. Monday, June 11, 2012. ACCESS TO "JUSTICE" NOT "JUST TIIS". The issue of lack of access to justice by the poor and vulnerable communities in the Philippines has shown its ugly face to me when I visited Marinduque a week ago. I accompanied a lawyer friend who was handling one of the cases (torts and damages) filed by a local community against Marcopper Mining Corporation. The reason for the delay? To Cawit Port i...

PolitEkon: Megyn Kelly Now Feels The Heat
http://politekon.blogspot.com/2015/08/megyn-kelly-now-feels-heat.html
Megyn Kelly Now Feels The Heat. It seems clear that Megyn Kelly never saw it coming. In front of national audience, Kelly showed everyone that she was was more focused on personal issues than things more relevant to a Presidential candidate during the prime time GOP debate. Glenn Reynolds said Fox News was the loser and added: "I was particularly disappointed with the ridiculous 'gotcha! He was far from alone in that assessment. Donald Trump also weighed in on Twitter, expressing his disappointment with ...

PolitEkon: Law Bans Children on Motorbikes
http://politekon.blogspot.com/2015/08/law-bans-children-on-motorbikes.html
Law Bans Children on Motorbikes. Good news for Filipino children: they are now barred from riding motorcycles along national and provincial highways. President Aquino has signed into law Republic Act 10666, the Children’s Safety on Motorcycles Act of 2015, which is a consolidation of Senate Bill 2488 and House of Representatives Bill 4462. The prohibition would not also apply in cases of emergency, such as when the child to be transported requires immediate medical attention. Violators will be fined PhP ...

PolitEkon: Philippines' Anti-Child Labor Law
http://politekon.blogspot.com/2011/04/philippines-anti-child-labor-law.html
Philippines' Anti-Child Labor Law. Republic Act 9231 or "The Anti Child Labor Law" was signed into law on 19 December 2003. The passage of this new measure makes the Philippines the first country to present model legislation reflective of the widely ratified International Labor Organization Convention 182 on the Worst Forms of Child Labor. About 143 governments or 80 percent of the international community have already ratified ILO Convention 182 in a span of three years. The law also states that children...

PolitEkon: Toys Exclusive For Boys from SDCC 2015
http://politekon.blogspot.com/2015/08/toys-exclusive-for-boys-from-sdcc-2015.html
Toys Exclusive For Boys from SDCC 2015. During the San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) last July, toy companies released several exclusive items male fans can get their hands on at the show. Thousands of boys and men lined the halls of San Diego’s convention center to try their luck at scoring their favorite toys exclusively made for them. From choking hazard Ant-Mans to talking George RR Martins (we hope he just recites the names of the characters who die in the books), to a plethora of Funko Pop! He’s in ...

Sisa Mausisa: March 2012
http://mausisa.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Seeking clarity of mind and strength of conviction in an apparent world of chaos and madness. Monday, March 26, 2012. One Step Forward, Two Steps Back. At a time when the country is supposed to be celebrating Filipino women and women all over the world, I was surprised to read an opinion posted by one of my Facebook friends about a consolidated enrolled bill pending in the office of the President - - waiting for Presidential approval, veto or inaction. What is the purpose of the law? To me, the law is a ...

Sisa Mausisa: April 2012
http://mausisa.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Seeking clarity of mind and strength of conviction in an apparent world of chaos and madness. Monday, April 2, 2012. BFFs: Aling Tonya's and Mother Earth. Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour? This question might be familiar to some of us. Jesus said this when he prayed at the garden of Gethsemane a few hours prior to his arrest but, if Mother Nature could talk, this could also be the sentence she would have uttered last Saturday during Earth Hour. I was at Aling Tonya's. And then I ate.
