President Noynoy recently stormed PAGASA office in Quezon City during a protest rally by PAGASA weathermen regarding their suspended allowances provided for by the Magna Carta of PAGASA workers.
Typical of the Rambo movies where the hero would kick the door and blast his enemy to smithereens, Pnoy aka ENGOT, arrived at the same office to confront the brewing maelstrom.
When interviewed, PAGASA employees intimated the release of their overdue and delayed allowances under the said law. “Gusto lang namin na maimplement yung Republic Act 8439,” PAGASA
Weathermen Employees Association President Ramon Agustin said in a phone
interview with GMA News Online.
In the Magna Carta for
Scientists or Republic Act No. 8439, PAGASA weather forecasters are
entitled to hazard allowances from 10 to 30 percent of their basic
monthly salary.
However, Agustin said that the government has been slow to implement the law.
“’Yung mga tao, ‘yun na lang ‘yung inaasahan. ‘Yun na lang ‘yung source
ng pampaaral nila, ng pang-araw-araw nila, ng pagkain nila,” said

Being obnoxious as he is, our King suddenly arrived at the PAGASA office in Quezon City but only to browbeat the same hardworking employees into doing their jobs instead of airing their legitimate grievances.
Instead of offering assurances, the President and King-at-large Abnoy gave them a moral dressing down.
What a pity. Kawawang mga empleyado.
This is what Abnoy had allegedly said during the occasion:" At 5:23 p.m., Aquino talked to reporters and explained the need to rationalize the government's benefit system.
He said the government would not have any problem with providing
Pagasa employees with longevity pay and laundry allowance. But not
everybody should be given hazard pay. He said only those in hazardous
jobs should be entitled to it.
"Naghahanap tayo ng fair...Sa longevity..laundry...wala tayong isssue doon. Iyong sa hazard pay, we have to give it rhyme and reason," said Aquino."
"Something na hindi magkakaroon ng ripple effect, na di madidistort 'yong ating benefits system," he added.

Aw, c'mon Noy, you could have just as easily given them emergency allowances fom your PSF or the Presidential Social Fund or from your own Intelligence Fund amounting to trillions of pesos. Kung nakapagbigay ka nga ng 5 million pesos sa MILF o 30 million pesos sa Alex Boncayao Brigade, or even 1 Billion dollar loan sa IMF, a few hundred thousand pesos lang para sa ating mga all-weather colleagues hindi mo pa maibigay?
Now, what kind of Dog are you?
Now that is the problem by having HACENDERO-TYPES as our elected leaders. Yung mind-set nila is different from the ordinary SLUMDOG-TYPES of millionaires.
Haciendero-types or what you call OLIGARCHS are SLAVE-DRIVERS. They are no different from the White men in America who whip, torture, lash and shame their negro slaves before the emancipation.
Many of our political leaders are Oligarchs. Aquinos, Cojuangcos, Aranetas, Romualdezes, Lopezes, Yuchengcos, Rosarios and a host of other MAKATI Boy network-types.
These people do not only want your labor and property, they also want your souls.
Oligarchs are people who want to impose more work for less income. They want you to crawl.
I remember a friend of mine who worked but left Senator Mar Roxas's Senatorial Office way back in the early 2000. I asked him why he left. He told me that while he salutes Mar for his intelligence, his professional management is HACIENDERO-TYPE. Sabi niya, "pare, slave driver si Mar. Ngayon ko lang nakita na ganun pala ugali niya. Pare, mararamdaman ko kapag andun ka sa kanya nagtrabaho. Oligarch talaga."
My friend along with a few staff members filed their resignations.
