Communications these days have become toxic. With so many fake news in the air and many netizens are always in a hurry and do not even bother to check, confusion becomes normal.
This reminds me of a very excited first-time father who called for an ambulance service.
“Come quickly, very quick please. My wife is about to have a baby.”
Operator:
“Is this her first baby?”
Father:
“This is her husband. You idiot!”

Wife:
‘We’re not having any more kids after this third.”
Husband:
“Why, I thought you wanted four kids.”
Wife:
“I’ve changed mind. I heard from reports that every fourth child born in the world today is a Chinese.”

Sustained inflation jump trigger hikes in key policy rates, the BSP reports.
The government is using cost of money as a big tool to tame inflation.
There is something fishy in this solution. Inflation is measured as cost of living.
Increasing cost of money, results in jump in cost of everything.
So is increasing cost of money, a solution to contain inflation?

BBM orders full digitalization in government service. Employees in money-making agencies, meanwhile, are working overtime to avoid digitalization.
I hear, in a DOF agency, honey has become a tool to sabotage computerization.
Cables in computers are coated with honey to attract rats that chew up the cables, disabling systems.
For every problem, there is a solution and Filipino are very creative. To the corrupt workers in the agency, computerization was a problem and the honey was the solution.
