Sarcasm Can Kill Dirty Politics: The Witty Moments of Juana Change

I don't know when did I start liking and patronizing this chubby lady who always punch dirty politics with her witty punchlines. I always saw her before in some TV shows or movies, portraying as landlady or jewelry seller. But now, she stands in front of the spotlight and millions of Filipinos as a woman of strength but with humor aside.

Juana Change is now a rising icon in Philippine society. She uses the power of media, creativity, and real-life comedy acts to break the silence of the Filipino people against some people in the government. She empowers the common realities of Filipino's lives for us to realize that it's not enough to give opinion in a traditional commentary ways. Portraying as a government employee, an OFW, policewoman, a performer, and even her normal self give us laugh and realization of importance of awareness in our elections and for the future of the Filipino nation.

In the tradition of Yosi Kadiri and the likes, Juana Change is a simple symbol of sarcasm who can kill those immoral people inside the Palace or political Chambers, but because of her antics, Juana Change is a strong symbol of awareness, a strong symbol of freedom of expression, and a strong symbol of a Filipino who fights for his or her right as a Filipino.

Prayer for Cory: A Tribute for the Philippines' Matriarch of Democracy

God:

We thank You for the wonderful blessings that you've given to us.

We also thank You for the challenges and sufferings because you made us a better person

in each single day of our lives.

As our sister, former Philippine President Corazon Cojuangco Aquino,

or Cory as we call her,

passed away this first day of August, we want You to know that we are sad of her loss.

But despite of her death, we know that she is now in Your Kingdom,

together with the Blessed Virgin Mary

and her husband, the late Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino.

We know that she is now happy there and sincerely praying

for the country where she lived, and for the people whom she served.

God, she was the Philippines' first woman president,

she was the so-called "the simple housewife who reopened the freedom of the Filipino people"

but then, she remains cheerful, calm, and smiling even in the midst of crisis.

she used the power of prayer and the power of rosary to defeat the wickedness of the society.

God, now that she is in Your good hands,

We are hoping that she became the inspiration for those people

who are greed and hopeless.

We are praying that she will be remembered by others in the future

and consider her as Your gift to the Filipino people -

a gift that makes us remember that we are proud to be Filipinos.

All of these we asked through Christ, our Lord, with the guidance of our dear Mama Mary.

AMEN.

CORAZON COJUANGCO AQUINO

11th Philippine President

January 25, 1933 - August 1, 2009
