A year and two days

Today is exactly a year and two days past since I posted my last entry. Time flies so quickly. Have anything change? None on this blog.

Was there a change in Butuan? Let’s be truthful about this. Was there a change in Butuan’s economy, employment, investment, peace and order? Are we better of today than the previous City administration? I have something to say for Butuan. I have seen it every day and heard heard her stories through my fellow Butuanon’s  including their pains and complains. Here’s what I noticed:

During heavy rains, we still experienced flooded streets and overflowed drainage canals. Beggars still keep knocking on your window shield while waiting for a traffic along the City’s thorough fares. Langihan market is still dirty and crowded. Garbage pilled up uncollected. Rizal Plaza is still not safe for families to spend time relaxing because of these rugby-addict young boys/girls roaming around. They’re still rampant in this place including the streets along Mancao Square and Mercury Drug Store.

How about employment? Have you heard of any newly established or located company (especially manufacturing/processing) in the City to absorbed our unemployed Butuanons?  Sorry,  I won’t consider those low paying tindero/tindera jobs as employed.  Most of them were abused by their employers knowing that they have no choice.

Like this blog, Butuan has not change. Both are about to face its own death. Death is inevitable. But I should not worry  for this blog. After all this blog has only three readers.   307,942 is quite a number if Butuan fails.

    what’s really obvious are the roads….Lubak na hinuon ug samot
    Asa man kaha kadtong kwarta gikan sa mga gi-pang undang na mga projects sa previous administrasyon? Gi-unsa man pag gamit sa Administrasyon ni Mayor Amante?

    ngano guba naman samot mga dalan? Pati mga traffic lights wala na ma maintain, guba na pod.

    sige man biyahe ang mayor uban tanan mga konsehal; wala man mga resulta sa ila mga lakaw adto manila

    kadto eleksyon, nag saadf sila kanato na imbestigahan gyud ang mga illegal mining sa Taguibo watershed. They even made a political issue out Mining.

    ang nahitabo karon sa administrasyon ni Amante, wala gihapon nila gi imbestiga ang Taguibo watershed, ; dakung pangutana ngano kaha? Dili kaha nahibalo sila na ang dakung nag paluyo sa mga mina sa watershed mao ila padrino na taga cabadbaran?

    ngano man karon ni daghan na mga minahan sa Butuan? pati agusan River minahon napod sa Ark mining. Aduna pod mga illegal Chinese miners sa barangay De Oro; aduna pod minahan sa Bugsukan ug Dankias.

    asa naman kadtong nag sige martsa sa kadalanan kaniadto eleksyon na mi suporta kang Amante ug sa environment?

    asa naman ila gi saad mga factory ug mga investors sa I.T Park ug mga Chinese businesmen???? Mga Illegal miners naman hinuon naa dinhe kanato.

    Mag kanta kanta na lang ta ug porma pa pogi ani sa mga dagko na tarpaulin sama ni Culima ug ni law Fortun
