Lucy Torres Exposes Truth Behind Yolanda Relief Efforts

This is a very firm and elegant way of a woman exposing ugly things about the government. Kudos to Lucy. However, these things are open secrets and known to every Filipino who knows that dirty politics reigns in the Philippines. I doubt there'll be changes anytime soon after this expose. Credits to the owner of the video.

Arcan Ville and Regghie M. Orpiada

They're speaking the Filipino language but seems they belong to another planet. With an evil mind and heart, they already got what they ask for - fame! Yes, you two will be forever remembered for your evil and heartless tweets.
And as a reminder, "Be careful with what you wish for!" Karma is now digital and God is always watching.

Note: I actually contemplated for a while about posting something about these two disgusting creatures. I was asking myself if they are worth my time then I realized that referencing them through my blog archive and be forever tagged as a disappointment to the Philippines especially to their families is worth of my 5-minutes.
