Who is Malu Fernandez?

August 30th, 2007 by AMBO | 2 Comments | Filed in Blogs, Filipina, News, Philippines, Society, Travel, Youtube

This afternoon i was talking to my friend Sweden who’s living in Australia and at the height of our conversation she mentioned about this Malu Fernandez who’s been the most hated person in the blogosphere for days now. She mentioned that she can’t remember what’s the issue all about. Then i became curious who is this Malu Fernandez. So i searched google and found out that i was really left behind about the issue. Huh! For God sake, it happened when my laptap broke and needed a repair at the HP service center in Makati.

Willie’s Wilyonaryo a Mistake? An Update.

August 29th, 2007 by AMBO | No Comments | Filed in Blogs, Game Shows, Inspirational, Life, Philippines, Pinoy, Society, TV

August 29, 2007, This afternoon Willie Revillame had spoken and opened up regarding this controversy and it turned out so emotional during the opening of his show ‘Wowowee’. He felt sorry and made a public apology already. This may seem acceptable on part of other people who are in the audience and those watching at home. Willie was totally irked and cannot avoid himself to talk about Joey De Leon’s - who keep on bullying him. Willy said, he respect Joey’s opinion but his ‘pasaring’ were totally below the belt. Willie decided to come out of the show and clear all that matters. Evidently, the Wowowee host’s apologies were already forgiven.

As we all know, the show is not merely a show to make other people cry, laugh and entertain but i, as an audience, i believe that the show is an instrument to help our fellow Pinoys to at least lessen their burden in their fight for poverty.

The Wowowee show, from Willie Revillame and to all the staff, we are proud of you guys.

You are truly Proud Pinoys!

Ang Pinay sa Buhay ni Pinoy Ambisyoso

August 28th, 2007 by AMBO | 21 Comments | Filed in Blogs, Filipina, Inspirational, Philippines, Pinoy, SEO, Thoughts

Una ko siyang nakilala noong unang araw ng ako’y umiyak at namulat. Ngunit masakit man isipin, noong unang araw na iyon ay hindi ko man lang nakita ang kanyang mukha. Lumipas ang ilang mga araw, namalagi siya sa aking tabi. Kasa-kasama ko siya kahit saan man ako magtungo.

Hanggang isang araw, biglaan ang kanyang pagkakasakit. Naging paralisado. Mula sa dating masigla, naging parang lantang gulay ang sinapit niya. Napakasakit isipin, ngunit ito ang katotohanang dapat kong tanggapin. At sa mahabang panahon, natanggap ko iyon.

Willie’s Wilyonaryo a Mistake?

August 28th, 2007 by AMBO | 2 Comments | Filed in Blogs, Game Shows, Manila, Philippines, Pinoy, Society, TV, Youtube

Speculations regarding Wowowee’s Wilyonaryo episode last August 20, a scam or just a mere mistake? This video from youtube.com have been circulating in the internet and received negative reactions from the people who watched it.

Well, the show has all the rights to explain what really happened and viewers has the right to hear it as well. I know this issue will soon be cleared. So, let’s just wait.

The ‘Wilyonaryo’ segment was first launched last Saturday, August 18, 2007 replacing ‘Pera o Bayong’.
