truly irritated . . .

May 23rd, 2009

just want to voice out that i’m really annoyed with all the hype in the hayden kho video scandals.

it even had to be talked about for most of the airtime in news shows.  c’mon . . . even the senate would like to have a senate inquiry about it.

leave all these issues in the showbiz industry.  this issue should not be a case of public concern, i think.  ok, katrina halili is a “victim” in the sense that “she was not aware that a video is being taken” of that act . . . but the thing is, first and foremost, she should be aware that she is a public property (i.e., she is a showbiz personality) and things like these are no longer uncommon.  for me, before the doing the act, i believe she should have been prepared of the possible consequences . . . it takes two to tango . . . i believe she had a choice . . . she could have avoided it . . . if she really wanted to save her dignity.

another point . . . i believe that there are more important issues to be talked about and dealt with.  why focus on the hayden kho videos more but not about the fact that the a (h1n1) virus has already entered the country.  i believe the virus should be more of a public concern . . . it involves the lives, the health, the safety of filipinos . . . issues like these . . . eto ang dapat na pinag-uusapan, what measures should be done now that the virus is in the country?  how should we keep the filipinos informed about it? 

haaayyy . . . sometimes i think . . . are filipinos just really voyeurists in general?
