Inpatalos ed Pangasinan manlapud Espanyol nen Erwin S. Fernandez


Dalin ya inaro
Anak na agew ed letakan,
Say apuy to manliub
Ed panagparuk ed sika.

Baley daray ar-aro
Andoyan na kabayanian,
Saray mananamsam
Ag da ka nadiwit anggad piga.

Diad tawen mon inanagan, diad saray lurem mo,
Diad saray palandey mo tan ed dayat mo
Masnag tan onpaparuk so anlong
Na inaron kawayangan mo.

Say laylay mo, ed saray bakálan,
Nansilew ed pamanaltalo,
Ag nalinggis ya naerep andi kapigan man
Iray bituwen mo ni tay banuam.

Dalin na gayaga, na agew tan daray ar-aro,
Diad akualan mo agay lay samit so nabilay;
Sakey ya gloria ed saray anak mo,
No sikay sakitan da et onpatey lapud sika.

"The Pensacola Syndrome" : Akin ag napanpiaan so Estados Unidos?

Why we cannot trust the U.S.?

Inpromisa na US ya itdan to konoy Pilipinas na "powerful radar." Tan ontulong ira kono ed pamaalagey na sakey ya National Coast Watch Center.

Natan ka diad isabiy 2020 kapalduad pwirsa na US Navy iyakar da la ed Pasipiko.

During the quest for Philippine Independence in 1898, the US through Dewey fooled Aguinaldo into believing that America came to help the Filipinos get their freedom from Spain. In a blatant show of treachery, what happened was they used Filipino forces to secure Manila from the Spaniards so that eventually they could fight the Filipinos and take the Philippines from them.

Then came World War II. America's Europe First policy prolonged the agony of the Filipinos fighting in Bataan and Corregidor in the Pensacola, the American convoy that never arrived past Australia. 

The historian, diplomat extraordinaire, and biographer of Rizal, Leon Ma. Guerrero delivered a talk in 1969 and revised and published in 1972 about what he called the Pensacola syndrome, an allegory to what happened in Bataan that speaks on the over-reliance of the Philippines on the US for their security against external aggression.

Samay Symington report nen 1967 insalaysay diman ya say Amerika aliwan nakaokolan ya onrispondi no say Pilipinas et inataki na arum ya bansa somlang ed samay kanonotan ya "instant retaliation" ya walad saray tongtongan na US tan Pilipinas. Natan ya anggapo la US bases, ag nailaloan say mutual defense treaty na Pilipinas tan US.


Sayan panagdipindi ed US anggapoy agawaan ton marakep ta imbis ya napabalibali so AFP, tagaawat labat na obsolete iran kagawaan ya nanlapu rad Vietnam War.

Samay sinaliw na Pilipinas ya coast guard cutter, imbis ya akargaan ya kaokolan ya dipinsa, inlako ni na Amerika, pinantuboan da ti ni, et manliket si PNoy.

Guerrero gave the opinion that: "the Filipinos may wish to relieve their Pensacola syndrome, and consider the advantages of a self-reliant independent neutrality over a bilateral agreement with a superpower that, as the Symington hearings suggested, might well be only an agreement for the defence of the indefensible by the reluctant against the indifferent."

I agree that now more than ever we need to be self-reliant and independent and that means developing our military capability in matters of defense and offense and that our aim must be nothing far short than to become a naval power in the Asia Pacific.



Incompetent DFA and Mr. Del Rosario: Antoy aalagaren mo ni? File the complaint!

Abayag lan ibabaga na Department of Foreign Affairs ed panamegley nen Mr. Albert Rosario ya mangi-file iray asunto ed International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea.

Nen kapetangan na Scarborough, malastog sayan Del Rosario ya walad kanepegan na Pilipinas so Bajio de Masinloc o sayay Panatag shoal.

Pigaran bulan lay apalabas, natan ibabaga nen Del Rosario ya kaokolan ya ipalima so kaso ed ITLOS diad Hamburg, Germany.

Akin ag to ni ginawa ya?

No man-press release say DFA, singa ibabaga dad China so strategy da ya mangiiter na panaon ed impiryalista ya makapanparaan.

What are you waiting for, Mr. Del Rosario? Are you as incompetent as your predecessor? The news that could have landed in newspapers should have been: "RP files complaint to ITLOS." In other words, the deed has been done for all the Filipinos to know that you are really doing your job.

It has been in the news that you will file complaint to ITLOS. Does this mean that your people in the DFA are still sitting on the case?

Mr. Del Rosario, mere rhetoric does not help our case. Action does.

FILE IT NOW.
