A Writing Project for Musa Dimasidsing
This author was not aware of the project and Nick of Tingog has left me a message in my article on the late Musa Dimasidsing to include my entry titled Maguindanao Poll Fraud Witness Shot Dead written on the 10th of June.2007. This is one way of showing our indignation on election related violence and fraudulent conduct that may have been the reason for the murder of Dimasidsing.
Artemio De La Cruz in his comment had summed it up in this manner;
Benjamin Abalos is in the state of denial since the Hello Garci political scandal. He is using the same defensive line:
Where are the witnesses? Where the complainants? Where are the evidences? It appears that elections commissionaires are pretending to be deaf and blind. They are tolerating election fraud. “What witness? What whistleblower?” This is the reaction of Chairman Abalos regarding the death of Maguindanao whistleblower Musa Dimasidsing. He doesn’t care how many casualties-dead or wounded who are protecting the sanctity of votes. The Comelec goal is TU’s victory by hook and by crook.
Fidel Umaga of Movement for Free Philippines had this to say:
As long as we do not find our own death from every man, woman or child that dies from violence and unknown assailants, many more, specially those who have less and the weak, among us would still become victims of undeterred violence and death in our benighted land.
It is a society of immoral people that simply moves on just to meet a quarterly national economic target while leaving at the backhouse the unresolved deaths and mysterious abductions of so many of them.
As suggested and also in one of Fidel Umaga’s response to the other blog entry it is time we hold our elected official accountable in seeing to it that justice is served. Let this signal a start of people’s collective indignation, you don’t have to be a blogger to participate in this project. This is also open to anyone that has no blog to just post a comment on the blogs that has participated in this project where it will be compiled so it can be presented to the people and the authorities concerned. Let them know we do not appreciate what is happening and we will not let it pass until justice has been served to all 130 plus victims of this dastardly senseless barbaric acts. If you feel the need to address people in authority we can start with the comelec at the address below;
The Commission on Elections

Sana nga hindi lang E.coli. multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Burkholderia cepacia para mas mabagsik. :-)
truly heartbreaking, reading news of what's happening in our country. im deeply troubled. if a comment would do then i participate in the project to request for a quick response and action in this matter.
there's already too much crime pending for action and progress had been really slow, or worse, stagnant and not prioritized.
Stop summary killing. We want peace. Protect and give justice to the innocents. We are tired and hurt seeing people killed for defending what they believe to be true and just. There's too much blood, too much hatred, too much power hunger, too much greed. What is left for the poor and who want honest living? Please leave them in peace. We want peace, peace and peace!
Where there is smoke, there is fire the old adage said. But the Comollect in all its stupidity are still waitng for witnesses to come forward to start investigating. Any investigator will tell you that a case would move even without a witness.
It only shows that the Comollect is part of the grand conspiracy to defraud the electorate. GO should charge the commissioners for electoral sabotage.
PRIVATIZE THE COMELEC, GET RID OF INCOMPETENCE, WASTE AND FRAUD.
WE NEED A CLEAN SYSTEM THAT THE CITIZENS CAN RESPECT AND TRUST AND WITH BUILT IN SAFEGUARDS THAT WILL PREVENT AND FRUSTRATE THE EFFORTS OF THE GREEDY, THE DISHONEST, THE MURDEROUS AND THE CORRUPTING PEOPLE IN OUR SOCIETY.
The constitution mandates a body that is totally independent of any political, economic or personal interest but that is not how it turned out to be. First the officials of Comelec became political appointees whose allegiance became tied to their interest to remain in power. Second the Comelec has time and again demonstrated gross incompetence in the conduct and implementation of its mandate to hold honest, credible and timely elections. And third but not the least, the legal means to hire and fire unqualified and underperforming Comelec officials is weak and needs to be overhauled in the interest of efficiency, quality and integrity.
It's about time that our new lawmakers tackle this age old burden to the Philippine electorate because there are now millions of citizens located outside the country that are being disenfranchised because of the lack of responsibility among the current crop of Comelec officials. The Comelec should be targeted for abolition and a new private system should be legislated where officials will be subjected to election by the citizens and not be controlled by the whims of corrupt and self-serving presidents.
hello!
wrote a post and joined the writing project for Musa Dumasidsing
I would like to acknowledge those who support the writing project such as Fidel Umaga, Nap, Tess, Artemio, 30K fishes,mschumey07, Philippe, andianka and the rest who supports what this blog is all about.
It hurt to know that politicians and people who are greedy has no respect of
freedom and democracy and the value of life. Nakakalungkot na ang mga taong
dapat ay patnubay ng ating bansa ay biktima ng mga hidhid at masama. Akala ko
tayo ay mga makabayan at mapagmahal sa ating kapwa, not only we have no respect
to our law but most of all to life itself. How can we be free, if we live in
fear and we don't have dignity as human being? Ang isa ay di makakalaya lahat o
wala.
