Buti pa sila

Dear Mouse, Calpers gave the Philippines a 30- day reprieve after Ambassador Alberto del Rosario with the full support of the Fil-American organizations met with the Investment Committee members of the giant pension fund of California. The Wilshire Consultants was responsible for the recommendation of the delisting of the Philippines. From the column of Greg Macabenta: One of the Wilshire execs revealed that she had been receiving a lot of e-mail from the Philippines recommending its delisting, adding that she did not take that into account in their evaluation. Frankly, I think she did. Secondly, she stated that her third party sources had reported that the "chairman of the Central Bank and the Chief Justice had been impeached," obviously suggesting that these developments were factored in the country risk analysis. At this, the entire hall, which was filled with Pinoys from all over the San Francisco Bay Area, reacted angrily: "That's not true" Apparently flustered, Hewsenian apologized for using an incorrect term like "impeached." At this point, I couldn't help yelling from the wings: "You're supposed to be accurate." Tindi 'ne po? At sino naman kayo yong mga e-mail buddies niyan sa Pinas? At sino naman kaya ang third party resources niya ? I did not know that evaluation for credit rating purposes for big pension fund investor like Calpers is based on hearshays and e-mails that contained screen names and handles that hide the true identities of the senders.

(Pasensiyahan ninyo po kung ako ay magdasal. Naniniwala po ako na ang kalawang ang sumisira sa bakal at ang tinga ang sumisira sa ipen. Kaya alam kong yong masasakit ang ngipin ang nag-eemail na yon). For the lady W exec., babaw mo ‘Neng. Ang balita ngayon ay mas mabilis pa sa paglagay mo ng mek-ap sa umaga. Ang impeach ay hindi klase ng kulay. Ito ay prutas. Ehe. Buti nga kayo may e-mail.*sigh*. The CA t
