The Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) was one of the biggest projects of the government under the administration of former President Rodrigo Duterte, which aimed to provide a ‘national ID’ for every Filipino in the country.

Millions of Filipinos quickly availed of the program and because of its demand, the government faced backlogs and some were forced to wait for months or even years before their IDs to arrive.

That’s why many netizens were disappointed when a concerned citizen revealed that some of the unclaimed national IDs were found in a dumpster.

In a video posted by @Joketerte on X, the concerned citizen opened several envelopes he found in a pile of trash that turned out to contain unclaimed national IDs.

The uploader showed the cards to inform their owners about the status of their national IDs.

It was possible that the owners were unaware of the status of their IDs and they probably thought were still in the process of being made.

Meanwhile, motivational speaker Rendon Labador reacted to the video and even criticized the government for dumping unclaimed IDs instead of trying to reach out to their owners.

“Good news! Ang National ID puwede ng i-claim, puntahan niyo lang po sa basurahan,” he said.

As of writing, the Philippine Statistics Office has yet to give any response to the discovery made by the concerned citizen.

Eat Bulaga host Paolo Contis was visibly in high spirits after the successful trademark renewal of Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc.

It can be recalled that the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) granted a 10-year renewal of TAPE’s trademark ownership on Eat Bulaga.

It means that TAPE would be the rightful owner of Eat Bulaga and EB trademark until 2033.

A big victory was worth celebrating and Paolo didn’t waste the opportunity to treat the Eat Bulaga family.

In an Instagram post, TAPE’s finance director Bullet Jalosjos thanked Paolo for buying a bunch of Seafood Paella platters as his treat to the staff of the longest-running noontime show.

The TAPE executive also made a short statement after they received the decision from IPOPHL.

“May awa ang Diyos,” he said.

Last week, Paolo addressed the criticisms they received from the netizens, including the ‘Fake Bulaga’ being labeled on them.

“Ang tanong, sino ba ang nagmamay-ari ng Eat Bulaga? Ang sagot, lahat po tayo kasi sa 44 years lahat po tayo ay naging bahagi nito” Paolo said.

“Hindi po maiiwasan may mga magsasabi na wala kaming ambag dahil bago lamang po kami dito, pero ang mahalaga ay lahat naman ay ginagawa namin para ipagpatuloy ang pagbibigay ng saya at tulong sa inyo,” he added.

Internet celebrity Sir Jack told motivational speaker Rendon Labador to stop criticizing It’s Showtime host Ion Perez for being dependent on his girlfriend Vice Ganda.

Last week, Rendon called out Ion and Vice for their seductive way of eating a cake in front of children during the Isip Bata segment of It’s Showtime.

He also called Ion ‘palamunin’ and alleged that the host was only milking his girlfriend.

In his Facebook post, Sir Jack said that Rendon must remember that he also allegedly practiced the same thing before.

“Rendon Labador Par, wag mo namang kwestionin si Idol Ion Perez na may ABS pero namamaccla? baka nakakalimutan mo ata e kilala ko Mamshoe mo? HAHAHA,” Sir Jack said.

“Nakalimutan na ata ni Par kung saan sya nagsimula eh?” he added.

Jack was a former collaborator of Rendon and in the past.

He expressed sadness about Rendon’s way of trying to become popular on social media.

“Harapin mo nalang yang mga consequences na pinasok mo at humingi ka ng patawad sa mga taong naagrabyado mo, payo lang yan para sa ikabubuti mo din. Wala naman akong galit na personal talaga sayo, sa mga hindi nakakaalam mabuti ka namng tao sa tunay na buhay at pinapakita mo lang ay yung pagiging agresibo mo kaya hindi nila alam good side mo,” Jack said.

The internet celebrity also revealed the issue of Rendon with several investors.

“Coming from you pa talaga beshy Rendon ah? Walang magmamahal sayo kung hindi ka magbabayad ng UTANG MO SA MGA INVESTORS MO KAMUSTA NA YUN? Ganyan dapat!” he said.
