Former Dabarkads Anjo Yllana speaks about the rumored rebranding of Eat Bulaga: “It’s unfortunate”

Former Eat Bulaga host Anjo Yllana gave his thoughts about the rumored internal issue happening among the executives of the longest-running noontime show in the Philippines.

In an interview, Anjo said that the possible rebranding of Eat Bulaga under the Jalosjos family was ‘unfortunate’.

According to the comedian, the legendary trio and foundation of Eat Bulaga, Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon popularly known as TVJ only wanted to see the 50th anniversary of the noontime show.

“Ang tagal na eh, 43 years.” said Anjo. “Parang ang wish lang naman ng TVJ ay umabot sila ng 50, yun ang kanilang goal,”

“Siguro pag dating nila ng 50 hindi na nila igo-goal ‘yung 100,” he added.

If ever the rebranding was true, Anjo said that reaching 43 years was still a ‘big blessing’ to the people behind Eat Bulaga.

“Sobrang daming blessing na ‘non na binigay sa lahat ng involved ng Eat Bulaga.” he said.

“Unfortunate, nagkakagulo ngayon. Sad at the same time, sana maayos pa nila kung maayos, at kung maghihiwalay naman sila, sana maging successful parin sila kung dalawang Eat Bulaga na sila,” he added.

It can be recalled that several publications reported that TVJ planned to create their own show ‘Dabarkads’ to match the rebranded version of Eat Bulaga if ever the rumors were true.

Actor who accused of being a shoplifter decided to report the incident: ‘I will have this blottered’

A supermarket chain went viral recently after one of their customers has been accused of being a shoplifter by some security personnel working for the said company.

In a Facebook post, Hope Marco Yutuc posted a video showing how he was being checked publicly by the head of the security of the Puregold Muntinlupa branch.

According to Yutuc, he has been accused of placing unpaid grocery items inside his bag which he repeatedly denied.

In the end, the security personnel didn’t see any evidence to prove their accusations against Yutuc.

The actor shared that he was planning to file charges against the security personnel of the said branch for putting him in an embarrassing situation.

“I will go to the police and have this blottered,” he said.

“I’ll make the necessary actions to be taken friend,” he added.

Yutuc also said that he already got the necessary information to file formal charges against the people who accused him of shoplifting.

“Nakuha ko na kagabi march 13 ang pangalan,edad at tirahan nang in-house security na nag sita saakin para ipablotter na unang dapat na hakbang.” Yutuc remarked.

According to some lawyers, it was possible for Yutuc to file charges if the actor can prove that there was defamation happened in a public place.

The accused has also the right in requesting to discuss the shoplifting accusations in private and not in public.

Meanwhile, Puregold already published a public apology about what happened to Yutuc.

“Please know that this incident is being dealt with privately, with kindness and patience. We ask that you allow us to learn from this and improve.” the company statement reads.

Some netizens also said that what the security personnel did was wrong.

“I think dapat part ng protocol is to stop the suspected customer sa cashier exit then invite quietly na kausapin sa isang private part ng supermarket, pwede rin sa office room. This is to prevent the humiliation of wrongly accused customers in front of others, baka makunan pa sila ng video at ma post without their consent.” netizen Ito Rapadas said.

Dating Agri Sec. Manny Piñol kontra sa 4Ps: “The Philippines cannot be a Welfare State”

Former Agriculture Secretary Manny Piñol expressed his opposition again to the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, popularly known as ‘4Ps’ after seeing the rise of poverty incident in the Philippines.

In his social media post, Piñol cited the rise of poverty incidents per family by 18.1% despite having 4Ps to pour money into the poor people for 16 years already.

He even said that the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) gets more budget than the Department of Agriculture (DA) because of the money needed to fund the monthly assistance for the 4.2-M households in the country.

Piñol in his past post said that 4Ps was doing more harm than good because it only teach the people to be lazy and wait for their monthy assistance to arrive.

“Indeed, there were success stories but these were overshadowed by accounts of reduced agricultural productivity because of lack of workers especially during the week after a pay-out, money spent for other purposes and ATM cards hocked to usurers.” Piñol said.

According to him, he already suggested before to turn 4Ps to encourage its beneficiaries to be productive. However, he was criticized for being against the said program and even called him ‘anti-poor’.

He also criticized the politicians who were supporting the current system of 4Ps because it gain them votes from the poor.

“The 4Ps is like a Tiger on whose back politicians ride on to win elections. They could not dismount and abandon 4Ps because if they do they will lose in the next elections.” he said.

“Our biggest problem now is that our economic planners would like to provide a quick solutions to problems of inflation, poverty reduction and job generation.

“Worse, almost every politician looks to dole-outs as the easiest way of convincing voters to support them because they “support the poor.”

“With the National Debt nearing P14-T, however, I believe the time has come for our leaders to dismount from the Tiger and show courage to amend this expensive and ineffective strategy of helping the poor.

Piñol mentioned a famous proverb: “If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.”

The former Agriculture secretary also believed that Philippines cannot afford to assist the poor forever.
