E-PEPE-DERALISMO!: Asst. Sec Mocha Goes Low

By Mortz C. Ortigoza

"E-PEPE, E-PEPE, E-DEDE, E-PEPE, PEPEDERALISMO!"
HesusMariaHusef ! So this was the proposed ballyhooed campaign advertisement by the superiors of Presidential Communication Operations Office Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson to educate us Flips, er, Filipinos about what is federal form of government?
Where an "effeminate" blogger Drew Oliver danced before the eyes of Uson and viewers of You Tube while he incessantly touched, as part of the choreography, his breasts and crotch in a presentation to be given to a female dancer while a jingle plays "E-Dede, E Pepe..."
Dede and Pepe are colloquial Filipino words for boobs and vagina.
The controversial information dissemination from the PCOO has a staggering budget of P90 million. 

FONDLE - Singer Mocha Uson asked an FM disc jockey on this photo to grope her during her interview.

Was it Uson, my village mate in Dagupan City, who said that most of the ASEAN members' countries are Federal in form?
"Napag-iwanan na ang Pinas, ika nga".
Gee whiz, aside from Malaysia as the only Federal formed of government in the 10 ASEAN countries, federalism has nothing to do with the burgeoning growth of Malaysia.

Aside from its openness to foreign investors that provides jobs to its people, one of the major linchpins to the Malaysian economy is the effing oil.

Here's the Wall Street Journal’s article titled: “Malaysia’s Petronas to Review Spending as Oil Prices Slide”: "It has a vibrant oil and gas industry. The national oil company, Petronas is ranked the 69th biggest company in the world in the Fortune 500 list in 2014, with revenue of over US100.7 billion and total assets of over US$169 billion. Petronas provides around 30% of the Malaysian government's revenue, although the government has been actively cutting down on its reliance of petroleum, with a target of 20%."

The probably bungled Uson’s proposed ads on Federalism that could not be juxtaposed with a nursery rhyme, son of a gun, because it insinuated prurience on words like: “E-pepe, e-pepe, e-dede, e-dede, e-pepe-pepe-pepederalismo! 
It did not only become a laughing stock all over the country but became a patent embarrassment about the intellectual stocks of Filipino officials in Malacanang now.
Am I right PCOO Secretary Martin Andanar?

It even got the goat of former Senate President Koko Pimentel, one of the major proponents of Federalism, that only showed that Uson, a former risqué performer who had social media’s DIY (Do It Yourself, idiot!) videos on sex, was too amateur to be responsible in giving political education to the majority of our people who are nonchalant to the nuances of Federalism.

I thought she was turning 180 degrees from her dark past where she projected eroticism before she started to sell this sorry country’s shift to another form of government to our sorry people.

“Ako ay nagkamali! Akala ko makakatulong si Mocha sa pagpapaliwanag tungkol sa Pederalismo,” Pimentel, president of the ruling PDP-Laban, said in a viber message to reporters as quoted by the Inquirer.

“Kasi naman ang pagka intindi ko ay hindi naman siya ang in-charge kundi isang tao na mas meron otoridad at kaalaman sa Pederalismo tulad ng mga miembro ng consultative committee. Hindi ko lubos akalain na bababuyin pala nila ang kawsa ng Pederalismo. Ilayo na si Mocha sa Pederalismo. Mag-aral muna siya ng mabuti. Mag leave muna siya,” Pimentel, one of the four advocates of Federalism in the Senate, added.

In the proposed constitutional revision, the present senate will be abolished and will be replaced by two senators elected from each of the 18 proposed regions.

Salamabit, a clear and present danger to the reelection of the present 24 sitting senators in 2022 and beyond, where one of them was thrown in the slammer, who are voted nationwide.
The proposed charter's requisite of a college diploma is another clear and present danger to my idol pistolero - celluloid screen hero - come backing senatorial bet Lito Lapid who only finished his elementary grade at the probably Mababang Paaralan ng San Andres Bukid or Low School of Saint Andrew's Field  doon lang sa dulo ng Clark Field, Pampanga as Pangasinan media men mangled its English translation whenever I asked them on air during broadcast time or whenever we drink booze.

Who says that Federalism is the economic silver bullet for the Philippines?

It’s the amendment of the Public Service Acts (PSA), dimwit, that until now the Senators procrastinate to pass so President Rodrigo Duterte can sign it into law.

The present PSA or otherwise known as  Commonwealth Act No. 146 covers all types of common carriers, be it by land, air or water, water supplies and systems, petroleum, electricity, communications systems and even broadcasting stations.

It is where utilities have been mandated by law to be averagely 60 percent owned by Filipino or Filipinos despite the thick pockets of the foreign partners who sulked themselves to settle for the 40 % of the voting stocks.

Because of this seemingly xenophobic equity, foreign investors go instead to Mainland China, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and other South East Asian countries.

If the House of Representatives passed the PSA in September last year, why the Mabagal na  Mataas na Kapulungan or Slow Senate as derisively called by ex- Speaker Panty Alvarez until now sits on it?

Is it because its campaign time for the May 13, 2019 poll for re-elective senators like Grace Poe, Cynthia Villar, Nancy Binay, Sonny Angara, Koko Pimentel, Bam Aquino, and JV Ejercito where they have to crisscross the country in an expensive hundreds of millions of pesos stump where they need radio and television advertisement? 

Do they need badly the monies and aircraft of these corporations being affected by the amendment of the PSA?
