HUWAG KAYONG PABOLA SA FITCH INVESTMENT GRADE


Tulad ng dapat asahan, binobomba na ng PNoy government ang media tungkol sa investment grade na binigay ng international credit rating company na Fitch Ratings.

HUWAG KAYONG PADADALA, mga kababayan. WALA pang dapat IKATUWA O IPAGSAYA.

For the simple reason that the investments inflow which the PNoy government says can be expected from the investment grade rating ARE NOT HERE, YET. And they CAN’T TELL, even tentatively, when these investments can be expected.

Meaning, it can come tomorrow, next month or next year or in 2016. As in, God knows when. So don’t be as excited as Pnoy and his boys want you to be, with their media barrage.

Pnoy and his boys said, among others, that the investment grade will translate to lower interest rates and greater access to cheaper funds. But they can’t even give speculative figures.

So for all we know, the interest rates may be not as low as we would want or expect.  Or access to funds may not be as easy as they picture it to be.

Kaya isipin ninyo, mga kababayan: Ano ang DAPAT IPAGDIWANG, O IPAGSAYA?  Bakit ngayon pa lang ay kailangang maging excited na tayo. At bumiulib ng lubusan kay PNoy at sa mga bata  niya?

Even if you look at PNoy’s press statement, it’s a TOTALLY GENERIC, SELF-SERVING ‘PA-POGI’ reaction.

NO SPECIFICS whatsoever.

PNoy and his boys claim TOTAL, ABSOLUTE CREDIT for the iinvestment grade, citing, among others, sound fiscal management and purportedly integrity-based leadership.

But they CAN’T POINT OUT EVEN A SINGLE measure they’ve done, or had conceived or developed as their ORIGINAL IDEA, to justify their arrogance.

For the record, I’m not belittling the investment grade rating by Fitch.

I have written this piece to HELP ENLIGHTEN our  people on why we should not be BRAINWASHED into adoring or giving full support ot PNoy following the Fitch assessment.

Sa hirap ng buhay ngayon, hindi ‘pa-pogi’ press releases ang kailangan natin. Hindi walang katapusang DALDAL o SPEKULASYON. AKTWAL NA AKSYON ang kailangan natin, ang makapagpapagaan ng hirap na finaranas natin.

Hindi kapal ng mukha o panguuto ng iba.  30
