How much does the Philippine President get paid? Currently, the Philippine Republic President is receiving Php60,000.00 (about USD1,333.33 at Php45.00 to 1 USD exchange rate) monthly. This is how much I pay for a mid-senior Developer/Programmer (PHP/Java) monthly. If compared to the President of the United States, as of 2001, the US President’s salary is about USD400,000.00 annually - or almost 3,000% higher than his Filipino counterpart.

But it doesn’t make sense to compare the salaries of a US President against a Philippine President. It doesn’t make sense at all why for just Php60,000.00 monthly, politicians are “dying” and spending millions and even billions of pesos to become a Philippine President.

Of course the reasons are obvious, aside from being the “Most Powerful Person” of the land, you get the opportunity to serve. (Laughing my ass out loud). Plus, you get to live in the Malacanang Palace, the most secured residence in the country. Also, you get Billions of pesos in Discretionary and Development funds, and other Budget Allocations at your disposal.

If you are greedy and play with the Devil, you get access to billions of pesos worth of contracts and government spendings and purchases - which perhaps could offer you some nice commission and “tong-pats.” If you are not greedy and shun Evil, chances are some of your relatives and friends and even family members do the tango and dance the cha-cha with the Demons.

There’s more and take the Poll after the jump.

I realized that Bloggers are humans after all. Thought most of them were bots. Haha. I ran a poll the other day - and thanks for all the swarm of participants - Haha. But hey guys, thanks a lot for participating and leaving your comments. You should have received your entrecard credits in your inbox already - I doubled the credits. LOL.

Now why did I said that Bloggers are Humans?

1. They were busy dating on Valentines only a handful got the time to take the pool on this blog. LOL
2. Bloggers have hearts - most are out dating or celebrating, some are still celebrating alone in front of the computer. LOL
3. And seriously, Bloggers post lots of tips - for humans. There are a lot of How-To blogs out there. Only humans can give valuable tips for humans.

Well, this is an insane post anyway. But I learned a big difference being online for Blogging or being online for Gaming: - the former brings out the humanity in you - while Gaming make you stuck in a world of fantasy.

I hope everyone had a wonderful time last Valentines day. For some (you know who - LOL), I’m wishing you a happier Valentines next year. And you should send me a picture of you with somebody giving you that real nice loving hug.

In my country, the Philippines, people celebrate Valentines day a very special day. No doubt, a national survey by SWS revealed that about 40% of Filipinos (uhmmm - hold your WHOAAH!!!) believe in CUPID! Perhaps what a stupid way of lovin’ eh, but perhaps some would agree stupidity begets company and company begets ‘love’. Haha, don’t know where I got that stupid line anyway…

Getting back to this post’s title - Blogging on Valentines. Needless to explain, would you be spending Valentines night with your special someone (e.g. your spouse, or lover, your kids, your family, your gay buddy, your lesbian sweetheart, your neighbor’s wife, your dog, etc.) and forget your Computer for a night? Or, would you rather prefer spending the night Blogging and dropping entrecards
