A campaign on Facebook asking for to rename the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) back to Manila International Airport (MIA) is gaining ground amongs online users.<br />
<br />
It is not clear who began the project but Facebook users have actually been sharing posters just recently; requiring that NAIA be renamed back to MIA.<br />
<br />
One of the extensively circulated posts read:<br />
<br />
The initial structures consisting of today area of Terminal 2, runways, taxiways and the control tower were integrated in the 1950s. A terminal structure for international passengers was inaugurated in 1961, but a 1972 fire triggered severe damage to the original terminal building; prompting the government to build a slightly smaller building in its location that would later become the international terminal.<br />

Back to initial MIA-- the well-known Manila Intl Airport (world class and no1 in ASIA).<br />
<br />
Retain as NAIA-- Ninoy Aquino International Airport (worst airport in the world).<br />
<br />
Another essential thing, our airport needs enhancements and change the management. and so on. Our airport (MIA) was among the finest airports from 1970s until 1987 ... We can make it one of the very best again.<br />

Hounded by congestion, absence of facilities, poor service and corruption among airport staff in later years, NAIA has actually been regularly tagged as one of the worst airports in the world by several travel websites.<br />
<br />
In 2015, NAIA lastly relinquished its title in The Guide To Sleeping in Airports' list to a Nigerian airport, but stays the 8th worst in Asia.<br />
<br />
It was then relabelled to Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) on August 17, 1987 by virtue of Republic Act No. 6639 under the late president Cory Aquino.<br />
<br />
Originally named Manila International Air Terminal, the nation's main international entrance was moved to its present place in 1948 following the Philippine self-reliance.<br />
<br />
In 1981, the Terminal 1 was built and was named Manila International Airport (MIA), and replaced the old terminal as the brand-new worldwide terminal.<br />

Netizens stated NAIA must get rid of its 'jinx' as one of the worst airports by reverting it to its old name.<br />
<br />
Do you like this concept? from NAIA back to MIA (the original name of the airport that represented our country)-- MANILA INT' L. AIRPORT.<br />

Mar Roxas Binanatan ang NDRRMC over Lawin: Our Yolanda Preperation was Better!

Unknown 0 20:28

Former Department of Interior and Local Government secretary, and losing presidential candidate Manuel Roxas II lashed out the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) for lack of action and slow response after typhoon Lawin battered the Northern Luzon.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Lawin left seven people dead according to NDRRMC, but Roxas – during the radio interview on Friday said deaths should have been avoided if the DSWD and NDRRMC acted to inform people before the typhoon smash their homes.

Most of the deaths were caused by landslide according to the council

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Siguro ang titingnan natin ditto ay ang response time. Gaano ba sila kabilis mag response? May enough prior information ba bago humagupit ang bagyo? Sa tingin ko marami pa ri ang kulan. Sa tingin ko mag maganda pa ang preparations naming dati before and after Yolanda, Roxas said.<br /><br />

Lawin was considered a super typhoon and contrary to Roxas statement, NDRRMC was lauded for their up to date and full response as.<br /><br />

Roxas candidacy was highly affected by his performance on handling typhoon Yolanda victims as DILG secretary. Yolanda and Lawin have both winds exceeding 120kph, but Yolanda left more than 6,000 deaths and more than 1,000 missing.

Duterte blames industrialized nations anew for devastating typhoons

<div style="background: white; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 15pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: large;">
MANILA – President Duterte on Sunday slammed industrialized nations anew for their climate-warming emissions which stoke the intensity of tropical cyclones that typically leave large swathes of destruction in the Philippines. <br /><br />

At the same time, Duterte reiterated that his administration will not honor an international treaty for limiting carbon emissions, which he said, will stymie Manila’s industrial growth. <br /><br />

Speaking to victims of super typhoon “Lawin” in Tugegarao, Cagayan, the President argued that industrialized countries like the United States, the European nations, and China, have been giving off greenhouse gas emissions for decades. <br /><br />

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The agricultural Philippines, by contrast, has left relatively small carbon footprints and cannot be blamed for changing climate patterns, he said. <br /><br />
 
“When the Industrial Revolution began in 1901, 1902, na-discover nila ang use of oil. It was America, and the European nations – and China after the war – sila ang pinakamalakas na gumamit ng makinarya na bumubuga ng usok,” he said. <br /><br />

“Mabibilang mo ang factory dito sa Pilipinas… Compared to other nations, wala tayong kakiting-kiting.” <br /><br />

[When the Industrial Revolution began in 1901, 1902, they discovered the use of oil. It was America and the European nations – and China after the war – they are the ones that widely use machines that give off carbon emissions. In the Philippines, you can count the factories (that emit carbon)… Compared to other nations, we have almost none.] <br /><br />

Duterte said cutting carbon emissions at a point when the Philippines' economic rise is just starting will be unfair. He also vowed to develop the Philippines based on the needs of the public, not according to international demands. <br /><br />

Duterte then vowed that he will develop the Philippines based on the needs of the public, not according to international demands. <br /><br />

“I will develop my country according to the needs of my people. Marami na kasing tao, kailangan gumamit ng maraming makina, Kapag pipigilan ninyo ako, paano ko papakainin ang mga kababayan ko, paano ako maka-produce nang maraming lahat – hindi mechanized, hanggang araro nang araro kami,” he said. <br /><br />

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

[Our population has grown, we need to use a lot of machines. If you stop me, how will I feed my countrymen, how can I mass-produce everything, non-mechanized and only through constantly plowing the land?] <br /><br />

Duterte did not mention which international treaty he was referring to, but the Philippines last year was among 178 countries which signed the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.<br /><br />

Last week, the President also belittled the assistance that the United States extended to the Philippines in the aftermath of Typhoon ''Yolanda'' in 2013, arguing that the calamity was caused by carbon emissions from industrialized nations.<br /><br />

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Last Wednesday, super typhoon Lawin smacked northern Luzon with torrential rains and high winds, forced the evacuation of thousands of residents, laid waste to farmlands, and brought down trees, homes and buildings. <br /><br />

Tuguegarao was among the worst-hit areas and has declared a state of calamity. Duterte and his Cabinet led the delivery of relief aid to the town and adjoining Isabela province on Sunday.

Duterte:Philippines may soon gain fishing rights in Scarborough Shoal

Unknown 0 03:10

CAGAYAN - The Philippines may soon gain fishing rights in the highly disputed Scarborough Shoal, President Rodrigo Duterte announced Sunday.<br /><br />
During his visit to typhoon "Lawin" victims in Cagayan, Duterte told local fishermen to "just wait for a few more days" and maybe they can go back to Scarborough Shoal.<br /><br />
"We'll just wait for a few more days baka makabalik na tayo doon sa Scarborough Shoal, ang pangingisda ng ating mga kababayan [and maybe we can go back to Scarborough Shoal, the fishing of our countrymen]," Duterte said in a speech.<br /><br />
The President clarified that he did not discuss about war or weapons with Chinese leader Xi Jinping during his state visit to China.<br /><br />
"Ako po ay nagpunta doon wala ho kaming pinagusapang armas. Wala po kaming pinag-usapang giyera-giyera. Pinag-usapan namin paano tayo magtulungan," Duterte said.<br /><br />

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

(I went there and we did not discuss about firearms. We did not discuss about war. We talked about how we can help each other.)
<br /><br />
Since both the Philippines and China claim ownership over Scarborough Shoal, Duterte asked local fishermen not to fish in lagoons in the sea which serve as breeding grounds for fish to avoid an imbalance in supply.

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

"Ako na mismo ang nagsabi na kung makabalik tayo sa Scarborough Shoal bilang may-ari -- sabi nila sila rin may-ari -- ako na mismo magsabi huwag kayo mangisda diyan -- yung parang fishpond sa dagat -- makita mo green instead of blue. 'Yun lang pinakiusap ko para magkaroon tayo ng magandang supply," he said.
<br /><br />
(I am personally saying that if we can return to Scarborough Shoal, as owner, they also said they're the owner, don't fish there -- the one that looks like a fishpond in the ocean which is green instead of blue. That's my only request so we can have a good supply.)

<o:p></o:p></span></div>

He told fishermen not to "gamble and destroy" the breeding grounds of fish in the sea since marine products are the cheapest food Filipinos can buy in the market.<br /><br />
"The cheapest thing that we can buy today is the marine product. So if not to really gamble and destroy the spawning ground because then it would result in an imbalance sa ating pagkain (to our food)," he said.<br /><br />

Duterte also revealed that Xi has already asked Chinese fishermen to leave Scarborough but is not sure whether the Chinese leader would fulfill their agreements.<br /><br />
"Ang alam ko pinaalis na rin niya ang mga Chinese na fisherman at parang wala ka nang makita diyan. 'Yun ang pinag-usapan namin ewan ko kung tutuparin nila," he said.<br /><br />
(I know he (Xi) already asked Chinese fishermen to leave so you won't see anyone anymore. That's what we discussed. I don't know if they will fulfill it.)<br /><br />
Filipino fishermen have been reportedly denied access to Scarborough Shoal by Chinese coast guards.<br /><br />
Last July, the Hague arbitration tribunal has ruled in favor of the Philippines on the disputed South China Sea which includes Scarborough Shoal. <br /><br />
According to the decision, Scarborough Shaol is a common fishing ground of Chinese, Filipino, and Vietnamese fishermen.<br /><br />
