Republic Act 9775 Anti-Child Pornography Act of 2009


Child Pornography is a big NO. No matter how desperate you are to earn money for you to live, it does not give you the benefit of the doubt to produce or do malicious things. The Philippines, with endemic poverty helping to push a rise in violence, has become the world's largest reported source of online child sexual exploitation. According to the seven-year report of the International Justice Mission aid community, parents and relatives is accountable for promoting the violence in almost all situations. 

In the former US colony, the mixture of English fluency and high internet access helped make the nation a "global hotspot" for child pornography, the study said. In the three years to 2017, the proportion of Philippine internet addresses used to host child pornography tripled, said the report, which based its results on data obtained by data from law enforcement. In the three years to 2017, the proportion of Philippine internet addresses used to host child pornography tripled, said the report, which based its results on data obtained by data from law enforcement. There are kids who need rescue now but rescue begins with timely identification and robust reporting, "There are children who need rescue now, but rescue starts with timely detection and robust reporting."

This affects not only the country, but also the Filipinos living abroad. This brings a bad and negative perception toward Filipinos. Imagine, that we are the number 1 country that produces the most number of this kind photos and videos. In the Philippines, many are poor. They don’t even have enough money to feed their empty stomachs. Because of this, they are willing to engage in such practice just to make money.

We should help one another and bring peace to our beloved country. We, Filipinos, are hard-headed. There are many laws but we don't even follow one from them. Mostly, those people who are in the government side or part are the ones who commit mistakes.

Be aware and stop child pornography.

Republic Act 10586 Anti-Drunk and Drugged Driving Law of 2013

Image
  There is a saying that goes “Don’t drink and drive.   But many Filipinos who drive believe that they can tolerate a large amount of alcohol and still be able to make concrete decision behind the wheel, they’ll drink… then  drive.   Drunk and drugged driving is a big concern to police because the drivers are likely to get involved in fatal vehicle crashes.   Although the police are mostly concerned with innocent people who are killed in alcohol-related crashes, it is in fact the drunk driver or his passenger who is most likely to be killed.   One of the main concerns about the Anti-Drunk and Drugged Driving Act (R.A. 10586) is the implementing rules and regulations. The problem starts with the process.   “An officer can only proceed with screening a driver when there is reasonable ground to believe that the driver is under the influence of alcohol or drugs.   So how is that?   After witnessing a traffic offense.   It means that a danger on the road needs to happen first before check
