rice shortage


i still can't believe that third world country philippines experiences rice shortage. its just not true. the truth is that the price soared up to the sky but there was no shortage at all. rice is one of the major farm products (i really don't know how to call it) next to corn. almost all provinces have rice paddies. what do they plant there? kangkong? of course rice. where's the harvest? maybe they were keeping them somewhere. as far as i know there's really no shortage. it was only hyped by the media and the government. we really do not need to import from neighboring countries. they are just doing this to divert our attention. to forget the ongoing investigation to those corrupt officials. see jun lozada was suddenly forgotten because of this! 

its really fun living in the philippines. lots of thick faces (direct translation). the businessmen, politician, businessmen-cum-politician. greed. i wonder how in the world will they spent all these money in their lifetime. don't wanna think about it.
