A Rajasthan farmer who buried Rs 5 lakh in his field to keep it safe forgot the hiding spot. He later found the damaged cash while ploughing for the sowing season. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/rajasthan-farmer-buries-rs-5-lakh-forgets-spot-damaged-cash-p92fiue0?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Rajasthan #Cash #Farmer

@tizilogic I’ll take that to be a rhetorical question or a form of sarcasm aimed at the #AISlop industry. I on the other hand can think of many practical uses for such infrastructure, none of which include #LLM #GenAISlop hosting.

PS. It is worth noting that #ComputingInfrastructure has a limited number of years for #ROI (as short as five years) before it is superceded by cheaper, faster, better technology. I cannot see #TechBros achieving anything near the #profits requried to pay for all their *gear* within such a short time frame. They will bleed #cash and #crash before those 5 years are out IMHO — maybe a little longer if financial #markets find other ways to hide the accumulating #debt with some new *derivatives* clever enough to dupe #finance #speculators and the financial #press.

I wonder why YouTube recommended me a 1989 episode of #BBC #Crimewatch - turns out there was a 1982 #GolfGTI used as a getaway vehicle in one of the segments (multiple armed #robberies on train stations in South #London)

There was a lot more #crime then compared to today, much of it seemed to be fuelled by rampant inequality (as well as #cars being way less secure than today, and a lot more #cash being handled by businesses)

in 2025 someone in same part of London had their Mk1 Golf (just normal model, but now a #ClassicCar) nicked, but it was all over Facebook and multiple folk saw it and called #Metpol - thieves soon got nicked and he got his car back..

DTI Sees More Jobs And Investments Rising In Metro Manila Following Removal Of Ecozone Ban

Following the lifting of the ban on information technology economic zones in Metro Manila, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) expects the new investments to come in as well as new jobs to be generated, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin report. Some parts in boldface…

The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) expects the information technology and business process management (IT-BPM) sector to generate more jobs and attract new investments after the lifting of the ban on IT economic zones in Metro Manila.

In a statement on Tuesday, July 28, Trade Secretary Cristina Roque welcomed the issuance of Administrative Order (AO) No. 45, which seeks to ease some of the restrictions under the broader prohibition on the processing and evaluation of applications for ecozones imposed during the previous administration.

“This major policy reform is a resounding victory for the IT-BPM sector and a decisive step forward in strengthening the Philippines’ position as a premier global destination for digital services,” the DTI chief said.

AO 45, signed by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., excludes applications for the establishment of IT centers and IT parks from the ongoing moratorium on ecozone applications.

The order maintains the prohibition on all other ecozone applications in National Capital Region (NCR), as embodied in AO 18, issued by former President Rodrigo Duterte in 2019. The policy was implemented to encourage development and spur investments in the provinces.

With the lifting of the ban, Roque said the government is addressing long-standing investor demand from IT-BPM firms looking to open or expand in NCR while also creating more opportunities for real estate development.

“As we open new avenues for growth in Metro Manila alongside our continuous push to develop regional IT hubs, we are positioning the IT-BPM sector to generate thousands of high-quality jobs, attract foreign direct investments, and ensure economic growth nationwide,” she said.

The DTI earlier endorsed the proposal of the investment promotion agency (IPA) Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) to lift the moratorium to provide more options for companies seeking to locate in key central business districts in the capital region.

PEZA Director General Tereso Panga earlier told reporters that the ban has essentially forced firms to operate in existing ecozones, restricting their expansion plans.

“We invite our global partners and prospective investors to take full advantage of this renewed momentum and build their future here in the Philippines,” Roque said.

IT-BPM firms operate in ecozones to avail themselves of the fiscal and nonfiscal incentives provided by the government.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you consider Metro Manila suitable for the establish of new economic zones as well as the expansion of existing economic zones? Do you believe that the demand by IT-BPM firms for expansion in Metro Manila is real?

Time For The Philippines To Revisit Nuclear Energy Production

During his recent State of the Nation Address (SONA), Philippine President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr., declared that it is time for the nation to revisit nuclear energy production, according to a news report by GMA News.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. on Monday said it is time to revisit nuclear energy production, as he touted some 200 energy projects in the pipeline in a bid to boost the country’s power supply and bring down power rates.

In his fifth State of the Nation Address (SONA), Marcos said the administration is working to revisit nuclear energy, as it is already being used in medicine, agriculture, water filtration, and the upcycling of plastic.

“Pushing the envelope further, perhaps it is time for us to revisit nuclear energy production,” he said, noting confidence in its capacity “to reinforce our energy security and bring down the cost of electricity in our country.”

“Titiyakin nating ito ay ligtas. Titiyakin din nating maipaliwanag nang mabuti sa publiko ang magandang dulot sa atin ng enerhiyang nukleyar” he added.

(We will make sure that this is safe. We will also make sure to explain the benefits of nuclear energy properly to the public.)

According to Marcos, the administration has a pipeline covering some 200 power projects across the country that will have a combined capacity of nearly 10,000 megawatts (MW) — 45 of which have already been completed, while 31 are set to be completed this year. The remaining 124 are targeted to be completed by 2028.

These are on top of 1,700 megawatts that the projects will contribute to energy storage systems, which Marcos said will boost energy security.

“Ang mga proyektong ito ay napabilis nang dahil sa mga bagong patakaran at proseso na nagpapadali ng pagnenegosyo dito sa ating bansa, para sa mga Pilipino at dayuhang negosyante,” he said.

(These projects were expedited because of the new regulations and processes that eased doing business here in the country for Filipinos and foreign investors.)

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think the highlighting of nuclear energy production in the State of the Nation address will lead to breakthroughs for a nuclear-powered Philippines? Are people in your local community still afraid of nuclear energy? Do you think unchecked corruption inside the government of the Philippines will derail any nuclear-related efforts?

Myth: 2% inflation is harmless.

Reality: the Rule of 72 says prices double in 36 years at 2%.

Cash earning 0% halves in real spending power over the same stretch.

Money sat at 0% is losing you spending power every single year it sits there.

America Tags Philippines With 12.5% Tariff Over Forced Labor Concerns

The Philippines, which is already experiencing slower economic growth, higher inflation and having trouble attracting foreign investment, saw its exports to the United States subject to a higher 12.5% tariff as the Trump administration is convinced that the country failed to prevent the entry of goods produced with forced labor, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

The country’s exports to the United States (US) are now subject to a higher 12.5-percent tariff after the Trump administration determined that the Philippines has failed to prevent the entry of goods produced with forced labor.

In a notice on Friday morning, July 24 (Philippine time), the Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) said it is imposing a 12.5-percent tariff on the Philippines, in accordance with the directive of US President Donald Trump.

The USTR earlier included the Philippines in its investigation into the US’ top 60 trading partners as it sought to crack down on imports made with forced labor that were found to be harmful to American commerce.

In a report on the probe’s findings, the USTR said the Philippines “has failed to impose and effectively enforce a forced labor import prohibition.”

Apart from the Philippines, 40 other economies are subject to the 12.5-percent tariff.

“The US has had a forced labor import ban for nearly a century, and rigorously enforces it. It’s well past time for our trading partners to do the same,” said USTR Ambassador Jamieson Greer.

“Today’s action will begin to correct what is both a human rights abuse and distortive trade practice to improve the welfare of workers everywhere,” he added.

The USTR said it would exempt certain products from the tariff, including goods that cannot be produced in sufficient quantities or at reasonable prices in the US, and products that could cause economy-wide disruptions if they were subjected to the tariffs.

Philippine goods exempt from the 12.5-percent tariff include most of the country’s major exports to the US, including semiconductors, its top export commodity. Also exempted are agricultural commodities such as coconuts, pineapples, and bananas, as well as raw minerals such as nickel ores and concentrates.

The US remains the Philippines’ largest export market, accounting for $13.46 billion, or 15.9 percent, of the country’s total exports in 2025.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think the Philippines has been negligent on monitoring the entry of goods produced with forced labor? Does this new economic development dampen your trust in the government of the Philippines?

Palestinian Arrested In Quezon City For Stealing Money Bag

For some time now, I have been monitoring the criminal acts committed by people who are present in different countries as foreigners. Here in the Philippines, a Palestinian man was arrested in Quezon City for stealing a bag containing a lot of cash from the café of a hotel, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

As it turns out, the Palestinian already has a history of committing other forms of crime. Could it be possible that, apart from violence and terrorism, theft and an obsession of committing crime are parts of the Palestinian nature?

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A 36-year-old Palestinian man was arrested after allegedly taking a money bag containing P5,020 and an empty cash box from a hotel café on Timog Avenue in Barangay South Triangle, Quezon City, at around 11:06 p.m. on Thursday, July 23.

The suspect, identified as “Ham,” was intercepted by hotel security personnel at the establishment’s exit after the incident was detected through the hotel’s CCTV monitoring system.

Initial investigation showed that the suspect entered the café and allegedly took the money bag and empty cash box without the knowledge or consent of the 24-year-old male cashier.

Recovered from the suspect were P5,020 in various peso bills and coins, the cash bag, the empty cash box, and a backpack.

Personnel of Kamuning Police Station (PS 10) later responded and took custody of the suspect from the hotel security personnel.

Further verification showed that the suspect had previous criminal records for estafa, unjust vexation, resistance and disobedience to a person in authority, use of a fictitious name, and concealing his true name in October 2025, as well as theft in May 2026.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Are there a lot of Palestinians living in your local community right now? Are you aware of the fact that a lot of Palestinians follow Islamic terrorists as their leaders? How many Palestinians do you think are present all over the Philippines today? Did you notice an increase of the number of foreign Islamists in your local community over the past twelve months? Do you think the national government is secretly allowing Palestinians to enter the Philippines as high-priority refugees with immigration in mind?

Palestinian Arrested In Quezon City For Stealing Money Bag

For some time now, I have been monitoring the criminal acts committed by people who are present in different countries as foreigners. Here in the Philippines, a Palestinian man was arrested in Quezon City for stealing a bag containing a lot of cash from the café of a hotel, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

As it turns out, the Palestinian already has a history of committing other forms of crime. Could it be possible that, apart from violence and terrorism, theft and an obsession of committing crime are parts of the Palestinian nature?

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A 36-year-old Palestinian man was arrested after allegedly taking a money bag containing P5,020 and an empty cash box from a hotel café on Timog Avenue in Barangay South Triangle, Quezon City, at around 11:06 p.m. on Thursday, July 23.

The suspect, identified as “Ham,” was intercepted by hotel security personnel at the establishment’s exit after the incident was detected through the hotel’s CCTV monitoring system.

Initial investigation showed that the suspect entered the café and allegedly took the money bag and empty cash box without the knowledge or consent of the 24-year-old male cashier.

Recovered from the suspect were P5,020 in various peso bills and coins, the cash bag, the empty cash box, and a backpack.

Personnel of Kamuning Police Station (PS 10) later responded and took custody of the suspect from the hotel security personnel.

Further verification showed that the suspect had previous criminal records for estafa, unjust vexation, resistance and disobedience to a person in authority, use of a fictitious name, and concealing his true name in October 2025, as well as theft in May 2026.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Are there a lot of Palestinians living in your local community right now? Are you aware of the fact that a lot of Palestinians follow Islamic terrorists as their leaders? How many Palestinians do you think are present all over the Philippines today? Did you notice an increase of the number of foreign Islamists in your local community over the past twelve months? Do you think the national government is secretly allowing Palestinians to enter the Philippines as high-priority refugees with immigration in mind?
