"Two US Citizens Among 19 Slain in Philippines ‘Massacre’
By Andrew Lee, Contributor May 25, 2026
Negros Island, #Phillipines — On April 19, 2026, the 79th Infantry Battalion of the Armed Forces of the Philippines killed 19 individuals on Negros Island. Nine of the slain have been identified as civilians, including two Filipino Americans — Kai Dana-Rene Sorem of Seattle and Lyle Prijoles of Hayward, California. Also among the dead were Alyssa Alano, a 22-..

“The US Air Force recently deployed F-22 Raptors to Basa Air Base in the Philippines for Exercise Cope Thunder 26-1 — framing it as a show of force across the First Island Chain. In reality, it exposed how poorly the F-22 is suited for a Pacific conflict against China”

An education system that's producing graduates who were never properly taught to read in the first place is becoming a problem in the call center hub that is the Philippines. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/04/08/asia-pacific/society/kids-reading-philippines-call-center/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #society #phillipines #southeastasia #children #education #jobs #outsourcing #ferdinandmarcosjr

Early signs seem to point to Asian electric vehicle makers such as China's BYD and Vietnam's VinFast benefiting from a surge in crude oil prices due to the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/03/20/companies/byd-oil-surge-benefit/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #china #byd #electricvehicles #phillipines #vietnam #iran #carmakers

Vegan Rising PH 2025: Sustaina...

Jose Maria Sison, founder of the Communist Party of the Philippines, died three years ago on December 12th.

Until his last breath, he represented the armed revolutionary struggle in the Philippines. Watch Sison explain how, before a mass movement can build socialism, the capitalist class will "unleash fascism...just to hide the roots of the crisis."

[Full movie] They Call Her Cleopatra Wong (1978)

Premise

An Interpol top cop teams up with Filipino police to take down a counterfeit money operation threatening multiple Asian countries.

Trailer

• Youtube (4:3, better quality than the full “widescreen” movie on Fawesome)

Full Movie

Unless otherwise stated, all full movie links I post are for free, no account required, licensed (AFAIK, IANAL) streaming VOD in English (or original language with English subtitles) and work at time of writing in my location, Mexico. Availability and language options may be different in your location. Asterisk by the one I watched.

Comments

• Got a bit slow in the middle but picked up later on.
• The version on Fawesome is unbelievably overcropped, meaning close shots show you practically nothing. I think it was cropped from cinema widescreen to 4:3 for TV/VHS, then cropped again to make a “widescreen” version again. Compare to the trailer for the restored version
• Music & dubbing often fun. The accents of the monks! OMG
• If you like seeing nuns get shot, this is your jam! Strawberry jam! (Inside joke for those who’ve seen the film.)(Admittedly, 95% of the shot “nuns” are actually gangsters in disguise.)
• Cleo uses explodey arrows to blow up a chopper years before Rambo!
• Started a franchise, the 3rd film Pay & Die a.k.a. The Devil’s Three is on Youtube. (I haven’t found a legit free source for the 2nd film, Dynamite Johnson.)
• Singapore news CNA even made a documentary on their local hero: Who Is Cleopatra Wong? Hunting Down Singapore’s 70s International Action Movie Star
• Poster image from the Cleopatra Wong merch from the Asian Film Archive: https://asianfilmarchive.org/shop/they-call-her-cleopatra-wong-a3-risograph-print/

Screenshots

What’s her name again?

This is typical of what the exciting closeups look like in a supercropped version. Half a face over here, half a head over there, and a load of background in the middle. (That’s supposed to be an intense fight, btw.)

Loads of barrels! But still fewer than the Equalizer 2000

For comparison, here’s a shot from the trailer for the restored version

Cleo about uses explodey arrows (triple!) on the baddie’s chopper
