Alright guys, here is the racist article released by a certain Chip Tsao from Hongkong.

The War At Home
March 27th, 2009
The Russians sank a Hong Kong freighter last month, killing the seven Chinese seamen on board. We can live with that—Lenin and Stalin were once the ideological mentors of all Chinese people. The Japanese planted a flag on Diàoyú Island. That’s no big problem—we Hong Kong Chinese love Japanese cartoons, Hello Kitty, and shopping in Shinjuku, let alone our round-the-clock obsession with karaoke.
But hold on—even the Filipinos? Manila has just claimed sovereignty over the scattered rocks in the South China Sea called the Spratly Islands, complete with a blatant threat from its congress to send gunboats to the South China Sea to defend the islands from China if necessary. This is beyond reproach. The reason: there are more than 130,000 Filipina maids working as $3,580-a-month cheap labor in Hong Kong. As a nation of servants, you don’t flex your muscles at your master, from whom you earn most of your bread and butter.
As a patriotic Chinese man, the news has made my blood boil. I summoned Louisa, my domestic assistant who holds a degree in international politics from the University of Manila, hung a map on the wall, and gave her a harsh lecture. I sternly warned her that if she wants her wages increased next year, she had better tell every one of her compatriots in Statue Square on Sunday that the entirety of the Spratly Islands belongs to China.
Grimly, I told her that if war breaks out between the Philippines and China, I would have to end her employment and send her straight home, because I would not risk the crime of treason for sponsoring an enemy of the state by paying her to wash my toilet and clean my windows 16 hours a day. With that money, she would pay taxes to her government, and they would fund a navy to invade our motherland and deeply hurt my feelings.
Oh yes. The government of the Philippines would certainly be wrong if they think we Chinese are prepared to swallow their insult and sit back and lose a Falkland Islands War in the Far East. They may have Barack Obama and the hawkish American military behind them, but we have a hostage in each of our homes in the Mid-Levels or higher. Some of my friends told me they have already declared a state of emergency at home. Their maids have been made to shout “China, Madam/Sir” loudly whenever they hear the word “Spratly.” They say the indoctrination is working as wonderfully as when we used to shout, “Long live Chairman Mao!” at the sight of a portrait of our Great Leader during the Cultural Revolution. I’m not sure if that’s going a bit too far, at least for the time being.
Well... I don't necessarily have to add anything to this issue. I just presented the article. It will be up to you to say something about it.On March 28 2009 at 8:30 pm (+8 Cebu Standard Time), please turn off the lights.
That's tonight, my friends.
This is a global effort by earthhour.org to send a message to our leaders about conservation.
Turning the lights off for about an hour is a symbolic way to participate in ways to prevent a wasteful lifestyle that is harmful to the environment.
60 means 60 minutes of conservation.
Help do your part. Turn out the lights... even for just an hour.

Hope this one helped.
Got any questions?
Post a comment.
Let's face it. One of the reasons why a company changes a brand name is because - that product sucks.
Recently, Globe Telecom relaunched Globe Visibility as Globe Tattoo.
New name, same old service.
For those consumers who want to try it, here's a little heads up based on experience:
It probably is one of the worst, if not the worst internet service in the Philippines.
Heck, a dial-up connection runs faster with a cheaper price.
At 5 pesos per 15 minutes, you're better off going to the nearest internet cafe or buying a dial-up card.
Note: You pay 10 pesos if you have been connected for 15 minutes and 1 second.
What's the Skiverz Advice?
If a line connection is available in your area, better take that opportunity.
Mobile internet is not yet fully mature in this country.
You're better off with cheaper, more stable alternatives - like dial-up. lol
Why am I receiving Friendster updates on my mobile phone EVEN IF I did not sign up for the service? Chances are, you are having the same problem.
For the past few days, I have been receiving unnecessary Friendster Bulletin Updates on my Globe handyphone. It's annoying plus they are charging me for it.
Tsk tsk...
This started happening a few days after I reloaded my prepaid account with 300 pesos and quickly saw my remaining balance vaporize into thin air.
Yup, thanks to their Friendster mobile I did not sign up for.
Anyways, to solve this problem, I came upon this solution.
Just point your web browsers to http://m.friendster.com
That's for the mobile version of Friendster which many see as a failed attempt to hold the Asian market, particularly the Philippines.
They send you spam. You get charged for it.
By the way, I've finally signed up for Facebook.
I personally don't like Facebook's layout, but hey at least they haven't sent me spam... (so far)
To continue the solution...
After you are able to log-in the mobile version of Friendster, quickly scroll down to the Menu called TEXT ALERTS.
Click it then Uncheck everything.
And click NO under the Receive text messages option.
Hope I helped.

The Philippine music scene lost somebody great today.
Francis Magalona died a few hours ago after battling leukemia.
One of my earliest musical influences, Francis Magalona was a man I respected and looked up to when I was a kid.
I still remember the time when I heard his song screaming "Mga Kababayan Ko!" for the first time and right there and then, being only a little kid, I seemed to know how being patriotic could feel good.
No other man has changed the Filipino rap scene as much as Francis M.
He could rap in both Tagalog and English and showed us that hiphop could fuel a political sentiment among others.
It showed us that music could open eyes just like how Jose Rizal did with his writings.
Much respect to the Man from Manila.
I hope the Philippine hiphop scene will learn from these words of wisdom:
"Ang magka-away, ipagbati." (Let enemies have peace with each other.)
We love you man!
Thank you for helping change the Philippines one song at a time.
