397 govt workers get food stamps in Dec..

Bloged in My F**king opinions, News on the islands by ROK Friday September 14, 2007

Its interesting how the break down of the 397 positions that will cut from the budget.

Tinian : 129
Rota: 111
Saipan : 47
Governor’s office: 67

Does that mean Tinian and Rota has more redundant positions then Saipan, or people in Saipan has better connections to not get fired. Also … the math doesn’t work out, 129+111+47+67 = 354, so 43 other positions that are getting cut from where?

Must be more ghost employee .. I guess even they are not immune to the budget slashes.

Mm times are really bad now days..
Gas prices have skyrocketed..
Most people can’t afford to pay there power bills..
Government spending is … actually the government is broke..
We have no money for our schools and teachers..
Our hospital can’t treat a simple cut because its understaffed and … actually we don’t have any real doctors..
We have packs of wild dogs that roams Garapan hotel street our prime tourist areas. (God I can’t wait till a tourist gets bitten!! Oh what fun we’ll have then)..

Do you know what we need to solve all this problem !! 2 MORE FRANKEN LAWMAKERS.. because you know more heads are better then none .. actually I think we are better off with none.

This is funny, it says “ the courts also said the increase, which is part of the redistricting plan, is needed to compensate for population changes since the last apportionment in 1990.” Are people just openly smoking crack in capital hill… have they not notice the ever-decreasing population in the CNMI…

So one has to wonder how much this is going to cost the community. But I guess all will be forgiven in the next family BBQ.

BYOB!!!

I smell a dirty RAT!

I say again and again.. STOP allowing these bogus schools from being set up in the CNMI. Everyone knows its scam, everyone knows it’s a loop hole that allows unsavory immigrants who normally wouldn’t have been allowed into the CNMI legally. Most immigrants aged 20+ who come to the CNMI using the educational visa are not here to study but to work. Case in hand I would like to point out a certain male Chinese work that was a student in the now closed down Saipan University. This person was an air conditioner engineer in China that was allowed to come into CNMI under the guise that he was going to get an education in Saipan. Threw out the whole ordeal of the Saipan University scandal he was in the front light of the media frenzy because unlike the others he spoke some English. He clearly stated many times over he had no intention of wanting to study but to work in Saipan. He came into CNMI under the false pretense of being a student, he clearly knew he was breaking the law. Now about 1year later, I see him in our local post office picking up mail and living here in Saipan. This person broke the rules, he got threw a very easy loop hole and now he is working.. legally or illegally in the CNMI. How many others are here like him.

Now I am not saying he is not a hard working citizen, nor am I saying he is a criminal. But it is clear he broke the law knowingly, and yet we don’t punish this type of behavior. I think that is the basic problem on the current government on the island. Everyone turns a blinds eye to anything that doesn’t directly affect him/her. But o Nelly if that person/company/topic/event somehow makes him/her lose money or affects him/her furthering his/her career, they are going to come down on it like a rat in a cheese factor .. a dog in a chicken cope, a cat in a bird cage.. etc etc

Prime example would be the son of Gov. Beigno R. Fital, Jason Fitial who I like to point out is a rat, a whistle blower. He worked for the AMU (American Mediscience University) as a consultant, he help them get the inside government connection to speed up the process for the school in Saipan, since 2006. He knew back then what the school was doing but back then we was paid well. Heck even up to April of this year the current Governor Fitial was show casein AMU as a positive force on the island. In the end the School no longer wants to pay him for his serves and he no longer sees AMU as a cash cow. Jason rats them out to now further his career, and makes it seems that he cares one bit for the local community. Do I have any proof of this …… nope nada.. nothing but see that’s the best part about owning my own blogg. But please people… one can make the connection easily.

Baghdad bob’s cultural dancers

Bloged in News on the islands by ROK Tuesday September 11, 2007

A friend of mind commented this morning while getting some breakfast that the comments made by our lustrous governor Benigno R. Fitial to be similar to Baghdad Bobs comments during the desert storm conflict.

Comments like “ They are illegals”, “ We’re processing them and they will soon be deported”, “ they deliberately destroyed their passports”, and you would think this is the type of comment made by our favorite clown from Taotao Tano. I must say I hope this was a wake up call to congress and everyone up on the hill, to the caliber of personality that is running the show in the CNMI.

I have to give props to press secretary Charles P. Reyes Jr. for doing his job, but I really have to re-quote him from the same article, “ We respect their freedom of speech but don’t misrepresent the truth.” Sorry Charles trying to do damage control after about half a month from the event is one thing, but everyone heard the Governor say what he said and not what he meant to say.

On another story from Variety, it is reported that the Philippine authorities are now keeping an eye on new Filipino nightclub dancers in the CNMI. Apparently under Philippine law, Filipinos are not allowed to work abroad as nude dancers but only as “cultural dancers”… I have to admit there are some real ignorant people out there in the world. But did these people just figure out these girls were stripping in these so-called adult club establishments. It seems with the recent public light on the labor case problem with Kings and Moonlight, people are coming out of the wood works to protest against it. When for years everyone knew how these establishment works and what happened in them. There was no mystery to what went on there, and what the girls do.

You know what still, if the Mama-san from Moonlight and Kings is smart, she should start naming off names of all the local politicians, lawyers, prominent members of this fine government who frequent these establishments, and enjoy the company of the “cultural dancers” in the private rooms.

POWER I need more power !!

Oh yea, today was a wonderful day in Saipan. The small amount of sleep I got after last nights power outage was nothing compared to what was to come. I was toss and turning last night, I even contemplated giving myself up to the mosquitoes in exchange for a cool breeze outside. Which their wasn’t. Then apparently we had an EMP device go off in the vicinity of Saipan because around 11am. We lost everything, network, phone line, cell phone, and did I mention network. Think about it … no internet on this island .. its mind boggling!

Anyways thank God I had both a Saipan cell and a Pti cell phone on me.. because what do you know my PTI cell phone worked all day. But both my Saipan cell, I-connect both didn’t come active till around 5pm. Man talk about a kick in the nads, I felt sorry for both companies.

Okay did I mention I had no Internet!!

And the worse part I had like buck fifty on me and the atm was down and no one was taking credit cards because the banking lines was also down… it was a sad sad day .

You know for a small country, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands has made a lot of sacrifices in the past. And on June 26, 2007 we have learned of another fallen solider, brother, friend and a dad to many. Former police officer Joe Junior Gogue Charfauros 33 was killing while serving his country on June 20, 2007. He left behind his wife and three children. Let us pray all these brave men and women’s lives have not been sacrificed in vain.

A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.
