Quotes

...in the clean' image of Aquino so they don't see the real picture in which the same people are running the country," says one Filipina friend. "Same names, only different affiliations, even old enemies in the same parties."
"Mukhang 'di nakalimutan ng mga tao 'yung nangyari nung 2004. Wala kasing closure 'yun. Nung namatay si FPJ, 'di nagkaroon ng malinaw na ending 'yung Garci case" ani Casiple sa panayam niya sa GMA News Online noong Mayo 14
Pollster Social Weather Stations (SWS), based on its last pre-election survey held May 2-3 or just over a week ago, said that, "Given the statistical ties, the most probable final Team PNoy-UNA score is 9-3, with twelfth place going to either Honasan or Enrile who are both from UNA." In the May 10-11 Pulse Asia pre-election survey, it was 9 Team PNoy and 3 UNA or 10 Team PNoy and 2 UNA, with Honasan, Enrile and Jun Magsaysay of the...
...countrys Internet penetration remains low, which means social media sentiments are not representative of the views of the majority of the people. "According to Internet world statistics, its [PH internet access] still at 32.4%. If we look at the total number of registered voters based on Comelec data, we have about 52.3 million, 32.4% of which is a potential reach of voters online of about 17 million. Its still a sizable number but not the majority, he said. Arao said this is the reason why candidates who initiated social media campaigns before the elections should have also made sure that their online presence was translated to other media. If you look at studies by Pulse Asia through the years, TV is still the most pervasive, the most powerful and the most credible medium. Its the virality of the social media content that defines the dissemination of that particular information, he said. Instead of old versus new media, what we are seeing is the convergence, not just the different components of new media, but also the components of new and old media. The convergence factor is considered by the campaign strategists in this election, he added. However, IBM Philppines chief technologist Lope Doromal said it is interesting to note the things happening in social media still mirror whats also happening in traditional media in the Philippines. There wasnt really a big discussion, a big event, a big topic that went out [on TV] thats very different from what people are talking about in social media. Maybe in a few years, that may change but based on this past election, theres still a close relationship between what is happening in social and traditional media, Doromal said. Advantage of social media"
