isang pakikipagbalik-tanaw sa isang kaibigan...

• Rannie Agustin: Idol ka dida.. ako ngani it na pa long hair kay huna ko nga long hair ka la guihap.. over age na kita para SUARA. In the first place waray na an SUARA. Waray ito maka survived han crises among progressives. But one is correct in our analyses. Youth is very fluid and transient. Waray permanente. Ha pagkayana it usa nga failure naton, an aton members and sector in general dominated la guihapon han culture han panahon ni Antonio Gramsci. Common sense han proletariat caused us to fail. An aton alternative wara maka survived. It kadam-an na corrupt han prevailing system. others enjoy it, some are scared to be sidelined or persecuted. Look at yourself, do you think your barber cut is the standard in the society? Is it the only haircut acceptable to the society? what about your financial status? our comrades would like to be rich and struggling to be rich for acceptance and recognition in the society. Look at me, I am poor still, rubbish and sometimes filthy, but I am human being and struggling to be accepted as equal among human beings regardless of social status. Waray ako common sense.
Gramsci has great influence on me. I established an advertising company. With the belief that media with alternative information and educative format of broadcasting and journalism and creativity, values formation aimed to our envisioned society will materialise. We catalysed and voiced out our aspirations on different avenues bur we must work with the peoples we have had in our struggles. This is in line with Organic Intellectuals objectives. but media is the best medium for transforming the individuals instead of immersing to different and several sectors. Now I am starting on our charity trust. Education sector with great consideration to family values and community development. I believe that revolutionising oneself and individuals through education will set us free.
guin-mingaw ka ha akon? damo it akon guin biyahe... tikang han akon ka exposed as Chairman han aton Student Council nga hayag nga dire na support it national democracy, pumutok an akon ngaran ha UP progressive student leaders. an aton SR hi Sally duro it kabigit kay guinpa padisqualify ko an ira candidate for SR. KJay madire kita nga sige it pakigbisog ha sulod nga ND na framework pero bis talagudti nga issue ha UP dire nareresolve or simply overlooked. Scientific man ada it call, so kinahanglan it problema ha UP students sector, it cause it angay i-approach hin sakto nga istratehiya. UP diliman and los banos candidate an nag squeezed ha akon para malikayan an dumot han mga affected groups. dire ito dida natima. huna ko okay na. pero han pag star ngan pag area ko ha nort (samar), may nagtimbre nga markado ako. so lunmakat ako hin tigda. waray ako makagsarit ug turn over han akon, D & R han aton SUARA VP. Nag immersed ako in different sectors, hasta nga unulpot an time nga Iguinrindog namon ni Shalemar Buenaventura an AdPact Advertising. Pero nawara it kumpanya ha sakto nga dalan ngan purpose. Profit and nagin sole objective ito. Hi padi Shalemar, may common sense to the extent ne naging sakit it nga malignant. Naging GREEDY ngan TUSO. Iya iguin issue an mga authorised capital for subscriptionngan iya guin purchase it kadm-an (waray board resolution ngan akon approval, Chairman ako ito ngan waray approval from SEC) tapos the following days nagdeclare hiya hin DIVIDENDS. hiya it gumanansya hin tini-upay. kami ni Cyril, chuck mao, mga stockholders nga waray katagi hin dividends. Kaso. ESTAFA and Falsification of documents against Shalemar and Adelina Atienza (auntie ko nga nag finance ha mga stockholders), et al. An problema, Napreso liwat ako ha Mandaluyong in 2005, na busy liwat ako han akon kaso. napreso liwat ako han 2009 ngada ha 2010. hasta pa yana, waray ito aaksyone han commission ni Etta Rosales, kon nakilala ka, IPER ito hiya an hadi.
An nakadi ako ha Norte, usa ako han volunteer ha human rights group, ngan confidential OI. An aton taktika, immersion ngan pag-edukar han sektor. pero an pan hitabo nga guin tahapan ako nga "counter revolutionary". An mga tawo ni Tabara ha norte, naalrama han aton istorya, analisis, ngan pama-agi. an panahon nga nawara ako ha grupo, usa nga panhibuot han Ginoo. Narealise ko na sayop an taktika ito nga panahon ngan ha pagkayana. Dire kinahanglan hin face to face, ngan nasupak ito ha liberating o dialogical na proseso. banking or brainwashing la guihapon it akon pagkita han OI style naton an hadi.. Usa nga sayop ha analyses an TATSULOK nga stuctura han sociedad kun hain natikang an pagtalumpigos ngan pagpugong ngan pagabusar han mga katungod ug pagkatawo han mga pobre. An ruling elite dire man gud nakontrol han mga middle bases han struktura. An nakada ha butnga an nakontrol han mga elite nga a-ada ha tuktok. Pinaagi han salapi ngan influensya. an ruling elite kaupod an nakada ha butnga, may struggle para power, wealth and resources against lower ug lowest base. it lower base ug lowest base may ada guihapon conflict among themselves. Asya it akon experiences han akon mga immersion ha durudilain nga organisasyon ug sector. Kitaon naton, ha sakob hin usa ng pobre nga pamilya, natikang an konflict. may mga struggles for different interests. paggawas ha panimalay, ha neighborhood ug community may conflict guihapon kay asya naman it upbringing. asya liwat ito ha sakob hin mga guiririkohi nga mga pamilya ug communities. ada ha cultura, atittude han tagsa tagsa nga individual. sanglit an media ug eskuwelahan and pinaka epektibo nga pama-agi para han pag-edukar, dedukar han mga tao. An immersion ko han mga urhi nga mga panahon, dire pag brainwash, ug pag edukar. pagkuha hin sakto nga mga panhitabo para mas sakto nga impormasyon ngan analyses. Solusyon pinaagi ha media ug eskuwelahan. Pero sakto la-guihapon an analysis of apparatuses of the elites ni Gramsci. An korte, police, jail para la protektahan it mga interes han mga ruling elite ug mga riko. Ha kaso ko kan Shalemar ha Mandaluyong City, wara ito nahitabo ha mga kamot ni Esteban Tacla Jr., hasta pa yana kaso ito nga Falsification of Documents ngan Syndicated Estafa. An pagprotektar ko han akon tatay ha Mandaluyong City, para guihapon han proteksyon han mga kablasanon han ira mga katungod, ako an napreso. Hi Neptali Gonzales II, mayor an hadto nga panahon, gumamit hin apparatus para protektahan niya it interes han mga riko (negosyante ha Mandaluyong City) bisan waray pa considerar ug respeto han mga pobre. Dire ito dida natima, duha nga Judge an nag issue hin warrant of arrest ha akon han 2007. Guinpapreso ako han usa nga Judge han 2009. nakagawas ako han 2010.
one or more may argue that my experiences are isolated cases. but i could contest that i am tellin is just my personal experience. i do not mention the other experiences of others and situations that I witnessed in different parts of the philippines. Local governments are the most violators and abusers. The only unique person i have seen in my whole journey is Mayor Sarah Duterte who tried to stop the apparatus of (this time not the ruling elite but of the businessmen- sector which i mentioned earlier to be the controller of the ruling elite). The nationl government's inaction approves and reinforces the abuses. Along my journey, I managed to be a volunteer to groups of progressives after few years in to cooling part from the groups which mislabeled and misjudged me. I never been a Counter revolutionary. Che Guevarra define true revolutionary to be on who is guided with love. We do not agitate but we always wanted to understand things past and present, sectors and their individual dynamics and tried them to understand, strategies and tactics. As Secretary General of an alliance of progressive groups, i tried to understand the membership and tried hard for them to understand as well. But i failed. i tried to establish the clear vision of the alliance to make it walk within necessary trails with appropriate steps. Alliance that has lost its purpose of existence to heavy intervention to activities and causes of of each member-organistaion. It was only the UP Tacloban Economics Professor who has a program which was in line and consistent to the alliance. but it gained no support and remain unpopular. the rest is deviant. Do you imagine our situation (considering our most recent and present experiences) if the movement's struggle succeed? Joma as president or chairman of the Philippines and his pulitburo and KT-KS members will consist the legislative body and cabinet members. since the fall of marcos dictatorship, the progressive intellectuals and comrades managed to occupy the legislative and executive bodies of the Philippines. later on the judiciary. These comradres could be seen still in the ranks of the congressmen -lower house and senate, cabinet and courts and quasi-judicial courts. but are there any changes that we could say truly revolutionry. if joma succeeded, there was loss of multitude lives. the movement broke to tople the government in different forms of struggle. elections, appointment and civil service careerism. a lot succeeded. But where are we now after Marcos era? Abuses of Marcos remain. Injustices remain. Only the faces of the presidents the revolutionised, from marcos face, he turned out to be the housewife of a late senator. then this wife's face changed to a tobacco smoking face and later to a face of a moustached tough face and transform again to a housewife and now a bald nerd-looking or genius-looking president. What happened to the comrdes who made it to the top of the base? Common sense? lack of education? wrong nalysis resulting to wrong strategies and tactics? or wrong set of objectives?
ha kayana? starting ako... ha rania Child Development Center. guin-ngaranan ko ito hin rania (rani agustin) kay bisan wara na masiring nga ha future nga iya ito kay ngaran ko ito mismo. it akon experience kanda shalemar, guinangkon niya it amon kumpanya. nga bisan singko sentimo waray hiya an nagtikang kami. it concept tio akon guihapon. pero nahulat la ako han court order nga ibalik ha akon ngatanan it akon mga documents (which are illegally searched and seized by the Manadaluyong City police, task force and barangay officials), maipapadayon ko na it akon ESTAFA charges against Shalemar ngan makagtikang it AdPact Corporation hin panibag-o nga pacing. Dire puros la greed han salapi. Long term plan ito mag produce hin mga alternative creative commercials, ads, etc. and majoin kami hin motion picture. it will benefit our Child Development Center as well in Film and visual educative media. Ha pagkayana, nadelay ni Satanas it amon charity registration in UK. Our registration is denied due to my address and lack of qualified trustees. We look for other countrie to operate. In fact i am tired, gusto ko na mag parasa rasa ha usa nga island, cruising. pero may duty to my Lord demanded me to move on. ngan waray pa ako wife and children....sanglit sige pa... struggle la guihapon...

Note: SUARA is not the same Suara- Bangsa Moro Party-List in the Philippines and without any relationship or affiliation.

Hi Rannie, i Googled Adpact & came upon your article. Unfortunately I lack understanding in other local dialects. I am having problems with Adpact & I was kinda hoping that your article will help me. Is it okay if we talk in private? My email address is aogabriel@gmail.com Maraming Salamat!
