Times of Change

The world indeed has gotten smaller. You can go any place you desire using your mind. Learn the cultures, languages and meet people from different parts of the world by  merely sitting down using a computer connected to the world wide web.  Staggering discoveries of  new and old  things that have  boggled our minds ever  since. Meeting different people from the past and the present, acquiring  knowledge,  enjoying entertainment, all at the tip of the  fingers.  Man has started having  different views about  the history of the world, from the absurd up to  the informative and legit.  Man has started unraveling  the truth. 

Most people log on to the computer primarily to be social with people whom they know, have known and wanted to know more about.Some log on to make their work efficient and effective in making money.  Some log on to play games. Some, to watch videos and hear free music, watch television reruns, movies or whatever their eyeballs desire. Some just log in just for the heck of it. And some, to learn more about this wonderful creation of man called information technology. 

The industrial revolution has  proven one point in man's history, it sacrificed much of the environment, for  it  is a precursor  to this emerging  kind of revolution where electronics and information technology dominates. The industrial revolution have done enough damage. It had created a society and environment leading to a current alarming  situation that needs to be minimized and fixed. With information so rampant, nothing in this world is a secret anymore. From gossips to the most obscure information that had been shelved for years, assumptions and facts appearing  so  transparent. From conspiracy theories, historical cover ups, constructing   a simple battery,  powering  cars  with water and eliminating the power grid, the world's biggest library offers  information for free. That is the power of the internet, the power of sharing and  networking, the power of information technology.

The world has   started  to change. Most things human beings use had been innovated,and it  will continue to evolve. This  resulted to the kind of thinking the average homo sapien reasons out.   Man, ever since has long craved to live life more easier, more effective, more efficient. Society  is  entering  a new kind of revolution metamorphosing people into think tanks .These transformations   made  people,specially in oppressed countries;like Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Bahrain and even the  Philippines; to revolt against their leaders.These people  have been oppressed beyond the imagination of a freedom loving people, a natural instinct each one posess.       Expect more revolts to come.  People in Africa, most specially the one's who have been oppressed for so, will  shift into a new kind of social order. The posibility of seeing  Africa being the next world power is close at hand. Only if they get their acts together and work as one continent, ridding their country of corruption and old school type of thinking and governance. Their predecessors may  have been oppressed, but not theiir children, for they had been educated, making them view  life at a different perspective.They will  devise solutions to save their nation  and their future.

Same situation  in the Philippines,the young of today, have delved  interests in this new kind of electronics and information technology revolution.They are starting to learn how the world really should   work. A situation that needs  to be taken advantage. For in their hands lyes the oppurtunity to change the course of the future. Never should abuse and oppression be casted upon them, for history teaches what our predecessors have committed. We do not need the government to tell us what is good and what is not good for us, for we   the people  are  the government. Never again will  we be deprived of our rights to a better future. We don't need violent wars, what the world needs  right now  is a peaceful silent revolution.  

Facts about Hydrogen

But unfortunately you will need to put your brain in gear before you put your hands in motion, because you will be dealing with an element that is lighter than air, harder to compress and store it and with an explosion speed 10 times faster than gasoline.

The good news, is that this gas called "HHO" or "Brown Gas", dissipates very rapidly into the atmosphere and turns into water molecules, that is great for our environment!!! and a lot healthier for all human life.

So, please get yourself well informed about HHO and start working on your own project. Start from the "roots level,  changing the way you were so "dependent"          (slaves) on foreign oil, because if you wait for the government to do it, you will wait forever.

Remember that all the great inventions started, not in magnificent buildings but in small basements, garages and small work shops, by people like you and me and thanks to them we are able to enjoy the life style we are so used to it and take for granted.

Who knows, maybe you will be the person that will take our generation and our planet into the next frontier: The Hydrogen Energy revolution.

We wish the best of luck in your project and keep us informed about your project, if you send us pictures and testimonials, we will try to publish them here, so we all can learn from your experiences.  http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=360232803470

What is Hydrogen?

Hydrogen is the simplest, lightest element in the universe. It is made up of one proton and one electron. Because of its simplicity, it is believed by some that hydrogen is the root of all elements.

It’s Light! When hydrogen escapes into the atmosphere, it is so light that it scatters immediately upward in the air (it’s 14 times lighter than air) This means that a hydrogen spill won’t pool on the ground, pollute groundwater, or soak into clothing—it removes itself!

It’s Everywhere! Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, making up more that 90% of all matter. On Earth, it is the third most abundant element in the Earth’s surface, found in water and all organic matter.

What’s Its Nature? In its normal gaseous state, hydrogen is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and is nontoxic, which makes it different from every other common fuel we use.

What Happens When Hydrogen Burns? Hydrogen burns readily with oxygen, releasing considerable energy as heat and producing only water as exhaust. When hydrogen burns in air (which is mostly nitrogen), some oxides of nitrogen (NOx, contributors to smog and acid rain) can be formed, but much fewer pollutants are formed than when normal hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline and diesel are burned. Because no carbon is involved, using hydrogen fuel eliminates carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and does not contribute to global warming.

A Brief History of Hydrogen

1766 – Renowned English chemist and physicist Henry Cavendish is the first to recognize hydrogen gas as a distinct substance. He also described the composition of water as a combination of hydrogen and oxygen.

Early 1800’s to mid 1900’s – Town gas, a gaseous product manufactured from coal, supplies lighting and heating for America and Europe. Town gas is 50% hydrogen, with the rest comprised of mostly methane and carbon dioxide, with 3% to 6% carbon monoxide. Town gas is celebrated as a wonder, bringing light and heat to the civilized world. Then, large natural gas fields are discovered, and networks of natural gas pipelines displace town gas. (Town gas is still found in limited use today in Europe and Asia.)

1911 – Chemist Carl Bosch directs the development for ammonia and fertilizer to be manufactured from hydrogen and nitrogen gases. This innovation leads eventually to synthetic fertilizers, making it possible for agriculture to feed a rapidly increasing world population.

1937 – After several years of safe and elegant passenger travel by many airships, the zeppelin Hindenburg, landing at Lakehurst, New Jersey, is ignited by electrical discharge after its flight across the Atlantic from Germany. Within seconds, the airship burns and crashes to the ground, with a death toll of 35 of the 97 people on board and one on the ground. Although the Hindenburg was filled with seven million cubic feet of hydrogen for buoyancy, the fire spread because of the coating, which contained rocket propellant components. Thirty-four of the deaths were attributed to people jumping or falling from the airship, and two from burns from the flammable skin and on-board diesel. Even though the hydrogen burned safely above the passengers and didn’t cause a single death, hydrogen was stigmatized by association with the Hindenburg disaster for decades afterward.

1959 – Francis Bacon, engineer and descendent of the famous scientist,produced a 5-kW fuel cell system. Later that year, Harry Karl Ihrig demonstrated the first fuel cell-powered vehicle, a 20-horsepower tractor.
20th Century – Hydrogen is used extensively as a key component in the manufacture of ammonia, methanol, gasoline, and heating oil. It is also used to make fertilizers, glass, refined metals, vitamins, cosmetics, semiconductor circuits, soaps, lubricants, cleaners, margarine, peanut butter and rocket fuel.

1958 to Present – The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is formed, continuing work by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) and several universities and businesses on using hydrogen as a rocket fuel and electricity source via fuel cells. NASA becomes the worldwide largest user of liquid hydrogen and is renowned for its safe handling of hydrogen.
Late 20th Century/Dawn of 21st Century – Many industries worldwide begin producing hydrogen, hydrogen-powered vehicles, hydrogen fuel cells, and other hydrogen products. From Japan’s hydrogen delivery trucks to BMW’s liquid hydrogen passenger cars, to Ballard’s fuel cell transit buses in Chicago and Vancouver, BC, to Palm Desert’s Renewable Transportation Project, to Iceland’s commitment to be the first hydrogen economy by 2030, to the forward-thinking work of many hydrogen organizations worldwide, to Hydrogen Now!’s public education work, the dynamic progress in Germany, Europe, Japan, Canada, the US, Australia, Iceland, and several other countries launch hydrogen onto the main stage of the world’s energy scene.

The Nature of Hydrogen:

Hydrogen is less flammable than gasoline. The self-ignition temperature of hydrogen is 550 degrees Celsius. Gasoline varies from 228-501 degrees Celsius, depending on the grade. When the Hindenburg burned, it took some time before the hydrogen bags were ignited.

Hydrogen disperses quickly. Being the lightest element (fourteen times lighter than air), hydrogen rises and spreads out quickly in the atmosphere. So when a leak occurs, the hydrogen gas quickly becomes so sparse that it cannot burn. Even when ignited, hydrogen burns upward, and is quickly consumed, as shown in the Hindenburg picture. By contrast, materials such as gasoline and diesel vapors are heavier than air, and will not disperse, remaining a flammable threat for much longer.
Hydrogen is a non-toxic, naturally-occurring element in the atmosphere. By comparison, all petroleum fuels are poisonous to humans.

Hydrogen combustion produces only water. When pure hydrogen is burned in pure oxygen, only pure water is produced. Granted, that’s an ideal scenario, which doesn’t occur outside of laboratories and the space shuttle. In any case, when a hydrogen engine burns, it actually cleans the ambient air, by completing combustion of the unburned hydrocarbons that surround us. Compared with the toxic compounds (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and hydrogen sulfide) produced by petroleum fuels, the products of hydrogen burning are much safer.

Hydrogen can be stored safely. Tanks currently in use for storage of compressed hydrogen (similar to compressed natural gas tanks) have survived intact through testing by various means, including being shot with six rounds from a .357 magnum, detonating a stick of dynamite next to them, and subjecting them to fire at 1500 degrees F. Clearly, a typical gasoline tank wouldn’t survive a single one of these tests.

What Have We Learned? 
No fuel we currently use or have yet to develop will be totally without hazards, through all the processes of production, transportation, and consumption, just as no kitchen knife can be used without risk to the chef. Hydrogen has long been considered close to ideal as a fuel due to its abundance, non-toxic characteristics, and international availability. We must recognize that each of us has learned to use knives safely, and do so daily. As long as we use wisdom in our methods of production, storage, and use of hydrogen, we’ll enjoy the same safety we have had with petroleum fuels, with the additional benefit of fewer health hazards when leaks do occur.

The Hydrogen Economy

Mankind’s energy needs have evolved for centuries and are continuing to evolve today. From wood and animal fat, to coal, to petroleum, to propane, to natural gas, we have used a succession of fuels to heat us, manufacture our goods, light our lamps, and move about our planet. Hydrogen is the latest in the succession of energy providers, with many social, economic, and environmental benefits to its credit.

The technology is now available to begin converting from a petroleum-based economy to a hydrogen-based economy. 

All three energy sectors (transportation, industry, and heating and cooling buildings) stand to benefit. Of these, the transportation sector will likely have the most profound immediate effect.

Transportation
Research is advancing on fuel cells and many other hydrogen technologies; so we need to begin building the supply and distribution systems to energize these products.

We will not immediately dispose of the 800 million vehicles that are presently in the World. Millions of new internal combustion engine vehicles will be produced before the transition to manufacturing totally clean vehicles can be completed. These new and older cars will be on our roads for at least the next 30 years. If they are powered with hydrogen, billions of tons of greenhouse gases and pollutants will not be thrust into the air.

Converting internal combustion engines in automobiles is possible today. See our Automobile page for more information.

Sources of Hydrogen
Currently, natural gas (methane) is the primary source for producing hydrogen, using a method called "Steam Methane Reformation" (SMR). However, as the cost of natural gas rises, and the cost of electricity from wind and other renewable energy sources diminishes, more and more of our hydrogen will come from clean renewable energy.

Research is striving to improve renewable methods of generating hydrogen (from livestock waste, landfill biomass, waste-water sludge, chemical reactions and electricity from solar, wind and water power). As fossil fuel companies become basic energy companies, harvesting hydrogen from these sources can make it a completely renewable resource.

A Series of Transitions
Converting to the hydrogen economy is a series of transitions: first, a transition when both conventional fuels and hydrogen will be available, and used, for example, in the same internal combustion engine, and second, when hydrogen alone will be used. The complete transition will stretch at least a decade. It could even take 20 years or more before we produce hydrogen from completely renewable resources. The transition can be done in a very short period of time if all people of the world put their collective efforts into it and demand that it be done.

The world’s energy systems continue to evolve, and no single source of energy will meet all mankind’s needs forever.

Let’s start this important next step together! Now!

Is burning hydrogen like the hydrogen bomb?

No. Burning hydrogen, just like burning gasoline, natural gas, or a candle,is a chemical reaction, which means that only the electrons get shifted around and new compounds are made, like water, but the basic atoms are the same. In a nuclear reaction, the actual nucleus of the atom (the protons and neutrons) is changed.

How was hydrogen named?

Hydrogen was named by Antoine Lavoisier in 1783. A Frenchman, he called it hydrogène, naming it after the Greek words hydor and gennan (or geinomai) roughly translated as "water generating" or "water forming".

 Conclusion

Basing our findings and with the facts given, hydrogen is the solution to our current global economic and environmental crisis.  Harnessing it's power with the use of modern high technology gadgets and know how contributed by those who use it and  had in in depth research and intensive experiments on this element, humanity is headed towards change and should start adopting ways of preserving fossil fuels for mankind's future generation as well as save the earth from further destruction brought about by  green house gases.  Support drives and innovation pertaining to the proliferation of Hydrogen commercial use. 

The Real Thing

Harnessing the power of water during the industrial revolution was well achieved through the use of hydro power.  Dams that  helped power homes and industries. With the industrial revolution coming to its peak and  giving way for the digital revolution, energy required to power our homes should also come into a transition. Hydro power should remain, maintained and well taken care of. However, power plants run by fossil fuels such as coal and bunker fuel should be eradicated and extincted. They are one of the main causes of pollution that continue to plague humanity and the environment.

Limit the use of fossil fuels.  This resource continues to be abused by capitalists who tend to go after the profits, disregarding the ill effects they contribute to the environment.There are many ill effects of depending only on  fossil fuels for energy consumption. Apart from  rising prices and its continuous depleting supply,  fossil fuels  also contributes to  environmental pollution. When  fossil fuels are used as fuel, it gives rise to harmful gases that lead to land and air pollution. Pollution is just a  short term effect of these fossil fuel burning. The long term  effect of  fossil fuels is a phenomenon called green house effect. What is this greenhouse effect? The greenhouse effect is created by the gases emitted by fossil fuels. These toxic  gases form a blanket on the earth’s atmosphere, along with clouds, water vapor and carbon dioxide. When sunlight heats the earth,  heat is trapped in the atmosphere due to this blanket. This is similar to the heat  trapped in a greenhouse at a nursery. As the concentration of these gases increase, global warming takes place. Greenhouse effect can lead to health hazards and loss of life. Melting of the polar ice caps resulting in flooding of low lying areas.The greenhouse effect can be curbed by reduced usage of fossil fuels for energy. Fossil energy can be compensated with clean or green energy available from the natural elements of earth. And Hydrogen is one  element.

We had been working on the H.O.G. (Hydrogen Oxygen Generator) for more than 5 years.  We have stumbled upon scores of theories that needed to be proven as facts. We had reasons to quit, but more reasons to go on.  It is a fact that Hydrogen is one of  the most abundant earth element and the most abundant element in the universe, making  up about 3/4 of all matter.

In relation to Hydrogen, water (H2O) is the most abundant compound on earth. A logical thinker would definitely come into a conclusion that there is energy or power in water considering the elements that composes water are  2 parts Hydrogen and 1 part Oxygen. An oil mongrel on the other hand will definitely disregard water as a source of energy, saying it needs more effort to harness the power of H2O,costing more than buying his fossilized fuel. I disagree with his claim.

We had scores of test proving that the amount of energy input brings out more energy output through harnessing the power of water. Brute force electrolysis is just the premise on our continues study on harnessing the power of water to run our cars.  Our travels to different parts of the Philippines  using the HOG system has gained us more kilometers, saving  us money and maintaining our vehicles performance in tip top condition. We have gained an average of 35% savings on our diesel consumption. Believe it or not, but its true.  The H.O.G. has proven up to its purpose of adding more kilometers to a liter of diesel. Installed on a 2.4 liter 2003 Toyota Revo, the usual 8 kms. to a liter increased to 12.76 kms. to a liter of diesel. A 4.76 increase in kms/liter. It is not magic, and we have no time to bullshit around. We have proof of our claims, and this we have to share with people. We encourage people to see our system, but we discourage unbelievers. The Philippines need this kind of energy source, clean, efficient and affordable. If nobody dare not share such a God given resource, then we will continue to be the Philippines as we are now,poor and developing.

Justice Well Served

I was elated when I read in a local Baguio newspaper that a good friend of mine was proven not guilty of a crime he was accused of.  Knowing him for a long time made me wonder how could he be accused of such a crime.  He's got a simple living life, a good property to spend his life along with his wife; kids all grown up and  professionals. We may not be the best of  friends, but knowing him from the beginning , made me feel at home whenever I go visit him along with other friends at his simple abode along the sides of Mt. Santo Tomas.  He has lived all his life in this beautiful city of pines along with a beautiful  family, enjoying it's magnificence, falling  in love with the magic Baguio City brings. 

But on the 28th of February, 2010 he was accused of a crime, so ironic of his personality. He was arrested by armed  policemen in civilian clothes on  a  COMELEC gun ban without a Warrant-of-Arrest.  He was deprived of his constitutional rights, not even read  the Miranda Rule which is a must when arresting or inviting a suspect.  He was accused of robbery with coercion  due to a stupid  heresy. The incident was listed in the police blotter 3 times with corrections and opaqued marks. Wonder how police  intelligence worked on this case, or are they  not that intelligent at all? .He was humiliated, deprived of his rights, and was locked up. His children, all grown up, beautiful and intellectual, came to justify their father's innocence. He gained freedom from the cold bars upon postig bail. It took him 8 months of agonizing travels from his abode to the Justice Hall to attend hearings, of which were all useless for he was innocent in the first place. A waste of money, effort and a lot of deprived quality time for his family and business. In every pain as they say, comes a gain.  And being acquitted is the best gain an accused can have.  The case also uncovered a lot of conspiracies, not worth discussing as of this moment.

My friend's ordeal is not new, it has happened before and still is happenng. But with the new leadership of PNoy promising us;the citizenry; of a lesser evil of everything, its pay back time for those who had and are still suffering of  injustice. It is a clear sign for the people to be awaken and not fear those who rule, for they should be servants as  we are their  masters.And may those who continue to commit evil in government, listen upon their higher selves for they may suffer their karma, graver than what they have done unto their fellowmen.

Crocs in offices, hoodlooms in robes, kotong cops and the rest of the pests in government, their days are numbered.  People are awakening for they are hungry for change.

PRESERVE FOSSIL FUEL.... USE WATER...

At the current rate of consumption, there is about 250 to 350 years of fossil fuels left on Earth. Most of this is coal. There is only about 25 to 40 years of oil left on Earth. It is difficult to make an accurate prediction with oil because the rate of consumption can change drastically as developing nations grow.

The amount of oil left in the world is predicted to be around 1.2 trillion barrels of oil. More oil is likely to be discovered, but declines in oil supplies are currently outpacing newfound oil supplies according to National Geographic; this means that supplies are dropping. In 2008 production from the world’s mature oil fields was declining at a rate of 6.7% a year. This is likely to get worse over time. 1.2 trillion barrels of oil may sound like a huge amount, which it is, but the problem is that the human race consumes a huge amount at the same time, with oil stocks declining and levels that are outpacing demand. Many observers believe the day of peak oil production has passed, and other optimists estimate it will only be a matter of years before we pass peak production. 1.2 trillion barrels means that oil will run out in 44 years based on current usage figures. Although is it predicted that the time when oil will run out will come sooner due to the increasing usage and demand in the developing economies of the world, especially in China and India, where usage has increased dramatically in the past decade. Some estimates estimate that oil will run out in as little as 25 years, others say there is enough oil left in the world to last for 40 years. There is no definite date, but it is imminent.

As well as the threat on the impact of our daily lives like not being able to run a car as we did or the possibility of having to change our levels of usage of electrical products, there is a wider political factor here; the dwindling stocks of fossil fuels are likely to create conflicts in the future between nations seeking security of their fossil fuel reserves. 

Basing on the above facts, fossil fuel needs to be preserved.  Aside   from being a major contributory factor in increasing carbon emissions to the environment (which speeds up global warming) fossil fuel is an essential substance that is needed by generations to come.  Our present generation has depleted much of the current fossil fuel reserves due to industry innovations and high demand of fossil fuel use due to industrialization.  

So what effect will it be if humanity starts using water and other alternative energy sources in order to preserve fossil fuels from complete depletion?  Majority of governments around the world are against the use and proliferation of alternative sources of energy and fuel such as water. Why? It is mainly due to some people who have invested too much on a resource that is currently on the way towards depletion and extinction.  Only a few e people who hold sensitive positions in global economies and governments benefit from this trade, sacrificing those whom they govern and supposedly serve just to attain personal gratification and monopoly.  Greed for money and power, these are the reasons why they go against the use of such alternative sources of energy.  

Water is energy, water is power and water is the solution for a cleaner environment.  It will save the remaining reserves of fossil fuels needed by the succeeding generations to come. It will definitely free countries who  depend much on the use of fossil fuels to run their economy. So why hinder the use of a technology that will lift up a country from poverty?  Elevating it into an economy that will uplift a nation towards progress, ridding it of dependence to fossil fuels that they dim not possess. 

PRESERVE FOSSIL FUELS, USE IT LESS....USE ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF ENERGY..... MAKE USE OF THE MOST ABUNDANT RESOURCE IN THE WORLD,.....USE WATER TO RUN THE ECONOMY....

The Wonder of Water

Water will always be an essential element for the earth to survive. Without it, life won't be possible.  Water volume within the earth's boundaries remains unchanged ever since. It is, the most abundant substance on the face of the earth. Water is used in a lot of ways, making it as an essential ingredient in maintaning life on earth . Water is a source of power and energy.

Chemistry breakdowns water into two elements, 2 parts Hydrogen and 1 part Oxygen. During our   high school and college Chemistry experiments regarding electrolysis (separating Hydrogen from Oxygen using electricity remember?), we had doubts on wether the bubbles we created were really hydrogen . We doubted the possibility of having water as fuel for it costs more to produce Hydrogen  than the actual Hydrogen output it will  produce. These kind of  mindset had been thought of during those  times when computers were a rarity, when people communicated through land lines and through the  censoring of the media. Today, as we face the challenges of this new millennium, innovation in communication and information dissemination has escalated into such an unbelievable stage making the world smaller and much easier for people to communicate, anywhere around the world.

People had been working ever since on the possibility of converting water into gas.  The Internet is one proof to attest to this fact.. A long list of personalities  have invested money, time and effort just to prove their claim that water is fuel. Compiled findings and observations that had remained obscure for the past decades out of fear of being eaten alive by oil mongrels, are now being posted in the Internet, some even selling it at a price.

Oil producing companies will do whatever it has in its power to deter this kinds of alternative energy.  It's quite too obvious that having an alternative source of energy would mean less use of fossil fuel, resulting to lowered prices of oil products leading to loss of billions of dollars in oil exploration and proliferation. They will end up selling their fuel at a price dictated upon by its consumers. Monopoly on fossil  fuel  will be minimized, global  economy will improve making poor and developing countries compete head on with their counterpart nations. Let us always remember that its the fuel that makes the economy run. And with water as an alternative source of fuel, there will be less carbon  and green house gases being emitted to the  atmosphere, saving the earth from the wraths of global warming.

Communicating with fellow scientists and HHO (Hydrogen,Hydrogen, Oxygen) enthusiasts, a local group of Filipino and American HHO enthusiasts have come up with a version of a fuel cell that separates H2O (water) into HH0 gas. We invite people who have the same interests in doing this science.  Join our HHO Philippine group in Face Book, http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1742005232&v=wall&story_fbid=134930766518743#!/group.php?gid=360232803470&ref=ts
 join in discussions and learn how  to build your own HHO fuel cell (we call it the H.O.G. -Hydrogen-Oxygen-Generator), it works and its amazing. This innovation is not rocket science, it only needs logical thinking and skeptics are discouraged to join, we need believers for change.

CROSSROADS

The political battle arena is starting to heat up. Countdown towards the nation's final judgement nears. Expect mud slinging and character defamations among the players involved in this battle for excelllency and honor.  It's a tight race, where even those who can't vote due to citizenship debate among themselves who deserves to lead the country . Family members argue among themselves who will be the next leaders of a nation that needs to recover from an imbalanced economy and moral degeneration.

It's a first in Philippine history where the elections has an all-star cast of characters, all claiming that they are best fit to sit as leaders, declaring themselves as heroes while the adversary is the villain.

"Chopsuey" line ups stir within the minds of the mindful voter, not risking to waste he's vote. The winners have to be chosen from different sources, and that is democracy in motion.

Baguio City is not an exemption, campaigning here has intensified. People are starting to show their colors, supporting those whom they believe will rear Baguio towards true change. Baguio is deteriorating, though it continues to urbanize.  It maintains its title as the Summer Capital of the archipelago but it is threatened,  if the next set of officials fail  to spear-head a strong and reliable local government. True change is what Baguio need right now.

Baguio needs people with integrity, dedication,honor,experience, mission and vision of transforming Baguio back to its usual state of  grandness.

We are on a crossroad, and we need to choose only one path. We do not see what is in the future, but we know what is right for us and for the majority today. We have that right to make change.
