Dan Brown Calls Manila “Gates of Hell” / Girl’s suicide indicts Philippine anti-poverty programme

Isabelo, Marianneth’s father, said that the night before she hanged herself, his daughter asked him for 100 pesos (2.32 dollars) for a school project.

The Amper family is just one of millions of impoverished households in the Philippines still waiting to feel the benefits of an appreciating peso against the US dollar, the fastest economic growth in 20 years and increasing foreign investments.

I would blame the poverty and misery in the Philippines on the oligarch-traitors who in 1946 insisted the Philippines is ready for independence and self-rule. They were and they are still selfish. The rest of the world including Christians in America do not care what’s happening to the Philippines. Now this:

“Manila—the most densely populated city on earth—Sienna could only gape in horror. She had never seen poverty on this scale. How can one person possibly make a difference?

For every one person Sienna fed, there were hundreds more who gazed at her with desolate eyes. Manila had six-hour traffic jams, suffocating pollution, and a horrifying sex trade, whose workers consisted primarily of young children, many of whom had been sold to pimps by parents who took solace in knowing that at least their children would be fed.

Meet Marianneth Amper who at 12 yrs. old committed suicide on Nov. 2, 2007. My question: Do you think Asian, European pedophiles coming to the Philippines would find her attractive? How much do you think she’ll be sold for in the “horrifying sex trade” in Manila.  It’s a good thing Dan Brown’s novel Inferno set in Manila is just fiction, whew!

HAPPY F^&*+ING MEMORIAL DAY!!!

Here’s an excerpt from an old WAIS post before Marianneth killed herself.

“I am not totally against the Kyoto Protocol. TOTALITARIANISM, EXTREMISM and INDIFFERENCE will be the three roots of man’s problems in the 21st century. We just have to be relatively on the same page. But the Philippines is not yet ready for self-rule. It is difficult to argue that after 60 years of failing to develop, the Philippines as a whole should be allowed to maintain the status quo.”

Marianeth Amper at 12 Suicide victim 11-02-07

Meet Marianneth Amper, the “Anne Frank” of the Philippines, a 12-yr-old girl who has lost hope & committed suicide on Nov. 02, 2007.

Days after Mariannet’s suicide, police investigators recovered under her pillow a diary and a letter addressed to a public service television programme asking for a new pair of shoes and school bag, and steady jobs for her mother and father.

In the last two entries in her diary about two weeks before she took her life, Mariannet lamented that she and her brother had been absent from school and they could not go to church because they had no money for fare and their father was suffering from a fever.

‘It seemed as if we were absent from school for a month now,’ she wrote in her diary. ‘We don’t count our absences anymore. I hardly noticed that Christmas is fast approaching.’

Isabelo, Marianneth’s father, said that the night before she hanged herself, his daughter asked him for 100 pesos (2.32 dollars) for a school project.The Amper family is just one of millions of impoverished households in the Philippines still waiting to feel the benefits of an appreciating peso against the US dollar, the fastest economic growth in 20 years and increasing foreign investments.

According to United Nations data, more than 50 per cent of the Philippines’ 88 million people live on less than 2 dollars a day. A nationwide survey conducted by a local polling firm in September also showed that 21.5 per cent of Filipino families suffer involuntary hunger, up from from 19 per cent in November 2006.

SHADES OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION

Malacañang PALACE said the girl’s suicide was an isolated incident. “A child committing suicide because of hunger and poverty may be an isolated case, but Filipino families experiencing extreme hunger and poverty are definitely prevalent.”

We have already seen and heard news of adults committing suicide in desperation borne out of poverty by jumping from billboards or hanging themselves,” Alphonse Rivera, head of the child rights organization, Salinlahi Alliance for Children’s Concerns, said in a statement sent to the Mindanao Examiner.
