Thank you JC for the feature.  We're hoping that they would at least properly acknowledge and credit my work and my blog.  The City Mayor has nothing to do with it, so I'm hoping for her full support on this.

that's the risk of posting in forums.

una mo atang dapat lusubin yung webmasters nyan. then yung mayor then congressman then president

the webmaster already posted an apology here but deleted it after a few hours... i have spoken to him and im sure he knows where he should be... MIS is under counc. favis and  also directly under the mayor's office... youve done the right thing..

laging may loophole sa batas lalo na pag gobyerno binangga mo. mag-uumpisa na magsalita yan ng mga bureaucratic bullshitts!

ie: road widening— di ka pwedeng humindi pag gustu nilang wasakin ang driveway mo.

sana lang respect naman sa dignidad ng tao. wag namang abusuhin pwesto nyo. ilagay nyo ang sarili nyo sa pwesto ng mga biktima bago maglagay ng photo.

otherwise sana man lang may credit man lang sa writeup as consolation na lang.
