His death, according to Rufino, came as a surprise since Deramas fully recovered from the medical procedure.<br /><br />The respected director’s death has shocked the whole nation yet several netizens pointed out that his social media posts are premonitions of his death.<br /><br />A day before his passing, the “Beauty and the Bestie” director wrote a lengthy post on his Facebook account. In the said post, he recounted the death of his mother in 2009 and expressed his gratitude to Rufino, who was celebrating her birthday at that time. Netizens speculated that it was Deramas’s way of saying goodbye to his friend.<br /><br /><center><div id="fb-root"></div><script>(function(d, s, id) {  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;  js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3";  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script><div class="fb-post" data-href="https://web.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=200119993681972&id=100010519180580" data-width="500"><div class="fb-xfbml-parse-ignore"><blockquote cite="https://web.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=200119993681972&id=100010519180580">2009 ng Mawala ang Nanay ko.

Partylist denies alleged P70-million ‘unholy alliance’ vs. Marcos

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">MANILA, Philippines - A multi-sectoral partylist coalition issued a statement Tuesday denying all accusations on alleged “unholy alliance” with vice presidential candidate Chiz Escudero in exchange for seventy million pesos to derail the candidacy of his rival Senator Bongbong Marcos for the 2016 national elections.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK3Vikgd4ZqbxAEagG5RTovjujTjjS_EKY-Wpa6sJhdEBqd2J0_x01gThQYtMPlKTnV24dxKI29tp055WL-YroXans5Fpb7QLmVkRcZD_NME3sPKYhrdTVH7-Y4RBuY0CFxqX6V3jsT7lw/s1600/chiz-bongbong-sanlakas.jpg" imageanchor="1" rel="nofollow" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Sanlakas on Chiz and Bongbong" border="0" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK3Vikgd4ZqbxAEagG5RTovjujTjjS_EKY-Wpa6sJhdEBqd2J0_x01gThQYtMPlKTnV24dxKI29tp055WL-YroXans5Fpb7QLmVkRcZD_NME3sPKYhrdTVH7-Y4RBuY0CFxqX6V3jsT7lw/s640/chiz-bongbong-sanlakas.jpg" title="Sanlakas on Chiz and Bongbong" width="560" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">On alleged “unholy alliance” with Escudero, partylist denies alleged pay-off, says article is pure baloney.</td></tr></tbody></table>“Sanlakas does not need any prodding, much less need to get paid, for us to take a clear and unequivocal stand against the electoral bid of another Marcos in office,” said Manjette Lopez, president of Sanlakas.<br /><br />Lopez, herself a victim of martial law, twice arrested and detained explained. “We join hands with the on-going Never Again Campaign and the Campaign Against the Return of the Marcoses to Malacanang (CARMMA) in calling for the rejection of Bongbong Marcos’ candidacy in the coming elections.  We demand justice not only for human rights violations, but also the economic injustice inflicted by the plunder of billions of dollars by the Marcos family and cronies.”<br /><br />On February 28, <a href="http://www.manilatimes.net/p70-million-unholy-alliance-vs-marcos/247479/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Manila Times</a> published a story claiming that a reliable source nicknamed as “Heart,” said Escudero’s decision to approve release of the P70 million to the two leftist groups who are enemies of traditional politicians. It was described as a “desperate move” by those who knew about the agreement directly or indirectly.<br /><br />“The allegations in the article of a certain Nelson Badilla are absolutely fabricated.  Sanlakas has no relation with a certain Charlie Avila, the alleged conduit to Senator Escudero. This is pure baloney. We do not need a conduit for we have worked directly with Sen. Escudero in the past on such issues as the fight against contractualization, increase in wages, tax reform vs VAT, and the like.”  <br /><br />“The article is malicious and smacks of red-baiting, very reminiscent of Martial Law tactics when seeking to malign its enemies.” Lopez added. She asserted that the article was intended to hurt Escudero more, alleging an “unholy alliance” with the left, paying in a desperate attempt to undermine BongBong Marcos’ electoral bid.<br /><br />“But the flux of anti-Martial Law and anti-Marcos sentiments in quad media was overwhelming and cannot possibly be seen as contrived, even if the RAs (Makabayan) and RJs (Sanlakas) conspired to launch a campaign against Bongbong Marcos.” Lopez declared. “No amount of fictitious allegations by Marcos’ paid hacks can hide this.”<br /><br />Sanlakas and its member organization announced last week that it forged an alliance with Escudero on the basis of advancing demands which includes (1) regular employment; (2) social services such as education, public housing, universal health care, safe and efficient mass transportation; (3) land use and government support to farmers; (4) climate justice and protection to the environment; (5) pro-people budgeting and progressive taxation; (6) eradication of corruption and, (7) people’s sovereignty against foreign and corporate powers.<br /><br />“But then again, there is still a speck of truth in the article though, and that is that an Escudero victory in the 2016 polls will stop on its tracks Bongbong’s bid to get back in Malacanang.”, Lopez concluded."</div>

We are not yet where we should be, but I think slowly, we are gaining momentum which is good.  I think with Ceres next week we probably have to go higher (take it a notch higher).  But when we play against each other, I think you’ll find that the teams lift themselves because there’ll be a lot of Azkals players, playing against each other, they know each other very well and nobody wants to lose that game.”<br /><br />“GLOBAL FC fans are also encouraged to root for their team this Thursday, March 3.  There is nothing like a stadium full of screaming fans”, Coach Manson adds.<br /><br />GLOBAL FC vs. Ceres FC takes place on March 3, Thursday, 8:30 p.m. at the Rizal Memorial Stadium.</div>
