This past weekend, the 30th anniversary of the cityhood of Muntinlupa was celebrated with special activities. On the afternoon of March 1, Mayor Ruffy Biazon delivered his State of the City Address declaring Muntinlupa as a smart, sustainable and strong city, according to the Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…
Mayor Ruffy Biazon said Muntinlupa has become a smart, sustainable and strong city with the use of technology and innovation, and solutions that maximize resources.
“Today we celebrate the 30th year since our home town became a city. Today we can say that Muntinlupa has transformed into a city that is Smart, Sustainable, and Strong,” said Biazon in his State of the City Address during the 30th Muntinlupa cityhood anniversary celebration on March 1.
He said, “Smart because we are utilizing technology and innovation to make the government more efficient in the use of resources, faster in the delivery of services, more streamlined in its processes and make decisions based on data gathered through its systems.”
The mayor said Muntinlupa is “sustainable because we adopt solutions that help us maximize our use of resources but still remain mindful of the needs of future generations. Strong because we remain resilient in the face of calamities, crisis, and challenges that put to the test our determination to survive and succeed.”
Muntinlupa became a highly-urbanized city with the signing of Republic Act 7926 on March 1, 1995.
In his speech, he mentioned what the city government has done since he assumed office in 2022 and the plans that will be implemented under his 7K Agenda.
“While we have come a long way from what was described as a sleepy town to a bustling, modern, highly urbanized city that it is now, the character of its people remains rooted in the traditional values of caring for the community, goodwill towards each other, and earning your keep through hard work,” he said.
He added, “Coming at the heels of the successes of those who laid the city’s foundation, we ask ourselves: what else can we do to achieve greater accomplishments? We ask this not to just simply outdo those we followed, but more to push ourselves to break new ground, find new paths and create through innovation.”
Kaunlaran (Development) – Under his “Kaunlaran” agenda, the mayor envisions Muntinlupa to be a “Model Smart Urban Village” of the region.
“We crafted our vision to visualize a future that we want for our people. But as I quote during my previous addresses – ‘The best way to predict the future is to create it,’” he said.
This year, he said, the city government is updating the Comprehensive Land and Water Use Plan and Zoning Ordinance, which “will provide a framework for the City’s physical development, and the smart and efficient allocation of land and water resources for various uses.”
The city government will implement key e-governance projects, including the Citizens’ Database and Muntizen ID, “a city-wide database and unified ID Card System to record and monitor the city’s population and migration information, as well as the provision and availment of City Government’s social, educational and medical benefits to our citizens.”
The city will also have the Centralized Geographic Information System (CGIS), “a software to map and digitalize geographic data of the City.”
Improving the MUNCONNECT, Muntinlupa’s public wi-fi system located in schools, business establishments and government facilities, is also being planned.
Biazon said the city government’s efforts were recognized through various awards including the Seal of Good Local Governance for the third consecutive year and ranking fourth among all highly-urbanized cities in the country in the Cities and Municipalities Competitiveness Index.
He thanked the business sector as the city government surpassed its business tax collection target in 2024, reaching P2.4 billion.
“Through our programs on business permit registrations complimented by ‘Ease of Doing Business’ strategies, we made sure that Muntinlupa is a City that remains Business-Friendly and attractive for new and thriving investment opportunities,” he said.
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, are you delighted with what the City Government achieved and how it rendered public service? Do you feel confident that Muntinlupa will keep on progressing and become even more competitive with other cities of the nation over the next ten to fifteen years?

Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1980s culture enthusiasts and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the mid-1980s to explore a part of the DC Comics shared universe through a tale of the iconic Superman.
Shortly after the end of the original multiverse of DC Comics, the publisher organized a massive reboot of its superhero franchises and universe. To reboot and modernize the iconic Superman, DC hired John Byrne and backed him up with a solid creative team. The result was the 6-part comic book mini-series The Man of Steel. Previously, I reviewed The Man of Steel #1 and #2 which collectively established Superman and Lois Lane as the iconic superhero and the definitive supporting character of the post-Crisis age respectively. Of course, the super villain opposite the post-Crisis Superman had to be established.
With those details laid down, here is a look back at The Man of Steel #4, published in 1986 by DC Comics with a story written and illustrated by John Byrne.
The cover.
Early story
The story begins when a daringly dressed Lois Lane arrives at the apartment of Clark Kent who has not even fully prepared himself for their trip to an extravagant gathering. It turns out, Lois’ ride picked her up earlier than expected which explains her early arrival.
After entering Clark’s apartment, she slowly begins to discover what he looked like in school and who his parents are. By this time, it has been almost eighteen months since Clark beat her to the first-ever Superman news story at the Daily Planet.
Afterwards, Lois and Clark took a surprising helicopter ride going to the luxurious ship of the powerful tycoon Lex Luthor…
Quality
Superman intervenes to protect Lois Lane from one of the terrorists.
To make things clear, this issue is all about John Byrne presenting a new version of Superman’s definitive rival Lex Luthor with the 1980s in mind. Instead of a mad scientist, the post-Crisis Luthor is a billionaire whose corporation (Lexcorp) has an interest in virtually every business in Metropolis and his immense wealth makes him a very powerful figure. This new version of Luthor was clearly done to be more grounded with reality, specifically with regards to the rise of tycoons in America in the 1980s. In short, Luthor was the ruthless and powerful businessman before Michael Douglas even got to play Gordon Gekko in 1987’s Wall Street.
While the effort of making a really new version of Superman’s arch-rival is clear, Luthor here does not appear too menacing at first. The story and impact of Luthor’s evil really started to materialize as soon as the South American terrorists appeared, but not in a way that you might expect. As mentioned above, Luthor here is more grounded with reality and that means you won’t see him oppose Superman with science and technology. Instead, Luthor simply has wealth, the power and resources to go against the Man of Steel. The tycoon also knows that the American-born Kryptonian would not dare attack him as laws already exist.
Having read lots of Superman’s encounters with Luthor in the pre-Crisis era – particularly the 1970s up to the mid-1980s – it is clear to me that their first post-Crisis encounter turned out underwhelming and never dynamic. In fairness, I really enjoyed reading the 2nd encounter between Superman and Luthor as the words of the latter were filled with anger and tension. It should be noted that Byrne’s visual approach on showing the city and the people as Luthor’s dialogue went on was a great touch.
When it comes to the storytelling, it is quite simple which is not surprising because it was crafted to make way for post-Crisis Luthor to be introduced and dramatized. As for the character development, there is indeed progress with regards to the chemistry between Clark Kent and Lois Lane who are portrayed as friends living with a journalistic competition between them. It was also in this comic book where you will see Superman follow the law and the command of Metropolis’ highest official.
Speaking of law, you will notice what kind of impact Luthor has on others when he really does things his own way. This is something you should read in this comic book.
Conclusion
This is John Byrne’s version of Lex Luthor in the form of a powerful tycoon. A complete departure from the mad scientist Luthor of the pre-Crisis era of DC Comics.
While the first-ever conflict between Superman and Luthor in the post-Crisis age was indeed underwhelming, it was John Byrne’s in-depth writing and portrayal of events that made The Man of Steel #4 (1986) a worthy read. Don’t expect to see a lot of action here nor anything spectacular with Superman. Clearly, the tycoon Lex Luthor is the feature character of this tale and the start of his hatred towards Superman is really worth reading. In retrospect, Luthor’s ruthlessness and evil got stronger and clearer after the end of this comic book (for reference, click here).
Overall, The Man of Steel #4 (1986) is recommended.

When compared to the National and Local Elections of 2022, the voting population of the Philippines for this year is significantly higher with almost 76 million and voters aged 18 to 44-years-old combined for a majority, according to a GMA Network news report. It should be noted that the number of registered voters for 2025 is short of 70 million.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…
Filipinos from the ages of 18 to 44 make up the majority of voters for Eleksyon 2025, data compiled by GMA Integrated News Research showed.
According to a report on 24 Oras Weekend, the Philippines’ voting population—or those who are of age to vote—increased by a little over 10 million to 75,940,535 for the 2025 national and local midterm elections, from 65,745,512 in 2022.
Of the 2025 total, Comelec data as of Jan. 23, 2025 shows that 69,673,655 are registered voters.
And of this number, the breakdown by generation is as follows, according to GMA Integrated News Research:
* 25.94 million are Millennials, born in the period from 1981 to 1996, making up 34.15% of the voting-age population
* 21.87 million are Gen Z, born in the period from 1997 to 2007, making up 28.79% of the voting-age population
* 17.64 million are Gen X, born in the period from 1965 to 1980, making up 23.22% of the voting-age population
* 10.50 million are from the Baby Boom and Silent Generations, born in the 1946–1964 and 1928–1945 periods respectively, making up 13.83% of the voting-age population
This means Millennials and Gen Z voters make up about 63% of the voting-age population and 68% of the registered voters for Eleksyon 2025.
In 2022, millennials were still the biggest group of voters, followed by Gen X-ers at 16.78 million. Gen Z-ers saw the biggest increase in voters, from 13.11 million in 2022 to 21.87 million three years later.
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do Millennials and Gen Z voters of your local community form a majority of the local voting population? Are the registered voters of your local community willing to vote in this May’s national and local elections?
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) revealed online recently that the overall collection of its coin deposit machines (CoDMs) has exceeded P1.2 billion. The latest statistics are accurate of as January 15, 2025.
Based on the latest statistics, a total of P1,235,393,307.96 (14.07%% higher than the previous count of P1,082,972,600.36) in coins got deposited into BSP machines on 284,974 transactions from customers. In terms of physical quantity, 310,679,523coins were deposited.
Doing the math on the latest statistics, customers averaged P4,335.1088 per transaction at the machines (compared to the November 15, 2024 average of P4,231.9156 per transaction). As for the grand total Peso amount divided by the number of coins deposited, the average is P3.9764 per coin deposited (previous average was P3.8654 per coin deposited)
When it comes to the number of coins involved with each transaction, 310,679,523 coins divided by 284,974 transactions resulted in an average of 1,090.2030 coins per transaction (a slight drop compared to the previous average was 1,094.8293 coins per transaction).
Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think the BSP coin deposit project deposits could hit P2 billion by the end of this year? When was the last time you deposited at least 50 coins into the nearest CoDM of the BSP? Do you think it is time for the BSP to add its coin machines in the Visayas and Mindanao regions?
Now that the global scandal of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has been exposed, there is a list of connected projects here in the Philippines (more than 30 projects according to a recent Philippine Star news report) and the disturbance is only growing. The administration of US President Donald Trump has been examining the spending and projects of USAID, and the Democrats have been outraged which is not surprising because a lot of USAID projects are based on their Leftist and woke agenda.
This past December, the Manila Bulletin reported a project involving USAID (specifically the United States Agency for International Development – Clean Cities, Blue Ocean or USAID-CCBO for short) and the City Government of Parañaque (through its City Environment and Natural Resources Office called CENRO for short) in the form of a mural painting emphasizing “environmental stewardship and youth empowerment through community-based initiatives.”
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the December 12, 2024 Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…
The city government of Parañaque, through its City Environment and Natural Resources (CENRO), together with the United States Agency for International Development – Clean Cities, Blue Ocean (USAID CCBO), conducted a mural painting event on Dec. 11 promoting environmental stewardship and youth empowerment through community-based initiatives.
Parañaque City Mayor Eric Olivarez said the event, with the theme “Raising Awareness on Solid Waste Management and Marine Litter Pollution,” was held at the City Material Recovery Facility in Barangay La Huerta and was participated by students from Parañaque National High School – Main
They were accompanied by their principal, Gerry Lumaban, and teacher Winnie Freda Cabero.
The students’ artistic talents were showcased during the activity under the guidance of AG Sanio, a renowned Filipino muralist, conservationist, photographer, landscape architect, and environmental advocate.
Within the context of the Manila Bulletin news report, it’s hard to see if there is anything wrong or questionable about the Parañaque City project involving USAID. It is also not yet clear how much American taxpayer’s money was spent by USAID on the project (a mural painting). Perhaps in due time, the Trump administration will find all the details about it.
The December 2024 project is not the first time that Parañaque’s CENRO was involved with USAID which you can see by clicking here. This past January, the USAID – CCBO team visited Parañaque to “conduct a dry run of the Waste Sorting Line.”
For the newcomers reading this, if you want to learn about USAID and what the scandal is all about, watch and learn from the YouTube videos below. The scandal is only growing.
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you aware of the project in your city involving the scandalous USAID? If you have seen the project, do you find it questionable or acceptable? Do you think the project in Barangay La Huerta benefits the citizens of Parañaque at all? Do you think projects that emphasize climate change or environmentalist propaganda are needed in Parañaque City at all? Can you speculate how much in American taxpayer Dollars were spent by USAID in Parañaque City? If you are an American, how do you feel about your tax Dollars being spent in several USAID projects in the Philippines and around the world?
