I think this should go to [EMAIL PROTECTED], Onel de Guzman should
help Gerry fighting against PLDT to bring down the cost of
telecommunication services...
Orlando, I think you are pretty right here. Unfortunately, not all
people think that way. If only everyone in this country will think
the way you do, how great would it be? What happens usually is when I
ask some of my friends, employees of our company, etc. regarding this
issue, there response are:
"galing ng Pinoy noh"
"magaling talaga ang Pinoy"
"nagulat sila na nagawa ito ng Pinoy"
I carbon copied this reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED], hope you don't mind.
Your post is sure worth to read for everyone of us.
Regards/
Jerome
