I heard on the news that P-Noy made it on time to the Malacanang Palace today. He kept his promise not to be late when he came in 30 minutes late for the AFP Command-Change Ceremony last week. He said it would be the first and (hopefully) the last time that he would be late for an important occasion. He even said sorry for the inconvenience. He arrived late because he got stuck in traffic. He would have prevented being late had he allowed his convoy to use police siren or “wang-wangâ€. However, P-Noy is very much against using siren (one of the highlights of his inaugural speech) if not for emergency purposes like disaster or man-made calamity. Do you think P-Noy is doing the right thing by setting a good example to the Filipino people? I heard some responsible car owners took upon themselves to remove the siren from their vehicle.

Using a siren is one of the privileges that PNoy must take advantage of especially if it’s an official function that he has to attend. Instead of wasting his time in traffic, he should just use it for doing something productive. Besides, being stuck in traffic is a security threat for him. Don’t you think so?
Hi Gee. With regards to being late in his appointments, I think he has solved it already by waking up early. as for the threats, I don’t think anyone can come close to the President with the number of PSG personnel surrounding him…
That’s one thing that John notices in our country, drivers uses a siren/honk all the time whereas here, you seldom hear it.
Those who use the sirens indiscriminately feel as if they own the road and can get away with anything. They intimidate and threaten other motorists. sobra yabang nila sa kalsada.
For me tama lang na tanggaling ung mga unauthorized wang-wang. Pero okay lang kung siya at si VP Binay dahil privileges nila ito. Ang nakaka irita lang sa mga may wang-wang ung pagaastang mga hari ng daan.
Na parang convoy ng kung sinong head ng kung anong department…kahit na tricycle sis may wang-wang eh. with VP Binay naman, mukhang masama pa ang loob ni Binay na sumunod noh kasi halata sa mukha niya while being interviewed…well.
