Excellent Security Guards at UP Ayala Land Technohub

I would like to commend the security guards at UP Ayala Land Technohub. Some of them still do the routine polite greetings like 'Good morning!' or 'Good evening!'. Some of them are also very gentlemanly. When I get off work at ridiculous times of the day, and I go to Commonwealth Avenue to wait for a bus, they actually do helpful things that are probably not part of their job description. One time when I got off work at about 5:30am, one guard actually did the waving at a bus for me and I was able to ride one fast. Another time, it was very very late, around 12:50am, no one else was around apart from one guard assigned at the gate, he actually went near me as if to accompany me as I wait for the next bus. Things like this are quite touching especially when you just had a truly long day at the office. I thank God for people like them.

GMA's State-of-the-Nation Address (SONA) on July 27th

On July 27, 2009, Monday, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo will deliver her State-of-the-Nation Address at the Batasang Pambansa (House of Representatives) along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City. SONA day is also a time when protesters voice out their complaints and disgust against the president and the current administration.

Security measures are already being done in preparation for the big day. They not only cover Commonwealth Avenue but also all of Metro Manila.

There is still no advice as to the traffic rerouting scheme that will be done at Commonwealth Avenue. Will it be closed? If it will be closed, at what points? Will there be consideration of the length of the sacrificial walk that people, who need to go to UP Technohub, will need to take on that day?

May the President and everyone be safe as the SONA is delivered. May the people's voice be heard. May that day be a great day. And may the sacrificial walk be tolerable.
