I was a fan of Dick Gordon, the man who they called The Flash. He was full of idealism and a natural leader. I would love to be seated next to him. I would love to catch the same breath of air that passes through his sense of national pride.
I first saw him on TV after the tragic 1990 major Luzon earthquake. He was there saving lives in the cities of Baguio and Cabanatuan. Those cities were the hardest hit with several collapsed buildings and hotels. He was then armed with his advanced SBMA units doing search and rescue operations. His efforts are rarely seen from politicians and public servants anywhere in the country. And to think that Olongapo is actually hours away from these cities makes it even more heroic.
Gordon, gadgetry, flash, hero. Who wouldn’t fancy any young guy’s idealism and imagination?
Then I saw him again during the US Bases debates. I personally advocated for the restoration of our national sovereignty and thus against the presence of the US bases in Subic and Clark. While he was on the other side, he got a compelling argument.
The economy of Olongapo and the surrounding areas are deeply dependent on these bases. And taking them out without proper plans on how to transform the bases without affecting local economies would be crucial for the local people. He knew what he wanted and he knows how to do it. The magnificent 12 wanted the bases out but lack the vision on how to transform these bases.
He, as far as I see on the national debates, has one. He was young, surrounded by young lawyers, young activists, and fresh faces. There was a new hope that springs upon his face every time I see him on TV. He was simply charismatic.
Then I came to Olongapo…
I saw organization. All were organized. From the business community down to the balut vendors and the magbobote, they all have their organizations with their matching uniforms and identifying colors.
What’s wrong with that you say? Nothing. Except that you cannot do business if you are not a member. You cannot sell balut if you are not one of them. What’s wrong again with that you say? Well, you cannot be a member if you don’t follow the rules. Ergo, if you don’t follow the rules, you are economically dead. There’s nothing wrong about having rules right?
Not if there’s only one rule. Their rules.
With all their famous agitating slogans that you can see all over Olongapo’s walls, he got one that is not so famous among Olongapenos, “Kung ayaw mo sa patakaran ko, lumayas ka ng Olongapo!”
Now it certainly makes me wonder IF he becomes President.
Political dynasties may not necessarily be bad but nepotism is at it worst here. You had no choice but the Gordons. Streets, hospitals, schools, they’re all named after the Gordons. You had no choice but whatever they say your choice would be. The congressman, the city mayor down to mere barangay councilors are all Gordons. The SBMA was also run by Dick Gordon at that time until Erap took him out. And only until recently, a Magsaysay took over the Congress position.
Public utilities were under city hall. Water, electricity, garbage. And by experience, they can use their power over these PUD’s to put anybody back in line. I knew a lot of people who got tired of voting for Gordon and guess what? They put the lights out of their businesses until they went bankrupt.
For two years, I got no job in Olongapo because I refuse to follow the rules. The main job source was the SBMA which was run by them. At that time, applicants were required to provide your voter’s ID. This is for them to map out where you vote so they can ask the barangay leader there if you are “one of them.”
For outsiders, the presence of organizations and usual unified mobilization in Olongapo shows a vibrant democratic process. Little did they know that all these are mobilized and organized only under one name, and only under one rule.
Non-conformity is strictly forbidden.
So when I first heard about the Transformers a.k.a. the Gordon-Bayani team-up, I was amused but not surprised. They simply belong together.
You see while it may seem it is but necessary to have rules and organization, in the greater scheme of things, leaving people out of options is not only dreadful, it is despotic in nature. Organization without leaving room for discourse is a democratic façade for dictatorship.
Besides, even religions give us the option to use our free will.
I knew a lot of people who got tired of voting for Gordon and guess what? They put the lights out of their businesses until they went bankrupt.
– where are your facts or sources to prove this claim?
For two years, I got no job in Olongapo because I refuse to follow the rules.
– here you see why. “i refuse to follow the rules.” rules are set in place for a reason.
in every single thing, there is the bad that may sometimes come with the good. what would you rather have– an ordered city maintained and thriving because of the discipline that has been instilled in them, albeit forcefully? or one with democracy and free reign, which is what you would probably see in most parts of our country?
you decide.
i like him too. He did a good job.
.-= ruthy´s last blog ..Kaye and Pehpot’s Blogversary Contest =-.
actually ruthy, the article is NOT in favor of Gordon. hehehe. but like we say, to each his own. di ba?
on opinion: i am not afraid of dissent. but at least you should be unafraid to at least put a real email address on your profile to at least put a face into it. in the blogging world, even if it can be fictitious, it can provide a sense of validity to your personality as compared to making comments anonymously.
but of course, it does not mean your points are invalid. hence i will answer your points.
one reason why we take anonymity seriously is that what we put up in our blog can be legally liable. ergo, we put our names and our faces behind every word we say. that means we mean what we say. otherwise, i will put an addendum saying it is NOT a fact. but said it is therefore I can back it up.
I will not name names of who those business owners were for the sake of their privacy. It is their right you know. but I can say that in court if need be.
regarding the rules, like I said there is nothing wrong with the rules. except that rules should be made in accordance with everybody concerned, not just by a single family. like I said I got no job because I refuse to follow the rules (it means I am not a pro-Gordon). where else can you found a discriminating job requirement like that?
I know what you will say, take a look at Singapore, Gordon is like Lee Kuan Yew. but have we take a second look at what democracy means?
democracy is not populism. we all know that what is popular may not necessarily good. democracy is the voice of the majority but without disenfranchising the minority. instilling discipline by force would not work simply because it would create a repulsive effect.
a police state is despotic.
whew
matagal ko nang naririnig pangalan ni Gordon,pero di ako naeenganyong iboto sya.. tama ka buraot, hindi ito pro-Gordon na post… baka hindi nya binasa ng buo.. lolz
.-= zoan´s last blog ..Home Buddies Review =-.
wouldn’t it be great if the whole country will be like Olongapo where people follow the rule and people like Buraot can rant all against it without being punished or killed? I’d like to see that happen.
Being a pro-Gordon is a job requirement? Pls. expound on that. I’m also not particular on the rules which you say are “their rules” so I hope you shed a light on that as well.
And: I knew a lot of people who got tired of voting for Gordon and guess what? They put the lights out of their businesses until they went bankrupt.
- something’s amiss here. The stunt doesn’t sound smart to me. And if anything these people should have flailed their way outside of Olangapo and sought help from officials in Manila, right? I mean these are their businesses.
zoan: yea, di nga nya siguro nabasa ng buo.
Sony, pretty much in the whole country, we can do this. And it would not just be nice, it also how democracy works. If we see something bad, we can say something against it. You can call this a rant if you like.
But you see, I didn’t block your comment even though it’s anonymous. Again, that’s how democracy works.
But if you care to read other articles, you would be surprised to know that in Olongapo, having your opinions and rights stated publicly can be deadly too.
And if your statement is an implied threat, sorry marami na akong death threats, hindi na yan bago.
N: at that time he’s running the SBMA, once you apply for a job inside the SBMA, you have to provide a copy of your voter’s ID complete with the precinct number. Why is that? Of course they would not categorically say why. But we could always deduce right.
It is not easy to do. I am referring to small business people. The big businesspeople, sempre di basta magalaw. Demandahan lang ang abot. But the small business, they had no choice. I have this neighbor whose business is to supply power transformers. And therefore, majority of his business is with the power utility of the city, which, since it’s city owned, is managed by the Gordons.
He ran in the local election. Unfortunately for him, not under the Gordon fold. So what happens to his business then? After election, it ran aground. Can he sue? of course not.
Sir I’ll be commenting honestly, and I do so with respect for your opinions. I just felt the need to state these things that I felt upon reading what you wrote. I hope you don’t take them wrongly. If you do, I apologize in advance.
first, there’s something so bitter about what you wrote.
If businesses didn’t do well, maybe it didn’t have what it took to stay too long. It doesn’t mean that there was a conspiracy of some sort. That is just paranoid thinking. or that too escapist. Businesses sometimes thrive, and more often than not, their “lights run out, and go bankrupt”. People always blame anything or anyone. the land the leaders authorities, whoever they can. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY, OWN YOUR FAILURE, STAND UP AND TRY AGAIN. cause it happens.
Maybe you didn’t get a job in Olongapo because you weren’t eligible. First, you said it yourself, you refused to follow the rules. I’m an employer, and anyone who refuses to follows rules and is even proud of it is someone I wouldn’t want to hire either.
There are times when individualism stands out and should be encouraged, but in my opinion, when we talk about a community or the success of a society, teamwork, discipline and upholding the higher good over individual gain or ego is more important.
So what if it is their rules, or whatever it is that you stated? The laws that they implement serve their people well. The pride for their town, of people from Olongapo, those that I have met and have heard about is unparalleled. The discipline that they have is to be envied, actually.
“But if you care to read other articles, you would be surprised to know that in Olongapo, having your opinions and rights stated publicly can be deadly too.”
- state proof. Serious allegations like these should have truths backing them up, as to not sound hollow and common, and just stated for the sheer purpose of bashing.
“And if your statement is an implied threat, sorry marami na akong death threats, hindi na yan bago.”
-no threat whatsoever in what he wrote, for what it’s worth.
I hope you found neutrality in what I said. No offense meant if there was any taken.
All the best sir!
luanne,
thank you for taking the time to share something. no offense taken here.
first, yes, there is clearly bitterness there. wouldn’t you be if your rights had been repressed?
second, there is or maybe at least was (i don’t know if it;s still going on) discrimination when it comes to doing business in Olongapo. if we search business owners there, most of them are pro-Gordons or at least neutral. it may not seem so big a deal, but let me put it this way, if you are a businessman and you happen to support a candidate opposing Gordon, that shouldn’t be a problem right?
i am not here to put any blame. was just trying to point out the not so obvious due to Gordon’s huge PR machinery. if we google his name, all you would see is resume. why I do have a problem with that? because a lot of people from Olongapo like me who are complaining about his dictatorial tendencies but were being ignored.
rules are meant to provide order, and i accept that. when i said i refuse to follow the rules, it means HIS rules which is: to apply for a job, you need to present your voter’s ID. why is that? we all know why they need it. because once they found outn you voted for the other candidate, you would be denied employment.
you ask proof? read my other articles A Day in a Life in Olongapo. if you don’t believe what I say, footages from 3rd party like GMA 7 probably would be enough.
yes, there was an implied threat. just read between the lines.
“wouldn’t it be great if the whole country will be like Olongapo where people follow the rule and people like Buraot can rant all against it without being punished or killed? I’d like to see that happen.”
what was that suppose to mean, “I’d like to see that happen”? that extra phrase is not needed to justify the first sentence. quite obviously, we can “rant” without being killed. so it being a suffix is an implied threat.
but thanks for being nice about it, even if we don’t agree.
voters id lang pala ang laki ng sama ng loob mo. pumunta ka nalang sa pnp para sa police clearance o passport napakadami ng requirements mo kay hirap makakuha pag hindi kumpleto ang papel. pag kulang, hindi aaprubahan. minsan sa trabaho pupunta ka pa sa munisipyo para kumuha ng birth cert., tapos medical etc. etc. o kung ano pang mga usual ng kailangan pag ganyan. e kung dito voters id lang ang requirement di ang dali ng buhay. at bakit their rules their rules ka pa e isa lang yun, hiningan ka lang ng requirement, na legal namang gawin nila
wala naman atang masama kung diskresyon nila na gusto nila ng voters id kasi iba ang sinasabi ng may ganun, ibig sabihin seryosong mamamayan ka, botante ka, bumoto ka, may karapatan ka mag reklamo. hindi ka yung tulad ng ibang walang pakialam na puro reklamo nalang pero hindi naman rehistrado.
at pare hindi naman nalalaman kung sino ang binoboto mo based sa voter’s ID. hindi naman na rerecord yung binoboto mo e. ano yun may camera? may mga kilala akong nagbenta ng boto pero yung totoong candidato naman nila ang ibinoto nila, lusot naman. requirement lang yon kahit sa ibang lugar. Dito sa bangko sa may saamin kasama yun sa possible requirements pag magbubukas ng account. walang koneksyon yon sa pag alam kung sino ang binoto mo noong nakaraang eleksyon. madaming ginagawa ang mga tao para isa isahin ang mga past vote history na tingin ko e imposibleng gawin
“wouldn’t it be great if the whole country will be like Olongapo where people follow the rule and people like Buraot can rant all against it without being punished or killed? I’d like to see that happen.”
-tol sinasabi lang nya na gusto nya ng lugar na may freedom of speech na totoo. Sa olongapo kasi ganun. walang koneksyon sayo maliban sa pag halimbawa sayo sa nakararaming mareklamo. tingin ko napraning ka lang.
malay mo may kamaganak yan na napapatay noon o kahit ngayon nung ampatuan o iba pang paraan. ngayon ang pagiging journalist e delikado dito. at madaming taong pinapapatay talaga. sabi mo ikaw na mismo madaming death threat.
troy,
eh eng eng ka naman ata eh. di naman ako katulad mo na ipinanganak kahapon. alam natin kung bakit kelangan ng voter’s ID. hindi pa ba sapat na dahilan ang pag-a-apply ng trabaho para sbihing seryosong mamamayan ka? at pag tambay ka ba at walang trabaho ibig sabihin na nito hindi ka seryoso? ambabaw ng dahilan mo teng.
at wala akong sinabing dahil sa voter;s ID malalaman na ang ibinoto mo. pakibasa ulet ang article. ginagamit nila ang voter;s ID to map ung saang presinto ka bumoboto. at itinatanong dun sa puro eader dun sa lugar mo kung kanino ka sumusuporta sa pulitika.
saka hindi nga sya ang ibinoto ko eh. ibig sabihin, nakaboto ako at sempre, rehistrado. pero kung sakaling hindi, ano naman ang pakialam kung hindi? ang tanong labag yun sa huiman rights ninuman. ang maging requirement ang iyong political affiliation.
besides, hindi iyon LANG ang requirement. isa lamang yun. nagtatanga tangahan ka lang eh. san ka ba naman mag-a-apply na iisa lang ang requirement.
may karapatan magrekamo? wahahaha! nagpapatawa ka. sa olongapo, oo may karapatan kang magreklamo. pero pagkatapos, lagi kang lilingon sa likod mo.
tol dun sa thearts, wala ngang ganun sa gapo eh, yun ang sinasabi ko. so anong dahilan bat nadagdag yung second sentence. sabi ko nga, i can read between the lines.
pero sige, hindi sya threat. naoraning lang ako. pero kung naging karanasan mo ang karanasan ko sa gapo, baka mapraning ka din.
ngayon, wag ka sanag mapraning sa mga sinasabi ko, direct to the point lang ang sinabi ko. katulad ng sinasabi ko lagi, di naman tayo lahat palaging agree sa lahat ng bagay. pero salamat sa pagpuna at pagbibigay mo ng opinyon.
.-= BURAOT´s last blog ..The Forty-Eight List =-.
Down in the SBMA when he was still Chairman, they would have this monthly pep talks with the new employees in the freeport–that’s where they actually lay down the rules–most of which strated with DO NOT.
Kawawa ka if you had a moustache and dressed shabbiliy dahil sigurado papatayuin ka sa harap and will use you as a bad example for grooming.
Nice post.
@Kiko: wahahaha! pero alam ko idol mo pa rin si blue. ako din naman oks sa kanya tol, problema ko lang talaga yung pagbabalewala nya sa due process at karapatan ng ibang tao. pero other than that, he’s a great leader.
“Down in the SBMA when he was still Chairman, they would have this monthly pep talks with the new employees in the freeport–that’s where they actually lay down the rules–most of which started with DO NOT.”
- So, what’s wrong with this? Ayaw nyo ba ng pep talk at disiplina?
Buraot, do you have proof that they use the voter’s id to check if pro-Gordon ka? Madali kasi gawan ng chismis nyan. Gordon has always been for citizen participation. Let’s say, ginawa yang job requirement to encourage citizen participation. Syempre, yung anti-Gordon (siguro yung mga nabangga nyang ego), magkakalat ng chismis na para daw yan ma-checheck ang boto mo.
Sa akin lng, if Gordon is really one to resort to such ways, how come one of the first laws he drafts as Senator is a law automating the elections, which also secures the voter’s identity?
the seeker: like i always said, walang masama sa disiplina, in fact kailangan natin yan. pero lahat ng sobra, hindi na rin maganda. sa wento ni kiko, namamahiya sya ng tao.
back dun sa tanong mo, yes i have. bakit ko naman sasabihin kung hindi, e di naidemanda ako ng libel. totoo naman yun. kapag ikaw identified ka na iba ang sinuportahan mo, o kaya eh political kang tao at ang pulitika mo ay taliwas sakanila, di ka mabibigyan ng trabaho.
it is not possible to check kung sino ang ibinoto mo kapag nakita nila ang voter’s id mo. ang way nila to check is they will verify kung saang barangay ka bumoboto, saang purok, at saang presinto. once ma-established yun, tatanungin lang nila yung lider nila dun sa lugar. at knowing ang pagiging matindi nila sa monitoring, yakang yaka yun.
but of course, yung mga walang pakelam at apolitical, pwede. lalung-lalo na yung supporters nila.
automated elections? tingin mo naman me kinalaman yun.
Gordon is a good candidate, it will be interesting how this elections will play out.

hoy ryan,
basahin mo kaya mabuti yung nakasulat dito bago ka nagngungunguyngoy dyan. eh boplaks ka pala eh. oo maraming requirements sa pag-aaply. pero san ka naman nakakaita ng hinahanapan ng voter’s ID. kung ikaw tanga ka at di mo alam kung bakit, wag mo idamay yung iba na marunong mag-isip. bawal ang tanga sa olongapo. hindi batas yun brad, pauso lang nila. at kung hindi mo pa alam, discrimination yun. itanong mo pa sa CHR.
at boplaks ka rin talaga, hindi mo ba naintindihan na yung ibig sabihin dito ay maraming di makapasok sa trabaho hndi lang ako.
at hindi naman siguro ako kagaya mo na mag-aaply sa isang trabahong hindi ako qualified. ano ako, ikaw?
kung ang mga pilipino katulad mo na kahit tinatapakan na ang karapatan, eh talagang gagaguhin lang tayo lagi ng mga trapo.

ayaw ni godon ng ganyang tatanga tanga.
@Buraot, Im glad na pinost mo to… nabibigyan ng linaw ang tingin ng mga tao sa mga Gordon… Well, Diba 2 years ka lang sa Gapo? at di ka nakakuha ng Work? Well, hindi kasalanan ng mga Gordon yun… at hindi lahat ng streets nakapangalan sa kanila… Pinapalabas mo ba na… Tingin ng mga Gordon, Sila na yung may-ari ng Subic? Well, if ganun nga… The answer is No… at hindi kailangan na PRO-GORDON ka para magkatrabaho ka sa Olongapo…
Gregg,
di ko maintindihan ibig mong sabihin. kung pabor o hindi ka sa mga sinasabi ko. pero hindi ako “2 years lang” sa gapo. hindi man ako “taal” na taga-gapo (which is halos lahat naman) dun na ako mula pa pagka-alis ko ng kolehiyo hanggang magkapamilya. at hanggang ngayon taga-olongapo pa rin ako.
hindi ko pinapalabas na pag-aari ng mga gordon ang Olongapo (hindi Subic).
sa huling sagot mo, marahil ngayon hindi na. kasi hindi na nila hawak ang SBMA. noon, uubra ka lang kung ikaw ay apolitical o supporters nila. pag identified kang kontra sa kanila, malabo.
.-= BURAOT´s last blog ..The Lords of Olongapo =-.
I agree with buraot. Have same story. If Shareman Gordon is not your shareholder, forget going into any business in Olongapo that will compete with Shareman’s many “shared” business.
is it true na walang mcdonalds sa gapo during gordon’s time
inside the SBMA there was McDonalds at the time of Dick, pero nagsara. Cindy’s I think belongs to them, but there was no longer a Cindy’s. and when I left Gapo, there was already a Jollibbee.
.-= BURAOT´s last blog ..Have Gordon Created Gapo’s Culture of Fear? =-.
who was the mayor when you left gapo?
it was still Kate. but when i left it was an election period and Bong was the one running against Bobbie F.
very true chuck. ask Susan Kho and Kenneth Glass, two of the investors who complained.
nabasa ko yang kenneth glass na yan sa article ni padre. so it’s true.
fz: i had no personal knowledge. kasi at that time na nanagyayari yan, busy ako sa organizing. naririnig ko lang. pero most probabaly true. kasi ganun naman talaga ang style nina Dick noon. rally dito rally don, nire-require yung mga investors na sila rin sumama palagi which requires them to stop production sempre, tapos yung expenditures dun hinihingi sa investors.
Why not try to get all the requirements and see if you can get a job? You should have at least tried rather than saying all these things without even proving that you have to be “one of them” to be employed. I can say that not all people from Olongapo that has a job are pro Gordon. And i guess you can agree with that, right?
dj, of course i do agree that not all are pro-Gordon. that wasn’t contrary to what i have said that one can get a job if they are apolitical or doesn’t get involve in politics or city taxes or city policies. in fact if i wanted a job, i only needed to shut my mouth.
but that’s not the issue then. why is there such a requirement in the first place? doesn’t that strike you as odd? we can always blame it on the bureaucracy but c’mon, people are not born yesterday.
fyi, after Gordon left, I did get a job. without giving up the info on where I vote.
prinsipyo ang pinairal ni buraot. maraming tao ang wala nang ganoon. hehe
hay kuya, pinagpawisan ako sa pagbabasa nito at ng mga comments.. at na-entertain ako sobra hehe… masasabi ko lang, just keep on blogging

to buraot:
if you ever read the contents of this blog you’ll surely realize that you started good but irrational all along! read the comments and see how non-sense your stances were. if the people in olangapo did not welcome you that is a good thing i believe… it’s like people patronizing their own or “the FILIPINO first policy” but just exclusive to the people there… syempre they should think that way, why? tumulong ka ba sa kanila para ma-iahon ang bayan nila from the pinatubo? nagvolunteer kaba? pumasok ka lang sa subic when it was already developed, KAPAL! sa madaling salita you want things easy… sabi nga ni dick gordon, “walang kayud, walang kain.” you have to work your way up and stop complaining! i hope God will enlighten you!
Buraot, wag mo masyado pinagpapapansin yang mga iba dyan. kahit na anong ipukol nila sa yo, ayos lang yan. ang mahalaga, malaman ng mga tao ang totoo. na hindi lahat ng taga0olongapo sumasamba kay Gordon.
na sa kabila ng magandang papogi nya sa ibang lugar, isa syang dicktador. kawawa tayong mga pilipino kung sya ay mananalo. mabuti na lang hindi. pasalamat na lang tayo.
salamat sa katapangan mo.

alam mo ba kung ano ang ginagawa ng mga tao sa eskwater? nakalimutan na nilang mangarap, nakuntento na sila sa isang kahig isang tuka, walang masama dun kaya lang ang sabi ni Lynda C. Corpuz sa website ni dick.
Learn a skill. Poverty is an absence of choice. That’s why you have to continue learning. You have to learn a skill. I never tell people “good luck.” I always tell them “good skill.” Be creative. Nasa Diyos ang awa, nasa tao ang gawa. God gave you skills. God will not help you if you don’t help yourself.
Be ambitious. Umaasa tayo lagi sa tulong. Kahit anong hirap mo, you have to be ambitious. Being ambitious is not negative
