They go to the computer cafe for their computer needs,unlike here in US. But there is no power most of the days, so you are correct about the uselessness of decimating information via my blog. Two years ago, the catholic church ( bishop of Boac) got involve with this problem. There was a public rally. A short term solution resulted. But for the long term solution, I do not have the foggest idea for a solution right now. Suggestion anyone?David B Kataguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09798269891967237168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3189412753642432367.post-10251082833129051252011-07-31T13:03:45.301-07:002011-07-31T13:03:45.301-07:00My mistake, I was not thinking right.

I wonder if the people will be able to do a people power.<br /><br />Filipinos are basically complacent, unless it is their lives that are threatened, they will just accept their fate. I don't know how else we could solve the power crisis in Marinduque.<br /><br />Marinduque LoverAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3189412753642432367.post-625397776348520242011-07-28T16:34:55.154-07:002011-07-28T16:34:55.154-07:00Hi Marinduque Lover: I agree on your comment not ...Hi Marinduque Lover: I agree on your comment not to quit but help to find a solution to the problem. However, the problem has its roots so deep, it will take a miracle and the support of all Marinduquenos in all levels of society. Just in case you have not read the background behind this crises, several articles on the subject had been written by a blogger currently residing in Marinduque. If you are interested, let me know. By the way, how did you find this site? Again, thanks for your comment and feedback.David B Kataguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09798269891967237168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3189412753642432367.post-77434867661977626232011-07-28T14:05:05.897-07:002011-07-28T14:05:05.897-07:00You do not turn your back and quit on your paradis...You do not turn your back and quit on your paradise. You have worked so long and to promote the place. You should help and find a solution to the energy crisis instead of threatening to avoid the situation. <br /><br />You are right, and the citizens of the island should petition the leaders such as the governor, mayors and congressmen to do something, and continuously bother them until it is solved. The people should take it in their hands to do something. You can use your blog as a tool to inform the people. Provide them with solutions, copy what is being done in nearby islands where power generation is sufficient. If Marelco management has to be fired, and so be it. Use cooperatives or let the people run the power company, there must be enough engineers in the island.<br /><br />Marinduque LoverAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
