FoI: “Folly of Information”

Ignorance is bliss. Knowledge is dangerous. The less people know, the better for their own comfort and peace of mind. The more secrets are kept by their government, the more tranquil are the citizens. Such erratic principles and convictions can be considered as the composite premise of the new “Folly of Information” legislative agendum.

yung iba daw pwedeng busisain ng husto, siyang "pangulo" abs ay hindi maari.
"That is why there is now an infinitely better version of the FoI Bill, Act or something. With much less key information accorded to the general public, the greater “transparency and accountability in government transactions” will there be. Huh?
"In fact, such is the honest to goodness rectification and complementation of the original bill. Wow! For all intents and purposes, leave the present administration alone in the context of “Papa knows best!” — In Malacañang own world of the “matuwid na daan.” Really? Is this so hard to understand? Yes! Is there any doubt of any kind about the proven competence, established integrity and manifest industry of the now reigning dynastic administration? Yes!"
