My Top 5 Posts in 2010

I started blogging in 2007. It was fellow blogger and colleague Kabataan Party-list Rep. Mong Palatino who introduced and prodded me to start blogging. Before, my posts were personal experiences and recollection of daily endeavors. This year, my blog posts leveled up to political issues and more serious concerns, though I did not really stop posting personal thoughts.

As we finally bid goodbye to 2010 and welcome the year 2011 with greater might and inspiration from the masses, this writer vows to write more relevant issues and concerns (still with some light and not-so-serious posts).;p

Below are some of the top posts that got the most number of views from readers and followers.

1) My Recollection of My Best Days at NUSP

This was written after speaking at a students' congress organized by the National Union of Students of the Philippines (NUSP), my first affiliation from way back. I have always been inspired by the vigor and dynamism of these young student leaders.

2) Death Eaters in Congress

Written after Rep. Palatino delivered a speech titled, "She-Who-Cannot-be-Named-in-the-Plenary". This post used terms and other moniker from the book Harry Potter. Guess who the Death Eater is?

3) Let the Sunshine In.

This measure, House Bill 2592 or the BPO Workers and Welfare Act of 2010, elicited much support from BPO workers, parents and concerned groups and individuals. I have actually written several articles on the BPO bill. Read here and here.

4) Ka Roda:Ang iyong pagyao at libong pagpupugay

This year, we lost a number of dear friends and colleagues; one of them is the country's much-loved transport leader Ka Roda.

5) Captured moments, Reps in action during budget deliberations

Here is a collection of some pictures taken during the action-packed budget. deliberations.
