Being Extra Careful Today With No Money

Living today is not as easy and as safe as it is before. The good old days had us living simply. They say with the advent of technology, things will be easier, safer and faster. But technology has its pros and cons. Say for example, the cellular phone being one of those communication tools, also became a tool for crooks or hoodlums to breed crimes and inflict harm on people. Technology made it even easier for these evildoers.

And because it is easy for people with the aid of technology, it became apparently easy for people to deliberately do offenses against the law. What is ironic is it is not as easy to get justice and attention for the wrongdoings of others in the Philippines. There maybe law agencies here that can give assistance like that of a Morristown personal injury lawyer but what would it cost one prosecuting party? A lot.

It maybe a good thing that there is the Public Attorney's Office that has a mandate for the indigent sector when they need legal assistance or counsel. But how much the public knows about this agency is still a big question. How much support is being given to the agency can also be an argument. The thing is, it is really needed to be extra careful today when one has no money. It is not a guarantee but it could help.

    You know what, I've been following Philippine news via TV Patrol and was shocked at recent salvagings in Manila. Apparently, these were the work of vigilantes - those that have been frustrated so long enough about the glacier speed of justice in the Philippines that they now put justice in their own hands. This is quite scary - what if every victim will resort to this?

  2. not only in Manila, nomadic pinoy. there are also news about davao and the complaints on the vigilantes there.

    true, it is against the law and it is scary but perhaps some people really had become hopeless putting justice in their own hands.

  3. Hi Bing. Sorry it took me this long to come see your blog. You've made a comment on my Cactus Salad blog post and I've just been there looking for someone, and I saw your name.

    In any event, thanks for the comment. I'll come again, and perhaps we can link also.
