Pres. Duterte to Form an Independent Commission to Investigate SAF 44 Case

Philippine President Rodrigo "Rody" Duterte announced during a meeting with the relatives of SAF 44 victims that h will form an independent commission to investigate the controversial SAF 44 case. The botched operation for the capture of international terrorist Marwan caused the death of the 44 elite members of the Special Action Forces of the PNP.


According to Pres. Duterte the independent commission will investigate the SAF 44 case from the time Pres. Aquino hatched the plan up to the massacre of the elite members of the PNP during deadly clash in Mamasapano, Maguindanao.

During the meeting with the relatives and families of the 44 elite SAF members, Pres. Duterte stated that the former Pres. Aquino let his office as chief executive without addressing the SAF 44 issues.

Pres. Duterte would like to know and in fact he wanted to asked former Pres. Aquino why he sent SAF 44 to Mamasapano instead of sending the Philippine Army who are familiar with the terrain.

The first President from Mindanao would like to know also why is it that Pres. Aquino and DILG Sec. Mar Roxas kept the operations under wraps without informing the military.

Pres. Duterte also questioned the strategy of Pres. Aquino about the $5 million reward for the capture of Marwan and where did it go. He also wanted to know why the SAF44 are taking orders from suspended PNP Chief Purisima.


The former Mayor of Davao City also revealed that he was pissed off by Pres. Aquino's demeanor when he learned about the deaths of SAF44. He also told the former President to confess his sins to the nation.

Pres. Duterte also questioned the decision of the former President to reward only 2medals of valor despite the fact that all of the 44 SAF members died during the Mamasapano operation.

During the later portion of Pres. Duterte's speech he instructed PNP Chief Gen. Bato Dela Rosa on the conferment of medals of valor to all SAF44 heroes, which carries benefits for the families. Pres. Duterte also added that he will assign a day of remembrance for SAF44 and SAF44 Heroes.

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
