911 - Pinas Style

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

[localized post. come back tomorrow for something in English]

Hindi maipagkakaila na masayahin ang mga pilipino. Gusto mo ng patunay? Isipin mo yung 911 hotline. Sa ibang bansa gaya ng States, pag nagdial ka ng 911, kahit ano pa problema mo, sunog, krimen, sakit sa puso, sakit sa sunog na krimen, may darating agad na tulong, mabilis pa sa alas-kwatro.

Dito sa Pilipinas, pag may emergency tapos ginawa mo yun, pag tumawag ka ng 911, may reresponde rin ng mabilis na mabilis. Pero imbes na tulong ng ambulansya o firetruck makukuha mo, ang darating sa bahay mo e lalaking nakamotorsiklo.


Taena, wala ngang papatay ng sunog, pero at least may pizza ka diba? 30 minutes or less yun "or your next pizza is free"! Pag may palm card ka may libre na isa pang pizza saka pepsi max. Ayus. Kulang na lang yung component ng kapitbahay, pwede ka na magjamming. Yun nga lang, pag sakit sa puso yung itinawag mo medyo sa langit mo na uubusin yung stuffed crust kasi dedbols ka na. Pero at least happy diba?

Walang ganyan sa States!

Davao (where I'm from) uses 911 as a fire and police hotline.

That's the funny thing about the Philippines, the emergency numbers (not counting the local police or fire landlines-- yeesh!) vary from place to place. We've a long way to go before things get fixed, it seems.

Oh yeah, just stumbled upon this blog. Really good work, and I must say I like the entries thus far. I don't know which cosplay site linked to this but I found it from there. I share your sentiments regarding the cons and big events. Keep up the good work, I find your entries to be absorbing and informative. :D
