The Grab app offers users unparalleled convenience when traveling. Their drivers are known for being respectful and reliable as required under the company’s strict execution of their policies. 

Recently, another touching story about a Grab driverand his passenger took the internet by storm, warming the hearts of many netizens.

Nix Obispo’s faith in humanity was restored after she encountered a Grab driver who rendered more than the service that she needed. She immediately shared her story on her Facebook account and it has already garnered thousands of reactions.

According to Nix, she booked a Grab Taxi because she felt the need to be rushed to an emergency room after feeling a severe pain in her stomach. She kindly asked the driver to bring her to The Medical City in Ortigas in the fastest way that he could. 

The driver named Joven realized the urgency of the situation so he did all he could to reach the medical facility. Once they reached the hospital, Joven refused to accept Nix’s payment, saying it was an emergency situation. However, Nix still insisted to pay him.

Nix thought that Joven would leave after bringing her to the hospital. However, she was surprised when Joven expressed his willingness to stay and look after her. Joven stayed in the hospital during the entire time Nix was being examined. 

Nix was then given medicine which made her sleep. 

To her surprise, Joven was still there when she woke up. The driver did not leave her until he was sure that she was fine. 

Nix then asked Joven to leave, saying she was feeling better. The driver left but not before reminding Nix to text him as soon as she returned home. 

Joven’s little act of kindness amazed Nix as she did not expect it from a stranger she just met.

Former Mayor Sanchez not eligible for release

Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra has allayed fears that former Calauan, Laguna Mayor Antonio Sanchez will be released through the good conduct time allowance (GCTA) system.

According to Guevarra, inmates convicted of heinous crimes, like Sanchez, are not entitled to benefit from the law cutting short the prison terms of inmates who have shown good behavior while serving their sentences.

" Eligibility under the 2013 law on expanded GCTA defines who are covered and said that among those who cannot benefit from that law are certain persons, such as recidivists, habitual delinquents, and persons charged of heinous crimes. That is a process of elimination," Guevarra explained.

Sanchez was sentenced to seven counts of reclusion perpetua or up to 40 years imprisonment by the Pasig Regional Trial Court in 1995 for the rape-slay of University of the Philippine (UP) Los Baños student Eileen Sarmenta and the murder of her boyfriend, Allan Gomez in 1993.

Four years later, the Supreme Court upheld the lower court's ruling against Sanchez.

While there is no existing definition of heinous crimes following the suspension of the Heinous Crimes Act (RA 7659), the term appeared in the expanded GCTA so Guevarra instructed Bureau of Corrections chief Nicanor Faeldon to thoroughly review cases for high profile or heinous crimes.

Aside from being guilty of heinous crimes, Sanchez also failed to show good behavior while incarcerated. During a random inspection in 2010, jail officers seized a kilo of shabu worth P1.5 million concealed in one of the Blessed Virgin Mary statues inside the former mayor's cell at the New Bilibid Prison. - ISMAEL AMIGO

In Thailand Transgender Women Have To Endure This Humiliation Just To Join the Army!

Thailand is known for having the highest number of gender reassignment surgeries conducted in the entire world. Many people from around the world travel to this country just to have their gender reassignment operations done without the stigma their home countries might have. 

Thailand is also known for its annual military draft day. During this day, 21-year-old males are required to attend the yearly ‘lottery’ to know if they are qualified to join their country's armed forces.

But what happens when transgender women are summoned to the draft day?

According to a report by NBC News, transgender women are subjected to humiliating practices during the draft. Their treatment is made worse by how the Thai mainstream media portrays transgenders - colloquially referred to as 'ladyboys'.

According to NBC News, exemptions were made for physically and mentally unfit young males as their health conditions hinder their military performance. 

The Thai Administrative Court also ordered transgender women to be exempted from this military obligation. 

However, a transgender woman still has her genetic gender encrypted in her government IDs and legal documents. Because of this, transgender women are still summoned for the draft day to prove that they are not faking their status as a ‘ladyboy’.

This annual attendance is a seemingly stressful event for many transgender women. 

NBC News reported that some of them felt embarrassed as they had to rip off their clothes to show their altered genitals. They have to do this in front of other Thai males who were also waiting for their eligibility to be confirmed. 

This embarrassment caused deep depression among the transgender women, who were treated as a laughing stock during draft day. 

Additionally, the Thai mainstreammedia contributes to the stigma against transgender women during the annual military draft day. 

Transgender women claim that the mainstream media portray them in a humorous and humiliating way.

However, because they are obligated to present themselves before the military officers, they were left with no choice but to follow orders. Unfortunately, this embarrassing incident has caused some transgender women to commit suicide.

Pangulong Duterte, sobrang nagalit sa sinapit ng 1-year-old na bata — Panelo

MANILA – President Rodrigo Duterte is “outraged” by the rape and killing of a one-year-old boy, whose body was later found in Makati, Malacañang said on Thursday.

Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo, who described the crime as “barbaric”, said Duterte was angered upon hearing the news.

“The tragic news has reached the attention of the President and he, like all Filipinos, has been extremely outraged by this heinous criminal act,” Panelo said in a statement.

Panelo, meanwhile, hailed the Philippine National Police (PNP) for the arrest of the suspect, 28-year-old Gerald Reparip, who owned up to the crime.

PNP said the suspect will be made to take a test to determine illegal drug use.

“Given the atrocity of this felony, investigation is also being undertaken to determine whether the suspect is under the influence of drugs,” Panelo said.

If proven that the suspect was indeed acting under the influence of drugs, Panelo said this should serve as a sign that the drug war should be beefed up.

“Siyempre ipapaimbestiga natin at lalong papaigtingin natin siguro ‘pag nalaman natin na kagagawan na naman ‘yan ng mga nasa droga (Of course, we will have that investigated and we will strengthen the drug war once we find out it is caused by illegal drugs),” Panelo said in a Palace briefing.

He also assured the public that authorities will bring justice to the young boy and his family.

Reports showed that Reparip admitted to raping the victim before eventually choking him to death.

The child’s body was later found by his grandmother on the 7th floor of an abandoned building along Yakal Street in San Antonio, Makati City.

The suspect admitted to being under the influence of alcohol. (PNA)
