“Dead Men tell no Tales” by Lourenzo Manimtim






Pablo Baen Santos "Krista" 1984

“Dead Men tell no Tales”

It is the perfect statement in describing the current status of our media today. Freedom of Speech and Expression is a must for any democratic country as it provides the voice and the rights of its citizens.

The Philippines until now remains to be one of the most dangerous places for journalists with lots of politicians and other officials killing journalists leaving a story without an ending. Leading to manipulation of events and corruption.

The media should become the medium for communication and voice for the people. To seek out the misdeeds and bad things done by the government for transparency and honesty.

Media in a sense can be good or bad, but if it is used wisely and there are no misconducts then media can always be trustworthy. Leaders are meant to become leaders not bosses, the government officials must be honest and competent in doing any of their work. Politicians will never fear the media if only they do the right thing.

Freedom of expression is a must for any democratic country as it provides the means to give voice to the people. Media is a right and responsibility and shouldn’t be controlled by the government. We must become responsible and honest in the use of Media for whatever we say and write that immortalizes you and people will remember it for a long time. Be good person and become a great leader.

PLATO ABOUT THE SELF | By: Lourenzo Manimtim, Hannah Dollente & Jaycee Bartolome

  PLATO SELF   MEMBERS: Manimtim, Lourenzo Gabrielle O.                      Dollente, Hannah Camille A.                     Jaycee Aldrich B. Bartolome                         1.      Do you agree with what (Plato) has concluded about the self? Why ?   LOURENZO: One of the greatest ideas that I like in Plato’s Philosophy is the “World of Forms and Senses”, which argues that Forms, is the perfect ideal world.
