In a move probably to appease the business sector, the government's main source of funds especially when it comes to elections, Executive Order 839 has now been in the process of being lifted. We can view the entire article here. Do take note of the statement by yet another official of the government:
"If anyone would be profiteering or would be taking advantage, I will not hesitate to recommend the reimposition of price control because the state of calamity will stay,” said FavilaOoohhhh....this is dangerous.
Just how then will one be able to gauge a level of profiteering from a pure retail price with the intent simply recovering the losses incurred due to the EO?
It is but to normal that we as businessmen study supply and demand. It is simple fact that we do business to gain, not to make donations. When supply is down and demand is high, price is up.
With the issuance of the executive order, the state probably juuuusst helped a sector, but not enirely. of course, it is the mindless "mass" of voters who puts the government officials to their sits. The government basically steals from the business sector upfront. This action is totally disturbing.
When disasters hit other parts of the Philippines, Malacañang never gives to much consideration - mindanao for instance, where the plains had been flooded due to poor infrastracture, visayas - another typhoon target on both sides. When Ondoy and the other typhoons came, I don't see it to be unusual.
That set of disaster is simply the of Luzon for the disasters it never had in the past, nothing more and nothing less. It is highly unnecessary for the government to be over-reacting to the point of dictating the business sector as to how things are to be sold.
This charade is nothing new, we all know that the polls are coming. The ultimate goal is not to help the people, but to use the emotions of those affected to propel their future political ambitions.
