G. Rafael Pulmano,

Isang maaliwalas na pagbati po sa inyo.

                    Naisipang e-liham

Dangan nga lamang at ngayun ko lang nasilayan
inyong pag-aaring website na nag-uumapaw sa laman
hindi ko napigilan ang aking sariling magtampisaw
sa batis ng karunungan aking di sadyang natanaw

bagama't sabi nga ng isang lumang idioma
ukol sa mga gawa ng mga may akdang aking nabasa
ang inyong lingkod ay bubuwit kung ikukumpara
sa mga kawayang sa aking pagkakita'y dagliang tiningala na

ako po'y pakumbabang nag-aantay ng basbas
na sa inyong ginawang pugad ako'y makiangkas
upang mga tilamsik ng aking diwa'y mailabas
sa isang komunidad na puno ng loroko at pantas

muli po ang aking taos-pusong pagpupugay
lalo na sa mga katulad nyong nagwawagayway
mga likhang sa sariling wika hinabi at pinanday
pagyabong ng website, dalangin kong walang humpay

ako po si Christian Robles mas kilala po bilang zack, 32, may asawa at 2 anak, ofw sa bansang timog korea. hilig ko po ang magsulat ng tula subalit siguro po ngayo'y kinakalawang na, matagal tagal na din akong di nagsusulat subalit ako po ay totoong natuwa at nakita ko ang inyong personal website nanumbalik sa akin ang kagustuhang muling magsulat, bagama't bago ako tumigil, karamihan sa aking akda ay nasa banyagang lengwahe ko na mga nagawa, mas nais ko pa ding pag-igihin ang aking hilig sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng ating sariling wika.

kalakip po nito ay dalawa sa aking mga dati ng nalikhang tula sana po ay mabigyang puwang ninyo sa inyong site.

muli po, maraming maraming salamat.

P.S. / pasensya na po yung sulat ko sa taas, naisipan kong patula pa din hehehe

SITE RATING	COMMENT
EXCELLENT	Ang web site ni Mr. Pulmano ay nakakaaliw basahin lalo na sa mga mambabasa na ibig balikan ang kanilang pinagmulan. Kasabihan na ang di marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay may stiff neck at di makararating sa paroroonan. Ang tunay na Pilipino ay very flexible and could easily adjust to his environment, knows how to mamaluktot and tighten his belt. Filipinos always joke around, always look at the bright side even when things go wrong. We need this website to set our foot back on the ground, we do not want to forget that there is always a Filipino in us. Mr. Pulmano, you need to inspire the baby boomers coz the generation X or Y are getting hard on us. Take care and more power to all the readers. Let us all pray for the continued support of the Overseas workers to their families and for the families to appreciate the hard work behind those hard earned euros and dollars that they are receiving. We have to remember that the financial support we are receiving is not meant to divide. – Teresita Nermal Pasalo / California, U.S.A. / Dec 12, 2008
EXCELLENT	Paeng, I have a vivid memory of the times while we were growing up still and Dela Paz Elementary School was "home" for our immature minds. Look at you now, :) if this is not the pinnacle of your success, then this is just a peek into what can be achieved by your reach. Quite impressive!!! Keep it up. – Jun Cabilan / Washington, U.S.A. / Nov 24, 2008

Para na ring kilala kita nang personal, Paeng, dahil nabasa ko ang talambuhay mo sa iyong website. Narinig ko na ang mga awitin mo, at napakinggan ko ang sample ng palatuntunang-pangradyong Doon Po Sa Amin na pinagpunong-abalahan ninyo ni Toppe Alba. Ang format ng programang-pangkultura ay kahanga-hanga. Narinig ko ang tinig mo sa pagsasalita at sa pagtula – may pagkaboses-makata ka nga, at may kakayahan ding mag-announcer. Ang mga kundiman ay nakaaantig ng damdamin, lalo na ang duwetong Maalaala mo Kaya. Hindi pahuhuli ang Balagtasan ninyo sa balagtasan noong una nina Antonio Raymundo at Ofelia Angeles. At hindi basta-basta ang lantay na gintong-aral na sinabi mo sa pagwawakas ng programa. Saludo ako sa iyo, at binabati kita, gayundin ang lahat nang nagsiganap sa palatuntunang-panradyo!

Halos tapos ko nang lahat na basahin at pakinggan ang nakapaloob sa iyong web site. Sa pitak ng "Komento at Puna" maaari bang isama mo ang isinatula kong komento. Isang soneto ito para sa iyo. Maraming salamat.

SONETO KAY PAENG

Rosas ang tula mong may samyo’t may ganda,
Anag-ag ng gabi’t umagang kay sigla;
Filipinong-dilang ipinagbabadya,
Anghang kung sa siling-labuyong mapula;
Eden ang web site mong tangi’t naiiba,
Lunday sa habagat ng bagyong nagsanga!

Aklat ka’t panitik ng paham na Ama...

Pugad kang sinampa ng abuhing manok,
Upang may labuyo na mangurukutok;
Lambing ng tinig mong pumapaimbulog,
May kapangyarihang yumanig ng bundok;
Aliw-iw ng iyong awit na may lamyos,
Nota ng makatang hihimu-himutok!
OFW kang hinirang ng Diyos...

EXCELLENT	Yong Inay... Itay..., may kirot na naiiwan lalo na't matutuunan ng pansin ang larawan ng walang malay na paslit, na waring naghihintay sa pag-uwi ng mga magulang. Ilang mga anak kaya ang lagi nang nangangarap na makita ang mga magulang na matagal nang nawalay sa kanilang mga paningin? Kung naging mayaman lang ang pinas, maraming mga paslit ang magiging maligaya sa piling ng kanilang mahal sa buhay. Kaso, di na umangat ang kabang-yaman ng bansa. Kung walang mga OFWs na nagpapadala ng dolyar, lalo na sigurong masama ang ekonomya ang ating bansa.Kaya tama ngang tawagin silang mga Bagong Bayani. - Camilo Batitis / City of Santa Rosa, Laguna, Philippines / Aug 22, 2007

English, math at science utak mapurol Ano ang sanhi at bakit walang pagbabagong pinaiiral Pati ang DepEd bumababa din ang moral Saan ba mahusay ang ating mga bata? Sa Filipino? mag survey at ipapakita Tanungin kung bakit sa subject silay mahina Naunawaan ba ang klase ng pag tuturo ni propesora?

GOOD	So What, if the woman i truely love is a japayuki. There is nothing wrong with it. the philippine economy is always suffering from economic downfall. they are one of those who are helping to cover the deficit of the philippines. just like any other filipino overseas workers they are the true and real heroes. they must be commended for what they had, have and have to be done to save Philippine economy. Some politicians are using them but they (Politicians) are crooked.i am very proud to meet the woman that i truely love even though she is there in japan. the only thing we both hold is trust. May God Bless them. – Royse Daijen / Davao City, Philippines / Feb 16, 2005

EXCELLENT	Being a former OFW myself, I find your poems and stories very realistic! Have you, by any chance been an OFW yourself?

Nevertheless, Congratulations fr a job very well done. Keep up the good work! This site is really a big help to all our brothers and sisters abroad. GOD bless all of you! – Roel D. San Juan / Laguna, Philippines / Feb 3, 2003
EXCELLENT	Like everyone who saw this site..I have the same comment..very excellent and the best site among pinoy site I ever visited. Big KUDO's to Mr. Rafael Pulmano for being frank and factual about his presentation on the plight of the Pinoy OCW's all over the world. I fully agree for I have seen it too during my tour in Europe.. teachers, nurses, accountants, engineers.. being cook, yaya's, garderner, drivers, and worst of all TNT'S.. being abussed emotionally and physically.. worst of all tortured or becoming sex slaves. Its so pathetic to say that when you really looked at the overall root of the Philipine problem as a whole and the long lasting effect to its overall average poor citizentry..you come to realized that its the Philippine political establishement that is ridden of GRAFT AND CORRUPTION, a cancer like desease that will be too hard to destroy... TALAMAK NA!.. It's the only reason that is killing the Filipino dream. A good government promotes economic health for foreign investment and incentives, promotes jobs and economic welfare to its citizentry and thereby doesn't necessitates professional brain drain to this very productive nation of professional and educated Filipinos. Due to this CANCER OF GRAFT AND CORRUPTION..LAGAY DITO, LAGAY DOON.. IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW BUT WHO YOU KNOW, not to mention CRIMES AND KIDNAPPING.. main reason that shuns foreign investment. Years will come and go no matter what.. if this kind of government will not change..Filipino plight of suffering as YAYA'S, ATSOY, JAPYUKI'S and other trademarks of pinoy's wherever they are will stay the same..from one generation to another. Factually, am still pinoy.. but deep inside..Im not proud to be.. why? I went home in 1996.. NINAKAWAN AKO NG MGA *&%$#@!!! PARAK SA MALAPIT SA AIRPORT!! – Jessie Bucsit / Texas, U.S.A. / Jan 30, 2003

NOT RATED	Ang iyong tula ay tunay na paglalarawan ng kasalukuyang sitwasyon ng Pinoy OFW. Nakalulungkot isipin na sa kabila ng pagiging "Bagong Bayani" ito naman ay isang salamin ng patuloy na pagbaba ng kalidad ng ating kabuhayan at moralidad. Sa iyong tula nagtatanong MAY TUNAY AT MAKABULUHAN BA ANG PAGIGING BAYANI NG ATING KABABAYANG PILIPINO– (No Name) / U.SA. / Nov 12, 2002
EXCELLENT	ang galing mo pare,nakakatuwa ka naman sana gumawa ka pa ng maraming tula para sa mga pilipinong nasa abroad.– Regie Bilaro / Nevada, U.S.A. / Nov 9, 2002
EXCELLENT	Hindi ko akalain na makalipas ang halos 24 na taon, makakabasa kong muli ng iyong mga likha. Taong 1978 nang magkasama tayo sa Baguio, kabilang ang ilan pang mag-aaral sa iba't ibang paaralan sa Binan, para sa isang pambansang pagtitipon na pinamahalaan ng Knights of Rizal. Tatlo kaming kinatawan ng Lake Shore Educational Institution. At kung iyong maaalala, isa-isa mo kaming binigyan ng isinulat mong "nobelang patula". Bagama't hindi ko na matandaan ang pamagat, naiisip ko pa kung gaano katawa tawa ang mga bahagi ng nobela. Isa pa, may mga iginuhit ka para sa aming taunang aklat na "Beam". Salamat sa patuloy mong pagbibigay-buhay sa sining ng pagsulat sa wikang Pilipino. Salamat din sa aking mga guro sa Pilipino, Liwayway Yatco-Vergel De Dios at Ester Baldonado. – Willie Tanabe / Australia / Oct 19, 2002

EXCELLENT	Bagong bayani ang tawag sa atin ng gobyerno. Tayong naghahanapbuhay o naghanapbuhay sa ibang bansa. Nag-aalaga ng mga dayuhang bata at matanda habang ang sariling anak at magulang ay di tiyak kung sinong nag-aalaga. Nagtuturo tayo sa dayong mga bata habang ang mga Pilipinong mag-aaral ay kulang ang mga guro. Bagong bayani tayo bilang mga doktor, enhinyero, scientist at kung anu-anong propesyong nakatutulong at nagpapaunlad sa ibang bansa. Tuwa na ang gobyerno sa mumong kita nating dolyar at tinatawag na tayong bagong bayani! May niisang saglit ba tayong naramdamang kabayanihan sa pansamantalang paglisan sa lupang sinilangan para manilbihang tila alipin sa ibang bayan? Kapag dayuhan ang pinaglilingkuran bagong bayani? Nanaisin ko pang tularan ang mga lumang bayani pagkat sila'y nag-alay ng buhay para sa kalayaan at ng tayo,y magkaroon ng kasaganaan sa sariling bayang ating maipagmamalaki. Mataas pa ang pananalig ko sa Pilipino! Maragul pa ing tiwala ko karing Pilipino! Dako pa ang akong pagsalig sa katawhang Pilipino! Dakula pa ang sakuyang pagtubod sa Pilipino! Dakkel pay ti panagtalek ko iti Pilipino. I still have great faith in the Filipino! Long live the Filipino people!– Bayani "Bani" Cambronero / Batangas, Philippines / Aug 16, 2002

EXCELLENT	Maraming website na patungkol sa mga OFWs ang aking nabisita. Noong una, naging contributor ako sa Anak website ng ABS-CBN. Subali't sa di ko malamang dahilan, ito ay biglang nagsara. Patuloy ang aking paghahanap hanggang matagpuan ko nga itong gawa ni G. Pulmano sa tulong ng yahoo search engine. Namangha ako sa nilalaman ng kanyang mga katha higit yaong may halong parody na, bukod sa propesyonal na pagkakasulat, ang mga ito ay tigib ng aral. Nais ko sanang makisali. Nais kong makisali hindi upang makita ko ang aking katha sa website na ito kundi upang maipahatid ko ang sigaw ng nakararami, higit yaong mga hindi pinalad na makatagpo ng magandang kapalaran sa ibayong dagat. Sana, sa lalong madaling panahon, matupad ang pangarap kong makisali sa'yong website, Ginoong Pulmano. Mabuhay ka!– Edu Carpena / Jeddah, Saudi Arabia / Jul 28, 2002

EXCELLENT	K. Ralph, Even if I didn't get to surf your web, I know all along that you are a brilliant person. But since, you're always making "kulit" about your page, I eventually went. I particularly enjoyed the music. And I was touched by "Sayang". It's true that a lot of Filipino families are sacrificing their chance to be together just to have a so called "better life". I will be sending my family in the states a copy of "Sayang" so that they will see how lucky they are to be with their family. Pero, they just don't know dahil they are to busy to realize it...sayang. As my mentor, and tormentor, I'm proud to say that I know this person who touches lives through this web. Kilala ko'yan! More power. – Vicky Forster / Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands / Mar 24, 2002

EXCELLENT	Ang galing ng tula mo. Kailan kaya matitigil and sakripisyo ng Pilipino?

GOOD	Hi Sir!!! Kamusta na? Sana kilala niyo pa rin ako, miyembro ng TELON, na inyo na lamang iniwan (joke lang). Di ko na po kayo ma-reach. Kung inyo pong natatandaan isa po ako sa 1st batch ng grupo. Graduate na po ako sa Saint Michael's College of Laguna (Associate in Computer Technology) balang ko po sanang sa SMCL na lang tapusin ang pag-aaral ko bilang Bachelor, ang problema naman po ay kailangan kong mag-trabaho para makapagpatuloy ng pag-aaral. Nasa Amkor/Anam Philippines P3 sa Biñan (Laguna Technopark) Bilang Technical Associate. Naging malayo para sa akin ang SMCL sa tinitirhan ko at ang naging schedule ko pa sa trabaho ay umaga, at kailangan kong kumuha ng oras na hindi conflict sa time ng trabaho ko. Kaya po napilitan po ako na lumipat Perpetual (CALAMBA), naiwan ko po tuloy ang napamahal na sa aking ang TELON. Bago po mag-graduation, nagpresents po kami ng STAGE PLAY na pinamagatang "HULING GABI SA MARAGONDON", gumanap po ako bilang Orang. Naging maganda naman po ang naging resulta. Kahit po nahirapan kami paanong bubuuin ang play. Kasama ko po sina Vilma Gajo, bilang asawa ni Emilio A., ang presidente po ngayon ng TELON na si Rodolfo, bilang Emilio. Dito po sa pinapasukan ko po ngayong school, eh wala man lang katulad ng ganito, nais ko nga po sanang magtayo ng katulad din po nito, kaya lang di ko po alam kung paano ko uumpisahan. Bago lang po kasi itong Perpetual sa Calamba. Sir, paano po, hanggang dito na lamang. Lagi ko na lamang bibisitahin ang homepage niyo, talagang bilib na bilib po ako sa angkin niyong talino pagdating sa larangan ng PAGTULA. Hindi po katulad ng ibang tula na nakakaantok. ANG GALING NIYO SIR!!!! -ERLYN – Erlyn Samudio / Laguna, Philippines / Jan 7, 2000

GOOD	Could I submit some articles about the filipino community and OCW in Israel? – Roland Ustares / Tel-Aviv, Israel / Nov 29, 1999
EXCELLENT	Kana ako, so sorry talaga--pangit ang Filipino ko. Maraming salamat sa mga poems mo. Noon nagtrabaho ako sa Upper Bicutan (Tagig, M-M), nakilala kong maraming tao na nag-abroad o kaya may pamilya na nasa abroad. Mula noon, iniisip ko tungkol sa problema na'to. Nabasa ko ang sinulat ni Kimberly sa guestbook, na gusto niya ang bersyon ng poems mo so Ingles. Ano ang masasabi mo tunkol diyan? – Andrea / Michigan, U.S.A. / Nov 6, 1999
NOT RATED	Hi! Kailangan ko po ng mga tula gawa ng mga pinoy na translated sa Ingles. Puwede niyo po ba itranslate ang mga tula ninyo at ipadala sa dkuy@iname.com? Salamat po! – Kimberly / Makati, Philippines / Oct 30, 1999
EXCELLENT	honestly speaking it was a very touching poem about all our contract workers who are sacrificing not to be with their family only to give them a good life, I have also my little brother who is working in Singapore together with his wife. oh. by the way I am a Filipina but married with a danish national and leaving in Denmark for the last 7 years. thanks – Nett C. Madsen / Denmark / Oct 25, 1999
EXCELLENT	Tungkol po sa "Kaya mo kung iniisip mong kaya mo", magandang ipahayag sa mga nawawalang pag-asa sa buhay. (Kuya Ralph, Pls. bear w/ my tagalog.) Pero, kung katulad po sa situasyon ko na naghahangad na tumangkad ay wala na ho yatang pag-asa. But thank you for the advise!!! – Vicky / Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands / Oct 4, 1999
EXCELLENT	Ralph, Napakaganda at tunay na tunay ang pagkakagawa mo ng iyong web na bagong bayani, akalain mo muntik ko ng ipa-publish ang mga tula mo sa web ng mga taga paete bilang isang kaibigan dito sa saipan na isa sa nagpakilala dito kung paano at naging halimbawa para marespeto ang isang taga laguna dito sa CNMI. Siyempre bago ko gawin yon ay itatanong ko muna sa iyo, kaya lang last time tayong nagkita dito sa Saipan ay hindi ka na bumalik sa akin. Anyway more power to you again .... ang more achievement as a bagong bayani but neglected here dahil kung sino lang ang irekomenda ng Phil Consulate will be remembered but those who keep it silently and don't contribute never been mentioned. Please continue the good works and God will Bless us. Still in Saipan....kabayan. Pastor – Pastor Balquiedra Gagaring / Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands / Sep 6, 1999
