Angelo Reyes is really showing what he is made of: an incompetent and arrogant public official who thinks that he is the indestructible Reyes just because he betrayed his former boss and installed the “cutest†president this country ever had. Not the cutest part of Philippine history at all.
Today, power shortages and crisis in the Philippines do not only drive us nuts but also make us all fear the worst when Philippine Election Day comes; when some parts of Mindanao may easily become the lair of witches and magicians during the canvassing of votes.
Feeling the heat? Pissed off with the sudden power cut off while you are doing a very important matter in front of your computer? Or watching the climax of a movie scene then all of a sudden the screen left you with a blank stare? Or printing a very important document and all of a sudden the machine came to halt? Or how about withdrawing money from an ATM and the machine suddenly stops while trying to push out the money?
Who is to blame?
Well, for the arrogant Angie Reyes, there is no one but to blame but God. Huwaaat?! Yes, you heard it right.
“You want to blame somebody, blame God.â€
You heard i.? That is one of the scapegoats of some capitalists who want to run from their responsibilities and obligations to their customers: Acts of God. WTF?!
Now I remember the devil that tempted Job who always tells him to blame God for all his miseries.
While he was there all these years as the top energy honcho, he did nothing but lobby for giant energy and some petroleum companies and follow the character of her boss, “pa-cuteâ€.
He had made a forecast about this energy crisis already years back ala-Madam Auring, but has he done anything? We all know the obvious the answer to this, the brownouts can speak for themselves.
Trying to take back his statement on blaming God for this power crisis, he said:
“If you’re looking for somebody to blame then you can blame me. No problem. I can take it. As a matter of fact I might even enjoy it. Bring it on. Make my day.”
At least he still has that little impulse of sensitivity?
Hey, Angie, God has heard you already blaming him, and He is surely is pissed off for being blamed for all your incompetence and hard-headedness.
What do you think of Sec. Reyes of the Department of Energy saying we should blame God for this energy crisis we are all experiencing? Share your comments, God is listening.

I suppose he is not a religious man Elmot – what I think he meant to say is that we should not be too quick to always blame everything on the government. :p

Could be bro, that we cannot always blame the government for all issue; but for this one I guess, they should also be held responsible for the crisis. They are there to work out and have the foresight for situations like this I suppose…I think they in the government should at some point also realize that blaming them is far different from making them accountable.
Hay, basta tag-init talaga mabilis din umanit ulo ng tao ehehhe! May halo-halo ba dyan? ehehhehe!

I think he made a very thoughtless statement and as a leader he should be able to relate the matter to Filipinos in a professional manner and not leave people wondering on a mere “blame God” thingee. The weather in the country has always been like this and a smarter approach to avoid the brown outs should have been considered. Sec. Reyes has always been an arrogant piece of crap and stuff like this from him isn’t new.
That was indeed thoughtless, very irresponsible of a public official was given the power and responsibility to take measures on preventing these kinds of crisis or should have the foresight to have prepared for this situation.
Thanks for the comment Ymoj!
Really appreciate it.

First time to comment here… Anyway, I think all I can say is I’m in doubt whether he is out of his mind or not.

That is a very mean thing for him to say. Even assuming that not every problem could be blamed to the DOE, it still is not right to blame God instead.
But while it is a mean thing for him to say, I do believe that he does not mean it that way. I think what he was trying to say is that this crisis is caused by events beyond the control of man. He just happened to use the word God instead.
If there is someone who should be blamed for this, it’s man–not God. Man destroys environment, global warming results, dams dry up, no power. I know that that’s probably an over-simplistic way of looking at it but, you get the drift.
I think he indeed not mean it to be that way, but is somewhat like a sense of desperation about the situation. But what I am pissed off about this, is that two years ago, he had already said that there will be an energy crisis that the nation is going to experience and the problem in electricity will continue to persist every year if the government does nothing about it…and indeed, they did not do anything about it all…and now blame God thingy came about.
Hay…nakakainit ng ulo, mainit na nga ang panahon eh ehehhehe!

Blame God? Sino ba ang iniluklok natin sa gobyerno? To the best of my knowledge, I did not vote for God in the last election.
Hahaha. True! Good one, good one. lol
Hahhaha! Actually this guy is not an elected official, he is one of the most beloved general of GMA and got appointed to so many cabinet posts though up to this day has never been confirmed by the Commission on Appointments for members of this group are pissed off with his incompetence and arrogance especially during public hearings on petroleum and power concerns.
Un nga, blame God and himig ng mga hinayupak na to eh ano pa ang silbi nila sa gobyerno…
O, cool ka lang ha, baka mahighblood at baliktad na naman damit mo, LOL!
Cool

I think it is “very ridiculous”…if they can even blame God for their incompetence, we should never wonder anymore why is our country being raped by all these crocs.

Even if Sec. Angie is joking, it is improper to say those words. Hindi man lang ba siya kinilabutan? Nakakatakot siya. Sobra!
Hay, naku wala sa bokabolaryo ata nila ang matakot more so mahiya sa mga pinagsasabi nila noh….
Parang mga tuko at linta ang mga yan sa gobyerno eh, kita mo pati Diyos ay banggitin pa ba naman dahil sa kakulangan nya. Susmaryosep!

This shows that the government is incompetent and would always wash their hands for the fault they had caused. I hope this immature and irresponsible Reyes will be put in a situation wherein he would realize that it was “HIS OWN FAULT AND INCOMPETENCE” why our country is falling apart.
Thanks Boy for joining in the discussion.
Unfortunately, incompetence in the government, more so silence in the midst of corruption and cheating has been rewarded real well in this present administration. But since Reyes had already mentioned God, he just have to face everything with God and God will have the last say to everything.

Clearly, he does not have faith. He only knows his power and nothing else . I look at him as plainly miserable old man who just trusts his wealth and power to sustain his life. Other than that, he crumbles.
Even if he did take back his words, he did not apologize and that is because he still probably blame something else other than himself.
A lot of us Filipinos are like that, we do not assume our full responsibility of our actions. We blame everything but ourselves—we even blame God. We think our failures and troubles in life are all God’s doing when most of them are caused by our own carelessness, selfishness, greed and ignorance.
Hi Ate Bingkee! Thanks for the visit.
Though he tried to say that the blame God thingy was done in jest, indeed he never asked for any apology for it. It only speaks then of his character as a public servant who is so full of himself.
How are yo doing?

Angelo Reyes really is to blame for his incompetence on the looming power crisis way before it happened.
It makes the left-side of my brain think this is all part of their plot for upcoming elections.

And seemingly with all other things that are happening, like delay in printing of ballots and delivery of machines and their admission of a rotational brownouts during elections in Mindanao, cheating if already something to expect.
Thanks for the comment Archon.
Maybe the problem is he is a career politician who has risen above what most people deal with. Do the daily blackouts effect him as they effect most people?
Is he able to afford a generator? Maybe blackouts don’t impact him or his family the same as they do the average person.
Rich people have little understanding of what the average person considers important. He may say he understands when a camera’s is on him but the reality is daily blackouts probably don’t bother him or impact his life much.
