'"Look at their response there in New York," popular radio commentator Joe Taruc wondered aloud in his Friday morning talk show in Manila. "If it happened here, it would be nothing out of the ordinary."

Their countries suck and they don't even know it, they are so ignorant. Nothing happens in these backwater places except for dictators screwing the people all the time. It is irrelevant whether the electricity is on or off since industry is non-existent as is mass transit, appliances, etc.

If I lived in Iraq, the Philipines, Africa, etc., and was sitting there in my mud hut, I couldn't give a damn if the power grid went down.
