Breaking News: The Philippines does not exist

“In what is being touted as a world first, Kenya’s biggest mobile operator is allowing subscribers to send cash to other phone users by SMS” at least that’s what the Guardian is saying.

The service is a world first? I guess this means that the Philippines doesn’t exist in this world. If it did exist, Globe G-Cashâ„¢ would be touted as the first service to allow this. Heck, if the Philippines did exist, Kenya’s cash remittance service still wouldn’t be the second such service – it would be the third, behind Smart Padala, also from the Philippines.

Our problem is that we don’t exist. Our country doesn’t exist, and consequently, Globe G-Cashâ„¢ and Smart Padala don’t exist. Therefore, Kenya’s M-Pesa service really is the first of its kind.

If we don’t exist – no matter how much we complain, we won’t be heard, right? If that’s the case, I guess none of you are reading this either. Oh well…

Luis Cruz

Known to some as the driver ng bayan*, the drive by shooter goes by many other names. His full name (minus his middle name), is Luis Bernardo Cruz. Most people call him either Elber or Luis - some even switch back and forth between the two. He also responds to Elb, Elbs, Burr, Burrito, Cruz, and other similar variations on his name. He drives around to relax and shoots photos to pay for his gas. He eats enough for two - maybe even three. He also has the tendency to ramble on and on about anything and everything without stating anything significant. * loosely translated as everybody’s driver; literally translated as the national driver or the town driver
