Learn the A-Z to stop cyberbullying; go to www.makeitsafe.ph

A is for apple?  Think again.  In cyber lingo, as these parents have experienced, the alphabet takes a whole new meaning, but not necessarily all good.

These cyber expressions could range from AMP, a shorter version of a Filipino cuss word, to other derogatory terms.

Or you might have heard someone say “Go KYS” or “Reincarnate.”  These are simple but disturbing terms with the harmful intention of telling a person to “kill yourself.”

And sometimes, cyberbullying does not even use letters or words.  Instead, people resort to emojis such as a pig face or snout to shame a person for being fat, or a clown to denote stupidity.

Gloc-9 Has A New Propelling Single “Di Umiinom” Featuring Hero

Five down, three more to go! Our Paboritong Makata moves along his lyrical journey with what will be his Pilak album, a musical celebration to mark his 25 illustrious years in the Philippine music industry.

Before the month of August ends, Gloc-9 unveils "Di Umiinom", the 5th single for this upcoming anniversary album and this time around, he shares limelight with Hero, another young buck in the Asintada Management's stable of talents.

Sometimes when someone gets badly hurt and reaches their breaking point, they tend to perform deeds that they don’t usually do, or haven’t done before.

Toyota Starts Demonstration Project of Data-Measuring Vehicle Advertising Business for Company Vehicles in the Philippines

On the 17th day of May, 2022, Toyota Mobility Solutions Philippines Corporation (TMSPH) launched a demonstration project of a mobility service to optimize advertising revenues by specifically measuring the effectiveness of wrap advertisement of fleet vehicles based on vehicle location information using the GPS data sent from mobile APP.

This demonstration project will be led by TMSPH, with the cooperation of Flare Inc. (Flare), a company that develops and operates mobility-related businesses such as wrap advertising, Toyota Financial Services Philippines Corporation (TFSPH), Toyota’s automobile sales finance company, and Toyota Daihatsu Engineering & Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TDEM), Toyota’s regional office in Asia. The project will be promoted using ten fleet vehicles throughout Metro Manila, Laguna, and other bordering cities for six months. During the demonstration, TMSPH will serve as an advertiser by promoting TFSPH’s KINTO One full-service lease product.

Unlike outdoor advertising in fixed locations, such as billboards, the demonstration project enables us to collect a broad range of data and knowledge relating to advertising effectiveness by using cars that move in wide areas for advertising. We can also measure advertising effectiveness more accurately by using and checking GPS-based vehicle position information sent from drivers' smartphones and real-time traffic data collected at each location, instead of using data obtained from a periodic traffic census.

“About a year and half ago I wrote a song about an incredible story, the story of a girl who always lived on the outside, looking in. Figuratively and literally,” said Taylor Swift. “The juxtaposition of her loneliness and independence. Her longing and her stillness. Her curiosity and fear, all tangled up. Her persisting gentleness… and the world’s betrayal of it.”
