2 Year Old Child Ran Over Twice in China

It's all over the news, a video was uploaded in the internet showing a child was ran over by two vehicles and ignored by civilians. The video were taken from their local CCTV. It took a while before a concerned citizen rush the poor child into the hospital but unfortunately, the child was declared brain dead.

When the video was presented to the media, there were a lot of questions, actually a lot of so angry questions were thrown. First, why does the first vehicle didn't stop when obviously, the driver noticed that he might have hit something? Why does the second vehicle didn't manage to stop knowing that there was a bloody child lying on the road? Why does the heartless passerby ignored the kid and seems to be of no care whatsoever? Why does the parents leave their child unattended like that loitering on the road considering that the child is only 2 years old? Finally, does Chinese people have no sense of humane responsibility?

This video is probably the most disturbing ever as far as being humane is concerned. It ignites a public uproar and a lot of people are calling this the immorality of modern society.

The accident happened last Thursday, October 13 around 5:30 in the afternoon. After the vehicle hit the child another one came in and for me, intentionally hit the bleeding child. Both of them fled the scene. There were around 7 minutes passed and not even one care to reach a hand or even call the police or an ambulance. Until one of them voluntarily did something. An older woman, a garbage scavenger carried the 'noodle-like' body of the 2-year old child. The mother happened to be at the vicinity was shocked but they managed to bring the child into the nearest hospital.


According to reports, there were 18 passengers who ignored the bleeding child on the side of the road.

Upon investigation, the police department have apprehended the driver of the second vehicle. They're still searching for the first one as they are having difficulty retrieving the plate number. They are questioning all possible witness as we speak. Police have confirmed firmly that they will surely arrest the first driver.

Unfortunately, as the news have announced it, the 2-year old child Yue Yue, which means little joy have passed away. She was brought to the hospital and declared brain dead but is showing stability at that time. She died early today, Friday October 21, as hospital told reporters that "all-out efforts were ineffective".

According to the reports from China, "Many people in China are hesitant to help people who appear to be in distress for fear that they will be blamed. High-profile lawsuits have ended with good Samaritans ordered to pay hefty fines to individuals they sought to help." Sad but true.

Cheerio!

The Most Expensive Philippine Coin Ever Sold

I personally am fond of collecting old coins. I have an ample collection, and decent if I may add, of Philippine old coins. Though I collect coins for a hobby, some people kept on asking me how I acquire those coins and if I’m selling one. So in some cases, when I visit the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Central Bank of the Philippines), I always try to order an additional from my own to sell or give it as a gift to my friends. I always wonder, what Philippine coin is the most expensive ever sold, and how much. Priced at $22, 000 or Php 1,038,136.00 as of this writing ($1 = Php 47.19), the 1903 San Francisco Mint fifty centavos is perhaps the most expensive United States-Philippines coin ever sold. Only 2 specimens have reported and only one formally auctioned for the price mentioned. Do not mistake this one for the common 1903 Philadelphia Mint fifty centavos. This coin is an absolute rarity. How this coin surfaced? The story behind that incident is still a myste

The Great Badjang or Giant Taro

As we try to come up with things to do to make our days productive this Pandemic, a lot of people are leaning towards Gardening. Here in the Philippines, people are becoming crazy with a certain plant. It has large leaves which resembles an Elephant’s ear. Badjang, as we call it here in the Philippines, scientifically called Alocasia macrorrhizos, is a species of flowering plant in the arum family that it is native to rainforests of Island Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Queensland and has long been cultivated here in the Philippines, many Pacific islands, and elsewhere in the tropics. It is also famous as Giant Taro. The giant taro was originally domesticated in the Philippines, but are known from wild specimens to early Austronesians in Taiwan. From the Philippines, they spread outwards to the rest of Island Southeast Asia and eastward to Oceania where it became one of the staple crops of Pacific Islanders. They are one of the four main species of aroids (taros) cultivated by Austron

Hanamichi Sakuragi: In Real Life

I am not that young, though I am not that old to have watched the Manga Series Slum Dunk. A lot of people is being fascinated with the game of basketball. Almost everyone knows how to play the game. Maybe, just maybe, NBA really popularized the sports. Apparently, one story caught my attention, and surely, it is really worth to tell ;-) Slam Dunk (スラムダンク Suramu Danku?) is a sports-themed manga series written by Takehiko Inoue about a basketball team from Shōhoku High School. It was first serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump in Japan from 1990 to 1996 and had also been adapted into an anime series by Toei Animation which had been broadcast worldwide, enjoying much popularity particularly in Japan, several other Asian countries and Europe. Inoue later used basketball as a central theme in two subsequent manga titles: Buzzer Beater and Real. In 2010, Inoue received special commendations from the Japan Basketball Association for helping popularize basketball in Japan.
