Pink Bag
In our continuous stories from tabloids, here's one about the thief who was caught in Batasan Hills at about 1 in the morning because he was wearing a pink shoulder bag. The barangay tanods (village guards) noticed Alberto Mias walking with a pink shoulder bag and he was not even in drag. He was detained later on complaint by Stephanie of San Mateo, Rizal. According to Stephanie, they were passengers in a tricycle (note to nonlumpen partisanos: In the Philippines, tricycle fares rise exponentially in the wee hours and most passengers would rather wait for others to fill up the trike) when Mias signalled the driver to stop at the IBP Road. Instead of paying, Mias grabbed the pink bag and ran away.

Hey, Frank. This entry very amusing, but I thought your PDI article on Benguet pesticides more interesting!
"From 1987 to 1989, major pesticide companies in the Philippines put in the market 20,100 tons of pesticides, the reports said."
....plus, fake chicken dung? Now, that is totally hilarious. Not packaged in pink bags?????
You are right. I think there is an agricultural protocol that those items with pesiticides should be labeled pink. I knew this because I read in Readers Digest years and years ago about an incident in Iran where the people pink rice not knowing that these were seeds laced with pesticides. It was a tragedy talaga.
Also think about it. Why would you fake chicken shit?
