2 New Medicines for Type 2 Diabetes

I will be monitoring the Food and Drug Administration of the Philippines (Filipino: Pangasiwaan ng Pagkain at Gamot, or FDA, formerly the Bureau of Food and Drugs Administration or BFAD) if these two medicines will be approved and when will these medicines be available in the Philippines. I really hate the thought of injection so hopefully, there would really be an effective, oral meds, for Type 2 Diabetes.

A Memorial for Mark Vincent Garalde

A few days ago, a viral CCT footage of a cyclist being murdered in P. Casal Street in Quiapo, Manila became headline. It was a very tragic crime.

Today, I saw this post on Facebook and I want to repost the entire this. I hope we could help in this project:

Mark Vincent Geralde

(edit: His surname is GARALDE, not Geralde. Apologies for the spelling mistake in the photo.)

My name is NJ Mijares. I am a cyclist. I bike to work everyday. I am saddened and angry about the senseless murder of Mark Vincent Garalde. A fellow cyclist. I don't know him, but nevertheless, i am affected. He doesn't deserve that. No one deserves that. But, cyclists are the friendliest people on the road i know. We are a peaceful bunch. So instead of spreading hate and adding to the negativity, i would like to propose a peaceful action.

A Memorial for Mark.

In the scene of his death, i will permanently install a white painted bicycle to serve as a monument in memory of this tragedy.

This practice is already being done in other major cities around the world. Monuments of white bicycles permanently installed near the scene of a bicyclist's death.
How ever sad this may be, i thought this is the perfect time to start this practice here in Manila. Bicyclists are killed, whether by accident or not. And sadly, they are eventually forgotten after few days or weeks on the news. By installing memorials, we will remember. People will remember. And maybe, just maybe, every one will be reminded to be safe, be respectful, and be a little bit friendlier on our roads.
