PULIS OYSTER!!!
FLASH REPORT!!!
The newest incarnations of the formerly red-yellow garbed
Metro Aides have arrived.
Over the past two weeks,
these new uniforms,
deep ocean blue with coral pink letters,
have been seen in the hundreds,
all over MetroManila.
The words "PULIS" and "OYSTER"
are so incongruous
that I spent sleepless nights
pondering the meaning of it all.
Was it code for "TALABA COPS"???
What in Neptune's name??!?!!?!
Finally,
I couldn't stand it anymore
and just had to ask the kind lady below
what the words on their uniforms meant....
OYSTER,
an acronym for:
"OUT-OF-SCHOOL YOUTHS STRIVING TOWARDS ECONOMIC RECOVERY"
I kid you not.
GMA's bright boys have done it again!!!

Basta mga alipores ni gma, maraming gimik tuwing eleksiyon. Darami pa yang oysters habang papalapit ang eleksiyon. Part of the promised 10 million jobs. Saan na naman kayang pondo ng bayan ang gagamitin dyan? Iimbestigahan na naman at tatakbo sa ibayong dagat ang operator like jocjoc. A, baka from the Bureau of Fisheries. A new project nga naman for the propagation of talaba along the kalsada.
So THAT's what it means! Now I can tell my wife.
Surfed in from Wifely Steps.
Hi Spanky. I don't know if you remember me, but we've met a long time ago.
Actually, OYSTER means Out-of-School Youth Serving Toward Economic Recovery.
Check out the official press release here:

i only recall meeting two Elberts in my life,
i'm still working with the other one,
so you must be Elbert from Mars,
the good ol' days??
yup, that's me, the MARS guy.
BTW, I realized that the "Y" in oyster hardly applies to the woman in your picture. I still don't see the point of the whole thing. It's just plain ridiculous. I guess Bulaong wants to be credited for all of this, hence the Pulis monicker.
mr. cuenca!
oh yeah, that letter "Y"...
sweet irony of life!
i guess they couldn't call it ROOSTER: Retired Out-of-school Oldies Serving Towards Economic Recovery
how's married life? i read about
you and your wife in the papers quite a bit.
i did see Mona in greenbelt a few months ago,
but she looked angry, so I didn't say hi. hahahaha!
PULIS ROOSTER: Retired Out-of-school Oldies Serving Towards Economic Recovery ... BRILLIANT!!!
