1. Padre Damaso- a spanish friar, he used his power as a priest.  He is talkative priest. cruel in nature. He is antagonist to Chrisostomo Ibarra nd meddled about his relationship with Maria Clara. In today's society, priest or friars should  teach only about God and not meddle in politics or other government issue.

I consider Edu Gariguez  just like Padre Damaso He is a friar but meddled in Maria Ressa, Rappler's editor in chief cyber libel case. He condemned the Regional Trial Court for convicting Maria Ressa. 

2. Don Timoteo  -  He is a rich and well known businessman. He has business venture with Simeon. But although he is rich he would trick people. He bribed authorities for his benefits. There are many businessman  and people today who are also greed doing whatever it takes just to take advantage of people. 

I consider Celso Delos Angeles Jr as Don Timoteo a fraud and prankster man.  Celso is a rich man owner of  Housing Finance But he is convicted to estafa by DOJ because he drained investors and bank funds of 5. 37 billion pesos. 

3. Kapitan Tiyago-  a rich Filipino and elite member of rich society at that time. He owns some  properties in Manila.He is a rich parent who wants to make sure that his daughter Maria Clara would marry a rich man also. Elite Filipino of today also would be the same as him who want their children to be successful and marry a  rich person someday.

I consider Manny Villar a wealthy billionaire in the Philippines as Kapitan Tiyago. He was in politics before. Just like Kapitan Tiyago he would want his children to be successful just like him. Mark Villar became a senator too as well as Camille Villar who is also in politics. His other son Manuel Jr. managed their other businesses.

4. Doña Victorina-  is a socialite and friend of kapitan Tiyago and wife of Don Tiburcio they care about their social status. They associate themselves with other elite to gain more influencial image a very typical image of today filipino elite.

I consider Heart Evangelista as Doña Victorina of today. She is socialite woman. She is popular today not only in the Philippines but is making a name in other countries as well, she is becoming a  fashion icon. She is married to an influential man that makes her image to become more popular.

5. Crisostomo Ibarra- son of wealthy ancestor. He studied in Europe and a very well educated man. He hated oppression. He liked to improved the country and believed that education will help in reforming the youth minds. 

I consider Sandro Marcos the son of President Elect Bong Bong Marcos and grandchild of former Ferdinand Marcos just like Chrisostomo Ibarra both came from wealthy and influential ancestors. He also studied abroad like Ibarra. He is well educated and very influential but remains humble and down to earth. Now that he is young member of the house of representative I believed he has plans in improving the youth's mind just like Ibarra.

ADVICE TO ALL EMPLOYEES:

  ADVICE TO ALL EMPLOYEES: 1. Build a home earlier. Be it rural home or urban home. Building a house at 50 is not an achievement. Don't get used to government houses. This comfort is so dangerous. Let all your family have good time in your house. 2. Go home. Don't stick at work all the year. You are not the pillar of your department. If you drop dead today, you will be replaced immediately and operations will continue. Make your family a priority. 3. Don't chase promotions. Master your skills and be excellent at what you do. If they want to promote you, that's fine if they don't, stay positive to your personal development. 4. Avoid office or work gossip. Avoid things that tarnish your name or reputation.

How do I care for my toddler's teeth?

Her first tooth was one of my baby's milestones that I had expected. For me, a baby's teething is a little frightening because the elderly told me, "The baby's teething." when they first come out , baby could feel cranky or irritable. And comforting and soothing the baby can sometimes be challenging. How soon did my child's first tooth erupt? Around the age of five months, my baby's first tooth appeared in the middle. There were two lower front teeth on her. Not all  babies follow the tooth eruption chart and the timeline for tooth development, according to her pediatrician. One tooth at a time may come in some babies.  Some parents' babies' first tooth may appear as early as three months old or as late as 14 months. What are the signs my baby might be teething? Contrary to some myths or common belief, my child did not have  any typical teething symptoms, such as fever, runny nose, or diarrhea. None of these symptoms are supported by research. Ever...
