Zài jiàn, my Binondo girl!

The word "zai jian" is Chinese for goodbye. That's why we say "zai jian" to My Binondo Girl, a drama that captures the Chinese-Filipino audiences with its unique storyline. On the finale, Edison Wu (Ricardo Cepeda), the father of Andy Wu (Xian Lim), was apprehended by the police because he was behind this; he hired a killer to kill Jade (Kim Chiu), which later that both Onyx (Jolo Revilla) and Andy were shot by the hired killer while trying to stop the hired killer to kill Jade, and frame up Jean Sy (Cherry Pie Picache). Later on, Jade's father, Chen Sy (Richard Yap), decided to let his now divorced wife, Jean, along with her daughter, Amethyst, go and be changed from now on.

Several moments later after Edison Wu pleaded guilty for all the crimes he committed and while Onyx's parents, Jade, and her grandmother (Gina Pareno) mourning through the death of Onyx, Andy came here and he asked about what just happened. Moments later, it was Jade's birthday. Her family, Andy's mother, and Andy's brother, Trevor (Matteo Gudicelli) were present at that time. It's been quite a time since Jade became the president of Twin Dragons. With Jade left alone, Andy came here and he's marrying Jade, for real.

The story of My Binondo Girl ended happily just in time for the Year of the Dragon. The marriage between Jade and Andy led to better things in life such as Andy's mother, Mencho, ever fabulous in her single but simple life, Onyx's parents; Arturo and Stella, continuing their business with a simple life, Trevor and Amethyst got married, Jean Sy got moved on with her new love of her life, Jade's grandmother, Amor, got started her own business, and finally, Chen Sy and Zenny, Jade's mother (Ai-Ai Delas Alas) got remarried.

Zài jiàn, my Binondo girl!

Communist Cars - The North Korean way

North Korea is somewhat a communist country and it is now under the rule of Kim Jong Un, the son of the late Kim Jong Il. I find that country very boring because there is only one channel on this country and it is somewhat known as the Korean Central Television (KCTV). It's a channel that has no commercial breaks. Here on this communist country in Asia, there was some Communist cars that looked utterly familiar but wearing a different badge. A car company that you may never heard of it but this is somewhat a communist car thing. That was known as Pyeongwha Motors Corporation. Established in 1999, Pyeonghwa Motors Corporation is a manufacturer that obtained approval for South-North Korea cooperation project. Their headquarters was located in Seoul, South Korea, which sounds ironic and their affiliated companies where Pyeonghwa Air Travel Agency, Pyeonghwa Trade, Pyeonghwa Motors General Corporation, Potonggang Hotel, and Pyeonghwa Motors New Technology Laboratory. Their slogans were "Bridge between South and North Korea", "From Baekdu to Halla", and "Go to the World with United Power".

Pyeonghwa Hwiparam

This is the Pyeonghwa Hwiparam. Produced from 2002 to 2006, the Hwiparam compact sedan is essentially a rebadged version of the Fiat Siena. It comes with a 1.6L engine that produces 80hp of power and it comes with a 5-speed manual transmission. The Hwiparam's fuel economy can go up to, and I'm not joking, 7.9km/L! Wow, now that compact car has a very poor fuel economy of its class!

Pyeonghwa Hwiparam II

The Pyeonghwa Hwiparam II is based on the China-made Brilliance BS4 sedan and it comes with a 1.8L engine that produces 110hp of power, mated with a 5-speed manual, top speed of 185kph, and fuel economy of 6.2km/L. Oh my...

Pyeonghwa Hwiparam III

The Hwiparam III is a rebadged version of the Brilliance FSV sedan and what made it worse that why did they haven't remove the FSV badges yet. That's worse. If a Chinese customer came and buy this car, he might think that this car is hiding its lies. Anyway, this is somewhat more fuel efficient than the Hwiparam II because the 1.5L engine has a fuel economy of 8.5km/L. Good thing it comes with a 5-speed automatic transmission. Perhaps this is somewhat North Korea's sports saloon ever made.

Pyeonghwa Ppoggugi

The Pyeonghwa Ppoggugi is just a North Korean version of the Fiat Doblo van. We can see the FIAT badges over there, just like the original Hwiparam. Guess this car is still feeding with lies. Anyway, it comes with a 1.6L diesel engine that produces a stupid 60hp of power output and a highly redundant 11km/L of fuel economy. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard.

Pyeonghwa Ppoggugi II

Apparently, this Pyeonghwa Ppoggugi II is just the North Korean take of the Philippines' favorite SUV, the Isuzu Alterra. Wasn't that rubbish for a North Korean version of the Alterra?!

Pyeonghwa Ppoggugi III

Pyeonghwa's Ppoggugi III is somewhat the North Korean version of the Isuzu pickup truck but this serves as a North Korean workman's workforce.

Pyeonghwa Ppoggugi 4WD

This is somewhat strange. This Ppoggugi 4WD is somewhat a Santa Fe and Sorento mashed-up. Care to see? It has the face of the Santa Fe with the rear of the old Sorento! Can't they think anything worse?!

Pyeonghwa Junma

So, those communist cars in North Korea aren't good when it comes to their looks, reliability, and performance. How about this? This is somewhat far from equal. This is the Pyeonghwa Junma. It is essentially based on the Ssangyong Chairman and it was served as the brand's flagship from 2005 to 2006. This car once said is the perfect limousine for the North Korean officials.

Pyeonghwa Samcheonri

Lastly, there was this. The Pyeonghwa Samcheonri, this van is somewhat familiar to the Super Grandia. This van is powered by a 2.4L petrol engine that produces 101hp of power and fuel economy of 9.8km/L.

So, have we find a proper communist car in North Korea? The answer is no. We are truly scared about North Korea but we aren't scared to their cars because they seem to be completely useless.

Kia Pride/Rio UB, now in the Philippines

2012 Kia Pride

Last September 2011. Kia launched the all-new Pride to the Korean market and it comes complete in either a 4-door sedan and a 5-door hatchback. Now, the all-new Kia Pride/Rio has arrived in the Philippines courtesy of its official distributor, Columbian Autocar Corporation. Of course, they're available in 4-door sedan and 5-door hatchback, the new Kia Pride/Rio comes available with a 1.4L MPi engine and the entry level 1.2L engine. Prices start at 598,000 for the 4-door 1.2 LX variant up to 838,000 Philippine pesos for the 5-door 1.4 EX. There are four variants available. I bet this is surely a good value for those who are looking for cheap Korean-made compacts available in the Philippines. And I hope whoever read this should better leave some comments for some questions.

RUF XL

RUF XL

World-renowned Porsche tuner, RUF, made a long-wheelbase version of the Porsche Panamera called the RUF XL, developed for the Chinese market. Now it may sound weird but can the RUF XL be any "video-game material"? I mean it seems that RUF's heading in the right direction but can the RUF XL be more materialistic because this is a Panamera modified to be LWB? Unveiled at the 2011 Guangzhou Auto Show, the RUF XL has a length of 3,320mm and it comes with a V8 engine producing 414HP of power.

I sure hope the RUF XL has a place in video games because RUF's well known for being featured in video games.

WALD Panamera Black Bison

WALD Panamera Black Bison

Another modified luxury saloon that is part of WALD's Black Bison lineup. This time, the Porsche Panamera's deserved the Black Bison treatment. With a new aero kit, new set of rims, rear spoiler, fender panel, DTM Sports Muffler, and a Velour Floor Mat, this modified Panamera would stop at nothing to be more...annoying.

Yes I know, it's bad, I'm sorry

Megaupload

Seems that the protest against SOPA and PIPA became highly recognizable and successful but feds can't keep up. Seems that the penalty for a successful protest leads to the closure of a file-sharing site you've already familiar with...MEGAUPLOAD!

Today, Megaupload, one of the world's popular file-sharing service, was shuttered and the founder of Megaupload is charged of facilitating millions of illegal downloads of films, music, and other content. Some say, that caused over $500 million of damages and the creator of Megaupload, Kim Dotcom, as well as other employees were apprehended in New Zealand by request of U.S. officials.

Yes I know. It's bad, I'm sorry...
