Mira Encabo was born in Cebu, Philippines. She earned her Chemical Engineering Degree at the Technological Institute of the Philippines in Manila. 

​

She started blogging on politics, national issues and world and current affairs on 2015 when responsible journalism in her beloved country has become slowly worthless, partisan and bias.

​

Her message to her readers:

​

"Journalism at present has become predominantly paltry and worthless. Its pretensions are enormous, but its ACHIEVEMENTS are INSIGNIFICANT! Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored!

​

Journalism must not just be regarded as a profession or a trade. It comes with responsibility. A responsibility to write and tell the truth - not what you want the people to believe. The first discipline of education is to resolutely refuse to feed the mind with canned chatter.

​

As we write, let our memory struggle to rescue the truth! If we tell the truth, we don't have to remember anything. Yes, it might be the first that will piss us off, but the truth will set us free. WE MUST NOT ALLOW OURSELVES TO BE USED AS INSTRUMENTS IN MAKING LIES TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD WHILE THE TRUTH REMAINS ON ITS SHOES!

​

Above all, don't lie to yourself. A person who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others.

And to the rest of you reading this, NEVER BE AFRAID TO RAISE YOUR VOICES FOR HONESTY, TRUTH, COMPASSION AGAINST INJUSTICE, LIES and GREED. If people all over the world would do this, there would be REAL CHANGE!"
