Water-Powered Car Invention Ignored For Decades by RP Government

by Mr Oldtowner for Rus in Urbe July 12, 2008

Before Honda could unveil its water-powered car last June 2008, the same idea or know-how was already developed by a Filipino inventor in the 80’s. It was Mr. Daniel Dingle who was probably the first man to make an antidote programmed to reduce the world’s “addiction to oil” the popular Bush quotation referring to America’s OPEC oil dependence.

Mr. Dingle was full of hope during the time of his discovery and he was even featured in a number of occasions in radio, TV, newsmagazines and other publications. He demonstrated his water-powered car to investigative reporters and doubting Thomases without any hint of fraud.

He let doubters to actually see and test personally his machine running on water. But despite of his repeated claim of success which could help his country lessen dependence from imported fuel, he was ignored by the Department Of Science and Technology and the government itself.

Instead of giving him full support, the government and the private sector coldly downplayed his invention and even called Mr. Daniel Dingle crazy. He was ridiculed for showing his determination to defy the odds, for going against the severe addiction to oil. Fortunately for him, Mr. Dingle gained trust and confidence from foreigners who were interested in his invention. All he could do then was to turndown the tempting offer.

In a TV interview on Mr. Dingle days ago, he grudgingly criticized the government for not supporting his useful invention. To his dismay, he said that he is now ready to sell his invention to any interested foreign buyers in a condition that 200 Filipino nationals will be hired by anyone who could successfully make a deal with Mr. Daniel Dingle.
