Pinoy inventor dumps multimillion
dollar US deal for gas-saving gadget

By Jonathan Vicente , Reporter

THE Filipino inventor Pablo Planas has received numerous commendations from government officials and lawmakers for the patriotism he showed when huge foreign companies abroad offered to buy the exclusive rights of the gasoline-saving device he created.

Planas had turned down a multimillion-dollar package offered by a US-based company in exchange for buying the entire rights of his invention, the Khaos Super Turbo Charger (KSTC). He also turned down a migration “treat” for his family in exchange for the gadget’s blueprint.

Rep. Manuel Zamora of Compostela Valley said the House of Representatives considers Planas “a true statesman” when he refused to give in to the financial opportunity offered to him by countries like United States, Germany, Singapore and China.

Zamora was the first congressman who gave support to Planas after learning that the United States offered $10 million for the rights of the gasoline-saving gadget.

Reps. Boying Remulla of Cavite, Benny Abante of Manila, Generoso Tulagan of Manila and Benasing Macarambon of Lanao del Norte also lauded Planas for thinking about the welfare of Filipinos.

The 67-year-old inventor said he did not accept the proposals from the foreign multinational companies because only foreigners would benefit from the worldwide distribution of his invention.

“No Filipino could afford this gadget in case the US and the other countries buy the rights of the KSTC. As a former jeepney driver, I also know that Filipinos need this product more than the people in the First World countries,” Planas said.

Energy Secretary Vince Perez and Environment Secretary Mike Defensor said they would recommend the product to the proper markets within the Philippines.

Defensor said the government would support Planas for his invention, although he did not specify what kind of support.

When attached to a gasoline engine, the KSTC reduces a vehicle’s fuel consumption by half. It also helps reduce smoke emissions by lowering the toxic fumes due to its 100-percent efficient gas combustion.

Pambihirang pagkatao, kahanga-hanga. Biruin niyo $10 Million tinanggihan. Mahahalikan ko ito sa talampakan kung magkakaharap kami balang araw. Kahanga-hanga pagkatao.

Mabutit namulat na tayong mga Pilipino sa katotohanan. Isipin niyo na lang yung mga nag-imbento ng KARAOKE at FLUORESCENT BULB, sila ay mga Pilipino pero sino na ang nakikinabang ngayon?

Tama yun desisyon mo kabayan. Mabuhay ka.

Saludo ako sa iyo kabayan.

That would probably be expensive if it has a world wide patent.

Check the link that i've found.

Bump.
Forumwalker
he surely will smoke him in the near future but not all could use the hydrogen power in the near future yet coz u need 2 machines.. it'll be expensive to use maybe in its first few years of production just like cellphones.

He should start exporting it to 1st world countries and charging ridicuosly high prices for it. And attach a explosive to it in case people try to take it apart. embarassedlaugh.gif

One more pinoy to be proud of, good job in not selling out. biggthumpup.gif

The Khaos Super Turbo Charger does not work as claimed. It can even ruin your engine in the long run.

The dealers also do not refund your money as SOP (standard operating procedure) using the reason, "It works on our test [your car model] car" statement.

For the truth behind the advertisements and hype:
