“To save money, I prefer not to hold induction ceremonies this year.” This was expressed by Emman Llagas after he was unanimously reelected as Chairman of the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster sa Pilipinas (Cam. Sur).

However, other station managers still prefer to have the traditional ceremonies for induction with guest speakers like Com. Ricky Carandang and DILG Sec. Jesse Robredo. For them, this is also an opportunity to raise funds for medical mission and sports competitions.

RH Bill: Unconstitutional

“Reproductive health” (RH) appears laudable, especially if avowed to help our poverty-challenged people or provide care, information, and other assistance for well-being. Who doesn’t want to be healthy, particularly among our women who bring new life to the world?

“Reproductive health” (RH) appears laudable, especially if avowed to help our poverty-challenged people or provide care, information, and other assistance for well-being. Who doesn’t want to be healthy, particularly among our women who bring new life to the world?

But as always, the devil is in the details. If we examine the entire consolidated RH Bill 4244, it totally disregards the unborn. You don’t even find the word “unborn.” On this score, the bill is unconstitutional for it obviously violates Equal Protection.

Aquino Government Should Urgently Address Hunger Problem Instead of Denying It Exists

If the Aquino government really wants to solve the problem of hunger and poverty, it should exercise its “political will” in the right direction: toward defending the rights and interest of the poor majority and the general public.

Aquino Government Should Urgently Address Hunger Problem Instead of Denying It Exists

Every time the incidence of hunger worsened during the previous administration, the Arroyo government used to dismiss the findings of the Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey on hunger as subjective... And now, the Aquino government, which was propelled to power because of its campaign slogan of “change,” is doing the same thing.

What to Make of the Truth Commission Setback

If the Aquino administration is really serious about holding the Arroyo family and their allies accountable for the crimes they committed against the Filipino people, it could not dilly-dally about it nor could it put a glove to the arm of justice.

Tourism: It's Local!

In fine, tourism is local, not national. And local is about being ourselves in our best.

“Pilipinas Kay Ganda!” This aborted re-branding for the Philippines was supposed to replace “Wow! Philippines.” On TV, DOT Secretary Lim explained that the reason behind this effort was because “Wow! Philippines” was only effective locally and did not work outside the country.

But as it turned, the DOT did a rush job that simply went kaput. Worse, the website for the campaign was only a letter different from a porn site. Sec. Lim then admitted that they did not do their homework. Worst, such “Kay Palpak” is at our expense.
