Philstar users abuzz, armed with new commenting tool

"Untitled" by Sridhar Srinivasan.

With the launch of Philstar.com's new commenting system, users who frequent the site started to share their two cents on issues and stories through an easy log-in format.

In rage over the "sex-for-flight" scandal purportedly undertaken by some officials against overseas Filipinos, Philstar.com users pray for justice as the government starts probe to shut down the scheme.

They also sounded off their opinion on Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.' plans to run in 2016. Whether for president or not, site readers sure are curious on Marcos' next office.

Users also lauded Senator Vicente Sotto for scrapping the provision of mandatory drug testing from existing law.

Philstar.com launched the new commenting system by San Francisco-based company Disqus last week to make the news site a venue for online conversations.

Instead of registering for a Philstar.com account, readers may now just log in on the form below the article with their existing Twitter or Facebook accounts to express their views on matters affecting the country.
