GWEN FOR MAYOR? A Cebu City resident, who is into real estate business, wants Gov. Gwen Garcia to run for Cebu City mayor in 2010. “The city needs a strong-willed, hard-working and courageous woman for mayor,” the businessman said. “Segurado gyud kong modaug si Gwen kon modagan pagka-mayor sa siyudad,” he added.

NO PARK IN THE PARK. Asked to comment on the real estate businessman’s idea of letting Gov. Gwen Garcia run for Cebu City mayor, a neutral political observer said: “It will not be a walk in the park for Gwen. Maninguha gyud si Tomas nga di mailog ni Gwen ang city hall, kay unsa nalang unya ang SRP ni Tomas kon ma-mayor si Mam Gwen?”
