For Mindanao's good

MINDANAO'S LOSS. In a meeting of a group calling itself Mindanao First, most of the members said ex Sen. Migz Zubiri's failure to make it to the magic 12 in the senatorial race is a big loss to Mindanao. An Ear informer, a student leader from Ozamiz City, said even supporters of Sen. Koko Pimentel, a political enemy of Zubiri, agreed that “it would have been for Mindanao's good if Zubiri also won.”

MORE NEEEDED. Attendees in the Mindanao First meeting said “the more Mindanaoans in Congress the better for our region.” The Ear informer said he heard one member of the group say: “Let Mindanaoans fight in an election, but let them unite once elected for Mindanao's good.”
