                    [Summary] => It’s just the second week of the year so people are still willing to give President Arroyo time to implement the reforms she has promised. But it gets harder every day to hold back criticism as we watch the Cabinet reshuffle unfold. 


You already know the criticisms (and puzzled looks) that greeted the appointment of Simeon Datu-manong as secretary of justice. Maybe he’ll prove us wrong and shine in his new post, but for now I haven’t met anyone who is impressed with his appointment.

Ang rigodon sa Gabinete partikular sa Office of the Press Secretary ay kasunod ng pagkakahirang kay dating Presidential Spokesman Rigoberto Tiglao bilang Chief of Staff ng Pangulo.

The Clean Air Act calls for the replacement of motorcycles with two-stroke engines with cleaner four-stroke engines.
