                    [Summary] => The long-running "Gloriagate" controversy brought about by the "Hello Garci" wiretapped audio tapes was the top story of the year marked by roller-coaster public approval ratings of the bureaucracy, a year of notable extremes and pendulum swings of fortune. 


Though President Arroyo escaped impeachment, there is still no closure to her alleged attempts to rig the 2004 elections.

Ginawa ni Justice Sec. Raul Gonzalez ang nasabing kautusan kay Immigration Commissioner Alipio Fernandez Jr. matapos na ‘ikanta’ ng akusadong si Roberto Lumagui si Bailley na siya umanong utak sa nasabing krimen.


Sa 1-pahinang memorandum ni Gonzalez kay Fernandez, sinabi nito na kailangang isama ang pangalan ni Bailley sa mga listahan ng mga akusadong hindi dapat makalabas ng Pilipinas, upang tuluyang hindi mapagkaitan ng katarungan ang pagkamatay ng nasabing Asec.


"In the interest of the public and so as not frustrate the ends of justice, you are hereby directed to include in the bureau’s watchlist the name of Ester Ramos Bailley, who stands charged as one of the respondents for robbery with homicide," nakasaad sa memorandum.

Di ba’t ganyan ang nangyari sa Nida Blanca murder case na hanggang ngayon ay wala pa ring nangyayari.

Mervin Ordiales, 25, and Danilo Borres, 44, both of whom drove for Ramos, have executed sworn statements, according to Chief Inspector Manny Santos, chief of criminal investigation division of the Makati City police.


The female housemaid has yet to be identified and has been uncooperative with investigators, Santos said.

LAGANAP ang kahirapan at ang masaklap laganap din ang krimen. Habang tumataas ang bilang ng mga nalilipasan ng gutom, patuloy din naman ang pagsalakay ng mga masasamang tao. Kung hindi sa gutom mamatay, sa kamay ng mga halang ang kaluluwa natatapos ang buhay ng mga kawawa. Sa kabila naman ng mga nangyayaring krimen, sinasabi ng Philippine National Police (PNP) na bumaba ang crime rate sa bansa. Sa mga nangyayaring malagim na krimen ngayon, tila mahirap paniwalaan ang sinabi ng PNP.

LAGANAP ang kahirapan at ang masaklap laganap din ang krimen. Habang tumataas ang bilang ng mga nalilipasan ng gutom, patuloy din naman ang pagsalakay ng mga masasamang tao. Kung hindi sa gutom mamatay, sa kamay ng mga halang ang kaluluwa natatapos ang buhay ng mga kawawa. Sa kabila naman ng mga nangyayaring krimen, sinasabi ng Philippine National Police (PNP) na bumaba ang crime rate sa bansa. Sa mga nangyayaring malagim na krimen ngayon, tila mahirap paniwalaan ang sinabi ng PNP.
