[Title] => Fixing ourselves? Ask the right questions!
[Summary] => I’ve been out of Cebu for more than two weeks now, flying the other week to Beijing to cover the formal opening of the Philippine Tourism Office with Tourism Secretary Roberto "Obet" Pagdanganan and meeting Philippine Ambassador Willy Gaa, a good friend of my golf crony, Jake Marques. Now we’re here in the United States at the tail-end of a four-day conference and to some spend time with our old friends, Filipinos who found the greener pastures of the United States, sharing the so-called "American dream."

[Title] => Elections: Greatest folly / And so we muddle on
[Summary] => The sign of the times are downright alarming. You sense it. When you see President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and Miriam Defensor-Santiago smooch each other with hoochie-coochie ardor, that’s it. You know a political whorehouse when you see it. Time there was when La Miriam, until now a staunch defender of Erap Estrada, lashed GMA to the post and called her every vile and dirty name in the book. On a smaller scale, that was also the public perception when Loren Legarda joined Da King Fernando Poe Jr. as his vice presidential teammate.

[Title] => FPJ, Lacson, Kabayan, GMA: The final folly?
[Summary] => We would have wanted this yearend column to send sparks of optimism, of good tidings to squelch the perception that we are a nation headed for the scrap-heap in the near future. But the news Tuesday was just too much. Even this aging journalist who has been at the ringside of Philippine history for more than 50 years grimaced in sheer shame at the gall and audacity of it all.

[Title] => That full-page ad for GMA / Pacheco and Kapatiran
[Summary] => It was a full-page ad that leaped at your eyes. It was an exhortation ad, a billow-or-bust ad that mirrored the upheaval now shaking the Philippines, that called on the Filipino people "to rally behind the President in this moment of crisis." The 64 signatories defined that ad which appeared Saturday in all the major broadsheets. They comprised the cream of the Establishment led by former presidents Corazon Aquino and Fidel V. Ramos, Ricardo Cardinal Vidal and a cluster of archbishops and religious sisters. Surprisngly, the signature of Jaime Cardinal Sin was absent.
