From totalitarian rule during the Marcos regime, we will swing to the opposite end. We will turn into a state with a twisted concept of freedom, where anything goes, where there is a complete breakdown of discipline in everything from governance and fiscal management to vehicular traffic.

The Philippines will become a failed state, and all of us will be to blame.

Let’s hope so. The nation’s founding fathers must be turning over in their graves, seeing what we have made of the republic they had shed buckets of blood, sweat and tears to build.

When our national leaders visit the cemeteries this weekend, they should take time out to consider whether years from now, their graves will be spat upon by Filipinos who will blame them for bringing the nation to ruin.

Is MMDA chief Jejomar Binay squeezing himself where he's not wanted, yet not acting where he's needed?

Forbes Park residents say Binay is the political force driving to reclassify their McKinley Road from residential to commercial zone. They had voted thrice in 1997 against the move, yet Binay's men in Makati's city council still want to ram it down their throat. They belie claims that rezoning would lessen pollution, for it would surely increase traffic -- the cause of 75 percent of Metro Manila's dirty air.
