[Title] => Our Elections Should Now Be High Tech
[Summary] =>
I was surfing cable channels last Saturday evening when I chanced upon a live
report of CNN from Taipei. The Koumintang candidate for president was conceding
the election. Apparently, it was officially announced a few minutes earlier
that the opposition candidate China hates most has won the election.
What I found amazing here is the speed by which they counted the votes. It was
just about eight in the evening of Saturday and there they were, with the final
results for an election held that day. I found that amazing, almost
unbelievable.

[Title] => Local Internet Stocks On The Rise
[Summary] =>
It is an old story in the US. Internet-related stocks have been the darlings of
the market for more than a couple of years now. And the way the market values
these stocks defy traditional ways of recognizing value. Amazon dot com, the
on-line bookseller, has made billions for its founder and early stockholders in
the stock market. But the company itself still has to earn its first dollar in
net income.
The trend has come to Asia. Perhaps the regional financial crisis delayed its
coming, but now it is here.

[Title] => Up Budget Cut Seals Rp Future
[Summary] =>
The P155 million cut inflicted on the budget of the University of the
Philippines may not seem much to a senator or a congressman looking at about a
hundred billion pesos in deficit. But taken together with similar cuts in the
budget of the Department of Education, we may have reason to fear what the
future holds for our children.
Okay, I am an alumnus of the State University but outside of that, I have no
axe to grind. None of my children are studying at UP.
