What do you do to someone who holds you against your will? Isn't this what happened to Mayor General Mohamad Benjamin Dolorfino and Undersecretary Ramon Santos of the Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process in Panamao, Sulu the other day? Well, thank goodness that this incident didn't escalate into a major disaster just like what happened to Gen. Eduardo Batalla at the treacherous hands of Rizal Alih in Patikul, Sulu on Jan.1989 where the General was brutally murdered and Rizal Alih fled. Of course a couple of years later, Rizal Alih was killed by the authorities.

For tonight's special presentation on Straight from the Sky, we bring you a discussion about that new proposal coming from Malacañang     about the so-called Supra or Mega Regions. Under this new set up, which hopefully will also be discussed in Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (GMA) State of the Nation Address (SONA), (the entire Filipino nation will be glued on nationwide television or to the radio networks to watch the SONA) the Philippines has been divided into four such Supra or Mega Regions.
