[Title] => Scout’s honor
[Summary] =>
In this corner a few days ago, I made the sarcastic remark that while wearing his unbuttoned Marine "colonel" uniform over a red shirt, Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay – being a few inches shorter than Napoleon Bonaparte, I might add – looked more like a Boy Scout, but "he’s no Boy Scout."

[Title] => Time to throw out our political patronage!
[Summary] => The Cebu Customs post has become so highly politicized that people who desperately want to replace current Cebu Customs Collector Ma. Lourdes Mangaoang would go to the extent of being grilled before the Cebu provincial board in the hope of getting an endorsement.

[Title] => The strange ‘medical’ holiday of Moro rebel Nur Misuari
[Summary] => Neophyte Senator Jambi Madrigal’s "crying lady" episode in the Senate was all over television last Monday. It was quite a sight to witness Jambi sobbing her heart out in a very un-senatorial way. The drama had all the elements of soap opera, with fellow lady Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago – a tougher and more tart-tongued exponent of the gender – patting Jambi comfortingly on the back and soothingly saying, "There, there dearie, it’s not worth your tears."

[Title] => Cellphone firms pocket unused prepaid credits
[Summary] => VANISHING CREDIT: Finally, a senator is questioning the legality and fairness of cellphone companies’ forfeiting the balance of pre-paid phone card values that are not used within a restrictive short time.
Sen. Manuel Villar, finance committee chairman, has filed a resolution asking the public services committee to look into possible violations of RA 7295 that provides that rates of telecom firms "must be fair, reflective of a fair return on their investments, reasonable and are not distorted such that the public is adversely affected."

[Title] => GMA is right: Sock it to the Moro rebels!
[Summary] => IT’S A DUTY: To President Arroyo, to fight back to uphold the majesty of the law in Southern Philippines is not a choice. It is a duty.
As Commander-in-Chief, she had to order the troops to hunt down the cocky rebels who had attacked government camps, killing two colonels and some 30 soldiers, in open defiance of duly constituted authority.
The President had to reject belated calls for a ceasefire in the battle zones in Sulu. It is crazy to agree to a truce – after government troops had suffered heavy casualties in treacherous attacks.

[Title] => Zamboanga bans all US-related rallies
[Summary] => ZAMBOANGA CITY – "Balikatan" rallies, whether for or against, will no longer be allowed at the city plaza, named after a US general who suppressed a secessionist Muslim rebellion more than a century ago.
Zamboanga City Mayor Maria Clara Lobregat said the local government would no longer grant permits to any group wishing to use Plaza Pershing as a venue for expressing sentiments on the ongoing RP-US war exercises dubbed "Balikatan 02-1." She gave no reason for issuing the ban.

[Title] => In the end, will the soldiers once again ‘vote’ with their guns? - BY THE WAY by Max V. Soliven
[Summary] => Year after year, in the spirit of upholding "democracy", we keep repeating the mantra that, under our Constitution, civilian authority must be maintained over the military. Lip service, I’d say, in the wake of the continuing argument over how many generals, "retired" generals, and other officers are now demanding the "resignation" of President Estrada – or pledging to support him as Commander-in-Chief under the nation’s organic law.
