What's hot …
AS I WRECK THIS CHAIR By William M. Esposo The Philippine Star A retired American banking executive is married to a Filipina and now calls our country home. He maintains a blog (http://thesocietyofhonor.blogspot.com) and uses a penname in his articles — Joe America. One of his articles recently went viral on social media. It was titled: “The Society of Honor by Joe America: President Aquino: Read More …
Noynoy Must Lead; Everyone Must Do Their Part By Leandro D. Quintana My last article urging reforms vis-à-vis the Philippine culture of graft and corruption drew considerable interest. Many vowed to do their part. Others expressed frustration. More still seemed resigned to what they see as our “way of life” in the Philippines. Desperate indeed. The question is, is a way out really possible? Is Read More …
AT GROUND LEVEL By Satur C. Ocampo Philippine Star What’s the significance of the Supreme Court’s unanimous “final and executory” ruling last April 24, ordering the distribution of 4,915 hectares of Hacienda Luisita, Inc. land to 6,296 farmworker-beneficiaries? The ruling ended — or so it is hoped! — 45 years of waiting by the farmworkers to own the land that was to have been given Read More …
ON DISTANT SHORE By Val G. Abelgas Something’s eerily familiar in what’s happening to the Philippines in the last two years and in the political events of almost three decades ago.

DUCKY PAREDES MALAYA ‘I will follow my father’s footsteps in doing what is right, and God will take care of the rest. My father is my role model. My living role model is Cory Aquino.

GLIMPSES By Jose Ma. Montelibano Almost thirty years ago, Ninoy Aquino was assassinated in the Manila International Airport whilst it was under the heaviest military protection second only to Malacanang Palace. The murder was grotesque in its arrogance, in the message that nobody was safe from the long arms of the dictatorship – not even with international media on the watch. Against that arrogance was Read More …
Glimpses By Jose Ma. Montelibano The problem when one loses credibility is that even the purest truth becomes suspect. I remember in February of 1986 when the dictator Marcos showed three military officers on television and accused them of an assassination or coup de etat plot. The public did not believe him, of course. Most Filipino thought it was another zarzuela like the 1972 staging Read More …
CLICK TO VIEW VIDEO >> AQUINO COJUANGCO: FACTS THEY DONT WANT YOU TO KNOW By PinoyMonkeyPride on Oct 21, 2011 Lahat ng baho ni Marcos, Ramos, Erap at GMA ay naisapubliko na. Maliban lang kay Cory. Dahil nga sa media bias sa ating bansa. Ito po ang aking pokus sa ngayon, ang pag-laganap ng facts na hindi binabanggit sa media. Dahil dito, nagmumuka akong Read More …
