Filipinos need a radically NEW kind of nationalism

The epic failure that was the 5th State of the Nation Address (SONA) of Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III this week highlights a pressing need for Filipinos to come up with a new — more modern — form of nationalistic drive. What President BS Aquino essentially did this week was break the proverbial…

President Noynoy Aquino and criticism: can’t live with it, can’t live without it

Philippine president Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino does not hide the fact that he does not like being criticized.
