Inquirer…the rise of tabloid journalism

Dear Inquirer, The title of your article, “Leni slams growing culture of vigilantism”, published on July 13, 2016, in your newspaper caught my attention.  I was aghast after reading it.1 YOUR TITLE IS GROSSLY EXAGGERATED.  You used the words, “Leni SLAMS growing culture of violence”.  What a word to use, slam means to criticize harshly…

South China Sea ruling justifies military action vs China: Does the Philippines have the means? #CHexit

Was the “favourable” ruling of the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) on the South China Sea dispute a “victory” for Filipinos? Apologist of the administration of former President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III would like Filipinos to believe so. Of course, the objective there is to chalk this up as another “achievement” of the former…

Manny Wanting Time Off Is Only One Problem

Manny Wanting Time Off Is Only One Problem

Much has been made of Manny Pacquiao’s promoter claiming his star client wants to ignore his Senate duties to fight some more.  Manny Pacquiao if anything is very consistent. He does everything half assed then makes excuses which his intellectual followers easily buy. The reason Manny does a lot of different pursuits ( singer, politician,…

Leni Robredo has become a victim of her own over-confidence

Current Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo is proving that her detractors are right about her.
