Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia in showdown with Aquino government

What is happening in Cebu? Apparently there is some sort of a lockdown going on complete with riot police and wire barricades in front of the governor’s office.

We see these sidewalk vendors along the…

Teach me how to fish…not to dougie

First he called it a “pro-poor budget”; now he calls it an “empowering national budget”.

Malacañang gets the RH Bill passed, but do the ends justify the means?

The Reproductive Health Bill (RH Bill) was passed on Monday, December 17, in both houses of Congress here in the Philippines on the third and final reading.

Not the end of the world as we know it

The passage of Senate Bill No. 2865 and House Bill House Bill No. 4244 is not something the Philippine Roman Catholic body, both the Church and its people, should be afraid of.

Next bomb to drop on the Catholic Taliban: HB 1799 proposing enactment of Divorce law in the Philippines

Dawn of long-overdue population control in the Philippines as Congress passes HB 4244

Make no mistake, the passing in Congress today of House Bill 4244 also known as the Reproductive Health (RH) Bill is foremost a triumph for long-overdue population control in the Philippines.
