Filipino politicians will start doing their jobs properly if the voters stopped treating them like celebrities

Anti pork barrel protests need not be complicated. Just take the celebrities out of the loop.

These are confusing times for would-be protesters. Everyone, it seems, is in agreement over the need to scrap the pork barrel gravy train that, for many politicians, has become the whole point of vying for a seat in Congress. Trouble is there are too many “experts” on what, where, when, and how protest rallies should…

What next after the August 26 million people march to Luneta versus the pork barrel?

In a previous article, I harped on the fantasy world where it could be possible to hope to see senators and congresspersons found guilty of abusing the vast sums of discretionary funds made available to them out of the national budget being marched out of their homes or offices handcuffed. “This is my definition of…
