A Duterte-Marcos Philippine government is in the horizon!

A Duterte-Marcos Philippine government is in the horizon!

The standout theme of this year’s presidential elections is finally taking shape and crystallising before our eys. The vote is being shaped by a growing view that the status quo is no longer to be tolerated. The Yellow brand of the Aquino-Cojuangco-Roxas clans has long ago lost their “revolutionary” laban persona and have, over the…

Use of Tagalog and other native dialects should be banned from Filipino political debates!

Use of Tagalog and other native dialects should be banned from Filipino political debates!

I watched Round 2 of the presidential debates (dubbed #PilipinasDebates2016) last night. It was really entertaining! Mar Roxas was clearly on the run, chased by the disarming wit and articulateness of Rodrigo Duterte and Grace Poe. Vice President Jojo Binay was also pretty sharp and, for a guy who prepared notes but wasn’t allowed to…

Duterte and Poe clear winners in Round 2 of #PilipinasDebates2016 held at UP Cebu

There are only three key takeaways coming out of the second round of the 2016 presidential debates or #PilipinasDebates2016 held in the Cebu campus of the University of the Philippines (UP Cebu): (1) Mar Roxas was the butt of jokes, swipes, and even a seeming collusion between his three opponents, (2) Vice President Jejomar Binay…

Leni Robredo is the WRONG choice for Vice President of the Philippines

Posted on March 18, 2016 By David Yap II 129 Comments on Leni Robredo is the WRONG choice for Vice President of the Philippines
Leni Robredo is the WRONG choice for Vice President of the Philippines

Bongbong Marcos being the ‘wrong’ choice for Vice President does not make your preferred candidate the ‘right’ choice. That does not make Rep. Leni Robredo the ‘answer’. She has not demonstrated that she is capable of assuming the mantle of the vice presidency of the Philippines. I have to speak out against this. This is…

Again another outrage fad is erupting and this time it centres around a student of the University of the Philippines Los Banos campus (UPLB) confronting presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte with some pointed questions recently.

Sereno Court judgment adds reason why Grace probably won’t be a good President

Posted on March 13, 2016 By Hector Gamboa 34 Comments on Sereno Court judgment adds reason why Grace probably won’t be a good President
Sereno Court judgment adds reason why Grace probably won’t be a good President

The recent ruling of the Sereno Court, validating Sen. Grace Poe Llamanzares’ (GPL) claim that she is a natural born Filipino, has underscored the need for the voters to pick someone who has a competent understanding and appreciation of the supremacy of the Constitution and not the Supreme Court itself. The Supreme Court, afterall, was…

There is no longer any point defending the Constitution

There is no longer any point defending the Constitution

So Sen. Grace Poe Llamanzares (GPL) has been cleared to run for the presidency of the Philippines by the Philippine Supreme Court. We may not agree with the decision but I think it is time to move on. The majority of the gods of Padre Faura have spoken. Who cares if the clear text of…
