We beg to differ.
The Philippine Opposition are rotting from the inside. This is because their own “thought leaders” are failing to provide sound leadership. Rather than enrich their party ideologies, the premiere “influencers” of the Opposition are leading their members down dead-end pathways. Over the last ten years, the ideological foundations of what had been an almost four-decade…
The whole trouble with any notion of a “Magnitsky Act” regime applied across independent nations is that actually executing its tenets is inherently problematic and will prove extremely difficult. In the case of reported plans of the UK and European Union each implementing their own versions of this Act, the result is likely to be…
Nowadays you’d be hearing a lot of chi chi Western European and North American concepts being bandied around by “thought leaders” of the Opposition.

This is probably the reason why its government is looking for a larger purpose that befits its people’s wealth —…
