Philippine Opposition “thought leaders” are desperate. Their camp had been thwarted in all their legal efforts to seize power. Having failed to appeal their value to the Filipino voter they now adopt an astounding strategy — appeal for foreign intervention. Inquirer columnist Rina Jimenez-David in her latest piece, for example, is up in arms over…
