We beg to differ.
The Tagalog dialect is the pale basis for “Filipino” which is a variant of it Filipinos were led to believe is their “national language”. This is why Manila — which started as a Tagalog settlement that was turned into a colonial outpost by the Spaniards — is referred to as “Imperial Manila”. That’s because non-Tagalogs…
Our Signal group was having discussions about the looming jeepney strike and the talk eventually reached the point that my economist friend proposed that they cancel all the franchises and award them to private groups who can provide the better, if not the best service. He’s definitely on to something. Part of the reason why…
The morons in the Philippine Opposition continue to discuss and debate about why they continue to lose elections without even taking time out to get feedback from the voter base which wins people elections to begin with.

This “order” is being badmouthed as the cause of inequality, oppression and suffering in general. Such an idea is stupid, since slavery and oppression have been existing as long as humans have…
We must never assume it thinks like the rest of us. Of public opinion Randy David writes in his latest Inquirer piece, “Awkward commemoration, missed opportunity” where he goes at length to elucidate the cringe surrounding this year’s EDSA people power commemoration activities. Interestingly, David proceeds to criticize Marcos again for not extending the hand…
Is EDSA still relevant to Filipinos? I was 20 years old at that time and about to graduate from college. I spent my college years protesting against Marcos after Ninoy Aquino’s death in 1983. I was convinced that then President Ferdinand E. Marcos was evil and the Aquinos were good because of what I read…
