I feel a bit disappointed with some people when I find them believing anything or everything told to them about another person who is supposedly accused of some wrongdoing or has generally been portrayed as a target of “righteous” indignation. Chismis or rumor is stereo-typically spun and circulated in coffee shops, barbershops, beauty salons, and…

While the public in Metro Manila are preoccupied with the controversy surrounding the pork barrel and the leaked sex tape of Parokya ni Edgar singer Chito Miranda, it seems that the Philippine central government based in Manila can only look on and react belatedly at five (5) recent bombing incidents that occurred in Mindanao.
