Still no justice


BLURBAL THRUSTS

Louie Logarta
01/10/2010

The Supreme Court has been quite generous to the octogenarian billionaire businessman Alfonso Yuchengco Sr. Last November, the high court gave him an early Christmas gift he probably won’t ever forget for the rest of his life.

And another diversion


TABLETS OF STONE

Larry Faraon, OP
01/10/2010

We do not intend to demean the gruesome double murder of Salvador “Bubby” Dacer and Alex Corbito and that justice should really take its course in the case at the soonest possible.
And the Department of Justice has jumped on it again taking Sen. Panfilo Lacson in the leap and soon to be towed with him, presidential comebacker, President Joseph Estrada. This is expected. However, could it be that this is a strategically designed or calculated diversion from the worst crime in Philippine history, namely the Maguindanao Massacre?

Pity, we will miss leading presidentiable Sen. Noynoy Aquino at the foreign policy forum organized by the Carlos P. Romulo Foundation at the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) on Thursday, Jan. 14. Co-hosted by the AIM and the ABS-CBN News Channel, the forum will focus on our international relations and competitveness. That will really be a pity, especially since with our ubiquitous presence in the world (we have 8.5 million Filipinos spread over 110 countries in all continents at the latest count) our credibility and standing will definitely impact on the rights and welfare of our compatriots overseas. The President, whoever he will be by May 2010 certainly has an obligation to these kababayans to ensure that they get their just due and eventually continue contributing their share in our country’s development as they are now doing. Equally important, in this age of globalization and, yes, terrorism and transnational criminal activities, the policies and actions of our national leadership, especially the president will surely go a long way in establishing our credentials, so to speak, in the family of nations.

A note to God


VIEWPOINTS

Archbishop Oscar V. Cruz
01/10/2010

Lest we forget, Great God, remind us continously that You are good and caring, kind and considerate. You are mighty but also lowly. You are in heaven but also with us here on earth. There is no one You do not mind. There is no prayer You do not listen to.

It is only You we worship and adore. .... MORE
