[Title] => Let there be peace
[Summary] => It’s woefully disturbing that from news reports of scattered clashes between the AFP and the Abu Sayyafs and/or Muslim rebels, against the AFP and the PNP as well as the so-called dwindling NPA forces, it’s the government forces always at the worst receiving end.

[Summary] => One of Senator Richard Gordon’s readily noticeable traits as a national and local public official is his courage to act based on his firm conviction; to take up even extremely unpopular causes he believes in.

[Title] => Emilio's calculated risks
[Summary] => MANILA, Philippines – Emilio Garcia does not repeat himself. At least that’s what he thinks is the reason why he still has a waiting list of assignments while other actors don’t.

[Title] => Analysis: Ransom, politics embolden kidnappers
[Summary] => MANILA, Philippines (Xinhua) - "It's all about money." Large amount of ransom payment has fueled the notorious rebel group Abu Sayyaf's activities and has spawned a number of smaller kidnapping-for-ransom gangs in the Philippines, a leading anti-crime crusader in the country said.

[Title] => Muslim women for conflict resolution
[Summary] => ZAMBOANGA CITY: The creme de la creme of the country’s Muslim women are in this city – as participants in a Muslim Women Peace Advocates Workshop-Conference on Peace and Development. A few minutes ago, a rare Muslim woman municipal mayor spoke about her successful hurdling of cultural obstacles to her running for the post in the last local elections of Lantawon, Basilan – "a breeding place for Abu Sayyafs." Mayor Tahira Ismael-Sansawi governs "with faith and confidence", and the belief that leaders should be "Makadios, makatao and makabayan".

[Title] => Don’t make a business out of politics
[Summary] => Now that the political race has begun, it is now time to consider who among the presidential aspirants have a true reform package or plan. We already know that one major casualty of the Davide impeachment case was the call by House Speaker Jose de Venecia for a shift to a parliamentary form of government. People in Cebu are saying that if we were in a parliamentary system, Davide would not stand a chance, nor House Speaker de Venecia. That leaves us with my favorite one, federalism. If you don’t want a federal, then tell me if there are other concepts out there? Communism?

[Title] => Good news and bad news
[Summary] => First, the good news and it is that at long last the Supreme Court has decided that $682 million of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos’ ill-gotten wealth belongs to the Philippine government. Great crimes can be committed instantaneously. Justice is always a slow process. Sometimes it never even comes. To this date, no one knows the identify of the high official who ordered the shooting of Ninoy Aquino. And even if his identity were revealed today, his crime has already prescribed. No action can be taken against him.

[Title] => War in Mindanao must be to the finish
[Summary] => We were elated when we read that the Moro Islamic Liberation Front had declared a 10-day Unilateral Ceasefire in hopes that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo would order a halt to the ongoing military operation in Mindanao. It is true that the unilateral ceasefire was supposed to take effect on June 2. But two days later, 70 MILF terrorists fired mortar and rocket-propelled grenades at two detachments of the 40th Infantry Battalion in Carmen, North Cotabato, killing 19 soldiers and five civilians. This is the best proof that the war in Mindanao is far from over. The MILF is a terrorist group.
