                    [Summary] => 

I was busy beating the deadline last Saturday so I just left our television set in the newsroom on while I went on closing Hugyaw, Banat’s entertainment section. But I was appalled when I heard XXX host Julius Babao described as “bading na kawatan” a male thief who was caught by a surveillance camera entering a residence, apparently to steal. The subject was sporting a long hair and was walking as if doing the catwalk.

[Summary] => Last Tuesday as I was driving along D. Jakosalem St. there was a huge traffic jam, caused by a parade taking the whole stretch of D. Jakosalem St. I thought that this was probably a school celebration or something. But as I read The Freeman's headline yesterday, the parade I encountered was in celebration for the 33rd anniversary of the Alpha Kappa Rho or Akrho Fraternity. It turned out that one of their members was shot at the corner of Sanciangko St. and Panganiban St. while another was wounded.

The mayor said he is open to suggestions over what the city could do to prevent future incidents involving the two groups.

Sanchez said the province wants to get the complete member list of these fraternities.

Alpha Kappa Rho and Tau Gamma Phi - the very names conjure conflicts and mayhem. Whatever the reasons, an ongoing feud exists between these groups that have triggered sporadic incidents resulting in injuries and fatalities. So serious were these happenings that one police official proposed that these fraternities be declared as criminal groups, and should therefore be disbanded.
