[Title] => Mendacity in the Senate
[Summary] => When you read in the newspapers that the Senate has no more time to debate constitutional reform, don’t believe it. Go to the Senate on Roxas Boulevard and see for yourself to know what they mean there is no more time. If the senators were more serious about their work they would put the issue ahead of all else. We would not need a miracle to get it done. All it needs is the will to do so.

[Title] => Angara: Cha-cha should be held after 2004 polls
[Summary] => Opposition Sen. Edgardo Angara said yesterday the proposed amendment of the Constitution can take place after next year’s combined presidential, congressional and local elections.
"If we decide to make a shift in government from presidential to parliamentary, that should be done after the 2004 elections because the newly elected administration will provide the six-year transition period toward a new system of government," he said.

[Title] => Personal and public concerns
[Summary] => Hong Kong – It was mere coincidence that when I decided to visit daughter Veronica and her newly born daughter, Ysabel, Hong Kong would be celebrating the Chinese Lunar New Year. I only knew of it when I was already here and noted what looked like small potted orange trees blooming in shops and office buildings. I was later told this is the equivalent of the Christmas pine trees or its artificial version since people became conscious of conservation. This is my first time in Hong Kong for the lunar New Year.
