[Title] => Erap to Tokyo for Obuchi's 'memorial' rites
[Summary] =>
The arrest of 26 Muslim suspects in a roundup of alleged "bombers" of the
Megamall and the Glorietta has enabled Philippine National Police Chief,
Director-General Panfilo Lacson, to leave for Tokyo yesterday afternoon.
What Lacson, whose Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Task Force (PAOCTF) is the
spearhead of the government's anti-terrorist drive, could be doing in Japan is
anybody's guess.

[Title] => Barican admits telling white lies
[Summary] =>
Now it can be told.
As President Estrada's official mouthpiece, it was Fernando "Jerry" Barican's
job to inform the public about the affairs of the President and other goings-on
in the government as well as to parry verbal attacks on the administration.
Barican swears he never lied to the media and the public - on important issues,
at least. Occasionally, however, he made white lies. That, he says, is the
truth.
After serving Mr.

[Title] => Jerry on old job: A choice between homicide and suicide
[Summary] =>
He knew it was time to say goodbye when "homicide or suicide" seemed like great
stress relievers.
In his final press briefing yesterday, former Presidential Spokesman Fernando
Barican jokingly told reporters that "homicide or suicide" were his only
choices whenever he felt stressed during his stint at Malacanang.
"And I thought homicide was always the better choice," he laughed.
He said his experience at Malacanang would serve him in good stead when he
decides to return to the private sector "to do some lawyering and a little
writing."
"I won't miss the stress," he sa

[Title] => Siazon: I never said Barican's unfit to be an envoy
[Summary] =>
Foreign Secretary Domingo Siazon denied yesterday that he ever said outgoing
Presidential Spokesman Fernando Barican was unfit to become an ambassador.
Siazon explained that the possibility of Barican heading either of two plum
diplomatic posts - the United Nations in New York or as Washington envoy - was
not included in the discussions on the spokesman's new assignment.
In diplomacy, he said, it was improper to talk about replacements when the
posts were still occupied.

The figure is lower than that in Pulse Asia's December 9-20, 1999 poll where

[Title] => Buenos Aires post for Barican?
[Summary] =>
Presidential Spokesman Fernando Barican may yet be appointed ambassador to
Buenos Aires, Argentina, vice Ambassador Carlos Alberto Villa Abrille who is

[Title] => Barican raps Siazon over ambassadorial post yarn
[Summary] =>
Conduct unbecoming a professional diplomat.
This was the tart response of outgoing Presidential Spokesman Fernando Barican
to the comment of Foreign Secretary Domingo Siazon that the Department of
Foreign Affairs (DFA) is not an employment agency.
Barican is reportedly being eyed for the post of ambassador to either Indonesia
or Argentina.
Siazon was quoted as saying the DFA was not an employment agency, and that an
ambassadorial assignment for either Barican or Tourism Secretary Gemma
Cruz-Araneta -- also reportedly on the way out -- would be a "demotion."
