Councilor Edgardo Labella, chairman of the committee on laws, said "the knee-jerk effort to transform our beleaguered OFWs into 'supermaids' seems to remind us of the humiliating effect spurred by a certain western dictionary not too long ago when the same, wittingly or unwittingly, defined a Filipino as a household servant.

To begin with, the numbers still don’t appear to be with the pro-impeachment forces. Twenty-nine congressmen are listed as "co-complainants" in this "Amended Complaint." But I recognize at least three names that I am fairly certain have not signed, and do not intend to sign, the complaint.
