[Summary] => As the Beatles sang… I read the news today oh boy… The Philippines is now No. 1 most corrupt country.

[Summary] => The latest news from the office of the Ombudsman is that a thorough investigation is on the way concerning reports that emission testing centers are not really testing vehicles.
HELLO?!!! That Ms. Ombudsman is not news. But if youre going to investigate these so-called independent centers, would you also like to investigate who really owns them? And while youre at it, will you please check the drug tests, the medical test, the eye test and find out who owns them?
