[Title] => Farce
[Summary] =>
Even without official government admission, almost all Filipinos already know and even experienced corruption in government. This pernicious and perennial problem of every administration has been with us perhaps ever since the Spanish times. With due apologies to "Madre Espana" and without directly blaming the Spaniards, historical records simply show that the first incidents of corruption happened during the 300 years of the Spanish colonial era in the Philippines.

[Title] => Extreme bias
[Summary] =>
A preliminary investigation is suppose to "secure the innocent against hasty, malicious and oppressive prosecution and to protect him from an open and public accusation of crime, the trouble, expense and anxiety of a public trial" in much the same way as it is intended "to protect the State from useless and expensive trials" (Trocio vs. Manta, 118 SCRA 241). The purpose is laudable. But its realization cannot always be assured precisely because of the accepted fact that the preliminary investigators, like all imperfect human beings, are prone to mistakes or bias.

[Summary] =>
In challenging the authority of the Ombudsman to investigate them for possible criminal prosecution, the Comelec Chairman and Commissioners cite the case of Lecaroz vs. Sandiganbayan (L-56384). Their citation however may not be applicable to them because said case was decided on March 22, 1984 before the effectivity of the present Constitution that created the Ombudsman. Indeed, the decision in said case was not about the jurisdiction of the Ombudsman but of the Sandiganbayan to try and decide cases filed against public officers.

[Title] => Drilon di makig-uli ni Glo
[Summary] => Dili gyud makig-uliay sa buot si Senate President Franklin Drilon kang Presidente Gloria Arroyo kun dili kini makapakitag repormang gipangita sa mga tawo.
Si Drilon sa pakighinabi sa mga sakop sa media nagkanayon nga dili personalay ang pagbuwagsa Liberal Party sa kampo ni Arroyo kundili gumikan kini sa nakita sa ilang grupo nga nawad-an na og salig ang kadaghanan sa pangulo gumikan sa kapakyas niini nga mapatuman ang gipangitang reporma.
Ang maong gihulagway nga repormang gipangita matud pa ni Drilon mao untay makapahaw-as kang Arroyo sa gikahimutangan niini.
