[Title] => Erap asks court for 3-day New Year’s furlough
[Summary] =>
Detained President Joseph Estrada’s lawyer Rene Saguisag asked yesterday for a three-day New Year furlough for his client even as he questioned the claim of the Philippine National Police (PNP) that it could not provide security for Estrada’s Christmas furlough.
"With all due respect, should the police have such a dominant role in our national life?" asked Saguisag, who said it is about time the justices of the anti-graft court’s special division "revisit their (police’s) role."

[Title] => Flaws in the laws, but who made them?
[Summary] => If it ain’t broke, don’t fix them. This is always easier said than done by many of our lawmakers in Congress.
I won’t make sense if I should not speak in behalf of many Filipinos, who think the same way on why Congress has to pass new laws to amend existing ones, which they themselves approved in the most recent past only.

[Title] => Court asked to deny Erap’s villa offer
[Summary] => Detained President Joseph Estrada was out to "embarrass the government" when he offered for lease at only P1 a year his 15-hectare resthouse in Tanay, Rizal in order for him to enjoy the privilege of house arrest, prosecutors said yesterday.
Chief Special Prosecutor Dennis Villa Ignacio urged the Sandiganbayan Special Division to deny outright the ousted leader’s offer, branding it as a "scenario" straight out of a "sitcom script."
