[Title] => The Lovely of my life
[Summary] => Seems like only yesterday when we were in Madrid and we were young. To quote Winston Churchill, “Glorious in that dawn to be alive, but to be young was very heaven.”

[Title] => GMA’s lowest rating: A wakeup call
[Summary] => GMA once related to us that whenever people would congratulate her mother about her being the school valedictorian, Doña Eva Macapagal would say, "As she should always be." Ironically, the expectations of people about the president seem to be that she should be better than the best.

[Title] => GMA adopts her father’s simple-living policy
[Summary] => During President Diosdado Macapagal’s administration, the main motto of the government was "Simple Living" and President Macapagal was the very first to set the example right in Malacañang. The government was very frugal with all government expenses. We had the honor and privilege of being Secretary of Education at that time and I remember that our salary was unbelievably low because it was still based on the 1935 Constitution.

[Title] => Susan Roces as First Lady
[Summary] => 
Around this time next year, a new president should have been installed into office — that is, if President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo doesn’t run and win.
Along with the new President is a new First Lady who shall be acting as the official Malacañang hostess.
The matriarchal society that we are, we’ll surely be paying a lot of attention to the First Lady and how she will run the Palace.

[Title] => Ladies First
[Summary] => Thanks to Rosie Osmeña Valencia who invited me, I went to the very interesting launching of the book on Philippine First Ladies produced by Jose Rodriguez and his own "First Lady", the talented painter Lulu Coching.
Rosie said to me, "Of course, I invited you–of all my friends, you were very close to my mother"–and I was. Doña Titay was so close to my mother and father that whenever I remember the days when I was growing up, Doña Titay’s image is always a part of the mental picture.

[Title] => Arroyo hits slow Comelec canvass
[Summary] => Vote canvassing is proceeding at snail’s pace, and even the name of President Arroyo’s late mother Eva Macapagal was not purged from the voters’ list.
An exasperated President Arroyo slammed yesterday the exceedingly slow counting of the votes cast in the May 14 polls, and called for radical changes in the country’s electoral system.
Although she welcomed the strong showing of pro-administration senatorial candidates, the President bewailed the rise in election-related deaths and poll fraud.
