[Title] => Textbook crusader on threats: ‘I am not afraid’
[Summary] => A self-styled crusader for better textbooks in schools said yesterday he is not afraid of the death threats he received over the past several months.

He said that in October last year, he received a "corona" or a floral wreath given to the dead during wakes. The wreath was hung at the school gate one morning.

[Summary] => It seems that the textbook controversy is far from over.
After a review panel convened by the Department of Education (DepEd) confirmed that there were indeed factual and grammatical errors in some history and science books used in public and private schools since the early 1990s, everybody assumed there would now be efforts to correct the errors and that publishing houses would be more careful with their facts.
