It is not easy to be the President of more than 100 million Filipinos, each one with mounting demands and endless expectations. It is not easy to be mindful of national security, trying to defend more than 7,107 islands from the encroachments and bullying of China, Vietnam, and other territorial predators and poachers. It is not easy to be thinking of national defense with the NPA, MNLF, BIFF, Abu Sayaf, Jamiya Islamia all trying to attack our communities and government and private institutions. It is not easy to be mindful of the crime situation, the drug problems, and the terrorisms emanating from external and internal  purveyors of deaths and destruction.

At the outset, let me greet the brain behind the revival of The Freeman, Dr. Jose R. Gullas, a happy birthday. I was in high school when Sir Dodong, drawing from a hearty preference for publication, funneled his own huge financial resources to give a new life to this paper after an extended period when founder Paulino Gullas decided to cease publishing it.
