[Title] => Absentee Voting Law must be disseminated abroad
[Summary] => Seven and a half million Filipinos live abroad. That is about 10 percent of our population. This was because they could not find jobs in their own country. Now they are one of our biggest dollar producers. They send back about eight billion dollars a year. During the month of June, for instance, our dollar supply goes up. This is because our overseas workers send money to enroll their families to school.

[Title] => DENR Secretary Bebet Gozun: From '70s firebrand to post-Edsa reformer
[Summary] => Memory serves not faithfully, but well enough to awaken the past.
It starts with a slip of a girl from the UP in the late Sixties, a long-tressed lass with impossibly dark eyes and a mole under curving lips. A girl who looked you straight in the eye and ran you ragged with her energy and never backed down from anyone or anything.
Men’s hearts were broken on street marches and picket lines, for she had set her cap early on a gruff young charmer from Ateneo. It would turn out to be one of the few Movement marriages, strong and constant, to endure.

[Title] => Where lahar failed, coal plant might just succeed
[Summary] => HAVE PITY ON US!: They tell us that the many independent power producers (IPPs) feeding the Luzon grid of the National Power Corp. actually have excess capacity and that they have to operate below their rated capability.
With that unused surplus (which we captive consumers pay for anyway), why is the government still allowing the putting up of additional coal-fired plants that are not only unnecessary but also sure to add more lethal waste elements in the air we breathe?
