                    [Summary] => I have yet to understand what the opposition at the House of Representatives means when they speak of a "creeping impeachment."


It seems to me rather obscene. It calls for rules to be too elastic to matter. It allows too much room for opportunism. It suggests that the impeachment complaint filed before President’s State of the Nation Address in a bid to steal the limelight was in fact a work-in-progress, a suit without merit at the onset but insistent that it might have merit somewhere along the way.

Ito ang inihayag kahapon ni dating Speaker Manuel Villar pero binanggit niya na, sa nabanggit na bilang, 4,872 guro lang ang kayang tanggapin at pasuwelduhin ng pamahalaan dahil sa kakulangan ng pondo. Bunga nito, kukulangin pa ng 45,080 guro ang mga paaralang pampubliko.

Imunungkahi niya ang paglahok ng mas marami pang babae sa pamahalaan.

Ayon naman kay Isabela Rep. Heherson Alvarez, mahigit 300 Pilipina ang nagtutungo at nagtatrabaho sa ibang bansa araw-araw.

Pero sinabi niya na dumami ang bilang ng mga Pilipina na nasadlak sa prostitusyon sa ibayong-dagat.

[Summary] => No formidable opposition is seen to challenge Las Piñas Mayor Vergel "Nene" Aguilar in the coming elections. The Commission on Elections (Comelec)-Las Piñas office said yesterday that no one has yet to file a certificate of candidacy for the city mayoralty and vice mayoralty elections.

Aguilar had soundly thrashed his challenger, Ben Gonzales, in the last mayoral race with a margin of more than 100,000 votes. Vice Mayor Luis Bustamante’s chances of reelection is also seen to be a cinch.

Sinabi ni Villar na, sakaling mapatunayang bunga ng "nakaw na yaman" ang naturang mga mansion, dapat na agad itong ipagbili gaya ng ginawa sa mga mamahaling sasakyan ng mga opisyal ng pamahalaan.

Eduardo Gullas parried suggestions that he is "scrambling to get on board" the erstwhile opposition coalition, now the administration bandwagon.

Gullas said in a press conference the other day that there is no headlong rush on his part in the wake of the sudden change in leadership because he had become part of a "de facto opposition coalition" even before the impeachment trial of ousted President Joseph Estrada began.

Roces [Summary] => The impeachment trial is a first in many ways. It is not only the first impeachment trial in the Philippines but in all of Asia. And it is the very first Philippine trial that was literally witnessed by the whole nation from beginning to end. Everyone was saying that there would be trouble if the senator-judges based their decision not on the evidence presented but on partisan considerations. But no one anticipated that it would end way ahead of schedule.

Sinabi ni Villar na dapat mahigit sa 60 sentimos ang rollback para tumugma sa ibinaba ng pandaigdigang presyo ng krudo.

Ayon kay Joe Concepcion ng Consumer Price Watch, dapat P1.20 ang ibaba ng lokal na presyo ng langis.

Ito ang nabatid sa isang miyembro ng panel na si Misamis Oriental Rep. Oscar Moreno na nagpaliwanag na ginawa nila ang desisyon dahil sa pagtanggi ng defense panel at ng Senado na magsagawa ng ocular inspection sa mga sinasabing magagarang mansion ng Pangulo na tinitirhan umano ng mga kalaguyo nito.
