We cheer. But do we care? , Punto! Central Luzon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
WE FILIPINOS love our athletes when they win. We welcome them home in grand style. Officials line up for photographs. Politicians announce generous incentives. We call them modern-day heroes. That is the uncomfortable question raised by Alas Pilipinas captain Bryan Bagunas. In a recent report, Bagunas said some members of the national men’s volleyball team had gone without allowances since July. Some reportedly borrowed money just to attend training. There were practices when only seven or eight
When politics gets in the way of flood , Punto! Central Luzon (opens the original)

WATER DOES not care who we voted for. It does not stop at a town boundary or ask which politician we support. It simply follows gravity. So why do we keep treating floods as a political problem?

Castro said some teachers are poor examples to students and may even teach disrespect. She later explained in a press briefing that she was not blaming teachers. According to Castro, she was reminding them of the

AS FLOODWATERS rose again in Macabebe last week, the McDonaldâs branch at Primark announced its closure. More than the closing of a familiar store, it was a warning. Days earlier, many small and medium-size business establishments had already shut their doors because of the floods. For some, it meant lost sales for a few days. For others, it has meant years of losses. Some have not even recovered the money they worked so hard to invest. This is the cost of flooding that we rarely count. We cou
