No to coup
IN SPITE of recent events, not least among them the escape of ex-mutineers, Malacañang is shrugging off threats of a coup d’etat, saying that any attempts at destabilization will be futile. The Palace believes that the loyalty of around 117,000 soldiers in the country to the Arroyo administration belies the existence of a mounting coup.
Local architecture on a downhill trend
EVERYONE wants to be successful in the field that one chooses, whether it is a professional career or not. We want the best for ourselves and for our future. This is also what I try to achieve. So I took up architecture thinking that it be the right course that will lead me to my goal. But unfortunately in recent years architecture in the Philippines been going downhill. It has experienced an awful lot of problems. Local architecture, both the product and the profession, have dangerously deteriorated. This can be seen through the actual buildings completed, their quality and scale.
Res ipsa loquitur
THE FACT speaks for itself.
If the effectiveness of the Philippine Congress, the sole body authorized by the Constitution to pass laws that govern the entire country, is measured by the number of laws its members are able to pass, then 2005 deserves a special citation for unproductiveness.
