A short article on
how former Miss Universe Irene Saez did good as a mayor of the Venezuelan town
of Chacao.
More significant is
the article “APEC: Of Trade Liberalization and Parity Returning” (pp. 12-13),
which is an essay on the bad effects brought about by economic globalization on
a country ill-equipped and unprepared like the Philippines.
Today, in the Cyberage, Internet access in the Philippines is one of the most expensive in the world, but the second slowest in terms of speed. Imagine, it took me half-an-hour to upload this post. So, how can a “snail” compete in the global market of “cheetahs” and “quarter horses?” This is just one casing point.

“The LORD has told
you, human, what is good; He has told you what He wants from you: to do what is
right to other people, love, being kind to others, and live humbly, obeying
your GOD..... Can I forgive people who cheat others with wrong weights and
scales..... The earth will be ruined for the people who live in it because of
their deeds.” – Micah 6:8, 11 and 7:13, The
Everyday Bible, New Century Version.
