On The Fringes | Mentally surviving the rotten healthcare system
I spent more hours in the waiting area than in my consultations. Most of my conversations with the doctor took only 15 to 30 minutes.

Truth be Told (Again) | To make a dictator (un)necessary
Truth be Told (Again) | To make a dictator (un)necessary
On September 23, 1972, the day Martial Law was announced, Ferdinand Marcos was certain — or, at the very least, he was determined to sound like it.

Marcos Jr.’s mantra: Unity, dialogue, respect
Deafeningly silent, however, was Marcos Jr. on national security management and its criminal consequences: foremost of which is the impunity enjoyed by state security forces in perpetrating massive human rights violations, under all administrations beginning with the Marcos dictatorship.
Will the government hear the people sing?
“We call on all the concerned sectors to stand together against the continuing wave of red-tagging and terrorist-labelling and to vigorously defend freedom of expression, freedom of the press, freedom of association and the right to peaceably assemble.”
The independence they fought for
Independence of mind as well as of the Filipino nation that was yet to be was what Rizal, Bonifacio, Apolinario Mabini, and company wrote, fought and died for. And they are inextricably linked, the first being the essential condition for the achievement of the second.

Balik-Tanaw | God will carry us on eagle’s wings
It is a daunting task if we think of it without God in the equation. This call of God to discipleship today is not far more or far less formidable than in the time of the apostles. The contexts are very different but there is one constant: it is God who calls us to be laborers for his harvest. When the going gets tough, God will carry us on eagle’s wings. When faced with death, we know that it is life in God that awaits us.
Balik-Tanaw | Bruised and Broken, but Shared, and Remembered
We are just pilgrims here on earth. We are all travelers. We are just passing through this world. Our worldly existence is very much finite. Our worldly existence could not overpower time.
Balik-Tanaw | Showing love to all Gods community
The Gospel this week is another well known verse in John 3:16-18 that talks of how God so loved the world, God sent Jesus to die for our sins so that we may have eternal life. But John goes on in the following verses that are less familiar to many to say remind us that Jesus was sent to save the World not to condemn it.

Paglalakbay na naantala, salamat sa kapitalista
Kapitalismo rin ang dahilan kung bakit hindi pinapansin ang reklamo ng mga naagrabyadong pasahero. Walang pakialam ang mga negosyante sa naantalang iskedyul o maging sa buhay o kamatayang sitwasyon (kung mayroon man) ng mga pasahero. Para sa kanilang basta-basta na lang itinatakda ang pagbabago sa iskedyul ng biyahe ng mga pasahero nila, sapat na ang tokenistang paghingi ng paumanhin. Tahimik na lang sila sa kanilang pagkamal ng milyon-milyong kita (o baka naman bilyon-bilyon!).

Kung ang mensahe ni Heydarian ay hindi makita ang “independent” foreign policy dahil sa nangyari sa Reed Bank, iyon ang dapat na titulo ng artikulo.
Basura sa Philippine Collegian
Higit pa sa isang komplikadong telenobela, malinaw ang maniobra ng papaalis nang liderato ng Philippine Collegian para atakehin ang kalayaan sa pamamahayag. Sa halip na pagbutihin ang paglilingkod sa mga estudyanteng tagapaglimbag ng opisyal na publikasyon, ginugol nito ang oras para sampahan ng kaso ang tingin nila’y kaaway nila.

A portrait of the security guard as a worker
But Paray was a wounded animal lashing out against the world that hurt him. This is the difference between a worker fighting against injustice and one fighting for their class. Alchie Paray is at once every single Filipino caught in the same situation, but at the same time, he is a reminder that we must all organize ourselves against the system that allows this exploitation to manifest.

The real score on China’s imperialism
The series of deliberate neglect and turning of a blind eye to China’s continuous incursions on our economy, territory and even military speak volumes on how our very own government positions itself among other countries under China’s patronage. We have surrendered so much to China’s destructive large-scale investments that masquerade as benign, friendly relations.
