I spent the last weekend of october with a youth group in the NGO i work for. It was such a renewing experience. Not that just I whiled lazily away the hours in the resort outside of Manila. I facilitated a process which was aimed to train youth leaders to handle group discussion of issues affecting young people in their respective communities. It was refreshing beca

I have been thinking whether there was a foul play in that plane crash. But I have yet to read anything about that. What would motivate them to kill him? do you have any literature you would like to share? There is a very good good about Lumumba, but Dag?

okay Admin there is a problem
It has been more than two years since I left Zambia. And these days always fill me with memories that make want to go back. It is warm there this time of the year. The last rain fell in April and the chill of June and July is replaced by a crispy dusty warm wind. The grass if not burned are brown. But the trees are exploding into foliage. Buds shoot and clothe branches stripped naked during the cold months. Hues in between deep red and green reach out and fly in the wind. But what
four US military officers are currently undergoing court litigation here in the Philippines. They are accused of gang-raping a woman nicknamed "Nicole" to protect her identity. The US army officers are under the Visiting Forces Agreement between the US and the Philippine Government after the 9/11 attacks as part of the global effort to stem terrorism. The case is bei
Yes that is how the media and different data sound now. better economy. The peso is weeks strangthening against the US dollar. The forecast by international finance organizations are upbeat. Perhaps, it is true. it is very difficult to be certain about anything these days. But even bickering among politicians seem to have abated too. Finally killed? They are tired of

In july, the memorial looks solitary. From a distance its shady pine and eucalyptus trees stand isolated amidst undulating landsacpe of burnt grass. This place is the site of the aeroplane accident on 18th September 1961, when Dag Hammarskjoeld was killed. He ,together with seven others was on a mission to bring peace to the Congo. The police offic
i live in the city. but my relatives live in a province 8 hours away from manila by bus. at the moment, the people in my place are experiencing something they thought belonged to the days of martial law. my mother sent me a text message while i was enjoying a rock music festival last night. they (not specified who) are cheking residence certificates at night and thos
sometimes, i think that tv mirrors back to us what we are collectively. the mere fact that such things can make it to national tv means there are people who watch them. currently, we have a lot of "reality" shows. maybe that is a kind of mass narcissism.
indeed! i started with a case of a child having to be brought to the hospital because of severe UTI. then i had to visit another one, a victim of physical abuse. i interviewed several children having parental problems after that. then i had to write a report for these, submit the usual requirements to our office and then make a case study. i left my house at seven thi
just thinking. why is the war on iraq still going on? when it is already declared a success? and yet terrorism has not abated. on the contrary, there seems to be more acts or attempted acts of terror. and terror groups seem to have increased. and yet the u.s. won the war according to donald rumsfeld. he has been there. but where in iraq was he? and there might even b
