OP-ED: LTO needs to move its driving seminars online
2.18.22
Those that frequently drive from home to work or school know that the country’s roads are not exactly the safest places to drive on. This is proven by annual road accident statistics over the past couple of years. There’s no shortage of video proof either on social media.

The seminar can be chopped into shorter videos that an applicant has to click on and watch to the end manually. Another option is daily Zoom or Google Meets seminars. This way, and by requiring cameras to be on, the LTO can verify that applicants are indeed paying attention.
These are just some of the ways the requirement can be met without the risk of spreading the virus. All it takes is a little resourcefulness.

COMMENT:
The problem with the government agencies is they prefer to have income out of these seminars than help people get assistance for them to get decent jobs and livelihood especially those who are not educated enough to land into a higher level working statues .

EDITORIAL –Redeeming the promise of Edsa
A shocking reminder that the 1986 Edsa People Power Revolution remains an unfinished business was the unabashed playing in some campaign rallies of “Bagong Lipunan,” the anthem of authoritarian President Ferdinand Marcos’ New Society, which gave way to a brutal and plunderous martial law regime.

Obviously, so much needs to be done and undone, so many harsh lessons need to be learned, with the May 2022 elections a likely point for another reboot. Choosing the country’s next leaders with a lens calibrated to Edsa’s promise of an inclusive democracy, accountable leaders, and participative governance might yet redeem us. Voting out the prospect of another martial law might well be our version of Edsa this year.

EDITORIAL-– Power of the people
February 25, 2022
The 1986 revolt showed the power of a people united behind a common cause, even if it seemed like mission impossible. Seeing how people power put an end to 20 years of authoritarian rule in the Philippines, similar movements for freedom were staged around the world, with equally dramatic success in most cases.
There is always room for long-lasting, meaningful change. People power showed what Filipinos can achieve by rallying behind common goals. The power of the people can always be harnessed to make the nation a better place. If people power can topple an entrenched dictatorship, it can succeed in building a strong republic.

After sharing the spoil of victory, everyone are drunk of power.

EDITORIAL- Huwag sayangin ang pinagpaguran sa EDSA
Ngayon ang ika-36 na anibersaryo ng EDSA people power revolution. Mahaba na ang nilakbay mula nang mapatalsik ang diktador na si President Marcos sa Malacañang. Hindi kailan man malilimutan ang mga naganap sa EDSA. Hindi mababago ang mga nangyari sa apat na araw na tahimik na rebolusyon na nagkaisa at nagkapit-bisig ang mga tao sa harap ng Camp Crame at Camp Aguinaldo para protektahan si dating Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile at dating AFP Vice chief of Staff Fidel Ramos makaraang alisin ang suporta kay Marcos.
