Philippine news

PNoy has declared today a national day of mourning for those killed in the terrorist bus bombing...but now more problems: Ten construction workers killed in accident.

and a less flashy headline suggests he is going after corruption (may not succeed: for example, a famous radio personality with a lot of evidence on the rich and famous was just killed in Palawan).

Testimony about stealing from soldiers salaries, and giving it to the big shots of the army... and the Senate is probing into the story that admitted kickbacks to the bigshot's families were ignored.

but there is some good news: Now the Chinese are coming here to learn English.

Baguio is full of Koreans learning English, many of Korea's schools have Filippino teachers of English, and of course many students from overseas come to our good universities to study because of their high quality.

and from NEJournal: the Three Kings Fiesta.
