THANK YOU P'NOY FOR WINNING AGAINST
ROBBER POLITICIANS AND GIVING
THE PHILIPPINE NATION BACK TO ITS LAWFUL OWNERS:
THE FILIPINO PEOPLE.
"Do you want the corrupt held accountable? So do I. Do you want to see the end of wang-wang, both on the streets and in the sense of entitlement that has led to the abuse that we have lived with for so long? So do I. Do you want to give everyone a fair chance to improve their lot in life? So do I."
"I say to those who would lead us astray: if you will further disadvantage the poor, do not even think about it. If all you would do is to fill your own pockets, do not even think about it. If it is not for the benefit of the Filipino people, do not even think about it."
"If we ignore the crimes of the past, they will continue to haunt us. And if we do not hold people accountable, then they will do it again and again."
"To those of you who would turn back the tide of reform: you will not succeed."

AND NOW THERE ARE TWO! New in 2012, our publishers have another edition (see graphic below right) that's of special interest to Filipino students - this time sponsored by Santa Rosa Magazine.
It features Jose Rizal's famous non-fiction classic "The Philippines A Hundred Years Hence" and uses Angel Tugado's short fiction story "F3 Filipino Feelgood Factor" as a modern lead-in to compare with Rizal's amazingly perceptive predictions 120 years ago. This bundle includes Rizal's additional Defence that was ignored by the Spanish court martial and the Farewell Address that he wrote 15 days before he was executed by the Spanish occupying forces, who not only banned this from release to the Philippine people but buried his body secretly in an unmarked grave to prevent even his family from knowing where he was.
If you need it, clicking the above icon gets you the free Adobe Reader, and this Philippine-oriented e-book is also FREE. You can download it from Santa Rosa Magazine.

We have as many female readers and communicators as men, so no need to accuse
us of being sexist when we can't resist photos like the above. The truth is they make
both sexes feel good, and feeling good is what we're about. Isn't it what all human life
is really about? We believe that God wants every one of us - without exception - to
feel good, be happy, and enjoy life on our planet. This doesn't mean selfishness.
It means we are all responsible for each other's happiness as well as our own.

FURTHER GOOD NEWS FOR FILIPINOS
LAST YEAR (2011) the International Labour Organization passed a new treaty giving protection to 53 million domestic workers all over the world, many thousands of whom are Philippine OFWs, giving them equal conditions to other workers and equal support if they are personally abused or their internationally agreed working conditions are not met. Government statistics show that around 9 million Filipinos work overseas and their monthly remittances from every corner of the globe form the foundation of our country's strong and stable economy.
Also it was announced by Cebu Pacific's President and CEO Lance Gokongwei that the Philippines' most successful airline had just placed the "biggest aircraft order ever made by a Philippine carrier". Deliveries of 30 Airbus A321neos and 7 Airbus A320s will start in 2015, augmenting the 18 A320s already on order for delivery starting this year, and the company has an option for 10 more A321neos which can carry more people and fly further than the A320s. Mr. Gokongwei said: "The A320 Family has played a key role in enabling us to build an efficient, profitable, value-based business. The 220-seater A321neo will be a game changer for Cebu Pacific. We will be able to serve cities in Australia, India and northern Japan." Airbus is itself an inspiring success story that began in 1967 when government ministers from Britain, France and Germany met in London to launch a European consortium for development of the A300 and compete with the Americans who then held more than 80 per cent of the world market. Today it's a large, complex, high-tech operation based at Toulouse, France, and it now consistently captures about half of all commercial airliner orders.
