Tigsik
Tigsik ko ining buhay ta digdi sa kinaban, Kun sagkod noarin kita dai ta naaaraman. Kaya dapat preparado kun kita babawian, Kan buhay na sa Diyos sinublian sana man. Tigsik ko ining garo cancer sa sosyodad ta, Ini baga na haloy nang problema sa droga. Si mga ugat kaini biyong naglalangkaba na, Ta an nararamalan si mga sanga man sana. Tigsik ko an buhay kan iba sa mga pulitiko, Na namumugtak nang pirmi sa mga piligro. Pirmi na may huma sa buhay kan mga iniho. Hali sa mga kalab

EDITORIAL: Broken Trust
FORMER Ombudsman and Supreme Court Associate Justice Conchita Carpio-Morales delivered more than a commencement speech at the 115th graduation exercises of the University of the Philippines-Diliman. She delivered a warning. At a time when institutions are under scrutiny and public trust continues to erode, her message about “paggalang” or respect struck at the very heart of the nation’s democratic crisis. Her words reflected the growing frustration of many Filipinos who witne

Trial, Trust, and Tribulation
Finally, after completing, returning, and starting over again, it has begun. Its path to the Senate floor was anything but straightforward, pushing through only after a rollercoaster ride of legal hurdles, including a Supreme Court ruling that declared the initial House Articles of Impeachment unconstitutional, which subsequently forced the Senate to archive them. This moment is genuinely historic: VP Duterte is the first sitting Philippine Vice President to be impeached. Wh

Subpoena Duces Tecum, Testificandum Etcetera
It was in 2000 when these legal terms suddenly became part of our everyday vocabulary. Before then, I had never imagined that ordinary Filipinos would be discussing Latin phrases over breakfast or hearing them repeatedly on the evening news. Then came the impeachment trial of former President Joseph Estrada, and almost overnight subpoena duces tecum and subpoena ad testificandum became familiar expressions. We may not have fully understood what they meant, but we heard them s

The Last Time
We celebrate our firsts. Our first day in school. Our first paycheck. Our first love. Our first child. Our first home. We take photographs. We buy cakes. We mark calendars. We call them milestones because we know they matter. But life is strangely silent about our lasts. No one tells us, "This is the last time." There is no countdown. No ceremony. No farewell. One ordinary moment simply becomes the last. When was the last time your father carried you? The last time you played
