An Pagtataksil sa Agom, Dai Awtomatikong Psychological Violence
Nagdesisyon an Korte Suprema na an pagtataksil sa agom o marital infidelity, bako awtomatikong psychological violence sa irarom kan Section 5(i) kan Republic Act No. 9262 o Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act.

Kinakaipohan na patunayan kan prosekusyon na an akusado nakagibo nin mga akto na maituturing na psych

Tigsik
Tigsik ko an mga nagsasapo nin makukulog, Ta sa mga kamatean, kahilangan uminabot, Humagad na tawad asin sa Diyos dumulok, Siya sana makakabulong sa indo nanggayod. Tigsik ko an mga hobenes, mga estudyante, Na an iba sa inda nagigin na mga bayolente Nangungulog, manggagadan na an mga ini, Siisay dapat basulon sa siring na nangyayari? Tigsik ko an mga nadadalan sa celfon o sa t v, Sa mga makaurag na drama, sa mga teleserye. Maraot na epekto sa isipan an mga nangyayari, Kaya da

EDITORIAL: Shattered Sanctuaries
SCHOOLS are supposed to be the safest places for children after their own homes. They are where young minds are shaped, values are formed, friendships are built, and dreams begin to take flight. Yet recent events have cast a dark shadow over that ideal, raising a disturbing question that every parent now has reason to ask: What is happening to our schools? The heart-breaking death of an eight-year-old girl in Davao City is the latest reminder that our classrooms are no longer

Talk About Irony
Wait — former House Speaker Martin Romualdez is under investigation by the Office of the Ombudsman regarding a multi-billion-peso flood-control corruption scandal? That news immediately brought back memories. I remember something about Martin Romualdez and floods. It was late 2024, shortly after the floodwaters from Typhoon Kristine had subsided. My colleagues and I joined massive crowds packing the Jesse M. Robredo (JMR) Coliseum in Naga City. We were there to receive a gove

BBM’s 5th SONA: Plus-es, Negas and Challenges ahead
Last July 22, I wrote a column entitled “Nakuryente.” I never imagined that barely a week later, electricity would become one of the most applauded issues in President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s fifth State of the Nation Address (SONA). The title “Nakuryente” was inspired by our own experience. At our family’s store in Canaman, our monthly electric bill suddenly jumped from around ₱5,000 to more than ₱14,000, even though the business was not yet operating at full capacity. I reme

What Makes a Story Immortal?
The reviews have been pouring in ever since The Odyssey hit theaters last week. Some have called it Christopher Nolan’s masterpiece. Others found it visually stunning but emotionally hollow. One comment making the rounds online simply read: “Three hours. Zero bathroom breaks. Zero regrets.” Whether the film deserves the praise—or the criticism—is a discussion for movie reviewers. What interests me is something far more remarkable. How is it that a story first told nearly thre

The Trial of an Impeached Vice President
Vice President Sara Duterte stands before the Senate not as a candidate, not as a political rival, and not as the daughter of a former President, but as an impeached constitutional officer. That distinction is not merely descriptive. It is constitutional. The House of Representatives has exercised its constitutional power to impeach and has transmitted four Articles of Impeachment to the Senate. Its role has now changed. Through its designated prosecutors, the House must pres

An Naagrabyadong Agom sana an Puwedeng Magfile nin Kasong Adultery
Sa irarom kan Article 344 kan Revised Penal Code, an kasong adultery dai puwedeng magpadagos kun an reklamo bako mismo naifile kan naagrabyadong agom. Sa sarong bagong desisyon, Chua-Chiba vs Chiba and Llona, piglinaw liwat kan Korte Suprema na dai sapat na an kaso ifile kan authorized representative. An pagfile kan reklamo sa adultery sarong personal na karapatan na dai puwedeng ipasa sa ibang tawo. Base sa Korte Suprema, an legal requirement na ini pigtakda kan batas bilang

EDITORIAL: Constitutional Accountability
THE first several days of Vice President Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial have left many Filipinos wondering whether the proceedings are moving at all. Objections have multiplied, legal arguments have stretched for hours, and the central question—whether the Vice President remains fit to hold office—appears buried beneath procedural debates. The frustration is understandable. Yet the delays are not necessarily evidence that the process is broken. They are, in many ways, the c

The False Peace of the Heart
Have you heard? You have probably come across the news on social media over the weekend. This latest case of a female teacher found dead in her home is the recent cause of shock in our community. This reminds me of an incident last year in which the bodies of two sisters were discovered in separate locations across Naga City. Both were found with severe hack wounds to their necks and arms, in neighboring barangays. A few months before this, a male college student was stabbed
