But the pattern we have traced—from STAND UP's 2023 admissions of systemic sexual harassment, to the USC's catastrophic mishandling of the Jobert Pillas rape case, to the steady rebranding from Laban Kabataan to Sulong Tayo!—tells us that it is more than mere political spin.

Mabigat ang kanilang mga punto: posibleng pumalo sa ₱120 kada litro ang diesel, umaabot sa ₱90,000 ang buwanang gastos ng mga driver, at sa kabila nito, tila patuloy ang kita ng malalaking kumpanya—umaabot pa nga sa bilyon-bilyon.

It Is Raoul Manuel’s Security Argument That Is Not Adding Up
Ang unang nawawala sa pagsusuri ni Manuel ay ang pinakaimportanteng factor sa military threat assessment: capability.

Wala pang kumpirmadong operational intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) na kayang tumama sa mga target na libu-libong kilometro ang layo tulad ng Pilipinas o m
