Tony Meloto's Statements Degraded Women

The University of Hawaii Center for Philippine Studies has just slammed Gawad Kalinga founder Tony Meloto for his alleged degrading remarks about women in a speech he delivered during an anniversary event there last April 2015.

Honesty Beats Experience Anytime of the Day

Senator Grace Poe made it clear that she believes quality of service and honesty and not length of service should be the basis in judging a public servant.

And why not? Experienced leaders were elected in the past, but what happened to the Philippines after that? From Ferdinand Marcos to Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, nothing good came out of their terms. Instead of pulling the country out of the poverty quagmire, these -so-called 'experienced' Presidents only drag the country deeper into an economic nightmare.

This Fat Model Is Just Naive

Missouri-born model Tess Holliday may have grab a couple of spaces in the news lately after she the plus-size model signed with a major modeling agency, but it doesn't mean anything. Unlike what she may be thinking, demand for her services won't be high any time soon.

Michigan Lawmakers Are Fighting Back

The Michigan House of Representatives will not go down without a fight. After several lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders (LGBTs) tried to influence them on how they should ignore their religious right, they are pushing for the passage of the bill to counter that.

Michigan lawmakers are now considering a measure that would bar local governments from enacting worker protections that are stronger than state or federal laws already on the books, including no anti-discrimination protections for a small, but noisy, group of LGBT workers.
