October 17, 2010

A typhoon named Juan took the center-stage in the Philippine Daily Inquirer Front Page today.


The main headline ('Juan' roars to N. Luzon) is a weather report with very positive news on the Aquino Government's readiness. Aquino +1.

The other news today:

Maria Paz: A love story to end all love stories - a special feature on a rich person who recently died, which purpose of the feature is unclear.

House OKs Aquino’s P1.6-T budget for reform programs - a railroad of a budget reported as having gone through tedious scrutiny in House of Representatives, obviously positive to the administration. Aquino +1.

Lea Salonga: ‘Imagine’ a world without hunger - a report on our very own and world renowned stage actress Lea Salonga accepting an appointment from the UN.

Why do we have to be poor? Kids ask, wish for food, books, schooling - more reports on the UN MDG and the Philippines lagging on its promises.

Pointers: How to weather typhoons - a list of what to do and what not to do in case of typhoons and flooding.

The scores:
Aquino: 2
