What happened to the matuwid na daan (straight path) call of His Excellency President Benigno Simeon (aka BS) Cojuangco Aquino III? Has it now become the makipot na daan? 

Some people fear that the government of the Philippines may soon fall. That there will be a change in the regime. The military has become restive due to the present state of affairs in this Southeast Asian country.

President Benigno Simeon Cojuangco Aquino III was supposedly stranded in Zamboanga due to a military coup threat. On the other hand, former allies are now asking the President to resign. It is bandied about that the so-called military group, Reform Officers Union or ROU that made a manifesto declaring they will fight against this administration could just be the creation of former Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. R-O-U can also sound like Ar-ro-yo. Unless the real instigator of the group wants to play with the administration.

There are questions about how the Napoles scandal was engineered; it appears that there are flaws in how the situation was handled so that in the end, Napoles gets to be identified as a Palace girl and a puppet of Malacañang and selected members of the Cabinet, notwithstanding the close link with legislators and other specific government functionaries high and low.

Absolutely, no one in his right mind will admit that the current brouhaha over the pork barrel or PDAF that ultimately surfaced the DAP of Aquino was originally planned, especially engineered to destroy a selected number of personalities, by no less than you-know-who together with Miss you-know-who-else.

The ending will be a sad one, considering the extent of anger that it generated among the people, this writer included. Heads must roll.
