The man is a phenomenon. Alfredo Lim is a tiger aprowl in the jungle. His eyes
are slits of glowing coal in the dark, seeing everything. A slow snarl slithers
out of a guttural throat and the whiskers flare and stiffen. Somewhere the
bushes stir. A right paw suddenly stabs the air. This is showtime for the new
secretary of the interior and local governments as he goes back to an old act
-- spray-painting the houses of suspected drug pushers and drug lords. As Fred
Lim works that red spray, he seeks to put the curse of God and Cain on the
offender. As drama, it is superb.
