                    [Summary] => The "Taray Queen" strikes again.


Although President Arroyo tried to control the tone of her voice, her display of presidential temper sent Department of Education (DepEd) officer-in-charge Fe Hidalgo rushing back to her office after a dressing down delivered during a Cabinet meeting.


The President was not happy with Hidalgo’s report that the classroom shortage for this year stood at 6,832, and asked the secretary to leave the Palace and review her supposedly wrong data.

Speaking at the weekly Fernandina Media Forum in AA Cebu BBQ in Greenhills, San Juan, Pimentel said: "I think that 1017 really freezes the right of people to really exercise freedom of speech. Freedom of speech is really important. Authoritarian rulers, when they begin their mission to exterminate freedom, they begin with the media."

Although President Arroyo lifted the state of national emergency last Friday, government pressure on the media — particularly radio and television — remained and moves against the media could have a lasting chilling effect, the journalists said.

The outcome of 4.1 percent for the three months to September was well below private sector forecasts for gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 4.3 to five percent and the 6.2 percent registered a year earlier.

The cut weakened the peso and widened spreads on Philippine sovereign bonds but the ratings agency maintained its "Ba1" rating on foreign debt, leaving it one notch below investment grade and one higher than those assigned by rival agencies.

Bunye said Mrs. Arroyo was very grateful for the vote of support which Sin expressed to First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo during a visit to the archbishop’s Villa San Miguel residence in Mandaluyong City on Friday.

Bunye said Mrs. Arroyo was very grateful for the vote of support which Sin expressed to First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo during a visit to the archbishop’s Villa San Miguel residence in Mandaluyong City on Friday.
