Patience is clearly the wrong word for Cebu Governor Hilario Davide III to use in addressing the people of Bantayan who, for one year now, have been waiting for the shelter assistance promised them by government after super typhoon Yolanda wiped out their homes and everything they had -- from loved ones to cherised dreams. Perhaps patience is even the wrong virtue to teach under the circumstances.

And so the paybacks continue. But this time, to use a term quite popular of late, this particular payback can have a very chilling effect. We refer to the appointment of lawyer Arthur Lim as the newest Comelec commissioner, replacing Grace Padaca who was not reappointed after getting bypassed again by the CA.
