With all the talk on global warming, I have become more conscious of environmental concerns in my daily life. What can a single individual do in this massive campaign to save the earth? Plenty. Indeed, it is people, the collective bunch of individuals that are said to be most responsible for the environmental degradation.

They’re there for the business regardless of the politics of a country so long as it is good business to invest there. It happens that good investments in the Philippines also need good politics. Investments require a sustaining and stable environment that we cannot have if we were to continue with the presidential system.
