Understandably, government spokesmen are trying to downplay events of the past
few days. That may just be  the thing that will erode confidence. While these
recent man-made disasters shouldn't be made bigger than life, government must
not make people think these are anything but serious.

How can the police authorities, for instance, say that the Glorietta and
Megamall incidents are not related to the hostilities in Mindanao? They don't
know that for sure. At least, not at the time they were asked, which was a few
minutes after the incidents happened.
