The immoral contraceptives
Bravo for such a well-written article!
(“Population increase is down,” April 18) There’s nothing like
spelling out the truth with statistics to boot.
While the prophets of doom and gloom, the
pernicious population control advocates among media and government
sectors, are spewing out venom in favor of immoral artificial
contraceptives, your article comes as a breath of fresh air, an
oasis in the proverbial desert.
Let us encourage the Filipino faithful to uphold
the teachings of the Catholic Church not only with regards to
contraception but other issues as well.
May God bless you and your work, Mr. Bas!

Where will the P40- billion package go?
The President has announced a P40-billion
package to support the recovery of rice toward self-sufficient
position.
It’s an essential need—but only if the P40
billion goes as directed. If it goes into the “Joc Joc” accounts
of somebody, a crisis is well on the cards.
I suggest the President appoint independent,
private sector auditors with full powers to audit the use of the
funds. Maybe then we’ll believe she truly means business in the
fight to reduce corruption.
P40 billion is the stimulus rice needs, but only
if used properly. The pockets of favored friends is not a proper
use.
