Pork barrel probe fails test of probity and gravitas

BEFORE the nation gets deluded by the proposal in Congress for the renaming of the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport in Clark-Angeles, as the Cory Aquino International Airport (thereby turning our two international airports into his-and-hers aviation terminals), I submit that the Philippine Senate would do better to focus first its attention and energies on a more popular renaming project.

This is the proposal of some journalists and bloggers that the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee be officially renamed as the “Yellow Ribbon Committee.”
