Was it as good as the Republican and Democratic debates?

Round one: CDO

As this is written, the first round of presidential debates is taking place at Capitol University in Cagayan de Oro. Hosted by GMA Channel 7, the Philippine Daily Inquirer, and the Commission on Elections, four bona fide presidential candidates and one “tentative” candidate are to face off in this first ever presidential debate to be held in Mindanao. Depending on how they address the issues, this should give Mindananoans a foretaste of what to expect should anyone of them become the president.
