What is going on with the Philippines? I go to the Cogon Market in Cagayan de Oro City and I see Filipinos herded inside a rope enclosure docile as lambs waiting to buy NFA rice. Are Filipinos no better than animals? The brilliant Arroyo administration which has claimed success for the exchange rate of the peso against the dollar is finally laying siege on the dignity of the Filipino. Does no one see the irony? People are now buying pilit or malagkit, gelatinous rice used for puto maya and suman and mixing this with rice because it is cheaper. Rice at 54 pesos!!
