| | Bohol:
safe from tremors | | | The
province is safe from earthquakes as it is not within the so-called Philippine
Fault Zone, according to Engr. Jose Eucel Talisic, science research analyst of
the city-based Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).
The statement
was issued yesterday after a mild earthquake hit the seawaters between Anda, Bohol
and Southern Leyte at 2:43 a.m. Monday, with no damage to properties in any part
of the province.
"Bohol is safer compared to other provinces which are
within the Philippine Fault Zone," the Philvocs official categorically said.

| | "NO"
TO PCGG-MARCOSES
COMPROMISE DEAL | | | After
20 years of legal struggle, the PCGG (Philippine Commission on Good Government),
is throwing in the towel and wants to do an "amicable" compromise with
the Marcoses. The latter has been accused of plundering the nation's wealth estimated
at a whooping US$5 to US$ 10 billion.
Aside
from the 500 ill-gotten wealth cases, the compromise agreement will have to mean
the erasure of the criminal charges lodged against the Marcoses.

state a categorical, emphatic "No" - in disagreement to the current
direction of compromise pursued by PCGG Camilo Sabio and arrogant PCGG Commissioner
Ricardo Abcede whose name sounds like an unfinished alphabet. For five good reasons.
