Outdoing Marcos
By BENJIE OLIVEROS
MANILA — It is the State of the Nation Address once again. The true state of the country is again the subject of debates. Surely, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo would boast about the economic growth and its supposed success in shielding the economy from the impact of the world economic and financial crisis, the infrastructure projects the government was able to finish such as the Clark to Subic highway, and, probably, its peace overtures with the National Democratic Front of the Philippines and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. And as of this writing, Malacañang has issued a statement saying that Arroyo’s state of the nation address would change the impression that she has “questionable designs or plans in office.”
