Nagsagawa ng kilos-protesta ang iba't ibang progresibong grupo ng mga kabataan sa harap ng Korte Suprema ngayong araw bilang pagkundena sa desisyon nito na ibasura ang kaso ng impeachment laban kay Sara Duterte.

Saad ng mga grupo, dapat katigan ng Korte ang sambayanang nanawagan sa pagpapatalsik ng isang korap at pahirap na opisyal kaysa sa anumang teknalidad.

Bilang simbolo ng kanilang pag tutol sa nasabing desisyon, pinunit ng mga kalahok ang mga kopya ng ruling ng Korte Suprema at giniit na hindi mananahimik ang taumbayan hangga’t hindi napapanagot ang mga nasa posisyon.

NEWS UPDATE: The emergency room at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) has exceeded its maximum patient capacity.

Life-threatening cases will still be admitted, but patients with non-emergency conditions are advised to seek treatment at other hospitals, the hospital said in a statement.

This is the second time this year that the PGH emergency room has operated beyond capacity. The first instance was due to a limited oxygen supply.

With some publications undergoing revival, they cited persistent issues on insufficient funding, staff inactivity, and the pressing need to capacitate the newsroom with strengthened reportage and sustained advocacy.

Notably, this year marks The Public Herald's first appearance on the UP Solidaridad congress. Editor-in-Chief Sofia Isabelle Bautista underscored their mandate to amplify public health campaigns through critical and community-rooted reporting.

Nitong nagdaang UP College Admissions Test (UPCAT) 2026, kinapanayam ng The Manila Collegian ang magulang at mga kasama ng mga mag-aaral na kumuha ng pagsusulit. Tampok sa kanilang mga kuwento ang kanilang mga karanasan mula preparasyon hanggang sa araw ng UPCAT, at ang halaga na makapag-aral sa pambansang pamantasan.

Magkakaiba man ng pinanggalingan, iisa ang kanilang hangarin—ang makamtan ang de-kalidad na edukasyon na nanatili pa ring pribilehiyo. Sa baluktot na sistemang wagi ang naghaharing-uri, hangad ng mga ordinaryong pamilya para sa kanilang anak ang edukasyong tunay na mapagpalaya.

Hundreds of high school students took the University of the Philippines College Admission Test (UPCAT) 2026 at UP Manila during the first day of the examination yesterday, Aug. 2.

UP Manila, along with 116 other testing centers, accommodated about 140,000 examinees during the two-day entrance examination across the country.

Amid continuing budget cuts and limited classroom capacity, the country’s only national university could only offer admission to around 10-15% of the UPCAT takers.

Last , only 17,996 or 13% were offered admission from the pool of 135,236 applicants. Of the 17,996 passers, 55% came from public schools while 45% were from private schools.

Results of the examination will be released next year and passers of the highly competitive admission test will serve as UP’s incoming freshmen for A.Y. 2026-2027.

Ang seguridad sa pagkain at nutrisyon ay makakamtan lamang kung ito ay abot-kamay, sapat, at napapanatili ilang henerasyon man ang lumipas. Ngunit, maisasakatuparan lamang ito kung ang kamay na bakal na walang habas na sumasakmal sa pagkamit nito ay mawawala.

Ngayon, higit lalo, kagyat na pangangailangan ang pagkilala na ang usapin ng pagkain at nutrisyon ay hindi natatapos sa pagsugpo ng iba’t ibang mukha ng macronutrient and micronutrient deficiency sa Pilipinas. Tungo sa tuluyang pagsugpo nito, kinakailangang suportado ang pagsasaka at pangingisda sa bansa kung saan malayang nakakapagtanim at nakakalaot ang sino man gamit ang mga makabagong kagamitan at teknolohiya.

Sa mga ganitong pagbabago, hindi nasasayang ang yaman ng Pilipinas para sa iilan lamang ngunit nagiging rekado ito sa pagbuo ng kalasag na poprotekta sa bayan upang maabot ang ganap na pag-usbong ng masa.

In this year's much-awaited UP College Admission Test (UPCAT), may the future Iskolars ng Bayan be reminded of the commitment that bears the heaviest weight more than any type of prestige—the call to serve the Filipino masses.

Each step that every Iskolar takes toward their dreams is an uphill battle to build an emancipating society and advance the quality of life of ordinary Filipinos.

Now more than ever, the honor of learning in UP’s halls demands the courage to rise for causes greater than oneself.
