MANILA, Philippines — The Palace’s defense of the Department of Trade and Industry’s (DTI) claim that a Filipino family can prepare a basic Noche Buena meal for ₱500 has drawn widespread criticism, with many saying the estimate fails to reflect current food prices.

Malacañang clarified that the ₱500 budget was not meant to represent a traditional Noche Buena spread, but a minimal meal intended for a small family of four. DTI’s price guide cites items such as budget ham at ₱170, spaghetti noodles at ₱30, and sauce at ₱48.50 as part of its suggested list.

However, consumer groups pointed out that even DTI’s sample basket can exceed ₱500, with some estimates placing the total closer to ₱520–₱530 depending on store prices. Many argued that holiday staples like cheese, fruit cocktail, and bread have significantly increased in cost this year.

Members of the Makabayan bloc called the estimate “tone-deaf,” with ACT Teachers Party-list Rep. Antonio Tinio criticizing the government for downplaying the hardships caused by inflation.

Vice President Sara Duterte dismissed the ₱500 estimate, saying her personal Christmas shopping—for just spaghetti and a salad pack— already costs ₱2,100, roughly the same as her office’s holiday food packs.

Some religious leaders weighed in as well. Antipolo Bishop Ruperto Santos Santos emphasized in his message that Noche Buena is not a time for scrimping or settling for less, but a moment of celebration and generosity offering our best to God and to one another.

For many Filipinos, the ₱500 Noche Buena debate has come to symbolize a wider gap between government assurances and the live experiences of ordinary families struggling with high prices and stagnant wages.

November 27, 2025 — U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday that his administration will institute a "permanent pause" in migration from what he called "Third World countries" in the wake of a deadly attack near the White House that has reignited fierce national debate over immigration and national security.

The announcement comes one day after a National Guard member was fatally shot while on duty near the presidential residence. Investigators have identified the suspect as an Afghan national who entered the United States in 2021 under a humanitarian resettlement program. Officials said the investigation is ongoing, but the incident has already prompted swift political reactions and renewed scrutiny of past immigration policies.

In a lengthy statement on his social media platform, Trump defended the drastic move, saying the current immigration system is overwhelmed and needs time to "reset." He wrote: "I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to recover fully, terminate all of the millions of Biden illegal admissions, including those signed by Sleepy Joe Biden's autopen, and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States."

The comments by the president mirror long-standing criticisms he has repeatedly levied at the previous administration, which he says allowed large numbers of migrants into the country without proper vetting. Trump framed the new policy as a necessary step to prevent similar attacks, and hinted that additional actions targeting border enforcement and visa processing may follow.

The proposed halt to migration would represent one of the most far-reaching restrictions on immigration by the Trump administration so far. It is still unclear which countries would be affected, how long the restrictions will stay, and how they would impact already pending resettlement or visa applications. Advocacy groups and civil rights organizations are also expected to file legal challenges once the policy is officially issued.

Critics argue that the administration is exploiting a tragedy to justify unduly broad restrictions that could inequitably penalize migrants based on their nationality and not according to actual risk. Immigration advocates said such a blanket ban threatens to tarnish America's humanitarian commitments and worsen diplomatic relations with countries affected.

But supporters of the president say the policy is a necessary measure to protect national security. A number of Republican lawmakers have expressed support for Trump's action and called for quick action to fix what they describe as a "broken" immigration system. Meanwhile, as the investigation unfolds, the attack near the White House has heightened tensions over U.S. immigration policy — a topic that has long dominated Trump's presidency and reverberates through every corner of political discourse.

Further information about the implementation of the migration pause is expected in the coming days.

“Dili ko mag-AI oy kay basin wrong info ma-provide”. But honestly, AI is not something we should ignore. We can’t rely on it all the time, but we also need to use it in our daily life, not just in school. In this modern world, AI can really help us study, work, and get things done faster, but we need to know how to use it the right way so it helps us, and not just become something we depend on.

A study called “Uniqueness neglect on consumer resistance to AI” (2023) says that AI can fail if it doesn’t think about people’s differences. If AI treats everyone the same, people might not trust it or even want to use it. This shows that AI works best when it considers what each person really needs.

Ignoring AI because it seems new or scary can make us miss chances to learn or grow. Using AI properly, on the other hand, can really help. For example, in hospitals, AI can help doctors spot illnesses faster, but the final decision on the doctor. In schools, AI can help students learn at their own pace and help teachers plan lessons. In journalism, AI can help gather info or organize ideas, but humans is the one who decide what to do.

So, what does “Integrate, not neglect AI” mean? It means we should use AI as a tool to help us, not to replace us. We also need to be responsible and careful when using it. Avoiding AI completely can slow us down.

Learning to use AI can make us better at skills like checking facts, organizing research, and exploring new ideas. But we still need to think for ourselves. Using AI responsibly is all about balancing technology and human judgment.

In short, AI is a tool, not a threat. If we use it the right way, it can help us reach our goals, learn more, and make work easier. Neglecting AI only slows us down. By integrating it into our daily life while keeping human values, we can make AI a helpful partner in school, work, and life.

The recent allegations by former Ako Bicol party-list representative Zaldy Co have exposed what appears to be deep-rooted corruption in the Philippines. Co's admission of facilitating ₱100 billion in budget insertions—allegedly under the direction of President Bongbong Marcos—raises serious questions about the administration's commitment to transparency and good governance.

The administration’s silence in response to these claims is telling. Rather than addressing the issue head-on, it appears intent on downplaying or sidestepping the controversy, perhaps hoping it will quietly fade over time. However, the Filipino people are not easily deceived. They continue to demand accountability, honesty, and justice.

Co’s assertion that he possesses proof marks a significant development. These allegations must be thoroughly examined through a fair, independent, and transparent investigation. The legal process must be allowed to run its full course, with all parties held accountable should the evidence warrant it.

The Marcos administration now faces a defining choice: take a stand against corruption or remain complicit in the very systems it claims to reform. The public is watching closely. It is time for the administration to break its silence and confront the allegations directly.

Institutions such as the Office of the Ombudsman and the Sandiganbayan must be empowered with the resources and independence necessary to investigate and prosecute those responsible. The Filipino people deserve more than a government tainted by corruption and nepotism. Real change begins with holding those in power accountable for their actions.

The outcome of this case will serve as a major test of the nation’s resolve to fight corruption and uphold the rule of law. It will also reveal whether the administration is truly willing to heed the public’s demands and prioritize the welfare of the people over political alliances or personal interests. All eyes are now on the government, waiting to see whether it will rise to the challenge.

As the nation waits with bated breath for the next developments, one thing is clear: the Co scandal has opened a floodgate of questions about the state of governance in the Philippines. It has also exposed a tangled web of political maneuvering that will be difficult to unravel. Will the administration seize this moment to prove its commitment to integrity and accountability, or will it continue to stonewall and protect its own?

Only time will tell. But one thing remains certain: the Filipino people will not allow this issue to fade quietly into the background. They will continue to demand answers, accountability, action, and meaningful change. The government must decide how it will respond.

MANILA, Philippines — The International Criminal Court (ICC) Appeals Chamber on Friday denied former president Rodrigo Duterte’s request for interim release, ordering that he remain in detention as proceedings on his crimes against humanity case move forward.

In a unanimous ruling, the five-member Chamber upheld an earlier decision by Pre-Trial Chamber I, which found that releasing Duterte would pose risks to witnesses, evidence, and the overall integrity of the investigation into killings linked to his drug war.

The Appeals Chamber rejected all three arguments raised by Duterte’s defense, including claims that he posed no risk, that proposed security guarantees were sufficient, and that his age and health merited humanitarian consideration.

Duterte’s lawyer, Nicholas Kaufman, said the defense plans to file a renewed plea after court-appointed medical experts submit their assessment on Duterte’s fitness to stand trial on December 5.

The Duterte family said they accept the ruling “with peaceful hearts,” while Malacañang stated that it respects the ICC’s decision.
Duterte has been detained at the ICC Detention Centre in The Hague for nearly nine months over alleged crimes against humanity related to the government’s anti-drug campaign.

𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗥𝗬 | 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻
‎
‎Burden.
A word I’ve never wanted to wear,
Not since I breathed this heavy air.
Not now, not here, not as a student still,
Afraid of grades that test my will.
‎Because marks are all I seem to hold,
‎To pay for faults I’ve left untold.
‎A child in a house that’s bursting wide,
Where love and labor never hide.
‎Eight of us, dreams stacked high,
‎And they give their all—no questions why.
‎
‎I breathed much easier when fate was kind
A quiet miracle I thought I’d never find.
A gift, a light, a silent grace,
That helped us all keep up the pace.
But now I fear it’s fading fast,
And haunting thoughts begin to last:
Will I again become the weight
That slows them down, that seals their fate?
Can I go on if they feel pain?
Will all their trust be lost in vain?
‎
‎At night, when silence fills the air,
My thoughts grow loud—too much to bear.

I ache for things that slipped away,
No warning, no goodbye to say.
And deep within, I’ve come to see:
I fear becoming what burdens me.
To those I love, I’d never dare
To be the cause of wear and tear.
‎
‎But now I rise, though knees may shake,
With every word and breath I take.
With every tear I choose to hide,
I walk with courage by my side.
I am not a burden… maybe now.
But I’ll break free, I’ll show them how.
I’ll climb, I’ll fight, I’ll stand,
I’ll shine— This story, this strength,
This voice is mine.
