A bit of correction on History:
I read a little bit about Filipino history last night and wanted to set some things straight. Apparently I was way off on say that there was a Prime Minister in the Philippines. It is a democracy, so the leader of the nation is the President. Currently, the president is a Female (the second in the short history of the country). There were never any military coups to take over the government. I had briefly read that there was martial law instituted, which is true, during the 1980’s in fear that the he was not being well-liked by his country and was worried the opposing political party would beat him in election (so, like any good president, he ensured his position by instituting martial law… good idea, right?)…
