Very true Arthur.
World oil prices are not something over which the Aquino administration have any control
but the high price of oil has a knock on effect on food,transport,lpg costs etc. Many
Filipinos find these increases hard to absorb and have no safety net. I sense a growing
dissatisfaction in the youth of the country who perceive the President to be uncaring and
out of touch. There are almost daily protests and there is a new fad "noynoying"
The impeachment trial is dragging on (9th week now) and important issues are sidelined.
The stock market is at an all time high but this is of no consolation to the millions who are
impoverished.
Interesting times ahead
