    Angry Slain Commandos Snubbed - A National Disgrace!

    You would think it inconceivable that the memory of the 44 valiant servicemen - massacred in defence of their nation - could be snubbed by their Commander-in-Chief ... yet, according to this article, THAT is precisely what's happened:

    http://www.tribune.net.ph/headlines/...s-pnp-awardees

    Reportedly, Aquino first ordered the mural depicting the Special Armed Forces (SAF) be removed from the wall of the Philippine National Police Academy. And now, the names of three troopers due to be awarded recognition for bravery (one posthumously as well as two survivors) have been delisted at the President's behest.

    Hmm, ... are members wary of passing comment(s) about the patently obvious shortcomings of Malacanang's incumbent - or the current Philippines' Administration - for fear of any imagined repercussions?

    Probably something to do with sweeping this sorry incident under the carpet

    ... probably it's the only logical explanation; after all ... ... an incident of such horrendous MAGNITUDE isn't going to reflect too well on his tenure of office.
