This week will mark a year since the first lockdowns were implemented in the entire Luzon province due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

COVID-19: A year since

What on earth is happening at this barangay in Laguna’s first district?


Politics and the Pandemic

WE ARE now in the era of even more confusing quarantine classifications.

Flexible MECQ what?!

THE issue of historical revisionism – and what should constitute as fact – has become a very hot topic these days on social media.

Historical revisionism

LAST September, I had already talked about the sudden proliferation of colorum shuttle vans that seem to be making a killing due to the lack of public transport to the province amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

Undetected cases on the rise, too

I AM currently writing this from home, as OpinYon management has decided to operate on a “skeletal workforce” scheme after the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) status was imposed once again over Metro Manila and outlying provinces.

Another month of ECQ?

The City of San Pedro have recently passed two ordinances regulating “outside noises” such as loud mufflers on motorcycles and karaoke, especially at night. (See supplement for additional details).


Tryphanophobia and COVID-19

REMEMBER what I tackled last week about this barangay in Laguna's first district whose officials seem hell-bent on filing charges against each other while COVID-19 cases are on the rise?

Disgraceful conduct

I remember a story I once read about a monk who encountered a sick woman who, due to political reasons, does not want to be hospitalized.

On community pantries

I WOULD like to call out those no-good SOBs who are reportedly playing tricks on delivery guys who brave both the weather and the pandemic to bring food and services to people who were forced inside their homes.

Damn those pranksters!
