I have a headset glued to my ears. That bloody Antonio Trillanes IV struck again. Can't help but think, this guy seems to have a penchant for staging coups in upscale Hotels. Four years ago along with the Magdalo they staged the Oakwood Mutiny. Now after storming out of a Makati Trial Court and calling for GMA to step down, he sits with them at the Manila Peninsula Hotel. What's next? Makati Shangrila?
Right now I am listening to online AM radio broadcasts and could hear fires shot, reports on tear gases at the lobby. I am reading news on guests leaving hastily...NEWS
I do admire people with a burning passion to change the government for the better. Initially I did admire his guts to express his discontent although his way of expression is not something I approved of. Even as a student I have not advocated petty rallies and dramas such as this because I believe there are other effective ways of getting a problem solved. And walking on the streets and disrupting peace. As time goes by I see Trillanes as childish and impulsive and hot-tempered. I don't see anything good coming out of this second coup attempt. Only the fact that our tourism and economy will once again go down. I am no GMA supporter but seriously I believe she has done her job the best that she can. Show me a an honest, clean and brilliant Filipino politician who is fit to head our nation right now. I'm racking my brains to find one. But definitely Trillanes IV won't be one of them.
