Senate minority calls for de Lima’s freedom

Church leaders and peace advocates welcomed the pronouncement of Pres. Rodrigo Duterte to resume the peace talks between the government and communists after months of uncertainties following its cancellation.

Dozens of fighting cocks worth hundreds of thousands of pesos were mysteriously killed in Barangay Kauswagan recently but the city veterinarian suspects a huge rodent could be responsible for the deaths of these gamefowls.

Activists and rights defenders went around the city on Monday to remove posters that tagged them as “human rights violators” and “berdugo” (butchers), which they deemed is a threat to silence their advocacy with the Anti-Terror Act in effect.
