(UPDATED) 540 million pesos is a big amount. To the ordinary student, even five thousand pesos could have been a really big help.

Our student government is not set up the way it should be. And because of that, it is not functioning well, if at all.

Ang sarap sanang isipin na 'di lang taga-UP, Ateneo, o La Salle ang sumasali sa mga pulitikal na usapin.

Recognizing which school raked in the most number of medals for their hard work is fair. Declaring an “overall champion” based on a point system is not. It is problematic.

Several commodities like garlic, ginger and rice had a price hike. You may think it is not really unusual but what if I tell you that the price raise doubled the normal price?

There’s a good reason why a lot of us don’t see student politics as a “big deal”.

Let’s fight student apathy. These matters are not matters to be taken for granted but to be stood up against. Don’t you care? You should.
