A facsimile of Mr. Robert Kiyosaki’s “Why the Rich Get Richer” was posted in response to Archbishop Cruz’s current editorial column “The View” searching for an earthly elucidation with regard to the paradox or absurdity of the Philippine peso.

Voila`, Mr. Kiyosaki’s enlightenment came to the rescue however, Mr. Ceralde to avoid incomprehension please glance at Archbishop Cruz’s current article on the editorial column.

Moving on to a different topic the coastal scenery between Ilocos and Dagupan is far better even if you factor in aqua farms than the canal scenery some Asian neighbor or European country offers to the world tourist.

The Klongs or network of canals for floating market in Bangkok is smelly, dirty, and clogged with boats it will make the Pantal river look good.

Why does it work for them and not in Philippines? The answer lies in how they market the package.

And Yes, safety is a big issue in ferry service however, you have to look at the matter in a different angle. A car accident is more likely to happen everyday than a ferry boat to capsize or be hijacked by a terrorist on a yearly basis and when a ferryboat mishap happens, it is amplified by the media because of the uncommon occurrence. So a step forward is better than none.

Ms. Heidi has a point on the evacuation route, seems like she had experienced the ordeal not fun.

For now the technical working group deserves to be given the benefit of the doubt.
