Hi Edward, Here are the most important news that you need to know. In a surprise move, President Rodrigo Duterte announced on Saturday that he was retiring from politics, and his longtime aide, Sen. Bong Go, took his place as the administration’s vice presidential candidate in next year’s elections. In the past month, plenty of debates have focused on the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) — an organization that we often see in the news conducting rescue operations, rehabilitation efforts, and bloodletting events. THAT ‘R’ WORD It was a day of twists at the Commission on Elections desk for filing certificates of candidacy (COCs), where instead of President Duterte (in blue) joining the vice presidential race as earlier announced, it was his former aide and now Sen. Bong Go signing a COC for that post. Mr. Duterte also said on Saturday that he was “retiring,” reminding many about a similar statement he made in September 2015 (left photo). - GRIG C. MONTEGRANDE GUAGUA, PAMPANGA—Rhiane Baccay, 14, knows a bit of her history as a Filipino Catholic.

Anxiety over the looming climate catastrophe has become particularly pronounced among young people, according to a recent global study by a group led by the University of Bath and the Stanford Center for Innovation in Global Health. |
