Hi there. Guo finally transferred to Pasig City jail


Dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo was transferred to the Pasig City jail on Monday after more than two weeks of detention at the PNP Custodial Center at Camp Crame -- but not before a "probable infection" in her left lung had to be ruled out first.


Presenting security camera footage taken early this month showing the abduction of activist Felix Salaveria Jr. in Albay, the human rights group Karapatan charged that his enforced disappearance and that of fellow activist James Jazmines

was a "professional operation."


Ishikawa Prefecture in Japan, which is recovering from a deadly earthquake earlier this year, was hit by a fresh catastrophe when heavy rain, said to be the biggest continuous downpour in the city's recorded history, triggered floods and landslides that killed six people.


In Lifestyle, Baguio-based contributor Elizabeth Lolarga profiles the artist-partners Kawayan De Guia and Nona Garcia and their abode in the city's Kitma Village, where the couple "keep separate studios, but their dogs join them in bed at night." 


The surprise meeting between former VP Leni Robredo and current VP Sara Duterte sent shockwaves and confounded many, writes columnist Richard Heydarian in Opinion, with the recriminations only exposing "fault lines within the genuine opposition movement."
