Puno as Philippine President in 2010

Supreme Court Chief Justice Reynato Puno who is facing a politically motivated ouster move found many Boholanos his instant fans and supporters.

This surfaced during a random phone/text survey conducted yesterday by the top-rated weekly program "Radyo Merkado"  (7:45-10am, Saturday)  over dyRD. 

A remarkable 79.2% of the respondents even ventured to say that Puno is a "good material for the presidency."
Of those who tossed him as a presidential timber, 85% explained their opinion that "it is because the nation needs a credible, honest person to lead this nation by 2010.

"We are tired of traditional politicians whose records would indicate having been linked in one way or the other to graft and corruption," the respondents repeatedly said over the airlanes.

However, 19% of the respondents commented to say that "no matter how credible Puno is, he will be tainted with a political color once he joined the elections next year."

In fact the respondents cited that it was not a "good start" that the chief justice was endorsed to the presidency by Sen. Panfilo Lacson.

"Puno should get the endorsements from various religious and private groups because of his integerity,"  a respondent stressed.
The Integrated Bar of the Phils. (IBP-Bohol chapter) is formalizing a resolution expressing their  support for the retention of Puno as chief executive, according to lawyer Isabelo Sales, Jr., IBP-Bohol president. - source: The Bohol Chronicle

Antonio Ong Guat, the founder of Bohol Quality Store

From Sunday Post   I pay my sincerest condolences to Antonio Ong Guat, the founder of Bohol Quality Store . My family especially my late Mom owed a lot of gratitude to him. Little is known of the fact that my Mom as a school teacher, was making school teaching charts with her crude rubber printing set. I used to accompany her to Tagbilaran to buy her supplies at Bohol Quality Store, and bought her supplies direct from Ong Guat. Suki niya si Ong Guat to the point that he would attend to her when she goes to the store. In fact, nagpapautang pa siya ni Mom, which she paid when she sold her teaching materials to the new teachers. I suggest that the provincial and city governments should honor Ong Guat with a posthumous award in recognition of his efforts to be the founder of a business empire in Bohol, which has presently employed thousands of Boholanos presently. I think everybody agrees that his store sparked business to its fullest heights today. Fred Ong and his wife Babs Gonzaga we
