Laudable decision
DANTES. No to politics—for now
Oliver Ramos, student: “Dingdong Dantes’ decision not to join politics (for now) is laudable. Show biz personalities, especially those who see politics as just another money-making venture, should follow Dingdong’s example.”
Other notes:
Meanne Mijares, events planner: “The spectacular performance of El Gamma Penumbra, the first grand winner of ‘Asia’s Got Talent,’ has proven that a contestant doesn’t need to have expensive and colorful props and costumes to win a contest—sometimes, all it takes are creativity and team work. The relevant issues and environmental concerns they tackle make their performances unforgettable!”
Flor Obate, housewife: “The premiere episode of TV5’s Filipino adaptation of ‘The Baker King’ was a delight. It was a triumph in restrained acting, especially from its senior cast members, Boots Anson-Roa, Jackie Lou Blanco, Raymond Bagatsing and Diana Zubiri.”
Jonathan Catunao, engineer: “The first thing I wished for after the confirmation of ‘Taklub’s’ participation in the Un Certain Regard section of the Cannes film fest was for its viewers to be touched by the stories it depicts, so that the victims of Yolanda will never be forgotten. With the rave reviews that the film is getting, Brillante Mendoza and Nora Aunor have succeeded in that objective!”
