I had heard stories of incidents similar to the ones you're describing. But I didn't know whether to believe them or not. Tough problem indeed Steven. I don't know if a bottom up approach would work though. Especially, since the courts have become so corrupted. Seems to me a strong effective leader, someone elected and trusted by the people could go along way toward cleaning house. Especially if he built a well trained and trusted FBI. Do you know whether this sort of corruption was as common before Marcus came to power? I don't know my history of the Philippines very well, but I seem to remember reading they were once one of the wealthiest nations in the region. And it makes me wonder whether Marcus created the environment in which the present situation flourished. Ooops, wife is calling...Gotta go..I look forward to reading your response tomorrow, if you feel so inclined to post. Michael
