This piece continues and ends the trilogy on PNOY’s No, No, No, Yes, Yes, NOoo… to inveiglements to continue in office as President and to unexamine his much examined presidency. For what and where Noynoy had done good, for his grade of 7 out of 10, you will find them in his past State of the Nation (SONA) speeches he has delivered in Congress. No… Read More »
