Enrile Takes Power
November 17, 2008
Juan Ponce Enrile is the new Senate President, taking the standard from Senator Manny Villar is a surprise development except to those who’ve been holding backroom discussions for weeks.
Villar will now focus on his presidential run while Enrile will busy himself with ensuring that the Cha-Cha train runs its course.
Only in the Philippines.
The man who just a generation ago faked his own ambuse to give the casus belli for the declaration of martial law.
Having ‘retaken p’ power, what will JPE now preside over?
The extension of someone’s expiring stay in the Palace by the Pasig?
