Dear Andy,
I think I know where you are right now. If I were single with no kids, I might fly out there. But stalking isn’t my thing.
Not since Adrien Brody stepped into Manila have I felt this way.
I’m kind of happy you’re gay because I can’t stand the thought of you dating a girl with pwet-length hair (see Adrien’s girlfriend).
When you were stuck in a Manila hangar because you couldn’t fly to Tacloban, I felt frustrated for you.
When you were in Tacloban, I wondered where you slept or what you ate. My girlfriends and I were worried sick about you, on top of being depressed about the situation in the Visayas.
I hope you’re getting good sleep now and we will be sad to see you go.
I’ve been watching CNN everyday for years. It’s either CNN or ANC that keeps me company while I’m working.
I love the way you come in and wear a dark grey T-shirt while you’re working for the world’s greatest news network, in my opinion.
And I love how you handled the Korina issue. I have nothing against Mar or Korina, but what you did is something we don’t see in the Philippines, where celebrities bash and fight it out on TV (or in this case, radio) Twitter or Instagram.
As Teddyboy Locsin said, you didn’t have to explain yourself, but you did anyway. And we love you more for what you said about our people.
Thank you.

I feel for him. He didn’t do anything wrong and he truly didn’t have to explain himself. He was simply being forthright about his observations — highlighting the need for a more organised relief operation from the national government. It is appalling that our national government has failed — and is failing to demonstrate credible leadership in the course of this tragedy. The President (and his team) should be accountable — and should refrain from pointing the finger at the local government for “failing” to tackle the situation. If a simple employee not doing his job proficiently, is reprimanded and… Read more »

I’ve been mulling over this for a few days since this Korina thing popped up – hesitant to write about it. So here goes – why exactly are Filipinos (and you can include me in that) so defensive when we get talked about in a way that throws light on the truth? Why can’t we take a dose of reality from foreigners – especially when they point out a truism which begs for improvement. I’m really proud of being Filipino and our better qualities, but this over-sensitivity, that I see over and over again really takes the cake. If those… Read more »

Korina lost all her integrity when she married Mar Roxas. She is not a kind person; integrity was all she had. Poor woman.

2 things ended when they got married. Her integrity and his political career.

Korina has integrity? puh-lease…. Even before she married Mar, she didn’t have any.
