We shake our heads, cluck our tongues and move on with our own lives, confident in the belief that none of this affects us. But it would be a mistake to disregard the dramatic events unfolding in Thailand in this manner. There, the prime minister yesterday declared a state of emergency in Bangkok to restore order after overnight clashes left one person dead and 43 others injured. On Monday night, a week of political tension exploded in street violence between protesters seeking to topple Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej and mobs of his supporters. About 500 Samak supporters marched through the streets after midnight vowing to retake Government House, occupied by anti-government supporters demanding Samak's resignation. Editorial, Manila Standard US appeals court junks Jocjoc asylum petition Wed, 03 Sep 2008 05:25:07 -0000 Former agriculture undersecretary Jocelyn "Jocjoc" Bolante is facing immediate deportation after the US Court of Appeals denied his bid for political asylum. According to University of the Philippines law professor Harry Roque, the US Court of Appeals has turned down Bolante's petition for asylum for failure to support his claim of political persecution in the Philippines. A more fundamental problem for Bolante is that he does not presently face prosecution. No charges have been filed against him. The Philippine Senate is seeking Bolante to testify on the fertilizer fund scam, where he was tagged as the "main architect" of the plan to divert fertilizer subsidy funds to finance President Arroyo's presidential campaign in 2004.
