I am still in the Philippines, till mid-September. The election has come and gone. Being a ‘foreigner’, I was unable to participate; instead, I just observed in one of the public schools in Los Banos, Laguna. The first automated election was a success, but, with the glitches common in newly- introduced technology.
I hope these will be refined in the forthcoming elections. I did not take photos as cameras were not allowed inside polling precincts. The newspapers would have the news as they happen and when they happen.
By the way, the Sentinel is well read by the Filipino community. I left (a copy of) the March issue in Cebu when I was there during the Lenten week. I heard it’s still being circulated.
