I read the same thing about the Philippine team having "over-aged" players in
the newspapers here. Well, this is not new. My brother-in-law was once the 
catcher of the Philippine Baseball Team (adult) and he knows about the 'daya' 
that goes on in the Little Leagues. According to him, the Taiwanese team is 
the prime example of putting over-aged players into the team by falsifying the
real ages of the players. They take advantage of the fact that Asians are
generally smaller than the Americans and the age is not very apparent in the
difference. The Philippine team got wind of this 'daya' when they saw the
same players season after season long after these players should have been too
old to play LL. It's no wonder that the Taiwanese team used to win all the time
during LL. But when it comes to real baseball where age no longer counts - how
come they don't win ?

Mr. Panlilio ?! Formerly with Pilipinas Shell sometime ago (around 1985-86) I
presume. Well, if so - think well and try to recall a summer student who worked
with the EDP during the summer of '85. Glance at the header if the name rings a
bell. Yours does because I remember meeting a fellow in Shell who said he was
moving to Calgary. Your header does ring a bell. BTW, I was under Jojo Montano.

Hope you remember me. I think I remember you and, if this is not a case of a

  I don't recall reading about any of this. If this bit of history is
post-80's, then it is more recent than my information. General Lim was the 
father of our parish priest Fr. Patricio Lim.  He told me that their family 
doesn't know what happened to the general after his capture.
  My curiosity is piqued.  Do you have any more info about the firing
squad?  I take it that it was a Japanese firing squad.

Is promdi still used?  (yes, I know what it means)

This may help.  If my memory serves me right, we have now a new
alphabet and this time it includes 27 letters (all 26 letters of the
English alphabet plus our very own 'ng').  This will tell us that the
terms 'Filipino' and 'Pilipino' are both correctly spelled and thus
can be used interchangeably.

I am not very sure of this.  Please correct me if Im wrong.

Organization: University of Washington, Seattle

Hellow,

I'm soliciting opinions as to why the P.I. seems so impovrished a nation.
With what appears to be a wealth of natural resources, talented, highly-educatedpeople, where English is almost a 2nd native language, why has the P.I. fallen
so far behind other Asian countries which appear to have many more disadvantages? Countries as Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, etc. What I see on U.S. news media is
a bleak picture of desparate poverty, where political corruption and moral
decay is an integral part of the culture, where nobody seems to have any ideals
higher than materially enriching the individual or his clan, a country where
everybody seems intent on leaving as fast as they can, where it's young women
sell themselves as mail-order "brides", or as servants abroad.

What do you see as the future for the Phillipines? An inevitable slide into
anarchy and revolution and from there to corrupt fascism, political fragmentation, or a brighter future?  why and how?

Sure is, cockfighting is one of the most popular spectator sport.  But is
this really a sport?  Oh well, I cannot forget that time when I was seven

	The Philippine team just beat the Dominican Republic 5-1 to
	win the International Division! Alright!!!

	They face the winner of the US Division for the World Title
	on Saturday, and the game will be televised, sorry I forgot
	to note the time and whether it would be on ABC or ESPN.

	I watched part of the game and it was wonderful.  The Pinoys
	were underdogs in this game, having lost to the same team
	the night before 8-1, and everyone thought that the Latin
	Americans were invincible.  The Filipino pitcher, Placios,
	had a perfect game going into the last inning.  That's no
	hits, no base on balls, no batters reaching first, nothing.
	I think they said there was only one ball hit into the outfield,
	and there were a lot of strikeouts.  This guy was really
	cool, and I could see where the comment about the Filipino
	pitchers playing mind games came from.  And to top it all,
	in the last inning, he hit a homerun!! He eventually lost the
	perfect game and the shutout, but great defense preserved the
	win for the Philippines.

	The other nice thing about the game was seeing the Filipinos
	in the stands supporting the team, waving flags and cheering.
	I wish I could have been there.
