SHOOTING STRAIGHT

Last Friday, I was in
the midst of a very important meeting when a friend interrupted our meeting to
show us a texted report that the Commission on Elections (Comelec) finally
approved the purchase of the Precinct Count Optical Scan (PCOS) machines. My meeting had nothing to do with politics,
yet a report like that was shocking enough for us in Cebu because of the incident
that happened in the town of Compostela, 25 kilometers North of Cebu City where
they didn’t have any town officials for 22 months, thanks to the PCOS machines
that doesn’t know now to count!
