Okay, as I read this story from from Tim, I am very much appalled that the Philippine government are letting this incidents happens to all of the Filipino people, whether they be man, woman or child!! They’re hard working people that just want to make ends met like all of us are trying to do! BUT to be treated with dismay as if you’re lower than the Chinese???!!! PLEASEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeee… this really gets my goat up, Hong Kong was under British ruling until they were return to communist CHINA – who do they think they are?

Aquino’s colon cancer has spread to the liver
FORMER President Corazon Aquino’s cancer has spread from her colon to her liver and her condition is so delicate that she cannot undergo chemotherapy, her son said yesterday.
“Initially it was in the colon, but now it has spread to the liver,” said Senator Benigno Aquino III.
“Her weakened condition does not allow chemotherapy,” he said, adding that the 76-year-old former leader, who has been in hospital for a month, was being fed intravenously.
“We have reached the point where you’re not sure if the intervention will help or worsen the condition,” he told reporters.
Aquino said his mother started pain management last week, including the use of morphine.
A regulator is attached to Mrs. Aquino’s nose to improve the flow of oxygen, and a catheter is used to help her urinate, he said.
He added that Mrs. Aquino’s doctors advised against the family taking her home, as they would be unable to bring her quickly to the hospital in case of an emergency.
Special prayers have been said throughout the country on behalf of Mrs. Aquino, who is widely seen as a symbol of democracy.
At the beginning of her last State-of-the-Nation Address yesterday, President Arroyo started with a silent prayer for Mrs. Aquino.
Mrs. Aquino, the widow of assassinated opposition leader Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr., was propelled into the spotlight in 1986 when she headed a massive “People Power” movement that toppled the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos.
The housewife-turned-president went on to restore democracy and rewrite the country’s Constitution.
Over the past four weeks, Aquino’s friends and former officials have been rallying support for the family.
