Violence in Maguindanao

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

In 2001, Cheche Lazaro and her team trooped to Mindanao to cover the election hotspots of Southern Philippines.

They made their way into the heart of Maguindanao to cover a campaign rally of Datu Andal Ampatuan. The convoy of Datu Andal Ampatuan, ahead of them by a few minutes, was allegedly ambushed. Three people died. There was an unconfirmed number of victims. When Lazaro rushed to the hospital where the victims were taken, she discovered that some were children.

This is a series of images from the 2001 report entitled, Bala’t Balota.

The Alternative Platform

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Even without any experience in governance, environmental activist Nicanor “Nicky” Perlas believes he is equipped to run the country come July 2010. Promising a departure from traditional politics, Perlas lays his cards on the table this Wednesday on ‘Probe Profiles.’ With Probe Profiles’ host Cheche Lazaro, Perlas discusses his track record and main advocacy–the environment–that supposedly make him eminently qualified to be president. He says he is far from being inexperienced, having advised two presidents, senators, congressmen, and Cabinet secretaries in various capacities. But while friends describe Perlas as brilliant, others dismiss him and his theories as out of this world or, to put it bluntly, crazy. Every election harvests a number of nuisance candidates; Perlas, an expert on climate change, insists he is not one of them.
