MANILA, Philippines — San Juan Mayor Francis Zamora on Friday announced that there would be no traditional 'basaan' or water drenching in the 2023 Wattah Wattah Festival in San Juan, to join the conservation of water given the upcoming El Niño season.

We are going to talk about "crazy". Are all comedians crazy? I personally identify with the term 'crazy'. I know enough about myself that I say what I mean. If that constitutes me as such, well be it. However, some take offense to the word as though it holds this negative connotation. Most people that are outspoken are referred to as "off', "misunderstood" or "crazy". But what is that? Our upbringing, surroundings or how situations mold or shape us as an individual. I challenge this in a discussion because I believe mental health is thrown around loosely.

The question was this: Could Sen. Robin Padilla be coaxed by Sen. JV Ejercito, then presiding over the Senate, to make a motion on the floor? At stake was National Hijab Day, during which, one observer tweeted, Senators Padilla and Joel Villanueva laughed as breastfeeding and the customs of Muslims and indigenous peoples were being discussed. Millions by now saw how it unfolded and how the motion wasn't even lost but simply failed, because of translation. To be precise, Padilla, speaking in Filipino, was left to grope for the right term because Ejercito, presiding in English, was unable to supply or even explain it.
