Thus said Albert Einstein, supposedly, but this attribution is nowadays commonly disputed. What is indisputable, however, is the fact that President Marcos has ordered the revival of many programs and policies instituted during the 20-year rule of his late father in the hopes of ostensibly reviving the so-called golden age of the Philippines. Without a doubt, many of those policies produced stellar results, especially at the outset. But many of those same policies also eventually collapsed and fell into disrepute once the zeal of implementation of all involved waned and the ne'er-do-wells in power stuck their fingers into the proverbial pies.

Cagayan de Oro City Rep. Rufus Rodriguez (Photo from his Facebook page) MANILA, Philippines — The Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) should defer its imposition of higher aviation fuel surcharges as more expensive airplane fares could dampen local and domestic travel and tourism. Cagayan de Oro City Rep. Rufus Rodriguez made this call on Saturday as the CAB is set to implement higher fuel surcharges in September after three months of no adjustments. Rodriguez also appealed to Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, Air Asia, and other airline companies to forgo collecting the increased surcharge.

LUCKNOW, India — At least 54 people died in a district in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh over the last few days, the Times of India newspaper reported on Monday, as authorities probed if the loss of lives was due to the heat wave in the region. Another 45 people died in neighboring Bihar state, local newspapers reported. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a red alert warning last week for extreme heat in some regions of the country, including Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. The government said it was investigating the cause of the deaths that occurred over three days last week in Uttar Pradesh's Ballia district, about 970 km (600 miles) southeast of New Delhi.

By Moira Warburton and David Morgan WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Republican U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Wednesday rejected a stopgap funding bill advancing in the Senate, bringing Washington closer to its fourth partial shutdown of the U.S. government in a decade with just four days to go. That would lead to the furlough of hundreds of thousands of federal workers and the suspension of a wide range of government services, from economic data releases to nutrition benefits, until Congress manages to pass a funding bill that President Joe Biden, a Democrat, would sign into law.

SEOUL — South Korea's government unveiled plans on Monday aimed at curbing the country's burgeoning spending on private education, which has been blamed for being a major factor behind the country's declining fertility rate. The move comes as President Yoon Suk Yeol this month criticized college entrance tests that incorporate questions not in the curriculum at public schools, including some that have been dubbed 'killer questions' because of their complexity. 'We will cut the vicious cycle of killer questions in exams, which leads to excessive competition among students and parents in private education,' education minister Lee Ju-ho told a briefing.

Let me start by congratulating SRSG Simão on his appointment and thank him and ECOWAS Commission President Touray for their briefing. I will make three points focusing on democracy, security and humanitarian issues. First, while welcoming the democratic progress in parts of the region, the United Kingdom is concerned by democratic uncertainty and shrinkage of civic space in some countries. Progress towards the restoration of constitutional governments in Mali, Burkina Faso and Guinea has been too slow.
