I really enjoyed reading many of the articles that you have on this site… even the Tagalog ones that I am struggling to understand. Good Work… I like that your site is not one-sided and biased. That it is not advertiser driven. And I think that its great that your stories run from funny to insightful… Keep up the good work. I normally do not read cultural papers, but I will definitely be checking your interesting topics at least once a week
