Sy, Jr: Yes, the political angle or motivation makes sense. Election times in the Philippines always make for interesting and exciting copy, to say the least. Re additions to www.filipinomartialartsmuseum.com, any contribution from you will be most appreciated. You are developing into one of the foremost promoters, writers and archivists of FMA not just in the Visayas but the Phil. More power to you, sir.
