EDITORIAL
Of Gloria’s
Article
Rev.
Gloria’s article came about when the editor chanced upon a list of names
involved in the research work for the creation of the Department of Religious
Affairs. The list is a file copy of
the editor’s friend who was asked to facilitate the preliminary discussion
about the proposed department. The
bill, by the way, was authored by House Speaker, Jose de Venecia.
Gloria
and the editor have not yet met in person in person up until now.
They only know each other by name. Erstwhile,
the editor heard only unsavory remarks about Gloria, so that when she saw her
name in that list which is meant to undertake an important task, she was
challenged to know more about her.
Through
Mr. Rogelio Fuentes, she and Gloria talked over the phone and the three of them
later decided that Gloria should write something about herself and her work and
how she came to be involved in the deliberation for the creation of the
Department of Religious Affairs. And
so, her article on this page.
The
editor is truly glad about this happy turn of events.
She is truly convinced that indeed the time is ripe for the truth to come
out. Whatever misconceptions there
were about Gloria that she might have entertained in the past, are now
completely erased. She has nothing
but admiration for this lady for the wonderful tasks she is doing for the
community and for the country. Hopefully,
others who might have similar misconceptions about her will be enlightened
through the article she has written.
