Dilaw napusuan
ng Ang Ladlad
Ni Alcuin Papa

DILAW ang kulay ng kandidato sa

pagka-pangulo at pangalawang pa-
ngulo na napili ng party-list group na
nangangakong magbibigay ng kulay
sa kalimitang mapusyaw na Kongreso.
Nilarawan ni Danton Remoto, chair ng Ang
Ladlad, si Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III ng
Liberal Party (LP) bilang “Walang bahid,
walang mantsa. Hindi mo na kailangang
magkuskos at magkula pa.
Sinusuportahan din ng Ang Ladlad si Makati
Mayor Jejomar Binay, vice presidential candi-
date ng Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP).
Sinusulong din ang kombinasyong “Noy-Bi”
ni Sen. Francis “Chiz” Escudero, na ayon kay
Remoto ay may papel na ginampanan sa
pagkuha nina Aquino at Binay sa suporta ng
Ang Ladlad.
Sinabi ng pangkat na imumungkahi nila ang
pagsasa-krimen sa diskriminasyon laban sa mga
lesbian, gay, bisexual at transgender (LGBT).
Magtataguyod din umano ito ng tahanan
para sa mga matatanda at inabandonang ka-
sapi ng pamayanang LGBT na tatawaging
“Golden Gays.”
“We will see all the colors of the rainbow in
Congress,” ani Naomi Fontanos, isa sa mga
nominado ng pangkat. Gagawin nilang “happy
and gay” ang party-list system, dagdag niya.

WILL it be a short and forget-
table stint for Far Eastern U in
the Shakey’s V-League Season 7
first conference?
The answer will be known at
4 p.m. today when the Lady
Tamaraws fight for survival
against powerhouse San Sebas-
tian at the FilOil-Flying V Arena
in San Juan.
Also facing the same predica-
ment like FEU is St. Benilde,
which takes on University of San
Jose-Recoletos at 2 p.m.
Though they have yet to
score a win in three games, the
Lady Blazers are favored against
the Lady Jaguars, who dropped
their first match to Adamson in
straight sets Sunday.
At the cellar with a 0-3 re-
cord, FEU is hard-pressed to
turn its game up a notch to keep
its campaign alive.
Coffee Masters nakatulog
SINOLO ng Talk ‘N Text ang
ikalawang puwesto sa
ginaganap na PBA Fiesta Cup
matapos ibagsak ang Coca Cola
Tigers, 115-91, kahapon sa
Araneta Coliseum.
Sa unang laro, hindi nahira-
pan ang B-Meg Derby Ace nang
talunin ang Barako Coffee, 93-
80, at iwasan ang ikatlong sunod
na talo sa kasalukuyang liga.
Suspendido ang import ng
Coffee Masters na si Sammy
Monroe kaya hindi nakaporma
sa Llamados na lumamang agad
ng 10 matapos ang first period,
12 sa half at 13 papasok sa
fourth quarter.
Pag-uusapan ng coaching
staff at management ng Barako
Coffee kung papabalikin si
Monroe sa susunod na laro sa
Mayo 2 laban sa Alaska Aces.
Samantala, bago iyon ay lili-
pad ang liga sa Palawan para sa
taunang All-Star break.
“I don’t know what our deci-
sion will be,” sabi ni Barako
Coffee coach Junel Baculi. “In
this league, your import should
be versatile. Our problem with
him is he cannot play the low
post. And he has been scouted
(by the opposition) very well.”
