   the palace was quick to deny that they are paying for the trip. officials confirm that they are shouldering the expenses themselves. what they forgot to tell is that yes, it might not be coming from their personal pocket but rather from their offices’ expense.

   still, we, the filipino taxpayers are paying for the trip.

   that is how a spin is, it made it sound better, but in fact, it is worse.
