MANILA, Philippines – The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) announced today that there will be no tuition fee increases in state colleges and universities (SUCs). In a press briefing, CHED chief Patricia Licuanan said an agreement was reached between CHED and the Philippine Association of State Universities and Colleges (PASUC) that SUCs will not raise their tuition fees for school year 2011-2012. “We made a deal that there will be no increase in tuition fee this school year, and they promised,” Licuanan said, referring to CHED and PASUC agreement in 2010. She vowed to follow up reports of SUC tuition increases, saying, “Every time something comes out that this SUC raised tuition, we check. So far, what we have seen is that they have stuck to their end of the bargain.” (PNA)

Edd describes himself as an asocial and acerbic individual. He began blogging in 2007 on Blogspot, long before blogging became a widespread trend. Initially, his blog served as an online diary—a personal journal where he shared his experiences, thoughts, and travels. Over time, his blog evolved into a space where he could express his random musings and reflections. This personal blog doesn’t focus on any specific niche, but instead, it’s a collection of his diverse interests and feelings. Edd created the blog purely as a hobby, with no particular intention of aligning it with any particular theme or audience. It remains a platform for him to write about whatever crosses his mind, with a style that is uniquely his own—raw, honest, and unapologetic. Through the years, the blog has served as a creative outlet, allowing Edd to document his personal journey while sharing bits of his life and thoughts with the world.
