Lets do this Philippines! Former diplomat Luis Guillermo - TopicsExpress



          

Lets do this Philippines! Former diplomat Luis Guillermo Solis, of the Citizen Action Party (PAC), won with around 78 percent of votes by tapping in to public anger at rising inequality and government corruption scandals. His win dislodges a two-party dynasty that has governed the coffee-producing country for decades. It is also another victory for Latin Americas center-left parties, which have steadily gained ground across the region in recent years. More than 1 million Costa Ricans have said yes to change, Solis told thousands of cheering supporters waving red-and-yellow party flags on Sunday night. We need to shift away from ... a violence expressed in poverty, in inequality and in the utterly perverse form of corruption.
