Half of the office I work in is Phillipino's. In fact one of the guys went back there to visit for a month last week, so they're all joking that he's behind it. They were telling me that the last time the government was over thrown that the bloodshed was pretty minimal, like 4 soldiers. They're optimisitc that this can be resolved peacefully though. I guess it puts things in perspective about how peaceful things are on our home soil.
