This is a time for ideas, not just emotions

As the days progress, we face even more uncertainties.

- #MINDANAO JOHN TRIA

Political uncertainties are pervasive, with recent attacks on Poland, continuing conflict in the Middle East, protests in the United Kingdom, Nepal, and Indonesia. Unpredictable weather patterns dump rain, causing the floods that have ignited much national discussion. Economic uncertainties are also clear, with the tariff issues casting a lot of doubt on the future of the global economy. There is also the threat and opportunity brought by artificial intelligence to many livelihoods and the education of future generations. Such uncertainties create a complex social and physical environment for many of us. Discussing these requires fortitude and intellect.
