10.   The UP Baguio community can now sigh with relief at the lessened volume of vehicles belching their way up UP Drive with more jeeps diverted away.

11.   Not all contractors are happy that Baguio and the Cordillera are priorities for infra projects because politicians have their own pet ‘kickbackers’ anyway.

12.    While the cold is welcome, too much rain is not as the specter of a Pepeng and Ondoy repeat lurks around the corner a month before their anniversary.
