The suspension of

irregular contracts and

excessive pays of

executives of government

corporations, and zero

budgeting were among the

accomplishments that

President Benigno

"Noynoy" Aquino III

reported to the nation for

the first 100 days of his

term.

Aquino also

boasted of the $2.4

billion

investments from

foreign investors

that would create

43, 600 jobs for

Filipinos.

Known by many

for his simplicity,

Aquino tried to

lead a good

example for

Filipinos by

avoiding using

sirens on the

roads and cutting

his foreign trips.

His first foreign trip was his weeklong visit to

the United States last month where he had a

chance to meet with US President Barack

Obama.

Since his assumption to office,

Aquino issued eight executive

orders, among them were the

creations of the Truth

Commission and the

Presidential Communications

Development and Strategic

Planing Office, that replaced

the Office of the Press

Secretary, revoking the so-

called "midnight

appointments" by the past

administration, and directing

the rationalization of the

compensation and position

classification system in the

government owned and

controlled corporations and

government financial

institutions.

But his

first 100

days in

offices

was not a

walk in

the park.

His leadership was

tested when a

dismissed police

officer held hostage

a busload of

tourists.

A 12-hour hostage-

taking last August

23 left eight

Hongkong tourists

and the hostage-

taker dead.

The President, after

receiving strong

criticisms from all

over the world, had

apologized for it.

His leadership

was again tested

when Archbishop

Oscar Cruz had

linked some of his

officials,

including his

close friend--

Interior

Undersecretary

Rico Puno, to

jueteng.

Aquino's stand in favor

of responsible

parenthood also created

a stir when the Church

issued strong

statements against him.

The Catholic Church

reminded Aquino about

the possibility of ex-

communication as

punishment for those

who would espouse

artificial means of

family planning.

But the Church relented

after and clarified that

this was not meant to

threaten Aquino.
