Splice the ties!

Manny V. Pangilinan was an erstwhile staunch supporter of that blue university for the rich along Katipunan Avenue in Quezon City. Not so anymore, after he disengaged himself from the university, citing irreconcilable differences, the university being critical of the mining industry, a business MVP is passionate about. I had always contended that it is courageous to go on fighting for one's cause, instead of simply giving up. Quitting is cowardice. The way I read it, though probably this man is a good person, as many claim, he has his self and his interests priority, for how can one abandon a cause, especially his alma mater, when so many are benefiting from his aide, all because the university, one that shaped his character, is critical of his endeavors. The university better assess its program about how to disseminate the man-for-others program because with this splicing of ties of an alumnus, the program is perhaps a fail. Reminds me of a spider's story: To whom much is given, much is asked. It is always self sacrifice.
