Snippet: Too many actors today try to be a brand, but Suranne Jones has the right idea: she wants to be a studio. The English actress has enjoyed a terrific run of television hits, whether commercial or critical, this last decade with starring roles in the likes of Doctor Foster, Gentleman Jack and Vigil, but she has also begun making shows that add a genuinely illuminating depth to her body of work.

Snippet: AS my good friend and colleague Stephen CuUnjieng explained in a television interview earlier this week, the government’s move to drop the excise tax on fuel — and possibly remove or modify the value-added tax as well, although that seems unlikely — in order to provide some cushion against skyrocketing oil prices is a reasonable short-term measure, but not a sound, long-term solution to the risks that import dependence impose on the Philippines.
