I swear that the Department of Education in the Philippines have nothing else to fret about. They're criticizing manufacturers of school notebooks about the cover designs of their products: local celebrities. I do agree that it's all in bad taste and does not promote anything other than their worthless soap operas and try-hard sitcoms. 
One of the department people said that they should put pictures of our national heroes instead. I'm all for that, especially since I'm quite proud with the history of the Philippines, and I think a slice of the past should be enough for the schoolchildren to take their education seriously.
One of the actors in the cover of the school notebooks was interviewed. And I'd love to rip his guts out and feed his pretty-boy head to the lions along with the other idiots in the industry because he claims that he thinks that national heroes should be on the cover...but if he was more "influential", why can't he be on the cover???
