DURING the 16th and 17th centuries, territories in Europe and many parts of Asia were ruled and governed for the good of the head of the nation — a king, an emperor or a local chief — and its people, at least in theory. Democracy was practiced at times within a certain political community but in a very reduced and limited way and only to address very concrete issues. Ideologies today present themselves like recipes that guarantee the success, the prosperity, the welfare and the freedom of the citizens, but centuries ago, the discussion was towards good governance. What is good governance? What are the features of a good leader? How can a territory be preserved and even enlarged for the good of the citizens? What issues are the most important in order to improve the lives of the people? How can political adversaries be defeated? How to discourage enemies from interrupting the peace, the trade and the freedom of a certain political community? The idea of good governance was recovered ... » Learn More about Ordinances of good governance in Spanish colonial Philippines (1)

MADRID (Reuters) - The Spanish football federation has confirmed it has opened an investigation into Cadiz defender Juan Cala after he was accused of racially abusing Valencia's Mouctar Diakhaby in last Sunday's La Liga match. The federation did not provide any more details on the investigation or say when a resolution would be announced. Diakhaby on Tuesday called for Cala to be sanctioned for making the racial slur, which the Spanish player denies making. Cala, 31, said in a fiery news conference on Tuesday that he had said "leave me in peace" to Diakhaby during the 2-1 win and that the French defender had misinterpreted what was said. Valencia's players walked off the pitch and wanted to abandon the game but eventually resumed playing without Diakhaby, who asked to be substituted.

Justin Bieber, who allegedly lip-synced his Mumbai concert last week and was reprimanded for his unruly behaviour towards fans, is under fire for another goof. Bieber has more reasons to say "Sorry" again: during a live performance at a nightclub in New York City, he forgot the lyrics to his own song. While singing "Despacito", his chart-topping Spanish song with which he collaborated with Puerto Rican artists Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, he forgot the lyrics and improvised it, TMZ reported. Instead of singing "Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito (We're sticking together, little by little)," Bieber chanted, "Nos vamos pegando, I quit smoking ciggies." In another line, instead of "Firmo en las paredes de tu laberinto (I sign the walls of your labyrinth)" he replaced it with the gibberish, "Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah." Apparently, Bieber, 23, is exhibiting tepid relations with "Beliebers" during his "Purpose" world tour last year and in the past few months.

Luis Enrique said Wednesday that Spain "must apply ourselves from minute one" as they start their World Cup qualifying with a trio of matches against teams they are expected to beat. "Bearing in mind that in every World Cup there are teams of a level like ours who don't qualify, we are going to do our homework and apply ourselves from minute one," said the Spain coach at a press conference ahead of Thursday's game at home to Greece in Granada. "Tomorrow is a day to remember what kind of competition we are starting, what kind of game we are going to play and to be attentive," Luis Enrique said, insisting his team and fans should forget Spain's last game, in the Nations League. "Anyone who thinks that by beating Germany 6-0, we are going to beat Greece by more, has little knowledge of football," he said. "Football is full of surprises and trap teams, we are going to try to be better on the pitch," said Luis Enrique, for whom Greece "do not have any individual who stands out from ... » Learn More about Luis Enrique tells Spanish players to keep World Cup focus

TACLOBAN CITY —The parish priest of Homonhon in Guiuan town, Eastern Samar has appealed to government officials, including President Duterte, to help stop the mining operations on the island.

In a press conference, he said: “I know there is an opening for Manchester United, about 2, 3 to 5 per cent."
