A little thing: In the Philippine flag, the blue part is supposed to be above the red, signifying peace over bloodshed, if ever the colors were interchanged, it would mean the country is at war.

Background Note:
This piece is referring to a recent event that happened in Philippines, Mindanao wherein an Islamic group, the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (aka MILF), ambushed a group of elite policemen, the SAF, during an investigation for terrorist bombers, the fight ended with 44 policemen dead.

The government gave arrival honors to the fallen men wherein the President was supposed to be present, but he didn't show. His reasons were that he "doesn't attend wakes of people that he doesn't know personally" and that he was scheduled to meet foreign investors regarding a Mitsubishi contract. You could guess people got mad at this.
