In the Philippines, impeachment trial tests government’s pledge to fight corruption

In The Philippines, officials continue the country’s first-ever impeachment trial of the chief judge of the Supreme Court. Renato Corona faces a number of charges, including failure to disclose assets, blocking the investigation against former President Gloria Arroyo for electoral fraud, and misuse of a multimillion dollar World Bank loan. The trial has riveted the country with demonstrations both in support of and against impeachment. Some activists have used a technique that may be familiar in the US - they’ve set up a tent near the Senate - and they’re pressing for an end to corruption and for integrity of the judicial process.
