Welcome to Bulatlat’s group blog

Welcome to “On the Fringes,” the group blog of the staff of Bulatlat.com.

Here, the staff of one of Philippines’s most credible alternative online publications will blog about people’s issues that are rarely tackled in the mainstream press. This blog will complement Bulatlat’s reporting, featuring posts and stories that cannot be found in the main site.

We hope this blog would encourage dialogue between the staff and our readers.

Enjoy your visit.
