OH, but there just has to be somebody to hear complaints. Everybody but everybody loves to nitpick, to wail about being shortchanged – man, woman, boy, girl, even the animal in whose honor 2006 has been declared – the dog – whose manner of complaining can take the unnerving form of either a whine or a big, bad bite.
I know. My own wagging, loving canine, Gracia (a female, but of course!) has this habit of baying  followed by a little whining when nasty me would be stoning and shooing away the neighbor’s fluffy big dog I often find in the yard  when coming home. You guessed it, the carajo hairy one  is a male, a darn good-lookin’ one—and my unwelcome arrival gets protested by my own  Gracia who must feel I had no right to drive away her pleasure.
 
So everybody, every animal capable of feeling aggrieved, will complain, that’s a fact of life.
 
On that premise, here in Las Islas Filipinas, they drew up on July 15,1992 Republic Act No. 7394, otherwise known as the Consumer Act of the Philippines that guides the destinies of buyers and sellers.
 
Its objectives?
