“Rising Sun is the personal blog of Danny Arao, a writer, teacher and webmaster based in the Philippines. It includes his biographical data, photographs and selected articles on various issues and concerns.”

That’s the short of it but there’s so much more personality to the blog, making it a must on your list of blogs to visit. Given that the youthful writer himself is in fact one of the more prominent figures in Philippine media and a respected Professor at THE University of the Philippines, his blog shows both his interests in life and his career.

His blog covers politics, grammar, internet, society, current events, culture with a few funnies here and there, and even a glimpse of announcements for his students in Journalism, Thesis, Publication among others. For the more curious, the blog shares a link to his Friendster account.

The blog also gives a glimpse of the author’s published weekly articles that is well-written in Tagalog (the Philippines’ official language) and so are archives of past writings in English and Tagalog.
