In my business forecast for 2008, I initially predicted that there will be no huge political mudslinging that will have an impact in the economy. I was wrong.

Here we go again ! Repeated calls for the Philippine President to step down has again escalated due to alleged corruption concerning the ZTE-NBN broadband deal.

The ZTE-NBN broadband deal controversy brought a new name to Philippine politics, the name "Jun Lozada" became so popular.

In fact most webmasters and bloggers, would probably start exploiting the key word "Jun Lozada" right now considering that it is a high-trend, low-dense keyword.

But this article is not about optimizing the "Jun Lozada" keyword. Rather this post seeks to present the two sides of the story and seeks to answer whether Jun Lozada is a Hero or a hypocrite.

Jun Lozada's own words and actions tells his tale on why he testified against the administration. The following are his reasons:

1.) Jun Lozada has become so guilty by the anomalous transactions that he helped facilitate so he repented of his ways because he could not take it anymore. 2.) Jun Lozada became patriotic, his deep love for his country was awakened.

The administration and other people say otherwise. They say Jun Lozada is a hypocrite because of the following reasons:

1.) Jun Lozada's own testimony proves that initially he helped in the alleged commission of the offense before his alleged "repentance"; 2.) Jun Lozada never had the intention to testify in the Senate, this is evidenced by his going to Hongkong to evade Senate inquiry. But because of the pressure that he has been receiving from the Senate and his being away from his family, he decided to tell all. In other words his "telling" all is not because he was guilt-stricken or because he was patriotic but because he was pressured to do so.

So which is which? Is Jun Lozada a hero or a hypocrite?

Scientist have a way of choosting as to which theory or hypothesis is correct when they are confronted with two strong opposing theories or hypothesis. We know this to be the principle of "Occam's razor." According to Wikipedia this principle simply states "the explanation of any phenomenon should make as few assumptions as possible, eliminating those that make no difference in the observable predictions of the explanatory hypothesis or theory." To make it more simple, what is saying is that "All other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best."

Using this simple principle, all things being equal, did Lozada testify because he was guilt stricken and moved with loved for his country or did he testify because of surmounting pressure? Take note, the simplest explanation is the best. Jun Lozada - Hero or hypocrite? Decide for yourself!
