Rajmohan Gandhi held talks with President Corazon Aquino of the Philippines. Mr Gandhi was in Manila as part of a 22-strong Moral ReArmament group from ten Asian and Pacific nations. The President spoke to representatives of the party about the need for 'a spiritual content in the new chapter found by the country'. The group, which had first-hand experience of facing up to unemployment, racial tensions, trade friction and corruption in their own regions, also had discussions with three cabinet ministers.

In his new book 'Why Gandhi Still Matters: An Appraisal of the Mahatma’s Legacy', published this week, Rajmohan Gandhi appraises Gandhi and his legacy by examining some of his most famous (and often most controversial) ideas, beliefs, actions, successes and failures. The book is available immediately in electronic format (Kindle) and soon in hard copy.
