Malu Fernandez: return of the comeback. Coming from Manila Standard news sources itself, it's true: The Divalicious will resume publication this Monday. An insider said: "while Malu Fernandez indeed has submitted her resignation, her resignation has not been accepted by higher management, hence we will continue publishing her column."
