OVERVIEW
Human visual acuity is simply known as 20/20. This vision allows one to see objects in all their clarity and sharpness.
It is with the same clarity of vision and sharpness of insight that The Philippine STAR heralds 2020.

ABOUT
“Insights 2020” is the theme of The STAR’s 33rd anniversary as it presents stories and thought pieces in its 176-page commemorative issue today, penned by over 60 writers (including two National Artists and a Cabinet secretary) to tackle greatness, mediocrity and everything in between.
