[Title] => Goodbye Haydee
[Summary] => The feared, respected, and loved among the lawyers of our generation has passed away after a long bout with cancer. But in our hearts she will remain, especially in those of media persons whom she defended, pro bono, during the Marcos regime. This columnist and many other journalists saw her deftly handle their libel cases filed by military generals, government officials and businessmen who could not stand criticism. Her hair was kinky as her speech was full of metaphors and ironical allusions, delivered with that characteristic pout-and-smile.

[Title] => PAL decries anti-Tan smear campaign
[Summary] => Philippine Airlines (PAL) decried yesterday the false information being fed to the public by the group that won the contract to operate the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3.
PAL was reacting to the series of paid advertisements appearing in some newspapers putting PAL and its chairman, Lucio Tan, in a bad light.
"The public is being fed with lies by parties who are poised to monopolize the operations of NAIA Terminal 3 to divert its attention from the real issues being raised against the controversial project," PAL said.

[Title] => Cebu Pacific steps up bid to become RP’s 2nd flag carrier
[Summary] => The Gokongwei-owned Cebu Pacific is stepping up its campaign to become the country’s second flag-carrier and is apparently getting support from the multi-sectoral Economic Mobilization Group (EMG).
In a recent meeting of the EMG, Cebu Pacific had expressed interest in becoming the country’s second flag-carrier, taking over the slot left behind by the defunct Panlilio-owned Grand Air.
The EMB agrees on the need for a second official carrier, noting that of the 5.7 million in seat entitlement of the country, only 30 percent is being utilized.

[Title] => Home for Christmas - WHY AND WHY NOT by Nelson A. Navarro
[Summary] => I’ve had all kinds of Christmas, many in Manila and in New York, but none half as memorable or poignant as the ones I spent zillion moons ago as this promdi UP student making December flying visits to faraway Bukidnon.
Spending Christmas with the family was one entitlement my promdi generation couldn’t do without. Rich or poor, we believed there could be no fate worse than being alone and lonely in Yakal Residence Hall after all your dorm mates had flown home for the holidays.
