Malacañang expected breakthroughs in negotiations with the Abu Sayyaf
after government emissaries re-established contact yesterday with the
extremists who are holding 21 mostly foreign hostages in Jolo, Sulu.

"We are hoping we will have breakthroughs and before President Estrada leaves
for China on May 16, something clear will happen in Mindanao," said Executive
Secretary Ronaldo Zamora.

This again raises hope for the prospects of an early release for a critically
ill German woman hostage but officials rejected claims that a ransom was being
negotiated for the release
