[Title] => Help wanted: 500,000 nurses
[Summary] => With people exasperated with his plan to free 122 Chinese poachers in Palawan, Foreign Sec. Blas Ople claimed he was only doing his job. "We respect the judicial process," Ople acknowledged the Navy’s reluctance to release the poachers since they’ve already been charged in court. "But at the same time, there is merit in the request of the Chinese embassy to fast-track the hearing which has been pending for several months."
