                    [Summary] => By tomorrow, May 8, the investing public which has been taken for a very long roller-coaster ride by GSIS president and general manager Winston Garcia, will finally know the identity of the alleged foreign buyers, if any, for the GSIS‚ 12.4-percent equity block in Equitable PCIBank (EPCIB).  


At last, the guessing game and the mystery comes to and end. Despite GSIS’ claim that there are interested buyers for its stake in EPCIB, the last two auctions were a no show. This is the third time and hopefully the last that an auction will be held.

Said another way, Mr. Roxas gets only P1.2 billion of President Macapagal-Arroyo’s P800-billion annual budget. For that amount of money, Mr. Roxas and his people have to promote Philippine trade as best as they can.

The undercutting is so bad that what used to go for P3,500 per square meters can now be had for P3,000/sqm.

This early, there are talk of government appointees who might be asked to retire to save face – hey, the other alternative is being fired and/or laterally moved to a less hot agency during the five-day New Year weekend.
