[Title] => Stung by US criticisms, Palace vows conviction of human traffickers
[Summary] =>
Smarting from criticism by local and foreign agencies that it isn’t working hard enough to stop human trafficking, Malacañang vowed yesterday to make arrests and convictions of human traffickers soon.
Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye said in a statement that arresting and prosecuting human traffickers could not be done immediately because Republic Act 9208, the law criminalizing human trafficking, was only enacted in 2003.

[Title] => ‘US backing vibrant democracy’
[Summary] => The ongoing political crisis is democracy in action, and Washington backs democratic processes, a US official declared.
Acting Deputy Chief of Mission Scott Bellard said the US government continues to support the Philippine government, but on a "state-to-state" level.
Bellard made the statement in response to a question the other day on whether the US government still supported Mrs. Arroyo amid the political setbacks facing her administration, the worst crisis of her four-year-old presidency.
