                    [Summary] => Here’s a bit of relief for credit card owners. Rep. Edcel Lagman of Albay introduced House Bill 1253. Our Batasan Ear-spy reported that HB 1253 seeks to prohibit retail shops from imposing extra charges on goods or services paid using a credit card. Under the bill, erring retailers face six months to one-year imprisonment. If the store is owned or operated by an alien, he will face summary deportation after finishing the prison term. Lagman said the retail price of goods or services must be the same, whether paid for in cash or via credit card.

                    [Summary] => The United States strongly opposes the granting of a presidential pardon for the killers of US Army Col. James Rowe.


The Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army-National Democratic Front have asked the Arroyo administration to free Alex Boncayao Brigade hit men Donato Continente and Juanito Itaas, along with other so-called political prisoners, as part of peace negotiations.


But US Embassy spokeswoman Karen Kelley said yesterday her government opposes presidential pardon for Continente and Itaas.
