[Title] => Search for teener in new Payatas tragedy fruitless
[Summary] => Overnight, neighbors, using only shovels and pick axes and aided by flashlights, looked for the remains of 16-year-old Roggee Baliwas, who was believed buried by smoldering trash after a slide hit a new heap of garbage beside the collapsed Payatas dump.
By early morning, their backs and arms sore from toil, the search party broke up defeated, unable to find any trace of the teenager.

[Title] => Payatas survivors to fight dump reopening
[Summary] => Survivors of the July 10 Payatas tragedy are set to challenge in court next week an order issued by President Estrada allowing the temporary reopening of the 15-hectare garbage dump.
"We don’t want another tragedy to happen here," said Delia Badion, president of the July 10 Payatas Victims Organization (J10PVO-Kadamay). "The President should have learned a lesson from the tragedy."
At least 234 people died and scores were injured when a side of the 100-foot mountain of garbage fell on a sleeping shanty town. Around 80 people remain missing.
