[Title] => Makati Business Club: A house divided
[Summary] => With stocks surging and even US-based investment bank Bear-Stearns saying the economy would climb faster this year, feisty businesswoman Vivian "Le Difference" Yuchengco is once again on the warpath, demanding that the Makati Business Club leadership stick to business and stay away from politics. Insiders told Spybiz that the former Philippine Stock Exchange president’s call for new and better leadership seems to be gaining ground, with more members expressing dissatisfaction at the way the club’s affairs are being run.

[Title] => The continuing saga of conflicts
[Summary] => In a recent Senate hearing, senators Frank Drilon and Nene Pimentel questioned why Presidential Adviser on International Competitiveness Roberto R. Romulo uses the title "Ambassador" because as they clearly pointed out, the Foreign Service Act of 1991 restricts the use of the title to people with specific foreign assignments, and must be approved by the Commission on Appointments. It may be recalled that in the early days of GMA’s term, Romulo was appointed as Presidential Adviser with Cabinet rank.

[Title] => There is life outside of politics
[Summary] => With the way the stock market has reacted and how the peso has risen against the dollar because of the EVAT, investor confidence is beginning to come back. While there was plenty of politics before the implementation of the EVAT, the good thing is it is done and there are clear signs of the economy moving forward. We have to give credit to the Administration for being consistent in pushing it in spite of the potential political fallout. This is the kind of political will we need today.

[Title] => Paralysis without analysis
[Summary] => Once again, we find ourselves in a state of paralysis – this time without analyzing the consequences. Too many people shouting "Resign!" but don’t seem to realize the consequences of forcing another president to leave office without going through the constitutional process. They think that another change of face will just wipe out our problems. How many more times do we have to go through this inane exercise before we realize that merely changing faces isn’t going to solve the problems of this country?

[Title] => Go-ing deeply into debt
[Summary] => Edwin Go, son of Equitable PCIBank’s Antonio Go, is now in Manila to raise money. He has recently been banned from engaging in any banking practice in the US. Our top West Coast Eye-Spy provided us documents of the many lawsuits filed against Edwin in San Francisco for his failure to pay debts amounting to millions of dollars. The documents reveal that Edwin and wife Helen Chen had been on a borrowing spree from banks and even private individuals starting with a loan of $600,000 they obtained from Trans Pacific National Bank (TPNB) in February 2001.

[Title] => Politicians come & go, businessmen are here to stay
[Summary] => When Danding Cojuangco asked me to join him to a small dinner with some of the country’s powerful and influential businessmen last Thursday evening, I thought perhaps he was going to be more candid about his plans for 2004. But Wash Sycip, who organized the dinner and who has known Danding for many years, made his intention very clear: Wash brought together all these businessmen – so-called "high-stakeholders" of the country – to discuss the state of the country’s economy, where it is going, and where it must go if we want the Philippines to prosper.
