[Title] => Numbers don’t lie
[Summary] =>
At the economic briefing jointly hosted by the Manila Overseas Press Club (MOPC) and the Economic Journalists Association of the Philippines (EJAP), GMA was undoubtedly in an upbeat mood. The numbers are clear – the economy is on an upswing – with recent developments enhancing the positive perception of the country as a feasible investment destination. There’s no question it’s been rough sailing for GMA and her administration, with tough and painful decisions often met with a lot of resistance at the onset.

[Title] => Guimaras oil spill: What happens now?
[Summary] =>
There are many expensive lessons to be learned from the Guimaras oil spill. However, I am not too confident that we will learn from this tragedy. The most important lesson I see is the need to modernize our inter-island oil tanker fleet, to include upgrading qualification requirements for crew members. Our government, through MARINA, should bite the bullet and force the various vested interests to adopt internationally accepted standards.

[Title] => Oil firms should stop acting like a cartel
[Summary] => I still think it is a bad idea to regulate the oil industry again. That will not bring down oil prices in the domestic market if the international price of oil is still in the stratosphere. The communist groups masquerading as NGOs are misleading the public on this point.

[Title] => Mar Roxas in 2010
[Summary] => Just about the only bright spot in the May 10 elections, is the strong possibility that Mar Roxas would be elected Senator. From as low as 16 or even lower before the campaign started, Mar zoomed right up to number 1 or 2, depending on what survey you are looking at. For a while, it seemed that neither performance in the Cabinet nor his presidential pedigree were enough to land him one of the 12 seats up for grabs in the Senate.

[Title] => Filipino First could mean Filipino Last
[Summary] => When Colgate shifted its toothpaste manufacturing to Thailand, I shifted to a local brand. When I travel abroad, I choose to fly on Philippine Airlines whenever possible, even if it is slightly more expensive. Two weeks ago, I decided to vacation in a beach resort in Bohol instead of going to Phuket in Thailand, even if it was more expensive to go to Bohol, if only to put my money where my mouth is.
