In an editorial yesterday, the Financial Times – primarily based in London but published worldwide simultaneously on four continents (with French and German tie-ups and editions) – has condemned our creeping Congressional "canvass" as, in its headline,  The Slowest Election.


The subhead of the piece is even more specific: Vote-counting in the Philippines is a national disgrace.

                    [Summary] => A senior Hong Kong economic and trade official warned yesterday that the Philippines is in danger of losing its status as a premier manufacturing and assembly hub for Hong Kong businesses to other Asian countries.


Clement Cheung, director of the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office (HETO), said that while the Philippines has a few advantages like being physically closer to Hong Kong, a ‘not bad’ infrastructure, and an educated and highly skilled workforce, its major disadvantage lies in the fact that labor cost in the Philippines is increasing.
