Unless economic reforms in the 1987 Constitution are carried out, problems confronting overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in Lebanon  and elsewhere in the world will continue to recur, a top business leader said over the weekend.


Francis Chua, president of the Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FFCCCI), said millions of Filipino migrant workers around the world might suffer the fate of 30,000 OFWs now caught in the crossfire in Lebanon in case international conflicts like these happen in the future.

                    [Summary] => President Arroyo has prevailed upon her chief legal counsel, Antonio Eduardo Nachura, to accept her appointment of him as the new solicitor general despite his reservations about accepting the job.


Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye said yesterday that Nachura, 64, would begin his new job between March 23 and April 1 to ensure a smooth transition as he takes over from Alfredo Benipayo, who tendered his resignation last Tuesday.


In an interview, Nachura said the President talked to him Thursday and formally offered him the position.

                    [Summary] => By duty, government must unravel the extent of the Left-Right ouster plot and punish the guilty. At the same time it must secure any citizen from false charges and warrantless arrest or seizure. The deft balance obviously is in painstaking gathering of evidence. If untempered by careful sleuthing, the situation would degenerate into witch-hunt.
