[Title] => PSE suspends trading of Wellex shares
[Summary] => The Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) suspended yesterday trading in shares of Wellex Industries Inc. of plastics king William Gatchalian due to the company’s failure to comply with the bourse’s reportorial requirements.

[Title] => Hard times hit hotels in Davao City
[Summary] => DAVAO CITY  Hard times have indeed hit hotels in this city since last year when two major hotels closed down due to low occupancy rates and high operational costs.
The closures resulted from the Asian economic crisis, the hostilities between government and Moro rebel forces and the spate of kidnappings by the extremist Abu Sayyaf, which slowed down tourist arrivals and economic activities in this part of the country.
This economic downturn triggered a price war among hotels here.
