[Title] => DTI urges public to use only certified construction materials
[Summary] => The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) reiterated yesterday its advice to the public to use only certified construction materials and electrical devices for homes, offices, schools and other structures to minimize damage resulting from earthquakes.
According to Trade Secretary Peter B. Favila, "natural disasters such as earthquakes cannot be prevented. However, we can avoid massive damage to property and loss of lives if we ensure that public structures are well-built, not only in terms of location, design or construction, but in the quality of materials used."

[Title] => The sob story on substandard products
[Summary] => 
Using inferior, substandard electrical products are fire accidents waiting to happen.
That fiery warning comes from the Department of Trade and Industry (DT) as Fire Prevention Month draws to a close (sad to say, it’s during summer, when the temperature rises, that the incidence of fire goes up, too). Incidentally, this year’s observance focuses on the theme: "Pamayanan: Sama-sama laban sa sunog."

[Title] => DTI clamps down on substandard steel bars
[Summary] => The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) is clamping down on substandard steel bars following warnings by local architects about the proliferation of such products that could endanger the lives of unsuspecting home and building dwellers.
About 10 tons or 5,000 pieces of uncertified deformed steel bars worth nearly P500,000 is set to be destroyed by the DTI.
According to Trade and Industry Secretary Peter B. Favila, uncertified deformed steel bars are likely to be substandard when they do not bear manufacturer’s identifying mark or logo and the bar size.
