[Title] => Nextel Phils eyes profit next year
[Summary] => After three years of being in the red, trunk radio operator Nextel Communications Phils., Inc. expects to finally be in the black next year with a projected net income of P20 million.

Nextel president Emilio Festejo told reporters yesterday that the Philippines is the only local unit of NII that temporarily does not enjoy any financial support from its parent firm.
