                    [Summary] => The Philippines is already experiencing a surge in garment  orders from international markets  following the phaseout of garment quota system, Garments and Textile Export Board (GTEB) Executive Director Serafin Juliano said yesterday.


Juliano said  quota restricted categories accounted for the bulk, or about 60 percent, of new orders.  


"The increase in demand was good news for subcontractors," Juliano said.

                    [Summary] => The country’s export earnings from garments and textiles continued to weaken, dropping by another 3.19 percent to $1.807 billion in the first eight months of the year from $1.867 billion in the same period last year, the Garment and Textile  Export Board (GTEB) reported yesterday.


The GTEB, however, said the latest decline was slower compared with the previous drops, raising hopes  that the industry will  manage  a full year average growth of zero percent.


A zero growth this year would be better than the  2.7  decline  recorded by the industry  last year.
