[Title] => Injunction out vs Semirara landfill
[Summary] => An Antique judge has issued a writ of preliminary injunction against the controversial sanitary landfill project on Semirara Island which incidentally was scrapped by President Estrada following a public outcry.
Regional Trial Court Judge Sylvia Jurao, acting on the petition of the "United Antiqueños," said the dumping of garbage from Metro Manila on the island would result in "grave and irreparable injury and injustice" to the plaintiffs who have "a constitutional right to a healthy and balanced environment."

[Title] => Something stinks in Estrada's hometown
[Summary] => There is one hell of a stink in Metro Manila, and even President Estrada’s hometown has not been spared.
Three days after the closure of the San Mateo landfill, dumpsite for much of Metro Manila’s garbage, even the muni-cipality of San Juan reeks of trash.
Residents in this municipality, where Mr. Estrada’s son Jinggoy is mayor, have to cover their noses while passing by Blumentritt street corner N. Domingo street, particularly by the Agora complex.

[Title] => EDITORIAL - A stinking problem
[Summary] => You don’t need to go far for an example of the administration’s management style. Just follow your nose and you won’t miss the stink. Garbage is piling up all over Metro Manila, even in areas that used to take pride in being the cleanest in the capital. The reason: there’s no place to dump the 6,000 tons of garbage generated daily in Metro Manila. The landfill in San Mateo, Rizal shut down as scheduled at the end of 2000, and memories of the trash avalanche at the open dump in Payatas, Quezon City prevent the reopening of that facility.

[Title] => ‘Landfill bidding not over this year’
[Summary] => It will be impossible for the government to come up with the results of the bidding for a new sanitary landfill by the end of this year, an official of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority said.
The issue on garbage has been virtually forgotten with the political circus surrounding the President and the opposition calling for his resignation.
Eduardo Mejos, MMDA assistant manager for finance and concurrent Pre-qualifications Bids and Award Committee chairman, said that in all likelihood the results of the bidding will not be known this year.
