[Title] => SEC tightens rules on public offers
[Summary] => The Securities and Exchange Commission has tightened the definition of public offering to make it easier for the corporate watchdog to go after entities engaged in pyramiding or pseudo-investment operations. SEC Chairman Lilia R. Bautista said there is a need to clearly define what constitutes a public offering to ensure that shares are registered first with the commission before any sale is consummated.
Public offering has been defined as a random or indiscriminate offering of securities to anyone who will buy, whether solicited or unsolicited.

[Title] => Senator bats for lower stock taxes
[Summary] => Senate Majority Leader Loren Legarda is pushing for lower taxes on the trading of listed shares of stock, saying the local equities market "deserves as much support as Congress can lend it at this difficult time."

[Title] => The curse of the pyramids
[Summary] => Why seemingly educated Filipinos entrust their hard-earned money to pyramid schemes is a phenomenon that could only be the result of some innate character weakness collaborated on by changing societal values and the current overall economic malaise.
Never since the late 70s when Agrix Marketing, Inc., the first recorded pyramiding case in the Philippines, duped thousands of too-trusting fishermen, farmers, rural teachers and pensioners has there been a resurgence as far-reaching as today’s.

[Title] => NBI seeks death penalty for pyramid scammers
[Summary] => The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) wants the death penalty imposed on those involved in pyramid scams, considering the number of people who have been victimized by the scheme.
"Considering that some victims have committed suicide, perhaps we could seek the death penalty for people with major involvement in these shady and get-rich-quick deals," said NBI Director Reynaldo Wycoco.
He said that while the plunder law metes the death penalty for P50 million, the "pyramid scam is worth billions, so logically they should be meted the death penalty."
