[Title] => Finished goods take priority in gov’t’s MFN tariff review
[Summary] => The government has decided to prioritize finished products in the review of the country’s Most Favored Nation (MFN) tariff rates, with intermediate products and raw materials following in succession.
This was agreed upon by the Cabinet-level Trade and Related Matters (TRM) committee which has been tasked by President Arroyo to undertake the review, especially since the country’s MFN rates are scheduled to go down next year.

[Title] => RP not keen on lowering tariff rates by 2004
[Summary] => The Philippines, along with a couple of other ASEAN member countries, is reportedly not too keen on immediately lowering its tariff rates to a uniform five percent by 2004 under the Most Favored Nation (MFN) commitment. The MFN rates would apply to countries outside of the ASEAN Free Trade Area.
The Philippines is not confident that its industries can effectively compete with other countries, especially China.
