[Summary] =>
Like all creatures on earth, man is guided by routine. Each day may bring different surprises, but whether we like it or not, our lives are set by the seasons, and schedules and customs that have been observed since the beginning of time. Certain months bring the rains to some parts of the world, while they bring snow to others; some months mark the beginning of a new school year while it means the start of another glorious summer for others.

[Title] => US expert urges local exporters to change strategy
[Summary] => Filipino exporters should move away from a price competitive strategy and instead shift to a value-added strategy, according to Mark Van Fleet, managing director for international business development of the US Chamber of Commerce.
Van Fleet, said "if you just compete based on price, it will not be a long-term competitive strategy." He pointed out that exporters from India, Thailand and China could easily undercut Filipino exporters.
Accordingly, Van Fleet advised Filipino exporters to move toward more value-added albeit higher priced exports.

[Summary] => Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are seeking an amendment to the Magna Carta for SMEs.
Philippine Small and Medium Business Development Foundation (Philsmed) president Mina Gabor said yesterday that government should channel more of its business to SMEs.

She said SMEs actually comprise 99.9 percent of all businesses in the Philippines.
