[Title] => Government loses P600 million in Kraft problem
[Summary] => Bacolod City Rep. Monico Puentevella said last week that the government lost P600 million in revenues when the Tariff Commission and the Bureau of Customs implemented the lower tariff on Kraft’s "Tang" products.
This is money the government can hardly afford to lose, especially at a time when the government is in fiscal crisis and asking for more taxes from the public, Puentevella said in his privilege speech on the Kraft imbroglio.

[Title] => LTFRB rollback order triggers chaos
[Summary] => "The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board has only allowed chaos among the riding public and the drivers because of its instant directive for a rollback to old fare rates." Thus said Jessie Ortega of the United Negros Drivers and Operators Center (UNDOC).
The July 2 order of the LTFRB only resulted in confusion, with drivers and passengers at loggerheads on what the rollback actually means.

[Title] => Ethanol — a possible way out of oil dependence
[Summary] => My attention was caught by that news story about four bus firms having agreed to run some of their buses on natural gas. This is reportedly a cleaner alternative to fuel some of the buses.
That reminded me of another vital venture that holds the promise of helping the country liberate itself from complete dependence on imported oil — and ease some of our foreign exchange outflow.

[Title] => Christmas surprises – creative sights
[Summary] => Christmas often brings out the most creative and impressive products of Filipino artists and craftsmen. But sometimes one can still be jarred by native creations. And that was what happened to me and my children and grandchildren.
Among the most memorable sights were the Christmas trees of the Gaisano Supermall along Singcang. The most impressive was that of a Christmas tree which soared high and with actual rice seedlings growing to regale viewers. And the indigenous materials of bamboo as well as newspapers crafted into Christmas trees.

[Title] => Nothing final on sugar importation, claim planters
[Summary] => Sugar planters emphasized yesterday that no decision has yet been made on whether to import sugar this year or not, even as they criticized certain sectors for issuing statements about imported sugar arriving this March to benefit their own interest.
The National Federation of Sugarcane Planters (NFSP), one of the country’s biggest sugar farmers organization, said that because of reports of sugar importation this March, sugar prices have gone down, affecting the livelihood of thousands of sugar farmers at a time when sugarcane is being harvested.
