[Summary] => FOCUS ON WOMEN: In case the menfolk have not noticed, March is National Women’s Month. This will explain the flurry of activities honoring women and showing appreciation for what they have been doing for the rest of us.
This might also explain why Interior and Local Government Secretary Angelo T. Reyes has a special press release paying tribute to women in public service.

[Title] => Pagcor officials face plunder raps after polls
[Summary] => Officials of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. (Pagcor) will face plunder charges after the May 10 elections.
Members of Plunder Watch and Action Against Corruption and Tyranny Now have accused them of "wholesale looting" of the state-run gambling firm.
The charges will be filed after the elections to show that the case is not politically motivated, they added.
Carol Araullo, convenor of Plunder Watch, said they are also seeking the resignation of Pagcor chairman Ephraim Genuino.

[Title] => Erap sa civil society: Maging makatao naman kayo!
[Summary] => Kinondena ni dating Pangulong Estrada ang mga maling impormasyon na ipinakakalat ng civil society group na Plunder Watch ukol sa kanyang "house arrest" sa kanyang villa sa Tanay.
Ayon kay Estrada, naturingan anya tayong isang bansang Katoliko, pero may mga Pilipino na hindi naman makatao.
"This is supposedly a Catholic country. Why is it that some of our countrymen do not even have compassion?" sabi ni Erap.

[Title] => Erap to tell Sandigan today if he still wants US trip
[Summary] => Ousted President Joseph Estrada will appear today before the Sandiganbayan special division to clarify whether he still intends to go to the United States on Jan. 23 for knee surgery.
"(The justices) are really confused over what he really wants," said lawyer Renato Bocar, special division spokesman.
"That’s the reason why he has been summoned to clarify, from his own mouth, what he really wants because he keeps on changing his declarations in the media," Bocar said.

[Title] => Charges filed over road scam
[Summary] => Graft charges were filed yesterday before the Sandiganbayan against 26 government officials and a private contractor after the Office of the Ombudsman found they had connived to overprice the 5.1-kilometer President Diosdado Macapagal Boulevard (PDMB) in Parañaque City.
Government lawyers said officials of the Public Estates Authority (PEA) conspired to unlawfully pay contractor Jesusito Legaspi, president of the J.D. Legaspi construction firm, the total amount, which was "clearly improper, illegal and without the requisite presidential approval."
