In an interview with The STAR, Roxas disclosed that there were two significant and varying interpretations by the SC with regard to the Safeguards Measures Law.


Likewise, the sequence of the two separate SC decision on the Safeguard Measures affecting cement and steel, Roxas pointed out, also has significant legal implication which government should question.

In a presentation during the 28th Philippine Business Conference, Hernandez  discussed the three trade remedy measures currently being used by the government, namely anti-dumping, countervailing and safeguards.

Of the 35 safeguards, nine cover the registration process, 11 on the security of the ballots and other election paraphernalia, four on actual voting, nine on counting and canvass of votes, Angara said.

In a radio interview yesterday, Roxas said he "does not want any of the local cement  factories to close down as this will result in the loss of thousands of jobs."
