[Title] => Troops open bridge in Maluso in Basilan
[Summary] => Filipino and American soldiers opened yesterday a newly built bridge in Maluso town in Basilan, capping months of infrastructure work as part of the counter-terrorism campaign against the Abu Sayyaf.

Local Marine commander Brig. Gen. Renato Miranda lauded the completion of the US infrastructure projects.

[Title] => US adds more muscle in fight versus Sayyaf
[Summary] => WASHINGTON — Some 280 servicemen from a US Navy construction brigade, known as Seabees, backed by 60 Marine security escorts, arrived in Basilan yesterday to start work on $4 million (P200 million) worth of infrastructure improvements on the strife-torn island.
A Pentagon spokesman, sensitive to the US government’s declared aversion to "nation-building" exercises, emphasized the military value of the infrastructure although Manila has said the additional deployment was a "civic action" of the visiting US forces.

[Title] => Supreme Court: ‘Balikatan’ legal
[Summary] => The Supreme Court (SC) upheld yesterday the validity of the joint RP-US "Balikatan" military exercises in Basilan but sternly warned that US troops should not engage in combat to flush out Abu Sayyaf terrorists who are holding a Filipino nurse and an American missionary couple hostage.
The SC released the ruling, penned by Justice Sabino de Leon, as US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld announced in Washington that the US is nearing a decision to intensify its anti-terrorism assistance to the Philippines.
