[Title] => Does this move mean Switzerland can no longer block release of Marcos millions?
[Summary] => Just in case many of us here missed the significance of the Swiss government "defrosting" the frozen assets in a Swiss bank of former Energy Minister Geronimo Z. Velasco, who once rode high, wide and handsome during the Marcos dictatorship, the move upheld by the Higher Court of Zurich means that "Switzerland no longer has a legal right to block the Marcos monies".
This is a direct quote from a respected Zurich newspaper, Weltwoche (Worldweek), headlined "Travesty of Justice: Gold Blessing for Dictators".

[Title] => Swiss free $17-M of FM nephew
[Summary] => BERN (AFP) A state attorney said yesterday Swiss authorities had unblocked $17 million in frozen accounts of relatives of the late President Ferdinand Marcos.
