[Title] => Shell surges ahead as Petron dallies
[Summary] =>
The usually media-shy Shell was in the midst of a flurry of press releases during the past week. The press item on the IPO was a non-event as it did not state anything new but was merely a reiteration of earlier statements that the eventual IPO of local Shell shares would depend on the results of studies about the refinery. This ongoing study has been Shell’s main excuse for the past two years.

[Title] => Getting houseware exports moving
[Summary] => The houseware manufacturing sector, considered as one of the oldest industries in the country, is making a last ditch effort to revitalize itself and halt a five-year decline in production and sales.
Since 2000, the industry has been experiencing a decline of approximately seven percent in exports year on year. This is putting at risk the businesses of more than 5,000 micro-, small- and medium-scale operations employing directly and indirectly more than a million workers.

[Title] => Keeping children in schools
[Summary] => With the increasing economic pressures on the Filipino family, it is no surprise that national statistics are indicating a rise in the country’s child labor figures.
Child labor in the Philippines is loosely defined as work that impedes on their right of children aged five to 15 to secure an education, while exposing them to physical and economic abuse – either in terms of low pay, long hours or hazardous work environments.

[Title] => The peso’s ups and downs
[Summary] => Lately, the peso had started to depreciate again against the US dollar, something that was looked at with some measure of comfort by our kababayans who are dependent on the salaries of their family members working overseas.
Our economists may call this recent depreciation as a weakening of the peso, attributable to the US dollar’s recent strong performance but not necessarily to the weakening of the Philippine economy. Overall, though, the peso is much stronger compared to a few years ago.

While this issue continues to drag on, the daily routine of providing the best service to SSS card holders continues. One of our readers, Oscar Salazar, has come up with some comments. Here they are.

[Title] => A breath of fresh air
[Summary] => Amid all the political and social turmoil that jolted us for the most part of last year, the tourism industry was one of the few sources of pride and good news.
Of course, ours cannot yet compare with the billion-dollar tourism industry of Thailand, but with the growing number in tourist arrivals coupled with the relentless overseas marketing initiatives, the industry is fast making a dent, albeit, still a minor one, on the global tourism market.

[Title] => When will the bleeding stop?
[Summary] => The metro rails are bleeding the government coffers about P5 billion a year in subsidies. If these rails were all state-owned, it would have been more understandable. But one of our three major rail systems, namely the MRT 3, is a private project, and yet the government is forced to pay for the loans taken to build the tracks. This is so because the Ramos administration agreed to give the consortium led by Fil-Estate and Ayala Corp. a guaranteed 15-percent return on equity.
