                    [Summary] => Former Smart Communications marketing whiz Anastacio Martirez, whose out-of-the-box strategies made parent Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) the most profitable company in the country and Smart the biggest cellular operator, is now besieged with offers left and right from foreign companies that want him to be their chief executive. 


Contrary to reports (not in The STAR) that Martirez has accepted the CEO post at Indonesian cellular phone company Mobile 8, he told The STAR that he was never approached nor did he approach said company.

Smart Communications has just announced the resignation of two of its top officials, citing personal reasons. But there is more to the news than meets the eye, highly placed sources told The STAR yesterday.
