                    [Summary] => The unfortunate disaster last weekend of the first anniversary celebration of ABS-CBN’s noontime show Wowowee painted a grim picture of two things.

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.
