[Summary] => The country’s biggest labor union expressed support for Charter change (Cha-cha) yesterday, saying constitutional reform would reinvigorate the economy and create a pro-labor atmosphere in the country.
Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) spokesman Alexander Aguilar said "structural flaws" in the Constitution should be corrected immediately so there would be no need for workers in the C, D and E brackets to hold rallies and beg Congress for a salary increase.

[Title] => House okays Anti-Smuggling Act
[Summary] => The House of Representatives has approved the proposed Anti-Smuggling Act of 2005 which Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr. said would help cure the country’s fiscal deficit problem by combating outright and technical smuggling.
He said smugglers deprive the treasury of about P150 billion a year.
The anti-smuggling bill plugs loopholes in the Tariff and Customs Code "by providing key systematic solutions that will make it easier for the authorities to detect smuggling," De Venecia said.
