                    [Summary] => Australian Prime Minister John Howard will visit Manila next week to meet with President Arroyo to discuss ways of improving relations between the two countries and to forge a stronger front against terrorism and transnational crime.


It is not clear whether the talks will include fugitive businessman Dante Tan’s controversial escape to Australia. Tan is wanted for the biggest stock exchange manipulation ever to happen in the Philippines.

This was what co-pilot Joseph Gardiner told Air Transportation Office (ATO) chief Adelberto Yap yesterday in recounting the last seconds of Laoag International Airlines (LIA) Flight 585 before it crashed early Monday morning.


Gardiner had recalled that while the aircraft was climbing to 350 feet after takeoff, the right engine lost power, causing the aircraft to lose speed before it crashed, Yap said.
