[Title] => DOTC rushing to favor Chinese firm by today
[Summary] =>
Amid cries of undue haste, the Dept. of Transportation and Communications peddled last month a dubious Chinese telecom deal. Cabinet men in the National Economic & Development Authority in turn approved it in a huff. Today, President Gloria Arroyo no less will witness the hurried contract signing in China with favored ZTE Corp.

[Title] => Operate NAIA-3? But it’s unfinished
[Summary] => When it comes to striking win-win solutions, Mar Roxas is perhaps the most adept in the Cabinet. He’s had a string of them: In the San Miguel-Kirin beer buy-in, the National Steel Corp. revival, and recently the railway annex to Cavite. But when the trade-and-industry secretary broached the operation of Ninoy Aquino International Airport’s contentious terminal-3, he only struck raw nerves of the clashing parties.

[Title] => German partner sues Piatco for $28-M
[Summary] => Piatco is putting up a happy face these days. The NAIA-3 contractor claims to have won last week’s first legal skirmish with the government at the Supreme Court. It also gloats that one of three Senate committees that perused its papers opts for renegotiation, not cancellation, of the contract to build and operate the new international passenger terminal.

[Title] => Kasuhan: Salarin sa Piatco deal
[Summary] => HAYAN, dineklara mismo ni President Gloria Arroyo na null and void ang kontrata ng Piatco para itayo at patakbuhin ang NAIA-3. Kasunod ito ng parehong pasya ni presidential adviser Gloria Tan Climaco at ni Solicitor General Alfredo Benipayo. Nauna nang nagbabala ang NEDA na di dapat ipatupad ang supplemental agreements ng original at amended contracts dahil maraming isiningit na ilegal na probisyon.
Halos tapos na ng Piatco itayo ang NAIA-3 na 25-taong operating concession. Kaya magdedemanda raw ito. Mahigit $550 milyon na kasi ang nagastos sa construction.

[Title] => Gov’t will pay if Piatco doesn’t open NAIA-3
[Summary] => Now he’s talking. Gerry Cunanan, Piatco’s new general manager for NAIA-3, says the airport terminal may not open after all on Dec. 15 as the government suggested. International carriers need more time to move from NAIA-1, he shrugs. Philippine Airlines has no intention either of leaving NAIA-2, where it conveniently links domestic with international flights.
The admission follows weeks of baring fangs by Piatco spokesmen.

[Title] => If NAIA-3 is B-O-T, why did gov’t spend?
[Summary] => The idea to pass the Build-Operate-Transfer Law in 1994 was smart. Government had the duty, but no cash, to build ports, reclaim soil from the sea, raise new cities, pave more highways. So Congress cobbled a law that would let local or foreign investors do the bankrolling and constructing. In exchange, government would lend its lands and give operating franchises to enable them to recover investments over a period of time. After which, the investors would return - transfer - ownership to the government.
