[Title] => Petron faces possible boycott
[Summary] =>
The contamination of the town of Concepcion has alarmed mayors of other coastal towns in the province that the oil slick might also reach their communities.
In Tuesday’s meeting of local executives with Iloilo Gov. Niel Tupas, the Iloilo town mayors passed a resolution approving a possible boycott of Petron products should the fuel firm fail to salvage the sunken tanker or solve the environmental problem by the weekend.

[Title] => Focus on domestic tourism
[Summary] => Despite the SARS scare (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), Boracay is still crowded by tourists, many of them foreigners.
"It’s almost impossible to get hotel bookings now for the Holy Week," complained Noring Tonogbanua, secretary of the Bacolod Capitol Lions Club.
One reason for the congestion, especially just before the Holy Week, is that many vacationers had decided to visit provincial and local tourist sites instead of traveling abroad.

[Title] => More killings in Canlaon City
[Summary] => Security was clamped down on entry into the Mt. Canlaon National Park. The reason – Canlaon volcano recently displayed again restiveness. Phivolcs restricted entry into the Canlaon area as the volcano recently displayed unpredictable behavior, repeatedly spewing steam and ashes.
But that did not prevent two more violent deaths in the trouble-rocked Canlaon City. In short, the bloodletting continues in the city, once considered the summer capital of Negros Island.

[Title] => Hype on bombings triggers stampede
[Summary] => A loud explosion purportedly caused by the explosion of an airgun tank Saturday sent spectators of the Unigames in Dumaguete City scampering out of the Lamberto Macias Sports Complex.
"It was like a stampede of wild horses," reported a Visayas Daily Courier correspondent covering the games.
As of press time, there was no additional report on whether anybody was injured in the stampede. Many of those who rushed out of the complex were reportedly hysterical, including some members of the games media bureau who thought that terrorists had exploded a bomb.
