[Title] => Ukay-ukay ban saddens Baguio folk
[Summary] => BAGUIO CITY "Paano naman kami kung totoo yan (How are we to survive if thats true)?"
This statement of an Igorot stall owner may well echo the common sentiment among city folk against the order of President Arroyo to ban imports of ukay-ukay or wagwagan as imported used clothes are called here.
This summer capital has earned the monicker "Wagwagan City" as the sale of wagwagan (meaning "to dust off") items, starting out as a sidestreet trade in the 60s, has grown into a million-peso industry in just two years.
