                    [Summary] => With only three weeks to go before Congress adjourns its first regular session, the bill that seeks an increase of P125 in the daily minimum wage, which is pending in the House of Representatives, appears headed for the graveyard.


Lawmakers are apparently leaving wage-fixing to tripartite regional wages and productivity boards, which are expected to announce higher wages by the end of the month.


The measure, which has raised concern among employers, has been endorsed by the labor committee. It is now in the plenary sponsorship stage, meaning it is the entire House, no longer the committee, that is tackling it. Any bill that reaches this stage must have the support of the majority bloc.


Not in the case of the P125 wage hike bill. Its authors, who are mostly militant and activist party-list representatives who include Satur Ocampo, Teodoro Casiño and Crispin Beltran, had tried but failed several times to get the bill to the plenary sponsorship level.

The one daily constant in the Philippines right now is that a lot of people disagree on a lot of things.
