[Title] => Singil na $550-M ng Piatco, abuso
[Summary] => GARAPAL talaga itong paksiyon ng Chengs sa Piatco (na minumura at pinagbabantaan ako sa e-mail tuwing sumusulat ako tungkol sa kanila). Nang sabihin ng Malacañang na babayaran ng gobyerno ang lehitimong ginasta sa pagtatayo ng NAIA Terminal-3, hirit agad ng spokesman ng Chengs na bigyan sila ng $550 milyon.

[Title] => Majesty of law in Piatco ruling
[Summary] => Despite its myriad woes, the country has many things to be proud of. It has a replacement President who humbly can ignore the perks of power to wisely forgo a full term. It has a tourism boss quietly restoring a blighted area to its old glory as Intramuros. Its Metro chief is leading a return to basics, driving big and poor squatters alike from sidewalks and railways since they’re not supposed to be there in the first place. And now this: A Supreme Court that ponders the dire economic consequences but upholds the majesty of the law just the same.

[Title] => Piatco stops flow of data to Fraport
[Summary] => Fraport of Germany can no longer track the almost $400 million it spent to build the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 because the Chengs have eased out Fraport’s top executive from Piatco and stopped the flow of data, effectively denying Fraport an audit of expenses.
The Chengs, despite their meager $6-million investment, control 60 percent of Piatco, "an anomaly that has come back to haunt Fraport," Perfecto Yasay Jr., chairman of the MIAA-NAIA Association of Service Operators, said.

[Title] => Piatco: An SC case taken to the press
[Summary] => Stories are being circulated of late about an alleged sinister plot to wrestle ownership and control of Piatco from the Chengs. It’s odd, because they’re all coming out now that the Supreme Court has heard the case and presumably is ready to decide the fate of Piatco and its NAIA-3 contract. Then again, it’s not hard to sense a deliberate design to the stories. Certain publicists in recent years have taken to redefining press freedom as the planting of newspaper stories aimed at influencing or pre-empting the Tribunal.

[Title] => Climaco, Cheng deny Piatco buyout
[Summary] => Senior presidential consultant for strategic projects Gloria Tan-Climaco and the Cheng family have denied the reported buyout of the latter’s shares in the Philippine International Airport Terminal Co. (Piatco), the consortium that built and was supposed to operate the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 (NAIA-3).
Earlier reports said Climaco was leading talks among local investors who are being persuaded to form a group that would consider the possibility of buying out Cheng’s 60 percent interest in Piatco.

[Title] => NAIA-3 won’t be ready by Dec. 15, but that’s OK
[Summary] => FACE-SAVING MOVE: The order of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo for the "soft opening" of the NAIA Terminal 3 on Dec. 15 is a compromise of sorts, but it appears to be the best option at the moment for all parties involved in the $500-million project.
The new terminal will not be ready on Dec. 15 for full-blown operation, but its soft opening which is really a ribbon cutting and a dry run – will not only ease tension and buy time for those in search of a hard solution, but will also save face for some of the major players.

[Summary] => PALACE TRIPS FERNANDO: Wittingly or unwittingly, Malacanang has just cut down the effectiveness of MMDA chairman Bayani Fernando.
By announcing that Fernando looms as the best choice as vice presidential partner of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo when she runs in 2004, the Palace has drawn to him the firepower of political assassins.

[Summary] => GREED WAYLAYS SOLUTION: The dust kicked up by the Piatco fiasco is such that the public is more aware of the problem than the solution.
There is actually a solution and it looks beneficial to all the parties – the government, the public, and the shareholders and suppliers of Philippine International Air Terminals Co. (Piatco).
The only thing that stands in the way is greed, the very element that doomed what otherwise would have been a showcase project.
