[Title] => The earlier we talk, the better, Palace tells Piatco
[Summary] => Malacañang welcomed yesterday reports that the Philippine International Air Terminals Co. (Piatco) would not likely appeal the Supreme Court decision nullifying its controversial build-operate-transfer agreements with the government.

[Title] => GMA: Defiant Pinoys face SARS sanctions
[Summary] => Overseas Filipinos evading SARS screening tests and quarantine rules on their return home would be punished, President Arroyo said yesterday. It was the government’s strongest move yet to prevent the killer disease from spreading.
"Those who willfully evade health checks at our ports of entry or who falsify their health data will be charged for violations of the law," Mrs. Arroyo said in a statement.
She did not specify the sanctions but said she would work closely with Congress on "long-term" enforcement measures, including forced quarantine.

[Title] => TRO petition filed vs 2 new SBMA directors
[Summary] => The Court of Appeals was asked yesterday to issue a temporary restraining order (TRO) to stop the two new appointees of President Arroyo to the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) board from assuming their post.
The petitioners, former SBMA board members Gaudencio Mendoza and Luis Vera, said the appellate court should declare the recent appointments of Jaime Mendoza and Edralino Cajudo as "null and void and without operative effect" as there were no existing vacancies in the SBMA board at the time of their appointments.
