                    [Summary] => 

The rash of bombings in Metro Manila, with the latest one at the SM Megamall
last Sunday, sent shock waves through the local financial markets yesterday,
sending the stock market  and the peso in a tailspin.

At the Philippine Stock Exchange,  the 30-company composite index plunged by
66.59 points -- its lowest finish since Oct. 15,1998 and its biggest single-day
percentage drop in almost three months-- due mainly to broad-based selloff,
while  the peso plummeted  to  nearly 42 to the dollar to close at 41.915 or
24. 50 centavos lower from Friday's close of 41.670 to the dollar.

Traditional telecom companies in Asia are finally taking notice of new
competitors which threaten to eat up their businesses by offering high-speed
Internet and data services.

The new companies normally do not offer basic telephone access but broad band
capabilities to support the huge demand for information, particularly from the
Internet.

Broadband, which is currently an industry by-word, is a transmission medium
capable of supporting a wide range of audio and video frequencies for
multi-media applications.
