[Title] => Senate passes dual citizenship, SAMC laws
[Summary] => The Senate passed on second and third readings yesterday two important bills: One granting dual citizenship to Filipinos who have acquired foreign citizenship, and another rehabilitating the country’s banking system through the sale of non-performing assets worth billions of pesos.

[Title] => Dual citizenship, absentee voting bills face rough sailing
[Summary] => The Absentee Voting Bill and a complementary measure, the Dual Citizenship Bill, face rough sailing in the House of Representatives.
"With only two weeks remaining of our first year-long regular session, I doubt whether we can approve these two measures," Majority Leader Neptali Gonzales II said yesterday.
He said many of his colleagues have serious reservations about the two measures that seek to give millions of overseas Filipinos the right to vote in national elections and to give former Filipinos the privilege to reacquire Philippine citizenship.

[Title] => Dual citizenship bill passage assured
[Summary] => Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr. and Senate President Franklin Drilon have agreed on the passage of the proposed Dual Citizenship Bill that would allow Filipinos who have acquired foreign citizenship to become Filipinos again.
The country’s laws do not allow dual citizenship and double allegiance. A Filipino loses his citizenship the moment he swears in as a national of another country.
De Venecia said yesterday Filipinos who have acquired foreign citizenship "have remained Filipinos at heart, and I believe they will love to invest and retire here some day."
