[Title] => EMG favors ‘open skies’ policy with Singapore
[Summary] => The Economic Monitoring Group (EMG) is in favor of an open skies policy only with Singapore but not with six other countries as proposed by certain parties.
The EMG, a inter-agency advisory and coordinating council headed by the Department of Finance (DOF), said it prefers negotiating for increased capacities instead of an open skies policy with other countries with utilization rate of over 70 percent of their entitlements. These countries are South Korea, Germany, Netherlands, Hong Kong and Japan.

[Title] => Manufacturers seek zero tariff on raw materials
[Summary] =>
Local manufacturers are elevating their lobby for a zero tariff on all raw
materials that are not produced locally to the Electronic Coordinating Council
(ECC), as the Tariff Commission finalizes the rationalization of the country's
tariff structure.
In a letter to the Economic Monitoring Group (EMG) the Federation of Philippine
Industries (FPI) said the tariff reduction to zero percent should be discussed
by the ECC, the economic superbody that settles major macro-economic policy
questions.

[Title] => Small businessmen shy away from special financing program
[Summary] =>
Despite liberal terms provided under its P2.5-billion Special Financing
Program, the Social Security System (SSS) has disbursed only P367.8 million to
small and medium enterprises, indicating continued pessimism among small
businessmen.
The low availment rate has been plaguing the program since it was instituted by
government with the SSS and the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) as
fund managers of P2.5 billion each.
The P367.8 million released covers all releases since the fund was instituted
in 1998, showing a total of 33 individual projects.
