An information technology company has raised serious concern over an alleged misleading petition filed recently by the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) before the Supreme Court (SC) to stop them from undertaking a P1.1-billion machine readable passport visa project they won several years ago.

                    [Summary] => 





The Philippines is urging the European Commission (EC) to adopt a level playing field for canned tuna exporters, noting that the issue has been on the agenda for nine years.


Philippine canned tuna is subject to a tariff of 12 percent while canned tuna from African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) nations enjoy duty-free access to the EC market.


Likewise, Philippine canned tuna is subject to a limited quota. Exports exceeding that quota are subject to a higher tariff.
