[Summary] => Philip Morris Philippines (PMPh) is urging government to regulate the tobacco industry strongly and effectively in the Philippines and elsewhere in Asia.
The call comes at a time when the World Health Organization (WHO) and its member states discuss a proposed worldwide Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) that can well shape how tobacco products are sold here.
"Regulation will be good for the Philippines, for our consumers, and for our business," said PMPh corporate affairs director Renato Salud in underscoring Philip Morris’ support for WHO’s F

[Title] => DECS foils another fund scam
[Summary] => Education Secretary Raul Roco revealed yesterday another attempt to secure the release of P357.9 million purportedly for the purchase of school supplies for six regions.
He said the fake request form for fund release was addressed to President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, as did an earlier attempt to secure the release of P422.84 million also purportedly for supplies of public schools.
Both request forms were dated Jan. 19, a day before Mrs. Arroyo took her oath as the new president at the culmination of People Power 2.

[Title] => No lavish parties, DECS tells schools
[Summary] => Education Secretary Andrew Gonzalez urged all elementary and high schools nationwide to do away with lavish Christmas parties so students can focus on the true essence of the Yuletide season.
"We must make the Yuletide season truly meaningful. Let us celebrate this year’s Christmas in the spirit of love, peace and thanksgiving," he said.
Gonzalez noted that although the season calls for merry-making, schools should refrain from holding extravagant celebrations.

[Title] => Estrada scores 'Jericho’ organizers
[Summary] => President Estrada slammed yesterday organizers of last Thursday’s so-called "Jericho march" meant to press him to step down.
The President charged that the marchers brought along schoolchildren who were being "brainwashed and politicized" instead of being allowed to attend their classes.

[Title] => Estrada orders DECS to ban young students from rallies
[Summary] => Too young to rally?
President Estrada ordered Education Secretary Andrew Gonzalez yesterday to prohibit teachers and school administrators from bringing elementary and high school children to opposition rallies disguised as prayer assemblies.
"Let us work and pray instead of holding rallies and demonstrations where they just waste their efforts, they just get rained on and bear the heat of the sun. Pity them who just get sick because of this, especially our poor children," Mr. Estrada said.
