[Title] => Steel nerves amidst pressure
[Summary] => It has been two and a half years since the National Steel Corp. (NSC) had shut down its plants in Iligan City, leaving a trail of tears, deprivation and lost dreams in its wake.
How else would you describe a catastrophe that left 2,000 people out of jobs, had put about 80,000 children out of school, deprived the city of P160 million in taxes yearly, and denied the government of close to P1 billion in duties on the raw material the company imports annually?

[Title] => Restart National Steel, restart north Mindanao
[Summary] => Iligan is a city practically built on steel. It began hosting in the ’60s a modest steel mill that government, from a World bank loan, transformed into huge integrated steel works to provide the girders for Southeast Asia’s growth. National Steel Corp. was born from what was once the Iligan Steel Mill in the early ’70s. At its peak National Steel posted annual business of P16 billion, and employed 4,000 workers - a third of Iligan’s total payroll.

[Title] => Maybe Land Bank should be privatized!
[Summary] => 
Land Bank and Metrobank are supposedly wondering if they should put up an asset management company with some foreign banks to take care of the non performing accounts of the two local banks. At about P29 billion each, the two local banks can indeed benefit from some cleaning of their books. The problem is, Land Bank shouldn't have even been in all of those deals. Land Bank's reason for being a government bank is supposedly to help agrarian reform take root.
