[Title] => US opts out of World-Bank led Peace Fund for Mindanao
[Summary] => The US has decided not to participate in the creation of the World Bank-led Multi-Donor Trust Fund otherwise known as the Peace Fund.
The Department of Finance (DOF) disclosed over the weekend that the US was not participating in the MDTF although it would continue to fund projects in Mindanao.
The US decision follows that of Japan which earlier decided it would not contribute to the MDTF since it already had significant and well-funded livelihood and development projects in Mindanao.

[Title] => US decries role in creation of Peace Fund
[Summary] => As the government initiated bilateral talks with the prospective donors to the Mindanao trust fund, otherwise known as the Peace Fund, the US is protesting an oversight that inadvertently diminished its role as a participant in the creation of the facility.

[Title] => WB, USAID to finance Mindanao Peace Fund
[Summary] => The World Bank and the US Agency for International Development (USAID) have agreed to provide the initial funding for the so-called Peace Fund, a $50-million grant facility intended for development projects in the war-torn areas of Mindanao.

[Title] => Wounded soldiers get checks from STAR
[Summary] =>
Fourteen wounded soldiers confined at the AFP Medical Center's Heroes Ward
received yesterday P10,000 each from The Philippine STAR's "Filipino Soldiers
for Peace Fund."
The fund, beefed up by donations from STAR readers, has raised P3,496,958 for
soldiers wounded or killed in action in Mindanao, notably in the drive to
rescue hostages held by Muslim extremist rebels in Basilan and Sulu.
"One soldier thanked us when we gave him a check," said 1999 STAR Face of the
Year finalist Raisa Mislang, "but we told him that we should be the one
thankful for what they have done."
