[Title] => Hike in SSS premiums not yet final
[Summary] => Faced with an uproar from different sectors, Malacañang said yesterday the plan to increase SSS premiums is still being studied.
"That has not been decided with finality," said Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona, adding that the SSS Board headed by Administrator Vitaliano Nañagas is still studying the matter.
The other day, President Arroyo told Palace reporters about the plan to hike SSS premiums gradually. This, she added though, will be accompanied by an increase in SSS benefits.

[Title] => GMA, ninang nina Aga at Charlene
[Summary] => Tinanggap na ni Pangulong Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo ang imbitasyon na mag-ninang siya sa kasal nina Aga Muhlach at Charlene Gonzales sa Mayo. Ito ang inihayag ni Press Undersecretary Roberto Capco sa isang pulong-balitaan kahapon kaugnay ng pagbisita ng magkasintahan sa Pangulo.
Gaganapin ang kasal ng dalawang artista sa Baguio City.
Nabatid din kay Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona na, sa Sabado, muling aakyat ang Pangulo sa Baguio City para rin mag-anak sa isa pang kasalan.
Ikakasal ang regional police officer at isang police security aide ng Pangulo.

[Title] => Government men to have longer vacation
[Summary] => All government offices will have only a half-day’s work on April 11, Holy Wednesday, to kick off a long Lenten break, Malacañang announced yesterday.
Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona said the shortened work day will give workers more time to be with their families and provide greater convenience to those traveling to the provinces.
"We have no authority over private firms so we can only suspend work in government offices. The half-day suspension will give our government workers a longer Holy Week," he said.

[Title] => Palace on corruption survey: Don’t look at us
[Summary] => Don’t look at us.
Malacañang said yesterday that a recent survey that showed the Philippines as the fifth most corrupt among 12 Asian nations must have been referring to the previous administration.
Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona said the results of the survey by the Singapore-based Political and Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC) likely pertained to the deposed Estrada administration since the Arroyo administration is only two months old.

[Summary] => The jury is still out on the proposed Maynilad water rate hike petition, Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona said yesterday.
Corona belied reports (not in The STAR) that President Arroyo and the Cabinet have taken up the recommendation of Finance Secretary Alberto Romulo to reject the Maynilad petition for higher water rates through the automatic currency exchange rate adjustment (CERA).

[Title] => Incarceration of Erap should be based on law - ROSES AND THORNS by Alejandro R. Roces
[Summary] => We are very glad that Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona has debunked press reports that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo was gauging public opinion on the possible incarceration of deposed president Joseph Estrada in the event that the charges that led to his impeachment finally reach our courts. The loss of immunity from criminal charges of an ex-president is a matter of law and not a question that should be settled on a survey of public sentiment. The matter is now in the hands of the Ombudsman. It is the Ombudsman who will decide the proper legal steps to take on this question.

[Title] => Palace warns water firm over payment suspension
[Summary] => Malacañang warned the Maynilad Water Resources Inc. yesterday against implementing its notice of force majeure to suspend payments of concession fees to the Metropolitan Waterways and Sewerage System (MWSS).
Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona issued the warning when Maynilad served the default notice to the MWSS Thursday after President Arroyo frowned on the proposed water rate increase. Maynilad said the increase was to recover company losses due to peso-dollar fluctuations in the repayment of foreign loans.

[Summary] => There will be no exception to the ban on second jobs for Cabinet men, Malacañang said yesterday.
Presidential Spokesman Renato Corona said newly designated Energy Secretary Lito Camacho will not serve in concurrent capacity as chairman of the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), a position he held prior to his appointment to the Cabinet.
"There is no truth to speculations that Mr. Camacho will be allowed to hold an extra post as DBP chairman," Corona said. "In the first place, that is prohibited by the Constitution."

Ayon sa Pangulo, sinabihan niya si Defensor na hindi niya ito pipigilan kung nais nitong kumandidatong muli sa pagka-kongresista dahil magiging mahusay itong mambabatas.
Ipinaliwanag ng Pangulo na, kung aalis si Defensor sa Gabinete, dahilan dito ang pagkandidato nito at hindi sa dahilang hindi nito puwedeng makatrabaho ang ibang hinirang na opisyal.
