Cebu

EXPLAINER: Mayor Rama's alleged 'brokering' to privatize MCWD may show motive in sacking Daluz, 2 directors. But it's not evidence the complaints against them are false. Still privatization is a crucial issue to MCWD consumers, which needs to be discussed openly, fully.

EXPLAINER: Cebu Provincial Board ordinance requires national agencies to consult Capitol on national projects and secure PB’s prior approval. Sec. 27 of Local Government Code explicitly supports LGU power. Problem could be bigger than DOJ chief Remulla first thought.

EXPLAINER: Is face-mask wearing in Cebu City over? Still voluntary. In schools, businesses, most public spaces, with owner/manager/head of office as decider on rule and enforcement. No official declaration of end to anti-Covid masks although Mayor Mike’s EO expired last December 31.

RIGHTS OF PASSAGE. A bill of rights for air passengers will not force airline companies to prioritize the welfare of their passengers over the bottom line of survival and profitability.
