MANILA  -By 2055, the Philippines—with the assistance from the Japanese government—is envisioned to have better connectivity and train commuting experience that is at par with Tokyo, Shanghai and Seoul through the establishment of railway networks in the capital and nearby densely populated regions. This 'railway renaissance,' according to Transport Secretary Jaime Bautista, is set to be realized via a 30-year rail master plan covering the National Capital Region, Central Luzon and Calabarzon. The Department of Transportation (DOTr), Japan International Cooperation Agency (Jica) and Asian Development Bank (ADB) recently inked their partnership to work on the game plan, which is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2026.

This month was International Pain Awareness Month, a time dedicated to improving our understanding of chronic pain , an often invisible condition that affects one in five Canadians across the country. That's roughly eight million Canadians, ranging from children to older adults, whose quality of life can be severely impacted for months, even years, because of pain. It could be your family, your friends or your neighbours who are silently struggling. We have to recognize that chronic pain can take a heavy toll on people's mental and physical health.

WASHINGTON — The House passed a sweeping defense bill  Friday that provides an expected 5.2% pay raise for service members but strays from traditional military policy with Republicans add-ons blocking abortion coverage, diversity initiatives at the Pentagon and transgender care that deeply divided the chamber. 'Our national security should never be politicized for culture wars and partisan games.' — Rep. Jim Costa (D-Fresno) Democrats voted against the package, which had sailed out of the House Armed Services Committee on an almost unanimous vote weeks ago before being loaded with the GOP priorities during a heated late-night floor debate this week.
