MANILA, Philippines -The Asian Development Bank raised its 2023 growth forecast for developing Asia on Tuesday, after China's abrupt loosening of Covid-19 restrictions and reopening of its borders brightened the region's prospects. The Philippines-based lender expects economic growth of 4.8 percent this year, up from its 4.6 percent projection in December. That compares with growth of 4.2 percent last year. Developing Asia refers to 46 members of the ADB, stretching from Kazakhstan in Central Asia to the Cook Islands in the Pacific.

Gerry Arances of Power for People Coalition convener LUCENA CITY — Electricity bills also have pass-through charges that have to be scrapped to benefit Filipino consumers, the environmental group Power for People Coalition (P4P) said on Sunday. Like the pass-through charges on the use of roads, which President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. has now prohibited local governments from imposing, the 'pass-through charges [in] electricity bills are just as ridiculous' as 'both charges are borne by the consumer while the service they pay for is not improved at all,' P4P convener Gerry Arances said in a statement.

The first case of concomitant visceral leishmaniasis and non-ulcerated cutaneous leishmaniasis in the same patient has been reported recently by researchers at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) in São Paulo state, Brazil, in an article published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases. The study was funded by FAPESP and draws attention to novel aspects of a disease that is advancing nationwide. The patient, a nine-year-old boy admitted to the hospital run by the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS), was infected by Leishmania infantum, a protozoan parasite that causes visceral leishmaniasis, and by another parasite of an as-yet unconfirmed species belonging to the genus Crithidia that causes symptoms similar to those of leishmaniasis, or even more severe symptoms in some cases.

Young workers want to be compensated well from the get-go. Their quest to make higher salaries isn't simply a money grab. The oldest Gen Zers have had money on the brain since they first entered the workplace –and many have been dissatisfied with their pay packets. Data shows that as Gen Z enter and rise through the workforce, they're highly pay motivated – and perhaps more than any other generation right now. The laser-focus on pay is not wholly new – 2016 data from jobs site Monster showed 70% of American Gen Zers named salary as their top work motivator, along with health insurance – but several years on, experts say the economic squeeze has made these young workers even more wage-conscious.
