MANILA -Social protection for poor Filipinos more efficiently against economic shocks continues to be a vital task for the government as the Philippines remains in the grip of high inflation and other risks occurring here as well as abroad, according to the World Bank. The multilateral lender said this even as it revised upward its forecast growth for Philippine gross domestic product in 2023 to 6 percent from the 5.4-percent forecast in December. The World Bank said the higher forecast was driven by domestic consumption and investment.

Unelected Premier Jeremy Rockliff faces yet another test of his leadership this weekend with the Liberal Party's state council to decide the party's new state President. One candidate for Saturday's vote is Clarence Mayor Brendan Blomeley, who was recently forced by the Liberals State Director Peter Coulston to remove his campaign pitch video from the internet. In the video* Mr Blomeley warned that the party was at a crossroads, in need of "capable, professional leadership" and made it clear he did not support Rockliff's position on the Voice or transgender rights.

New research into "chemobrain" hopes to influence the development of treatments to reduce the impact of cancer therapy on the brain. A grant of nearly $500,000 has been awarded to a UNSW Sydney scientist to investigate how the relationship between gut and brain health is impacted by chemotherapy, in young adults with cancer. Dr Caitlin Cowan, a microbiome-gut-brain relationship expert, returned to the university last year as an NHMRC research fellow and a Superstar of STEM, and will now be exploring an important, under-studied question in cancer science.

The future of the Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority ( HTA ) is uncertain as two bills ( SB 1522 SD 2 and HB 1375 SD 2) propose to repeal HTA . A new brief by the University of Hawaiʻi Economic Research Organization experts argue that neither measure would improve tourism governance. If passed in its current form, the senate bill would establish an Office of Tourism and Destination Management within the Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism ( DBEDT ). It would be governed by a nine-member board of directors appointed by the governor and would essentially do what HTA is presently doing plus tourism research (which is currently housed in DBEDT ).
