MANILA, Philipppines — Opposition senators on Tuesday raised 'grave concerns' over the impending passage of the law creating the Maharlika Investment Fund (MIF), alleging that this venture was not driven by the need to pump-prime the economy but by the interest of 'crony capitalists.' In his turno en contra speech, Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel III detailed 12 grounds on why they should not approve Senate Bill No. 2020 that seeks to put up the MIF, flagging the measure for constitutional and procedural issues.

CAIRO — Rawan al-Waleed was expecting to fly from Khartoum to Cairo last week for a wedding. Instead, she ended up traveling from Sudan to Egypt in a bus her family chartered to escape a war. The family left after a rocket hit Waleed's family home in Khartoum's Al Amarat district on April 18, destroying the bathroom, as fighting raged between Sudan's army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Like other Sudanese who can afford it, they paid 4 million Sudanese pounds ($6,750) to charter a bus to drive about 50 extended family members nearly 1,000 km (620 miles) north through Sudan and across the border to the Egyptian city of Aswan.
