The CoA ruling put an end to a legal fight over Forest Hill 9-KO, the fiercely disputed land measuring 2,229 hectares that left government and Bamalete at odds. Now with Bamalete granted court victory, Kgosi Mosadi who was among the respondents for the appeal had asked her tribe to pray for her as she faces enemies from both outside and within. Speaking at the Bamalete main Kgotla in Ramotswa after the victory on Tuesday, Kgosi Mosadi said: "I am now treading carefully because there are some people with bad intentions out there.

How should a company reward employees who blow the whistle on anomalous deals that could have cost the firm's owners tens of millions of pesos more — over a hundred million pesos, actually — and help stop the transaction. Most companies would give such an employee a commendation or even a promotion. But apparently not at Philippine National Bank, where a group of employees who red-flagged a transaction covering the cost of repairs for taipan Lucio Tan's private plane, were instead suspended. Biz Buzz was furnished a copy of the complaint letter written by a concerned employee addressed to a PNB director pleading for an explanation why she and her colleagues were suspended after blowing the whistle on a reimbursement request by a person closely linked to the most powerful faction of the Tan family.

The intent is clearly to bring cheer, and the production at Dorset Theatre Festival saws hard at the humor. The verbal wit is excellent. But the show uses excess to make up for a lack of structure and is ultimately more slapdash than comic.

General Santos City—Here in this avowed tuna capital of the country, many of us are reeling from at least two weeks of living in very high temperatures (33-37 degrees Celsius). The local shopping malls have become some cool refuge for many of us who do not have air conditioners at home. I remember that when my small family of four (two parents and two children) migrated here in 1998, the city was also on its third month of enduring a long dry spell, the very first El Niño we experienced then. It was quite difficult since we used to live in Cotabato City, where rain was almost a weekly occurrence then.
