Congratulations,
CAMPI |
|
The first Philippine International Motor Show, or
PIMS, opened on Thursday August 9 at the World Trade Center. It will
go on until Sunday evening.
We congratulate the Chamber of
Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines (CAMPI) for this
achievement. This motor show promises to be the new paragon in this
country. It also possibly matches the ones held in those of our
neighboring countries that are richer than us (and therefore have
more buyers and users of high-end motor vehicles).

The definition of
terrorism under HSA (2)
|
|
The third misconception in the
definition of the crime of terrorism is intimately related to the
second. The intended fear and panic need not be widespread or
