Lately, I be came busy attending to our family business but I always made sure that I come home after a long day. However, the past few days my wife comes home late too and just tells me that she met with her work friends. By the way, she is a housewife so she usually stays at home. I did not make it a big deal

For you to successful ly lodge a criminal case for adultery against your wife, you must prove the following elements: (a) The woman you are suing is married to you; (b) Your wife had sexual intercourse with another man. For the paramour, it is vital that he knows that your wife is married to you at the time of their intercourse.

September 13 and 14, 2022 will be remembered for the groundbreaking Phil ippine Coffee Expo (PCE) in Davao. After a long ab sence and online activities, the thousands attending were obviously thrilled to at least see the face behind the screen so to speak, and re invigorate relationships and marvel at new opportuni ties. Well attended by thou sands, mainly young people, the event was all over social media, allowing an even big ger audience to view what was going on.

For one, it is a rare event that brings together the dif ferent stakeholders at every step of the value chain, from the farmers growing the beans to the processors and the equipment suppliers for processing and eventu ally, those serving it to cus tomers through the coffee shops, both the established ones and start up and pop up barista owned outfits which are popular nowa days.

Fertilizing the cof fee trees will also fertilize the coconut crop, with both benefiting from the added nutrients to cause higher yields.Inall, the event is made special since unlike oth er similar conferences, it broke important ground by visibly exemplifying the val ue chain, which is made pos sible by the fact that it is led by the coffee industry itself. This integration of the vari ous industry subsectors and elements will spur the de velopment of the industry, and create new opportunity for thousands in Mindanao, from growers to coffee shop owners. This makes the in dustry inclusive to a wide set of stakeholders, spread ing the opportunity. With this, the future of the farm to cup value chain is secure. Bravo.

On her part, she said that she missed her old life and just had a coffee ses sion with her so-called “pre vious work friends”. Feeling unconvinced, I asked her best friend a few days after. Her best friend told me that she’s not in the position to intervene. I begged her to tell me what was going on. There, she sent me via Face book Messenger some of the photos and videos of my

dicates strong interest from a new set of farmers and en trepreneurs.Another reason is that the potential for the local coffee industry to grow is enormous as there is a huge local supply gap to fill, and Mindanao is poised to ben efit most from this oppor tunity. Based on the Cof fee Industry roadmap, the country produces 36,171 metric tons of coffee per year in 2015. Of this figure, Mindanao produces almost 2/3 of our total coffee pro duction. Cavite and Batan gas may be the traditional ly known sources of local coffee culture, but it is clear that Mindanao is its future. I believe we as a country import at least double that figure annually. Imagine the opportunity to supply local demand alone. Moreover, as our Mindanao coffees gain renown, demand for it

“We have to ensure that the amendments will ad dress stakeholder concerns on financial viability and bankability of PPP proj ects. Likewise, we need to make sure that ambiguous provisions are revised, as these are risky for the gov ernment, given that they can cause delays in the pro cessing and implementa tion of PPP projects. Lastly, these amendments should be socially beneficial to all parties,” Balisacan said in a statement Friday.

“The amendments to the IRR would serve to fur ther leverage PPPs in spur ring innovation and aiding in the prudent allocation of the government’s resources. This is especially relevant to day, given our tight fiscal po sition. With more resources freed up, the government can increase its spending on priorities such as health, education, and social pro tection. Meanwhile, through PPPs, the private sector could serve as a steadfast partner in areas such as in

The current account represents the sum total of all money inflows and outflows. A deficit indicates more money is leaving the Philippines as payment for imported goods and ser vices.“$20.6 billion will be even higher, will be the record high. But again we need to import all these goods in order to increase capacity in the economy. In doing so, we are able to grow faster, and all of these things will in the long run balance itself out,” BSP Se nior Director Paolo Alegre said.“We shouldn’t be too worried about current ac count deficits or trading goods deficits, since we have enough buffers in the first place, and structural factors such as remittances, BPO revenue...all those will support or neutralize all of these temporal effects on the trade, current account, specifically stemming from Ukraine Russia and mone tary tightening in advanced economies,” he added.

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas on Friday said it is expecting the country’s current account deficit to widen to a record high of $20.6 billion for 2022 mainly due to a surge in importation costs.

Travel receipts growth is also expected to grow by 250 percent, from an earlier forecast of just 100 percent. The increase in tourism income however, is partly due to a low base, as there was no income for this sector last year.

The import bill grew 27.5 percent year-on-year in the first half of 2022, and it is expected to grow 20 percent year-on-year for the full year. This was attributed by the central bank to the surge in cost of imported oil and other fuels.In contrast, export growth was only 7.9 per cent in the first half, and this is expected to slow fur ther to a full year average growth of just 4 percent by the end of 2022.
