NO TO AIRPORT TERMINAL FEE INTEGRATION: Senate President Franklin M. Drilon receives a rose from Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) who have attended a Senate hearing on Memorandum Circular No.8, series of 2014, issued by the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA), which sanctions the automatic integration of a P550 airport terminal fee airport terminal fee into the cost of airline tickets at the point of sale, on Monday, February 9, 2015. OFW groups have expressed opposition to the memorandum’s implementation, which was earlier halted due to a temporary restraining order issued by the Pasay City Regional Trial Court. Sen. Cynthia Villar, Chair of the Senate Committee on Public Services Subcommittee "E", presided over the hearing. (PRIB Photo by Albert Calvelo/09 February 2015)
