NO TO P550 AIRPORT TERMINAL FEE FOR OFW: Senator Cynthia A. Villar, chair of the Senate committee on government enterprises, confronts MIAA General Manager Jose Angel Honrado on his refusal to accede to a senate resolution in which 20 senators appealed to recall the memo integrating the P550 airport terminal fee to the airline tickets for all international passengers, including Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). She questions Honrado on the issuance of the contested MIAA order without conducting public consultation or public hearings. She maintains the act violates the 1995 Migrant Workers’ Act that exempts OFWs from paying the P550 terminal fee.
