AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Habagat Disruptions: Heavy southwest monsoon rains flooded parts of Metro Manila, with some roads in Subic, Zambales deemed impassable and MMDA suspending expanded number coding; Malacañang also ordered work-from-home for government offices and suspended classes in NCR and several Luzon provinces, while the Senate postponed VP Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial to Friday. Court & Politics: Sandiganbayan cancelled Sen. Rodante Marcoleta’s pretrial due to bad weather, resetting it to Aug. 14, as the case over alleged undeclared campaign donations and PD 46 violations continues. Power & Economy: Rooftop solar adoption is expected to push down electricity spot prices, but the DOE still has “no clear fix” for power supply problems as analysts warn growth remains tough in the second half after Q2 GDP slowed to 2.3%. Business & Governance: DEPDev said red tape persists despite ease-of-doing-business reforms; DOF moves to shutter 21 state firms to free funds, while a flagship PPP for a UP-PGH cancer hospital failed to attract any bidder. Security & Public Safety: PNP will posthumously honor a Negros cop who died trying to rescue colleagues in a river; in Sulu, police plan to replicate the Indanan model for voluntary firearm surrender. Travel & Trade: Mactan-Cebu Airport will add new international routes, and the UK opened consultations for deeper trade ties ahead of possible CPTPP accession. Sports: PBA games were rained out and venues adjusted; volleyball: Alas Pilipinas won SEA V Cup Leg 2 silver after beating Indonesia.
