Trades like the one that sent Arwind Santos to NorthPort Batang Pier help make the PBA a more balanced league, Commissioner Willie Marcial said on Tuesday.

🔒 Closed Arrest warrant an option if Pharmally's Mago won't appear in House probe, says solon

The issuance of an arrest warrant is an option if Krizle Mago will not appear in the House probe on the government's alleged questionable procurement of medical items despite the subpoena against her, a lawmaker said Wednesday. Mago is the Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corporation official who admitted during a Senate hearing last week that the expiration dates of government-procured face shields were tampered to make them appear new.
