Snippet:
THE recent spate of temporary restraining orders (TROs) and status quo ante orders issued by regional trial courts in Pasig and Navotas has done more than frustrate a long-overdue P85 increase in the daily minimum wage for 1.1 million Metro Manila workers and their dependents. It has also exposed serious weaknesses in labor governance.
