Published January 19, 2021 5:06pm Various student councils from the University of the Philippines denounced the move of the Department of National Defense to end its 31-year-old agreement with UP regarding the prohibition on the entry of police and military in its campuses.

MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/ANN): Consumers beware: It may not be real honey that you are buying.
Researchers from the Department of Science and Technology’s Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) have found that at least three of four honey brands being sold in the Philippines are not pure or are entirely fake.
The questionable honey products contained or were almost fully low-cost syrups made from sugarcane and corn, they said, citing tests using the internal standard stable carbon isotope ratio analysis (Iscira).
Results of the study were presented by the PNRI last week as part of this year’s Philippine Nuclear Research and Development Conference.
