How much is too much?

Good morning. Last week, we shone the spotlight on the city of Manila. City Mayor Honey Lacuna shares that six big-ticket infrastructure projects are currently under way for a more 'magnificent' city for Manile?os. Manila is not just a modern city. It's also the ancestral home of the Philippine government.

This year, three PH companies joined Forbes magazine’s list of 200 “Best Under A Billion” publicly traded companies in the Asia-Pacific. The news has been greeted with aplomb, even as the struggling PH economy continues to weigh on the net worth of the country’s richest.

Speaking of richest, how much is too much? Finance Secretary Ralph Recto weighs in on the controversial salaries of the executives of Maharlika Investment Corp.
