South Korean Media Reports Rumored Daewoo Sell-Off
South Korean company Daewoo International may be looking to offload its offshore gas interests in Burma, according to reports emerging from Seoul this week.
Reports in two newspapers both said that the company might be trying to sell its 60 percent stake in the Shwe gas field amid corporate restructuring at the firm, which is majority owned by South Korean steel giant POSCO.
The gas field in Burmese waters of the Bay of Bengal reached full production in late 2013, and feeds the Chinese-backed Shwe gas pipeline. The pipeline had begun transporting gas from the Arakan State coast at Kyaukphyu to China's Yunnan province.
The project is reportedly projected to generate more than $350 million a year for Daewoo. The company is the lead developer of the Shwe Gas Field—in which India's ONGC Videsh, the Gas Authority of India Limited and South Korean firm KOGAS also have interests—and also holds a stake in another offshore block known as A-3.
"As POSCO is seeking to sell Daewoo International's gas field in Myanmar by equity spinoff, there are growing concerns that it could undermine the corporate value of Daewoo International," Business Korea reported on Wednesday.
The same day, the Korea Times said that POSCO had been forced to comment on the rumors by the Korean stock exchange.
"POSCO said it has been reviewing a wide range of steps to improve its financial soundness, adding that it hasn't decided whether to dispose of Daewoo International's natural resources business," the Korea Times said. "The steelmaker said it will make a decision on the matter in June."
The same report also quoted a Daewoo International spokesman denying the plans of a sale, but admitting that the parent company had been studying "measures to enhance its financial health."
Japan's Marubeni to Build Burma's Biggest Gas Power Plant
Japanese trading company Marubeni Corporation has signed an agreement with the Burmese government to begin work toward what would be Burma's largest gas-fired power station.
The company said in an announcement on Thursday that it had agreed with the Ministry of Electric Power to conduct a feasibility study on the proposed 400 megawatt plant in Rangoon's Thanlyin Township. It would provide power to the Thilawa Special Economic Zone and the grid serving Burma's biggest city, where electricity supply is struggling to keep up with rapidly growing demand.
The deal involves Marubeni forming a consortium with local tycoon Chit Khaing's Eden Group and Thailand's Global Power Synergy Public Company.
"This project will be the largest gas-fired power plant in Myanmar," the statement said. "Installing new power generation capacity is an urgent issue in Myanmar because of its rapidly increasing electricity demand due to recent economic growth.
"Especially, in the Yangon region, which is the largest commercial region in Myanmar, the shortage of electricity will increase in severity due to the entry of many companies and factories."
Sheraton Hotel Group Announces New Rangoon Site
The company behind the Sheraton hotel chain is set to open a 375-room hotel in the center of Rangoon, according to a statement.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide will operate the Sheraton Yangon Hotel in Tamwe Township close to Kandawgyi Lake under an agreement with the hotel's owners, Family Business Group Hotel Limited.
This year has also seen new hotels in Rangoon opened by international chains Novotel and Best Western, as investors look to capitalize on growth in both business and tourist arrivals in Burma's economic hub.
"Sheraton Yangon Hotel will open during an exciting period in the country, spurred by a major investment from the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism that has encouraged 4 million international arrivals in 2015 alone," the statement said, citing the government's targeted arrivals figure for this year.
"We are delighted to partner with Starwood to introduce the company's first hotel in Myanmar and are eager to continue the relationship by targeting additional development opportunities across the country," Family Business Group Hotel Limited CEO Ko Ko Latt was quoted in the statement saying.
Ko Ko Latt is also an active member of Burma's Muslim community and is the founder of the Myanmar Muslim Business Entrepreneur Association, according to his LinkedIn page.
Two More Foreign Banks Set to Open Branches Next Week
Thailand's Bangkok Bank and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) are both reportedly set to open branches in Rangoon on Tuesday next week.
Four banks have already opened their doors to customers in Burma's biggest city in recent months, although they are currently limited to providing certain non-retail banking services.
Reuters reported that Bangkok Bank had received its license from the Burmese government and will open on June 2.
"The new branch will provide a full range of financial services and connect to the bank's international network to support customers doing business in Myanmar," Reuters said, citing a statement from Bangkok Bank President Chartsiri Sophonpanich.
The Myanmar Times reported that ICBC has also been issued permission to open the same day, citing a statement from the Central Bank.
Of the nine overseas banks awarded licenses to operate in Burma—the first foreign banks allowed in the country for more than 50 years—Australia's ANZ, Mizuho of Japan and Malaysia's Maybank are still to open branches.
State-Owned Firm Seeks Partner for LPG Terminal
The state-owned Myanmar Petrochemical Enterprise (MPE) is inviting private-sector bids to be involved in a project to build a liquified petroleum gas (LPG) terminal to serve Rangoon.
State media reported Friday that the company run by Naypyidaw's Ministry of Energy called on local and foreign companies to submit expressions of interest to enter a joint venture for the project.
MPE wants to build a new terminal at the current site of its No. 1 Refinery in Thanlyin, Rangoon Division, and a prospective partner would also have to develop a supply chain business in Burma "encompassing importation, storage, wholesale distribution and marketing, the ministry said," according to the Global New Light of Myanmar.
"According to the ministry's announcement, investors must have extensive experience in the LPG industry," the report said, adding that the ministry also planned to set up a laboratory providing services to the petroleum and petrochemical industries.

Many of us have dogs as pets. While most of our pet dogs are loving and gentle, some, however may have vicious propensities. If they bite someone, you may be responsible for damages. On the other hand, for those of you who have been bitten or injured by a dog, you cannot recover money just based upon the fact that the dog bit you. In order to recover money damages for your injuries, you would have to show that the dog had vicious propensities. In other words, you would have to prove that the dog had the propensity for being wild, vicious, ferocious or the like. As a layperson, you may not know how to learn about the history of the dog. On the other hand, the experienced attorneys at Worby Groner Edelman have handled many cases where the plaintiff has been bitten or injured by a dog with a vicious past. During the various phases of your lawsuit, your attorney, along with an experienced investigator, will be able to determine if the dog who bit you had a violent past. So, if you, a family member or anyone you know has been the victim of a dob bite, call us at Worby Groner Edelan. We will answer any questions you have and remember, there is never a fee unless we are successful!


MEXICO CITY — President Donald Trump's decision to unilaterally slap tariffs on imports of steel and aluminum has upended the NAFTA renegotiation and threatens to derail talks that were already politically and economically sensitive for all three countries.
Canadian, Mexican and U.S. government officials and industry representatives, gathered here for the seventh negotiating round, were sent scrambling when Trump announced plans to levy tariffs of 25 percent on steel imports and 10 percent on aluminum imports to protect U.S. national security interests.
While negotiators have continued to meet, the tone has changed as Canadian and Mexican representatives try to figure out the impact on their countries and whether their leaders will retaliate if Trump doesn't backtrack.
"Why are we signing a trade deal with a country that would unilaterally decide to restrict certain sectors?" said Jorge Guajardo, a former Mexican ambassador to China who now works as a senior director at McLarty Associates in Washington.
Since the announcement, negotiators have been "just going through the motions — that's it," Jerry Dias, president of Canada's largest labor union, Unifor, told POLITICO on the sidelines of the talks on Friday.
Others closely involved in or following the talks downplayed the idea the tariffs would lead any country to withdraw from the agreement, but there is consensus that Trump's play will make an already contentious negotiation only more difficult.
The U.S. has put forward proposals on issues including dispute settlement, government procurement and automotive rules of origin that its NAFTA partners have found unworkable — and now they are even less likely to find reason to compromise.
"Once it becomes political, you have to have a winner, you have to have a loser, and that just makes it more difficult," Guajardo said.
Both Canada and Mexico — which together account for about 90 percent of U.S. steel exports — hold out hope they might be carved out of the final tariff decision, which the White House is expected to finalize sometime next week. But Trump has offered no indication there will be any exemptions.
Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland vowed on Thursday to take "responsive measures," if Canada is affected, calling any restrictions against imports "absolutely unacceptable." At the same time, Mexico has said it will consider all its options if it is targeted, including potentially taking safeguard action under Section 201 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Mexico, in particular, has been careful not to make any official declarations or threats until Trump acts. The hope in all three countries is that Trump will take to heart the widespread backlash from businesses, trading partners and Republicans in Congress and soften or narrow his course.
Optimistic views that the tariff news and fallout could remain separate from the talks are tempered by the fact that steel and aluminum are central to some industries that were already in the spotlight in the NAFTA renegotiation. Autos, for example, have emerged as one of the thorniest policy issues, and talks on rules of origin could now be deeply affected by the forthcoming tariffs.
And even as the White House maintains that "it's got nothing to do with NAFTA," as Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro said Friday, frantic chatter about what the tariffs will look like and the effect they could have on the negotiations continued to course throughout the halls of the Camino Real, the hotel here where officials are meeting.
"The looming storm clouds on steel and aluminum are a serious risk to world trade and to the NAFTA negotiations," Peter Clark, a Canadian international trade strategist, wrote in a column on Friday.

Lenvatinib Starting Dose Confirmed for Refractory RAI-Refractory DTC Indication
Nichole Tucker
A phase 2 clinical trial of radioactive iodine–refractory differentiated thyroid cancer demonstrated that the lenvatinib starting dose of 24 mg is superior to the lower dose of 18 mg, missing the noninferiority primary end point of the study.
A phase 2 clinical trial (Study 221, NCT02702388) of radioactive iodine (RAI)–refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) demonstrated that the lenvatinib (Lenvima) starting dose of 24 mg is superior to the lower dose of 18 mg, missing the noninferiority primary end point of the study, Eisai Inc, announced in a press release.1
The proper starting dose for lenvatinib in the study was determined based on the objective response rate (ORR) at week 24 in addition to the incidences of grade 3 or higher treatment-emergent adverse events. Reportedly, these toxicities were similar between the 2 treatment arms.
"These findings help reinforce the efficacy and safety of Lenvima for patients living with RAI-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer while supporting the appropriate starting dose for these patients," said Takashi Owa, PhD, chief medicine creation and chief discovery officer, Oncology Business Group at Eisai, in a statement. "Studies like this post-marketing trial represent Eisai's continued commitment to prioritizing patients' needs and safety through the ongoing examination of our medicines. We would like to thank the patients, their families, and clinical investigators for their participation in Study 211, and we look forward to presenting the full results of this study at an upcoming medical meeting."
Study 211 is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial that sought to determine whether a lower starting dose could provide comparable efficacy with a better safety profile. The coprimary end points are ORR between the 2 starting dose levels and the percentage of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs). The secondary end points include progression-free survival (PFS), PFS after next-line therapy (PFS2), the number of participants with AEs, time to treatment discontinuation due to an AE, the number of dose reductions, the time to first dose reduction, area under the curve of lenvatinib, presence/absence of biomarkers, and health-related quality of life.
Inclusion criteria note that patients must have had histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of DTC, which includes subtypes like papillary and follicular thyroid cancer subtypes. Patients were also required to have measurable disease confirmed by central radiographic review, evidence of disease progression within 12 months prior to enrolling, iodine-131 refractory/resistant disease, an ECOG performance status of 0 to 2, an adequately controlled blood pressure, as well as adequate blood coagulation function and liver function. Patients with brain metastasis were allowed if their condition was clinically stable, asymptomatic, and off steroids for a month prior to joining the study.
A total of 152 patients were enrolled in the study and randomized 1:1 to received either 24 mg of lenvatinib or an 18-mg dose. At the higher dose level, lenvatinib was administered once daily, with dose reduction carried out based upon the prior dose (24, 20, 14, 10, or 8 mg), which is also administered once daily. The 18-mg arm followed the same dosing schedule.
Study 211 findings meet a post-marketing commitment to the FDA and European Medicines Agency following approval and Priority Review designations in more than 50 countries as treatment of patients with locally recurrent or metastatic, progressive, RAI-refractory DTC.1,2
Lenvatinib is a kinase inhibitor with indications as treatment of patients with locally recurrent or metastatic, progressive, RAI-refractory DTC; as first-line treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma; as well as in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for the treatment of patients with advanced endometrial carcinoma that is not microsatellite instability-high or mismatch repair deficient, who have disease progression following prior systemic therapy, and are not candidates for curative surgery or radiation.
Toxicities mentioned on the lenvatinib drug label that can occur in patients with DTC include hypertension, cardiac dysfunction, arterial thromboembolic events, renal failure or impairment, proteinuria (6%), diarrhea, fistula formation, and gastrointestinal perforation, QT interval prolongation (9%), hypocalcemia, hemorrhagic events, and thyroid-stimulating hormone suppression/thyroid dysfunction.
The drug label also notes that AEs are observed in ≥30% of patients. The most common are hypertension (73%), fatigue (67%), diarrhea (67%), arthralgia/myalgia (62%), decreased appetite (54%), decreased weight (51%), nausea (47%), stomatitis (41%), headache (38%), vomiting (36%), proteinuria (34%), palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (32%), abdominal pain (31%), and dysphonia (31%).
In terms of serious AEs, which only occur in about 2% of patients, the most common include pneumonia (4%), hypertension (3%), and dehydration (3%). Data shows that dose reductions are necessary for about 68% of patients with DTC who receive lenvatinib. Most commonly, dose reductions were caused by hypertension (13%), proteinuria (11%), decreased appetite (10%), and diarrhea (10%). Hypertension (1%) and asthenia (1%) were the most common AEs leading to treatment discontinuation.

U.S. District Judge Cecilia M. Altonaga, who is handling the consolidated Fixodent and Super PoliGrip lawsuits filed over zinc poisoning from denture creams, issued an order designating lawyers to serve in leadership positions in the MDL, or Multidistrict litigation. These denture cream lawyers will perform services that benefit all of the plaintiffs involved in the litigation during the pretrial proceedings.
On June 9, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation centralized all federal denture cream lawsuits before Judge Altonaga in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, for coordinated discovery and pretrial litigation.
All of the complaints involve similar allegations that the plaintiffs have suffered severe injuries caused by denture cream zinc poisoning when high amounts of zinc entered their body from the use of Fixodent or Super PoliGrip adhesives. The increased zinc levels in the body can cause copper depletion, known as hypocupremia, which is known to cause permanent neurological problems like neuropathy, numbness, tingling, pain, weakness, loss of sensation, loss of balance, paralysis and difficulty breathing.
According to a Case Management Order issued July 13, 2009, Judge Altonaga appointed two denture cream attorneys, Andy Alonso and Scott Weinstein, to serve as Co-Lead Counsel for all plaintiffs. These attorneys will act as the spokespersons for all plaintiffs at pretrial proceedings and in response to inquiries from the court. They will also be the attorneys who will submit and argue motions, examine witnesses at hearings and negotiate stipulations and potential settlements with the defendants, which would apply to all cases.
The court also appointed 10 lawyers to serve on a Plaintiffs' Steering Committee (PSC), who will share in the responsibilities for conducting discovery and other work that has the common benefit for all plaintiffs.
There are currently at least 18 individual cases consolidated before Judge Altonaga, including 14 Super PoliGrip lawsuits against GlaxoSmithKline PLC and 4 Fixodent Lawsuits against Proctor & Gamble. In addition, as denture cream lawyers throughout the United States file additional cases in various federal districts throughout the country, they will be transferred to the Southern District of Florida for pretrial proceedings.
Although the lawsuits are consolidated in an MDL, each of the cases remain individual claims and will be returned back to the court where they were originally filed for trial if they cases to do not settle or otherwise resolve during pretrial litigation.

Bought myself my dream phone today! | Mary Jane's Niche Bought myself my dream phone today!
Yesterday my phone broke! Technically it's not really my cellphone, it's my brother – Vinboy's cellphone but I'm the one whose using it because I need it more than him. I use it to communicate with everyone. And most importantly I use it for my work. My cellphone, the one I was using before I had to borrow Vinboy's, was also broken because I wasn't taking care of it. I mean I don't use it properly. I charge it anytime I want even if the battery is not yet low or dead. And I leave it charging for more than 8 hours sometimes because I just leave it there while I sleep. So that's some of the reasons why I was using my brother's phone. And I'm really sorry I broke it. But I will try to have it fixed of course so he can still use it.
I've been using my old cellphone (before it broke) for more than 2 years so I guess it's about time that I buy myself a new one. I've been wanting a Nokia 6300 phone ever since I saw it online. FYI – it was the best selling cellphone in the UK for more than a year after it was released. And it's still one of the most well-loved phones of today. I really like slim phones so that's why it caught my attention. And its specifications are also way up there! It's stylish, classical and very high quality too. But I couldn't afford it before because there were more important things than buying a new phone.
Yesterday I didn't have a cellphone. I didn't know what to do! I wasn't even able to sleep. I kept thinking how I can communicate with Tim and my friends and everyone! And I couldn't even access my Chikka account! I can't register with other free text sites because I won't be able to verify it without my cellphone number. Thankfully there's the INTERNET! The joy of emailing and instant messaging. I wouldn't have survived without it. I asked for help from my friends who were online. I asked JonhaR, Teddy and my other brother – Sev(who was in school and also thankfully online) to text Tim and inform him that I sent him an email and could he go online so we could IM as well. So around 4PM Tim finally got online. He was out traveling again so that's what took him so long to IM me. I told him about what happened to my bro's phone. And he suggested that I use his phone instead. To make the long story short, we asked Sev if he could pick up Tim's cellphone after his class. Sev agreed and he arrived around 9PM with Tim's cellphone. Then I was able to text! Tim has a spare phone by the way, his old beat up Nokia (forgot what unit) which is still functioning.
And you know what the first message I received was? It was from Miss Lareza of Callbox's Human Resources Department telling me that I can get my backpay the next day (which is today). I immediately thanked the Lord after reading that text! He really loves me. He doesn't want me and my job to suffer. He has perfect timing. Or a great sense of humor. I think he wanted to test my patience and how I will handle the situation – a day without a cellphone (naks!). Just to clear things up – I'm not materialistic okay. I just need certain stuffs for my daily life.
So today, I bought myself my dream phone after getting my backpay from Callbox! I'm learning how to use it right now. And I'm loving every single part of it. It's more than I expected. Again I thank the Lord for always making a way. And for all the blessings he has given me. I'm so blessed!
and it came with this cute red pouch too!

Watertown Daily Times, N.Y.
Fort Drum soldiers take action at Arsenal Street crash scene Thursday night

Oct. 16—WATERTOWN — A dinner off post at Applebee's for five Fort Drum soldiers turned into a moment of quick thinking and immediate action, credited for saving three people in a violent, fiery crash in front of the Price Chopper plaza on Thursday night.
Working together, three soldiers pulled two injured people from a pickup truck that burst into flames, while two others ran over to the nearby Applebee's restaurant for a fire extinguisher to put out a fire underneath the vehicle, they said.
Sgt. Major Jake Smith was just pulling into the plaza to go to Applebee's when he saw a Dodge Ram pickup speeding down Arsenal Street right before it smashed into a Dodge Durango leaving the Speedway convenience store shortly before 10 p.m., he said.
The other four soldiers had just finished dinner and were about to pull out of the plaza when they saw and heard the crash. All five soldiers rushed over to the crash scene to see what they could do to help.
"It was a big explosion and the next thing we knew, the whole block, the lights went out for about 30 seconds," Spc. Shane Cockerham said.
Sgt. Major Smith, a veteran combat soldier with 15 deployments under his belt, first ran to his vehicle to pull out a trauma bag that he carries around with him, just in case.
Unbeknownst to them, one victim was still trapped in the driver's side of the pickup.
"The car was quickly becoming engulfed in flames," Sgt. Major Smith said. "We tried to kick the door in multiple times. We tried to break the seat. I got my knife out and I popped the airbags."
One of the soldiers crawled under the truck as the flames spread.
"He was literally under the vehicle, literally under the vehicle trying to put it out," Sgt. Major Smith said of the other soldier. "He absolutely risked his life to buy us time to try to get the individual out of the vehicle. It's not what a lot of people would do."
When firefighters arrived, they were able to use Jaws of Life to get the third victim out of the pickup. Several bystanders helped with the injured before first responders got to the scene, police said. The soldiers downplayed their actions, saying that they don't think of themselves as heroes, that they only did what they have been trained to do.
Lt. Col. Josh Jacques, the 10th Mountain Division public information officer, said the four young soldiers have already been nominated for Soldier Medals for what they did.
"If it weren't for these young soldiers and their quick action and fierce reaction to get the victims out, I believe the three would have died," Sgt. Maj Smith said.
The pickup, occupied by a 20-year-old driver and two 18-year-old male passengers, was traveling west on Arsenal Street when it collided with the Durango, driven by a 44-year-old man, police said.
The driver of the pickup was taken to Carthage Area Hospital where he was treated and released, police said. One of the passengers of the pickup was transported to Samaritan Medical Center where he was treated and released. The other passenger was transported to Samaritan Medical Center before being transferred to Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital in Syracuse, where he is listed as stable, police said.
The driver and passenger in the Durango were taken to Samaritan Medical Center where they were treated and later released.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call 315-782-2233.
The Watertown Police Department was assisted by the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, New York State Police, Watertown City Fire Department, Town of Watertown Fire Department, Town of Watertown Ambulance Service, Guilfoyle Emergency Medical Service and Evans Mills Ambulance Service.
