Colorful Rice from Thailand
2008-05-13 04:49:00 I had only recently found out that in the 1980s, the Thailand government purportedly sent a few of their agricultural people to the Philippines to leverage on our advancement in rice production. The Thais then studied under the able tutelage of the International Rice Research Institute based in the country. Decades later, the “teacher” who in the past boasted of being a predominantly agricultural nation had lost its mojo in this very aspect while the “students” had taken what science they learned to advanced heights. To reinforce our country’s plummet to rice-farming Loserville, the Philippines is now one of the world’s top importer of rice. What happened to us and our rice themed glory days? Read more here >>

An All-Purpose Stir Fry
2008-05-11 10:00:00 This is a basic, tried-and-true stir fry sauce that works for any and all of your stir fry needs.My family's not thrilled about broccoli and other vegetables that you typically get in stir fry but the curry version of this sauce soaks in and coats those vitamins so well that even the kids really like this recipe.I'm only posting the recipe for the sauce because you can pick your own meat and vegetables to go with this, there really are no rules about the stuff you can throw in here--perfect for those "What am I going to fix?" nights. Try it with either curry or ginger, both are tasty.3 T soy1/3 t sugar3 T broth2 t curry OR ¼ c minced ginger root2 green onionsMix up the sauce and set aside. Chop your chosen ingredients into small pieces--smaller is better because they will cook quicker and maintain that crispy-tender texture that is important with stir fries. Marinade the pieces of meat in a bit of soy sauce while you're waiting to add them to the pot.Heat up your wok with a cou...

Rice prices are going up, way up high
2008-05-08 08:25:00 As I have already spread out in the first part of this post, there are many factors why the rice prices are going up, way up high. Personally, I believe that there is a rice shortage, unlike the statements of our government officials disputing the rice shortage as a myth. The Philippines has been scrambling to boost stocks and supply cheap rice to the poor as rice prices soared to near-record levels in recent months amid increased demand, crop failures, a shift to biofuels production or other land uses, and poor investment in the farm sector. The Philippines imports about 10 percent of its domestic rice requirement. The problem with our culture system… Read more on this topic in How to Blog an Exploding Man?

A solution to the rice crisis
2008-05-05 03:44:00 As the Inquirer cries foul over the so-called "Mekong Mafia" proposal by Thailand, let me add my two cents.While shooting in the Thai capital Bangkok, I noticed that there are no tambays (bums) in the city. Not like here in Manila where you see half-naked, pot-bellied guys on almost every street corner who do nothing but drink all day.Now with this rice crisis gripping most of Asia, I think we need not train our ire on Thailand. It's not their fault if they had the foresight to focus on self-sufficiency. Now, we should focus on our own problems. And tough times call for tough solutions. I think we should round up all those tambays and turn them into state rice farmers. We should have something similar to the infamous Killing Fields of the Khmer Rouge.Yes, it would violate all known human rights laws. But I think it's just fair. See, those tambays contribute nothing to the economy. It may be argued that our culture of corruption has robbed millions of Filipinos the opportunity for ...

South East Asia: Center of the Rice Crisis
2008-05-03 03:09:00 Rice is the most staple food in this country, where in every corner of this archipelago, people are looking for rice. We never thought that there would be a rice crisis - or shortage of rice production, - but here we are now, at the center of the rice crisis. The government spends about $0.46 in every $100 of agriculture output, a level much lower than those of developing countries, which spends $0.53 in every $100, and much much lower in highly industrialized countries at $2.00 in every $100. Now, where is the Philippines in this picture? Let’s not pin-point the Philippines as the main culprit. But yes! We do have contributed in this crisis - and we are in the forefront of the crisis. But there are many other reasons why we do have this crisis. Read more on this topic in How to Blog an Exploding Man?
Rice and cooking oil lead price rise - Singapore
2008-05-03 02:12:00 Rice and cooking oil lead price rise - Singapore New Case survey of prices across retailers points out cheaper options to buyers By Jessica Lim LOADING up the shopping cart is getting to be an increasingly expensive exercise, going by price checks conducted by the Consumers Association of Singapore (Case) over a two-month period. Yes, the price of rice is going up. But so too are the prices of cooking oil and other items such as instant noodles. Consumers who buy premium brands face the steepest increase, compared to those who pick products packaged by the supermarket chains. The price of a 10kg bag of Royal Umbrella fragrant rice jumped 44 per cent - from $18.65 in March to $26.80 last month. The house brand version of rice jumped too, but by less. The FairPrice brand of fragrant rice, for example, increased from $5.75 to $6.50 per 5kg bag, an increase of 13 per cent. Cooking oil has also become more expensive. The Knife brand of cooking oil jumped by 56 per cent - from $13.20 ...

Golf courses, developers nibble at Asia's rice paddies
2008-05-01 02:41:00 he tourists who tee off at this golf course on Bali's west coast are probably unaware that the ground beneath their feet is connected to a global panic over rice supplies. Once this golf course was a patchwork of rice fields. Now just a few remain, and villagers work as caddies or waiters at Le Meridien Nirwana resort and its Greg Norman-designed greens. From Bali to Vietnam, rice paddies are being replaced by golf courses, hotels, villas and industrial parks as Asian economies surge ahead, the standard of living rises and locals opt for higher-paying, less labor-intensive work away from farming. This shift has cut into rice production, a staple food throughout much of the region."The call from Malaysia to Indonesia to China is 'return to the land and be a farmer again'," said Song Seng Wun, regional economist at CIMB-GK Research in Singapore. "The lesson is, food security is important, but people have forgotten that in their rush to industrialise. Longer ...

He cannot seem to find that winning recipe. As the unfortunate host of bearishly ravenous dinner guests, he just had to avoid a financial faux pas… not to mention scathing reviews from stern critics… with a hastily-prepared meal just before last month’s FOMC. But as master economic chef, he must be ashamed, having completely spoiled his secret sauce and Fed family formula for inflation targeting and price stability in the process.Now it seems painfully evident that no matter what ingredient he substitutes from the CPI basket of goods, he just cannot keep the inflationary pot from boiling over. And with the latest consumer confidence readings, we can definitely see that expectatio...
