Three regions approve wage hikes starting early January

THREE regional wage boards approved hikes in minimum pay to take effect early 2026, the National Wages and Productivity Commission (NWPC) said.

In the Caraga region, the daily minimum wage for non-agricultural workers will increase to P455 starting Jan. 3 and will further rise to P475 on May 1, up from the current rate of P435, according to the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board (RTWPB) XIII. The approval was announced in a NWPC social media post on Thursday.

For domestic workers, monthly minimum wages will also come in for adjustment. In chartered cities and first-class municipalities, pay will increase by P500 to P6,500, with other municipalities to see commensurate increases.

Workers in the Zamboanga Peninsula (Region IX) are set to receive a P25 increase in daily minimum wage under Wage Order No. RIX-24, according to the NWPC.

Non-agricultural establishments with 10 or more employees, including retail and service businesses, will see wages rise from P414 to P439 in January, with a second tranche bringing the rate to P464 in June 2026.

Agricultural establishments and businesses employing nine or fewer workers will have their daily minimum wages increased from P401 to P426 in January, and to P451 in June.

Meanwhile, employees in Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, and Palawan or Mimaropa (Region IV-B), including domestic workers, will benefit from new wage adjustments effective Jan. 1.

For establishments with 10 or more workers, daily wages will rise from P430 to P455, while establishments with less than 10 employees will see wages increase from P404 to P455.

With these minimum wage updates, Northern Mindanao (Region X) remains the sole region yet to implement wage adjustments for this year’s cycle. — Erika Mae P. Sinaking

(Photo by Paul Natkin/Getty Images) Getty Images Singer Lou Gramm has a vivid memory of recording the ballad “Waiting for a Girl Like You” at New York City’s Electric Lady Studio for his band Foreigner more than 40 years ago. Gramm was adding his vocals for the track in the control room on the other side of the glass when he noticed a beautiful woman walking through the door. “She sits on the sofa in front of the board,” he says. “She looked at me while I was singing. And every now and then, she had a little smile on her face. I’m not sure what that was, but it was driving me crazy. “And at the end of the song, when I’m singing the ad-libs and stuff like that, she gets up,” he continues. “She gives me a little smile and walks out of the room. And when the song ended, I would look up every now and then to see where Mick [Jones] and Mutt [Lange] were, and they were pushing buttons and turning knobs. They were not aware that she was even in the room. So when the song ended, I said, ‘Guys, who was that woman who walked in? She was beautiful.’ And they looked at each other, and they went, ‘What are you talking about? We didn’t see anything.’ But you know what? I think they put her up to it. Doesn’t that sound more like them?” “Waiting for a Girl Like You” became a massive hit in 1981 for Foreigner off their album 4, which peaked at number one on the Billboard chart for 10 weeks and…

One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight

Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew returns to the Jazz Albums and Traditional Jazz Albums charts, showing continued demand for his timeless music. Frank Sinatra performs on his TV special Frank Sinatra: A Man and his Music Bettmann Archive These days on the Billboard charts, Frank Sinatra’s music can always be found on the jazz-specific rankings. While the art he created when he was still working was pop at the time, and later classified as traditional pop, there is no such list for the latter format in America, and so his throwback projects and cuts appear on jazz lists instead. It’s on those charts where Sinatra rebounds this week, and one of his popular projects returns not to one, but two tallies at the same time, helping him increase the total amount of real estate he owns at the moment. Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew Returns Sinatra’s The World We Knew is a top performer again, if only on the jazz lists. That set rebounds to No. 15 on the Traditional Jazz Albums chart and comes in at No. 20 on the all-encompassing Jazz Albums ranking after not appearing on either roster just last frame. The World We Knew’s All-Time Highs The World We Knew returns close to its all-time peak on both of those rosters.

The set climbed all the way to No. 15 on the Jazz Albums tally and has now spent just under two months on the rosters. Frank Sinatra’s Album With Classic Hits Sinatra released The World We Knew in the summer of 1967. The title track, which on the album is actually known as “The World We Knew (Over and…
