Philippines to get own Playboy, but no nudes

 

Thu Mar 27, 12:38 AM ET

 

MANILA (AFP) - The Philippines will get its own edition of Playboy magazine -- only without the nudity that made the US version famous, the editor-in-chief of the local edition said Thursday.

 

The Philippine edition will be launched on April 2 as a "mature lifestyle magazine", said veteran journalist Beting Laygo Dolor.

 

While the magazine will offer pictorials of beautiful women, it will not include nudity. "It will be tamer than the US edition but not as tame as the Indonesian edition," Lagyo Dolor said in a television interview.

 

He said it would be aimed at a more mature, affluent readership than "lad magazines" such as FHM and Maxim which already have Philippine editions.

 

It will be the 25th international edition of the US-based magazine which was launched more than 50 years ago.

 

The local edition will have serious articles and fiction by some of the country's best-known writers but will also include such staples as a "playmate of the month", Lagyo Dolor said

 

Movies and publications showing nudity have run into strong opposition in the conservative, largely Roman Catholic Philippines with watchdog groups sometimes filing criminal charges against those who distribute such materials.

Philippines Dell demotes dozens

By Juan Dela Cruz

This story’s title seems to be another piece of a bigger Dell Philippines direction-shift puzzle. Events like this raise fears among workers of a looming management plan of Dell to outsource again. The greater majority of the company has recently been abuzz with speculations fueled by events such as this.

Recently, Dell Quezon city Site Director Susheel Bhasin removed all of his direct subordinates, the Project Directors, and demoted them to Account Managers positions. Director Susheel himself revealed that these jobs were shaved because no other Dell sites have Project Directors except in the Philippines, and also due to “business needs”. This move has prompted at least one Project Director to resign upon learning of his sudden demotion.

The shake up doesn’t end there. The movements from above will likely affect those down below. It now seems certain that everybody in the operations management department down to the team managers will all be demoted. The original account managers are now performing duties of their subordinates the team managers, while the ranks of the team managers are now being reassessed to see any redundancy in duties. Some of the team managers have already been removed and replaced with L2 support tech as mentioned in a previous article.

In a recent meeting with employees, Director Susheel has vehemently denied the spreading rumors of Dell being outsourced to BPO’s like Teletech and Accenture. But it seems hard to convince people, when the facts on the ground do not back up management rhetoric.

Could this be a sign of financially trouble? Maybe. To some people, that could be worse!

Dell Global Center Philippines Outsourced

By Juan Dela Cruz

It looks like the end is near for the Dell Global contact centers operating at two locations in the Philippines. It seems apparent that Dell will be outsourcing their contact centers again to established outsourcers. This development has gotten some of its call center employees in a state of panic and confusion for the past two weeks.

My source from inside Dell Philippines told me that phase one of these developments has already been completed when Teletech’s Vice President paid a visit to Dell’s biggest site in the city of Pasay to ink the deal. The second round is also in the works with Dell’s second biggest site located in Quezon City being handed over to Accenture very soon. Apparently, a third site which Dell had planned to put up in the southern city of Cebu has already been shelved since another outsourcing contract was awarded to Wipro BPO which recently established in that city.

Top level management has tried to keep a tight lid on the matter so as not to fuel speculations among the ranks but one of their senior managers unfortunately couldn’t keep his mouth zipped and accidentally slipped his tongue in a one of his meetings with the staff.

These developments have gotten a lot of Dell employees worried about their own future in the company. Most fear their salary and benefits will get slashed which is often the case in the Philippines. Some managers and supervisors fear for the jobs because some positions in Dell are reportedly redundant. I speculate this might also happen in Dell’s site in India. If it has worked in Philippines, the same model will be implemented in India.
