MONTERO GRAINS and LIVESTOCK, INCORPORATED

THE COMPANY MGL was incorporated as a family corporation in 1980 with a paid-up capital of P400,000 in csh. It was organized by Mr. Carlos Montero and his wife's family. The Company was located in Pangasinan.
To increase its capital structure, members of management accepted additional investments in the form of fixed assets in exchange for shares of common stock and established a policy of giving priority in employment with the company to anybody who would invest a minimum of P20,000 in common stock.
Mr. Montero explained, "Our parents never borrowed nor mortgage any of their properties to lending institutions. They acquired them through hard work and frugality and the attachment for these family assets is very significant in their lives. I have made a list of probable projects to make our company more viable, considering the type of business we are in , the place and the selection and design of our projects in the vicinity."

LIST OF PROPOSED PROJECTS
1. Grain drier, furnace and accessories
2. Electrification of rice mill building and warehouse (installation of electric motors, wiring, panel boards, control switches, etc.)

3. Palay storage boxes (10 units)
4. Repairs of warehouse and Rice Mill Building
5. Construction Concrete of Concrete Solar Driers

The practice of keeping in the payroll a few extra hands to help " poor relatives" also led to financial difficulties. The majority of the company's present employees were daily-paid laborers.

...Economy and Society Volume 37 Number 2 May 2008: 193Á223 Regional trade agreements and the pursuit of state interests: institutional perspectives from NAFTA and Mercosur Francesco Duina and Jason Buxbaum Abstract Are regional trade agreements (RTAs) carefully crafted projects that systematically advance their member states’ interests or do they instead generate outcomes that frustrate those interests? Works on the most prominent RTA Á the European Union Á have traditionally been split over this question. New research on international organizations parallels that literature. Combining rational choice and historical institutionalism, this article makes a middle-ground case: the limited rationality of national representatives and the complexity of RTAs ensure both the advancement and frustration of national interests. The focus is on shifting national preferences, the unpredictable implications of decisions over time and the pursuit of short-term gains to the benefit of some constituents but not others. Evidence from NAFTA and Mercosur supports these claims while highlighting, in line with recent scholarship, the need to include politics in institutionalist accounts of integration. The conclusion reflects on the findings and explores whether alternative, more flexible designs for RTAs might satisfy more fully the interests of the member states.
