520 _aThis article discusses concerns arising from how the Supreme Court ruled in a case that sought to stop the field trials of a genetically modified crop. The author critiques how the Supreme Court forayed into the realm of policy-making and the regulation of genetically modified organisms (GMO'S) using its own brand of the precautionary principle in a regulatory context that lacked specific legislation on GMO's. It then tackles pronouncements of the Supreme Court that appear to question the safeness of GMOs in general when only the field trials of a particular crop were assailed. Areas of improvement in the Philippines' regulation of GMOs are then identified, with the author offering some general recommendations.
