What is Ichong v. Hernandez: RA 1180 Review about?

1. This case involved a challenge to the constitutionality of RA 1180, which regulated the retail business and limited the participation of aliens. 2. The petitioner argued RA 1180 violated international law obligations of the Philippines under the UN Charter, UN Declaration of Human Rights, and a treaty with China. 3. The Supreme Court ruled that RA 1180 was a valid exercise of police power to protect national economic interests, and that international agreements did not limit this police power.
