KALIBO, Aklan (PIA) The province of Aklan has now its 16th Balay Silangan, with the recent inauguration and launching of Kalibo’s “Baeay Pagbag-o it Kalibo”/Balay Silangan, A Reformation Center in Barangay Nalook, Kalibo, Aklan.

With its inauguration, only one town in Aklan remains to have no Balay Silangan yet.

The inauguration/launching was led by Mayor Juris Sucro together with officials from the Dangerous Drugs Board through Undersecretary Earl Saavedra, Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) – Aklan Provincial Officer Jose Ramir Batiguas, Aklan PNP officials led by Aklan Police Provincial Office (APPO) Provincial Director Police Col. Crisaleo Tolentino, and other local officials.

Kalibo’s Balay Silangan will be the 63rd reformatory center in Western Visayas, according to PDEA – Aklan Provincial Officer Jose Ramir Batiguas.

Batiguas provided the Project Overview of the Balay Silangan during the program.

He added the Balay Silangan will be a big help in reforming drug offenders to become law-abiding citizens through community involvement.

On the other hand, DDB Undersecretary Earl Saavedra praised LGU-Kalibo’s present leadership for the establishment of the “Baeay It Pagbago”/Balay Silangan, stressing that drug surrenderers not only need programs to reform but infrastructure at the same time where they could be supported in their journey towards recovery from using drugs.

“You have my commitment that we will support you,” Saavedra told Kalibo officials.

The DDB provided P5 million fund in the construction of the facility in Kalibo, while the LGU also earmarked P5 million to complete this structure.

Meanwhile, during the latest meeting of the Provincial Advisory Group for Police Transformation and Development

(PAG-PTD) here, officials from PDEA-Aklan who were invited to the meeting revealed that the municipality of Batan in Aklan is preparing for the inspection of its Balay Silangan facility already.

Batan is the lone municipality in the province with no Balay Silangan yet, but once its structure is inspected and inaugurated, all of Aklan’s 17 towns will have reformation centers for drug surrenderers.

The Balay Silangan is part of the PDEA’s Harm Reduction efforts, and is a national reformation program that offers temporary refuge to drug offenders and surrenderers with the purpose of making them self-sufficient and law-abiding members of the society. (JBG/VGV/PIA6 Aklan)

KALIBO, Aklan (PIA) The province of Aklan, through the Office off the Provincial Veterinarian (OPVET), will be marking Rabies Awareness Month this March by conducting dog castration and anti-rabies vaccination on dogs and cats.

OPVET-Aklan Veterinary Consultant Dr. Cathlyn Castro said the free castration will be conducted at the Walk-In Clinic at the Capitol Grounds on March 24, 2023.

She added that only the first pre-registered 20 dogs will be accommodated during the said schedule which had undergone pre-assessment to check if these animals have underlying health conditions.

“Dogs to be castrated should have been vaccinated against rabies two weeks prior to the operation,” Castro revealed during PIA-Aklan’s weekly radio program here.

The dogs to be castrated must also be at least three to five months old.

Vaccination of dogs and cats against rabies will also be conducted in the same venue, according to Castro.

She said that last year, four cases of dogs with rabies were listed by OPVET-Aklan.

On the part of human casualties in Aklan due to the virus, four died last year.

With the observance of Rabies Awareness Month, she also called on Aklanons to be responsible pet owners whether the dogs have breed or are Asong Pinoy or Aspins.

“When we are dog owners, we must be ready to shell out expenses for their deworming, food, vitamins, and vaccines,” she stressed.

Meanwhile, Castro said that personnel of OPVET-Aklan are now mostly deployed at Aklan borders in Altavas, Nabas, Buruanga and at the Caticlan Jetty Port to check incoming vehicles and luggage which might contain pork products or pork-based products

coming from other parts of the country.

This is in connection with the latest Executive Order No. 21 issued by Governor Jose Enrique Miraflores, which bans the entry of live swine, its products and by-products in the province to prevent African Swine Fever from entering Aklan and affecting the province’s hog industry.

Presently in Western Visayas, only Aklan, Antique and Negros Occidental are still ASF-free. (JBG/VGV/PIA6 Aklan)

Social Security System (SSS) President and CEO Rolando Ledesma Macasaet handed over proceeds of benefit claims to Norlynda Cabiles, mother and SSS beneficiary of slain Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW), Jullebee Ranara, last March 22, 2023.

In a simple ceremony held at the SSS Main Office, Quezon City, Cabiles received more than P100,000 comprising of SSS Death and Funeral benefits, and financial assistance from SSS officials and employees.

“Considering the sacrifices being made by our OFWs by working in a foreign country and being away from their families for a long period of time, it is very important that they have an active SSS membership which will help them and their families in times of contingencies,” Macasaet said.

On behalf of the SSS, Macasaet also expressed his sincerest condolences to the family of Ranara and reiterated his continuous support and efforts towards the social security protection of OFWs. He also offered a job opportunity to Ranara’s sibling within the SSS.

Cabiles, on the other hand, thanked the SSS for the benefits she received, attributed to the hard work of her daughter, and additional financial support.

The SSS is a state-run social insurance institution that extends social security protection to Filipino workers in the

private and informal sectors. Under the Social Security Law, it provides seven benefit programs namely, Sickness, Maternity, Unemployment, Retirement, Disability, Death, and Funeral, as well as various loan privileges. (SSS)

The Social Security System (SSS) and Bureau of Immigration (BI) signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on March 9, 2023 at the BI main office in Intramuros, Manila that will provide social security coverage to job order and contract of service workers in the government.

Under the MOA, BI’s job order and contract of service workers will get SSS coverage under the KaSSSama sa Coverage Program. Under the program, these BI workers will be classified as self-employed members of SSS.

The agreement also states that BI will act as a Coverage and Collection Partner of SSS. As such, SSS authorized BI to collect and remit the monthly contributions of these workers through a salary-deduction scheme.

“The SSS aims to secure the future of all job order and contract of service workers in government agencies nationwide. Although these employees work in government offices, they are considered private self-employed members and are not covered by the Government Service Insurance System,” Macasaet said.

He explained that as self-employed SSS members, they will be entitled to receive social security benefits such as sickness, maternity, disability, retirement, funeral and death benefits. They will also get additional coverage from the Employees' Compensation Program (ECP) for work-related contingencies. Moreover, they may apply for various member loans offered by SSS such as salary and calamity loans.

Commissioner Tansingco thanked SSS for bringing social security benefits to their job order and contract of service workers which they can rely on during times of contingencies.

Meanwhile, Macasaet visited the KaSSSama sa Coverage Program servicing counter set up for the occasion in the BI

head office in Intramuros, Manila. SSS personnel from SSS Manila Branch manned the online and onsite servicing counter to assist BI workers in creating online account with SSS through the My.SSS facility, registration with SSS as selfemployed members, generating Payment Reference Number
