Residents anxious over ‘release’ of criminal suspects By CRIS DIAZ Executive Editor

CAGAYAN de Oro City–– Local law enforcement agencies have expressed deep concern over the release of several crimes suspects here while urging the residents to be on guard. Pol. Sr. Supt. Faro Olaguera, chief of the city

police force, on Tuesday said that the court ordered the release of the crime suspects since the prosecution failed to “reconstitute” their cases. “All evidences and records of all criminal cases were burned after a fire gobbled up the city’s Hall of Justice sometime in January this year,” Olaguera said.

Duterte now open to presidency

avao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte has finally yielded to the appeal of friends and supporters to keep an open mind about the presidency and stop issuing statements that he is not interested in running for the 2016 presidential elections. In his weekly program “Gikan sa Masa, Para sa Masa” aired Sunday on ABSCBN Davao, Duterte said he understood the sentiments of his friends and supporters who have been urging him to run for President in the face of the serious problems confronting the country. “I will consider the suggestion of my friends and supporters,” Duterte said adding that the presidency is a destiny which only God could bestow on a person. Friends and supporters of the tough-talking Davao City Mayor renewed their appeal to Duterte to stop declaring that he will not run in the face of his steady climb in the national rankings for presidential wannabees in 2016. The survey of Pulse Asia showed Duterte at third

place (behind Senator Grace Poe and Vice President Jejomar Binay) with 15%, an increase of 3-percentage point from the March survey of the same polling group. Even in the controversial SWS survey, which used the “pick three” system in ranking presidential aspirants for 2016, Duterte jumped from 15% to 20%. Duterte’s friends and supporters believe that the ratings of the Davao City Mayor could have been higher had he not categorically stated that he was not interested in the presidency. “The reluctance of people to openly express support for Mayor Duterte is due to the fact that he has repeatedly declared he is not running. In fact, the question we always hear

is: “Is he really running?,” said former transportation secretary Pantaleon Alvarez, one of Duterte’s most ardent supporters. Even political leaders are left hanging in the balance and are in a quandary on how to handle the Duterte factor since he is very strong among the grassroots, especially in Mindanao, the Visayas and in Metro Manila and Southern Tagalog region. Contrar y to sur veys showing that Duterte only holds 37% of Mindanao, political leaders in the third biggest island of the country believe that the Davao City Mayor will garner 75% to 80% of the Southern Islands’ votes estimated at about 13 million. “Any Mindanao political leader who will campaign against Duterte in his area will face a revolt and upheaval from his own people because they see Duterte as their hope of getting the attention of the national government for the first time,’ said outspoken Duterte supporter Gov. Jose

Pelaez thumbs down biomass power plant project in Misor By MARK FRANCISCO Staff member

AGAYAN de Oro City–– Misamis Oriental Vice Governor Jose Mari Pelaez has expressed his opposition this early to the possible construction of a biomass power plant in his province.

Even before there was no proposal received by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP) yet on the matter, Pelaez said he based his opinion on the press statement of Mackay Green Energ y announcing its intention to build three biomass power plants in the region, one of which is to be located in Misamis Oriental. “It is ironic that a com-

pany claiming to be an advocate for the environment will be building a power plant which incinerates grasses in its power plant. When you burn, you contribute to the proliferation of carbon in the air,

which is detrimental to the environment,” Pelaez said in an interview with this writer. With the proposed plant to be erected in Medina town at a nearby popular beach, Pelaez also feared

Central Office in Manila through the initiative of second district Rep. Juliette T. Uy and the strong support of her husband, Villanueva town Mayor Julio T. Uy. Atty. Reena Yumina M. Yason, acting manager of the Assets and Supply Management Department, PCSO Legislative Liaison Officer to the 16th Congress, has earlier wrote a letter to Rep. Uy saying that PCSO General Manager Atty. Jose Ferdinand M. Rojas II approved her request for an ambulance for each of the municipality. The beneficiaries of the new ambulances—worth P3.5 million—were the towns of Naawan, Libertad, Claveria, and Villanueva, all of Misamis Oriental. Rojas handed the symbolic keys to the representatives of each local government unit during the turnover ceremony held during the opening of the PCSO-Misamis Occidental branch in Ozamiz City on June 22. The symbolic keys were given to Mayor Leonardo “Junie” Uy of Libertad town, Mayor Jaime Roa of Naawan town, Mayor Redentor Salvaleon of Claveria town, and Villanueva town Vice Mayor Edwin Dagasuhan, who represented Mayor Julio T. Uy. The municipal health officers of each local government unit attended the turnover ceremony.

that it would decrease tourist arrivals in the resort. For its part, the company outlined a lengthy explanation detailing that its bana grass combustion would produce “zero waste.”

In an e arlier st atement, Mackay Green Energy stated that it will be growing its own supply of bana grass as fuel for the biomass power plant. The Pampanga-based firm further stated that bana grass is ideal to cultivate in the Philippines, where the climate is warm and humid. But Pelaez feared that the bana grass could not sustain the day-to-day operations of the plant once it would run. This despite the fact that Mackay Green Energy maintains 130 hectares of bana grass planted in Nueva Ecija and plans to use 6,000 more in Negros Oriental and another 1,000 hectares dedicated to the specie in Leyte. But the firm is a neophyte in the power industry – their combined 32MW planned investment in Northern Mindanao would be their first power plants,

including the proposed 12MW one in Misamis Oriental. It was not the first time that the provincial board of Misamis Oriental quashed an application for biomass power plant construction. In 2013, Misamis Oriental Biomass Energy Corporation also expressed its intent before the provincial board members to install a biomass power plant in the province. But Pelaez and the provincial board members noted that the officials of the firm and the local utility Misamis Oriental Electric Service Cooperative II were the same and commented that a conflict of interest existed between the energy provider and distributor. Ironically, Misamis Oriental Biomass Energy Corporation has been bought by Mackay Green Energy and is reviving the P45billion combined projects.

Vetting the wannabes While it may be true that as of this writing only Vice President Jejomar Binay has been forthright about his intention of succeeding President Aquino in next year’s presidential race, there are others who may not have announced their candidacies yet but more or less sure of running for the post hence the need to vet them also. Binay had been vetted already as somebody who should not be entrusted the presidency given the numerous graft charges levelled against him while mayor of Makati City. Inexplicably, however, his ratings are still high despite these charges and despite his refusal to answer them point by point in whatever forum. The recent Pulse Asia survey results proved this. Results like this will surely just embolden Binay to seek the presidency knowing he still enjoys the trust and confidence of the people though his ratings had obviously gone down since he made known his decision to be the country’s next president. Surpassing Binay’s rating as the preferred presidential aspirant among all surveys recently conducted by repu-

table pollsters is neophyte Sen. Grace Poe. Even if the lady senator still has to make known her plans for 2016, chances are she will seek the presidency given her soaring popularity ratings even if she has not announced she is gunning for the presidency. Realistically, Poe will only need not much money if she decides to run in the first and a half months of the campaign. And if she is able to sustain or even increase her popularity rating among aspirants of the same post, financial supporters will then be drawn to her side just like what happened to Aquino in 2010. By the way, it is said that Aquino will not have any choice but endorse or

anoint Roxas as his candidate to replace him because reportedly it was Roxas who bankrolled their campaign in 2010 during the first one and a half months of the campaign when donors were still determining who they should cast their lot on. All that Poe should do is maintain the high rating she is now getting from the electorate until the first one and a half months of the campaign. If by good luck she is able to do this, then funding will become the least of her worries until Election Day next year. How would she do this is the challenge she should hurdle if she will finally be persuaded to run for president. Interior and Local Governments Secretary Manuel “Mar” Roxas II, on the other hand, continues to lag behind the leading presidential timbers despite his exposure, financial muscle and his experience in government. Sadly for him, he remains unable to capture the imagination of the people despite the above pluses to his political intentions. This is expected though. Among the bruited presidential aspirants, it is only Roxas who

does not have a clear grasp of the dynamics of poverty, a problem as president he is expected to address with a sense of urgency. How can a president who does not know what poverty is effectively lock horns with this problem? Roxas, let us remember, is the only presidential wannabe who was born with a golden plate, spoon and fork. But this is the albatross that is bringing Roxas down in the pit of the presidential race. Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte, meanwhile, is faring well in the surveys because of what he has done in his turf, rid it with criminality and drugs. He is likewise advocating for a shift to the federal form of government. But how he will achieve this if elected president, he has so far not explained. Duterte’s biggest flaw is that among the myriad of problems the country is facing, he is only qualified to address two concerns, that of criminality and drugs. This may sit well in a local government setting, how this can make him tick in the national level is something else. See bacon, page A11

vited by the University of Immaculate Conception in Davao to deliver a lecture too. But, in this occasion, the topic was different from that I delivered in CJC, Digos. I delivered a lecture about writing a research paper for international conference and international academic journal publication. The university was close to the hotel I was staying. It took about 15 minutes to go to that university. The next day, on November 27, I was invited by The Holy Cross University for the same purpose. I was requested to deliver a lecture with the topic about research journal article publication. I delivered the lecture also in front of the students and some of their lecturers. The topic of journal article publication is now becoming the prevailing topic not only in the Philippines but also in my country, Indonesia. All the lecturers are demanded to write papers for publication. During my lectures there, I always said to the students and lecturers. They are luckier than Indonesian

students. In fact, they can always opportunity to speak in English not only in the classroom but also outside. It is different from Indonesia. The students very seldom get the opportunity to speak English. They can have a chance to speak English when they get an English lesson in the classroom. Actually, I was also invited by another university in Davao but I couldn’t attend due to schedule constraints. In the afternoon after delivering the lecture in University of Immaculate Conception, I was invited to deliver the same topic. But, by coincidence, in that afternoon, I had to deliver my speech at the conference,

I was impressed because along the street, all cars and drivers were really obedient to traffic regulation. For example, when I was picked by the CJC Dean from the hotel to Digos, it took more time compared to the journey in my country for the same route or distance. When I asked the driver why he drove the car slowly (on average about 40 km per hour), he replied: “We are not allowed to drive fast in Davao and even outside that city. It is for safety!” Oh, Gosh. It was really a nice journey for I felt safe and enjoyed the journey very much. The people are obedient. A good city to stay! Now, I am just wondering how about, if Davao city can be reached by a direct flight from Surabaya. Or, at least, only one transit, SurabayaSingapore- Davao, every day. See djuwari, page A11

Who knows what kind of impact you will have on policies, fellow co-workers, or your position.

Marlon Stockinger competes in Austria prior to Slipstream 2.0 Filipino Jr. F1 driver to represent PH in 2015 Status Grand Prix The Formula 1 aspirations of Filipino-Swiss Jr. F1 racing driver Marlon Stockinger shifts to a higher gear today with the staging of the 2015 Status Grand Prix (GP2) season in Austria. Twenty-six drivers representing 13 teams that will race over 10 rounds are participating in the said event. Entering the Austria event, GP 2 has already completed three rounds,

which started last April in Bahrain. Stockinger, 24, is joined by New Zealand’s 23-year-old driver Richie Stanaway for Status Grand Prix this year. According to Stockinger’s mother Egin, his son has been adjusting well in this GP2 series, noting that he is still in his rookie year as a GP2 participant. “It’s very challenging because the car he now uses is heavier,

and this series is different from where he used to race. But overall as a rookie driver in a series of GP2, he is doing very well,” she said. “I talked to him four days ago. He is confident and hopeful that he will earn points in this series. Of course, it will be tough but he is doing everything he can.”

return to the country June 25, in time for Slipstream 2.0 happening two days later on the 27th and presented by his main corporate sponsor, Globe Telecom. Slipstream 2.0 is a oneday event for the public, particularly motoring aficionados, where Stockinger is set to drive his Lotus World Series racecar around

the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig. The event will be a sequel to last year’s exhibition of fast cars and fancy vehicles which attracted thousands of enthusiasts and their families who saw history in the making by witnessing a World Series car burn rubber on the streets of Manila.

Pelaez calls for exclusion of Agus 1 and 2 hydroelectric complexes under the jurisdiction of Bangsamoro gov’t Cagayan de Oro City -- In the light of the impending privatization of the AgusPulangui Hydroelectric Power Complexes, Vice Governor Joey G. Pelaez wrote to the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Local Government Senator Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., expressing his concern over the effect of such move to the cost of electricity in Mindanao. Moreover, the Vice Governor also appeals to the Senator, whose committee tackles the Bangsamoro Basic Law, to look into Section 3 (15) Article V of the proposed organic law which states that “The Bangsamoro Government shall have authority to regulate power generation, transmission, and distribution operating exclusively in the Bangsamoro and not connected to the national transmission grid… When power generation, transmission, and distribution facilities are connected to the national transmission grid, the Central Government and the Bangsamoro Government shall cooperate

and coordinate through the intergovernmental relation mechanism.” Vice Governor Pelaez stressed that there should be a clear delineation as to which between the Central Government and the Bangsamoro Government should manage Lake Lanao, which plays a vital role in Mindanao’s power supply.

Praised be...for a Pope who demands climate justice By ANNA ABAD

“Safeguard creation because, if we destroy it, it will destroy us. Never forget this,” said Pope Francis, a staunch advocate for the environment. A revolutionary Pontiff, His Holiness has shown strong commitment on the issue of climate change, so much so, that he released an encyclical that calls for climate action as a moral imperative. The Pope tackled Climate Justice on his visit to the Philippines in January this year, and stressed on how countries like

ours will be “seriously affected by climate change,” especially the economically poor and marginalized – those experiencing the most harms from climate change due to irresponsible exploitation of nature. Climate change is a borderless issue. As such, it is fitting that the encyclical addresses everyone as “stewards of creation.” The Pope hopes “to inspire people to take greater responsibility for the common home that God has entrusted to us.” However, while world leaders have known about climate change

as early as 1960s, efforts to address it have been stymied by deniers and by the fossil fuel industry who continue to obfuscate the issue. Science has progressed immensely and has churned out definitive studies and facts about the harms that threaten humanity’s very existence. In April, the final declaration made by religious leaders, political leaders, business leaders, scientists and development practitioners, said “Human-induced climate change is a scientific reality, and its decisive mitigation is a moral

More checkpoints set up in Mindanao vs. illegal logging THE Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has established three additional forest monitoring checkpoints in Northern Mindanao, Davao and Caraga as it strengthened its campaign to bring down illegal logging and timber poaching incidence to zero level by the end of June 2015. In Misamis Occidental, the Provincial AntiIllegal Logging Task Force (PAILTF) has established six additional checkpoints. This has brought to 10, the total number of such checkpoints, which are strategically located at the foot of the Mt. Malindang Ranges and Natural Park (MMRNP), where the illegal logging takes place, Edgardo G. Aguinaldo, Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Officer (PENRO), said. Known to be the exit points used by the illegal loggers in their trade, the location of these new checkpoints are as follows: Sapang Dalaga, Kanao-kanao, Bonifacio, Tonggo, Namut, Tudela, Gala, Ozamiz City, Carmen, Jimenez and Don Victoriano. The existing checkpoints are Bongbong, Ozamiz City, Lapasan, Clarin, Taboo, Jimenez and Calaran, Calamba, Aguinaldo, who is the Chairperson of the PAILTF, said. Meanwhile, the PAILTF has reported the dismantling of six wood processing plants (WPP), within the area of responsibility (AOR) of the Community Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) in Ozamiz for lack of legal documents to operate.

Instruction “It’s a tall order from DENR Secretary Ramon JP Paje who gave instruction to all DENR regional directors earlier to bring illegal logging incidence down to the zero level at least by the end of June this year,” Regional Director Nonito Tamayo of DENR-13 said. “We expect people’s support and actively participate in this all-out campaign to slow down if not eradicate the illegal logging problem in our areas of concern,”

DENR, Region 11 Director Joselin Marcus Fragada said. The two DENR top regional executives led the inauguration of what they call “common checkpoint” that they have put up at Barangay Rizal in Monkayo, Compostela Valley. “We thought it practical to put up a common forest monitoring checkpoint near the border of Agusan del Sur and Mokayo, Compostela Valley to control the transport of illegal logs coming from Bislig, Surigao del Sur, Agusan del Sur and Davao,” Tamayo said. The other two other checkpoints are located in the boundary of Laac, Compostela Valley and Loreto, Agusan del Sur and Linging

Surigao del Sur and Boston in Davao Oriental. “We hope these strategic locations of forest checkpoints would discouraged the timber smugglers and poachers,” said Fragada.

also known as “Monitoring and Public Assistance Center” which will serve as information center where anyone can come and learn something about environment in particular about the climate change, the national greening program and many other topics on environment. He said the DENR in the two regions have laid out strategies in intensified antiillegal logging campaign to stop illegal logging at all cost and by all means in keeping with the commitment they made with Secretary Paje. He said the PNP and the Philippine Army commanders have likewise vowed to give their full commitment and support to the DENR to accomplish the DENR target goal. The forest monitoring and public, as agreed upon by the officials of Regions 11 and 13 shall be manned by at least 10 personnel coming from the two regions, supplied with uniforms and backed up by other parties from multi-sector groups . According to Fragada, the DENR is constrained to open a container van. Nevertheless, he said, the closed- container van drivers shall be requested d to produce documents and checked by the operatives at the checkpoints. “Maybe this strategy may deter log smugglers and have second thoughts in transporting undocumented forest products.” Tamayo said the DENR 13 operatives shall concentrate its operations on 11 hot spots of illegal logging activities in the region.

The Davao City mayor should be able to transcend beyond parochial concerns of his city if he desires to be embraced by the nation to be their next president. The other presidential wannabe who is not faring well in the surveys is former Sen. Panfilo Lacson. In regard to Lacson, I will admit here I have a personal bias for him. This bias is born out of my association with Lacson as a Cebu-based newsman while he was Metro Cebu police chief and as an observer while he was national police chief, senator of the land and as rehabilitation czar for typhoon Yolanda devastated areas in the Visayas. In those varying capacities, Lacson showed depth in his leadership and management skills, he has shown his deep understanding of the dynamics of poverty and how to address this overarching problem thus in the process address the problem of criminality and drugs, his non-compromising stance against all forms of abuse, graft and corruption in all levels of governance. Honestly, I believe Lacson is the guy for 2016. I just hope and pray more Filipinos will realize this so that we can have the best president this country never had so far.

You know, I was travelling from Surabaya, to Singapore, and to Manila. From Manila, I flew to Davao. (When flying from Manila to Davao, it was almost the same as to go back to Indonesia that is actually near North Sulawesi, the Island in Indonesia). Totally, it took me for about 20 hours, including waiting time in transit. It was almost the same as to fly to Europe.

and religious imperative for humanity.” A groundbreaking study found that just 90 Carbon Major Entities - including the worlds’ largest fossil fuel companies - are responsible for an estimated 65% of all anthropogenic CO2 between 1751 and 2013. Clearly, man-made climate change is creating terrible harms, including more intense extreme weather events. A recent study that looked at typhoon wind speeds in the past 60 years suggests that it is 10% stronger today than it was in the 1970s, which could mean a 33% increase in destructiveness. As oceans continue to warm, it fuels more energy thereby creating more intense typhoons. With stronger wind speeds, it could increase the level of typhoon categories from 3 to 4, under a moderate emissions scenario. With more extreme weather events like Typhoon Haiyan, Cyclone Pam, and Superstorm Sandy becoming the new normal, climate injustice is becoming the fate of vulnerable communities, whose basic human rights are violated by the impacts of climate change. While the 90 big carbon polluters have indiscriminately pumped fossil fuels, whose heat trapping emissions go into our shared atmosphere, threatening our common home, the disproportionate impacts are felt more acutely by the developing countries that have the least capacity to cope and adapt. The big polluters responsible for the lion’s share of carbon emissions globally, have profited at the expense of humanity and the climate, creating a deep social injustice. It is high time that they be held to account for the damage they have and will continue to cause. We need justice now. We need to leave the coal and oil in the ground and a clean renewable energy for all. For far too long, we assumed that world leaders were equipped with intellect, political will, vision, compassion, and moral compunction. For far too long, we allowed our leaders to gamble on our future with the fossil fuel industry, locking us into dirty energy projects, exacerbating the climate crisis which in turn widens poverty and fosters inequality, instead of transitioning us towards a low-carbon pathway of clean, green, sustainable development for all. Are we going to sit idly by and allow this injustice to happen? Will we let the big carbon polluters - hid-

It is a first step in galvanizing strong public outcry targeted at the world leaders and the fossil fuel industry for their irresponsible activities. Praised be to the Pope for serving as an inspiration. He is a beacon of hope to those with the courage and will to take climate action, and hold those responsible to account for their role in the climate crisis. The Philippines is taking its cue from the Pontiff ’s call for transformation to save the earth and its people: “What kind of world do we want to leave to those who come after us, to children who are now growing up? … What need does the earth have of us? Is is no longer enough, then, simply to state that we should be concerned for future generations. We need to see that what is at stake is our own dignity.” Filipinos, along with Greenpeace Southeast Asia are filing a human rights petition against the big carbon polluters to dignify humanity and mark a landmark step on the path for justice. Praised be for Climate Justice which is growing and gaining ground. Soon, many other people will follow suit in the fight to reclaim the climate and ensure the protection of our environment, our common home, for our future. ••• Editor’s Note: Anna Abad is a Climate Justice Campaigner at Greenpeace Southeast Asia--Philippines.

He said that the prosecution finds it hard to reconstitute the criminal cases because of the burning of all the evidences. The local police are also apprehensive because most of the released suspects have pending cases involving robbery and illegal drugs. While the release order is temporary, the dismissal of the criminal cases filed against the suspects would become effective after the prescribed period. Ol aguera, howe ver, warned that the suspect who would commit new crimes could face new criminal cases in court. Pol. Sup. Lemuel Gonda, head of the local police operations, said that the city’s police office have started coordinating with the city and provincial jail officials to get a profile of the release suspects. “A profile is very important so that the local law enforcers could track the suspects who were released because their criminal cases have been temporarily dismissed,” Gonda said. He said that each of the 10 police sub-stations in Cagayan De Oro City would have a profile of the criminal cases of the released suspects so that it would be easier to monitor them. Gonda also advised the local residents to be wary of the presence of the released suspects as Cagayan De Oro City have started preparing for the annual fiesta come August. Provincial Jail Warden Dominador Tagarda, of Misamis Oriental, said that 12 suspects facing charges with robberies and illegal drugs were set free because the prosecution failed to reconstitute their cases. More than 500 inmates in the city jail in Lumbia Rehabilitation Center here who are facing criminal cases have also found temporary freedom from January to May this year. The prosecution office here has given complainants

and lawyers of the criminal cases here three months or until May to reconstitute the cases, otherwise the suspects would be set free. Lawyers in cases involving civil cases, however, have reconstituted the cases because the complainants have the records while the courts keep the records of criminal cases, particularly the evidences.

Dacer when asked if Emano is still interested in joining the May 2016 mayoralty race. Dacer said various sectors, including barangay officials under Councilor Alam Lim, the representative of the Association of the Barangay Councils (ABC) to the City Council, have been asking Emano to run for mayor. Many barangay officials who are with the Liberal Party (LP) have signified their support for the mayoral bid of Emano in 2016, said Dacer. “Dili lang sa nato sila nganlan karon,”he said. Dacer, who is serving his last term as city councilor of Cagayan de Oro, said the local PaDayon Pilipino (PDP) under Emano is now ready for the May 2016 local and national elections. Councilor Ramon Tabor is reportedly joining the congressional race in the second district while Cagayan de Oro Vice Mayor Ian Acenas will join the congressional race in the first district. He said the PDP will support Vice President Jejomar Binay and some senatorial candidates.

She said that 2,324 children across Northern Mindanao have normalized after the children underwent a 120-day feeding program by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). “From 11.37 percent rate of malnutrition, there was a remarkable decrease to 9.60 percent of malnutrition among these children,” Solamillo said. The DSWD, through its Supplementary Feeding Program found the 15,007 children as malnourished after the social welfare department enrolled about 132,000 children to undergo the feeding program in the region. Solamillo said that the DSWD conducts the sixmonth feeding program in various day care centers in Northern Mindanao. She said that the National Statistics Office also showed in their 2006 Family Income and Expenditure Survey that about 1.1 percent of Filipino families were hungry and food-poor. “DSWD implemented

the SFP as a response to the urgent call to help the foodpoor families, especially their children,” Solamillo says. The SFP is the provision of hot meals during snack or mealtime to day care children five days a week for 120 days, she said. Solamillo said that the parents also help in the program by managing and preparing the food using indigenous food supplies guided by the DSWD and the local government units.

Monday, the military said. Capt. Jo-Ann Petinglay, spokesperson of the 6th Army Division said the two soldiers had just reached the arc marking the boundary of this town when the attack took place. Initial reports gathered by the military said the victims rode a motorcycle wearing athletic soldier’s attire to get more carpentry materials at their headquarters in Shariff Aguak town. They were traveling from Datu Unsay town where they were doing rehabilitation work for a school. But before the soldiers reached their destination assailants who were riding in tandem opened fire from behind using still unknown firearms. One was hit in the head and the other in the back. The assailants snatched the motorcycle of the soldiers and fled towards the so-called SPMS box. “SPMS box” refers to the adjoining towns of Shariff Aguak, Pagatin (Datu Saudi), Mamasapano and Shariff Saydona, all in Maguindanao where the BIFF operates. The soldiers meanwhile were rushed to the Maguindanao Provincial Hospital, but they were declared dead on arrival. The military withheld the names of the victims pending notification of their families. “It’s very unfortunate that these unarmed soldiers working for peace were killed in a treacherous way by the BIFF. They don’t even care for the future of the children in the area where these victims had dreamed also to uplift the education of the kids,” Petinglay in a statement. Efforts were underway to rehabilitate Meta Elementary school in Datu Unsay after the school was damaged by fire, bullets and mortar explosions during the war against the BIFF last year. Last week, the BIFF allegedly ambushed the 2nd Mechanized Battalion in Datu Piang town killing one soldier and wounding two others. This was followed by another ambush of two persons aboard a sports utility vehicle killing two persons one of whom was wearing a police uniform. Asked if the BIFF was behind these attacks, Abu Misry Mama, the group’s spokesperson replied via text message that “no other group now is fighting against the military, it is only the BIFF”.

EMPLOYEES VOLUNTEER FOR BRIGADA ESKWELA AS part of SM Supermalls’ SM Cares Project and Employee Volunteerism Program (EVP), SM City Davao, SM Lanang Premier, SM City Cagayan de Oro and SM City General Santos conducted ‘Brigada Eskwela’ clean-up and repair drives in day care centers as well as elementary school in their communities. Last June 6, SM City Davao volunteers along with the security team headed to Isla Swerte Daycare Center in Brgy 76-A, Times Beach. Armed with cleaning and carpentry materials, the volunteers were able to refurbish the center’s furniture, paint the classroom, fix lighting and electrical works as well as build an extension for the children’s pantry area. SM City Cagayan de Oro employees as well as security personnel also participated in this year’s ‘Brigada Eskwela’ by cleaning the classrooms donated by SM Prime Holdings, BDO Foundation and SM Foundation in Lumbia Elementary School last May 28. On June 13, SM Lanang Premier employees and security forces spent their day off extending a helping hand at Ibula Day Care Center at Brgy San Antonio, Agdao in Davao City. They installed a roofed lavatory for kids and a gutter, painted the walls and tables, polished the classroom floors, beautified the toilet, and donated an additional electric fan for the said day care center that caters to 25 students. Meanwhile, SM City General Santos volunteers from both admin personnel and security guards held a clean-up last June 18 at Sitio Toning Day Care Center. They cleaned the whole surroundings of the school, repaired the damaged roof and repainted the classroom. The volunteers further donated an electric fan, educational toys and slippers. “We feel very blessed to be adopted by SM,” social worker and day care in charge Lucy Remotigue said. Meanwhile, Maria Glinda Mercado, teacher in charge at Ibula Day Care Center, noted that that the installation of facilities, in particular an accessible lavatory through SM’s Brigada Eskwela, “has been beneficial in teaching the kids proper hygiene practices such as washing their hands before they eat.” SM’s Employee Volunteerism Program encourages employees to give back to the community and share their blessings with the needy sectors of the society.
