Cenro fields 350 sweepers By Che Palicte
t
He city environment and natural resources office (Cenro) has deployed 350 street sweepers, including park maintenance personnel, tuesday evening to ‘go bayanihan’ in cleaning up election materials such as posters and tarpaulins, around the city. Cenro chief Joseph Dominic felizarta told edge Davao that the estimated timeframe for the cleanup is two weeks which will consist of removing election paraphernalia posted in public places. “this is a continu-
ing effort, we will not wait for the political candidates to clean up their mess because it keeps raining and these materials may cause clogging of canals,” he explained, adding that some parts of the downtown area, toril, Calinan and Mintal are already clean of election materials. Meanwhile, felizarta continues to urge village officials to keep monitoring garbage collection points in their jurisdiction to ensure that waste thrown by households and establishments in garbage bins are segre-
gated. Davao City has implemented a mandatory waste segregation scheme under the ecological Solid Waste Management Ordinance of 2009, obliging households and establishments to segregate garbage according to types of solid waste which are either, biodegradable, recyclable and residual. residents are encouraged to practice backyard composting for biodegradable wastes, or turn them over to the villages. recyclable wastes may be sold to junk
shops while residual and special wastes are to be deposited at designated collection points only during throwing time which is from 6 to 9 PM. Non-segregation of solid waste is prohibited. first offenders are fined PHP 300 and are required to undergo a mandatory seminar. A fine of PHP 500 is exacted if they violate the law for the second time and a five-day community service, while third offenders are fined PHP 1,000 and are required to render a 10-day community service.
He Department of education (Deped) 11 hailed the signing of the enhanced Basic education Act of 2013, commonly known as K+12 Basic education program, into law by President Benigno Aquino yesterday. Students will now undergo kindergarten plus 12 years of basic education (six years Primary education, four years Junior High School, and two years of Senior High School [SHS]), before going to college.
With this, students will be provided sufficient time for mastery of concepts and skills, develop lifelong learners, and prepare graduates for tertiary education, middle-level skills development, employment, and entrepreneurship. It includes seven learning areas under the Core Curriculum. these are: Languages, Literature, Communication, Mathematics, Philosophy, Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences. General education sub-
jects are also embedded in the SHS curriculum. Jenielito Atillo, spokesperson of Deped-11, told edge Davao yesterday that Deped sees a bright future in the education system of the country. “Before this program was signed into law, we really pushed it to have a better education program in the country. Now that our dream has come true, we are very happy,” Atillo said. He added that the program will provide more knowledge, skills
and opportunities which further equip students as far as the demands of life are concerned. “this will certainly help them in acquiring work even after they finish secondary education,” he said. “With this new education curriculum, we can provide good graduates that would somehow help the country’s economic status. their skills and knowledge will be a great contribution to our country,” he explained.

Ampoloquio said the CBOC cannot declare the second district council winners yet pending the remaining returns. “We cannot print the COC (certificate of canvass) for only one to seven winning candidates as the machine is programmed to print the complete set of eight winners,” Ampoloquio said. “We cannot bypass the program, it prevents us from printing the COC which the candidates must sign before proclamation.”
