THE Cybercrime law or Republic Act 10175 will not only curtail the right of internet users but of everyone who has a cellphone because it covers text messages and calls as well, a lawmaker yesterday said.

Amante, Fortun lead LP bets file 2013 poll bids By PAT SAMONTE and JOEL PORTUGAL
BUTUAN City––Re-electionist Mayor Ferdinand Amante, Jr. and ViceMayor Lawrence Lemuel Fortun led local Liberal Party bets in formally filing on Friday their certificates of candidacy for the 2013 mid-term elections. Showing what political
analysts here said “strong unity and cohesiveness”, Amante, Fortun and company held a press conference at a local restaurant stressing a “renewed commitment to serve the people with sincerity and preserve the changes and gains earned by the community from good governance, accountability transparency and public
participation.” Following the press conference, Fortun, who is running for representative of the First District of Agusan del Norte walked with thousands of LP leaders and supporters to file his candidacy at the Commission on Election provincial office inside the capitol grounds a kilometer and a half away.
Amante, his vice-mayoral bet Councilor Angelo Calo and Sangguniang Panlungsod candidates went on foot to the City Comelec office half a kilometer from city hall to formally present their candidacies. They were met by a thunderous applause from barangay chairman and political supporters as they emerged from the
Comelec after the filing. The LP bets for the 10 SP seats include reelectionists Ramon Carampatana, Ryan Anthony Cu lima, Virgilio Ner y Jr., Jaime Cembrano, Jr. Ne w c om e r s are R e m a Erigbuagas-Burdeos, Rodrigo Dayaday, Ferdinand Nalcot, Gerr y Campos, Sammy Amante and Edward Yu Chan.
Based on Section 3(c) of the Cybercrime law, communication covered by the law refers to the transmission of information through ICT media, including voice, video, and other forms of data, said Partylist Rep. Teddy Casiño in a press statement. Casiño pointed out that Section 3(d) meanwhile defines computers and computer system covered by the law as “any type of computer device including devices with data processing capabilities like mobile phones, smart phones, computer networks and other devices connected to the Internet.” He said Section 6 further broadens the laws coverage to include “all crimes defined and penalized by the Revised Penal Code, as amended, and special laws, if committed by, through and with the use of information and communications technologies...” “This practically means that communications and data on any type of phone or ICT device are covered by this very repressive law,” said the lawmaker. “This means if I text my LAW | page 9

Woman held for stabbing husband inside hotel room By BEN D. ARCHE
DAVAO City – A woman, together with her 65-year old erstwhile lover are now detained at the San Pedro Police Station here after a fight with her husband inside Room 210 of Avenflor Inn on C.M. Recto Avenue this city on Friday. Police said the woman
allegedly stabbed her husband to defend her former boyfriend from further harm as mauled by her spouse. Chief Inspector Eliseo Malana Jr., San Pedro Police Station chief identified the victim as Junson Aporbo Berganio, 44, taxi driver, and the suspect, Pacita Sardido Berganio,
42, all residents of Crossing Bayabas, Piedad, Toril District. Malana also identified the alleged former lover as Leo Quich David, retired doctor, and resident of Aries Street, also in Toril. According to the police, David unluckily happened to ride the taxi driven by the victim in going
to the hotel. Suspecting to be his wife’s lover, he followed David several minutes after alighting from the taxi. At around 2:10 p.m. after the victim asked the front desk personnel of the room number of David, he proceeded to the room and was surprised to see his wife embracing David.
Angered by the scene, the husband immediately attacked David with a knife but the latter was able to wrestle and gave chance to the wife to take the knife and stabbed his husband. The victim sustained a single stab wound in his chest and brought to the Southern Philippines Medical Center while Da-
vid also landed at the Davao Doctor’s Hospital for bruises. On Thursday night, the victim said in a statement, his wife left their house without permission after their confrontation the night before. The wife and her lover are now awaiting the filing of complaint by the victim.
MILF now sees light at the end of the tunnel ZAMBOANGA City––The Philippines’ largest Muslim rebel group, Moro Islamic Liberation Front, said it is optimistic that it could sign a peace accord with Manila, ending decades of bloody fighting in Mindanao. “There is an increasing chance now, more than ever, that the Moros in Mindanao will get a better deal with the Manila government. Signs are great that the Aquino administration and even those not in the party in power is more open to finally settle this conflict in Mindanao,” the MILF said in a statement, adding there had been so much bloodshed and destruction because of hostilities and fighting in the southern region. P re s i d e nt B e n i g n o Aquino, in a public telecast on Sunday, said the government agreed with the MILF on the creation of a new autonomous political entity called “Bangsamoro” that will replace the current Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) which he called a “failed experiment.” “The ARMM is a failed experiment. Many of the people continue to feel alienated by the system, and those who feel that there is no way out will continue to articulate their grievances through the barrel of a gun. We cannot change this without structural reform. This is the context that informed our negotiations throughout the peace process. And now, we have forged an agreement that seeks to correct these problems. It defines our parameters and our objectives, while upholding the integrity and sovereignty of our nation,” Aquino said, reading from a teleprompter in Malacanang.

Solon pushes for new mining, Oro-Bukidnon watershed laws CAGAYAN de Oro City–– Senate bet Teddy Casiño (Makabayan Coalition) planed into this city to address the Mindanao Leaders Summit and bolster the campaign for the immediate passage of the proposed Philippine Mineral Resources Act and the CDO-Bukidnon watershed bill at the Balay Peace Center in Barangay Bulua. “There is a policy solution to the destruction of peoples lives and livelihood and environmental degradation due to large-scale and irresponsible mining. We have to pass a new mining law that will make the industry more responsive to the needs of our own economy and people. We need to push for the passage of the proposed Philippine Mineral Resources Act (PMRA) that is an amalgamation of the Alternative Mining Bill, the Alternative Minerals Management Bill and the Peoples Mining Bill,” Casiño, main author of the Peoples Mining Bill (House Bill
4315), said. Casiño said that he is working closely with a crosssection of legislators in the 15th Congress, including Cagayan de Oro Rep. Rufus Rodriguez and party-list Kaka Bag-ao for the passage of a new mining law as well as other urgent environment protection measures. “We have crossed party lines to push for a policy that will end the extract-toexport nature of the mining industry in the country. We all want to have a mining industry that is complete – from exploration to processing and manufacturing – that wisely utilizes our finite mineral resources for building local industries and real long-term job generation. An industry that respects the rights of indigenous peoples, local communities and local governments who shall choose other options such as agriculture before mining. The PMRA will be elevated to the mother committee hopefully within this month,” Casiño said.
The Makabayan senatorial candidate also added that the proposed Philippine Mineral Resources Act is better than Executive Order 79 that has not squarely addressed the problems of monitoring and enforcing mining industry regulations in current projects in Mindanao and the rest of the country. “I also strongly suggest to this Summit that another flank in our campaign should be to get pro-people mining ordinances or mining moratoriums in from local government units. We should continue our campaigns on the ground that have resulted in local ordinances for mining moratoria or banning of large-scale and destructive methods of mining by the local governments of South Cotabato, Zamboanga del Norte, Davao City, Southern Leyte, Eastern Samar, Negros Occidental, Capiz, Romblon, Marinduque, Mindoro Oriental, Albay, LAWS | page 9
K toi2: Lessons to be taught in mother tongue to help students learn better and stay in school LORELYN E. BORJA TEACHER III BALINGASAG CENTRAL SCHOOL MOTHER TONGUE-BASED MULTILINGUAL EDUCATION Besides increasing the number of years in school, the K tol2 program of the Department of Education (DepEd) has introduced another change in the country’s schooling system - using the mother tongue as medium of instruction. Many Filipino learners face barriers in education. One of these barriers is that our learners often begin their education in a language they do not understand. Because they do not understand the language of education, many learners become discouraged and tend to drop-out from school. Content of material is often culturally distant or unfamiliar to the learners. The limited education that learners receive does not prepare them for lifelong learning. Mother tongue-based multilingual education (MLE) is a formal or non formal education, in which the children’s mother tongue is used in the classroom as a bridge in learning Filipino and English. Children begin their education in a language they understand, their mother tongue, and develop a strong foundation in their mother language. The purpose of a multilingual education program is to develop appropriate cognitive and reasoning skills enabling children to operate equally in different languages - starting in the mother tongue with transition to Filipino and then English. It is a structured program of language learning and cognitive development which provides learners with a strong educational foundation in the first language. If the mother tongue is not used, we create people who are illiterate in two languages. Children do not become sufficiently fluent in their mother tongue (L1) in both oracy and literacy if their vocabulary in L1 is limited, thus restricting their ability to learn a second language (L2). A strong foundation in L1 is required for learning L2. Children’s understanding of concepts is limited or confused if leaning is only L2. The benefits of MLE include the following: * Reduced drop-out 13 Reduced repetition * Children are attending school. * Children are learning. * Parents and community are involved. * It is more cost - effective to implement mother tongue programs. The 12 languages as mediums of instruction are: Tagalog, Kapampangan, Pangasinense, lloko, Bikol, Cebuano, Hiligaynon, Waray, Tausug, Maguindanaoan, Maranao, and Chabacano. DepEd Undersecretary Yolanda Quijano explains that the MTB-MLE will help students understand their lessons better, at the same time infuse a sense of nationalism that she adds is still lacking among the youth.

A low profile leader wanted SINCE Jakarta city is the capital of Indonesia, this city tends to be used as a benchmark in any political consideration. There has been a so phenomenally political history after September 20 2012 in Jakarta. It is the elected governor in the Governor Election recently. Mostly, the political atmosphere in Indonesia has been influenced by the religious and ethnic issues. But, Jakarta, the mega metropolitan city has been noted as evidence inspiring the nation that such issues related to religion and ethnics are not the influential factors. This has been proved by the elected governor for Jakarta: the most crowded and densely populated city in Indonesia. Crowded city means that the most critical problem in this city is the traffic jam. People never enjoy their commuting from their houses to their work places. Densely populated city means that this city is inhabited by outnumber of people. As such, this city has the biggest problem dealing with curbing the population explosion. In addition, the flood is the most famous problem in this mega metropolitan city. These critical problems–up to now—have not yet been overcome successfully. Therefore, the new elected governor will be
DR. DJUWARI STIE Perbanas (College of Economics and Business) Surabaya, Indonesia encountered by those huge and challenging problems. Apart from Jakarta and its serious problems, the phenomenon of the low profile leader—the elected governor now—appears to be the best of the best. Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and his partner as the vice, Ahok, can be the real leaders. Especially, Jokowi who is from the remote area (compared to the other candidates) is not the Jakartanese. He is from Solo who is wellknown as the low profile leader. So far, people are questioning why he is elected as the leader. Mostly, the people from different regions throughout Indonesia talk a lot about him. This is the starting point thinking about the “real leader” who shows modesty and being close to the people, the laymen and the ordinary people.

THINK a minute. A pilot was flying his small airplane, a Cessna 150, when suddenly he lost control. His plane began spinning and falling to the ground! He panicked and began doing everything he could think of with the controls. Finally, after a few seconds, he remembered his teacher’s words of instruction: “If you ever go into a spin and start falling in this plane, the Cessna 150, just let go of the controls! This kind of plane will stop falling and fly straight again by itself.” But letting go of the controls and trusting the plane to fly straight and save him was the hardest, scariest thing for this pilot to do.
Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst Finally, he pulled his hands off the controls and waited. After many seconds of his Cessna plane spinning and falling, it returned to just normal, level flying and he was safe again! Even though the plane fell more than half a mile, the pilot survived because he trusted the plane enough to let go. If you’re in trouble or going through a major problem, decision, or crisis in

You know the best thing you can do is what that pilot finally did. Just take your hands off the controls and stop trying to change and fix that situation or person yourself. It’s hard to do, especially if you feel you’re the only person who is trying to do
anything about it. But why not just let go and ask Jesus to forgive you for living your own wrong way. Then, ask Him to take full charge of your whole life, including your problem. Put every area of your life into God’s hands: your future, schooling, job and family, all your worries and problems. It’s only then that Jesus can start making everything in your life work together for your good and happiness. Every day, Jesus will help you know what you should do, and also how to trust Him to always do His part. It’s only then that you’ll finally have real peace and confidence, even while you’ve got problems. Just Think a Minute.
‘Sakay sa panahon’
THE Liberal Party in Misamis Oriental and Cagayan de Oro City is among the country’s political party without credibility. Perhaps, this contention has something to do with the candidates and not the political party itself. With a line-up of former certified Lakas-Kampi officials, the LP in Misamis Oriental becomes ridiculous. What caught people’s attention Cris Diaz is the clamor of LP candidates to change the local leadership? They want some changes in Cagayan de Oro and Misamis Oriental’s political leadership. What change? Are these people serious? One could simply understand the hypocWANTED | page 9 risy of LP candidates in Misamis Oriental and Cagayan de Oro City. The truth is, the electorates in the province and city do not need changes. On the contrary, these LP candidates need changes among themselves. If it is, then the changes that these people are clamoring are changes that would suit their personal interests. It is likely in the

sense that these LP candidates are ‘sakay sa panahon’ (opportunists). If these people really need changes, their motives in joining the political exercise should not leave a room of suspicion. The fact that they were former Lakas-Kampi officials before joining LP already cast doubts on their intentions. Now, because they are with LP, they are mouthing changes! If these candidates are not a mockery then they are a farce. Maybe, local LP bets are thinking that the electorates in Misamis Oriental and Cagayan de Oro are dimwits. With this notion in mind, these candidates think they could fool people around and get away with it. Right from the start, the LP may have been aware that local electorates have already prejudged the candidates they are supporting in next year’s mid-term elections. It is a pity that some LP bets, neophytes as they are in politics, were duped into the joining the ticket. They should not be surprised if they are there as collateral of an impending debacle. These innocent candidates, although serious in their intentions, should not be surprised if junked by the electorates. It is part of being with the wrong side of the fence.

RP has no prohibition on ‘dynasties’ LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… Woe to the city of oppressors, rebellious and defiled… Her officials within her are roaring lions; her rulers are evening wolves, who leave nothing for the morning…” (Zephaniah 3:1, 3, the Holy Bible). -oooNO PROHIBITION ON DYNASTIES IN RP: So everyone will know, here is Section 26, Article II of the 1987 Constitution on “political dynasties”: “The State shall guarantee equal access to opportunities for public service, and prohibit political dynasties as may be defined by law.” The question here is this: with this kind of a Constitutional provision, is there a prohibition against political dynasties---or members of the same family being elected to office? The answer is a clear “no, there is no prohibition”. What Section 26 is
Kakampi mo ang batas Atty. Batas Mauricio saying is that, there will be a prohibition only if there is a law that prohibits political dynasties, or even a law that guarantees equal access to opportunities for public service. But, since the 1987 Constitution was ratified, there was never any law prohibiting political dynasties, nor a law that guarantees equal access to opportunities for public service. So what did the 1997 Constitution really provide on family members occupying elective positions? Nothing really, if we are to be honest about it. It was in reality a mere
“Constitutional suggestion”, nothing more, nothing less. This is the reason why we cannot really prohibit relatives of any incumbent or past official from running. This is the reason why we should really have a Charter Change now! -ooo“VOX POPULI, VOX DEI”: And Press Undersecretary Abigail Valte is correct: dynasties are elected by the people themselves. So if the people are sovereign, as they are sovereign according to the Preamble and Section 1, Article II, of the 1987 Constitution, and, in the exercise of their
sovereign power they elect members of one family to office, who could contest that? No one, of course, because as the Latin maxim says, “vox Populi, vox Dei”--the voice of the people is the voice of God. But then there is just one tiny problem relative to this in the Philippines, where the “voice of the people” is routinely subverted and at times manufactured, so that there is always a lingering doubt whether that “voice” is really theirs, or is from God. Subverted, you ask? Well, you should see the election protests after every election hereabouts--they all cry “foul” that the results announced to the people and upheld by the government through the Commission on Elections are “fraudulent” and the result of cheating.

The Making of an Ineffective School and the Way to Effectiveness By MARIA FIDELA C. SALVADOR
THE role of the school in the educative process is very important because this is the most ideal place for learning. Learning, as it relates to school improvement, may also be derived from socially constructed interpretation of facts and knowledge. But this will not be materialized if the people in school choose to make the school as ineffective. What makes it ineffective? It was one of our Ph.D classes when we were asked by our professor to give the characteristics of ineffective teachers and many characteristics came out. I realized that if all those given characteristics were present in a school system most probably the school will become ineffective. The way to an ineffective school is having teachers who don’t care to do their duties and responsibilities. They just come to school because it is their job, unmindful of the things they are going to impart to the innocent pupils.
Children on the hand will not look forward to go to school every day because they feel that they are not properly taken care of. The things that they are expecting to see in school are not there. The scenario of an ineffective school is not pleasant and not conducive to learning. The school building is there but it does not serve its salient purpose. The school leaders of an ineffective school care less of the welfare of his teachers and pupils. He does not perform his responsibilities and duties and he will not find innovative ways to develop the school. Instead, he is there just because he has an appointment from higher officials. Don’t they know that being a teacher and school leader is a mission? After formulating all of those, I ponder over how an ineffective school will go its way towards effectiveness. Yes, teachers and school leaders as we are can make a difference. Being a school leader the way to effectiveness is a tough job and full of challenges. It
needs a determined heart and strong will to do it. School leaders hold a unique position in a school organization towards its effectiveness. Leaders could transform the organization by using specific leadership behaviors in interactions with co workers and utilizing effective strategic leadership (Yukl,2008). I have learned that one way of managing people is using the heart. That is why leaders should have the heart for his people so that the members will look up to them with respect and honor. School leaders and teachers as well, assume a wide range of roles to support school and student success. Whether these roles are assigned formally or shared informally, they build the entire school's capacity to improve and pave its way towards effectiveness. In this way they will be able to shape the culture of their school, improve student learning, and contribute in many ways something that will make the school very effective. Advertorial
Cyber law violates basic human rights By BONG D. FABE Correspondent
CAGAYAN de Oro City––A renowned human rights defender yesterday slammed the Senate, Bicameral Conference Committee and Malacanang for violating the basic human rights of Filipinos by passing R.A. 10175 or the Cybercrime Prevention Law. “The Cybercrime Prevention Law is not an issue about an information tool but a basic human rights issue kasi ang nakasalang dito ay yung access to information, right to free expression and free will,” Rep. Teddy Casiño told this reporter in an interview on the sidelines of the Partners-Mindanao Leaders Summit at the Peace Center of Balay Mindanaw in Bulua Saturday morning. Casiño, who is running for a seat in the Senate in next year’s midterm election, also hold accountable the Senate and the Bicameral Conference Committee

for inserting provisions in the law that violates the basic human rights of Filipinos, which he said were not in the version the House of Representatives passed. “That is why we filed last Tuesday a bill calling for the repeal of three particular provisions that we think
violates of human rights -- online libel, take down provision and surveillance,” he said. “Nagulat talaga kami. We Thought that what was signed was what was passed in the House of Representatives. We only learned about these provisions after
the President signed it,” he added. “Parang naisahan nila ang Kongreso,” he stressed. President Aquino defended the law on Friday. But Casiño said that the President “has no choice but to defend himself because he signed it into law.” Casiño also said that there is also a need to look at how laws are passed, especially on the role and power of the Bicameral Conference Committee. “This cybercrime law has an implication on the ways laws are passed in this country. I think we need to look into this also. Because it was not transparent, eh,” he said. Transparency is one of the campaign promises of the Aquino administration. But it is not being questioned especially with the passage of the RA 10175. The United Nations has declared that all people has the right to freely and openly express themselves online. (Bong D.

The tradition of vote buying THE Ang Kapatiran (Political) Party/AKP espouses amongst many positions for political correction the traditional practice of spending millions for political positions during elections as well as during any incumbency. The practice of vote buying is a clear violation under Comelec rules, our Republic Acts and the Constitution. Unfortunately this practice has Harry Tambuatco extended for the incumbents to continuously hand-out cash directly to the people from their very offices. Why does a legislator hand-out cash to its constituents if not to muster support ahead of any election. The COA has been remiss in identifying sources of funds extracted from government coffers for one reason or other. A tradition does not correct an erroneous practice. AKP clearly espouses to not buy any election nor to dole out money only to retrieve this in some other dubious way. I have thrown my hat into the ring to champion the ideals for “sagip tao- spillway na!” to address the devastation of the Laguna de Bay and the misery it causes his constituents every time the floods are exacerbated. “We need to build a spillway and if necessary introduce a business model to pave the way for its immediate construction. If we don’t do it now, it will have to be done in a decade if not two… so why wait and cause the death of more people and destruction to properties.” Confronted by traditional practices I am determined to run for the elections for Congress for Muntinlupa against political stalwarts former Senator Rodolfo Biason gunning for his second term. “It is time to form an alliance of concerned legislators to associate for a common cause to save the people from the bay and natures wrath as flood waters drain into it. It is also unfortunate our lawmakers have not tackled the issue to date. It is imperative and it is time to implement action!” The culture of impunity and the tradition of giving cash directly to the people other than hand-outs be it food, medicine, clothing, scholarships and or vouchers for collection for any sort is buying the people outright. The people know of this practice and hence expect it from their politicos unmindful of its sources. “We need to put a stop to the tradition Robin Hood has introduced and allow government to supply the benefits of the state directly without political debt. The state is required after all to look after its people by ways legislated by the people’s representatives and not by the dynasties turned oligarchies putting the people in bondage by way of bearing gifts.” The prevailing question; will this election put a stop to dynasties, bad practices, wrong traditions and the culture of impunity for Muntinlupa and other parts of the country? The option for correction together with the determination of sound legislator can make these changes in spite of the odds and if not, only the people will suffer their consequences, attributed to Tambuatco. --Editorial note: Mr. Harry Tambuatco is the President and CEO of SUPERBRAND MARKETING INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Zaldy Ampatuan’s petition denied with finality THE Supreme Court of the Philippines denied “with finality” the motion for reconsideration filed by one of the primary accused in the Ampatuan (Maguindanao) Massacre last August 15, 2012. The Freedom Fund for Filipino Journalists (FFFJ) received a notice from the Supreme Court last October 4, 2012. FFFJ counsel represents 17 private complainants in the multiple murder case. The Third Division of the
Supreme Court in its 15 August 2012 resolution denied former ARMM Governor Zaldy Ampatuan’s motion seeking to overturn the June 25, 2012 denial of his petition for review on certiorari. The court in its June 25, 2012 resolution said Zaldy Ampatuan “failed to show that the Court of Appeals committed any reversible error in affirming the May 5, 2010 resolution of the Department of Justice….” “No substantial arguments
were raised to warrant its reconsideration,” the Third Division said in its August 15, 2012 resolution. Zaldy’s petition for review on certiorari asked the Supreme Court to reverse the Court of Appeals in Manila’s decision to junk his petition for certiorari and prohibition seeking to annul his indictment in the 57 counts of murder pending before Branch 221 of the Regional Trial Court of Quezon City. Zaldy is among the 196 ac-
cused charged for the killing of 58 persons including 32 journalists and media workers who were on their way to Shariff Aguak, Maguindanao to file the certificate of candidacy of former Buluan Vice Mayor and now Maguindanao Governor Esmael “Toto” Mangudadatu. As of this writing, only two members of the powerful Ampatuan clan—Andal Sr. and Andal “Unsay” Jr.—had been arraigned in connection with the Massacre. cmfr

ARISP takes off in Laguindingan By EDITHA R. SALVADOR CAGAYAN de Oro City––The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) in Region 10 led the groundbreaking ceremony for two road concreting projects in Laguindingan in Misamis Oriental held on October 2 this year together with the local government officials and staff from the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH). Funded under the Agrarian Reform Infrastructure Support Project (ARISP) sponsored by Japan International Cooperation Agency and the Government of the Philippines, the projects consist of the concreting of the junctions of the provincial road traversing the Poblacion, Aromahon, Lapad and Sinai (PALS) Agrarian Reform Community. One project will cover the junction from barangay Benigwayan to Purok 2 in Barangay Lapad with a total length of 4.37 kilometers costing about P30.3 million. The other project will cover the junction from Barangay Aromahon to Barangay Sinai with a total length of 1.5 kilometers at a cost of about P10.1 million. DAR-10 Regional Director Felix Aguhob and Misamis Oriental Provincial Agrarian Reform Officer (PARO)Zoraida Macadindang led the DAR officials and staff who attended the event. Aguhob lauded the local government of Laguindingan for the support and cooperation it has extended for the realization of the project. Mayor Oliver Ubaub, meanwhile, expressed his gratitude to the DAR officials for the above-mentioned infrastructure projects that are expected to boost the economic status of the covered communities. Other town government and barangay officials also witnessed the occasion. The municipality of Laguindingan hosts the Laguindingan Airport, a state-of-the-art structure that will soon cater to the increasing air travel demands of the riding public in the booming Cagayan-Iligan corridor.

DENR-10 undertakes 6 cadastral survey projects
DA chief visits model agri research center, grants P23 million projects for Region 10 AGRICULTURE Secretary Proceso J. Alcala (middle) and two Bukidnon indigenous tribesmen Martin Ilaga and Mentilio Bajao proudly show their harvest of coffee berries, during the annual farmers’ field day and technology forum, at the Northern Mindanao Integrated Agricultural Research Center (NOMIARC), in Dalwangan, Malaybalay City, Bukidnon. He instructed the DA regional directors nationwide to make NOMIARC as a model in showcasing to farmers, the general public and interested investors the best farming and livestock raising technologies, equipment, agricultural
practices, including outstanding crops and livestock species. During the forum––attended by more than 1,000 farmers and local officials in Bukidnon and other Northern Mindanao provinces––the DA chief handed over to dozens of farmers’ groups and local government units P23-million worth of various farm equipment, facilities and inputs. He was assisted by Bukidnon Governor Alex Calingasan, DA Northern Mindanao Regional Director Lealyn Ramos and NOMIARC manager Juanita Salvani. Photo by Alan Jay Jacalan, DA Information Service)
TO CONTRIBUTE TO COUNTRYSIDE DEVELOPMENT, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Region 10 (DENR 10) has six on-going Cadastral Survey Projects which were bidded and awarded early this year and additional 11 projects slated to be awarded this year. The six on-going Cadastral Survey Projects include the municipalities of Baloi, Pantar, Lala and Matungao in the province of Lanao del Norte; Gingoog City and Libona, Bukidnon. The survey of these areas are undertaken by contractors commissioned by DENR-10. Regional Technical Director Paquito D. Melicor, Jr. said the implementation of the Cadastral Survey Projects is in consonance with the directive of President Benigno S. Aquino III to complete the nationwide cadastral survey before the end of his term in 2016. He further said that these projects are under Category B which entails political boundary survey and es-
tablishment of Philippine Reference System of 1992 (PRS92) geodetic control points. It was gathered that out of the 23 new Cadastral Survey Projects bidded this year only six projects implemented as of to date. Eleven Cadastral survey projects bidded on August 30, 2012 and to be awarded also this year are Iligan City, Poona Piagapo, Pantao Ragat, Baroy, and Maigo, all in the province of Lanao del Norte; Claveria, Misamis Oriental; Concepcion and Plaridel, Misamis Occidental; Pangantucan, Malaybalay City and Valencia City in Bukidnon. Seven Cadastral survey projects to be re-bidded are Tubod, Magsaysay, Munai, Nunungan, Salvador, Sapad and Tangkal, all in the province of Lanao del Norte. The Cadastral Survey Program is one of the priority programs of DENR. It refers to the survey made to determine the metes and bounds and areas of an entire municipality or city. It facilitates the government’s land titling program
and serves as the basis in the settlement of political boundary disputes. Director Melicor disclosed that technical meetings are conducted by DENR 10 with contractors and local government officials to thresh out issues concerning political boundary disputes. He stressed that the DENR provides technical assistance to local government units (LGUs) in order for them to solve political boundary disputes. It is imperative that LGUs should settle their boundary conflict since the land area affects the Internal Revenue Allotment released to them, he said. Meanwhile, Cadastral Survey Projects which were started in 2010 and are under office verification include the City of Cagayan de Oro, Opol, El Salvador City, Alubijid, Laguindingan, Gitagum, Villanueva and Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental; and municipalities of Aloran, Panaon and Lopez Jaena, Misamis Occidental.

He has been noted by all his people as friendly and wise man during his being the mayor in Solo city. People throughout Indonesia have noted that Solo city is too small compared to Jakarta, the mega metropolitan. Again, comparing Solo and Jakarta in terms of the social and political problems, all people in Indonesia will understand that Solo is not the same as Jakarta. However, Jokowi is proved to be the best one—with the criteria of being always together with the low people. He is elected mostly due to his being low profile, but serious in working hard for the people under his leadership. All these evidences are in fact derived from the period of his being the mayor in the smaller city: compared to Jakarta. Through Jokowi’s figure being elected a governor for the capital of Indonesia, this political history phenomenon has been noted by not only Indonesian people but also by the nations worldwide. Such phenomenon has also been noted by the media especially in United States of America (USA) and England. Jokowi (Joko Widodo) and his vice, Ahok, are making the political and democracy history concerning the regional leader election. This is so phenomenal because of the elected governor candidate’s figure. In terms of education on politics, the people throughout Indonesia have learned a lot from this democracy implementation. It was free from money politics. No wonder that this historical governor election has been covered by some newspapers in America and England. Mr. Jokowi is the furniture businessman from Solo city, where he has been the mayor recently. Going to Jakarta, Jokowi has to struggle for a governor position with low profile but getting more sympathy from the Jakarta’s people. Will this phenomenon of the low profile leader be wanted by other regional leader
elections in this country? Just wait! Dr. Djuwari is the director of Language Laboratory at STIE Perbanas Surabaya Indonesia; he had been the leader of general election winning team of the postreform era political party in East Java 2002-2003.

Cadbury. They have been increasing their purchases of raw materials like cocoa from certified members in developing countries for the chocolate manufacturing industry in the EU. As of September this year, 100 participating organizations have joined the T4SD bandwagon in addition to some of the biggest multinational companies that initiated it with the ITC. A total of 75 standards systems have become operational in 100 countries covering 40 sectors. Joining the T4SD is free of charge for all standards that meet the following criteria: existence of a published set of criteria and indicators, existence of an implementation system that is operational or nearing operational status, the requirements include at least one pillar of sustainable development. ITC likewise implements data quality protocols in processing any application for certification of membership. One of the most beneficial impact of T4SD membership for exporters and producers is that they get directly linked to the global value chain, giving them better access to their markets. -- Abe P. Belena, PHILEXPORT News and Features

By GERRY L. GORIT CAGAYAN de Oro City–– The Bureau of Customs here is set to exceed its collection target for the month of August 2012. Customs collector Anju Nerio Castigador said they have already collected more than P400-million and will exceed the P500-million target when the expected payment of P100-milllion from a petroleum company is on hand. Castigador added that they expect to continue the same performance in the remaining months of the year with the coming increase in collection from importations for the Christmas season. He said this will make t h e m re a c h t h e i r a s signed collection target of P5,729,154,000. As of yesterday their actual collection stands at P3,856,437,799.16.

The current actual collection, Castigador said, is already in excess of about P120-million for the period and that compared to last year for the same period they have already registered an excess of some P507-million.
“We will continue our efforts towards improving collection on a day to day basis,” he said, as he attributed the good performance to the proper duties and taxes imposed since he came here.

New trading standards Free trainings in October defying slowdown in west set TO ENCOURAGE the esA NEW SET OF TRADING STANDARDS adopted by the private sector called Trade for Sustainable Development or T4SD in short, is catching fire in Europe and the United States and defying the economic slowdown in both areas. This was revealed by David Wozniak, manager for analysis and research of the International Trade Centre (ITC), a non-government economic think-tank based in the EU, during a recent advocacy seminar on nontariff barriers to trade and their impact on exporters from the third world.
