DTI tells consumers: ‘Stand up for your rights’ By Rutchie Cabahug-Aguhob

OZAMIZ City - Consumers have the right to redress or the right to be compensated for misrepresentation, shoddy goods or unsatisfactory services. To exercise this right, consumers are advised to go

to the consumers’ welfare desks set up in commercial establishments, where these goods were bought, Delia M. Ayano, provincial director of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Misamis Occidental, said.

“By shoddy goods, we mean ‘goods that are badly-made, of poor-quality, inferior or second or third rate’ and consumers have the right to ask for compensation, in case, they are unsatisfied with such goods,” she said. Meanwhile, Ayano said

there are eight basic rights of consumers, and the right to redress is only one of them. On top of the list is the right to basic needs, which means that every consumer has the right to basic goods and services that guarantee survival, adequate food, clothing, shelter, health care,

education and sanitation. Another right of the consumer is the right to safety or the right to be protected against the marketing of goods or provision of services that are hazardous to health and life. Meanwhile, consumers See consumers, page B3

DPWH hailed among top performing gov’t agencies

“Thank you and let us continue serving our country.” This was the reaction of Public Works and Highways Secretary Rogelio L. Singson to the July 2014 net satisfaction rating survey result conducted among Philippine business executives who are members of the Makati Business Club (MBC) which gave positive mark to the performance of DPWH. With a net score of 55.4 at 76.9 percent satisfied and 21.5 percent not satisfied in the performance rating period of July 2013 to June 2014, the DPWH posted big leap to 12th place among 62 government agencies including Constitutional Offices from its 27th rank in the previous rating period.

Secretary Singson attributed the positive outcome of the latest perception survey among members of MBC to appreciation of the Department’s transformation program particularly reforms in the processes anchored on promoting right project with right cost and right quality, and right-on-time implementation by the right people. Other than the MBC, DPWH stellar performance was also cited by no less than the President in his recent State of the Nation Address while the agency was a recipient of “Gold Trailblazer Award” from the Institute for Solidarity in Asia and National Competitiveness Council for garnering highest

rating among the government agencies which presented performance reports under the Performance Governance System (PGS) during the Public Governance Forum held last April 11, 2014. DPWH is consistently being number one – five times in P.G.S. performance since P.G.S. reporting started in 2010. Already, combination of reforms and strict adherence to competitive bidding has enabled DPWH to save P27.79 billion from July 2010 to May 2014. DPWH savings, derived from the approved budget for the contract (ABC) less the awarded amount, are being utilized by the government for additional scope of work or projects, which include roads, bridges, flood control, and disaster-related rehabilitation projects. In recent years under the Aquino administration, DPWH has simplified bidding process and eliminated the submission of Letter of

Intent to achieve the right cost encouraging participation of more bidders and eliminating possible collusion among bidders. In addition, the Department remove the use of credit line certification from banks as basis for computing a contractors Net Financial Contracting Capacity. As key strategy to fast track implementation of projects, Secretary Singson ordered the clustering of projects so that these will be implemented by qualified contractors with complete construction equipment resulting to better quality of work and more cost effect indirect cost/margins. He explained that inasmuch as the time to process/ procure small projects including supporting documents is same with that of big projects, clustering will reduce procurement time as well conduct of preconstruction activities and will improve efficiency.

Dutch coco firm to invest in Sarangani ENERAL Santos City - Netherlands-based Van D e r Kn a ap Group of Companies is planning to pour in investments in Sarangani Province as part of its continuing expansion in various parts of the country. Sarangani Gov. Steve Chiongbian Solon said the international company, which mainly produces and markets coco peat, is currently exploring the viability of expanding its operations in the area. He said company officials and representatives

disclosed such plan in a recent meeting at the provincial capitol in Alabel town. “The company initially manifested interest to invest in the province through various ventures,” the governor said. Solon said the local government assured the company of its full support and assistance in case it proceeds with its planned expansion in the area. He cited that the province has “everything the company needs from raw materials to manpower.” Sarangani, which has six coastal municipalities, is one of Mindanao’s top producers of coconut and its byproducts. Coconut is extensively cultivated in the province with plantations reaching around 78,000 hectares, based on the local government’s data. The Van Der Knaap Group initially

These include the P28million corn processing and trading center that DA recently opened in Tayabas City, Quezon to cater to the postharvest requirements of thousands of farmers from Quezon and some parts of nearby Batangas. DA, through the lead effort of the Sugar Regulatory Administration, also continues to undertake the sugarcane block-farming project, in partnership with the Department of Agrarian Reform. In this initiative, small farms owned by land reform beneficiaries were consolidated into integrated farming blocks of 30 to 50 hectares to attain economies of scale and promote Republic of the Philippines Department of Transportation and Communications LAND TRANSPORTATION FRANCHISING AND REGULATORY BOARD Region X, Cagayan de Oro City

initiative and its focus on post-harvest technology and collective marketing, as part of its Agri-Pinoy commodity programs. This way, he said, farmers are assisted to produce economies of scale and added value as required by bigger markets. “Tatlong taon at kalahati na ang nakararaan, nanindigan tayo sa Agri Pinoy, isang estratehiyang pangagrikultura na holistiko at sumasakop sa buong value chain, tuluy-tuloy o sustainable at nilalahukan at pinakikinabangan ng lahat o inklusibo,” Alcala said. (For the past 3 ½ years, we carry out the Agri-Pinoy framework, a holistic and sustainable approach to development that involves and benefits every single player in the value chain.”) He mentioned the establishment of processing and marketing hubs dubbed as Agri-Pinoy Trading Centers designed to provide direct linkage between food producers and consumers, which translates to a more stable and affordable supply for consumers. Built strategically across the country, these trading centers are equipped with storage, transport and market facilities. In several cases, these hubs are intended to serve as training centers where farmers will be taught about the latest and appropriate technologies that will help them produce high quality commodities at lower costs. This year alone, DA hopes to start the operations of seven trading centers nationwide, in tandem with farmers’ organizations

signified last year to invest as much as US$ 1.5 million for the processing and marketing of coco peat. The company identified Mati, Davao Oriental as possible site of its processing plant due to the availability of raw materials. Coco peat, which is made from coconut husks, initially emerged in the 90s as a raw material for potting soil as well as organic and recyclable product with many possibilities for all types of cultivation. Raw coco peat is currently being sold in the local market as soil conditioner and is not being processed into coco peat products used for horticultural and agricultural applications. Through processing, coco peat can be turned into a high value planting medium that can be exported.

On the other hand, consumers have the right to choose products and ser vices at competitive prices with an assurance of satisfactory quality, meaning nobody should force them to buy goods that they don’t like.

cost-efficient sugar farming practices. As of December 2013, some 28 sugar farm blocks have been established. In addition, one essential feature of the upcoming Philippine Rural Development Project (PRDP), Alcala said, is the clustering of farms and production and marketing facilities along the value chain to ensure the production of marketable surpluses, increased incomes and better quality of life for all farmers. PRDP, which DA will officially launch in Cebu next month, is a largely infrastructure initiative assisted by the World Bank that support value-adding and crop diversification activities for priority com-

modities. In the pipeline this year under PRDP’s i-REAP component are 32 agribusiness ventures worth P471.9 million. These include coffee processing in Kalinga, dairy in Cagayan Valley, “kasuy” processing in Palawan, and coconut geonet and sap sugar in Bicol. Also part of DA’s strategy to prosper in an increasingly competitive global trade is the continuing negotiations for the harmonization of ASEAN food and agricultural products standards, including the passage of the Food Safety Law last year. Which is why, Alcala said, DA supports AgriLink, and considers it to be yet another strong step toward the attainment of a

modernized economy and a resilient, more competitive national agricultural landscape. “I thank and commend the FRLD and the other organizers of this Agrilink, Foodlink and Aqualink event for their perseverance in giving us this yearly showcase of the Philippines’ best agricultural products,

processes, machineries and achievements,” he said. According to the DA chief, agribusiness trade shows such as Agrilink, in fact, reflects the enthusiasm and vibrancy of the farm and fishery sector that translates to enhanced food security and higher quality of life for the stakeholders.
