Briefly Youth entrep THE DEPARTMENT of Trade and Industry (DTI) said Monday that it launched a youth entrepreneurship training program in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.

Trade Secretary Ramon M. Lopez at the virtual launch said the program will offer training for business pitching, self-employment, and trade fair participation.

“The program will encourage and embolden the participation of MSME (micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprise) enablers in supporting youth entrepreneurship development and promotion in the region,” he said.

Cacao intercrop THE cacao industry has the potential to improve if farmers intercrop with coconut, a crop due to receive substantial support from a newlysigned law, according to the Department of Agriculture (DA).

Agriculture Undersecretary Evelyn G. Laviña said by e-mail that a nixed crop of cacao and coconut can help increase incomes and productivity in both industries.

Ms. Laviña said the cacao and coconut industries are set to benefit from Republic Act No. 11524, or the Coconut Farmers and Industry Fund Act.

LOCAL company in Cagayan de Oro City has been helping promote the use of renewable energy in Mindanao for more than a decade producing 2.508 megawatts (MW) of installed solar panels to power homes, offices, streetlights, and farms.

“The sun is the limit,” said Engr. Cerael Donggay, Greenergy Solar’s president and chief executive officer, on the huge, still-untapped

market for solar energy not just in Mindanao but in the entire country.

“Greenergy Solar, whose slogan is ‘Hire the Sun,’ has

certainly come a long way,” Donggay said in a statement.

Greenergy Development Corporation, the parent company of Greenergy Solar, turns 13 years old and has been harnessing the power of the sun as a source of energy.

Four years after its first commercial solar installation, the company’s installed capacity is now close to triple the installed capacity of the 1 MW on-grid photovoltaic COMPANY/PAGE 7

Davao City LGU won’t ban travelers from Northern Mindanao

By ANTONIO L. COLINA IV, MindaNews

DAVAO City– The City Government of Davao will not ban travelers coming from Northern Mindanao even after six cases of the highly transmissible Delta variant or B.1.617.2 were detected there, Mayor Sara Duterte said Monday.

Instead of a travel ban, Duterte said over Davao City Disaster Radio (DCDR 87.5) that the local government would continue to enforce the existing protocols, including the “symptoms screening” at the border checkpoint.

She said the city government would continue to implement the Regional Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Disease and the Regional Task Force Against COVID-19 (RIATF-RTF) on the “Uniform Guidelines to Regulate Entry and Exit in Regional Borders of Region 11” issued last May 3.

Duque tells Cagayan de Oro, Gingoog to intensify contact-tracing to curb spread of Delta variant

HEALTH Secretary Francisco Duque III tasked frontline health workers in the cities of Cagayan de Oro and Gingoog in Misamis Oriental to intensify their contact-tracing efforts to prevent the spread of the highly infections Delta variant of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

He told the two mayors that they should assume the possibility that there is already community transmission of the Delta variants in their cities.

Cagayan de Oro and Gingoog were placed under the strictest Enhanced Community Quarantine last Friday after six cases of the Delta variant were found.

Marawi residents celebrate Eid al-Adha amid pandemic

By DIVINA SUSON, Correspondent

MARAWI City– Hundreds of Meranaws flocked on Tuesday morning to the Lanao del Sur Provincial Capitol grounds here to say their prayers for Eid al-Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice.

Despite the movement restrictions due to the pandemic, elderly men and women, as well as children, gathered at the Capitol complex to perform the prayer while facing the masjid.

Police Col. Rex Derilo, director of the provincial police, said Lanao del Sur, including Marawi City, is under Modified Enhanced Community

Quarantine. The mass gathering has been allowed provided they maintain the 50 percent capacity of the venue and observe standard health protocols.

Aleem Alibasher Abdulatif, the Imam who led the prayer, said the subject of their prayer is to ask for forgiveness and to do sacrifice like what the Meranaws did in the past five celebrations of Eid alAdha.

"Itong mga ginagawa natin ay humihingi tayo ng patawad sa mga nagawang pagkakamali dahil marami sa atin ang nagkakamali.

Ang ginawa ng Panginoon na isinakripisyo niya

ang kanyang anak, yan din ang nangyayari sa amin na dalawang taon, tatlong taon na, nangyari ang Marawi siege, ito na namang pandemic. Isang malaking sakripisyo ito para sa amin (What we are doing is ask forgiveness for the wrongdoings we have made, as we have committed trespasses.

God’s deed to sacrifice his son is similar to our experience in the past two, three years – the Marawi siege, the pandemic. This is a big sacrifice for us)," Abdulatif said.

He added that in their prayers, they seek more patience to endure the situation of Meranaws who have been displaced

"Hiniling namin sa Allah na gabayan sila dahil hindi nila (kaya) kung sila

GENERAL Santos City – The province of Sarangani is home to probably the biggest carabao in Mindanao.

An 18-year-old carabao owned by a farmer in Barangay Pangi, Maitum town has won an online

fun search for the biggest traditional farm animal initiated by Mindanao Development Authority chairperson, Secretary Emmanuel Piñol.

It measures 141 inches long from nose to tail and 61 inches tall, much larger than the 50 inches to 54 inches average for a male Philippine carabao or domestic swamp-type

water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis).

“This is the biggest that I’ve seen in my entire life,” Piñol said in a video posted on YouTube on Friday.

He visited Barangay Pangi on July 13 to see the huge carabao and its owner, 88-year-old farmer Flaviano Tamba.

Influence of Teacher Effectiveness

JESSELLE MARTINEZ MADERA Teacher 3 – Hinaplanan Elementary School

Everyone knows that when it comes to making a difference in a child’s academic and life achievements, their teachers play large role. A teacher’s ability to relate to their students, and teach them to achieve both socially and academically contributes

to how effective they are.

Although many experts can and certainly do express opinions about the nature of influence of an effective teacher, anyone who has been to school and experienced the full spectrum of teachers, from educators who excel at their craft to those who are barely getting by, can probably lay out the main features that distinguish the best teachers.

Develop relationship influences the best teachers to get to know their students as individuals. This is not only assisting educators in tailoring lessons to the learning levels and styles of their students, but it can also build important mentoringtype relationships. Hand in hand with developing re l at i ons h ip, a te a ch e r who exhibits patience and a kind attitude towards students wins their trust and respect, which are important components of a student’s willingness to work hard and ability to learn new material.

Teachers are confronted with a constantly changing educational environment.

The student body changes from one year to the next, the class curriculum is altered, new teaching technologies are introduced, crises or pandemics appear and new administrators arrive with different expectations from those that came before.

Students, or their parents, also come each year with changing expectations for what a teacher can or should accomplish for the school year.

ALES of imported vehicles in the country improved by 55 percent to 30,153 units in the first half of the year from 19,509 units in the same period in 2020, the Association of Vehicle Importers and Distributors (AVID) reported Monday.

In a statement, AVID president Ma. Fe Perez-Agudo said the industry has been

recovering from the impact of strict lockdowns due to the pandemic and forecast better prospects ahead.

“It has been an uphill struggle for the automotive industry, more so among importers, but the recent numbers are encouraging. As our nation progresses towards achieving herd immunity, the automotive industry has proven

Chinese firm to invest in PH TRADE Undersecretary Ceferino Rodolfo said a company from Wuhan, China is coming to the country to set up its facility here.

Rodolfo, who is also the managing head of Board of Investments (BOI), said this investment shows the continued interest of Chinese investors in the Philippines.

“There’s a company from Wuhan that is going here. It’s in the area of telecommunication infrastructure,” he said during a webinar Friday.

He did not name the company as well as the amount of its investment.

He said the Wuhan firm will not only concentrate on providing telecommunication services and infrastructure in the Philippines, but making the country its hub

for its other projects in Asia. “(It’s) more of training more Filipino workers so that we could be their hub in terms of implementing their infrastructure projects in Asean and in Asia. Large part of it is because of our workers’ capabilities and also our fluency in English.

So it’s very easy for us to go around Asia and implement their projects,” Rodolfo added.

He said investment commitments from China are translating to real investments in the country.

From investment interests coming from state-owned companies in China, commerciallydriven Chinese enterprises are also coming to the Philippines.

AVID reported that all vehicle segments grew double digits in the January to June 2021 period.

Sales of passenger cars went up by 26 percent to 7,707 units this year from 6,128 units a year ago.

Light commercial vehicle

sales increased by 64 percent to 21,684 units from 13,244 units.

Commercial vehicle sales surged by 456 percent to 762 units from 137 unit sales in 2020.

Sales for June 2020 alone rose 33 percent to 4,936 units in the first semester of the year from 3,698 units sold last year.

Passenger car sales increased by 13 percent to 1,350 units,

light commercial vehicle sales grew by 44 percent to 3,556 units, while commercial vehicle sales declined by 17 percent last month, it said.

“With better prospects ahead, we will continue to give our best to ensure the complete recovery of the industry. This much, we owe the Filipino people,” Perez-Agudo added.

PH backs conclusion of WTO talks on fisheries subsidies this year HIGH-level Philippine officials have vowed to support the World Trade Organization (WTO) to conclude negotiations on fisheries subsidies agreement prior to the 12th WTO Ministerial Conference (MC12) in December this year.

In a statement Friday, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said Secretary Ramon Lopez and Agriculture Secretary William Dar attended the virtual Trade Negotiations Committee Ministeriallevel Meeting on Fisheries Subsidies on July 15, along with over 100 ministers and heads of delegation worldwide.

“The Philippines stands together with other Members who are committed to deliver an outcome in the fisheries subsidy negotiations ahead of MC12. This will only be possible if there is solid political will and diplomatic flexibility in the negotiations,” Lopez said.

In a separate WTO statement, its Director-General Ngozi OkonjoIweala said ministers and heads of delegation have shown strong commitment to conclude the 20-year negotiations on fisheries subsidies agreement.

WTO members have been discussing how to limit public subsidies incentivizing overfishing, which threatens food security, especially for low-income coastal communities and the livelihoods of poor and vulnerable fishers.

“The UN Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that one-third of global fish stocks are overfished and most of the rest is fully exploited. This is up from 10 percent in 1970 and 27 percent in 2000,” the WTO said.

According to the WTO, governments have provided USD35 billion in fisheries subsidies, twothirds of which go to commercial fishers.

On the other hand, Philippine officials said the WTO should continue providing flexibility and exemptions for poor and vulnerable artisanal fishers in developing and least developed countries.

Moreover, the Philippine delegations urged WTO members to reconsider the current draft text of the agreement pertaining to subsidies for the activity in the disputed waters.

“Issues of territorial claims or delimitation of maritime boundaries or zones are of the highest concern for the Philippines but nothing must prohibit a duly constituted Panel from hearing a case,” Dar said.

“All interventions will be considered in revising and finalizing the text of the provisions. Usually subject to more discussions and negotiations until there is consensus among the over 160 membercountries,” Lopez said in a text message. (PNA)

Sustainability, Ecological Integrity and Food Security As we face and adapt to the so-called “New Normal” especially during this time when the whole world is not totally safe from the worsening pandemic crisis of COVID-19, one of the major concerns is that of Sustainability, Ecological Integrity and Food Security not only in the country but globally.. We have witnessed first-hand how this crisis affected our economy and the entire cooperative movement across the country, yet it is innate in a cooperatives’ DNA that it is members-owned, value-based and philosophydriven and most importantly, sustainability is of utmost priority and these are the reasons why we remained resilient to withstand the test of times.

However, we cannot deny the fact that we are confronted with a much larger threat than this pandemic, that is the increasing corporate globalization especially in agricultural countries that are producing high value crops to satisfy the consumerist needs of the people in advanced countries while they cannot even satisfy the basic staples like rice and milk for the people.

Don’t you know that in the global perspective, only 1% of the world’s population control the economy? It is for this very reason that we need to unite and work together to break these traditional setups, and no less than the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals provided the guidelines for us and it is specifically stated in its theme, Transformative Cooperatives for People, Planet, Prosperity and Peace.

Based on a study, 3 out of 4 farmers are leaving the rural areas to find a job in urban centers that is highly congesting the cities. Now why do you think are our farmers doing this? The categorical answer is res ipsa loquitor (the thing speaks for itself). Farming has become economically non-viable and poverty is worsening in the rural areas as our ecological people are the victims of climate change and on-going protracted war. Very glaring is the powerlessness of the farmers to have control over the mode of production and marketing. The question here is Who controls? Who decides? Who profits?

In a world where 821 million are hungry, a cake

worth $42,000 was shared upon in a big birthday celebration in California.

Every time there is a surplus of milk production in the USA, the excess is thrown to the sea, so with the excess of wheat that is just being burned. Why? The capitalists don’t want to decrease the price of these commodities as such will lower down their rakings. I was shocked upon reading this truism in a library in a University in North America where my elder sister, a Phd holder teaches, as this, I believe, is socio-economic negativity at its worst.

Where in the world can you find farmers tilling the land not their own and using seeds and chemicals beyond their capacity to sustain.

Indeed, everyone is profiting from farming – i.e., the seed and fertilizer dealers, the compradors, the usurers -but not those who are exposed to the excruciating heat of the sun and the outpourings of rains – the poor farmers.

Learning to live with the pandemic

Philippine Press Institute

Think a minute… Thomas Edison is one of history’s greatest inventors with more than 1,000 inventions and patents to his name. It is interesting that he gives much of the credit to his mother. Edison wrote: “I did not have my mother long, but her influence on me lasted all my life. If not for her encouragement and faith in me, I would never have become an inventor. I was a careless boy, and with a mother of less wisdom and sensitivity I would have turned out badly. But her strength, sweetness, and goodness kept me on the right path. My mother was the one who made me the man that I am.”

It is so important that we tell our son how much we love and believe in him, and show him how important he is in our eyes. Ask yourself: “Will my son have many memories and feelings of how much I loved him?” Mom, and Dad, we must let our son know that we discipline him for the things he does and not for the person he is.

RUFFY MAGBANUA C A G AYA N d e O r o’s roadmap to dismantle the deadly sting of Covid-19 has leveled up anew following the ECQ declaration of the IATF, thanks but no thanks to the entry of the much infectious Delta variant from India.

For the past 18 months,

Cagay-anons have been doing the balancing act on how to live with the pandemic.

Now that we are back to square one, the panic mode is again prevalent in Cagayan de Oro. With the latest IATF notice of upgrading the city from MECQ to ECQ, City Hall was reportedly caught by surprise of the sudden annoucement, sending Mayor Oca and his team to issue calm messages amid reports of the presence of the new Covid-19 delta variant in sitio Macanhan and barangay Camaman-an.

This prompted Congressman Rufus Rodriguez, now Deputy

Speaker of the House to write Malacanang for cash aid to Cagayan de Oro residents, saying his move has no political agenda, only pure intention of mitigating the situation.

Now, granting but not exactly admitting that his wish would come true, we say thank you this early to him for covering City Hall with his benevolent gesture of concern.

With the ECQ in place, rushing to get vaccinated is the call of the hour.

Yet as City Hall confirms, vaccines are coming by trickles, not enough to supply all vax centers in the city.

Meantime, full anxiety

is not yet felt, nor heard among Cagay-anons though an eerie feeling is in the air spreading across all corners of the city.

On one hand, there is no stopping of doing business amid tensions in police checkpoints set up at every ingress of the city.

This prompted a doctorfriend to post this call: ‘Are they not afraid of delta variant now lurking in the city which is more contagious and more deadly than tha previous variants?

Let them seriously think over about this.’

Well, life is a matter of choice. (ruffy44_ph2000@ yahoo.com)

When everything goes wrong So are all of us. You wake up

to screen out the good things

on friends and family and ask

eyes. One mishap follows the other. And then the radio plays Jason Collett too: "When everything goes wrong". Accept it, stay calm, and most important, stay motivated during these tough times. Maybe easier said than done. I also had to learn it first and to pull myself up on it every time.

Of course, sometimes life’s rough patches feel like they’re going to last forever.

Keep in mind: whether you’re dealing with work-related issues, family problems, or stressful situations, very few problems last for a lifetime. So remind yourself, that things won’t be this bad forever.

When things are going wrong, it’s hard to recognize what is going right. It’s easy

things. Remind yourself that some things are going right. Purposely look for the positive, even if it is something very small.

One of the most important things to remember is that you have some control of the situation. Even if you aren’t in complete control of the situation, one thing you can always control is your attitude and reaction.

Focus on managing what is within your control.

Asking for help can be hard sometimes. I tried to avoid it as long as I could.

Big mistake. Asking for help is one of the best ways to deal with tough situations.

Tell people what you need specifically if they offer to help. Don’t be afraid to call

need emotional support or practical help. The present flood victims in Germany and its surroundings are so very thankful for this.

A lack of confidence in handling tough times can add to stress. It happened to me, when Covid-19 changed my life and my business.

One of the best things to remember is that you can handle tough situations. Even though you might feel angry, hurt, disappointed, or sad, it won’t kill you. You can get through it.

No matter how bad a situation is, it’s almost certain that something good will come out of it. At the very least, it’s likely that you will learn a life lesson. Perhaps you learn not to repeat the

JHAN TIAFAU HURST in the morning and open your and only focus on the bad them for help, whether you more. Encouragement after correction is like the sun after the rain.”

In fact, the early relationship between a boy and his mother affects his physical and psychological health for the rest of his life. A study by Harvard University showed that men who when they were babies and young boys did not have close, loving care from their mothers, had more than twice as many serious illnesses as men who did have a secure, loving relationship with their mother when they were small. A baby should be born with a sign around his neck that warns: “Caution!

Handle with Care! Love me!

1st ABB Digital Summit on July 26-29 to Showcase Smart Buildings, Energy Efficiency

IMAGINE living in a building that not only provides you safety and comfort, but helps you save on energy. It’s a building that is equipped with movement detectors, harmonious lighting, door communication, automated heating, air-conditioning, ventilation, and shutter management.

You never have to worry about having left the lights or airconditioning on because they will automatically shut off when you leave your room. You don’t have to think about wasting electricity because everything is automated to save on energy.

Global technology leader ABB is one of the leading providers of such technology.

Some of the most notable projects that the company has contributed to include the carbonneutral residential neighborhood in Maennedorf, Switzerland; the New Development Bank (NDB) in China; the Calvary Adelaide Hospital in Australia; a

residential complex in Lake Como, Italy, and more.

ABB’s smart building solutions are rooted in environmental responsibility and sustainability. It improves living conditions and, at the same time, makes greater energy efficiency possible.

Moreover, its smart building technology emphasizes on simplicity.

“Digital technologies need to be simple. It needs to be accessible to people. It needs to be seamless so your daughter or mother would be able to benefit from it, without being an engineer or scientist,” ABB Philippines Country Managing Director and Local Business Manager for

Electrification Division Olivier Coquerel said during a recent virtual press conference.

As every building and customer needs are different (the needs of NDB in China is different from the Calvary Adelaide Hospital in Australia, for example), ABB provides flexibility in the design and implementation of its building solutions.

ABB’s smart building solutions are perfect for homes, hotels, offices, industrial buildings, and healthcare facilities.

Not only can it power smart buildings, but smart cities as well.

“ABB has the technology to balance the power of a smart city that will, in turn, contribute to the comfort of its citizens and lessen noise and pollution. It will be a smart city that does not consume much electricity, has less infrastructure, and more space for green zones like parks,” Coquerel added.

The ABB technology has been tested and proven for more than a century. With more than 130 years in the industry, its expertise and know-how of building automation in electrical and mechanical building systems has been relied on by top corporations and governments all over the world.

ABB Philippines will showcase such technology in the upcoming ABB Digital Summit from July 26-29, 2021.

Mothers...

Security...

Protect me! Your heart is my home!”

The mother is also the gatekeeper between the children and their father.

She can either build the father-son relationship or she can destroy it. Boys are born with a natural desire to be like their dad. But they will not respect and follow him if their mother criticizes him and makes him look like a weak or failing father. However, if she shows respect to their dad, his sons will also. So mother, are you using your inf luence and power to love, teach and help build your son into the man God created him to be? Won’t you ask the Lord to forgive you for your mistakes and failures, and to help you b e come t he mot her He created you to b e? Just think a minute.

famers are producing rice at P13 kilo. Why? Because farming in the Philippines is so dependent on the use of chemicals. In this current agricultural system where our poor producers are entangled in the myriad of marketing layers, the only ones making profit out of the business are those middle men. Those at the bottom line became victims of these oppressive marketing systems which makes the rich even richer and the poor even poorer.

Where is equity and social justice in that? Because of this truism, many farmers have already committed suicide.

Friends, there should be a holistic transformation and it is about time for a paradigm shift that would lead towards the empowerment of our farmers and the inclusion of the marginalized sector into the mainstream of development process as so much social exclusion has taken place at the expense

of our poor countrymen including the indigenous people who are considered rich as to their vast ancestral domains however, they are also becoming victims of greed and oppression of a few elite for their own profitmotive. Through a united co op erative movement, organizations are starting to believe and realize that one way of breaking these layers and putting an end to all of these oppressions is through cooperativism.

This is supported by the study of Dr. Judith Hermanson entitled “What Difference Do Cooperatives Make?.”

Dr. Hermanson is from the International Cooperative Research Group of the U.S. Overseas Cooperative Development C ouncil which has been supported by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). In the study it shows that cooperatives in the Philippines are making a signif icant economic difference in the lives of the large majority of members and are also contributing to their overall well-being and the members are also benefiting from sociallyoriented activities of the cooperatives.

Wrong...

from page 4 behavior, or a loved one’s health issues. Don’t waste time trying to force others to change or trying to make things be different if it isn’t within your control. Investing time and energy into trying to do things you can’t will cause you to feel helpless and exhausted. Acceptance is one of the best ways to establish resilience.

Remember this: one of the things to remember when you’re facing difficulties, is that you’ve handled problems in the past. Don’t overlook past difficulties that you’ve dealt with successfully.

Remind yourself of all the past problems you’ve overcome and you’ll gain confidence in dealing with the current

issues.

Besides everything: think about yourself too. When everything seems to be going wrong, take care of yourself.

Get plenty of rest, get some exercise, eat healthy, and spend some time doing leisure activities. When you’re taking better care of yourself you’ll be better equipped to deal with your problems.

Everything is temporary, even everything which goes wrong. Happiness is a result of your approach to life, not what happens to you.

Sometimes we need to take one step, then another.

Even if they're just baby steps, keep moving. Rather than focusing on the worst case, think instead of what else is possible. Look for the lesson. Challenging situations can often teach us what we have left to learn. Keep a positive attitude by remaining focused on solutions, skills, and strengths.Start small.

Spend time with the people who support you.

Maybe, together with the light at the end of the tunnel: choose one big goal to work on in order to make a lasting change.

"If anything can go wrong, it will..." This tongue-incheek principle, known as Murphy's Law, is cited by economists, sports teams,

Carabao... from page 2

The former agriculture chief launched a “fun game” through his Facebook page in May to search for the biggest carabao/bull in Mindanao in line with the celebration of Farmer’s Month.

A report from the S ar ang an i In for m at i on Office said Tamba’s son Lorenzo sent photos of his father’s massive carabao with some grandchildren on top and “it won the contest hands down.”

Tamba said he bought the young bull for PHP30,000 in 2005 when it was only three-and-a-half years old from a farmer in Barangay Lebe, Kiamba town.

He took care of the carabao well and it eventually became sturdy, making other farmers want to buy it at a higher price but were all thumbed down.

Piñol had promised to give the winner of the fun contest some 60 heads of “Manok Pinoy” as prize and came to Maitum to deliver them.

He turned over to the Tamba family 50 female and 10 male free-range chickens, all two-and-a-half months old, which were bred at his farm in Kidapawan City, North Cotabato. “ This will help them start their own backyard chicken-raising program,” he said in the video.

Piñol, who popularized the “Manok Pinoy”, said the chicken is a crossbreed of a female from America and a locally bred male.

He advised the family to allow the chickens to acclimatize with the area before releasing them to their surroundings.

They can place them in a space covered by nets, with ample feed and water, he said. “ This is my personal prize for him (Tamba). I’m also here to show that we in the government keep our promise,” Piñol said.

solar power plant of the Cagayan Power and Electric Company (Cepalco) in Barangay Indahag here, in 2004.

The facility was then the largest on-grid solar power farm in the whole of Southeast Asia.

The venture had its ups and downs when it began its operations as many thought that Greenergy Solar was in for an uphill journey when it branded itself as the company that would be “building the clean energy future of Mindanao and the Philippines”.

To date, the company has 24 engineers who serve customers from installation and the maintenance of the solar power systems; and 21 full-time salespeople who also serve as educators of solar energy as the renewable energy of choice.

After four years of providing solar solutions to homes, farms, and other clients who want clean, efficient, and affordable power sources, Greenergy Solar has installed 10,000 solar panels in 108 houses.

It has installed 5,737 units of solar street lights illuminating 287 kilometers of streets with clean power.

Greenergy Solar has also watered farms, supplying a total of 234 horsepower of installed solar water pumps, irrigating a total of 480 hectares of land.

As a supplier of efficient power sources, Greenergy Solar claims to have accumulated PHP1.3 billion of savings in terms of power expenditure.

As its contribution to climate action, Greenergy Solar estimates 249,000 metric tons of avoided carbon emissions.

Greenergy Solar now positions itself as the first commercial rooftop service provider in Mindanao.

Today, it is the largest and most trusted solar brand in the region. Its activities commenced in 2010, initially in partnership with SharpSolar of Japan.

In 2017, the company thought of completing the solar power supply loop by installing stand-alone and hybrid rooftop solar power systems.

The hybrid solar power solution allows adopters to sell power to Cepalco through a system called net metering.

The parent company of Greenergy Solar is Greenergy Development Corporation, a long-time proponent of renewable energy in the country fully owned and managed by Mindanaoans with backgrounds in power generation, transmission, distribution, climate change, and renewable energy.

Greenergy is actively building the clean energy future of Mindanao and the Philippines. (PNA)

It added that non-residents of Davao Region will be required to comply with a negative virus test result taken within 72 hours in addition to the requirements of resort booking confirmation and StaySafe.ph mobile application, the official contact tracing digital app of the Philippine government.

It said that RT-PCR test results shall be submitted electronically by the tourists immediately upon receipt of results to the management of the resort not earlier than 72 hours upon entry into the region. Resort management will immediately submit the same upon receipt to the D OH-Davao Op eration Center for verification, and a certification will be provided once validated.

The DOH-Davao will be tasked to endorse to police authorities a list of verified RT-PCR test results within 24 hours from verification, and will provide a list of accredited laboratories and sample of RT-PCR test results for guidance and reference of personnel manning the checkpoints.

Duterte said she is not discounting the possibility that the Delta variant may have already found its way to the city since not all specimens from the city are being sent for genome sequencing at the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine.

She stressed the consistent observance of minimum public health standards such as wearing of face mask, distancing and hand washing, as well as vaccination against COVID-19 will work against the spread of the highly infectious Delta variant in the community, lowering the risk of hospitalization.

Last month, the DOHDavao confirmed that two out of three cases of Alpha variant or B.1.1.7, first detected in the UK, and five out of 11 cases of Beta variant or B.1.351 in the region were detected in Davao City.

As of July 18, DOH-Davao reported 186 new cases of COVID-19 in Davao City, bringing the total to 28,499 with 2,450 active cases, 25,081 recoveries and 968 deaths.

DOH Normin expects regular vax delivery CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY —As the vaccination rollout in northern Mindanao continues, the fear of vaccine shortage also haunts the local government units (LGUs).

To allay the LGUs’ fears, the Department of Health (DOH)-10 announced that the region is expecting more vaccines delivery in July.

“Vaccine Czar Secretary Carlito Galvez told us in one of his TV shows that we will have a regular supply of vaccines for the next several weeks or months,” DOH-10 Regional Director Dr. Jose Llacuna, Jr. said.

The vaccine czar's pronouncement was hailed by the health executive, who said this is good news as the region pushes its vaccine rollout.

Llacuna said the influx of vaccines can meet the public's growing need for their jabs.

In fact, he said, more vaccines started to arrive last July 12 with 10,000 EXTRA-JUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF THE ESTATE OF THE DECEASED CIRILO YASAY,MARINA YASAY,CARIDAD YASAY,CONCOLACION YASAY, AND JOSEFINA YASAY KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENT: That the late CIRILO YASAY,MARINA YASAY,CARIDAD YASAY,CONCOLACION YASAY, AND JOSEFINA YASAY, who died on 1-10-1940, 12-15-1979, 8-1-1979, 11-4-1944, and 10-4-1944, in Opol, Misamis Oriental without leaving any last will and testament; that the deceased at the time of their death are the registered owners/ claimant of a parcel of land with Decree No. 738703 situated in Opol, Misamis Oriental, containing an area of Five Thousand One Hundred and Seventy-Two (5,172) square meters more or less and has been the subject of an EXTRAJUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF THE ESTATE OF THE DECEASED CIRILO YASAY,MARINA YASAY,CARIDAD YASAY,CONCOLACION YASAY, AND JOSEFINA YASAY, filed by the heirs of CIRILO YASAY,MARINA YASAY,CARIDAD YASAY,CONCOLACION YASAY, AND JOSEFINA YASAY, per DOC #259; PAGE #52; BOOK #216; Series of 2020 under the Notarial Registry of ATTY.

Likewise, on 13 July, 1,500 doses of Sputnik V arrived intended for those who are due for the second dose.

On the same day, some 15,000 doses of Sputnik V and 6,000 doses of AstraZeneca also arrived at the Laguindingan Airport.

“We've already had vaccines arrival for two days in a row. With this trend, we expect a weekly supply of it. But as to the date of arrival and type of vaccine, we are still dependent on the schedule and what is provided to us [Region 10] by the national government,” Dr. David Mendoza, DOH-10 Local Health Support Division REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES CITY OF CAGAYAN DE ORO

chief said.

Mendoza further said 70,400 AstraZeneca doses will be arriving later today, July 15, at the airport.

Latest DOH-10 data showed that 103.08 percent of the target A1 category received their first dose but only 73.26 percent are fully vaccinated; the A2 category received 34.13 percent of their first jab and only 9.69 percent completed the two doses. For the A3 group, the region had inoculated 32.99 percent for the first dose and 8.91 percent of them completed the vaccination.

Mendoza said despite a growing proportion of the Normin population getting immunized, herd immunity has a long way to go until it is fully achieved. The Department of Health is now urging everyone to get vaccinated. (JAKA/PIA-10)
