Briefly Halal exports PRESIDENT Benigno S. C. Aquino III has signed into law a consolidated measure on halal exports, amid opposition by a number of institutions led by Muslim Filipinos. In a statement yesterday, the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) called on Mr. Aquino to veto the proposed Philippine Halal Export Development and Promotion Act of 2015. But Mr. Aquino had signed the measure three days earlier. “It appears that the message to the ordinary Muslim Filipinos is that the government is only concerned in the integrity of Halal for its export value rather than the protection of the well-being and interests of domestic Muslim consumers, thereby putting the interests of ordinary Muslim Filipino below that of foreign Muslims,” the NCMF statement read.

Live Your List Think a minute…If you made a list of your most important priorities, all the people and things that mean the most to you, what would be on your list? You would probably have things like your family, job, schooling, friends and fun. Now look at your life. Are you living your list? How are you spending most of your time? Do you really practice your priorities? Someone said: “If we don’t actually practice our priorities, then they’re not really our priorities.” Our actions and lifestyle speak much louder than our words. If we don’t live it, we don’t believe it. How we spend our time shows what we love and care about. We almost always find the time to do the things we really want to. Unfortunately, our jobs, personal hobbies and pleasures can become more important to us than they should. Soon these pleasures and our profession can replace our most important priorities. They end up controlling how we live and what we do in our free time during the evenings and weekends. Maybe you realize today that you’re not really living your list. You’re not spending most of your time

A Sculptor’s Lament The largesse of the soul is sometimes met with indifference and injustice. It m a y r e s o n a t e w i t h the sound of gold coins clinking on the broken pavements of an informal settler’s community; and even with a presumptive purity of expression in b estowing, I lament at how my expressions fare with a world-that-knowsno-melodies, or perhaps, melodies-that-know-nolisteners. As a sculptor, this is my sorrow. God knows what I told him in the inner chamber and I await his answer. A few days ago, I penned a poem entitled, “Sculptor’s Dilemma”: These portrait busts I make In finicky fashion: A small big FilipinoAmerican,
A hospital executive, An erstwhile navy with two flags (Among others) And—a h, t he capture d splendor— After the transformation You are oblivious about: Examining relentlessly The forthright and the furtive Speeches when you are alone, Then testing whether or not T he ha l f - s m i l e wel l articulates The persona; After the exacting scheme Of adding and subtracting, Adding and subtracting That lasts three months each Becomes a historic quest for perfection, The iner t cl ay t hen undergoes kiln-fire Towards immortality.
Alack!—the monuments I build To become a well-meant remembrance: Are t he y now i n you r possession And I denied the right Of owning my signature? It is clear the priceless Works of art I create As mementos of endearment Stay forever separate For I must part With my oeuvres; Disavowed I can but offer For connoisseurs to examine These portraits I cannot claim --But ah, the pity, the shame— To assert but never To hold the law on! Seemingly content, I create I build, I enjoy to build away The gifts they say
lucell larawan I cannot, do not own. (The author is a paintersculptor blessed with two finalist awards in Metrobank Art and Design Excellence. He presented his works in three solo exhibits in reputed galleries and has been selected as general member of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts-National Committee on Visual Arts.)
Our Conflicting Life? We are in conflict with o u r s e l v e s m a ny t i m e s during life. Our future gives cause for concern; the past hold up captured, therefore we miss the future. The grief and sorrow asked the hope, “How are you?” The hope answered, “ I am a little bit low and sad today!” The sorrow replied sarcastic, “I hope so!” Nobody want really to know what might happen after reaching the retirement age. Sure, if we can observe our neighbors and all other people in our surroundings, we really don’t like to know it. If we treat ourselves with care, our real age will not be shown. I don’t make any secret about celebrating my 63th birthday sometime this year. I enjoy. I am proud to reach this age with God’s help.
It s e e m s t h at t h e respectable treatment of our beloved seniors around us are disappearing into the past and are forgotten by the younger generation. Praising the elderly nowadays means to attest them impudent and imperishable youthfullness. I am sure, with His help many seniors are still strong, still indefatigable, still a phenomenon, still intellectual and still spiritual on top! L et’s not forget our respect, when sometimes just being artificial or affected stammering, that “our old lady” or “our old gentleman” hasn’t become senile yet. O n o u r w ay t o a n honorable and respectful age we should try to fulfill some of our greatest longings in life. During the last decades, I met many people around the whole globe. Unbelievable,
I found out, no matter where in this world, the c on f l i c t i ng att itu d e i s everywhere. “It’s an absolute certainty, that’s doubts are the main certainty!” stressed already the German author, philosopher and dramatist Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956). Please allow me, once in a while being able to say NO. Please allow me deleting inferior and defeatist feelings. Please allow me admitting, that I can’t do everything during a single day. Please allow me being no longer afraid about other people and their spiteful comments about me. Please allow me accepting my silence. Please accept me being terrible tired from time to time. Please allow me being excused even without having an intelligent reply. Please allow me being carried by salvation and bliss.

A test case for Digong on drugs Jhan Tiafau Hurst on your most important priorities in life. You’re not spending enough time on your marriage and children, other people, as well as your own personal character growth. Most importantly, you’re not spending enough time on the most important person and priority in life: your own Creator Who has a great plan for your life. But you can start changing that today by asking Jesus Christ to forgive you for not putting Him first in your life. Jesus promises that if you will put Him first in every relationship and area of your life, He will give you everything you need for the successful, satisfying life He created you to enjoy. So it’s actually quite simple: Jesus IS your list. Just Think a Minute…
LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… Help, LORD, for no one is faithful anymore; those who are loyal have vanished from the human race…” (Psalm 12:1, the Holy Bible). -ooo A N T I - D R U G C RU Z A D E R’ S H O U S E RAIDED IN BATANGAS: It would seem that this early, those who heed the call of incoming President Rodrigo Duterte for a fierce fight against illegal drugs and drug syndicates during his term are being told that it would be dangerous to join Duterte in that fight. T h i s i s w h at A l l a n Fajardo, a businessman from Tanauan City, Batangas, found out after his house in the city, where he was handpicked by its re-elected chief executive, Mayor Tony Halili, to be the head of the Mayor’s Anti Crime Group, was raided in the early morning of May 05, 2016, by bonnet-hooded armed men who introduced
themselves as Batangas policemen. According to reports received by “ Tambalang Batas at Somintac”, a radio program which goes on air Mondays to Fridays, at 6 a.m., at the Iglesia Ni Cristo-owned Radyo Agila (DZEC 1062 kHz), during its airing last Tuesday, May 24, 2016, Fajardo is in the forefront of the “shame campaign” of Halili against drug lords or drug dealers in Batangas, and he apparently has incurred the ire of powerful personalities. -ooo 100 PNP OFFICERS AND MEN LED BATANGAS R AID? A voice clip of Fajardo was aired twice in our program last Tuesday, as per the joint decision of my partner in the program, Mr. Vic Somintac, the prized Malacanang reporter of DZEC, and mys elf. We thought that it would be better if we allowed the voice clip to be heard by
our listeners. In sum, here was what Fajardo said: his house was raided by about 100 policemen. The raiders were wearing bonnets that hid their faces, something that was unusual. He was dumbfounded by the raid because he had no criminal record. Then, he was never engaged in crime, and is in fact part of the crimebusting team of Mayor Halili. The raid was carried out with apparent excessive force. The door of his house was wrecked by the raiders, and his firearms, though fully licensed, were all confiscated. Up to now, however, Fajardo has not received any summons or any subpoena yet, which may indicate that he had not been charged, after all. -ooo A T E ST C A SE F OR DIG ONG ON DRU G S : S omintac and I were also told that Fajardo’s

ARMM celebrates farmers, fisherfolks’ Month M A R AW I C I T Y - Recognition events across the Autonomous Region i n Mu s l i m M i n d a n a o (ARMM) highlighted this year’s celebration of Farmers and Fisherfolks’ Month as well as the 25th Devolution Anniversary of the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF-ARMM). Alexander Alonto, DAFARMM secretary, said the celebration was aimed at recognizing and honoring farmers and fisherfolks for their valuable contribution to the economy. ARMM’s economic output is anchored on resourcebased activities such as agriculture, aquaculture, fishery and forestry. These comprise roughly two-thirds of the region’s gross regional domestic product. Eighteen rice producers in ARMM were recognized as Agri-Pinoy Rice Achievers for 2015. The award is given to farmers with the highest rice production during the year and is largely based on a selection process conducted
by the Regional Agriculture and Fisheries Council. Among the achievers was Rahib Mamaluba, 36, a farming technician in Mamasapano, Maguindanao who helps farmers improve rice production by giving t hem t raining on land preparation and planting techniques, among others. Mamaluba received a unit of rice transplanter that makes crop planting easier. For example, two hectares of farm could be planted in one day with help from two farmers. In traditional planting, 20 farmers are needed to cover a two-hectare land. “Masela ged e pakadtabang na niyaba ka malemu endu malangkas e kapegkumpay nami (This helps a lot because it makes planting easier and faster),” Mamaluba said. Distribution of farming inputs, machineries and fishing paraphernalia worth P14.05 million to pre-identified farmers and fisherfolks was also part of ARMM/PAGE 10

LOBE TELECOM, Inc. along with the Information and C ommunications Te c h n o l o g y O f f i c e o f t h e Department of Science and Technology (DoST), announced that it will adopt the TV white space frequency for broadband use in the country. The company said that the initiative is expected to provide an alternative wireless network that will provide data connectivity in far flung areas in the Visayas and Mindanao.
As of the moment, Globe is pilottesting the use of the frequency for broadband service in several areas, including Bohol and Cebu. According to the telecommunications group, the TV white space frequency will maximize available spectrum given rapid increases in data consumption amid growing smartphone penetration. “To help improve the internet experience of our customers, Globe is working on enhancing cell site density of our network, a prerequisite in providing additional bandwidth
capacity amid exponential growth in data use,” Globe Senior VicePresident for Network Technologies Strategy Emmanuel Estrada said in a statement released on Monday. “However, building a cell site has proven to be a major challenge for us and we can’t build cell sites as fast as we want to. We hope that making use of available spectrum would enhance bandwidth capacities and allow our network to transmit enormous amount of data at faster speeds,” added Mr. Estrada. He a l s o n o t e d t h at t h e
construction of a single cell site involves about 25 permits with at least 8 months lead time. Mr. Estrada also emphasized that the TV white space technology would help telecommunication p rov i d e r s t o e a s i l y d e p l oy broadband facilities in rural areas since its signals can travel over water and through thick foliage and can deliver up to 10 megabits per second of data throughput at a maximum range of 10 kilometers. In addition, DoST Undersecretary Louis Casambre
said there is a need to enhance internet service in the provinces, stressing that the use of the TV white space for broadband would provide data connectivity among lo cal government units and national agencies, hospitals and health centers as well as among educational institutions in rural areas. As of today, only the United States has undertaken commercial deployment of the TV white space technology while many other countries are holding trials.
Isuzu April sales near March record levels Century Pacific debuts on the ISUZU PHILIPPINES Corp. (IPC) said it followed its record-setting March sales with an April tally nearly as large, selling 2,219 units, up 54% from a year earlier. The April total was only 218 units short of the 2,437 March score, the company said, citing joint data from the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines, Inc. (CAMPI) and the Truck Manufacturers Association (TMA). “Isuzu Philippines is pleasantly surprised to find
out how close our sales in April came close to those we have made in March, especially considering that it took the company nearly two decades to achieve that record,” said IPC President Hajime Koso in statement sent to journalists. Sales in the first four months of the year totaled 8,798 units, up 37.5% from a year earlier. The mu-X sport utility vehicle was the top seller in April at 983 units, followed by the Crosswind at 479
units. The N-Series lightduty truck accounted for 355 units in sales, and the D-MAX pickup 338 units. Various models of commercial truck and bus made up the remaining 64 units sold for April. “The result places us firmly on track to meet our year-end target, and indicates an upward trend not only for Isuzu, but also for the entire Philippine automotive industry,” Mr. Koso said in the same statement.

MSCI Philippine Small Cap Index CENTURY Pacific Food, Inc (CNPF), the Philippines’ largest canned food company, is set to make its debut on the MSCI Philippine Small Cap Index, effective May 31, 2016. It will be joining heavyweights Manila Water, First Gen, Doubledragon, and D&L Industries, on the closely tracked index. “We are excited about the prospect of attracting more investors to our story,” said Century Pacific CFO Oscar A. Pobre.
CNPF’s recent inclusion was a result of a semi-annual review conducted by MSCI, the leading provider of stock market indices and investment decision tools to clients worldwide. Other new additions to the Philippine small-cap index include gaming resort operator Bloomberry and technology firm Xurpas. Pobre added, “The domestic economy continues to provide growth opportunities for a company like ours and we look forward to growing with our shareholders,
as we execute on our business plans and strategies.” Century Pacific recently reported net income of P636 million for the first three months of the year, up 45 percent from one year-ago. The company behind household names Century Tuna and Argetina Corned Beef attributed the good performance to strong local demand for its branded products, improved sales distribution and its well-executed marketing campaigns.

Court sends fraudulent SSS claimant to jail for faking tuberculosis The Quezon City Regional Tr ial C our t (RTC) has sentenced a Social Security System (SSS) claimant to imprisonment of about seven years and eight months up to ten years and nine months for attempting to defraud SSS of disability benefits for pulmonary tuberculosis using spurious documents. SSS Chief Legal Counsel and Senior Vice President for Legal Services Division Voltaire P. Agas said that Julieta S. Panganiban was convicted for two criminal cases – one for false statement or misrepresentation when she submitted fake documents, and another for receipt of the P42,953.99 disability benefit even if she wasn’t qualified. “ T h e c ou r t ord e re d Panganiban to serve a jail term one year, eight months and 21 days as minimum to four years, nine months and 10 days as maximum and to pay a fine of P5,000 for violation of Section 28 (a) of the Social Security Law. She would also serve another jail
term of six years and one day and pay a fine of P5,000 for violation of Section 28 (b),” Agas said. According to the joint decision by Judge Madonna C. Echiverri of RTC Branch 81, the medical certificate signed by a certain Dr. James Bernard Wong and the X-ray report issued by St. Joseph Diagnostic Center submitted by Panganiban did not come from any legitimate doctor or diagnostic center. The SSS Medical Program Department discovered the fraudulent claim when it conducted an audit of medical benefits filed with the pension fund. Panganiban’s case was immediately referred to the SSS Anti-Fraud Department for proper investigation. Panganiban admitted during the trial that the medical certificate and other documents she submitted to SSS were from a certain “Rocky.” The entries in her disability claim application were a ls o prep are d by “Rocky,” who afterwards sss/PAGE 9

criminal complaints against the officials of shuttered LBC Development Bank, Inc. (LBC Bank). In a statement, the PDIC said several high officials were accused of violating the PDIC Charter or Republic Act No. 3591 by conducting business in an “unsafe and uns ound manner” t hat caused the bank to lose at least P1.8 billion. Named as respondents were LBC Bank’s former directors Santiago G. Araneta, Juan Carlos G. A r a n e t a , Fe r n a n d o G . Araneta, Carlos G. Araneta, and Joseph Jeffrey Rodriguez. Also impleaded were former Chairman, President and CEO Ma. Eliza G. Berenguer, former Head of the Treasury Ofelia F. Cuevas, former Finance Head Apolonia L. Ilio, and former Cashier Arlan T. Jurado.
The case arose after the officials positioned the bank to be an active player in the remittance business through a service agreement with LBC Express, a company owned by the bank’s stockholders. Under the agreement, LBC Bank serves as the distribution agent of LBC Express, while the latter was responsible for paying service fees for every transaction handled by the bank. The complaint stated that the concurrent LBC Express owners “took advantage” of their LBC Bank positions by neglecting to require the remittance firm to pay the services fees due to the bank. They were also accused of failing to investigate the cause of LBC Express’ nonpayment of its dues, and failing to impose measures to protect the bank by
terminating the ser vice agreement or imposing sanctions on the remittance firm. Inste ad, t he s er v ice agreement was renewed repeatedly from 2005 to 2011. The 20-unit thrift bank was ordered closed by the Monetar y B oard of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas on Sept. 9, 2011 and placed under PDIC receivership. The closure affected 33,191 accounts with total estimated deposits of P5.95 billion, P2.97 billion of which was insured by the PDIC. The PDIC had previously filed criminal complaints against the bank’s officials for estafa, syndicated estafa and falsification of commercial documents. The officials have been previously accused of misappropriating the bank’s funds.

gave her instructions on how to proceed with her SSS application. Prior to filing the fraudulent claim, Panganiban applied for a disability benefit on the basis of her asthma which was denied by SSS. After receiving SSS’ denial of her claim, she resorted to accepting the offer made by “Rocky.” The court noted that even if Panganiban acted in good faith when she accepted the offer of “Rocky,” it is not a
valid defense for escaping criminal responsibility. In cases such as this, the only inquiry is whether the law has been breached, the decision said. “Panganib an c annot claim that she only accepted Rocky’s offer in good faith, thinking that that he only wanted to help facilitate her application. Her full knowledge and involvement in submitting the falsified documents and making untruthful statements were enough for the court to find her guilty,” Agas said. Under the law, the SSS can
only file a complaint against the filer or the individual who signed the application forms and directly submitted the claims with SSS. Those who have been victimized by persons such as “Rocky” can file a separate case against these fixers. “We strong ly advis e members not to accept any help from people they don’t know personally. If they need assistance with their benefit claims, they can always approach any of our employees or visit the nearest SSS branch. Engaging the services of fixers may lead
to granting of their claims which would result in stiffer penalties once discovered by SSS,” said Agas. At present, Panganiban has not appealed the decision of the lower court and has already started serving her sentence. Atty. Franco E. Bustamante, the SSS lawyer handling the Panganiban case, scored a court conviction last year against Orlando P. Tabadero, who filed a fraudulent disability claim for pulmonary tuberculosis allegedly also with the help of a man named “Rocky.”

The summit dwelled on the theme “Enhancing C ompetitiveness of the Philippine Broiler Industry Towards Achieving Food Security.” Rodriguez said the broiler industry is among the fast growing sub-sector in agriculture which showed slower growth in the past years. He also expressed confidence that the broiler sub-sector can even be a prime driver for economic growth in the country. “ To g e t h e r w i t h t h e government, we can help attain food security,” said Rodriguez. The broiler sector is seeing the Asean economic integration not as a threat, but an opportunity, as well. “We are l o o k i ng at competition, and it [Asean food implementation] opens up opportunities rather than a threat,” Rodriguez added. And, this is where the use of advance technology comes into play, he said. The summit also tackled how climate change would affect the environment and the poultr y industr y in particular. Rodriguez said again the situation requires the use of technology, although he submits that it is not enough.
“We ne e d t he r i g ht people,” he added. “We need the Department of Education to upgrade the education system of the country, so that, together with the private sector, we can develop the right skills and the needed manpower to support and implement the right technology for our investments.” Rodriguez also said that the broiler sub-sector has become more and more feasible, even as the banking sector is helping cope with their need for technology. “After many years, the costs of investment have gone down. But, it still takes us five to six years to have a return on our investments for solar energy, for example,” Rodriguez said. Rodriguez said technology is helping t hem ar rest pestilence, although the bottom line is cleanliness and good house-keeping. “We have been able to address current situation and afford the good promise of return on our nvestments,” Rodriguez said. Dr. Maarten de Gussem, an internationally-renowned broiler management expert and author of the book “Broiler Signals: A Practical Guide to Broiler Focused Management” was among the resource speakers during the summit.
