Oro rafting outfitters rush safety proposals CAGAYAN de Oro City–– Local rafting operators here rushed a set of safety measures to prevent a tragic repeat of last Friday’s boating accident that caused the death of a 26-year-old nurse from Bohol.

Mayor Oscar Moreno said local outfitters belonging to the Oro Association of Rafters managed to squeeze in their recommendation just before he made up his mind to suspend all whitewater rafting and kayaking tours along Cagayan de Oro River.

“We opted not to suspend the whitewater rafting and kayaking operations because we will study the set of recommendations,” Moreno said.

Meanwhile, the family of Aizza Calipusan Balbin brought her ashes back to her hometown in Loboc, Bohol Monday afternoon.

Balbin, a home-based nurse in Loboc town, came to Cagayan de Oro last Friday to experience the whitewater rafting adventure which Cagayan de Oro is See safety, page 11

CDO’s P 3.8B proposed budget shall pass the ‘eye of the needle’

By CRIS DIAZ Executive Editor

CAGAYAN de Oro City Mayor Oscar Moreno has proposed a P3.8 billion budget for the year 2015 in a bid to implement more projects to deodorize an administra-

tion that smells of alleged questionable transactions, City Hall officials said on Monday.

Moreno said that he would push for the approval of the proposed P 3.8 billion budget so that his administration could implement

projects that would benefit the city’s “poor.”

Opposition Councilor Prexy Elipe, who chairs the city council’s powerful finance committee, said he would wait the submission of the proposed 2015 budget.

Elipe, however, cau-

tioned Moreno on the proposed budget, saying the figures should be realistic as against the city’s revenue collection in 2014.

The City Mayor could submit a budget proposal of his whims provided that See needle, page 11

MindaViews LeBron dethroned

By H. Marcos C. Mordeno

MALAYBALAY City–– LeBron James had tried to rally the Miami Heat from a 3-1 deficit in the NBA Finals by saying they can remake history in Game 5 today. He knew it was a tall order.

No team has recovered from such disadvantage ever since the league started in 1950. As the team’s leader, however, it’s his duty to lift his teammates’ spirits after the San Antonio Spurs humiliated them twice in a row in their home court.

The Heat started the first quarter of Game 5, which turned out to be their last stand, with a 22-6 run. At that stage, it looked like a Game 6 was in the offing. But the Spurs responded with a 50-20 run from which the Heat would never recover.

Arguably, it was that 30-point differential See LEBRON, page 11

Moreno creates body for safe tourism adventures

C

AGAYAN de Oro City Mayor Oscar Moreno has created a body to look into the safety of all tourism adventures in the city, not just whitewater rafting.

Moreno said the new group will be chaired by former Department of Tourism (DOT) 10 director Dorothy Pabayo and composed of experts in the fields of whitewater rafting, river trekking, kayaking, jet skiing, spelunking, canyoneering, ziplining, among others.

The move came after the death of Boholano tourist Aizza Mae Balbin, 26, who was yanked into a water hole full of debris during a whitewater cruise last Friday.

During a press conference Monday, June 16, Moreno emphasized that reviewing the safety measures of the whitewater rafting and related ventures must be in the form of selfregulation among operators since they themselves know the technicalities of the adventure.

“There must be a trust built between the government and the operators because they are the experts and they know better about the adventure that they offer than we do. It’s like the relationship between the government and medical practitioners. We in the government ensure that people don’t get sick. To do

that, we rely on doctors,” Moreno said.

With this, services offered by Kagay Journey White Water Rafting and Kayaking and other firms are expected to continue in full swing.

While Balbin’s body was fished out of the water, tourists still went out in droves to patronize the whitewater cruise, which Cagayan de Oro has been known for since 1995.

The incident last Friday marked the first time a death has occurred at the Cagayan river rapids since the adventure was offered 20 years ago.

Balbin’s body was cremated yesterday morning here and the family brought the remains home – everything was shouldered by the city government.

The grim incident also coincided with the visit of International Rafting Federation ex-officio director Mark Joffe, who was looking into the Cagayan river rapids scene for an international tournament to be held here this November.

Joffe graced the press conference yesterday and told Moreno that the tournament is still on despite what happened. (C. Ordonez)

Mayor refuses to issue biz permit to mining firm CLAVER, Surigao del Norte–– Until today the municipal government of Claver in Surigao del Norte has not issued a business permit to a mining firm because the company failed to settle its business tax.

Claver Mayor Eddie P. Gokiangkee said the Taganito Mining Corporation has an NOTICE NOTICE is hereby given that the intestate of estate of the late FORTUNATO ACIDO, consisting a parcel of land known as Lot. no.

outstanding balance of almost half a billion pesos.

Based on the document obtained by MindaNews June last year, the company already had an outstanding balance tax of P371.2 million.

Gokiangkee said the taxes due since 2001 have now ballooned to more than P400 million.

In a letter addressed to Engr. Jose B. Anievas, vice

president for operation of TMC, the municipal government asked the mining firm to pay their taxes “the soonest time possible to avoid any inconvenience that may occur as a result of distraint or seizure of your property.”

The mayor said they are now contemplating to file charges against TMC to force it to stop operations.

The local government is

Publication Notice R.A. 10172

bent on collecting taxes from all business establishments in Claver, saying it is the lifeblood of the local government.

MindaNews has been seeking TMC management’s comment on the since last year but no to avail. TMC community relations officer Cecile Bayas told MindaNews last week that she will arrange an appointment with management but has no updates as

of press time.

Gokiangkee said he admired the small businessmen in town for paying their taxes and expressed dismay over TMC even as the mining firm continue to destroy the mountains and polluting the water bodies.

“Even the small stores pay their taxes, yet this mining firm that has destroyed the environment refused to pay,”

Publication Notice R.A. 10172

he lamented.

TMC is currently mining nickel ore for shipment to Japan.

Earlier this year, the Platinum Group Metals Corporation (PGMC) also failed to get its business permit in Claver, Gokiangkee said. The company has an outstanding balance of P57 million, but PGMC initially paid P7 million last March and promised to pay the rest of its unpaid business tax later this year.

Taoid Heritage Program for NorMin kicks off June 16 in MisOcc

By RUTCHIE CABAHUG-AGUHOB

JIMENEZ, Misamis Occidental – The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) will launch the Taoid Heritage Program (Taoid) in northern Mindanao, from June 16-20, this year, by a caravan that starts in this province.

A heritage conservation program, “Taoid,” is derived from the Ilocano word “mana” meaning “inheritance” in English and “kabilin” or “solundon” in Cebuano. It is also a homonym for “tawid,” the Filipino word and “tabok,” the Cebuano word for “to cross,” respectively.

It has been adopted by NCCA as official name of this annual year-long program that hopes to assist local communities across the country to discover, document, and disseminate their cultural heritage treasures and help cross the Filipino heritage for generations to come.

With this year’s theme, “Pamanang Pinoy: Taoid 2014,” the program aims to give us the glimpse of

the legacies of the past and how it remains to shape the present and the future, Rene S. Napenas, Head, NCCA Public Affairs and Information Office, said.

Particularly in Misamis Occidental, the caravan starts on June 16 with a visit to a ‘Kamil’ tree in Jimenez, a local tree which bears different kinds of fruits and considered sacred by the locals and an unnamed old wooden bridge built in town for pedestrians.

Also included in the Jimenez itinerary are the Bacaro Building, the oldest printing press, open since 1938 that printed emergency money during World War II, Jimenez Statue, House of the late Senator Jose Ozamiz, the Palilan River, and the House of

Suman in Clarin town.

Meanwhile, the Taoid program will be launched at the St. John, the Baptist, Church also in Jimenez, on June 17, after the celebration of a Eucharistic Mass and a lecture on the Heritage Law, round table discussions and presentations of the NCCA Committees on Plans and Thrusts, Archives, Art Galleries, Historical Research, Libraries and Information Services, Monuments and Sites and Museums.

Other areas in the region where the Taoid program will be launched are Iligan City, Lanao del Norte, June 18, Jasaan, Misamis Oriental, June 19 and Cagayan de Oro City, June 20, Napenas added.

Malacanang is saying these students need not worry because the Aquino government through the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) is doing something about this. The phrase “doing something about this” is the key to understanding the fact that, at this point, the Aquino government has not really done anything yet to help the students.

One writer put it: “When people are free to do as they want, they usually copy each other.”

Yet every successful person becomes successful because he or she discovered and developed their own special abilities. As one guy said: “One of the hardest things about climbing the ladder of success is getting through the crowd of copies at the bottom.”

The only thing it has clearly done now is to direct the Commission to do something, but even the CHED has not done anything yet.

She said that the Chinese are very much aware that about 95% percent, more or less, of Filipinos are of Chinese descent or have Chinese blood in them so that Filipinos will never really put up any fight against them, because they are our “compatriots” anyway. Then, our top government officials and wealthy businessmen are all Chinese, too.

So, the Chinese will never really be considered as “invading” and “occupying” the Philippines, should they do so in the near future, because through their own citizens who have come here and made good fortune from the Philippines, such

Jesus Christ can show you all of your unique talents and strengths, as well as help you to develop and maximize them. He loves you the way you are, but He loves you too much to leave you that way. But first you have to ask Him to forgive and free you from your past wrongs. Then everyday you must choose to live and do things His way. Only Jesus can give you the inner security and confidence to become the true original you are.

Export prospects bright for banana and mango T

he Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI) during the weekend said that with the ongoing negotiations for the export of Philippine banana to US territories such as Guam, Northern Mariana Islands and Hawaii, export prospects for locally grown bananas look bright.

BPI Director Clarito Barron in a news release said export of bananas from Mindanao to the US “will definitely lead to an increase in the country’s revenue and, therefore, boost our banana industry.”

The initial commercial export of Philippine bananas to Continental US was shipped to San Diego, California on August 20, 2013. A total of 486 cartons (6.561 MT) of highland Cavendish Dole Sweet bananas sourced from Bukidnon was sent to the US. According to Barron, through the BPI’s Plant Quarantine Services (PQS), the creation of market opportunities through bilateral relations with importing and exporting countries and conduct of pest risk analyses has been successfully facilitated.

The BPI director meanwhile added that being declared as Freedom Area for Mango Pulp and Seed Weevil by the US government through the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) on February 8, 2013 is indeed a good

development, as this would give the Philippines the privilege to source mango for export in the USA in any of its provinces, except Palawan, and would entice other countries to import our mango.

Mango pulp weevil (MPW) and mango seed weevil (MSW) are pests that attack the pulp and seed of the mango fruit, respectively, rendering it inedible.

The Special Commodity of Understanding for the Importation to Australia of fresh mango fruit from the Philippines was officially signed at the Philippines Australia Agriculture Forum held in Canberra, Australia on July 9, 2013.

Mangoes from Guimaras and Samal Islands, as well as Davao del Sur entered the Australian market on June 8, 2013.

The Six shipments from June 8 to July 10, 2013 to Melbourne and Adelaide, has a total volume of 4.76 metric tons (MT) and is equivalent to a total value of US $14,587. This signals the acceptance of the Australian government of the country’s mango not only sourced from the Island of Guimaras but to other areas as well, as a result of regular bilateral talks with Australian government, Barron said.

Before being declared MPW and MSW free, BPI conducted a nationwide low monitoring survey for MPW and MSW

in different areas in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

The survey was done in 15 regions and 50 mango-growing provinces. Six regions and 20 provinces were surveyed in Luzon; three regions and 10 provinces in Visayas and; six regions and 20 provinces in Mindanao.

The BPI Plant Quarantine Services are closely monitoring several areas nationwide based on their proximity to weevil-infested areas and the intensity of movement of agricultural commodities and sea and air travellers. These areas included Batangas, Quezon, Oriental Mindoro, Occidental Mindoro, Northern Palawan, Aklan, Antique, Guimaras, Iloilo, Negros Occidental, Cebu, Zamboanga City, Zamboanga Sibugay, Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga del Norte, Misamis Oriental, North Cotabato, SOCSARGEN, Maguindanao, Basilan, Sulu and TawiTawi.

Due to BPI’s commitment in the eradication of the said pests, out of 104,155 trees and 1,040,100 fruits targeted for sampling and collection, a total of 101,971 trees were sampled and 1,009,123 fruits were collected and dissected resulting in a 96.85 percent accomplishment for trees and 96.89 percent accomplishment for fruits for the year 2013.

ZAMBOANGA CIT Y – Motorcycle gunmen shot and wounded two brothers in an attack in Zamboanga City in southern Philippines, police said Monday.

Police said the victims – Michael Cuevas, manager of the Philippine Veterans Affairs Office in Zamboanga City, and Angelo Cuevas, the supply officer of the Zamboanga Sibugay Provincial Health Office – were attacked in the village of Tetuan before dawn Sunday.

The two brothers were heading home on their motorcycle when one of the gunmen shot them.

The assailants fled after the attack thinking they had killed their targets.

Despite their wounds, the victims managed to drive to the nearest hospital.

Police said crime investigators recovered bullet casings of .45-caliber pistol in the area.

The motive of the attack is still unknown, but police said it launched an investigation into the shooting. Gun attacks are not uncommon in Zamboanga City where hired killers are actively operating and largely blamed for the spate of murders here. (Mindanao Examiner)

City hall officials workers to undergo drug test TAGUM CITY -- All personnel of the city government assigned on maintaining peace and order in the city will undergo a mandatory drug test to reinforce the credibility of the human resources in the local government.

No less than Mayor Allan L. Rellon announced this on Monday, June 16, 2014 before the Security Management Officers (SMO) and Traffic Management Officers (TMO), who will be subjected to a mandatory drug test.

“We assume that all employees in the city government are not into drug addiction and the only way to prove that assumption is through this,” the local chief executive explained.

Mayor Rellon added that this program will ensure that workers in the government are physically and mentally fit.

City Human Resource Management Officer Edna J. Quilario also added that the said drug test will also be implemented to other city hall workers regardless of employment status

through random selection by the committee assigned in the implementation of the program.

City officials from the Mayor down to the last Councilor and the respective Department Heads will also submit themselves for the drug test.

All SMOs and TMOs gathered during the briefing were immediately sent to two separate drug testing center using the committee-assigned government vehicle to ensure that all will be subjected to the program.

On his part, Vice Mayor Geterito Gementiza supported the program since this will elevate the image of government workers as “role models” to the society.

Mrs. Quilario stressed that all results will be treated confidential, and her office will then spearhead reform program for those found to be positive as aligned in the LGU’s health and wellness program implemented by the CHRMO. ( Louie Lapat of CIO Tagum)

Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest: Moving ‘4-Ward’ There’s no stopping Yoshinoya, the country’s most popular fast-food chain that specializes in all-time favorite Japanese culinary fare, from going forward with its remarkable gyudon eating challenge.

Now on its 4th year, this much-awaited event has earned the respect of many hungry Filipinos who want to test their mettle when it comes to gastronomic challenges. If Coney Island in New York, USA has the world-famous Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, then the Philippines definitely has Yoshinoya. And just like in the previous editions, the Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest promises to be nothing short of exciting as more gyudon-loving Pinoys are expected to troop to the Yoshinoya stores and sign up.

Several customers dared to consume the most number of gyudon in 5 minutes, and after so many beef bowls consumed in the qualifying rounds done in the store, the names of those who are moving to the Grand Finals are now set. All weekly winners are going to face off each other and try to out-eat other competitors and be crowned as this year’s champion at the Glorietta Activity Center in Makati City.

During the final match, all finalists will compete by eating the most number of bowls in 15 minutes. The Top Three (3) Finalists with the most number of bowls consumed and the least

weight of food left after 15 minutes will be declared winners of the Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest 2014.

And definitely, this year’s prizes get even better—and bigger—especially for the First Place winner, who will receive P150,000 in cash and a round trip ticket to Japan courtesy of Cebu Pacific, which flies two flights daily to Japan via Narita and via Nagoya every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.

The 2nd placer gets P50,000 while the 3rd placer takes home P25,000. Nonwinners will each be given consolation prizes of P2,000 worth of Yoshinoya gift certificates.

Expect tremendous and awesome fun and excitement for this year’s 2014 Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest, which, after 4 years, still stands as a sure-fire hit among gyudon-loving Pinoys. Coming in droves to register for the past challenge editions just goes to show how much this great Japanese meal, composed of steaming white rice topped with sumptuous beef and onion stirred in a mild sweet sauce, is loved by many Filipinos and have made it as part of their daily food fare.

Lebron... from page 1

that best describes the lopsidedness of the rematch that looked like a mismatch.

That James played almost without taking a rest (41 minutes) and scored 31 points did not matter.

Dwyane Wade spent 36 minutes on court and Chris Bosh had 38 minutes of exposure. Wade and Bosh however only scored 11 and 13 points, respectively.

No other Miami player scored in double digits. Ray Allen only had 5 and Mario Chalmers had 8.

On the other hand, five San Antonio players scored over 10, with Finals MVP Kahwi Leonard getting 22.

By the way he played in the finals he could be the heir apparent to the 38-year-old Tim Duncan. Tony Parker meanwhile was scoreless in the first three quarters, but made up in the fourth quarter where he scored 16 points. The only Spurs starter who did not score was Danny Greene.

Led by Manu Ginobili who had 19, San Antonio’s bench also scored better, earning 47 points against the 24 points of Miami’s backups. Ginobili sank three successive triples just when Miami looked poised for a comeback halfway through the fourth quarter.

In addition, the Spurs converted 12 of their 26 attempts at the arc, while the Heat only made 7 of their 25 three-point attempts.

In the four games won

by San Antonio, their average lead was 18 points.

In Game 2 which Miami won, the Spurs lost by just two points. In other words, the Spurs were capable of blanking the Heat if not for the last-quarter lapses, primarily on defense, in the second game.

Popovich’s formula? All throughout the series, San Antonio employed a fastpaced passing game as an anti-dote to Miami’s physical brand of play. Coach Gregg Popovich always reminded his wards that the ball should not stay long in one’s hands and to always find the open man.

In fact, several slow-motion replays showed all – yes, all – of Miami’s defenders with their hands down at the instance a Spurs shooter aimed at the basket. It can only mean a breakdown in defense.

In the end, the king had to give up his crown as history repeated itself.

‘Blue Water Cave:’ Bukidnon’s hidden paradise

Biblical reflection

By ERCEL MAANDIG, Contributor

QUEZON, Bukidnon — For adventurous people who like to smell wood blossoms in the cool fresh mountain air while plunging in a gently flowing cool blue waters, or go into caving or spelunking: Blue Water Cave in this landlocked province of Bukidnon is one perfect place to go.

Municipal town Mayor Gregorio Gue of Quezon said that the local government and a non-government organization (NGO) Kiokong Climbing Society—a non-profit group that now developed the Kiokong Eco-Tourism project here, oversees town visitors’ activities such as trekking and spelunking especially during weekends.

“Visitors should clean their own mess and keep back the trash with them to preserve the cleanliness of the place,” Gue said.

The “Blue Water Cave” is a natural tourist attraction hidden in the lush valley of a river that flows underground in the connecting caverns of the San Jose village here.

“The color of the river water is blue all year round,” Gue said.

He said that the trail to the blue waters includes a scenic view of white rock cliff walls, where hikers and rock wall climbers pulled themselves up a steep rock face surrounded with amazing rock formations, rolling hills and mountains.

Take hikes, take photos, breath the fresh air deeply, and notice the amazing animals from flying lemurs to species of birds soaring up high, he added.

The entrance of the place is along the national highway with a huge billboard describing at a glance what this municipality offers. Quezon Municipality is said to be Mindanao’s sugar capital located in southern Bukidnon. It is four to five hours away from Cagayan de Oro and three to four hours from Davao City.

Visitors can get in touch with Kiokong Eco Tourism days before the actual visit for food and transportation tips.

A narrow trail leading the Blue Water Cave is clearly visible and no guide is required to reach it.

It is an easy way towards the paradise, until a steep way downwards approaches to finally reach the riverbank of Pulangi River and see the wonderful cave.

The cool, semi-deep, pure blue water meets the Pulangi waters, and leaves a bluish area before mixing with the waters of the giant River where a Hydro Power Plant is located, Gue said.

The cave’s opening is small. At the bottom, cool and clear water accumulated. It is freezing cold and very refreshing.

Following the trail back is also the route for the White Rock Wall Climbing.

There are fixed pitons (mountaineering device) going up the White Rock Wall. These are like pegs hammered into rocks with hooks where the mountaineer attaches Karabiners. Karabiners are metal loops used as connectors to safely hold a freely running rope.

The Kiokong Climbing Society facilitators always check the safety gears. They demonstrate how to pull ropes up and how to rappel down.

They said that a “beginner” usually goes for up to 30 feet. Advanced climbers, facilitators can offer the 30-meter climb.

This hidden paradise of Southern Bukidnon is truly an amazing tourist destination one could unexpectedly think of Bukidnon to have this place as one of its treasures.

The adrenaline rush adventure on its trail, the amazing rock formations, cool, pure, and clear water gushing from a cave makes this beautiful Blue Water Cave perfect for an all-year round adventure.

Its unspoiled beauty, serene surroundings, and wildlife treasures have enticed countless visitors each year.

Truly untouched, the way God originally created it. One of His bountiful creations—a hidden paradise! tensive lectures on handling and paddling techniques.

“The accident is an eye opener for the local government and the industry itself. We must come up with measures to save this industry by emphasizing on the safety of the tourists,”

Moreno said.

An estimated 5,000 local tourists from all over the country arrive here every year to experience whitewater adventure thrills, making Cagayan de Oro the nation’s whitewater capital. (Froilan Gallardo / MindaNews)

Money Special Gospel of the day: Mark12:1317(June 17, 2014-Tuesday) Mark 12:13-17Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see [it]. And they brought [it]. And he saith unto them, Whose [is] this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar’s.

And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled at him.Take note, it was their official law to pay for the taxes of the Roman Empire.

Matthew 17:27-Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
