LOOK: Who among these aspirants will be the next IP representative?

By ZEA IO MING C. CAPISTRANO, DavaoToday.com

avao City – After two postponements, the Kagan tribe is set to choose the next IP (indigenous people) representative Wednesday at the Davao City Recreation Center.

Macapayao Lito Larry Joel Janor Jafar Halila Bobby The eight aspirants include: Ateneo Islamic Studies coordinator Janor Balo, former Waan Brgy. Captain Macapayao Apadan, Brgy. Waan Datu Bobby Mohammad, Brgy. San Raphael Datu Jafar Pandadagan, Brgy. Talomo Muslim Village Datu Larry Cabaguio, businessman Joel Bustamante, former Tigatto Brgy. Captain Lito Lapitan and former Sangguniang Kabataan Federation president Halila Sudagar. Last January 7, the selection process was postponed following the walkout of tribal council leaders who could not agree on the selection process. Five of the aspirants: Balo, Mohammad, Pandadagan, Cabaguio, and Bustamante withdrew their candidacy for Apadan but later decided to have their names included again on the candidate’s list after the commotion. The second schedule was then moved to January 12 at the Sangguniang Panlungsod rooftop but was later postponed due to the venue’s limitation of space. According to Cristito Ingay National Commission on Indigenous People (NCIP) Davao del Sur Director, choosing the next IP representative is very important pursuant to Republic Act 8371 or the “Indigenous

Peoples Rights Act of 1991 (IPRA).” IPRA’s Section 16 provides that the Indigenous Cultural C ommunities / Indigenous Peoples (ICCs/IPs) “have the right to participate fully, if they so choose, at all levels of decision-making in matters which may affect their rights, lives and destinies through procedures determined by them as well as to maintain and develop their own indigenous political structures.” Ingay said that there will be around five representatives from each of the other tribes who will be attending the selection process. “We are depending on the Kagan communities. They are not the only tribe who needs representation,” Ingay said in an interview with Davao Today. “Hopefully they will be able to choose an IP representative through a consensus” he said. The next IP representative will be chosen by the 37 Kagan communities since the IP representative rotates among the city’s indigenous tribes. Section 4 of Ordinance No. 0448-10 otherwise known as An Ordinance Providing Mandatory Representation for Indigenous peoples in the City Council of Davao and Providing Funds Therefor, states that the city has six major indigenous peoples “needing representation

Meanwhile, former IP representative Datu Berino Mambo-o Sr. wishes that the Kagan tribes will finally unite. “They need to reach an understanding because what caused the delay last time was having eight aspirants.

Cag de Oro businesses to pay taxes ”under protest” Bukidnon • Camiguin • Lanao del Norte • Lanao del Sur • Misamis Occidental • Misamis Oriental

By Allan M. Mediante Editor in Chief

CAGAYAN de Oro City––In a circular dated January 19, 2015, the Cagayan de Oro Chamber of Commerce and Industry Foundation Inc. (Oro Chamber) urged its members to pay their 1st quarter taxes to the city government under protest. The development stemmed from the refusal of the City Treasurer to extend the deadline of payment for business taxes, registration and permits to March 31, 2015 as provided in a recent Sangguniang Panglungsod ordinance. On the contrary, the City Treasurer has announced the other day its extension of the deadline to January 31, 2015 only. The business organizations also cited their confusion on which tax revenue code, the old or new?, would be applied. The Oro Chamber circular signed by its newlyelected president ENGR. CERAEL C. DONGGAY, states in part: “…. Last January 15, 2015, the City Treasurer sent us a letter answering our previous request. (Please refer to Page 4, 5, 6 and 7). As per decided, the business community shall pay for the 1st Quarter but “PAID UNDER PROTEST”. (Please refer to Page 8). So these things will be put into proper order. “ Page 8 attached to Oro Chamber’s circular, which also urged its members who received individual business tax assessments for 2015 not to agree with the City Treasurer’s computation of the taxes due them, is a pro-forma letter to the City Treasurer’s Office which reads as follows: “ (LETTERHEAD of ESTABLISHMENT) 16 January 2015 Glenn C. Banez City Treasurer Office of the City Treasurer City Hall of Cagayan de Oro RE: PAYMENT UNDER PROTEST Dear Sir: I am writing on behalf of __________________ ____________________ (name of company), a sole proprietorship/partnership/corporation located at ______________________ (address), Cagayan de Oro City. We have received our business tax assessment for 2015 and we do not agree

with your computation. However, since we could not renew our business permit unless we pay our business tax, we are paying the first quarter of taxes under protest. For this reason, we request that you indicate the phrase “PAID UNDER PROTEST” on our official receipt. We shall file our formal protest in due time. Thank you. Sincerely yours, __________________ _____________________ ________ (Name of Business Owner/Representative) .”

Earlier, on January 8, 2015, the Oro Chamber sent a letter to Mayor Oscar Moreno asking the latter’s help in extending the deadline for the payment of business permits and registration due on January 20. The letter which was signed by Oro Chamber president ENGR. CERAEL C. DONGGAY; Cagayan de Oro Filipino- Chinese Chamber of Commerce president ANTONIO CHAN; Misamis Oriental Filipino Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry president GREG MARTEN LAO; Philippine Chinese Chamber of Commerce &Industry Misamis Oriental Chapter MR. PARE SY; Cagayan de Oro Chamber of Industries president EFREN CABABAT; and Orobankers Club Inc., president CRISANTIAGO T. PAROJINOG, also stated that they are confused “…as to which City Tax Revenue Code (the old 2003 or the new 2015 City Tax Revenue Code)… would be used this January. The business groups were asking for the extension of the deadline in paying for the Business Registration Permits until a clear decision, on which code would be applied, is issued by the City Treasurer’s Office. On January 15, City Treasurer Glen Banez, sent a letter-reply to the business groups, concurred by Mayor Oscar Moreno, saying that “the 2003 Revenue Code of Cagayan de Oro City is still currently in effect…” reasoning that “…the 2015 Revenue Code is ultra vires unconstitutional and grossly prejudicial to the interest and welfare of the people of Cagayan de Oro City. The City Treasurer’s letter also stated that the Sangguniang Panglungsod has just

recently passed an Ordinance “…extending the payment of local taxes, fees and charges to March 31, 2015, without surcharges and penalties..” but said that it (the City Treasurer’s Office) does not recognize said Ordinance because the extension has “no justifiable reason or cause,” contrary to the provision of Sec. 167 of the Local Government Code.

The City Treasurer’s Office also charged that the request for extension by some business men coursed through the City Council was based on a “mere convenience” by some tax payers, and is misdirected because the request should have been coursed thru the City Mayor’s office as “Collection of Taxes is an executive function.”

The Sangguniang Panglungsod is also maintaining its stand saying that Section 167 of the Local Government Code allows the Sanggunian to extend the time of payment of taxes, fees or charges, without surcharges or penalties for a period not exceeding six (6) months. Treasurer Bańez warned that businesses who fail to pay business tax after the

January 31 deadline extension would be made to pay 25% surcharge and 2% penalty starting February 1, 2015. “We appeal to the local business community nga magbayad sila sa business taxes until January 31, 2015 because we will be imposing surcharges and penalties starting February 1, 2015,” hangyo sa City Treasurer.

Legal insurance program for the poor Two lawmakers have filed a measure establishing a legal insurance program for poor litigants so they may access financial assistance while their cases are pending in court. The proposal was raised by Reps. Rufus Rodriguez (2nd District, Cagayan de Oro City) and Maximo Rodriguez, Jr. (Party-list, Abante Mindanao), who both noted that free access to the courts and quasijudicial bodies and adequate legal assistance shall not be denied to any person by reason of poverty. The poor should always have equal access to justice in the country so as not

to undermine equality in society. The poor are particularly likely to face problems accessing justice institutions because these institutions are remote, slow and unaffordable, or are biased and discriminatory. Rodriguez said other barriers to justice occur when the poor are not aware of their rights or where justice institutions and processes are intimidating or unnecessarily complex. Most often, the poor are most vulnerable to being abused and unable to protect themselves against the injury and economic loss associated with such

Editorial abuse, thus there is really a need for legal empowerment. Our salute to the Rodriguezes for filing House Bill 3697, which note that any person who qualifies as a poor litigant on the qualifications used by the Public Attorney’s Office (PAO) might avail of the benefits under this Program. A poor litigant may avail of reasonable travelling expenses and subsistence allowance in such amount as the Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) may determine for his attendance

in court. He or she may also avail of a bond for provisional liberty and for civil liability depending on the nature of the case and other relevant circumstances, according to the proposed measure. The fund to be used for the Program are suggested to be derived from the 10% share of the net income of the Philippine Games and Amusement Corporation (PAGCOR), Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) and Duty Free Philippines. The IBP is directed to promulgate the rules and regulations of the Act. This is a noble government service.

Time is of the essence Cagayan De Oro City Mayor Oscar Moreno is on the offensive. With the backings of 24 barangay leaders and their constituents, the Moreno political machine has started to rev up. Thanks to the City Council’s shortsightedness. Moreno has effectively employed the psychological warfare of Lau Tzu’s “Art of War.” What does it mean? It means that Moreno is now taking advantage of the weaknesses that the political opponents have themselves created. And, Moreno gets the edge. While the majority members of the City Council believe that they are still the political group to reckon with, the group of Moreno

is gradually taking grounds. One day, it will not come a surprise to many that the political citadel of the majority members will crumble like a house of cards. An acid test of the Padayon

Pilipino is now shaping up. Former City Mayor Vicente Emano, the Padayon Pilipino honcho, knows that something is wrong. Indeed, something is wrong. With the way Vice Mayor Ian Acenas argue the position of the majority members of the City Council on the approved 2015 budget, one could glean some kind of immaturity. It is not surprising ‘though when someone is being simply utilized as a political plug in. Well, isn’t it self-explanatory? Candidly, I sympathized with the political acumen of some members of the City Council in the likes of Adrian Barba, Monching Tabor, and others whose

keen understanding of the issue is beyond reproach. Anyway, as Moreno’s groups start a political offensive, Acenas is issuing statements without value. For instance, he was overheard as saying over the radio that “the City Treasurer is not a Cagayanon.” Then, being not a native Cagayanon, Acenas seems to imply that the City Treasurer has no business to dictate and impose laws against the will of the Cagayanons. Tell us who the native Cagayanons are who have transformed Cagayan De Oro City to become what it is today. Nonsense! Many believe that a maSee diaz, page A9

COA AND FOUR GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO INPOSE STRICTER RULES ON TAXPAYERS MONEY SPENDING The Commission On Audit (COA) and four government agencies have already agreed to impose stricter controls in safeguarding the use of billions of pesos in CONFIDENTIAL and INTELLIGENCE FUNDS (CIF’S) which I believe also includes calamity and peace and order funds, that have been wantonly abused and said to be pointed out as one of the sources of GRAFT in the local and national government offices.

Local Crisis Management Committee sought for a local 10-day truce extension

UTUAN CITY -- The Surigao del Norte Provincial Crisis Management C ommittee (PCMC) has sought a 10-day extension of the ceasefire at the local level through the provincial administrator to pave way for the negotiations for the safe release of the three police personnel who are still in the hands of their captors until this time. Atty. Premolito Plaza, the provincial administrator of the province has issued a press statement saying that they have continuously exerted efforts

for the immediate and safe release of the three PNP personnel in Surigao del Norte, who are still held captive by the New People's Army (NPA) for over two months now, according to the information passed by the Philippine Information Agency 13 to the local media outlets here. The Provincial Crisis Management C ommittee, in a resolution, accordingly recommended for a 10-day extension of the ceasefire at the local level, particularly in the areas of Claver, Gigaquit, Bacuag and Alegria, all of

the province of Surigao del Norte. The Christmas ceasefire announced by Malacanang has already expired at the midnight of Jan. 19. On Monday morning, top military and police officials here in the region said that they were ready to do their mandated normal functions; which included law enforcement, crime prevention and other police operations on the part of the PNP and the focused military operations coupled with the community organizing for peace and develop-

ment and internal security operations in the part of the military, upon the expiration of the monthlong unilateral Christmas truce in the declared by the government. This will, accordingly include all the necessary effort to effect the safe release of the three abduction victims. Both the military and the police here also said however, that they were favorable to any negotiations and other peaceful means which might result to the immediate and safe release of the captives.

Ethics, a Perpetual Aide-mémoire By Jocelyn S. Samuya, SST-III, Salawagan NHS

The world’s greatest picture was captured from a povertystricken country. Populace died one by one because of starvation. With that, one man was commended as the world’s greatest photographer. Why? He witnessed a child who was about to die and vultures were waiting for the child’s dead body. Yes, right at the photographer’s eye and his camera, he captured the most ironic scenario, the boy took his last breathe, died and his body was eaten by the vultures. This was an event when he was on his triumph but haunted by the dark side of it. He was haunted by conscience, and when such time he was not able to bear it; he committed suicide. What an irony! This is what happened to the photographer. He made an action that benefited him at the expense of a boy, the death of an innocent child, when he had all the time and effort to keep the child alive and let him live a life due for the boy. He was not concerned with what the right thing to do is but concerned most with what he had the right to do. It is true that it was his job; however, more than his right to take pictures

would be his ethical right to save the child from death. This story has lingered into my mind since the day a professional photographer in our region told the student-photojournalists as his motivational words in a seminar-workshop, that more than the pictures a photographer captures is the message. This illustration is how I also view ethics. This is an eye opener for me that when destiny and God’s will allows me to become an administrator, I must adhere to the ethical principles- trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship. To be an effective and efficient leader of the school, I shall lead by example of good ethical values. I must create an ethical culture of where each one has social responsibility and accountability to school’s mission and vision. The ethical commitment and ethical competency by each teacher are the key success of the administrator as to bring about academic excellence and greatest good among the stakeholders. DepEd is a government and non-profitable institution. Yet, working in the department as teachers, we are capitalists. Our capital is never equated in terms

the different activities of the province for the year 2015 in order to harmonize the utilization of manpower and resources of the province. Participants of the said

activity are department heads of different offices and the administrative officers of the province. (SDR/Ma. Jane A. Mayola, PIO-Dinagat Islands/ PIA-Dinagat Islands)

of “money” but in “service.” This is our capital and our capital is our learners and who will they become in the future is our very profit. As teachers, we work guided by laws and values for society is our eyes and ears; it is our stage and they have high expectations on us. We can “make” or “break” the future of an individual. Thus, it is an imperative that while students are in our hands, we have to teach them moral values. Our students are our social responsibility to become productive, God-fearing and law abiding citizens. Moral development among students faces tremendous challenges among teachers. Teachers must understand how emotional and social needs of students transform as they mature. That is why, teachers should engage to pro-active classroom management. . Along with new mantra to tailor initiatives as a solution to disciplinary problems among students is the vital part of the parents. Meeting with parents is very substantial to also have a heart to heart talk to establish some issues regarding misbehaviours among their sons and daughters. The information gathered by the teacher will be a guiding light towards understanding the student and interventions will be applied both teacher, parents even the whole school community. I will explain to the parents to really

make follow up on the studies of their children. The failure of the students in school will bring about negative effect such as the feeling that they cannot be successful in the future. Many overlapping factors influence student behaviour, including perception, temperament, developmental level, and physical well-being. The environment plays an equally essential role. Home –school environment will aid students in doing constructive discipline, which is involving the parents. I have to reiterate the importance of discipline as instantaneous correction of misbehaviours and as headway to develop trusting relationships. Adolescents need to have social skills. In their stage, they are prone to committing untoward actions. We as teachers want our students follow rules yet we also want them to be participative and responsible for their actions. The partnership of teacher and parents will build a foundation of love, respect and rapport has positive results of lifting the students’ morale towards their studies despite of students’ disciplinary problems. “An ethical person chooses to do more than the law requires and less than the law allows.” This it takes to act ethically, an endless reminder.

Meeting the challenge of reading difficulties among students By Norberto E. Rosales, EPS

Learning is a complex process. Just like it, reading is a challenging task for children especially on early grade levels. There are determined reading problems among pupils. It is also important for teachers or parents to understand the source of reading problem of each child in order for it to be addressed. The child might not recognize start or end sounds. Many children know their letter sounds, but cannot recognize these sounds when trying to sound out words. He cannot spell the word. While there are a number of spelling rules, conventions and exceptions that take time to learn, spelling in the early grades is only a concern if regular, phonetic words are

misspelled. Spelling is a key decoding skill. The child resists reading. Many children with reading difficulties start to resist reading out loud to their parents, and become easily distracted in reading times in school. He might not find reading an enjoying activity. Many students do not enjoy reading for any reason - text books, assigned texts, novels, newspapers, and magazines. These are just part of several sources of reading problems among pupils. Parents and teachers play big role in determining the reason behind a child’s difficulties in reading. Once it is determined, the teacher will directly know where to focus, in order for the child to learn reading easier.

Happy Home: An Avenue for Child Love of Reading By Nanette M. Tedlos, HT-III

A happy abode is a dwelling place that is healthy for one’s body, mind and spirit. A home shall be a place that possess a vibration that can be life-suppressing or life enhancing. During the past decades, reading was one of the hobbies that children love to acquire. Many children can be seen reading books, magazines and novels during their vacant times in school and at home. However, children of the new generation are disturbed by the advent of technology which is manifested through the access of various gadgets. Their love and desires for reading has been diminished because of the said technology. The presence of a happy home can inspire children to revive the love of reading and make reading as their past time activity. According to Sydney Smith a comfort-

able home is a great source of happiness. It ranks immediately after health and a good conscience. A happy home influence children to do reading because a good environment is conducive to reading. Whatever stage the child is in, they should be provided with the right home that will help contribute their feeling of wholesomeness and contentment. Children who are good in reading have good foundation for learning. It is through reading that a child can develop his understanding and to acquire knowledge not only in English but in all subject areas because the first thing that a child should learn is reading. Not all children are born with the passion of reading but creating an environment of a happy home inspire and develop child love of reading.

Troops capture 2 ASG camps in Basilan;

1 bandit killed, 3 others wounded in fresh clashes

By Teofilo Garcia Jr.

AMBOANGA CITY - Government forces have captured two camps of the Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) as fresh clashes ensued that resulted in the death of an ASG member and injured four others in Basilan province, military officials said Wednesday. Rear Admiral Reynaldo Yoma, Task Force Zambasulta commander, said the clash broke out around 11 a.m. Tuesday while the troops were on law enforcement operations at Sitio Penas, Barangay Pamatsaken, Sumisip, Basilan province. Yoma said the Abu Sayyaf brigands fled towards north direction following a 15-minute firefight that injured one of the brigands,

Yusof Sandatan, based on information gathered by the troops. Yoma said the bandits numbering around 25 people were led by Juhaibel Alamsirul alas Abu Kik, a Basilan-based sub-leader of the ASG. Yoma said that around 12:55 p.m., the troops conducted counter-sniper operation when they came under enemy sniper fires

as they “inched their way in clearing the enemy position” in Baiwas-Pamatsaken area. He said that another firefight ensued around 1:38 p.m. in at Sitio Crossing, Barangay Baiwas, Sumisip, as the troops continued to clear the area. He said the number of the Abu Sayyaf members swelled to 50 as the group of Abu Kik was reinforced by the group of another ASG sub-leader identified as Radzmil Janatul alias Abu Khubayb. He said the firefight lasted for about two hours “with the troops effectively conducting fire and maneuver and the employment of close-air support” that forced the Abu Sayyaf brigands to flee towards west direction. He said the brigands suffered one death and three others wounded. The troops suffered zero casualties in the separate clashes. He said the two ASG camps the troops have captured in Barangay Baiwas,

Sumisip can accommodate more or less 100 people. Col. Rolando Joselito Bautista, commander of the Basilan-based Army’s 104th Infantry Brigade, said the troops have also recovered an improvised explosive device (IED) at the old school building in Barangay Baiwas, Sumisip. Bautista said the Abu Sayyaf brigands that figured Tuesday in the series of firefight with the troops were responsible for the death of six soldiers, including a junior officer, on November 2, 2014 in Barangay Libug, Sumisip. The troops who belong to the Army’s 64th Infantry Battalion were providing security to the concreting of the Basilan circumferential road when the bandits ambushed them. Yoma said the law enforcement operations aimed to defeat the lawless elements particularly the ASG will continue in coordination with the police and local government officials in Basilan province.

ICT: In promoting advanced learning in schools By Alden M. Antonio Administrative Assistant II Department of Education Division of Tangub City

In this modern era lies the advanced life. Teenager, mostly students, are ones more affected in this modernization and are hooked in using technologies. This, in order to go along on modern trend and for schools to cope up through the attitude and mindset of 21st century generation kids, modern learning environment should be established and for one, through making use of Information and Communication Technology. ICT is important to be accessed in classrooms. Students should be exposed in this kind in order to widen the scope of their learning. In addition, they will be updated and taught on what is already existing in real life. Exposing them to modern technologies could also help them to be at par with the advancing knowledge. Moreover, ICT can help them in their school tasks. Mathematics, for example, is a subject that encourages more research and exploration. Thus, computer, being a machine which prime use is to provide information, is a great use in learning Math. It could help students to further acquire more understanding to what a teacher has introduced in class. In an instance, computers contain applications such as spreadsheets under excel, computer algebra systems,

databases and communication facilities. These are the tools used for educational computing and are used to analyze and process words and numbers programmed by a student and suggest results. Modern technologies are made in order to make life easier and more comfortable. Computers are not exception on that. In the given example, through the use of spreadsheets, data handling can be done in a minimum amount of time and effort, allowing the students to interact with the data focusing on the interpretation of it. Hence, children can understand data more easily. They can get rid of many unnecessary calculations which inhibit the learning of main objectives of a Mathematics lesson, the mathematical concepts. Classrooms should be accessible to resources that includes modern gadgets. In this way, learning could not just be gained and limited through teacher-students interaction, but as well each student is free to access a wider scope of ideas, even to knowledge that are not taught in classrooms. Human life through the years is evolving and as well as the knowledge, lifestyle and trend that goes with it. Thus, it is important that even in the matters of learning, ways involved should be transcended as well. The ones mentioned above are just few.

Collaboration of Community to Combat School Attendance By Danny A. Asio SST – I, MOGCHS

Students’ attendance is the most common indicator of students’ academic performance. The prevalence of school dropout is conspicuous to every nook and cranny in the community. Oftentimes students present a variety of nonsense alibis for not attending school. The common factors are family problems and poverty. Teachers know where this leads, dropout or worst juvenile delinquency. How can we attain100% promotion rate? How can we pull our students back to the spotlight? Who are our trusty partners? PARENTS. Research shows that students perform well when parents are involved in school monitoring. Family involvement is a reliable predicts initiative of reaching out to parents and informing them of their students’ progress and problems in school. Take time to conduct home visitation especially to problematic students to show the parents that your goal is genuine. COMMUNITY.

Students are part of school community, but they are also part of the community outside the school grounds. Schools are not a sole dimension. Accordingly, it takes a whole village to educate a child. Schools are integral part of their community. Schools need to realize that the community is one of their partners. ADMINISTRATOR. Disciplining the students is not a sole responsibility of the teacher. Although the word “Corrective Measures” should primarily come from the teacher, it doesn’t mean that teachers have to carry the burden themselves. Teachers do not exist in isolation. Administrator should also help the teachers implement a comprehensive plan to combat attendance problems. One good example is providing a school-wide incentive to enhance students’ attendance like interclass competition for Best in Attendance. When all entities in the village show collective support to the school to build a strong community, students can strive to thrive in school and succeed accordingly.

Best Practices for Teacher Professional Development By Angelina B. Buaron Education Program Supervisor, English DepEd, Region X

The conduct of the Regional Training in Teaching Literature and Literary Criticisms held on January 14-16, 2014 at the Regional Educational Learning Center (RELC), Lapasan, Cagayan de Oro City provided an avenue for the Department of Education, Region X to gather the scholars of the Philippines – Australia, Project in Basic Education (PA-PROBE) to be able to hear again the inputs of their mentor from the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia in developing teachers professionally. It was 17 years ago when some teachers and school heads coming from this department were sent to the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia for a two-month scholarship training in English, Science and Mathematics. Some of these scholars have already retired from the service, while others are still active if not promoted to higher positions. To include these scholars were Ingrid G. Racoma, Ph.D., retired OICRegional Director; Cherry Mae L. Limbaco, Ph.D., Schools Division Superintendent of Misa-

supervisor in English fixed the matrix to include Fortino. In her talk, she shared some research findings from the Chicago Archdiocese of Illinois and the professional development of teachers for the new Middle School Science Program from Biological Science Curriculum Project (BSCS). She introduced a training model where the facilitator helps to create a cohort of learners as teachers exchange phone and email contacts. The facilitator introduces a small portion of the new materials at each workshop, spaced over time in two to three-week intervals. The principals on the other hand give teachers leeway to try out the new techniques with their students in a different style of classroom management and in varied assessments. To follow up, the next session will be for review on the comments from each other, what worked well and what did not work well, why or why not. Teachers will get the reactions from the students on the new techniques of teaching through inquiry based-questions, collaborative learning, or any form of questioning. From there, form a teacherlearning community. It will be from this manner to find out if teachers communicate with each other or

not and what reasons there are for making it so. The next step is to interview the facilitator to discuss changes for the next session. The evaluator will interview individual teachers to chart self-confidence, show changes in student responses to new methods. Small focused groups will be used to learn what is working and what is not. This model for professional development may be continued for their cohort. Plans for more assessments have to be made so teachers can communicate changes they have made to parents and principals who were used to traditional grading. Extending enthusiasm of their students regarding cooperative learning to other teacher in their school may also be an ideal action. This will help them understand a constructivist approach to learning. She said that the new facilitator may not have a fully developed knowledge of the philosophical basis of the program, but they can give practical, anecdotal examples of changes they have made in their own teaching styles and how this new kind of professional development has affected their students. #

Teachers Journey... By ROLLEN B. SUMO-OY

A small step starts a journey but takes a year, decade or millennium to eradicate the growing number of illiterates in our community. Our EFA goal of 2015 will come to an end but the question is How far we are in our campaign against illiteracy, 0 dropped out and high academic performance? Have you changed the lives of the people in your community? How many individual being transform from illiteracy to a functional literate individual? These are just few out of thousands of questions which will surely remind us to our duties and responsibilities as educators. Being a teacher is not an easy job, you have to double or triple your time just to reach the (DDU) Depressed, Deprived and Underserved people in our community.

by different situations and different reasons, but if we have the courage and strong determination, we will be able to change the community and I know for sure that we had contributed our share in the “Edukasyon ang Sulosyon and Abot Alam Program”. Hard work is just one side of a coin of the DepEd family. The other side is a celebration. Celebration to what we have accomplished so far.... there are many reasons to celebrate. But still greater challenge ahead of us, there so much has to be done. See the beautiful landscapes of Bukidnon, behind those are the people who still need our help. We have to go out and reach for them. Reach those who need our service and together we will help them to elevate themselves. As we go to our schools, let our heart be full of passion and dedication to strive hard for excellence and compassion to our pupils, then, the journey will start...

Camiguin eyes cloning technology to increase lanzones production

AMBAJAO, Camiguin -While it is known to grow the best and sweetest lanzones in the country, the province is likewise eyeing for production increase through macrosomatic cloning. Governor Jesus M. Romualdo bared that the Provincial Agriculture Office (PAO) is now ready for the technology, with a team of trained personnel to handle the macrosomatic training. Romualdo said the process will cut off the production and propagation period of lanzones planting materials to only 4 months, than the traditional propagation period which requires more than a year.

He also noted that the province's pro duc tion is increasing every year, along with its new Camlong (Camiguin and Longkong) lanzones variety. For last year, about 20 metric tons of Camlong were produced from the model farm in Mahinog town, with a gross sale of P1.4 million. The Camlong variety is also sold at a higher price because of its shelf life, it can last longer than the native lanzones fruit. In total, the province recorded about 810 metric tons of lanzones sold to Metro Manila, Bacolod, Cebu, Iloilo and other nearby cities and provinces, last The lure of Camiguin (in the background) as a weekend getaway remains attractive to tourists who also want to taste its sweet lanzones.

US should stop exporting light oil to keep domestic oil prices low WASHINGTON -- Weakening of the oil export ban leads to increased oil prices in the United States and the Department of Commerce should reconsider its decision to allow light oil trade, US Senators Bob Menendez and Edward Markey said Tuesday. “We understand that both American and world oi l pr i c e s h av e f a l l e n dramatically in recent months, but we believe we should vigorously preser ve the oil export ban and ensure American oil prices are as low as possible and not pursue policies that will narrow the gap between American oil prices and world oil prices,” senators said in a letter to the Secretary of the US Department of Commerce Penny Pritzker. The US oil prices were lower than international because of an embargo that prohibited companies to export the commodity. However, in 2014 the Commerce Department corrected the definition of what crude oil was, allowing to trade condensate. Oil markets were negatively affected by Saudi Arabia's decision to cut pr ices for Januar y deliveries to US and Asian customers. This change weakened the embargo and allowed

two companies, Enterprise Products Partners and Pioneer Natural Resources, to sell light crude oil abroad. As the result of the Commerce Department decision, “that discount for US crude has been nearly erased”, senator’s letter read. “ The on ly interests that do not seem to benefit from cheaper American oil are oil companies who want to be able to fetch higher prices for their product on the world market. That is understandable, but basing policy on what is best for oil companies to the detriment of most American bu s i n e s s e s , A m e r i c a n c on s u m e r s , A m e r i c an workers, and our national

security simply does not make sense,” Menendez and Markey said. According to the letter, American oil-producing companies are looking to completely lift the export b an, and amendments regarding this matter will head to the Senate floor next week. Menendez and Markey intend to oppose new legislation. The US Energy Policy and Conservation Act was signed into law in 1975 in response to shortage of global oil supply after the Arab oil embargo. It banned crude oil export with some exceptions, like crude from Alaska or heavy oil from California, and created the Strategic Pe t rol e u m R e s e r ve a s emergency fuel storage. (PNA/Sputnik)

ture political thought would never hint on racial differences to describe anyone who is perceived to be a political nemesis. Perhaps, that sounds too profound be understood. Rephrasing it to align with the local thought, it means “a mature political thought would never cross on the issue of “regional discrimination.” Well, I am not here to depend the City Treasurer. I am not personally known to the City Treasurer. However, a person having appointed to that position, the City Treasurer knows his job better than Acenas as far as revenue collection is concerned. I think if would be better for the Padayon to get an impeccable spokesman among the ranks. A party member whose mind is prepared to tackle issues of complex political issue would be the best person to be assigned with the job. My apology, but, I do think Acenas is incapable. Well, the time is of the essence. As Moreno wages a political offensive without constraint, the political battlefield will certainly be different in the coming days. While everybody then think that Moreno has become a political pariah, that current political development in the city proves that that notion is an understatement. -0react: crisguardian@yahoo. com

private enterprises did not announce anything about their companies. Why such government agencies are very fast in informing the public of the impending increases of their products, and conditioning the minds of the public? Like energy secretary LOTILLA keeps on warning the electricity price increases incoming summer, inspite of the prospect of surplus supply of electricity in Luzon? In Mindanao, MDA investments and promotions director MARIO MONTENEGRO still sounding an alarm in the increased rate of electricity, instead of informing the public on the status of the HYDRO ELECTRIC COMPLEXES in Pulangi an Agus Plants in Bukidnon, and in Lanao Provinces, with the releases of funds of PHP4.2 BILLION for its rehabilitations. It was learned that said HDYRO ELECTRIC COMPLEXES supplies almost 70% of energy in Mindanao. Sad to note, Mr. Montenegro propagated the private coal plants operated by big business men. Was there a complex conspiracy happening in our energy matters? This actions of said high profile government officials are very doubtful in nature. -o O o If former GMA cabinet member JESUS DUREZA was apprehensive of the

Muslims backlash, (In his column at Mindanao Daily News), same feelings was expressed by him, “here our criminals are not made to pay. Worse, they merrily prepare for the next crimes. I got angry thinking about this. When someone is “salvaged”, the authorities comes seeing with bold angry, challenging words, only to eventually just whimper”. This columnist disagreed with DUREZA seeing that the PNP still use“primitive” tools for crime solutions, even as PNP chief PURISIMA said they have sophisticated gadgets for crime solutions, What is needed is the honest to goodness enforcement of laws without fear and favor? Calling the patriotic and honest PNP people, serve the Pilipino people with candor, fairness and justice for in the end you will be rewarded!

a negotiation. The MHCC is the owner of Lot No. 18630-A with an area of 1,059 square meters to be used as an access road of the residents of San Miguel, according to The Power, the daily newsletter of the City Council. Earlier, the Caneos and Atty. Evangeline Carrasco, the group’s legal counsel, appeared during the regular session of the City Council and sought for intervention. Carrasco said the road right-of-way has been existing for almost 30 years. Expropriation During the meeting, Councilor Adrian Barba said the intention of the committee is to know from the MHCC if they are open for negotiations for the purchase of the property. Barba said expropriation proceedings will follow if there is a failure of negotiation. “The negotiation is a prerequisite before the expropriation can be filed by the city government,” Barba stressed. A representative of MHCC assured that the discussion will be forwarded to the corporation. In case of failure of negotiations, the City Council enacted an ordinance authorizing the City Mayor through the City Legal Office, to institute the expropriation for the purchase of the lot. Councilor Dacer asked the City Legal Office, City Assessor’s Office and City Engineer’s Office for the submission of pertinent documents which will be the basis of discussions during the next scheduled meeting. But for Caneos and his group, they said they will fight for what is right citing Art. 649 of Republic Act 386 which provides, “the owner, or any person who by virtue of a real right may cultivate or use any immovable, which is surrounded by other immovable pertaining to other persons and with-

out an adequate outlet to a public highway, is entitled to demand a right of way through the neighboring estates, after payment of the proper indemnity.” Another access road Aside from Lot No. 18630-A, which is owned by MHCC, Caneos said that there is another diversion road leading to San Miguel Village and vice versa. “This is the west wing part of the San Miguel Village, located at the Lapasan National High School going to the highway and is part of sitio Sta. Cruz, also in Barangay Lapasan,” he said. But the road, he said, is far from San Miguel Village. No one knows whether it can be materialized since the owners of the proposed diversion road and the local government of Cagayan de Oro are still in the process of negotiation. “Putol pa man ang maong dalan, dili pa makaagi ang sakyanan, tao lang ang maka-agi,” Caneos said. Aside from it, he added that the proposed diversion road would affect seven landowners. “This would mean that we will have to negotiate to these land owners, first,” he said.

representatives of the local media organizations, forged the agreement at the Archdiocese Palace here. The signatories to the covenant agreed to fight together the proliferation of “illegal drugs and other illicit activities involving the powerful syndicate that continues to hound the citizens of Cagayan De Oro City.” The media organizations also cited the difficulty and overly hazardous in the fulfillment of the media’s avowed role of providing factual information and informed opinions on issues of public concern due to “continued attacks and threats.” It cited the recent threat received by a radio broadcaster who has been harping on the issue involving summary executions and killings allegedly perpetrated by the law enforcers. The covenant also mentioned cases of failed targeted assassination attempts on broadcast commentators like Jo Pantoja on October 2007, Nilo Labares on March 2009 and James Licuanan on November 2012 and the recent threats of Junel Ucat of Bombo Radyo here. The local media asked the Philippine National Police (PNP) to draft safety and security protocols so that journalists are able to carry out their jobs in a safer environment. “Let us put an end to the wanton threats and attacks that perpetuate a culture of impunity for those who aim to stifle a free and unafraid press,” the covenant stated. Olaguera said that the local police command is doing everything to resolve

cases on threats involving media practitioners and is always willing to extend necessary assistance. “We advise the media concern to properly report the threat to the nearest police station so that the process of investigation would also commence,” Olaguera said.

director, said Wednesday they raised the area’s alert status to avert possible untoward incidents and ensure the peaceful and orderly conduct of the polls, which is scheduled on Feb. 21. “We’re currently under heightened or red alert and this will continue until the end of the election period,” he said. The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has set the start of the election period from Jan. 22 to March 2 or 30 days before the election day and 15 days thereafter. Along with the start of the election period on Thursday, Camba said they will implement the firearms or gun ban throughout the region’s four provinces and five cities. He said they have established joint checkpoints with the Comelec in various strategic areas to augment their regular patrols in entry and exit points of the area’s municipalities and cities. Such move was set during the recent regional security coordinating conference called by Comelec Region 12 director Michael Abas. Based on the regulations set by Comelec, Camba said all permits to carry firearms outside residence are cancelled during the duration of the gun ban. He said all existing authority allowing security personnel or bodyguards of local politicians to carry firearms are also revoked. In a statement, the Comelec said law enforcers and security personnel need to apply for the renewal of their certificates of authority and gun ban exemptions. It said all exemptions issued in connection with the May 13, 2013 local and national midterm elections and Oct. 28, 2013 barangay elections are no longer valid. Aside from the gun ban, Camba said they are currently waiting for additional directives from the Philippine National Police and the Comelec central office regarding prohibitions and specific actions related to the coming polls. He said they expect the final directive to come out after the national coordinating conference for the SK elections on Feb. 1 or 2. Camba said they are also preparing to “download” or deploy additional police personnel assigned at the regional headquarters to key city and municipal police offices in connection with the SK elections. He said the deployment will mainly involve personnel from the PRO-12’s Regional Public Safety Battalion. (MindaNews)

Irresponsible computer usage: Its effects to student’s habits By Ofelia D. Paclipan Teacher III Sumirap National High School

Modern technologies are created to upscale our kind of daily life. It is true that the invention of these advanced materials somehow made our tasks and activities easier and faster, making life more comfortable. However, truth be told that it does not just elevated things used to run, but as well people’s good lifestyle. Computers have made several changes in this world. In earlier times when computers are not yet invented, students used books and their notes in studying. They do not rely and engage in activities using technologies. Despite also on the lack of these high-definition gadgets, students still gain good and high grades. In addition to that, students exert effort in studying. They are focused and are striving the hardest to achieve higher grades. In this era, industrial evolution occurs. It envelopes the age of modern technology where almost everything are highdefinition. Computer technologies are getting advanced as

time passes by. Along with that growth and change are the people who almost instantly adapt to changes. Students transform their study habits easier and now, filled with fun. There also come a time that if students are not properly guided, good study habits change. Once they got used in using computers, there is a possibility that they will be attracted to other services offered by these gadgets such as games, social networking sites. Worse is students will be hooked to this activity, diverting their attention from studying to playing. The existence of technology is a great help to humanity. Its prime role is, for one, to help in finishing big tasks in quick manner. It gives comfort and saves time. However, when used irresponsibly, it could also be a tool, pushing people to practice beyond necessary. Even though these things exist, students and teenagers, as common victims, should not also forget that they are humans, they can think and could be responsible. Computers should not control them.

Moro fronts urged to dialogue, unite in Bangsamoro Law LAWMAKERS on Tuesday urged Moro fronts to dialogue, compromise, and forge unity on the proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law that is being reviewed by Congress for passage early this year. Representatives from different groups of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) and Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) served as resource persons during the 35th public hearing conducted by the House of Representatives’ Ad Hoc Committee on the BBL on January 20 at the Batasan complex. Leaders of the Federation of Sultanates were also present as well as Philippine Center for Islam and Democracy (PCID) President Amina Rasul. Muntinlupa Rep. Rodolfo Biazon asked resource persons from the two Moro fronts on the possibility of “reconciling their differences (on the BBL).” Biazon reiterated the need for compromise among the diverse Muslim communities, Christian settlers, and Indigenous Peoples in the proposed Bangsamoro territory, as the Congress will pass only one law. Ad Hoc Committee chair Rufus Rodriguez, Representative of the second district of Cagayan de Oro City, mentioned that there is the Bangsamoro Coordination Forum (BCF) under the auspices of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The BCF serves as the mechanism for the MNLF and MILF to “coordinate their movements toward achieving the aspiration of the Bangsamoro people towards just and lasting peace, and peaceful resolution of their problems.” Sulu Rep. Tupay Loong underscored that “reconciliation (in opinions or interests) is a challenge to all of us.” He meant that even Muslims and Bangsamoro lawmakers in the House of Representatives should also be part of the effort to forge unity among the Bangsamoro groups “to come up with a solid position so the Ad Hoc Committee will not face hardships in passing the BBL.” Loong, the chair of the Committee of Muslim Affairs, suggested that he will invite the Moro fronts for a discussion on issues on the Bangsamoro bill. Citing optimism that Bangsamoro groups can sit down together, he asked time for the discussion to happen so that the Moro fronts can “come to common ground.” South Cotabato 2nd District Rep. Ferdinand Hernandez shared his optimism that it is possible for Moro fronts to unite. “I think all factions here are open to threshing out differences and coming up with one position on the BBL.” He emphasized that the Ad Hoc Committee made numerous public consultations “because we want to come up with a BBL that is acceptable and doable. We are putting a lot of efforts on this because we want this to succeed.”

Bangsamoro gov’t inclusive, open for participation Meanwhile, Bukidnon Governor Jose Zubiri, who was present during the hearing earlier encouraged that “all sectors of Muslims come together and support one Bangsamoro.” Government of the Philippines (GPH) Peace Panel Chair Prof. Miriam Coronel-Ferrer echoed the call of Zubiri for “our brothers and sisters of the Bangsamoro to sit down and discuss how they can further their unity and also the kind of arrangement that they may obtain among themselves so that all together, we will be moving forward towards the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic Law.” Coronel-Ferrer stressed that that intention of the BBL “is to create a democratic institution that will enable that kind of broad popular participation and representation from the different segments of the populace that will fall under the future Bangsamoro autonomous government.” She urged participation in the elections for the future Bangsamoro government “through the political parties that are being opened up for formation and participation in the Bangsamoro parliament.” The government chief negotiator noted that the Bangsamoro Parliament itself will be made up of a much bigger set of representation through the party-list system.

Pleasing Special Gospel of the day: John16:1620 (January22, 2015-Thursday) John 16:16-20”A little while, and you will no longer see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me.” Some of His disciples then said to one another, “What is this thing He is telling us, `A little while, and

you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, `because I go to the Father’?” So they were saying, “What is this that He says, `A little while’? We do not know what He is talking about.” Jesus knew that they wished to question Him, and He said to them, “Are you delib-

erating together about this, that I said, `A little while, and you will not see Me, and again a little while, and you will see Me’? “Truly, truly, I say to you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will grieve, but your grief will be turned into joy: This gospel reminds us to “persevere” in this life. In Matthew 24:13”But the one who endures

Tips in practicing good study habits By Ofelia D. Paclipan Teacher III Sumirap National High School

It is challenging to achieve good grades in school especially when a student belongs to a classroom composing students that are at par when it comes to her intelligence, proactivity and competence. It is hard to find where to place edge between a student and the group. The only way for one to stand out among the group is to develop the skills that he already. By one, it is through practicing good study habits. There are bits of tips advised by the experts for people who want to excel in their school performance. Try not to do too much studying at one time. If you try to do too much studying at one time, you will tire and your studying will not be very effective. Space the work you have to do over shorter periods of time. Taking short breaks will restore your mental energy. Plan specific times for studying. Study time is any time you are doing something related to schoolwork. It can be completing assigned reading, working on a paper or project, or studying for a test. Schedule specific times throughout the week for your study time. Try to study at the same times each day. Studying at the same times each day establishes a routine that becomes a regular part of your life, just like sleeping and eating. When a scheduled study time comes up during the day,

you will be mentally prepared to begin studying. Set specific goals for their study times. Goals will help you stay focused and monitor your progress. Simply sitting down to study has little value. You must be very clear about what you want to accomplish during your study times. Start studying when planned. You may delay starting your studying because you don’t like an assignment or think it is too hard. A delay in studying is called “procrastination.” If you procrastinate for any reason, you will find it difficult to get everything done when you need to. You may rush to make up the time you wasted getting started, resulting in careless work and errors. Work on the assignment they find most difficult first. Your most difficult assignment will require the most effort. Start with your most difficult assignment since this is when you have the most mental energy. Review their notes before beginning an assignment. Reviewing your notes can help you make sure you are doing an assignment correctly. Also, your notes may include information that will help you complete an assignment. Tell their friends not to call them during their study times. Two study problems can occur if your friends call you during your study times. First, your work is interrupted. It is not that easy to get back to what you were doing. Second, your friends may talk about things that will distract you from what you need to do. These ten study habits can help you throughout your education. Make sure these are your study habits.
