Liceo and MOGCHS eye music partnership

T

By Mike Baños

wo of Cagayan de Oro City’s foremost champions of promoting music at the grassroots are coming together to make a long cherished dream come true.

Directors of Liceo de Cagayan University’s Conservatory of Music have been meeting with officials of Paterno Velez Foundation to link the former with the Misamis Oriental General Comprehensive High School (MOGCHS) to upgrade the quality of music learning and appreciation among their students and the musicloving public.

“If we want to raise the quality of music in the city, we have to start as early as possible,” says Horst-Hans Bäcker, director of the Liceo Music Conservatory.

“It’s like a pyramid, we need a wide base from which to choose the best students so we can have a solid, competent core of musicians to build on at the higher level.” partnership/PAGE 10

During my infrequent trips to Metro Manila, I’ve often wondered what was being constructed over Andrews Avenue and NAIA Expressway to Newport City from NAIA Terminal 3.

I rather wished it was a pedestrian walkway similar to the one which used to link the defunct Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong to an airport hotel which was very convenient for

passengers in transit.

After a harrowing experience of having to wait almost three hours for a taxi ride to our destination from NAIA T3, I believed many passengers in those queues wished similarly.

During our family’s latest visit to the capital last week, we finally had an answer and what an answer it was! Completed in only four months from runway/PAGE 11

ON the occasion of the fiesta in their own barangay, the Bugo Eagles Club held a two-day Ultimate (Frisbee) open at the Philippine Southfield School campus last April 29 to 30.

There were ten mixed gender clubs which joined the tilt. They were Taul, Indios, Churba, Pax U, Batalyon, Hype Ultimate, Ganja Adik, Pakin United, Heads Up, BLU, Camp

Philips and Safe Ro. Since the Ultimate Frisbee Challenge (Labay Pasa Salo sa Agila) was an open tourney, it garnered clubs from as far as Tagoloan (Misamis Oriental), Iligan City and the province of Bukidnon.

Churba became the champions with Safe Ra as first runner-up followed

by Blu (second runner-up), Pakin (third runner-up) and

CPU as most spirited team. Tournament MVP was Aldrits of Batalyon for the males and Ces/Kakay of Taul for the female category.

The championship/ finals MVP were Binoy of Churba for the males and Jho of Blu for the females.

According to Bugo Eagles Club president Zoe Curiano, they were inspired to hold a tourney through frisbee/PAGE 11

Syndy Domingo – ladies’ pride in Oro circuit racing I

May 8-14, 2017

Story by MARK FRANCISCO

T’s rare to find a female motorcycle racer in the country. It’s rarer to find one who is still 19 and who looks like your regular tweetum college student. Yet that’s exactly who Syndy Domingo is.

Syndy may not be as voluptuous as her namesake Kim Domingo yet she is definitely the most adored in her league. Every circuit where she races, Syndy is showered upon with verbal accolades, egging her to level up more, honing both her confidence and the much-needed talent in this men’s world. For motorcycle circuit racing is not gender-biased. It is gender-mixed. Thus, women are allowed to compete alongside men.

Surprisingly, Syndy pulled off some awards.

Like the fourth spot she clinched in the 3R Motor Circuit Competition which was held in Iligan City in September 11, 2016. That provided an avenue of hope that women circuit racers can still outshine the strongest and the most cunning of motorcyclists in the track.

Yet Syndy still looks more of a girl than a woman. In this interview, Syndy recalled

the first time she wanted to race. It was during her sixth grade vacation in her hometown in Libona, Bukidnon that she admired her cousin Virgilio crisscrossing the family farm towards downtown and back.

At the meagre age of 13, Syndy asked her cousin to try the motorcycle by herself.

And she instantly fell in love with the twostroke KMX motorcycle.

Virgilio, who has racerfriends in town, would later introduce Syndy to the all-boys group.

There and then, Syndy became one of the boys.

That’s true. Syndy has really no close female friends yet she’s not boyish. In fact, she’s a fashionista and she wears glamorously when not on the track. (She even joined a fashion show way back in 2016 during an opening of a local boutique at Centrio.)

While witnessing underground drag races back home in Libona

and here in Cagayan de Oro, Syndy was slowly encouraged to really try the stuff and join circuit races. And so her baptism of fire was in her own hometown of Libona last October 3, 2012 when she joined the Araw ng Libona Flat Track. She was not among the top placers yet that activity cemented her passion to hone her desire more.

Fast forward to 2017,

Syndy will be the lone representative from Cagayan de Oro who will join the prestigious 2017 UBK/PSR Circuit Racing to be held this June 8 to 9 at Clark International Speedway in Pampanga.

Aside from being the pride of Northern Mindanao, Syndy is also the pride among all women here. Support her we must! And to Syndy, the best of luck!

Oro teens taught about importance of sex abstention Story by MARK FRANCISCO Photos courtesy of CITY INFORMATION OFFICE

MORE than 500 outof-school teens from Cagayan de Oro City who are still minors yet already in child-bearing age underwent a wholeday fertility awareness seminar last week at

Deluxe Hotel.

The seminar, as organized by City Hall’s Community Improvement Division, featured segments on the importance of “true love waits” or abstention from

sex until adulthood or graduating from college.

There’s also another key segment which was learning about avoiding HIV. In the sex abstention segment, lecturer Rolando Butaslac told the teens that they should divert their raging

hormones to other more wholesome activities to keep themselves busy.

Butaslac said engaging in sex risks pregnancy and pregnancy should ideally be materialized only when the woman has already finished studying.

Other topics

embedded in the seminar include Basic Life Skills and Fertility Awareness.

The Community Improvement Division has already been conducting these fertility awareness seminars every summer to counter the steady increase of teenage

pregnancies in the city as well as rising HIV cases.

Of course, these seminars are expected to reap results.

Janette and Ellen, both 21 years old and attendees to the seminar, attested that they will remain virgins until they abstention/PAGE 11

IDC in Breaking Stereotypes: Going Green in Emerging Cities I

By Kim Namocatcat

talpinas Development Corporation (IDC) Chairman and CEO, Architect Romolo Nati shed light on the importance of green buildings in emerging cities in the Philippines during his talk at the Township Development Conference, held at the Dusit Thani Hotel, Manila, on March 26-27, 2017.

Held annually and now on its fifth year, the Township Development Conference was established to bring together property developers, urban planners, designers and executives from different countries to discuss issues relevant to township planning such as sustainability and waste management, to name a few.

Arch. Nati, an expert in green architecture, emphasized the advantages of promoting sustainable buildings for developing cities. He further explained that aside from reducing overall impact to the environment and to human health,

“green buildings are the key for property developers to winning financially, as they have been proven to be cost effective with reduced energy requirements within a development.”

With its flagship project, Primavera Residences, located in Uptown Cagayan de Oro, IDC has marked itself as first mover in ecofriendly buildings in emerging cities.

“We develop our projects in perfect spots where cost of living is lower and opportunities are higher. Also, one thing we consider first in locating our projects is the location and the kind of environment to make sure they complement the idea of green living, as what our advocacy stands for.”

Nati also propounded the importance of focusing its developments in emerging cities.

“Buildings in mega cities such as in Metro Manila, for example, will generally have smaller and smaller

units in the future because its land is very expensive and it has to be optimized. Putting up developments in cities with great potential is our strategy to also encourage other developers to follow our advocacy, thus eventually helping these cities become more economically competitive. This

could help break the stereotype of how markets look at small cities.”

IDC is a designdriven developer internationally recognized for its commitment in sustainable development. The company received several awards for its flagship project, Primavera Residences, in

Cagayan de Oro: among others, the Leadership in Green Building Award given by the Philippine Green Building Council (PHILGBC) and the Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies (EDGE) as the First Completed Condominium Project in East Asia, a global green

certification given

by IFC-World Bank.

IDC is currently constructing its second project, Primavera City, also located in Uptown Cagayan de Oro. The company is also looking forward to breaking ground in Luzon this year with its third project, Miramonti, located in Santo Tomas, Batangas.

THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER The apostle Judas, probably also called Thaddeus or Jude, being a brother of James and Jesus, started as a fervent follower of Christ. Then, suddenly he changed. He felt that Christ didn’t satisfy his worldly expectations. The church, like Christ, is always loved by its true followers and is always hated by its apostates. Till today - no matter what belief you are in... .

Judas didn’t leave the apostolic community to become a Pharisee or a critic of Christ.

He leaves to become a traitor! Such a traitor will always find fault or a misinterpretation of human teaching. Judas gathered reasons that he, himself, had heard and witnessed to justify his betrayal. Yes, we all also know such people who betray us and sometimes a whole mation.

A Jewish mob tried to throw Christ down a cliff, but nothing happened. Soldiers tried to arrest Him, but nothing happened. The Pharisees tried to to entrap Him to no effect.

It needed a friend -maybe a good friend! - to betray Him. He escaped from all, but not from the treason of a friend. “It would have been better for that man if he had not been born!” No such sentence was hurled, for example, to Pilate or Herod.

The lesson for all of us is very clear. A bad politician or one of our neighbors can be the foulest thing on earth. A bad pagan cannot be a 1/10 corrupt.

“Do not betray another man’s confidence!” the bible teaches us. But Judases can be found everywhere. Just as fire is not born from

snow, so is the seeker H ave M y Say after worldly honors not seeking heavenly ones. or have you ever seen the snow catches fire?

The maladroit politician named Judas betrays his voter and elector Klaus Doring thru beautiful soft promises while corrupting a whole nation.

The neighbor, who declares how much he loves his family while going on unhindered destroying the environment is also named Judas... .

Judas’ sins are really not rare. We commit it every day. Someone who have changed his ideals away from the ideals of the church and declares it to the world, anyone who leaves the church or the religious order and proclaims it to the world, “night had fallen on his soul”!

When Julius Caesar was being assisissinated what hurt him was not the stabs of Caius but the presence of his friend Brutus.

We might never know it, but we could be carrying on our lips the kiss of Judas or very ready to pay the thirty pieces of silver. +++ Email: doringklaus@gmail.com or follow me in Facebook, Twitter or Linkedin or visit www.germanexpatinthephilippines.blogspot. com or www.klausdoringsclassicslmusic. blogspot.com .

For the period, AboitizPower’s attributable net energy sold remained flat YoY, from 3,451 gigawatthours (GWh) to 3,448 GWh as the contribution of GMCP and the increase in hydro plants’ output were offset by the outages of Therma South, the lower dispatch of oil units, and lower steam supply affecting the Tiwi plant output as it continued to recover

from the effects of Typhoon Nina.

“We continue to leverage on our portfolio of renewable and thermal power plants, giving us the flexibility to respond to the needs of our customers and the market while assuring our customers of reliability of supply and our technical support,” said Antonio R.

Power Distribution On the back of higher margins, EBITDA for the distribution business increased by 9% YoY. Net income contribution increased 7% YoY for the first quarter of 2017, from P851 million to P908 million.

The group’s gross margin on a per kilowatthour basis for the period

increased to P1.59 from P1.46 in the first quarter of 2017. The increase came from improved margins as operating costs decreased due to the lower dispatch of Davao Light’s Bajada Power Plant versus the same period last year.

Further improving margins were better recoveries on purchased power costs.

AboitizPower’s attributable sales for the period was at 1,208 GWh, remaining close to flat compared to the same period last year.

“Our distribution units continue to grow, riding on the expanding economy, renewed confidence in our government and the continued influx of investments into our distribution areas,” Moraza noted.

Nominations for Seal of Good Education Governance now open Exemplary LGUs to receive tech packages from PLDT, Smart

Local government units are invited to join the inaugural search for cities and municipalities that have exerted outstanding efforts to deliver basic education to their constituents.

Recipients of the Synergeia Foundation’s Seal of Good Education Governance, to be named in September, will get incentive packages from PLDT and Smart Communications, worth up to P1.5 million each.

In determining the first batch of seal

recipients, a board of judges comprised of representatives from Synergeia, PLDT, Smart, and the Department of Education will evaluate how nominated LGUs have reinvented their local school boards and governing councils.

Judges will also check how the LGUs have involved their communities in enabling all children to go to school.

The locality must also have a high cohort survival rate (grade one

students must finish at least grade six) and a steadily improving performance in the national achievement test.

The Special Education Fund must also be used on activities that promote learning.

Application forms may be downloaded from www.synergeia.org.ph starting May 8.

Established in 2002, Synergeia is a coalition of individuals and organizations working closely with about 400 LGUs to help improve

the delivery of basic education to children.

The foundation intends to award the Seal of Good Education Governance to deserving LGUs every year.

PLDT and Smart will provide incentive packages depending on the chosen LGUs’ respective circumstances and needs. Among the possible incentives are the installation and maintenance of Wi-Fi hotspots in public areas, and the provision of InfoCast, a web-based

solution that will allow the LGUs to broadcast announcements and receive feedback via text message.

For LGUs in remote areas, there is the option to provide a satellitebased communication solution that provides voice, SMS, and data services.

Another incentive for LGUs in far-flung areas is the Smart School-in-a-Bag, which contains a solar panel to serve schools without electricity,

devices, curriculumbased educational content, teacher training, monitoring, and evaluation.

Included in the incentive package are personal development trainings for LGUs. “We are happy to support Synergeia’s efforts to encourage more LGUs to efficiently and effectively deliver basic education to Filipino children.

Elevate the journey with the new Nissan Urvan Premium

Nissan Philippines enters the premium van segment this 2017

N

issan Philippines Inc. (NPI) continues on its growth momentum as it closes off the first quarter of 2017 with a record 5,277 units sold, the highest performance for the brand since the year 2000. To sustain this performance, NPI enters a new segment this 2017 with the launch of the new Nissan Urvan Premium.

“The past year has truly been phenomenal for the brand. And we have been able to continue this performance, beating our own sales record in March, by selling 2,094 units.

Our core models have also performed well in the past quarter, especially the sales of our NV350 Urvan.” said Ramesh Narasimhan, NPI president and Managing Director “The NV350 Urvan sold a total of 1,651 units, accounting for 31% of our sales for the first quarter of the year. And now, we continue to grow the business by entering a new segment, with the launch of the Nissan Urvan Premium.”

Sophisticated Design At first glance, the new Nissan Urvan Premium gives off a striking appearance.

Design features such as a V-shaped angled strut grille, sharper head lamps, and dynamic character lines on the front and side adds to the stylishness of the new Nissan Urvan Premium. The

modern look of the vehicle is enhanced by the elimination of the side roof drip channel, as well as the rich surface expression around the wheel opening, coupled with a longer wheelbase, and a shortened overhand.

Inside, suedelike tricot fabric cover the new, individually mounted seats. Adding a touch of class to the new Nissan Urvan Premium is the improved headlining fabric that comes in gray, suedefinished material.

Complementing these premium design touches is a two-tone dashboard that give the impression of a wider, roomier front cabin.

Premium Comfort The new Nissan Urvan Premium is designed with the comfort of both passenger and driver in mind. Its wider and higher body, measuring at 5,230mm in length and 2,285mm in height, allows customers to take on long drives with

ample leg and head room.

A new seating configuration, which features four rows of seats in the rear cabin, also makes the new Nissan Urvan Premium capable of carrying up to 15 passengers, while still having enough space to store luggage. And to keep everything cool and comfortable, 14 individual air conditioning vents are positioned along each seat of the new Nissan Urvan Premium rear cabin.

Enhanced Convenience Entering and exiting the new Nissan Urvan Premium has also become easier for passengers, as it

features an extended sliding door opening height of 1,580mm, as well as a Door Closure Assist. The Door Closure Assist allows passengers to close the vehicle firmly without exerting too much effort. Adding to the convenience are a rear step board, rear ingress/egress grips and a hand rail upon entering the vehicle.

Powerful Drive Powering the Nissan Urvan Premium is a hightorque 2.5-litre turbo diesel engine engine, the same powerplant used in the awardwinning Nissan Navara pick up. With a torque of 356 Nm, this leads to a faster, smoother take-off

and acceleration and greater power on tap.

Enhancing the ride are safety features such as dual front airbags and seatbelts, load tensioning valve, anti-lock brake system, brake assist, child safety lock, and front fog lamps.

Convenience in Ownership Aside from design enhancements, the convenience of the new Nissan Urvan Premium extends to ownership. The new Nissan Urvan Premium’s cost of maintenance is significantly lower than other vans in the same segment.

It is also the first in the industry to offer warranty coverage for business use,

allowing customers to have their vehicle serviced for the first 3 years, or 100,000kms whichever comes first, at no additional cost.

Designed with an eye for comfort, convenience and stylish good looks, the new Nissan Urvan Premium promises to take every journey higher.

The new Nissan Urvan Premium will be available in Manual transmission

by June 2017, in all Nissan dealerships nationwide. It will be available with an SRP of Php 1,650,000 and will come in Alpine White, Black Obsidian, and Tiger Eye Brown. For more details, visit www. nissan.ph.

Herbalife Nutrition Study Reveals Alarming Lack of Nutrition, Hydration and Exercise Among Adults Herbalife, a global nutrition company, has released the findings from its Asia Pacific Balanced Nutrition Survey1, which focuses on shedding light on nutrition and health habits, behaviors and attitudes of consumers aged 18 and above. The survey is an element of the seventh Herbalife Asia Pacific Wellness Tour, seeking to inspire consumers to adopt balanced nutrition habits and reinforce its impact to long-term health and wellbeing.

According to survey findings, 8 in 10 (78%) of Filipino consumers are eating less than half of the daily recommended serving of fruits and vegetables, 4 in 10 (41%) do not drink enough water, and more than half (59%) do not get enough exercise.

While 6 in 10 (60%) of consumers in the Philippines believe that ensuring their body gets the sufficient nutrients to function optimally was the greatest motivator to adopting a balanced diet, modern, fastpaced lifestyles make it increasingly challenging to incorporate healthy nutrition habits into daily lives.

The study revealed that 6 in 10 (57%) respondents in the Philippines found having a daily balanced nutrition approach to be challenging, citing the lack of time, money, and motivation to be the top three obstacles preventing them from having a healthier lifestyle.

PVB inaugurates renovated Davao branch & WWII history wall DAVAO CITY – Philippine Veterans Bank is all set to inaugurate its renovated Branch on May 5, 2017 in time for the 72nd anniversary of the Liberation of Davao last May 3, 2017. The Bank’s invited guests include Mayor Sarah Duterte, Vice Mayor Paulo Duterte and Atty. Sonia S. De Los Reyes – Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Regional Director. On the side of the Bank, PVB Chairman & CEO Roberto F. De Ocampo, OBE and President and COO Nonilo C.

Cruz will lead the inauguration rites.

The renovated branch is part of the Bank’s rebranding program following its “Bank with a Heart” campaign. The centerpiece is a World War II History Wall – 4 panels that tell the story of World War II in the Philippines with several of the panels dedicated to local WWII historical events in Davao. The branch also has two (2) display cases that contain artifacts, paraphernalia, and memorabilia from the war which combined with the history wall,

make a visit to PVB Davao almost like a trip to the museum.

The history wall also has a panel with a display monitor that continuously screens WW2 documentaries and photos.

PVB Davao, located along PVB Building CM Recto Street, Davao City, also sports a new façade with a large “V” that is not only a nod to the bank’s stockholders – the over 300,000 Filipino World War II veterans – but also a symbol of the aggressive outlook that the bank has of the

city. This aggressiveness is easily dispelled once inside the branch as the interiors convey a sense of comfort and

homeliness.

Also expected to attend are the Officials of Veterans Federation of the Philippines, the

Philippine Veterans Affairs Office, surviving World War II veterans of Davao.

Just recently, Ms. Marinela “Girlie” Neri Velez, President of Paterno Velez Foundation & Founder of the Marinela Neri Velez Strings Program, met with Bäcker and Vidmar to explore the possibility of lending their knowledge and expertise with the Misamis Oriental

General Comprehensive High School (MOGCHS) to which the foundation has donated 41 musical string instruments.

The Marinela Neri Velez Strings Program was originally a 10 year program meant to put together a community based strings orchestra from the public and private schools of Cagayan de Oro through a local school, but when that school opted to proceed in another direction, Ms. Velez moved the program to MOGCHS. Bäcker has proposed that the foundation link the Marinela Velez Strings Program at MOGCHS through a memorandum of agreement with the Liceo Music Conservatory for this purpose, with the ultimate goal of expanding the base at the grassroots of classically trained musicians from which the three institutions would take their pick of the best to establish a Kagay-anon Community

Already, the Liceo Music Conservatory is dreaming of setting up a musical school and conservatory with a curriculum similar to what Backer set up in Bonn as soon as possible.

Thus, Bäcker appointment as director of the Liceo Music Conservatory with Vidmar and Golez joining him in the starstudded faculty, and a core of gifted Filipino musician-instructors sharing the dream and vision to bring classical music back to its lofty pedestal where it was previously held in reverential respect and admiration by the Kagay-anons.

“Liceo believes in the formation of the total person, and music provides the mental framework of excellence for the mind, preparing them for any field they wish to pursue in the future,” Golez stressed.

Hopefully, should the link between the Marinela Velez Strings

Program at MOGCHS and the Liceo Music Conservatory push through, the latter would ensure a steady stream of students who can pursue a career in music at the Liceo. The establishment of the community orchestra would also serve the Liceo Music Conservatory since it would need an orchestra where its students can hone their craft to become world class musicians.

Eventually, the Kagay-anon Community Orchestra is envisioned to perform in public events with other Cagayan de Oro-based choirs and bands, such as the Xavier University Glee Club, CU Glee Club, the Tanggu Drum band of Oro Christian Grade School, indigenous music ensembles like the Waway Linsahay Saway and the Talaandig Republic, and dance troupes from the various schools and community based groups like Kagayan Performing Arts.

Must-try: Oriental Style Buffet at Kave Restaurant

By Irene Dayo of itsirenedayo.com

I

f I have to mention one form of interest that mostly Kagay-anons have in similar, I will take the love of food. The boosting number of dining venues inside the center hub of Northern Mindanao is evidence to that. Each establishment has developed signature dishes that quickly clicked the taste of the masses, making all of it a go-to places for residents and tourists alike.

Kave Restaurant inside the standing solid-gold Limketkai Luxe Hotel is one of the top restaurants in the city, but what made it set apart from others is its unique offerings especially their themed buffet, enticing diners to come back and once again indulge in its one-of-a-kind food experience, with its delicious dishes, from main courses - Roasted Duck to Shrimp Tempura to its desserts – such as Mandarin Cheesecake, Oatmeals Bars and Ube Custard, and everything tasty in between.

Their Saturday’s noon time gastronomical treat is the Oriental Style Buffet.

It is served from 11:30 in the morning up to 2:00 in the afternoon.

I personally tried it out with my friend Vian, and our eyes are popping out on all of our favorites in just one venue (Check the pictures along with this article).

Spicy Grilled Chicken BBQ

Roast Pork Belly Stuffed with Lemongrass

Tanigue Fillet with Tofu and Tausi

Kave Restaurant’s eat-all-you-can is indeed for all occasions.

Might it be for celebrating one’s special day, a promotion at work or simply taking lunch with family right after a heavy morning at work, it is worth every peso. And simply because Limketkai Luxe Hotel and Kave Restaurant love its customers, Oriental Style Buffet only costs P698.00 per adult. For kiddos, Kave Restaurant only charge less amount compared to regular.

Other than lunch time’s Oriental flavor, Kave Restaurant is serving all-seafood buffet by dinner time, 6PM to 10PM every Friday, while during Saturdays, it is a Mediterranean buffet dinner. Sunday’s brunch then is all-Asian food, served from 11AM to 2PM. It is exciting, isn’t it? It is a feast every weekend inside Kave Restaurant of Limketkai Luxe Hotel, perfect to celebrate the end of a very busy and stressful week.

Oatmeal Bars

Ube Custard

Erratum: As published in the BusinessWeek Mindanao Lifestyle May 5th issue, the author would like to correct that Seafood, Oriental, Mediterranean and All-Asian buffet at Kave Restaurant is served only on specific days and time stipulated in this article, only breakfast buffet is served daily. We apologized for this error.
