Tampakan village off limits due to ground cracks By Allen V. Estabillo
GENERAL Santos City–– The Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) in Region 12 has declared as “off-limits” to residents a portion of an upland village in Tampakan town due to the confirmed presence of ground fissures or cracks that might trigger some major landslides. Constancio Paye Jr., MGB Region 12 director, said Friday they have recommended the immediate closure of areas within Sitio Campo Kilot in Barangay Pula Bato where the ground cracks were found to ensure the safety of residents in case landslides will occur in the area. He said joint inspection teams from the MGB-12 and the South Cotabato Provincial Environment Management Office (PEMO) have already visited the area twice since the ground cracks were first reported by local residents late last month. “Based on their assessment, there are some tension cracks that emerged at a portion of a mountain there. (But) these are considered as normal cracks that have developed due
to natural causes,” he said in a radio interview. A geology website noted that tension cracks “may develop in a slope when the inclination angle of the slip surface is steep and when the sliding mass is sitting on a weak foundation material.” Paye explained that the tension cracks found in Pula Bato might have developed because of the condition of the area’s terrain, the impact of gravity changes and the heavy rains in the area in the past weeks. The official said the area should be sealed off from local residents as portions of the mountains where the tension cracks have developed might eventually give way and cause some landslides. Paye said their inspection team assessed all possible areas that could be affected by the landslides and noted that they are so far clear of settlement or human activity. “The area is quite far from the established communities there and our team made sure that there are no properties or persons situated at the vicinity of
the affected areas,” he said. The Barangay council of Pula Bato earlier reported that some cracks measuring about a meter wide have started to emerge in portions of Campo Kilot following several days of sporadic heavy rains in the area. The cracks were found around 300 meters away from an illegal banlas or
sluice mining site in Sitio Campo Kilot, which is part of the mining tenement of foreign-backed Sagittarius Mines Inc. (SMI). Banlas mining, which is considered a highlydestructive mining method, involves the pouring of large amounts of water using high-pressure water jets on a mountain’s surface to extract the rocks containing
the gold ore, and then pan them with mercury. The use of the illegal mining method, which was first uncovered in a mining village in T’boli town, has increased in the last several years in several small-scale mining areas in Tampakan. Reports said the banlas mining operations in Tampakan are centered in Campo Kilot, where several
hectares of a mountain in the area were already destroyed based on an aerial survey conducted by the provincial government of South Cotabato. Two years ago, four alleged banlas mining workers were killed after a major landslide hit a portion of an illegal mining site in Campo Kilot. (Allen V. Estabillo/MindaNews)

Farmers in R-12 urged to plant organic rice for foreign markets
By Bong S. Sarmiento of MindaNews
KORONADAL City––Farmers in Region 12 were encouraged to plant more organic rice for markets abroad as the area shipped anew another volume to a foreign countr y, the third time in less than two months. The Don Bosco MultiP u r p o s e C o o p e r at i v e (DBMPC), with the help of the Department of Agriculture, recently exported again 3.3 metric tons of organic
colored rice to Hong Kong. The shipment on June 16 comprises 1.3 MT of black rice, 1.16 MT of red rice and .89 MT of brown rice, said Romano Laurilla, DBMPC general manager. “Global demand for organic rice is growing as more people are becoming health conscious,” he said. It was the second time that the cooperative shipped organic rice to Hong Kong. The first was sent to the United Arab Emirates. Organic farming does not utilize chemical pesti-
cides and fertilizers during cultivation; hence aside from being healthy, it also lessens farm production costs. Laurilla urged farmers to shift to organic rice farming because this variety would also give them higher income. He noted that the cooperative buys organic rice varieties at P20 per kilo, P3 higher than the buying price of non-organic rice varieties in the commercial market. The regional Agriculture department and the coop-
erative have been working for the expansion of organic rice planting areas in the provinces of North Cotabato and South Cotabato. Amalia Datukan, DA-12 director, said the agency is keen on helping rice farmers penetrate foreign markets. The first shipment by DBMPC to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates involving 15 metric tons took place last May 6 and the second batch of three MT was shipped out on May 15. DA Assistant Secretary Dante Delima led the sendoff of the Hong Kong shipment—involving organic black, red and brown rice— at the Tefasco Wharf in Panacan, Davao City. Delima, concurrently the National Rice Program director, earlier said the exportation of premium organic rice “is a milestone achievement for the country since after 40 long years, the country is now again competing with other exporting countries.” “Since the country cannot compete with exportation of rice by volume, we can compete by exporting premium rice that only selected countries can produce because of certain agri-climatic condition that the crop requires,” Delima said in a statement.

TAGUM CITY, Philippines – While the rest of the travelers packed up their bags and travel to renowned beach resorts-cum-summer destinations, others have chosen to travel some local scenic spots to be isolated from the noise of the metropolis where the usual booze and end-of-the-year parties happen. Just an hour and thirty minutes away from Davao City, an itch for unplanned trip or a weekend getaway is likely ideal for travelers who want to have a cheap day-tour, a classy and luxurious beach escapade, a trek along the lush green man-made forest or even a cruise along the cool and gentle rivers. All these and more are Tagum City’s hidden attractions that are to be discovered by local and foreign tourists alike. The city offers a mix of fun, relaxing, fascinating and less expensive eco-adventure trips from upland to coastal shores. From a rustic town to a progressive metropolis in the province of Davao del Norte, the city has a lot to offer from its colorful festivals, vibrant multi-cultural events, and man-made tourist spots aiming to be the premiere tourist destination in the North, next to Davao City. The next tourist capital Tagum City, the capital city of Davao del Norte province is strategically located at the Northern portion of Southern Mindanao. It serves as a vital economic crossroads for the entire Davao Region. Beyond the notion of being a predominantly agricultural metropolis, this progressive city is becoming a competitive metropolis that is able to promote its local tourist spots to audience from the global stage. “Tagum City continues to improve its local tourism industry to achieve its ambition to be the next tourism capital in Southern Mindanao,” said Edwin Lacquiste, City Information Officer II. He added that “to achieve such ambition, we must boost our local economy and improve the city’s infrastructure, trade and commerce to gain investors as we protect and conserve the city’s natural attractions.”

“We Grow Minds” TESDA programs address employment concerns, generation for underemployed and ‘needing skills’ By CHENG ORDONEZ, NewsCon Director
BWM MEDIA CENTER, Cagayan de Oro – The Technical Education Skills Development Authority (TESDA) in the region has continued to successfully embark on schemes to measure the impact on regional development in both training and employment, said Engr. Edgar Sales, OIC-regional director of TESDA 10 during the weekly BWM Media Center’s News Conference (NEWSCON), held last June 21, here. Dir. Sales was accompanied by Ms. Kotie Bax, TESDA 10 Regional Operations Division chief, and Ms. Honey Analou Dona, TESDA 10 SMAC Focal. TESDA, is an agency of the government under the Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE) responsible for managing and supervising technical education and skills development. Dir. Sales identified the measures as (1) Private Education Student Financial Assistance (PESFA) Program, (2) Training for Work Scholarship Program (TWSP) and (3) Cash for Training Program (CTP). PESFA Program has been established through Section 8 of R.A. No. 8545, otherwise known as the Expanded Government Assistance to Students and Teachers in Private Education
(GASTPE) Act. PESFA offers educational grants to qualified and deserving college freshmen both in degree and non-degree courses. Engr. Sales said the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd) and TESDA handle the administration of the program for degree and non-degree courses, respectively. The program seeks to extend financial assistance to marginalized but deserving students in post secondary non-degree TVET courses; promote technical vocational education and training (TVET); contribute to the development of a competent skilled workforce; and assist private institutions in their development efforts by assuring a steady supply of enrollees to their course offerings. TWSP is a facility to provide the necessary supply to address the skills demand of
ENGR. EDGAR A. SALES
the industries. Specifically, it aims to provide skills and competencies to job seekers through appropriate training programs that are directly connected to existing jobs for immediate employment. It also seeks to empower private education and training institutions to offer relevant training programs that meet job requirements.
“Remember that we focus on food, shelter and clothing, which are the basic needs, and our role is to address employment concerns and generation,” Dir. Sales said. To realize the objectives of this program, TESDA works with other government agencies to provide the funds for either full or partial scholarship grants to high
school graduates, those employed but ready for a career change, underemployed or unemployed, with or without experience and ready to undergo training in the selected priority sectors and other sectors with identified highly critical skills requirements namely: Agribusiness, Cyberservices, Aviation, Metals Engineering, Construction (Heavy equipment Operators); Health and Social Services (Massage Therapists, Spa Therapists, Pinoy Hilot, Biomedical Equipment Technician); Hotel and Restaurant Management (Barista and Cooks/Chef); Support Programs (National TVET Trainors/Assessors Qualification Program, Pre Assessment of CCAs and Medical Transcriptionists); and Special Programs (Special employment Program for Mindanao, Disabled Soldiers (DND), Livelihood or Training Program for OFWs) On the other hand, Dir. Sales spells out TWSP through the program’s two objectives: (1) To provide skills and competencies to job seekers through appropriate training programs that are directly connected to existing jobs for immediate employment and (2) To empower private education and training institutions to offer relevant training programs that meet job requirements. TWSP is a joint project of government agencies spearheaded by TESDA, DoLE and Office of the Presidential Adviser for Job Creation (OPAJC), private sector organizations, industry associations, labor unions and public and private education and training institutions. “While TESDA focuses
on education, it also addresses employment generation through programs and services. However, there are parameters that we have to consider. These are ‘working age population’ and ‘post secondary’ in our effort to address both employment generation and the needs of those living under the poverty line, the underemployed and those needing skills,” Dir. Sales said. TWSP, he said, is a program that should provide work immediately after graduation or six months after, even as it helps jobless individuals to go abroad. Lately, 14 people managed to leave for Australia through the said program. As for CTP, some 4,695 slots have been provided for Region 10, including the areas of Bukidnon, Misamis Oriental and Misamis Occidental while the areas of Camiguin and Lanao del Norte are still undergoing processing. At least 68 schools in Misamis Oriental are TESDA-accredited with some 6,000 annual graduates. Also at the NEWSCON were Cyril Ranile, TESDA coordinator for 1st District, and Nanny James Munalem, admin officer of International Labor Force Mastery, Inc./ Skills Mastery Institute. Other topics discussed during last Friday’s NEWSCON were the following: Role of TESDA in providing employment to returning OFWs economically displaced as a result of global economic crisis; major activities/events which TESDA is undertaking relative to the TESDA anniversary celebration on August 2013; and Holcim Galing Mason Awards.

Villar pushes gradual yet sure clean-up of Laguna Lake CALAMBA City, Laguna -– Senator-elect Cynthia Villar disclosed that the government has conducted an extensive study to address the problem of flooding in the Laguna lakeshore towns and coastal areas brought about by rise in water level of the Laguna Lake. In an inter view with newsmen here after the main program celebrating national hero Dr. Jose Rizal’s 150th birth anniversary, the newlyelected senator expressed her support to whatever possible alternatives resulting from the studies to ease flooding
in the lake’s coastal towns and cities. Of Laguna’s 25 towns, four component cities and a science and nature city of Los Baños, 19 localities were flooded at the onslaught of the southwest monsoon Habagat last year. Owing to the botched dredging project in the Laguna Lake, Villar said “in the meantime, we have to do whatever little ways to solve the problem on flooding.” President Benigno Aquino III scrapped the dredging project following reports that the multi-billion consortium
by the foreign firm has put
government spending to
waste. Reports have it that the excavated and dredged earth and silt that are dumped along the Laguna Lake coastlines are deposited back to the lake bed by run-off waters and erosion. Pending the results of the flood control study on the Laguna Lake, Senator-elect Villar proposed for a cheaper alternative yet the gradual “extrication by backhoes” and excavation process to lessen the impact of flooding in the areas. Although mulling for Senate’s legislative measures related to the Laguna Lake
concerns, Villar opted to take a “slowly-but-surely approach” to the problem. She shared her experience on the Las Piñas River rehabilitation project undertaking where they used the backhoe and other equipment to unclog and clean the waterway with the water lilies and revive the river. Villar also told media here their optimism that the Supreme Court will grant their petition to save the Las Piñas bird sanctuary from damage in the wake of the proposed Manila Bay reclamation project.

3rd Run 2 Plant 4 Greenin Philippines Malaysian government set on June 29 to attract 50T participants calls for regional CEBU City--Some 50,000 participants from all over Cebu are expected to join the 3rd Run 2 Plant 4 Greenin Philippines on June 29. The event, spearheaded by the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (Rafi), features a 5K distance run. It will not be a competitive run, but runners reaching the winners’ podium at the finish line will instead be asked to plant a tree. This event will be held simultaneously in the 40 municipalities and component cities of the province of Cebu. This year, Naga City and the Municipality of Cordova will anchor the central events. Rafi Integrated Development executive director Marge
Gravador said they want to raise public awareness in relation to climate change and disaster risk reduction program through running and planting trees. ”This is a unique approach because this is also advocating for good health in commemoration of the World Environment Day,” Gravador said. This year’s run supports the ridge of Naga City to reef of Cordova perspective in biodiversity enhancement that takes into account enhancing not only upland vegetation but also coastal areas. According to Rafi, the coasts and oceans have experienced severe irreversible depletion resulting to the reduction of fish.
That is why they will also be planting mangroves in Cordova. In Naga, participants will run a five-kilometer distance from Naga City Hall, to the 10-hectare planting site in Barangay Tuyan. In Cordova, participants will run from the Municipal Hall to the two-hectare mangrove site where 20,000 mangroves will be planted. The Cebu Provincial Government, on the other hand, issued an executive order mandating the implementation and institutionalization of Run 2 Plant 4 Greenin Philippines throughout the province. The Department of Interior and Local Government has also issued a memorandum
Pacquiao’s help sought against global warming LEGAZPI City--In a bid to strengthen the fight against the adverse impact of global warming, Albay Gov. Joey Salceda has asked world boxing icon Rep. Manny “Pacman” Pacquio to help him in the global battle against climate change. Salceda, UN senior global champion on disaster risk reduction management for local government units, urged Pacquiao during the coaching program on legislation and governance in Sarangani Province, to embark on another global fight -- which is against climate change. “World boxing champion Manny ‘Pacman’ Pacquio should embark on another global fight, this time, against climate change and its adverse impacts on local communities -- especially of the third world countries,” the governor said during his presentation of the proposed strategy for Gensan-Sarangani called “Sergeants and Generals.” The Albay governor was one of the lecturers during the coaching program for Pacquiao, elected for the second time in the lone district of the province; his wife, Jinkee, who was elected
as vice governor, and other elected provincial officials. “In return for coaching Pacquiao and wife Jinkee on legislative and executive matters, the boxing champion has agreed to help me in the fight against climate change and disaster management to attain our pivotal goal of zero-casualty in times of natural calamity,” Salceda said. The coaching activity, dubbed as Mentoring and Coaching Program, was sponsored by the Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP), which tapped Salceda for his “legislative and executive expertise.” The DAP program, requested by the Sarangani officials, is designed to provide extensive support during the first year of their term. The sessions, conducted since June 18, saw Salceda lecturing Pacquiao and other newly elected officials of the province on Strategic Human Resource Management and Long-Term Development Planning in pursuit of better governance. DAP’s Executive and Legislative Coaching Program is conducted in partnership with the Ateneo
School of Government and Bicol University-Jesse M. Robredo Institute of Local Governance. Salceda’s management style and pioneering ideas in local governance have steered Albay province towards economic development and global recognition. The Albay governor also provided Pacquiao’s team extensive inputs on pressing matters such as the global fight against global warming, climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction on which he has been a pioneering strategist and global campaigner. He also convinced Pacquiao to start building his house in Misibis Bay Resort in Cagraray Island, Bacacay town, a tourist pride of Albay and the Almasorca -- the tourism alliance of Albay, Masbate, Sorsogon and Catanduanes provinces -- before the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit in 2015 begins. Misibis Bay is a fivehectare luxury island resort in Cagraray Island, wherein some of the sessions of the upcoming APEC Summit are set to be held in 2015. (PNA)
advising local government units to participate in the event to support the agency’s billion-tree program. The event partnered with schools in regions outside of the Visayas with the support of the Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines (CEAP). Davao del Sur will be participating for the second time along with other participants from Nabunturan in Compostela Valley, St. Mary’s Academy in Tagum, Davao del Norte, Sacred Heart High School in Iligan, and Notre Dame University in North Caotabato.

cooperation against haze KUALA LUMPUR -- Malaysian government on Friday called for regional cooperation against the hazardous air that shrouds the part of its country and Singapore recently. “It is important that ASEAN nations work together in a spirit of co-operation to tackle this problem,” said an official statement. Five areas recorded “Very Unhealthy” air quality by Friday evening, according to the Department of Environment, as the southern part of Malaysia was among the worst hit by the annual haze, largely attributed to the smoke from forest fires in
Sumatra, Indonesia brought by the southwestern monsoon winds. At least several hundred schools were temporarily shut down due to health concerns. Malaysian government said Natural Resources and Environment Minister G. Palanivel will travel to Indonesia and meet Indonesian government officials to discuss ways to address the issue. Meanwhile, the government also urged Malaysian-owned companies operating in Indonesia to abide by all local laws and regulations, ensuring “not contributing to environmental degradation.” (PNA/Xinhua)

‘Why do bad things happen to good people?’ THINK a minute. Why do bad things happen to good people? Why does that kind, honest person who does the right thing get fired from his job? And why does that evil crook become rich and get away with lying and cheating? Maybe you’ve asked yourself: “If God is so good, then why doesn’t He do something?” We feel like the little girl who wanted a big new bicycle. But her father told her no because she had to wait until she was bigger. The girl got angry and said, “Then I want a new Daddy!” Sometimes when we don’t agree with God we act like that little girl who can’t trust her father, even though He knows much more than her. He understands that she’s not ready for a big bicycle. But she just thinks her fa-

We don’t believe what God is doing is for our happiness, or that He’s even isn’t listening to us. But He is. In fact, He’s answering needs in your life you don’t even know about! As one wise person prayed: “God, don’t punish me by giving me everything I ask for.” You see, many times we simply don’t know what will make us happy for
the rest of our lives. We just want to be comfortable and happy for the moment right now. But God is trying to help us and make sure we are happy forever. So He’s trying to fix the bigger problem of our heart and relationship with Him our Maker. Does that mean Jesus doesn’t care about our suffering now? No, it’s just the opposite. Jesus cares very much! He knows exactly what it feels like to be hurt and suffer unfairly for something
you didn’t do. When God the Son Himself, Who was completely innocent, took all the pain and penalty for our wrongs and sins, He cried out to God the Father: “Why have you left me?” Even Jesus Himself, after He became a human being, did not get the answer He wanted right away. Was it fair? No. But it was God’s mercy and love for us and our only hope, since God the Son’s death was the only way He could forgive you and me to give us a new life. So why not put your life in the hands of your Maker Who loves you that much? Decide today to start living for Him His way, knowing that everything He does in your life is for your permanent happiness and success. Just Think a Minute.
Aspiration gone awry: a case of ‘trademark infringement’
A lighting brand that was never qualified to be a Superbrand and will never be, but aspires to be, despite a court action, is what trademark infringement is all about. Sometime in 2005, Superbrand Marketing International, Inc. (SMI) published its Volume V. Akari, which produces electrical lighting products, aspired to be awarded as a “Superbrand.” It was of the impression they Harry Tambuatco signed up to be a Superbrand only to realize they signed on to a bogus corporation not authorized by SMI. In fact, the very same group that duped Akari was the defendant in a court case filed in Hong Kong by Superbrands Ltd. which settled in a compromise agreement wittingly. Interestingly enough, realizing that their lighting brand was never registered in the Superbrands program, Akari nevertheless insisted on using the international award seal for close to six years, though it never really qualified to be a Superbrands. When finally (and officially) invited to participate, Akari decided to decline the invitation while slyly and
Special Gospel of the day: Mark10:28-31(June23, 2013-Sunday)Mark 10:2831-Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.

Ephesians 6:8-Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of
silently removing from the marketing shelves its packaging, which showed the international Superbrands award seal. This must have been a costly strategy. Instead of legitimizing its use of the Superbrands trademark, this company instead dealt with a forked tongue. While it is almost unaffordable to participate in the Superbrands program for most, brands should never advertise that they are a Philippine Superbrand when they simply don’t quality. The perennial question we ask is, “Do you have what it takes to be a Superbrand?” To this date the brand was never authorized to use the award seal. Nevertheless, they used it for six long years, duping the public into thinking that they are a Superbrand. In fact, there is a pending case with the Intellectual Property Office against this lighting brand for trademark infringement and unfair competition. The brand was never in any of the biennial books published by Superbrands since Volume V (2005 to present day) nor in any of the Certificate Award events. It was never invited to any formal gala Tribute night, where the qualified Superbrands were formally awarded with their trophies. It is interesting to note how brands persist in unfair case | page 8
Follow me Biblical reflection Bro. Edcel L. Closas the Lord, whether [he be] bond or free. This is the consoling statements of Jesus Christ to His disciples that all of them will receive rewards for following Him and “submitting their lives for God’s glory.” Like Paul attested of his rewards for sacrificing in preaching God to the people. 2 Timothy 4:6-8-For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure
is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. Can you sacrifice for the glory of God? Mark 8:34and when he had called the
people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and “follow me.” Are you carrying your own cross?

Mining project in Surigao to go full blast
P
By BONG S. SARMIENTO, MindaNews
HILEX Mining Corp. is spending P5 to 8 billion this year for the exploration and development works at its Silangan project in Surigao del Norte, businessman Manuel V. Pangilinan said on Friday.
Pangilinan told reporters after the annual stockholders’ meeting of the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. that the Silangan project is on track for its targeted commercial production in 2017. “At the moment, we’re building a decline, which is the most important step [for the mining project’s commercial operation],” said Pangilinan, who also chairs Philex. T he m i n i ng met hod we’ll use is block caving, an underground method similar to the Padcal project in Itogon, Benguet and not open-pit method like the Tampakan project in South Cotabato, the businessman said. The controversia l Tampakan project, which straddles the provinces of Sout h Cotabato, Su lta n
Kudarat and Daval del Sur, is being hounded by the open-pit ban imposed by the South Cotabato provincial government. Ph i le x h a s a m i nor interest at the Tampakan project through the stake of Australian firm Indophil Resources NL. Majority of the controlling equity at the Tampakan project is owned by the merged Glencor Xstrata plc. Last year, Philex was fined by the government with at least P1 billion after Padcal’s tailings pond leaked. Pangilinan said the total cost to bring the Silangan project into commercial operation would amount to US$1 billion. Last year, Philex spent s o m e P10 b i l l i o n f o r exploration and development works at the Silangan project, he added.

Pangilinan noted that the ores at the Silangan project will be mined using drilling and explosives to break the rocks into smaller pieces. The Silangan project combines the development of the Boyongan and Bayugo deposits, which comprise gold, copper and silver. As of Ju ly 2011, t he combined measured and indicated mineral resource
for Boyongan is 273 million tons of 0.52 percent copper and 0.72 grams per ton (g/t) gold and, for Bayugo, 125 million tons of 0.66 percent copper and 0.66 g/t gold, a company study showed. In February 2009, Philex consolidated its interest i n Si la nga n projec t by purchasing the remaining 50 percent equity interest held by Anglo American Exploration
BV and Anglo American Exploration (Philippines) Inc. for a consideration of $55 million. The project is covered by Mineral Production Sharing Agreement 149-99-XIII and Exploration Permit XII-03. The portal development for the Silangan project started in April 2011 while the first blast was done on Aug. 10, 2011, the company said.

“We c a n’t a f ford to pursue agriculture livelihood projects without the support of the government,” he added. A b o u t 71 m e m b e r s of S OL E DK I , he s a id , will become part of the organization’s test group for the coconut plantation project they are putting up in Kalagangan with an area of over a hundred hectares. Catawanan said they have worked with the Philippine Coconut Authority (PCA) bot h for f i na ncia l a nd technical assistance. SOLEDKI is composed of 12 communities. In 2003, the tribe’s claim to at least 5,000 hectares of ancestral domain was granted as part of the Certificate of Ancestral D om a i n Tit le (C A D T ) awarded to the Federation
of Matigsalug-Manobo Tribal Councils (Femmatrics). Despite the grant, they had been stuck with poverty, Catawanan said in an earlier interview. He added that the tribe still struggles to use their resources to make both ends meet. But C at awa na n s a id t hey won’t give up a nd have pursued discussions with members on how the communit y cou ld move forward. Earlier this year, he said with the help of friends, they were able to be in contact with the PCA. The PCA has scheduled to conduct initial meeting and technical training with the tribe starting today June 19 until tomorrow in the area.

Davao airport governing body eyed By CARINA L CAYON Contributor
DAVAO City -- The National Economic Development Authority (NEDA-XI) has recommended support for the immediate passage of House Bill 6693, an Act creating the Davao International Airport Authority (DIAA) to administer and operate the F. Bangoy International Airport (FBIA). NEDA-XI, secretariat to the Regional Development Council (R DC-X I), said e st abl i sh i ng t he DI A A would redound to a more efficient and competitive administration and management of the Davao International Airport (DIA). Strengthening the role of DIA as the transportation and logistics hub in Mindanao has also been espoused in the current development and physical framework plans of the Davao Region, said acting RDC-XI Secretary Miguel Herrera. Herrera ra ised t he r e c om m e n d a t i on a f t e r presenting some specific a nd gener a l com ment s gat hered from memberagencies of RDC-XI, relative to the provisions in HB 6693 authored by Davao City 2nd district Congresswoman Mylene Garcia-Albano at the 15th Congress. T h e c o m m e nt s a n d recommendations were laid down before members of the RDC-XI’s Development Administration Committee XI during the 2nd quarter meeting on June 11 at the NEDA-XI regional office. RDC-XI vice chair and NEDA-XI regional director Maria Lourdes Lim said they will ask Congresswoman Garcia-Albano to convene with the RDC-XI to discuss t h e r e c om m e n d a t i on s , emphasizing that the Bill has to be refined before the opening of the 16th Congress. On the same meeting, DAC -R D C X I me mb e r Davao Cit y Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (DCCCII) representing the private sector, presented a rejoinder reiterating the need to fast track the proposed establishment of DIAA.

Claveria town to receive Korean-assisted project THE long awaited corn processing complex (CPC) granted by the Korean government is now within the reach of the corn farmers in the municipality of Claveria as the turn-over ceremony of the project will be conducted on June 24, 2013 at barangay Malagana in the municipality. The CPC is in support to the government’s bid to produce qual-
ity corn and reduce postharvest losses with project cost amounting to P 63.86 million. The project comprises of integrated postharvest facilities, multi-purpose warehouse and a community center, established under the Rural Development Project in the Philippines through a joint funding by the Government of the Philippines and the
Government of Korea. Moreso, the realization of the CPC also supports DA’s goals on poverty alleviation by providing better market access for local corn producers and opening employment opportunities which will strengthen the local corn industry in the region and will spur sustainable economic development.
With the construction of the CPC, the local farmers will be able to save time on drying, hauling and transportation expenses during the marketing of their produce. The turn-over ceremony will be spearheaded by Sang-Wook Rong, International Deputy Director on Development and Cooperation Division of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural
Affairs of the Republic of Korea. Also expected to grace the event to represent the Government of the Philippines are DA-Assistant Secretary Edilberto M. de Luna, DA-10 Regional Executive Director Lealyn A. Ramos, Misamis Oriental Governor Oscar S. Moreno and Claveria Mayor Redentor N. Salvaleon. (VANESSA MAE S. SIANO, DA-RAFID 10)

Comelec prepares for brgy elections
P
AGADIAN City, Zamboanga del Sur––The provincial office of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) is undertaking the necessary preparation for the holding of the scheduled Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) elections on October 28 this year. Lawyer Dinah CagampongSapong, provincial election
officer-in-charge, said among the preparations b eing undertaken are the inventory of ballot boxes and checking the names of “inactive” voters. According to Sapong, about 20,000 voters were not able to cast their votes in the May 13 mid-term elections after they failed to validate their records at the Comelec.
She said the validation of voters for the Barangay and SK elections will start on July 1, this year. She said it would include capturing of biometrics for those who registered manually or those who did not cast their votes for more than three consecutive elections already. Sapong said the period for
the validation of voters will be done 90 days before the scheduled elections in October. She advised the voters from 26 towns and one city of this province to bring their valid identification cards or birth certificates during validation. Me anw h i l e, S ap ong s ai d they have not yet received an advice or schedule for the reg-
istration of new voters. However, she believes there should b e a registration of new voters only for the youth sector. Those aged from 15 to 17 in time for the Octob er 28 elections should register to be eligible to vote in the SK elections, Sapong said. philippine news agency
for failing to curb hikes in oil prices, utility rates
Groups describe PNoy as ‘heartless, deaf, uncaring’ “We condemn the collusion of the Aquino government and Big 3 Oil cartel in its manipulated and cartelized oil price movements and in its extreme exploitation of drivers and the citizens.” – Piston
Case... from page 6
By MARYA SALAMAT of Bulatlat.com
THE militant drivers’ group Piston vowed to hold another protest actions on Tuesday (June 25) in reaction to another round of oil price hike imposed on June 18 by oil firms. The group has already launched various protest actions, the latest of which was held in front of the Makati headquarters of oil TNC Shell and on Tuesday the group will converge in front of Chevron headquarters. On one hand, the youth group, Anakbayan, conducted a series of “noise barrages” Friday, June 21, also in protest of this week’s additional oil price hike. Piston is protesting the “big time oil price hike” last week where oil firms imposed a P1.45 per liter increase in the price of diesel and P1.05 in the price of gasoline. Public land transport vehicles such as jeepneys, buses, UV Express, Taxis and tricycles are mostly run on these petroleum products. According to Piston, this week’s
competition and trademark infringement only to promote what they are not. The aspirational value ofAkari is not surprising. Many, many brands ask to join the Superbrand program, but very few can qualify. In serving and protecting the public, it is a fact that Akari was never a Superbrand and will never qualify to be one. Misrepresentation from page 7 to the public is an offense runway mishap caused that must be dealt with ac- by one of Cebu Pacific aircrafts, which according cordingly.

oil price hike is the 5th already in a series of hikes of diesel prices and the 6th in a series of gasoline price hikes since the holding of the May 13, 2013 mid-term elections. “We condemn the collusion of the Aquino government and Big 3 Oil cartel in its manipulated and cartelized oil price movements and in its extreme exploitation of drivers and the citizens,” said George San Mateo, national president of Piston. San Mateo said they have long asked the government to scrap the Oil Deregulation Law, remove the 12 percent value added tax (Vat) imposed on petroleum products, and to nationalize the oil industry, in “our bid to free ourselves from the grip of this greedy oil cartel.” But, according to San Mateo, President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III has remained deaf and uncaring. Instead of taking actions to mitigate the people’s misery, Aquino takes the cudgels for the “Big 3,” especially for Petron in which his uncle, Danding Cojuangco, has controlling shares, San Mateo said.

Rather than open the option of raising fares, San Mateo appealed to his fellow transport leaders and to other drivers, to commuters and other motorists, to unite and launch concerted mass actions in opposition to these successive oil price hikes. He reasoned that the public is already burdened, as it is, by simultaneous hikes in tuition and other school fees, water and electricity rates. Meralco, Maynilad and Manila Water all have pending rate hikes. These utility firms remain the most profitable private utility operations in the Philippines. On top of these rate hikes, the government has been trying to raise train fares, and it may approve further increases in road toll fees. Private sector workers have also been opposing the impending hike in SSS premiums. Not ‘pusong-bato’ but heartless “Heartless” was how Vencer Crisostomo, national chairperson of Anakbayan, described the “Big 3” oil companies and water firm
by its operations should first and foremost be used for its upkeep and upgrade. Herrera said R DCXI has passed various resolutions last year to address observed poor services and facilities at the FBIA which includes the request to the President through the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) Secretar y to establish the Davao International Airport Authority (Res. No. 66, series of 2012). He r re r a s a id t h at the primary concern of the Council is on the i mpr ove m e nt of t h e facilities and services of the FBIA, noting CAAP’s report that most of the equipment are old and need
Maynilad. “Many parents and students have incurred debts just to be able to pay the astronomical tuition in colleges and universities. For water and oil companies to add to their misery with their own hikes is nothing short of heartlessness and insensitivity,” he said in a statement. The youth leader slammed President Benigno ‘Noynoy’ Aquino III for his failure to exercise governmental regulatory powers to stop oil, water, and tuition hikes. “What is the use of a government if it cannot regulate the prices of basic goods and services, and is unable to protect the welfare of the poor?” he asked. Consumers such as the Water for the People Network have noted many irregularities in the government-approved big-time water rate hikes every five years. Consumers have also pointed to numerous questionable inclusions in their water and electric bills, aside from the Value Added Tax which is imposed not just on utilities but also on oil products.

to be replaced, and that facilities need upgrading to internationally acceptable standards. Anot her R DC X I re s olut ion (Re s . No. 6 9, s e r i e s o f 2 01 2) recommended to DOTCCivil Aviation Authority of the Philippines, the retention of at least 50% of the annua l income generated by the FBIA for its regular operations and maintenance, as well as for capital investment. According to CAAP-XI report, FBIA had earned gross income for the years 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 which amounted to P373M, P395M, P466M and P513M from toll and terminal fees. “This shows that the airport is really earning,”

Herrera commented. Aside from the income of the FBIA, he said other fac tors mu st a lso be considered in the creation of DIA A such as t he frequency/number of daily flights, number of airlines, a i r p or t m a i nt en a nc e a nd operat ions a nd compliance with standards of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Presently, there are about 64 f lights daily (inbound and outbound) at FBIA by seven airlines na mely: Phi lippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, Air Philippines, Zest Air, Sea Air, Air Asia and Silk Air – international flights to Singapore (4 times daily), according to CAAP-XI.

Miami took the championship, LeBron still the MVP The season has ended. Miami took the win in the game 7 over the Spurs last Friday. Fascinating and outstanding performance by “The King” LeBron James, who scored 37 points and 12 rebounding counts. Countless 3’s from almost all the players of the Heat sure made the win more reachable for the team. Two years straight, two finals MVP straight titles, no doubt that LeBron had brought the Miami team up above the other teams. One more championship title and the team will take a
Miami’s big three GRANDSLAM. Behind the Spurs’ loss was the very outstanding game of Kawhi Leonard who had 19 points and 16 rebounds all in all. Another season is in the books. Who will take it next season? We will find out!

of the same digit.
LEO (July 23 – August 22) - Your energy levels are still incredibly high, so you should be able to tackle almost any challenge that comes your way. You may have a hard time unwinding when all is said and done. VIRGO (August 23 – September 22) - Push yourself to tackle that one big problem that everyone else seems happy to ignore. It can be hard to be the one who takes responsibility, but it should also be rewarding in the long run. LIBRA (September 23 – October 22) - You’re generally considered pretty good at expressing yourself, but on a day like today, you should find that you’re outdoing yourself. Things are looking up, so let people know how stoked you are! SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21) - You are not easily persuadable, but today, someone finds a way to bypass your skepticism. It may take some effort to shake off this beguiling new person, but it is certainly worthwhile. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21) Someone confesses their admiration for you, and you may find that you are feeling the same way in return. This could lead to a romantic connection, or it may be something even more important to you. CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19) - You can be intensely idealistic when the time is right, and today brings a new situation that demands it. Try not to push too hard if you meet resistance -- you need allies, after all!

CA orders PAL to pay back wages for its employees
THE Court of Appeals in Manila has ordered the Philippine Airlines to set aside P100 million for backwages of its flight attendants and stewards. The Philippine Airlines has offices in Davao City and other major cities in the country. In a 35-page ruling dated June 18, 2013, the CA 17th Division through Associate Justice Ramon Cruz partly granted PAL’s petition to set aside the order of the Secretary of Labor dated Dec. 23, 2010 and April 1, 2011 which granted P220-million worth of wage increase to members of the Flight At-
tendants and Stewards Association of the Philippines. Instead, the CA ordered PAL and FASAP to implement their Collective Bargaining Agreement covering the period from July 16, 2007 to July 25, 2010. “Wherefore, the petition is partly granted, the decision dated Dec. 23, 2010 and order dated April 1, 2011 of the Secretary of the Department of Labor and Employment are reversed and set aside, insofar as the salary increase and compulsory retirement age are concerned,” the CA said. Insofar as salary increase, the CA said the
DAVAO City--Charges with illegal drugs trade have been filed against a 45-year-old resident of Marawi, Lanao del Sur, earlier arrested by police inside a hotel in this city last week. A l i Ma n g u n g utu n g Macaosor, 45, of Bubog, Marawi, Lanao Del Sur, is facing charges of violation of Republic Act 9165 or Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 before the City Prosecution Office here. Police arrested Macaosor during a buy-bust operation by operatives of
Investigation and Detection Management Section of the Davao City Police Office led by Supt. Antonio Rivera. The suspect was collared inside his Room 611 at the 6th floor of My Hotel when he handed P1,000 worth of shabu to policeman posing as buyer. The police also seized from Macaosor three teabag size of crystalline substance believed to be shabu amounting to P106,000. Police said they had been monitoring Macaosor’s activities until his arrest. PNA

the past, the military has used the worn-out excuse that their troops were attacked or accosted by the NPA when the former were engaged in harmless chores like marketing,” Parago said. The NPA commander also twits the military troops’ official, 1Lt. Neven Canitan, for “cowardly” abandoning his men. Villegas, in the same statement, said that Canitan escaped by jumping off the motorcycle and threw himself in the ravine. Punishment for abuses The NPA said their “active counter-intelligence and subsequent operations” were meant to punish AFP units, especially the Civil Military Operations Battalion headed by Maj. Jake Obligado, for continuing to “encroach, settle and conduct psychological warfare and intelligence operations” in the villages of Paquibato District. Parago said military units under the 1003rd

He debunked the military’s claim that the captured soldiers were unarmed, saying NPA fighters have confiscated three .45 caliber pistols and a hand grenade. He added the military employed “anti-ambush” methods as the arrested soldiers were using motorcycles, in civilian clothes and were not carrying high-powered rifles. Capt. Raul Villegas, 10th ID’s public affairs officer, in a statement Tuesday said the soldiers were on their way to the market to buy goods. “Again, as in many of its twisted pronouncements in
following shall be followed: “PAL shall grant a lump sum salaray increase in the amount of P100 million to FASAP members applicable to the period starting from July 16, 2007 to July 25, 2010 or the remaining three-year period of the 2005-2010 CBA.” The CA reversed the order of the DOLE saying the Secretary of Labor based her findings on financial records that were not relevant to PAL. “We are constrained to disagree with her findings. They do not conform to the evidence on record and are not supported by substantial
evidence,” the CA said. The DOLE based its findings on financial statements for fiscal year 2010 to 2011. “The use of irrelevant document to support her finding casts serious doubt as to whether there is substantial evidence to support her conclusion and consequent award,” the CA ruling said. Records showed PAL suffered losses of US$ 297.8 million in fiscal year 2008 to 2009 and US$ 14.3 million in the fiscal year ending March 2010. “There is surfeit proof establishing the precarious
financial condition of PAL,” the ruling said. In so far as the retirement age is concerned, the CA ruled the compulsory retirement age for those hired (1) before Nov. 22, 1996 should be 55 years for female, 60 years for male; (2) after Nov. 22, 1996 should be 45 years for female and male; (3) after Nov. 22, 2000 should be 40 years for female and male; and (4) those hired after July 16, 2007 should be 40 years for female and male. “Retirement is the result of a bilateral act of the parties, a voluntary agreement between the employer and the employee whereby the
latter, after reaching a certain age, agrees to sever his or her employment with the former,” the CA said. “The retirement age for flight attendants hired: (a) before Nov. 22, 1996; (b) after Nov. 22, 1996; (c) after Nov. 22, 2000 as stipulated in the past CBAs are obligations arising from contracts, hence, they must be complied with in good faith,” the ruling said. FASAP was “not coerced or forced by PAL to sign the previous CBAs... fully aware that it provided a specific retirement age for flight attendants,” the CA added. PNA

Brigade have militarized the civilian populace and abused the locals in Paquibato and the hinterland villages of Davao City and Davao del Norte through the AFP’s “peace and development” programs. He cited the arrest of civilians, red tagging of peasant leaders, harassment of family members of NPA members, the killing of civilian Elias Acero and the wounding of another civilian in an incident April 8, and the killing of civilian Ramirez Esdang in Malabog last December. He also said that the military’s operations in Paquibato District were to pave the way for large-scale mining operations. The military suspects that Parago, the most want-
ed communist commander in Southern Mindanao, is operating in Paquibato and adjacent hinterland villages. The military are now on pursuit and rescue operations following the capture of their men. However, Parago warned that such move “will only endanger the lives of the POWs.” “ The NPA custodial force will continue to take active defensive stance to protect its troops while ensuring the safety of its captives,” Parago said. The NPA said the five POWs are undergoing investigation for possible violations on human rights and the International Humanitarian Law; and the possible crimes they have committed against the people. davaotoday.com

Two projects are intended for Compostela particularly the Overflow (Spillway) Structure Rehabilitation at Barangay Ngan and the Trading Center at Barangay Poblacion. Compostela Valley Governor Arturo T. Uy and USAID-Philippines Mission Director Gloria Steele led the ceremonial ground breaking of the projects last June 14.
The other three projects include a Trading Center at Barangay Aguinaldo; bridge construction at New Bataan, and the construction of Lebanon-San Jose Bridge in Montevista. New Bataan was the most badly hit in the province with schools and classrooms wiped out. Aside from the infra projects, USAID turned over armchairs, teacher’s tables and chairs, school bags with school supplies to Cabinuangan Elementary School in New Bataan also last June 14. PNA
