NPAs seize militiaman in DavOr

By Lilian C. Mellejor

DAVAO CITY –- A member of the Special Civilian Armed Auxiliary (SCAA) was seized

by New People’s Army (NPA) rebels in a checkpoint set up by more or less 30 armed guerillas in Purok Upper Waywayan, Barangay Don Mariano, Lupon, Davao Oriental Tuesday.

Capt. Rhyan Batchar, spokesperson of the 10th Infantry Division, identified the abducted militiaman as Rene C. Doller, who was assigned at 1st Platoon, 4th CAAC, Davao Oriental, Ligadan Detachment in South Ligadan, Barangay Don Enrique Lopez, Mati City. His motorcycle was burned by the rebels, Batchar said.

This developed as the troops from the 28th Infantry Battalion engaged NPA rebels in a clash in Purok 2 in Barangay New Visayas, Lupon, Davao Oriental earlier on Tuesday.

Batchar said no casualty was reported from the military side but the NPA may have suffered the same based on the blood stains seen in the area.

Batchar said after an hour of encounter, the troops took from the area 40 backpacks, medical paraphernalia, several personal belongings and subversive documents left by the fleeing NPA rebels.

Community-based transformation Sarangani mourns passing of 1st program for drug dependents lauded governor, Priscilla L. Chiongbian NABUNTURAN, Compostela Valley -- The Provincial Government of Compostela Valley lauded the success of the first community-based transformative intervention program for drug dependents.

In a statement on Tuesday, the provincial government said 51 former drug dependents or Voluntary Surrenderees for Reform (VSR) completed their three-month rehabilitation under the program.

The program, dubbed as “Oplan Liwanag,” is being

piloted in Barangay Banlag in Monkayo town.

Oplan Liwanag is being run by the Provincial Anti-Drug Abuse Council (PADAC) in the province chaired by Governor Jayvee Tyron Uy. The 51 VSRs, considered as first batch of “graduates” under the program, formally ended their rehabilitation process last February 7, the provincial government said.

Oplan Liwanag will serve as a community rehabilitation program in Compostela Valley, aimed to cater to

drug dependents and will answer the problem of lack of enough rehabilitation centers in the area.

Various sectors in the province are actively involved in Oplan Liwanag, including barangay officials, the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the respective Municipal Anti-Drug Abuse Councils (MADACs).

In the past three months, the provincial government said the 51 VSRs underwent weekly counseling, community services, family See program, page A7

GENERAL SANTOS CITY -- Residents and officials of Sarangani province are mourning the passing last Sunday night of its first governor, Priscilla L. Chiongbian.

Chiongbian, who laid the foundation of a “people-centered governance and development” in the province, died in Manila at age 94.

She served as governor for three terms, from 1992 to 2001, and was wellloved for her advocacy of

tri-people harmony among Christians, Moros, and Indigenous Peoples (IP).

Roy Chiongbian, her youngest son, said the late governor “was a woman who loved to serve the Sarangans”.

“She put God first always, and because of this, she was blessed tremendously. She in turn passed on these blessings by blessing others,” he said in a statement.

Through his mother, he said they learned the value of hard work, perseverance

and integrity.

The younger Chiongbian said they learned to love others, even in the most difficult circumstances.

“She was not only a great leader, but also a great mother. Sarangani has been blessed to know this. Although she will be greatly missed, the knowledge that she is home with God gives us great joy,” he said.

“Sarangani, we want

PHL beauties vow to promote ‘Inaul’ MISS Universe Philippines Maxine Medina and Miss Philippines International Kylie Versoza recently vowed to promote Maguindanao’s “Inaul” cloth, even as Medina vowed to wear the same cloth in future fashion shows.

Medina was also elated with the Moro women’s skills in weaving the now famous cloth that some Miss Universe candidates wore during a fashion show in Davao City.

Medina and Versoza were special guests, judge and host of Maguindanao’s local search for Miss Maguindanao Sunday night here.

Medina expressed support to Maguindanao’s efforts on empowering women with knowledge and skills like Inaul weaving.

“I am happy to hear this, women should always have the avenue for empower-

ment, every woman is capable of doing anything, then if you can handle it, do it, go for it”, Medina, who was among the Final 6 in the recent Miss Universe pageant, told reporters.

“Hopefully, in the coming days, I will display the Inaul gown that are handmade by Moro women,” she said after a courtesy call with Maguindanao Governor Esmael Mangudadatu.

Mangudadatu said the provincial government will train more women in the “Inaul” weaving industry.

“It will help our industry, it will help our women especially those wives and widowers of the rebels,” Mangudadatu said.

God does not count our mistakes but our strengths The Gospel of Jesus Christ (February 16, 2017-Thurday) Luke 7s:3650-And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat. And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that [Jesus] sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, And stood at his feet behind [him] weeping, and began to wash his feet

with tears, and did wipe [them] with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the ointment: In our gospel, we can relate the sinner woman as “representative” of all human beings who are also sinners. In Romans 3:10-as it is written, there is “none righteous,” no, not one. In 1 John 1:8-if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But the question is; what is the

“difference of this woman” to us? This “woman came to Jesus and surrendered her life” through anointing Jesus with an expensive Myra o alabaster box of ointment. Supposed to be, this scenario will be imitated by all people by coming to God in the “sacrament of reconciliation.

The truth is; God does not

DOH spearheads another round of deworming campaign

By Quenny Dyan Efondo Lahunay, RN

The Department of Health (DOH), in coordination with the Department of Education (DepEd), spearheads another round of the National School Deworming Months (NSDM), January this year.

This year’s theme is “Oplan: Goodbye Bulate!”, targeting public school pupils and students from ages five to 18 years old.

Prior to the actual date

of deworming, parents had to give consent for their children to undergo the process, while in the parentsteachers conference, they were informed about the importance of deworming school children every six months.

During the occasion, possible side effects, adverse reactions and the corresponding actions, if untoward incidents ever occur, were likewise discussed by

designated school nurses.

The pupils and students were required to bring individual toothbrushes, since oral hygiene was done first before the medication proper even as they were allowed to take snacks earlier.

DOH and DepEd authorities explained, a full stomach is necessary, as an empty stomach would most likely result in nausea, vomiting and abdominal discomfort.

Qualities of effective principals

By NOLI SABELLA EBONIA

SCHOOL improvement efforts rely heavily on quality leadership. Educational leaders are tasked with establishing a collective vision for school improvement and initiating change to spur innovation, ensure student learning and increase achievement. The job of a principal or school leader for that matter is

about making a difference in the lives of children. Leading and teaching is challenging work that requires a high level of understanding and patience.

What do good principals do? They are great communicators, difference makers, manages by walking around, addresses problems and cares about students and staff. Principals need to be able to communi-

cate what the school is all about. School leaders don’t always do the best in terms of epitomizing effective communication. In terms of valuations, we can’t keep telling teachers that they are doing good work when they are not. Being a direct communicator is often lost during discussions on teacher performance.

Principals also need to be able to keep the focus on

They, further, develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient’s family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to better improve the quality of life.

As for me, it is with deep gratitude and thanks that I would be able to care for the

sick and the poor as a nurse.

No amount of money nor gifts could ever fathom the satisfaction and happiness I feel whenever I see people being treated of their illness and who are able to come home to their loved ones safe and sound, even if it means working my way on graveyard shifts and over time schedules.

Yes, it may not be easy but my love for this profession is of sounding resonance that wherever I will go, I will always bring this pride in me that I am and I was able to help people through my skills. Amidst sleepless

nights and tiresome days, still, before I will close my eyes to sleep, I will keep in me that tomorrow is another day, another opportunity to care people and touch lives.

My salute to all nurses out there, who, in one way or the other have not lose hope that someday, those who we have helped today may care for other people in the future also. Life is a cycle. Let us just continue to do our job with utmost commitment and happiness. That is why, as always, I will say, I love nursing, I love this job and I will always be in the forefront to care for everyone.

DTI-Davao regional director Maria Belenda Ambi s aid consumers must be vigilant and ensure that violators are reported.

“With the issuance of the IRR on RA 10909, we can finally institutionalize the giving of exact change to consumers of goods and ser vices and promotes a higher standard of treating consumers in the event of lack of change

and encourages retailers to shoulder instead this lacking change,” she said.

Busi ne ss e st abl ish ments found to have violated the provisions of this Act may pay a penalty of PHP500 to PHP25,000 or 3 percent to 10 percent of gross sales on the day of violation, whichever is higher.

Meanwhile, a penalty for the third offense includes the suspension of license to operate for three

months, and its revocation for the fourth offense.

The Department of Health (DOH), Department of Education (DepdEd) and Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) in Misamis Oriental have succeeded in their joint school-based immunization, among grade schoolers in the year 2015.

Aimed at averting about three million deaths every year from diphtheria, tetanus, measles and rubella (german measles), the project was part of the government’s attempt to eradicate the emergence of vaccine- preventable diseases, especially in the remote areas of the country.

Done nationwide, it was a free vaccination program for all public schools in the Philippines.

Some private schools have also participated in the program, with clearance Notice

Room-to-room information campaigns were also done in schools to help allay and ease the anxiety of the pupils.

Parental consents were secured, as part of the preparation for the immunization day.

Grade 1 to Grade 7 pupils were the target beneficiaries.

Screening was also done on Grade 7 female adolescents to rule out the possibility of pregnancy, since the MR vaccine could cause teratogenic effects to the unborn baby.

professional relationship with the patient is a must.

First thing, nurses must always remember that the patients have their own personal struggles aside from their illness, that they may get too impatient and that they may get irate in a short span of time. That is why it is always necessary that we nurses should establish deep patience and understanding among ourselves so that

we may able to understand the patients in the best way possible and to the best of what we can. We should, at all times understand our patients and their needs.

Second, at all times, let us always show professionalism to our patients. Yes, given that we should always understand our patients but we as nurses should portray that our patients should respect us as well. Respect and trust is vital in every working relationship be it in the hospital or at home.

Third, nurses too should

always bring positivity whenever we enter the room of our patient. We must be a living example that there is hope amidst life’s trials and challenges.

With this, we should always smile and through this smile, we can alight and ignite hope and optimism to our patients.

Although the job’s not easy, still, let us smile and smile and everything will follow. This, let us handle our relationship with our patients with utmost care as well.

Handling patient relationships

By Charish Diana B. Damian

One of the common problems in the nursing profession is that nurses get too attached with their patients that when someone dies, they get too affected.

It is very easy for the nurses to establish close and harmonious relationship with the patients but when that certain patient struggles or even dies, nurses also feel the pain and the loss, that is why maintaining a healthy,

Authority (TESDA) to train Moro women.

After the cloth was displayed by Miss Universe candidates in Davao City, Mangudadatu said the demand for Inaul went skyrocketing that made him worry the supply could not meet the demand.

And he got the support of Bai Nomina Odin Culi, an Inaul weaving expert, who decided to stay in the country and provide more training for Moro women.

Culi is an overseas Filipino worker scheduled to return overseas but decided to stay after she learned of the declining number of Inaul weavers.

“I decided to stay, teach more weavers to save the Inaul industry from extinction,” she said in Filipino.

Inaul is a fabric used by Moro people as “malong” (tube-type cloth).

Mangudadatu said the centuries-old practice of weaving is considered as the highest form of artistic expression in Maguindanao and has been passed on from generation to generation.

The daily activities were conducted by the Provincial Spiritual Development and Values Restoration Program (PSDVRP) team composed of pastors, priests and other religious leaders of the dominant churches in Compostela Valley.

The VSRs were also given the opportunity to be trained and assessed for National Certificate II (NC II), of which all of them completed and passed the skills training program for free in driving and in beauty care services (nail care) with the support of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) in the province.

“This is part of the government’s efforts to ensure that those who have been listed as drug dependents are able to prove that they are now drug-free and are equipped with their chosen competencies which will eventually become part of their sources of income,” the provincial government said.

Oplan Liwanag was created when Governor Uy issued Executive Order (EO) No. 064-2016 dated August 2, 2016.

Partner agencies include TESDA, PNP, the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), Department of Health (DOH), Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWD), Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the local government unit of Monkayo.

The provincial government added that plans and further assessment of the program implementation is under way for its launch in other barangays in Compostela Valley. PNA)

by Mrs. Chiongbian was manifested through grassroots development, such as that of the IPs. As the first governor, Mrs. Chiongbian introduced several programs and initiatives that have resulted in Sarangani’s growth.

The provincial capitol building and other structures within the Capitol Park served as a landmark of the province’s development during her administration.

The province of Sarangani was created by virtue of Republic Act No. 7228 dated March 16, 1992, through then Rep. James L. Chiongbian of South Cotabato’s third district.(PNA)

Incumbent governor, Steve Chiongbian Solon, is a grandson of the late governor.

Her late husband, James Chiongbian, had represented Sarangani and the previously undivided South Cotabato province at the House of Representatives.

“On behalf of the Chiongbian family, I would like to express our gratitude for the many people who have expressed their condolences with us,” Roy Chiongbian added.

Mrs. Chiongbian, better known at the Capitol by her initials PLC and at the villages as Mommy Priscy, was first elected governor of Sarangani on Nov. 28, 1992.

She is known as the Mother of Sarangani province. With her leadership, Sarangani was recognized as a key player in the Soccsksargen area.

“Bring back life! Bring back the fish and the trees!” was the battle cry for the environment under her overreaching goal of developing environmental integrity.

“PLC was not only a public servant but also a mother in the truest sense of the word,” said Fredo Basino, her former provincial planning and development coordinator.

For its Mindanao leg, it will be serving the students of Jose Abad Santos, Don Marcelino, Sta. Maria, and Malita, Davao Occidental’s capital.

Students are bound to experience learning about mangroves; earthquakes, tsunamis, and storm surge; weather science; marine micropaleontology; astronomy; fun mathematics; and the scientific method, which will be facilitated by experts from the University of the Philippines – Diliman.

DOST-SEI Director Josette T. Biyo said that the Science Explorer’s venture to Davao Occidental is the first step of the project to reach out further into the south.

“We were successful in our first attempt last year to go further south as we brought love for science to the students of Samar and Leyte. We are hoping that we could bring the same experience to our participants in Mindanao,” she said.

DTI, EU-TRTA mobilize public-private efforts towards trade opportunities under PH trade agreements To mobilize, support, integrate, and harmonize publicprivate efforts towards taking full advantage of trade opportunities under the Philippines’ trade agreements, the Department of Trade and Industry Region 4-A, in partnership with the European UnionTrade Related Technical Assistance (EU-TRTA) Project 3, conducted the ASEAN/ European Union-General System of Preferences Multistakeholder Briefing recently at the Crowne Plaza Galleria Hotel, Ortigas, Quezon City.

DTI - Regional Operations Group Undersecretary Zenaida Maglaya said that the CALABARZON Region, or the provinces composed of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon, contributes greatly to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country, adding that these assets could help in trade opportunities.

“CALABARZON has the biggest population in the country and is the number one contributor in manufacturing and number two contributor in agriculture to the country’s Gross Domestic Product. The region has so much resources and human resources. We only need to look at these opportunities and push ourselves to work harder,” Maglaya said.

Team Leader and Key Expert of the EU-TRTA 3 Dr. Florian A. Alburo explained that the project is intended to support the country in integrating into the global and regional trade and investment system. He added that the EU-TRTA 3 provides

support to the Philippine government to help them understand what is going on in terms of accessing the world market.

“The Philippines has yet to fully be ready for the global markets. Because it is an archipelagic country, it does not have a full appreciation of borders unlike its neighboring countries. What we need to know is that there are lots of opportunities for trade upon crossing borders,” Alburo said.

According to Export Marketing Bureau Director Senen M. Perlada, participating in Fair Trade Agreements (FTAs) can maintain competitiveness, promote cross-border complementation, sustain inflow of investments, and provide mutual support on issues of common interest.

“CALABARZON is rich in agro-based goods, automotive products, electronics and electrical goods, fisheries, wood-based products, healthcare services, logistics services, and tourism, which are the Priority Integration Sectors (PIS) Goods Sector and PIS Services Sector.

ASEAN plans to promote the goods and services industries as an integrated economy versus the rest of the world,” Perlada explained.

The Department encourages the country’s players and stakeholders to take full advantage of the integrated ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) and other free trade agreements (FTAs) that the Philippines has with its trading partners given that the local sectors are heavily

engaged in regional value chains.

Perlada added that the ASEAN Comprehensive Investment Agreement (ACIA) provides for fair and equitable treatment; non-discriminatory treatment for compensation for losses arising from civil strife, riots etc.; free transfer of funds including capital, profits, dividends; and protection of investments. As economic activities become increasingly regional, ease in the transfer of funds from one country to another for a variety of purposes has become even more essential.

Association of Laguna Food Processors (ALAFOP) President Clarke S. Nebrao also shared how DTI helped their association through a food processing facility through the Shared Service Facility (SSF) program. The CALABARZON Food Solutions Hub (CFoSH) was acquired at a cost of PHP 16-million. It consists of advanced processing machineries and other ancillary equipment installed at the Laguna State Polytechnic University (LSPU) in Santa Cruz, Laguna.
