Village chieftain Vangie Salinas of Ladgadan village of this town reported his nephew Jeppy Carles, 22, drowned to death when he tried to swim on the river where floodwaters was rampaging. Another casualty was Guillermo Hilarion who drowned to death while tending his farm in
the village of Comota in La Paz town. There were more reports of missing persons but local disaster risk reduction management offices have yet to verify and confirm their identities. Gov. Adolph Edward Plaza has visited on Saturday three vil-
lages in La Paz which were highly affected with large agricultural damage and many homes were swept away by raging floodwaters when their villages were totally swamped. Plaza has called on residents of the farming village of

DAVAO City––A Davao homegrown restaurant specializing in seafood dishes has tied up with small fish farmers from Zamboanga and even from some Luzon areas for their supply of marine products. The Blue Post Boiling Crabs and Shrimps which opened its third store in Davao City on Friday is also supporting small fish farmers here. The newly opened restaurant is a business entity under the AA Group of Companies headed by Anthony T. Ang, chief executive officer. Ang said as a partner,
they provide capital to these farmers with specifications that they produce the kind of sea products based on quality and standards. He said their requirement is 1,000 kilos a month, adding that they would be needing more as they will open a branch in Manila also this month, its first franchise store in the Mall of Asia. There will also be a stand-alone restaurant in Greenhills and another in Seascape on Roxas Blvd. as well as another branch at SM Megamall. Ang said that they are targeting to open a total of
20 restaurants for the next five years. He said they are inspired to establish more stores as the demand for seafood dishes is increasing. Ang said they give importance to research and development, noting that their advocacy is to be socially responsible and to grow as a company with a heart. “We have chosen to help and support the Special Kids from Open Hands School, a school that focuses on giving light and developing the special kids in the Philippines via entrepreneurship”.

A CAREER is a rapid motion. A course of action. A professional conduct in life. A progress through life. What is a careerist? One, who rushes widely and makes his own personal advancement his or her own aim in life. When career doubts won’t go away? What if you’re not happy in your job? Is it possible that you’re in the wrong entirely? My parents always (!) wanted me to become a banker. So far so good. Why not? Maybe I would have been more (or very happy) in my job. Or not? The pressure “to be” someone starts in life early indeed. Not only my parents, also peers and teachers begun to exert influence. Yes, I didn’t even know where my inclinations lie. Being a doctor or a lawyer? Yes, I was interested in law and medicine during that time. “The way that people pick careers is incredibly primitive,” said Nicholas Lore, founder of the Rockport Institute, a career coaching firm, and author of “The Pathfinder”. So, it’s no wonder, he said, that so many people are dissatisfied with their jobs. Me too1 Yes, count me in! Not mass-communication has been been my subject, but publishing house management. So far so good. I always thought about a true calling for me. Sure, people whose careers aren’t the right fit often feel like impostors, the Professor Robert I. Sutton, an or-
Klaus Doring
ganizational psychologist at Stanford University in Palo Alto, said. Very, very well said, Sir. How about you, my dear reader? Are you also placing too high, your value on the external rewards of the job, like money, prestige and power? Sure, these things are indeed important. Hold on! The work you do and the skills your opportunity require and the value of your work are really more vital to fulfillment. Paperwork or not... . You think, you find a better career fit? Go ahead - but don’t expect that this is your life’s career! I waited my “better calling” experiencing many better and wonderful moments in life. I experienced also that what I have been very much compatible to me, as what my parents thought. I became what I am now. A professor, a businessman, yes -thank you Lord!- a columnist, radio host and an expatriate in the Philippines for 18 years now (!) enjoying life here and cherishing the incredible companionship with these incredible Filipino people. +++ Comments?

It’s not too late for PNP chief Dela Rosa to redeem himself
e-mail: mindanaodailynews@gmail.com
Tuesday, January 24, 2017
IT is not too late for Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Director General Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa” to redeem himself amid calls for him to resign, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” Lacson said on Sunday. Calls for Dela Rosa’s resignation came after a Korean businessman Jee Ick Joo was reportedly abducted by policemen last year and eventually killed in Camp Crame earlier this week. Dela Rosa also came under fire for attending the concert of Canadian singer Bryan Adams the same day the Korean businessman was killed. Lacson, a former PNP chief, said that he knew Dela Rosa personally and noticed that he had “changed” probably because of “fame or popularity” but was hopeful that if he returned to his old ways, he would be able to recover. “I think he would be able to recover,” Lacson said in a radio interview reiterating that the murder of Jee could serve as Dela Rosa’s “wake-up call”. “I don’t think See REDEEM, page A6

Senator seeks review of Juvenile Justice Act AS an alternative to lowering the criminal age of responsibility, a senator on Sunday sought for a review on the Juvenile Justice Welfare Act of 2006 (Republic Act No. 9344, as amended) as a solution to lowering the number of crime among minors. Sen. Sher win “Win” Gatchalian said that in-
stead of focusing on the age of criminal liability, the government should focus on treating the root cause of the problem such as poverty in slums and rural villages. He also said that the government should engage in programs to prevent children from committing crimes at an early age. “Rather than lower-
ing the minimum age of criminal responsibility, the more feasible solution to the growing number of children in conflict with the law (CICL) is the full and proper implementation of RA 9344, as amended, and the examination of laws accruing to the responsibility of parents and guardians See SENATOR, page A6
Public told: Beware of fake news A sister cautioned netizens to validate the authenticity of an article before assuming it is true. Sr. Adel Abamo, SDS expressed sadness over the growing number of people still clueless about being fooled by fake news sites. “Some netizens repost fake news thinking that those are legitimate,” she complained. “This is more saddening because they become instruments in misinforming the people.” Not her Abamo cited fake news article spreading a lie about Vice President Leni Robredo, who appeared pregnant in a picture. The head in the picture was really Robredo’s, she pointed out. But the tummy, which was edited into the original photo, belonged to a pregnant American model in a yellow dress. According to her, the people behind such falsehoods are out there “assassi-
nating the character of persons in favor of others.” This particular article was not the only piece of fake news on social media that has misled people, especially the young, noted Abamo. Damage done Sen. Leila Delima, who has yet to be proven guilty of involvement in drugs, reportedly had a sex video, she pointed out. Believing the tape was authentic, netizens condemned and laughed at Delima, said the sister. Eventually, it was discovered that the woman caught on tape was not her, Abamo lamented. The damage has probably hurt her family so much. “Fake news [is] flooding the social media,” she said. “People should be responsible citizens. Validate whether or not a post is a legitimate news. Otherwise, we become part in misleading people.” (Oliver Samson / CBCPNews)

The Mystery of Mr. Beall’s blog OVER the past two weeks, I have been wondering about the missing blog owned by Mr. Jeffery Beall. His blog is famous because it has (had) “blacklisted” thousands of academic international journals. It was so odd to see that blog. Even several journals that have been indexed by the Scopus indexer are also blacklisted in it. When reading some posts in it, we can read various kinds of postings. Up to 2017, there have been 1924 potential, possible or probable predatory scholarly open-access journals being blacklisted. Some argue by asking how Jeffrey Beall decided to blacklist the academic journals. Some even supported him the way he blacklisted the academic journals. How-

ever, there were also some angry with him because there was no warning at all before blacklisting the journals. There was no reminder letter or email from the journal publishers see that their academic journals were blacklisted. One day, a friend of mine told me that one of his academic journals was blacklisted. I am one of the editorial board members in it. I tried to send email asking for the reason why it was blacklisted. He said that someone who admitted to be one of the contributors in that journal reported to him. Jeffery Beall said one of the articles sent was published without undergoing a review. It is a slander because the journal uses a hard process of blind re-
viewing. All the processes are based on the SOP of ISO basis. I agree that all journal articles should be verified by the body of accreditation. But, this body must be credible not just managed by a single person. Let alone, this body is only operated by using a blog. In my country, Indonesia, we have a very credible Body of accreditation. For the academic journal, we have Arjuna (Akreditasi Jurnal Nasional or the Accreditation of National Journal). This is the professional website: http:// arjuna.ristekdikti.go.id/. This journal accreditation body is officially managed by team members not just by a single person like Jeffrey Beall. Unfortunately, there have
Dr. Djuwari
(had) been thousands of academic journals blacklisted by Jeffrey Beall in his blog. I know that he had tried to remind the publishers of having a good quality standard of academic journals. But, the way is not elegant. There is no time to improve, especially the novice scholars. He has just never motivated the novice. He should nurture the novice researchers if he is really a more mature researcher. Logically, a new journal publisher is always new in everything. See mystery, page A7

same president who just weeks ago had been accused of protectionism and of flooding the Western markets with state-subsidized steel. The same president whose country on whom the EU refuses to grant market economy status. I really strongly agree with Frank Sieren in saying that while Trump is regarded negatively as a champion of total protectionism, Xi is now being considered an advocate for a fair globalization. But neither is Xi the Che Guevara of a free global economy, nor is Trump the avenger of those US citizens who have lost out with globalization. Put simply, the two have different interests. Trump will have to see how he can reduce an $800 billion trade deficit and create jobs at home. While Xi has to defend his trade
surplus by selling as many goods as possible to the rest of the world. Xi’s position is much more in tune with Germany’s interests for instance. China, the possible new allover partner (?) of the Philippines and the US are still suffering differing interests. Should we like it when Xi insists that protectionism does not help anybody, that everyone is in the same boat, that nobody could win a trade war and that economic globalization is not responsible for all the refugees, terrorism and poverty in the world. We also like hearing him say that “in a philosophical sense, nothing is perfect in the world,” not even free trade, and making calls for constant improvements, with rules
Klaus Doring
that are adhered to. “One should not just retreat to the harbor when encountering a storm, for this will never get us to the other shore of the ocean,” he said, speaking of Trump without mentioning his name. Trump, and that’s not only Sierens and my opinion, could retort that if a ship risks going under in the storm it makes sense to retreat to the harbor when he makes his first speech as US president yesterday (Friday, January 20, 2017). The world looks different from the perspective of a rising power like China than from that See counter, page A7

Top issues of the day
THERE is only one report from the media in Cagayan de Oro for the last three days and it is about the flood, the continuous rains, the dead, the alleged floating coffins in Bolonsiri cemetery, traffic problems, people walking along waist-deep streets. Filipinos more particularly Kagay-anons in America are quiet about it while watching TV newscasts, but definitely they are hurt and so worried. They lost no time in contacting their relatives and friends for updates and names of victims. That is precisely what I did besides gathering information too. I stayed awake for more than 24 hours just to be sure the city I love so much is not floating on unparalleled disaster.
For myself, I wanted to cry because I and my family were long time residents of the city and there never was a flood ever no matter how heavy the rains that hit the place. Three of my children were born there. They studied at the City Central School, then at the Cathedral High School and Xavier University and they all enjoyed the place that is known as the city of golden friendship. Cagayan de Oro had always been my city after I left our town of Balingasag. I earned thousands of friends while I worked with the local media. I knew the majority of the people specially city and provincial employees as well as in the private sectors.. You can see how much love has developed in
my heart for the city, that to me has no equal. I lived five years in Cebu City, seven years in Manila, two years in Butuan and two years in Malaybalay - - 28 years in the United States but Cagayan de Oro remains the place I miss so much. I am so glad a lot of city residents in Cagayan de Oro as well as businessmen went out amid downpour to distribute relief goods, donated foods, helped victims of the floods. So nice the pains in the heart of the victims are treated well and tears that were falling dried up. The people, like the city have hearts made of gold.

the United States, China and most probably their allies. I guess everybody knows my point, especially those who have the habit of reading media news reports. It is going to be deadly, but there is nothing we can do but be part of the fracas. Certainly, I blame China for its attitude of expansionism on territories not within its domain. The site for probable conflict is within our territory. And the only participation of the United Stats is to make it sure See issues, page A7

Poor. Hungry and clueless in Mindanao
Tuesday, January 24, 2017

H E Pa l a c e press is crowing about how fewer Filipinos considered themselves poorer in 2016 than any other year on record.
“Change has indeed come, and it is being felt by our people,” Presidential Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said in a report recently published in a national daily. The Social Weather Stations (SWS) said the average self-rated poverty for Filipinos hit a record low 44% in 2016--the lowest in the SWS survey history. Ironically, more poor people in Luzon outside Metro Manila rated them poorer compared to people in Mindanao where poverty is actually getting worse compared to the rest of the country. The self-rated poverty in Metro Manila dropped five points from 36% in September to 31% in December. Mindanao dipped two points from 49% to 47%. The survey also showed 34% of respondents- or an estimated 7.7 million families- considered themselves “food poor,” i.e., they believe the kind of food they eat is for poor people. However, it also placed the average self-rated food poverty rate for 2016 at 32%, another record low from the previous record of 35% in 2015. The SWS report also reported Mindanao residents who rated themselves poor said they would need at least

Four out of every 10 families, and four out of every 10 individuals residing in Mindanao are living below the poverty line. P10,000 per month to not to be considered “food-poor”. This bolsters figures we received recently from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO): Some three-fourths of the population of Mindanao (12.6 million people) fall below levels 2 (mild chronic food insecurity), 3 (moderate chronic food insecurity) and 4 (severe chronic food insecurity), on the Integrated Food Security Phase

Classification. Of these, 1.96 million were found to be suffering from severe chronic food insecurity in 2015. The PSA says about a quarter of the country’s 100 million people are poor. As of the first half of 2015, 26.3 percent of Filipinos live below the poverty line. During our previous column on ‘The Magnitude of Poverty in Mindanao’ we noted how the magnitude
and share of the total poor families nationwide dropped by 1.6 percent in the last 10 years (62,770 households) from 3,809,283 in 2006 to only 3,746,513 in 2015. Thus, the total population of the poor in the country declined by -3% or 716,917 (from 22,643,981 in 2006 to only 22,927,009 in 2015). Unfortunately, these same figures also reveal that poverty magnitude

and share of total population actually increased by 8 percent or 112,737 households in Mindanao, and the percentage share of the total poor in total population increased from 36.8 in 2006 to 40.4. Thus, the population of the total poor in Mindanao over the last 10 years actually increased by 616,421 individuals (from 1,401,719 in 2006 to 1,514,457 in 2015) and the share of total popu-
lation likewise increased from 36.39 in 2006 to 40.39 in 2015. As a ratio, four out of every 10 families, and four out of every 10 individuals residing in Mindanao are living below the poverty line. In plain language, 86 percent of that decline over the last 10 years in the number of total individuals living below the poverty line nationwide has almost come to naught by the increase in the number of individuals in Mindanao who are now considered poor. The PSA figures show 11 of the 20 poorest provinces in the Philippines are in Mindanao: Lanao del Sur (74.3%); Sulu (65.7%); Sarangani (61.7%); Maguindanao (59.4%); Bukidnon (58.7%); Sultan Kudarat (56.2%); Zamboanga del Norte (56.1%); Agusan del Sur (54.8%);Lanao del Norte (50%); North Cotabato (48.9%); and Zamboanga Sibugay (44.9%). That’s eight of the top 10 poorest provinces (80%!) and 11 of the top 20 (55% !) or over half of the 20 poorest provinces in the whole country! And that’s not even going into the nitty gritty of all those families in Mindanao living below the poverty line in the other provinces of the island which are not in that list. To further verify this point, we consulted the Department of Social Welfare and Development’s (DSWD) National Household Targeting System Database. Known as the Listahanan, it is used to identify the beneficiaries of the Conditional Cash Transfer Program (CCTP or 4Ps, Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program) See family, page A7

In a statement released by 10th Infantry Division, elements of the 39th Infantry Battalion and Makilala PNP responded to a report that communist rebels have harassed the driver and cargo truck of Santos Land Development Corporation (SLDC), a banana firm operating in North Cotabato. The 10th ID said as the soldiers were heading toward Barangay Biangan at 5 p.m., they were fired upon by still undetermined number of rebels. An hourlong firefight erupted. The next day, clashes erupted anew at 5:30 a.m., leaving one rebel killed and the recovery of three M-16 rifles and personal belongings of the slain rebel. The 10th ID said the soldiers were only responding to a harassment against a cargo truck and not a military offensive against communist rebels. Earlier, Delio Tongco, SLDC truck driver, reported to the police that gunmen flagged down his truck, took the vehicles ignition key, and fled. The gunmen also threatened to burn SLDC vehicles if revolutionary tax demands are ignored. A spokesperson for the communist movement in Southern Mindanao, Rigoberto Sanchez, said in a statement that eight soldiers and an NPA rebel were killed in the clashes.
But the military denied the report, calling it a propaganda. The clashes erupted amid peace talks between the government and NPA leaders in Rome. (PNA)

Butuan City in Agusan del Norte was placed under a state of imminent danger on Friday as residents in 12 villages along the Agusan River were evacuated. A total of 18 towns in three provinces in Caraga were hit by floodwaters, forcing 10,049 families or 48,005 individuals to flee their homes. Towns also affected by the flooding include Talacogon, Sibagat, Bunawan, San Francisco, Trento, Veruela, and Sta. Josefa in Agusan del Sur; and Tubay, Remedios T. Romualdez, Jabonga and Cabadbaran City in Agusan del Norte. In Surigao del Norte, the town of Mainit was severely affected as the water level in Lake Mainit rose. (Roel N. Catoto / MindaNews)

it’s too late for him to recover and refocus his priority and avoid what is not related to police work,” he added, describing Dela Rosa as “smart, unassuming, and humble.” Lacson also stressed that Dela Rosa’s resignation would need an immediate replacement and that Pres. Rodrigo Duterte himself trusted Dela Rosa. “I’d rather give him that second chance because if he decides to resign or is relieved from his position, will the institution be ready? Who would replace him?” Lacson said. “His advantage is that aside from knowing his job, the trust the President has
for him is very high. If he resigns, will the President be able to find a replacement he trusts to as much degree or magnitude? He said that the issue was not that Dela Rosa attended a concert but that the problems of his institution should be addressed first. “I said before that the number 1 problem of the PNP is the PNP (itself ) so the solution should come from the PNP as well. PNP should prioritize internal discipline and everything will follow,” Lacson said. The senator, however, said that courtesy resignation was still Dela Rosa’s call. Aside from Lacson, other senators who thought it would not be necessary for Dela Rosa to resign include Senators Alan Peter Cayetano, Sherwin “Win” Gatchalian and Ralph Recto. Cayetano earlier said that he wanted to wait for results of investigation and believed Dela Rosa was doing a good job. Meanwhile, Gatchalian said Dela Rosa should work on redeeming the public’s trust. Recto also urged Dela Rosa to clean up the police ranks dedicate more time to “disprove his critics and to show that he deserves his continued stay in his post.” “But if you are not ordered to resign from PNP, then reform the PNP. Start with acknowledging that problems do exist. Then follow it up with an action plan on how to solved them,”

Recto said. He urged Dela Rosa to also consider a major reshuffle and ignore the political patrons of officers. “Your motto should be: “Bato bato sa langit, ang matanggal huwag magalit,” Recto said. “The bad press you’re getting is due to bad cops. Thus, it can’t be solved by diversionary tactics but by taking out deeply-rooted reasons,” he added. He said the PNP should exert the same efforts in cleaning police ranks as it does in going after drug users and pushers. (PNA)

in the exercise of moral authority and guardianship for the general welfare of these children,” Gatchalian said. Gatchalian filed Senate Resolution No. 268 which directs the appropriate Senate committee to conduct a review of the law’s implementation. Meanwhile, the neophyte senator expressed optimism that a review of the existing law would eventually lower crime rates among children, while prioritizing rehabilitation and reintegration of juvenile delinquents. “Proponents of lowering the age of criminal responsibility are too quick to give up on underprivileged kids in trouble with the law. For me, however, these troubled children deserve the benefit of the doubt,” Gatchalian said. “These kids aren’t lost causes, and I believe that we can still help them turn their lives around by lending
Villages in Maguindanao, Norcot remain under water DATU MONTAWAL, Maguindanao--A man was found dead at the height of floods that affect three towns in North Cotabato and two towns in Maguindanao, officials said. The unidentified man was found floating in the flooded village of Inug-og, Pikit, according to the Pikit Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (MDRRMC). Tahira Kalantongan, Pikit MDRRMC action officer, said it was not clear if the man died due to floods or was murdered. A state of calamity has been declared in this town after flood waters submerged all its 12 villages due to torrential rains and the swelling of Kabacan River. The town council passed a resolution in an emergency session Saturday to place the entire town under state of calamity so the local government can use its calamity fund to assist some 6,000 flood victims, according to town Vice Mayor Otto Montawal. A report culled from the Philippine News Agency a firm but nurturing helping hand,” he added. He further stressed that the government should exhaust all options in trying to fix the current juvenile justice system before “throwing toddlers in jail.” (PNA)

In 2015, the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) had the number of 4Ps targeted beneficiaries with 44,8757 while Maguindanao was the province with the most number of families enrolled in the program. The 11 Mindanao provinces included in DSWD’s top 25 provinces with most number of beneficiaries are: (Province/Number of Target Household Beneficiaries) Maguindanao (with Cotabato City) 200,537; Zamboanga del Sur (140,804); Zamboanga del Norte (110,790), Sulu (107, 368), Lanao del Sur (99,269), Cotabato/ North Cotabato (83,392), Bukidnon (81,895), Misamis Oriental (78,211), Lanao del Norte (70,394), and South Cotabato (65,831). Eleven of the top 25 provinces with the highest number of targeted beneficiaries included in the list of priority areas identified by the Aquino government in its 2015 memorandum under Aquino’s Social Contract come from Mindanao. These priority areas were based on data from the DSWD and the Philippine Statistical Authority (PSA)

Lydia for cooperative effort in restoring thousands of damaged rubber seedlings with fungicides which were supposed to be planted to uplift their lives when this will be harvested in seven years under the Upland Sustainable Agri-forestry Development Program (USAD). USAD is the governor’s flagship program that aims to address widespread poverty among residents living in the upland hinterland villages of the province. He also visited the villages of San Patricio and Comota to distribute relief goods. Hundreds of big logs of Lauan believed to be coming from the mountains were seen near rugged roads of San Patricio while some 50 homes were totally destroyed by strong currents in Lydia. Justiniano Deligero, 81, said he suffered a double whammy in the floods when his house was swept away along with his newly-harvested corn crops stocked in his barn house. “ The rampaging floodwater changed its route towards our homes since the river has already overflowed,” Deligero said. His neighbor Jose Andaya, 74, said he lost 15 sacks of corn in his bodega which were already dried and ready for milling. They were however thankful to God that the floods came rising during day time sparing the loss of lives at the height of the rising waters. Town councilor Allan Lim said even as the floods started to subside there are

using two indicators: high poverty magnitude and high poverty incidence. Three of the remaining 5 priority areas with low 4Ps beneficiaries (compared to other provinces) included due to individual context also come from Mindanao: Davao del Sur is the highest in Region XI, while Camiguin, and Sarangani were included in the 2014 list of the poorest provinces in the Philippines. To enable this administration to deliver on its campaign promise of de-
velopment by inclusion, all agencies should be on the same page regarding the magnitude of the problem which remains to be addressed, instead of depending on the people’s perceptions, especially in the chief executive’s home island. Isn’t in a tragedy that there are even more people in Mindanao who are hungry and poor, yet don’t consider themselves as such?

still several villages left isolated that they had a hard time delivering relief goods to starving stranded residents seeking refuge to higher grounds. He hoped that the rains will stop since their food stocks for relief operations had almost run out. Residents in the village of Angeles where 42 of 46 homes were wiped out by rampaging floodwaters remain stranded and starving in the mountains as a tribal leader only brought 10 sack of rice and other food stuff to fed 80 families since they had a hard time bringing the relief goods because of strong river currents upstream.
knows, is that to get into a fight with China would be like provoking a herd of bulls with a red cloth. As of Monday, January 23, 2017, the new US president’s first work day, the phase ought be over and done with, where the one side crows that it has stuck it to the other and insisting that it has the right worldview. The time of painstaking compromises in a multipolar world order will then begin. And neither Donald Trump, nor Xi Jinping, are to be envied for this task! +++ Email: doringklaus@ gmail.com or follow me on Facebook or Twitter or visit www.germanexpatinthephilippines.blogspot.com or www.klausdoringsclassicalmusic.blogspot.com .

of a declining power such as the US. What links the two is that neither Beijing nor Washington will stop fighting for their countries’ interests. They will only make compromises when this makes sense to them. This actually goes without saying and yet it can be forgotten in these crazy times. Many people are doing everything to consider Xi as their new hero and to criticize Trump. One thing is for sure: nobody benefits from a trade war. A global trade war. In my opinion, it is very unlikely that this could really lead to a war. The political and economic costs would be too high for China. Donald Trump has also made it clear that he thinks that launching the Second Iraq War was one of the worst decisions in US history, “like throwing stones into a bees’ nest.” What he has not said, but

the freedom of navigation of commercial vessels is assured. One good thing is Japan, which lately emerged as a superpower and is having friction with China is an ally of the United Stats and the Philippines. China has also its friends, which I doubt it, they will go into battle in the name of friendship or camaraderie. While we focused our attention so much on heavy rains and floods, let us be aware of possible terrorist attacks that could take place anytime. I warn the authorities to be constantly watchful of movements of people disguised as typhoon victims, but are carrying dynamites or hand grenades. Remember this: tragedies may come in series. A South Korean who was arrested for drugs was
shot dead while inside the police headquarter. This is just horrible. Well, if the mayor of Albuera, Leyte was killed by police while inside his cell, I don’t think there is problem killing a Korean national. There is no special treatment for anybody once you are near a mentally defective government authority. North Korea should be watched very closely. This country is busy with making weapons of mass destruction that could give trouble to people around the world. Satellite images reportedly showed activities in and around missile launching pad. The fat guy, I supposed, thinks nothing but war and death. (Bennex News Service)
Mystery... from page 4
It is ridiculous when the journal is blacklisted in the early edition because there is no record of the index or impact factor. If it has just been published for the first time, how the journal can be the same with the best one. The most ridiculous is the way to judge only based on the black emails. Even the senders are not credible. They might be those who are envious or having another motive. If Jeffrey Beal really has a good intention to improve the intellectuals’ existence, he should have nurtured them. He should have given some motivation how to improve the journals rather than making categories of possibly, probably and potentially predators. He didn’t know how the novice researchers felt being blacklisted like that.
In fact, he has so many enemies in the world. If he is mindful he can join the Association of Librarians in the world. He can establish the body of accreditation together in good and great team. What he did was only being a single person, and waiting for the black emails in his in box emails. After that, he decided to blacklist the journals without notice. Is it a good attitude? Now, the world has noticed that his blog has disappeared. There are many speculations towards this oddly missing blog. Some speculated whether he would prepare for the most professional website rather than only a blog. Some also speculated whether he might come up with a different strategy. Others also speculated that he might be gone forever. He is really a mystery today. But, the world intellectuals must be vigilant. The professional accreditation body is always professional in doing their jobs. Evidences with the documents and others related to verification are needed. Even, in my country, the Accreditation Body can visit the clients and rummage all the documents for the proofs. There are some possibilities of results of that investigation. When all are proven excellent, then the clients are accredited with (A) status. When they are found good, they are accredited with (B) status. But, when they are found less than good, they are not accredited but not blacklisted. However, the clients are still given an opportunity to improve the weaknesses. In a certain period of time the clients are suggested to pro-
pose for accreditation again when they are ready. So, they are not blacklisted. That is elegant and professional and, of course, the attitude of the real intellectuals. It is not like the mystery of the oddly missing blog, owned by Mr. Jeffrey Beall. Editor’s Note: Dr. Djuwari Sarkawi is the Head of Research Journal and Publishing Department, STIE Perbanas Surabaya.
