Police eye ‘hired killer’ to silence 16 y.o. old girl

By MARK FRANCISCO Staff Reporter

POLICE investigators are eyeing allegations that the 16-year-old minor, found dead inside in a hotel here Tuesday morning, was killed by a “hired assassin.”

Nephi L oyola, w ho would turn 17 next week was found dead inside a hotel in Barangay Lapasan Tuesday morning with marks of “strangulation” on her neck.

Chief Insp. Ariel Philip Pontillas, who is investigat-

ing the killing, said that the circumstances surrounding the days and hours before the death of the girl led investigators to suspect that the victim was intentionally killed.

Pontillas said that based on what they had gathered, the victim checked in at hotel – twice – this week with a man in his thirties whom they tagged as the main suspect in the incident.

The police official said they were able to determine that Loyola checked in at

the hotel with the suspect Sunday afternoon and again with the same person the day after.

Pontillas also tagged Loyola’s 19-year-old friend as a person of interest in the case, because she was the one who introduced the victim to the suspect.

The suspect registered himself as one Jason Caram at the hotel register, but Pontillas said they were still determining on whether he was using his real

PH wins case vs. China on West Philippine Sea AMSTERDAM (Reuters)––Judges at an arbitration tribunal in The Hague on Tuesday rejected China’s claims to economic rights across large swathes of the South China Sea in a ruling that will be claimed

as a victory by the Philippines.

“There was no legal basis for China to claim historic rights to resources within the sea areas falling within the ‘nine-dash line’,” the court said, referring to a de-

marcation line on a 1947 map of the sea, which is rich in energy, mineral and fishing resources.

In the 497-page ruling, judges also found that Chinese law enforcement patrols had risked col-

liding with Philippine fishing vessels in parts of the sea and caused irreparable damage to coral reefs with construction work.

Police raid LPG refilling station in Maramag town A C ON SUM E R g roup has lauded the police in Bukidnon for its successful crackdown on illegal liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) refilling even as it asked the Department of Energy (DOE) to check on industry players engage in illegal trade of cooking gas.

Seized in the June 10 raid in Maramag, Bukidnon was a bulk tank containing four tons of LPG and an 8-tonner LPG tanker owned

by Petronas Energy Philippines with plate number CRW 587. The tanker was filling the bulk tank at the time of the police operation.

The National Coalition of Filipino Consumers (NCFC) has said in a statement that the raid on an illegal LPG refilling in Barangay San Miguel, Maramag, Bukidnon last June 10, 2016 and the filing of cases against the operators sends a strong

signal that this dangerous practice needs to be stopped. Raided was the G and L Gas Drive Thru owned by Ronnel Gernal and Ramil Lintuan. Gernal eluded arrest in the raid.

The NCFC called on industry players to impose stricter implementation of fire safety standards in the LPG industry. “Without a supply from legitimate LPG players in the country, there is no way this dangerous and illegal refilling of LPG cylinders and butane canisters could flourish,” said Jayson Luna, NCFC convenor. It called on industry players to check on their “peers in the trade” and the DOE to crack its whip on both the illegal LPG refillers and their supplier of the cooking gas.

“Petronas is morally and legally bound to place public safety over profit, and to respect the rule of

law. We strongly enjoin the Liquified Petroleum Gas Industry Association (LPGIA) to crack its whip on erring members,” the NCFC added, as it lamented that the LPGIA has been recognized by the DOE

as an industry watchdog.

“We made immediate action on the complaint raised after we found out that the compound was used as an illegal LPG refilling station. It was unsafe and located within

the residential area,” said Senior Insp. Erwin Naelga.

Police arrested Zanny Escabosa Torculas of Purok 3, Barangay San Miguel, Maramag, Bukidnon for illegally refilling LPG cylinder in violation of Republic Act 8293 or Trademark Infringement and Unfair Competition under the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines under section 155 and 168 in relation to 170 of RA 8293, Batas Bilang 33 and RA 623.

Also found in the raid conducted on the strength of a search and seizure warrant issued by Judge Isobel Barroso of Regional Trial Court 10 in Malaybalay City were empty LPG cylinders of Gasul, Solane, Pryce Gases and Happy Gaz and hundreds of empty butane canisters.

Naelga said Torculas and Gernal have been charged for possessing, keeping, concealing upon his person and control in his residence, premises, warehouse the LPG tanks. Gernal, one the alleged financier eluded police arrest during the raid.

Naelga said initial investigation reveals that the refilling station operates without the necessary permits like barangay clearance; Fire Safety Inspection Certificate from the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP); Business Permit from the local government unit; Environmental Clearance Certificate from Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR); and Permit to Operate pressure vessel from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE).

The NCFC said that the illegal refilling of LPG tanks posed a public hazard as there is no way for government regulators to monitor and enforce safety standards.

Butane canisters refilled with LPG used in cooking have been blamed for major residential fires throughout the country, resulting in thousands left homeless, and lives and limbs put into direct risk.

Fire safety concerns on the bulk handling of LPG have taken the limelight after an LPG terminal in Calaca,Batangas caught fire in February this year. This resulted in the evacuation of over a thousand residents and the declaration of the town under a state of calamity.

lords in Cagayan de Oro and Cebu than in Manila.

I see this as ridiculous or is he protecting some drug lords? I stayed in Manila for a long time during my student days and I cannot figure out such big districts as Sampaloc, Malate, Ermita, Quiapo, etc. have only 82 drug lords, pushers and users.

000 Will there be a war soon?

The permanent arbitrary tribunal in the Hague will render its decision on July 12 on the disputes of the seas filed by the Philippines against China. The latter declared it will not honor whatever decision on the matter because the area in the Scarborough--subject of the disputes belongs to it.

The sea lane at issue is major traffic for commercial ships around the world besides being filled with oil deposits and other rich minerals. It is worth fighting for! America is in the picture because it wants the passage of ships undisturbed, a thing China resented, hence the rising tension between the two big superpowers. If we noticed, America has deployed its modern and advance fighter jets in the area. What for if there is no prospect of a big war?

000 I congratulate the Philippine troops for killing 40 members and wounding 25 others of the Abu Sayyaf groups in Jolo. The Abu Sayyaf is the master of kidnapping for ransom and inhuman beheading of hostages. They have tremendously exposed us to extreme shame around the

globe. I truly believe they deserve to be annihilated completely to put to an end their terrifying business.

If we can also cut off their heads, the better.

000 Notwithstanding the lapse of several decades, some people are still talking about who really killed Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr., husband of President Cory Aquino and father of immediate past president Noynoy Aquino. To me this is a dead issue. If Cory failed to solve the problem and so with her son Noynoy, who are we too know such thing now?

Some people think it was then President Ferdinand Marcos who ordered the killing, but there never was a concrete evidence linking the latter to the crime. All speculations, therefore, have no basis or the slightest semblance of truth.

000 There must be some special features in shabu that really attract everybody. In Manila, even the poorest people use shabu. In Bacoor, Cavite, 800 shabu drug lords, peddlers and users surrendered. In urbans cities in Metro Manila, hundreds have surrendered to the police. The problem that is in my mind is whether these surrenderees would really stop using shabu and other prohibited drugs. And it is only now that I realized how big the problem of illegal drugs is. Thanks President Digong for your resourcefulness on drugs.

‘Do the right thing’

THINK a minute.

Of all the jobs in news and journalism, being a war correspondent is the most dangerous. Some reporters are captured as prisoners, some escape, and some die.

Young 25-year-old Leonard Spencer was a reporter for the London Morning Post. His assignment was the Boer War in South Africa.

Leonard was riding a train to the frontlines of battle when suddenly there was a violent crash. The Boer army had ambushed and attacked this British train.

During the shooting, Leonard jumped out into all the bullets and exploding shells to help clear the train tracks.

In fact, after the train pulled out of this trap, with many British soldiers saved, the one man who was left behind to face the enemy alone was this young newspaper reporter.

He was captured and put into the Pretoria prison, which was world famous for its high security and few escapes.

Amazingly, young Leonard escaped this famous prison. Yet he still had 300 miles of enemy territory to survive and find his way through to freedom.

He walked alone for many days and nights, continually dodging enemy soldiers. Tired, hungry and thirsty, he finally reached a

mining town and knocked on the door of the only British person living there.

Leonard was then smuggled onto a train to the British consul and safety.

You know what’s really amazing? Leonard Spencer is not remembered for his bravery in the South African Boer War. You see, this young journalist who saved a train of British soldiers and escaped the enemy against nearly impossible odds, continued to do the impossible the rest of his life. We know him as Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, England’s brave leader and Prime Minister who helped save Europe and the world from Adolf

against the use of illegal drugs, let us now begin arresting some members of congress who are allegedly known users or protectors too. They also deserve to be killed upon sight. We should not confine ourselves in smaller groups of users who could not even afford to hire legal counsels if their relatives are shot dead.

000 This is the case of a lovely girl from Mindanao who had two sweethearts - - a Filipino and an American.

The Filipino boyfriend had intimate moments with the girl. The American who was serious about her flew all the way from America to marry her. He spent a lot of money, giving gifts to the girl and family. The girl fell in love too with the American. It is a confused love, that knows no bounds.

She maintained two lovers at the same time enjoying what she thought was a blessing. One day the police discovered her lifeless body in her home without a clue who murdered her. It was the end of a romance that proved one more that love triangle is destined to end in tears. It should serve a lesson to the girls with bad habits, or foolish. (Bennex News Service)

Teacher’s take home pay: P36,000 per month n Solon seeks

to increase the salary grade of public school teachers

By Lorelei V. Castillo

A re-elected lawmaker has appealed to his colleagues in the 17th Congress to support the country’s public school teachers by increasing their basic monthly salary to at least P36,000.

Rep. Raul Del Mar (1st District, Cebu City) said public school teachers are among underpaid workers in society. Despite the fact that they are heralded as molders of children’s future, they receive only less than twenty thousand a month each for their basic salary.

Del Mar filed a bill that seeks to upgrade the salary grade level of teachers in public elementary and

Screen grab from philippinesbasiceducation.us

secondary schools from the present Salary Grade (SG) 11 to SG 20.

“Teachers are considered to be the prime mover of the

education system; hence, the government needs to give priority to their interest and welfare,” Del Mar said.

Del Mar said based on

Is Robredo entitled to attend Cabinet meetings?

LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “…`O Sovereign LORD! You made the heavens and earth by your strong hand and powerful arm. Nothing is too hard for you!’…”

(Jeremiah 32:17, the Holy Bible, NLT).

-oooIS ROBREDO ENTITLED TO AT TEND CABINET MEETINGS? Vic Somintac, the Malacanang reporter of radio station DZEC (1062 kHz) and my partner in the 6 a.m., Mondays to Fridays, program called “Tambalang Batas at Somintac”,

raised an interesting point last Monday, July 11, 2016, over the attendance of Vice President Leni Robredo in the Cabinet meeting also on July 11, 2016.

Somintac asked: is there a need for Robredo to attend the Cabinet meeting considering that the department to which President Duterte appointed her to, the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC), had been effectively demoted from being a Cabinet level office to a mere unit under the Cabinet secretary which

R.A. 9048 Form No.10.1 (LCR O)

is also under the Office of the President?

Vic said Duterte effected this demotion of the HUDCC in his Executive Order No. 1, Series of 2016, his first-ever executive order. If that is the case, Somintac argued on air, then, the proper Cabinet level officer who has to attend Cabinet meetings should be the Cabinet secretary, who is former Bohol Mayor Leoncio Evasco. I wonder how Malacanang and Robredo will answer this?

the third phase of the Salary Standardization Law (SSL 3), public school educators currently receive a minimum salary of P18,549. Govern-

Kakampi mo ang batas

ment employees under SG 20, meanwhile, have a basic monthly rate of P36, 567.

Del Mar pushed for the measure citing Article XIV, Section 4 [1] of the Constitution, which provides that the State recognizes the complementary roles of public and private institutions in the educational system and shall exercise reasonable supervision and regulation of education institutions.

Article XIV, Section 5 [5] of the Constitution also states that The State shall assign the highest budgetary priority to education and ensure that teaching will attract and retain its rightful share of the best available talents through the adequate remuneration and other means of job satisfaction and fulfillment.

Under Del Mar’s measure, the upgrade in the teachers’ salary shall be adjusted in accordance with their qualifications and length of service and shall not be prejudiced by across the board adjustments.

The bill mandates the national government to allocate the necessary amount

to fund the salary increase of educators, pprovided, that the salary increase of public school teachers shall take priority over other non-educational and nonagricultural budgetary allocations.

It also requires the Department of Education (DepEd) to immediately come up with the specific programmed budget needed to cover the expenses for the upgrading in salary levels for all the corresponding teacher plantilla positions over a period of five years.

This is to allow the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) to make the necessary budgetary adjustments to facilitate the smooth implementation of this Act. The DepEd and the DBM are directed to promulgate the necessary rules and regulations to implement the provisions of this Act. “To give meaning to the spirit and intent of the above mentioned constitutional provisions, there has been a compelling need to upgrade the salary grade of our public school teachers,” Del Mar stressed.

Haul... from page A1

mostly from the five villages of this city, which were considered “drug-infested.”

These barangays are Tinago, Carmen Annex, San Roque, Sta. Cruz, Triempo, all coastal barangays of this city.

The 11 drug lords surrendered recently to Mayor Parojinog, who threatened to name them in public if they refused to surrender and cooperate.

The drug dealers and users swore to cease and desist from illegal drugs use and trading before PAO chief Alberto Cagaanan and Assistant City Prosecutor Gines Biduya.

Mayor Parojinog, Vice Mayor Nova Princess Parojinog, along with other city and barangay officials, as well as lawyers from the PAO witnessed the swearing of the drug dealers and users at the Ramiro City Gymnasium.

Meanwhile, Mayor Parojinog vehemently denied any link to illegal drugs trade, as alleged by news reports and social media posts.

Parojinog was linked by media reports to Herbert Colanggo, alias “Ampang”, who reportedly married his daughter, Nova. But, Mayor Parojinog denied this, saying his daughter did not marry Colanggo, who is in the New Bilibid Prison now.

Parojinog pointed to his political detractors for besmirching his family’s reputation by linking him to illegal drugs trade.

“Pag may nahuhuli sa ibang lugar, lagi nilang sinasabing dito sa Ozamiz galing para madali na lang nilang i link sa akin,” he said.

Parojinog said even before he assumed as city mayor in 2001, his advocacy is to clean the city of illegal drugs, and his constituents continue to support him, now he is serving his last term as city mayor, because of his advocacy.

As this developed, the City Council has passed a resolution to support the budgetary needs in rehabilitating severely-affected drug users and financially supporting the livelihood of drug pushers and runners for renewed commitments in their lives.

Authorities will evaluate the condition of the confessed drug users from severe to less addicted in granting them free rehabilitation.

He has urged big-time pushers to go into other businesses, away from illegal drugs.

The City Government is also providing monetary support for citizen’s arrests, ranging from P10,000 to P30,000 as reward money for those who are caught pushing illegal drugs in the city.

DFA lauds UN Arbitral Tribunal’s ruling in favor of PHL’s arbitration case vs. China

By Benjamin Nathaniel T. Bondoc of the Philippine News Agency

THE Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) lauded Tuesday the ruling released by the United Nations Permanent Court of Arbitration which favored the Philippines’ arbitration case against China over the West Philippine Sea territorial row.

“The Philippines welcomes the issuance yesterday, July 12, 2016, of the Award by the Arbitral Tribunal constituted by the Permanent Court of Arbitration under Annex VII of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) on the arbitration proceedings initiated by the Philippines with regard to the South China Sea (West Philippine Sea),” Foreign Affairs Secretary Perfecto Yasay said in a statement.

In addition, the DFA said the country’s experts are now in the process of “studying the Award with the care and thoroughness that this significant arbitral outcome deserves.”

The Department, meanwhile, called on all parties concerned to “exercise restraint and sobriety” with regard to the said decision.

In addition, Yasay said the country strongly affirms its respect for the verdict as an important development in dealing with the territorial dispute.

“The Philippines strongly affirms its respect for this milestone decision as an important contribution to ongoing efforts in addressing disputes in the South China Sea. The decision upholds international law, particularly the 1982 UNCLOS,” the statement added.

The DFA chief also emphasized the Philippines’ commitment “to efforts to pursue the peaceful resolution and management of disputes with a view to promoting and enhancing peace and stability in the region.”

At 5 p.m. Tuesday (Manila time), the tribunal handed down its decision on the case which invalidated China’s claim over its “historic rights” to the disputed waters, stressing that its ‘Nine-Dash-Line’ claim has no legal basis.

The ruling also added that China violated the Philippines’ sovereign rights in its exclusive economic zone through meddling with

School gardening enhances kids’ nutrition

By HAZEL MARABE RUSIANA, RN School Nurse Malaybalay City Division

THE influence of fastfood stores, changing lifestyles with both parents working, a poor knowledge of dietary nutrition and reduced intake of fruits and vegetables are contributory factors to the problem of malnutrition among schoolchildren.

Recently, the government of the Philippines has put in frameworks to support a program of shool level gardening, bringing

together agencies such as the Department of Education and Department of Agriculture. The school feeding program is receiving increased attention in the past two years. Overall, the opportunities for leveraging the nutrition contributions of school gardens have been considerably enhanced.

In the past few years, the Philippines has a national program on school gardening. The Interna-

tional Institute of Rural Reconstruction and Food and Nutrition Research Institute of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) are actually working on a program to demonstrate the value of linking three related areas of school nutrition: gardening, feeding and nutrition education. This program is designed to generate evidence on the value of school gardens and to establish on the ground demonstrations of the value of linking feeding programs to school

garden programs.

The school gardening program uses an environmentally sound approach to produce a diverse range of vegetables with no chemical inputs of any kind. A diverse garden guarantees good nutrition providing Vitamin A and C, iron, calcium, protein and various other micronutrients. To link gardens and the school feeding program, standardized recipes that are appetizing to school kids are developed.

The Importance of Research in the field of Education

By Magdalina B. de Guzman

Teachers normally encounter common problems and issues related to classroom instruction that affects the academic performance of pupils. As the front liner of rendering quality education, teachers tend to do some activities, programs and interventions that can help improved the teaching learning process.

Thus, they use any form of methods and strategies in teaching hoping that it will be the best tool that address the needs of the learner.

This time, the Department of Education (DepEd) Division of Cagayan de Oro strengthened the implementation of conducting Action Research in diagnosing the core problem of every classroom situation that would affect the performance of the learner. Budget allocation for teachers and adminis-

trators in different seminar workshops and trainings is more likely focused on how to improve the skills in conducting research in any form. Close monitoring and supervision among pilot schools have been implemented too. Learning Action Cell or LAC session is also conducted in ally grade level in every school. This is to ensure that knowledge gain from seminar training workshop on Action Research will be fully exercised by the school administrators and teachers in any classroom and school problems. Research served as the best tool to identify the core problems exist. Data collected will be the baseline to create appropriate intervention that will address the problem. Moreover, such ways and means can able the teacher to have professional growth and it will sharpen their mind to have initiative in creating accurate teaching and learning materials that enables them to discover new approach of improving the classroom instruction that leads to quality education.

involving a husband and his wife if the wife is being subjected by the husband to violent acts or behavior?

This is provided for under several provisions of Republic Act 9262, notably its Sections 14 and 30.

When confronted with a situation where the man is committing violence against his wife, or his live-in partner, or common-law wife, or with whom he is maintaining an amorous relationship, the barangay captain can enter the place where the violence is being committed, take away the wife, or even arrest the violent man, even without a warrant.

Responding to aid a woman under the foregoing situation is actually treated by law as a duty on the part of the barangay captain, or of any of his kagawads if he is absent from the barangay.

In fact, if the chairman or his kagawads fail to help a woman who is suffering violence from her husband or lover, they could be liable criminally, civilly, and administratively.

-oooAND KNK HAS 10 PROOFS FROM THE BIBLE: May I take this opportunity to share with our readers here what we at the Anak ng Diyos Kadugo Ni Kristo (AND KNK, or Children of God Blood Kin of the Christ) Church consider as ten proofs from the Bible which attest that AND KNK is the Church that Jesus put up in the Philippines to fulfill His end-time work.

These are: first, proof about the name of the Church; second, proof that the Church is the Church Jesus put up according to Matthew 16; third, proof about the leader of the Church; fourth, proof about the symbol or logo by which the Church can be identified; fifth, proof about the manner by which the praise and worship of the Church is patterned after the manner by which early believers conducted their own praise and worship.

The sixth proof is about how Church members pray in humility and in calling on the Name of God at the start and end of each prayer; seventh is about Church members’ having been chosen and being sent to fulfill God’s work; eight is about the duty of members to be witnesses for Jesus; ninth is about their raising of hands when greeting or bidding goodbye; and tenth is about members being

baptized into the work of God. Explanations next time, God willing!

the case brought by the Philippines, has said it will not be bound by any ruling.

Senators welcome international arbitral tribunal ruling on WPS Senators have welcomed the ruling of the Permanent Court of Arbitration in favor of the arbitration case filed by the Philippines against China in the disputed West Philippine Sea. “I welcome the final and binding ruling of the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, which puts clarity to the claims of both the Philippines and China in the West Philippines Sea,” Senate President Franklin Drilon said in a press statement.

Drilon said the Philippines has stated that it will comply with the ruling and expects China, as a party to the United Nation Convention on the Laws of the Sea (UNCLOS), to also comply.

“I call on other nations to respect the ruling and help maintain the rule of law.

We hope that the decision puts to rest any tension, mend strained relations, and restore goodwill among countries in the region.

ASEAN and China can now move forward to finalize

the Code of Conduct to ensure peace and stability in the South China Sea,” Drilon said.

The Senate leader said the Philippines will study the ruling and its ramifications, and plan its next steps, “bearing in mind the utmost need for peaceful settlement of disputes in accordance with international law and the maintenance of friendly relations among nations.”

With the recent decision, Senator Francis Pangilinan said Filipino fishermen can now fish without fear in the WPS. “During the ensuing bilateral talks, we should ensure two things: that the corals and the maritime ecology in the South China Sea are not destroyed, and that Filipino fishermen are able to exercise their livelihood sustainably and to fish in their traditional fishing grounds without fear, and in solidarity with fishers of other nations,” Pangilinan said.

Pangilinan said China should not lose face, seeing the ruling as way to start the stalled China-Philippines diplomatic relations.

“Together with having a new administration, the ruling allows both parties to come to the negotiating table with fresh perspectives,” Pangilinan said.

“I suggest we remind China of the centuries’ old people-to-people interactions between our nations, and of the similar historical indignities we faced as colonies of foreign powers. Of the latter, we can tell them that their occupation of the reefs in the West Philippine Sea resonates to that past,” he added.

Neophyte Senator Joel Villanueva described the decision as landmark ruling of the world’s oldest international arbitration tribunal based in The Hague, Netherlands.

“I am elated at the verdict of the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague on Beijing’s claims to parts of the West Philippine Sea. I applaud the Philippine government’s commitment to the peaceful resolution of territorial disputes with

our neighbours by invoking the Tribunal’s jurisdiction.

This is a victory not only for the Philippines but more importantly for the Rule of Law,” Villanueva said.

Villanueva expressed optimism that China will soon recognize the ruling as it will have a lasting implication on the global trade given that the West Philippine Sea is one of the busiest trade routes in the world.

“I call on China to respect the Tribunal’s decision and for both parties to work together for our mutual benefit as all neighbours must,” Villanueva said.

Senator Paolo Benigno Aquino IV congratulated the Philippine delegation that worked hard to contest China’s nine-dash line claims on the WPS. Aquino, cousin of former President Benigno Aquino III, was referring to former Solicitor General Florin Hilbay, Supreme Court Justices Antonio Carpio and Francis Jardeleza, and former Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) Secretary Albert del Rosario.

“This decision provides the best chance for the Philippines to have a favorable outcome in any future multilateral or bilateral talks.

This is our “alas” (ace),” Aquino said.

Former Justice Secretary and now Senator Leila de Lima said the ruling affirmed the Philippines’ right to its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and would limit China’s expansion plans in the WPS. “With this ruling, it is hoped that the present administration will be properly guided in its future actions, especially in its declared bias for bilateral talks which has only proven to be always one-sided in favor of the world power at the other end of the table,” De Lima said.

De Lima said the ruling also give the Philippines the international legal basis under the UNCLOS to challenge China’s further reclamation in the disputed area.

“Together with our western allies like the United States, Japan, and the in-

ternational community in general, we should utilize this ruling to the utmost in defense of our sovereignty, EEZ entitlements and freedom of navigation in the West Philippine Sea,” she said.

Senator Vicente Sotto III said the important thing now is for China to honor and recognize the ruling.

Senator Juan Edgardo Angara said efforts to settle issues will still be very important given the nature of international law.

The Philippines has been questioning China’s ninedash line claim which encompasses areas within its exclusive economic zone.

name or an alias.

Pontillas said that the witness might be charged with human trafficking if she does not cooperate with the police.

The witness, who identified herself as Laling (not her real name), claimed that she received a call from an unidentified man over her cell phone last Friday specifically asking her to locate Loyola so the two could meet.

The three persons, then agreed to a meeting at the hotel last Sunday afternoon with Laling fetching Loyola and delivering her to the suspect who already checked in at his room.

Laling also claimed that the suspect gave her Php 2,000 as an expression of gratitude. After two hours, Loyola called Laling to tell her that things went okay for the duo.

A day later, Loyola then asked Laling to fetch her again because the suspect had asked to meet Loyola again.

Security cameras tracked Loyola going inside the suspect’s room at 1:30 Monday afternoon. Barely an hour later, the camera registered the suspect coming out of the hotel.

At 12:40 a.m. early Tuesday, a routine checkup by a hotel room boy led to the discovery of Loyola’s body with her head wrapped in

a cellophane bag.

Based on these circumstances, Pontillas believed that the Loyola was the intended target of an assassination, considering that she was the one specifically requested by the suspect over the phone to be delivered at his room.

Pontillas said they are checking on the status of the two counts of rape filed by the victim against a village chief here last April 2016 with the City Prosecutor’s Office here on whether it had something to with her murder. This paper has a copy of the complaint, but is withholding the name of the village official.

her sons who were shot a private security about 6 o’clock Wednesday morning.

She said did not identify her sons and the two others, one of them reportedly died on arrival at the provincial hospital in Bukidnon.

Mayantao said that two security guards shot her sons and the two other IP members.

Florencio Narido, Jr., the legal counsel of the National Commissions of Indigenous People (NCIP) in Northern Mindanao, has confirmed the report.

He said that the incident took place in Lupiagan, Sumilao, Bukidnon where a row over the land boundaries with a group of IPs and the company’s management are at loggerhead.

Narido said he left for Bukidnon early Wednesday to assist in the conduct of the investigation with the NCIP legal counsel and the police in Bukidnon.

According to Narido, the conflict was on the right of way because the IPs have complained that the Ramcar management has reportedly overlapped its claim over the ancestral lands.

“The IPs within the ancestral land claims have been issued titles under the agrarian reform, but the Ramcar insists that they have gained titles of the properties as the company’s pasture lease,” Narido said.

Narido said that the company hired private security guards, most of them, are also members of the IPs to secure the disputed farming land.

He said that an initial investigation showed that Ramcar has not acquired a pasture lease of the area, which the environmental officials declared as “forest land.”

Misor coal-fired power plant sync up with Mindanao grid VILLANUEVA, Misamis Oriental--The FDC Misamis Power Corporation (FDC Misamis) of the Filinvest Group yesterday announced the successful synchronization of the first unit of its 405 megawatts (MW) flagship project, the biggest power plant in Mindanao.

“This is in line with the Duterte’s administration’s thrust to promote regional growth most especially in Mindanao,” FDC Misamis Vice Chairman Andrew T. Gotianun Jr. said.

Located in the Phividec Industrial Estate in Villanueva,

Misamis Oriental, the power plant is a multi-billion peso investment that uses the latest in clean coal technology: the circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler technology.

Considered as the cleanest process to burning coal, the technology is also known for having higher steam generator efficiency thus lowering carbon emissions.

FDC Misamis is a subsidiary of FDC Utilities, Inc. (FDCUI) and a member of the Gotianunled Filinvest Development Corporation.

“Commercial operations is expected after the completion

of reliability tests in the coming weeks,” states Juan Eugenio L. Roxas, FDC Misamis Head. “We know how critical the project is to help bring much needed power to the Mindanao grid. We deeply appreciate the commitment and dedication of our FDC Team, as well as our contractors, to meet our assurance to deliver power to our customers at the soonest time possible.”

Contractual commitments have been secured for more than 80% of the project’s net capacity with various distribution utilities and large industrial customers

in Mindanao. “This will help ensure the supply of reliable and competitively-priced power for the province and the rest of the region,” Roxas adds.

According to Mario R. Pangilinan, FDCUI President and Chief Operating Officer, the power plant is also expected to help secure investment potentials in the Mindanao area. “Mindanao needs to grow like the rest of the country like Luzon and Visayas.

And one of the things needed for the growth is attraction of investors through more power facilities.”

Stakeholders envision ‘ecologically balanced’ Cagayan de Oro, Tagoloan river basins by 2022

NONgovernment organizations, civil society groups, and local government units have envisioned for ecologically balanced–– provide sustainable livelihood, and inclusively and collaboratively managed by 2022––river basins for Cagayan de Oro and Tagoloan.

Tagoloan town in Misamis Oriental is located to the east of Cagayan de Oro City and located south-east of the Macajalar Bay, according to the online encyclopedia, en.wikipedia.org.

The new vision of the stakeholders resulted from the workshop anchored on the Theory of Change, held from June 29 to July 1 in Cagayan de Oro City.

As a process, Theory of Change involves identifying a long-term goal, necessary assumptions to achieve that goal, strategies to be executed by the organization, and developing performance assessment indicators for each

assumption and strategy, including writing reports and experiential narratives to encapsulate the theory.

This can be achieved through inclusive involvement of all stakeholders, implementation of sustainable livelihood program, proper management of waste, and stringent adherence to environmental and ecological policies and regulations.

“I thought that this workshop won’t respect our cultural practices but I’m wrong,” Datu Dungkuan “Rio” Besto, one of the indigenous people (IP) leaders from Miarayon, Talakag, Bukidnon. “The process highlights our role as protectors. We protect the river basin because it is our life.”

Cagayan de Oro River Basin Management Council and Tagoloan River Basin Management Council form part of 10-member Mindanao River Basin Organization.

The Mindanao River Basin covers 21,503 square kilometers across four regions and ten provinces

Pangilinan affirms that this is in line with the direction of the newly appointed Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary.

Prior to his appointment, DOE Secretary Alfonso G. Cusi said in an earlier statement, “I will strive to do my best to help the Duterte administration achieve electrification of the entire country, ensure reliable, steady and affordable power supply and work towards greater energy self-sufficiency as part of its agenda of sustained economic growth, social progress and political stability in the next six years.”
