Three NPA rebels captured in chance meet with foot soldiers By CHRIS V. PANGANIBAN

SAN FRANCISCO, Agusan del Sur -- Army soldiers who were on foot patrol in a remote village of Veruela town captured three communist guerrillas when they surprisingly chanced upon them carrying sack loads of firearms and ammunitions.

The platoon of 26th Infantry Battalion soldiers took advantage of the situation and in no time collared the New Peoples Army rebels known as Bernie S Perez @ Ariel, Joel S Perez @ Jo and Nino S Perez @ Onin. Research done by the operatives and police revealed that Bernie S Perez @Ariel has a standing

Warrant of Arrest for the crime of Murder. Recovered from them were two improvised explosive devices with blasting caps and wires, an M16 Armalite rifle, an M1 Garand rifle, a caliber 45 pistol, a caliber 38 revolver and several rounds of ammunitions. See meet, page 11

Ozamiz peace and order council to ask NBI to probe shooting of 9 persons By GERRY LEE GORIT Correspondent

OZAMIZ CITY -- The shooting to death of nine persons by the local police last week will be the subject of an investigation as the City Peace and Order Council (CPOC) is set to request the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to verify if those who were killed were actual members of a robbery gang after their relatives and neighbors asserted their innocence. In a report, the Ozamiz city police said a group of armed personalities engaged them in a firefight resulting to the bloodbath. Six other individuals, a few of them women, were arrested following the encounter. Police said they were conducting a follow-up operation when they chanced upon some members of the group in Barangays Cavinte and Balintawak last Thursday, June 1, that led to the shooting of the suspects. Taken from the suspects were firearms, including a shotgun, M16 rifle, pistols and ammunitions of various types, and packets of what authorities believed as shabu. Police identified those who were killed as Francisco

Manzano, Joel Espina Mira, Jerry Manzano, Romeo Libaton, Lito Manisan, Alfie Mahusay, Anjun Simene, Consorcio Rubio Sr. and a still unidentified individual. Arrested were Jonner Libatug, Laureto Ugmad, Janice Manzano, Carmelita Manzano, Monaliza Ugmad, and PO2 Diosdao Hinoctan Jr. Hinoctan is said to be a member of the Tangub city police, who was present together with the suspects at the crime scene. But eyewitnesses’ accounts said the men who were shot to death were just having a drinking session that day. The victims’ neighbors have also told local officials that most of those killed were peasants who were just enjoying themselves. Ozamiz Vice Mayor Nova Princess Parojinog said the City Peace and Order Council (CPOC) found the testimonies of those who witnessed the shooting as sufficient enough for the NBI to conduct an investigation. Parojinog, the CPOC vice chair, said the NBI must take into consideration the version of the people in Cavinte and Balintawak who saw the incident. “For the truth to come

out, it would be best if the NBI will investigate [the shooting], by talking to the people who were there who saw what really happened,” Parojinog said.

She added that witnesses will surely open up if the NBI will conduct the investigation. Parojinog said the CPOC is expected to submit a

council resolution and request letter to the NBI regional office anytime this week. During the CPOC meeting held on Monday

afternoon at the Ozamiz City Hall, village leaders of Cavinte and Balintawak both denied the victims as members of a robbery group. See ask, page 11

Lopez: with Martial Law in effect, prices in Iligan City should remain stable ILIGAN CITY—In response to a report that prices of goods, specifically rice, have suddenly doubled, reaching almost PhP 5,000.00 per 50 kilograms, National Price Coordinating Council (NPCC) Chair and Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Secretary Ramon Lopez, DTI Undersecretary for Consumer Protection Ted Pascua and DTI-Fair Trade Enforcement Bureau officials immediately conducted ground inspection

Major decision EVERY now and then, we make decisions, either in our family, our career or even in our own life. Sometimes, we consult people on what to do when we are confronted with challenges, when we are to choose one over the other options. And consulting people is one way of ascertaining the pros and cons of matter that we are called upon to decide and make a choice. Indeed, making a choice is a decision. And in the final analysis, it is only us who can make the final decision. Whether it will succeed or fail, we are to blame only ourselves. As far as I can recall, the major decision I made was when I decided to leave my parents even as I was still a teenager so I can pursue my college education. I

Besides, I could foresee then that if I would join my classmates in trying our luck in the jungles of Manila, the only job we could land in would either be as factory worker or laborer. And personally, I hate myself landing in such kind of job. Even if I am a son of a poor family, yet I have ambitions in life. So I braved myself all the challenges coming my way as I was struggling to finish my college education. So for four years, my routine was to do household chores during the day, and attend classes in the afternoon until the evenings. And it was not as easy as walking in the park. And my perseverance paid up. And months after finishing my college education, I landed a job in the local government.

Raul G. Moldez

As I reflect today of my journey based on that hard and tough decision I made even when I was still a teenager, I can say that it was not a bad decision after all. Such a decision catapulted me to the pedestal which I call success. This may be a small success compared with the achievement of others. But at least it has given me a certain degree of pride and joy. And as poet Emily Dickenson said “success is counted the sweetest by those who never succeed.” **** Email me at rgmoldez@ gmail.com

am a son of a poor farmer in Southern Leyte. They could not afford to send me to college. So I packed up my things and went to Mindanao. I stayed in my grandfather in Cagayan de Oro and studied college as a working student. While most of my high school classmates went to Manila to find a job, I went to Mindanao with high hopes I can finish a degree. It was a tough and hard decision I made. I was still too young to be away from the guidance of my parents. For me, I still need the parental care of my parents. But at the back of my mind, I was determined and willing to be away from my parents and brothers in exchange for a bright future. After all, if I would succeed, it would be their pride.

American interests alone. But what he has done should now prompt all of the world to look at climate change and global warming from another equally-important perspective never before considered by scientists and political leaders alike. Indeed, Trump’s arguments against the climate pact is totally understandable and frighteningly pragmatic: the pact would stymie US’s growth because it is prohibited under it to build additional coal power plants, while China and India can continue to building coal power plants on the other hand. Trump is correct. This set-up, mostly pushed by former US President Barrack Obama, “would undermine (US) economy, hamstring our workers, weaken our sovereignty, impose unacceptable legal risks, and put us at a permanent disadvan-

tage to the other countries of the world…” (See https:// www.bloomberg.com/…/ trump-said-to-plan-withdrawal-f…). -ooo PARIS CLIMATE PACT IS BOUND TO FAIL, TOO: While the courses of action listed down by the countries that support the Paris climate pact constitute one significant step towards fighting off global warming and climate change, it is important to note that it has completely avoided what the Word of God, the Christian Bible, is saying as the cause of this worldwide environmental degradation. In an international culture of grossly ignoring what has been written in the Bible for quite some time now, this deliberate avoidance of what it says on many matters clearly has caused a lot of tragedies among mankind. One of

Atty. Batas Mauricio

these tragedies is global warming and climate change which the Bible accurately predicted to happen. That the Bible is being ignored once again in an important international agreement on how to fight environmental destruction such as the Paris climate pact could only lead to the same failures and disappointments all over again, similar to the failures and disappointments that attended previous climate agreements even if trillions of dollars have already been spent on the courses of action launched pursuant to those agreements. -ooo WHAT CAUSED GLOBAL WARMING?

Going Through Hot Water

Think a minute… “A tea bag isn’t worth much until it’s been through some hot water.” There’s a saying in boxing: “Everybody’s got a plan—until they’ve been hit!” Sooner or later, life is going to hit and knock you down. Whether you get back up or not is your choice. Almost all people’s successes are built on their former failures. A very successful man was asked if he had ever failed. He answered: “Only in life.” The fact is, even after we’ve been knocked down we can still use our past mistakes

and failures to build a bridge to our success. You know that you’re the only one who can kill your dream by quitting. Remember that just falling in the water is not what drowns you; it’s staying down there that does. Just like kites fly high because the wind pushes against them, so problems that oppose you can actually help you succeed, if you choose to believe and use them that way. There was a man who was the only survivor from a shipwreck. He drifted

to an uninhabited island where he built a hut for his shelter. One evening after he returned from searching for food, he found his little hut on fire. Early the next morning he awoke to find a ship that had come in during the night. When the captain came on shore he told the man: “We saw your smoke signal so we came to rescue you.” Everything this man owned and valued in his hut had to be destroyed before he could be saved. Sometimes our Maker even uses our pain to get our attention, so we can

Sustainability crucial in school-based feeding, vegetable gardening programs Report by Stephen Pedroza

In the recent joint visits to a handful of public elementary schools in Cagayan de Oro City, Xavier University - Ateneo de Cagayan’s Jose P. Rizal School of Medicine (JPRSM), Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH), and the CDO division of the Department of Education (DepEd) saw the importance of sustaining the school-based feeding and vegetable gardening programs toward improving child nutrition. In the policy brief on “Improving Nutritional Outcomes of School Feeding for Filipino Children,” three major points were fleshed out from the Vegetables Go to School (VGtS) program engagements: (1)

Child nutrition contributes to the country’s overall development. (2) School-based feeding is crucial to the nutritional rehabilitation of children but it is not enough. (3) Good Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WaSH) practices combined with school feeding gives better nutritional rehabilitation results. “VGtS is an integrated school-based program that includes school gardening, WaSH, hygiene intervention, and feeding for Filipino children,” said Dr. Jana Gerold of Swiss TPH. “Based on the evidence in the Philippines and all the other countries, we have seen that only the integrated approach actually harnesses significant findings in terms of contributing to child

For the school year in schools with toilets; and in schools with year-round See crucial, page 9 2014-2015, VGtS utilized DepEd’s secondary data for weight, height, and Body Mass Index (before and after school feeding) of enrolled schoolchildren. For SYs 2015-2017 and 2016-2017, the said program collected its own primary data before and after school feeding. The data from the 16 target DepEd elementary schools of Cagayan de Oro over the three academic years were analyzed and the researchers found out: Responsibilities • BMI increases with • Answer and direct phone calls 120 days of school-based feeding; • Accommodate Ads bookings from Advertisers • BMI declines during • Write and distribute email, letters, faxes and forms vacation months; • Check, reply and send emails to clients and advertisers • BMI increase is better • Maintain contact lists and Data base in schools with 24/7 potable • Submit daily ads and production reports water supply; • Entertain and assist walk-in advertisers and guests

By Charity Mae P. Goylan

With the theme “To protect, love and care the Mother Earth”, Alternative Learning System, Division of Tangub City initiated a tree planting activity at

Brgy. Sicot, Tangub City last November 21, 2016. The said activity was participated by the Education Supervisor in ALS Mr. Porferio A. Mosiquera, Education Program Specialist Mrs. Jomah Lee U.

Jakosalem, Brgy. Chairwoman Jocelyn Sarajena, 4 District ALS Coordinator, 5 Mobile Teachers and 30 Instructional Managers. With their bolo and shovel, the ALS Implementers planted 300 seedlings of Ipil-

ipil, Tipolo and Mahogany along the riverbank of the said barangay to help the community to have a shield and defense for floods and soil erosion. Pick of the heat and sweat was being ignored by everyone and

Sustainable Integrated Area Development Management (SIADM) Approach The DENR adopts the Sustainable Integrated Area Development Management (SIADM) Approach as one of the pillars of governance in the conservation and management of the environment and natural resources. It is centered on watershed ecosystem rehabilitation and development and implemented through convergence with stakeholders, including academe, networks of environmentalists, the private sector and government agencies. Four municipalities in Lanao provinces will benefit from the project located in Nunungan, Lanao del Norte and Digkilaan, Iligan City, Butig, Lanao del Sur and Marawi City. It covers Nunungan (headwater of Maranding River Watershed), Digkilaan Subwatershed of Mandulog River Watershed; Malaig Subwatershed and Saguiaran – Marawi Sub watershed of Lake Lanao Watershed.

continuing planting for the sake of communities safe. Hardship and dedication was shown in everyone’s face as they reached the finished line. They showed love and care for the Mother Nature to give back the beauty that the nature had given. After one month, ALS implementers went back the said barangay to check the status of the seeds that being planted. There were 230 seedlings had grown and

70 of them died. With this result, ALS Implementers have a plan to set another tree planting activity to fill in those failed seedlings. Dedication with love and undying effort for the sake of community prevails in the blood of ALS Family thus, whatever hardships and barriers may come along the way, and ALS Family will never give up and will fight hand in hand for achieving success and progress.

T he 1 6 el e me nt ar y schools involved in CDO were: Balubal ES, Baluarte ES, Balulang ES, Bongbongon ES, Bulua Central ES, Canitoan ES, Cugman ES, Fr. William Masterson ES, Indahag ES, Iponan ES, Kiam-is ES, Lapasan ES, Lumbia ES, Pedro Oloy N Roa ES, Taguanao ES, and Upper Carmen ES. On Monday, May 29, Bulua Central ES, Pedro Oloy N. Roa ES, and Fr William Masterson ES were visited by the team prior to the opening of classes in June. The team met with the school principals, feeding and gardening officers to talk about the outcomes, challenges, and recommendations on VGtS and its partner institutions, such as Gawad Kalinga and various food manufacturing companies. The XU-Swiss TPHDepEd team also met with CDO Mayor Oscar Moreno for a courtesy call, which also served as an opportunity to thank the city leader for his active support in the program. Paradigm shift in child nutrition In the Philippines, child nutrition remains a tough challenge. According to the Global Nutrition Report 2016, the country ranks globally among the top ten for stunted children. Three out of 10 school children aged 6 to 12 years old remain short for their age (stunted) and have not attained the optimum weight for their heights (wasted). In addressing this issue, schools play an important role in nutrition rehabilitation. According to the VGtS researchers, part of achieving sustainability is addressing the constraints

in school-based feeding programs, which include the following: a) Inadequate administrative support for the school-based feeding program as evidenced by frequent re-shuffling of teachers in charge of feeding and gardening, inadequate training of replacement teachers, and lack of proper equipment to monitor weight and height. b) Water and WaSH facilities should be available in all schools. Many schools have no running water, or at best, water comes for a few hours on certain days of the week. When there is no running water, hand washing facilities and toilets remain unused and children are not able to benefit from healthy practices. c) School gardens contribute to good nutritional rehabilitation outcomes. Many schools have vegetable gardens which do not last the whole school year (10 months) because of many reasons, such as lack of water, inadequate space for a garden, and lack of a teacher-in-charge of gardening. The VGtS Program also emphasized the fact that schools which have yearround vegetable gardens showed a better gain in BMI for children who were enrolled in the school-based feeding program compared to schools which did not have year-round vegetable gardens. Beyond nutrition Nutritional rehabilitation directly contributes to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 which aims to end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture. VGtS is present in five countries, namely, Bhutan, Burkina Faso, Indonesia, Nepal, and the Philippines.

Wednesday, June 7, 2017 For our country, Cagayan de Oro City was an ideal area, said Dr. Gerold: “Cagayan was chosen for this project because it has a long-standing history, contribution, and commitment towards allotment of resources to school gardens and feeding programs. These programs were under the major commitment of the previous provincial governor and now the mayor of the city, in collaboration with Xavier University. The Department of Education also laid the ground for a successful partnership in the southern Philippines.” Dr. Gina S. Itchon, director of Xavier Ateneo School of Medicine – Sustainable Sanitation (SuSan) Cen-

ter and VGtS-Philippines country manager, shared how the program is honing future doctors in community medicine. “We used this program to complete the education of our medical students. I brought my first-year students to some of the schools so that they will see the actual situation of nutrition among schoolchildren,” Dr. Itchon said. “It’s one thing to learn it from the books, what is ideal in the classroom and in the laboratory. But it’s another thing to see the face of a malnourished child. I think that is very important for us to build doctors who will be relevant and who will work for the

Philippines, especially here in Cagayan de Oro City,” she continued. Dr. Itchon hopes that this new breed of doctors, who have been immersed in poor and marginalized communities, will not end up as “doctors for export,” but who will help solve the country’s healthcare problems. “When I attended the first meeting on VGtS and it was offered to Xavier as a project, I immediately said yes because it’s addressing the pressing issue of malnutrition. It also complements the education of our medical students. Outreach is also university concern for Xavier,” she shared. As evidenced by children

being too short for their ages and being too thin for their heights, chronic malnutrition is an urgent national matter which should be addressed. This is the reason why Dr. Gerold, Dr. Itchon, other team members, and project partners believe that sustaining integrated, school-based feeding programs is as crucial as looking for more innovate ways on continually improving the nutrition of Filipinos at the early stage. The message of VGtS is clear: “Improved nutrition is the platform for progress in health, education, and employment which will eventually help the Philippines achieve sustainable development.”

Make the word as your daily mirror T he G os p el of J e s u s C hrist ( J u n e 7 , 2017-Wednesday)Luke 11:27-28-while Jesus was saying these things, one of the women in the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, “Blessed is the womb that bore You and the breasts at which You nursed.” But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it: In this gospel a certain woman recognized the mother of Jesus. Say-

ing say, “mother like son.” I believe that the goodness of Jesus inherited from mother Mary. For this truth, Mary the holy mother of Jesus must be “venerated and respected” by all faithful. But it is contrary to what other denominations are doing because they are attacking Blessed Mary. They made many accusations to Mary. Take note, the closest person to the heart of Jesus is Mary and for this; it is the right move to come to Mary

for help through her powerful intercession for all of us. On the other hand, Jesus said that blessed are you who are always listening to His words. Do not close your heart because that is the door of your soul. A word of God has a very positive effect in our lives. John 15:3”You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Your inner most being is cleansed by the words of God. You are purified by

Sunido by a unanimous decision last December 27, 2015 in Zamboanga. He also lost by a unanimous decision in challenging WBA World bantamweight champion Koki Kameda in Tokyo, Japan in 2013. Apolinario also twice settled to a draw – majority (2012) and split (2013) - to Roberto Vasquez for the interim WBA World bantamweight title in Panama. Apolinario captured the vacant WBO Oriental super flyweight title via a unanimous decision against Palicte’s older brother Vincent in 2010 at the Arayata Sports Complex in Tanza, Cavite. “Kaya po ako todo sa ensayo upang maka ganti sa kanya,” (That’s why I’ve been training hard to avenge the loss of my brother) said Palicte, who is now being trained by his brother Vincent.

GOD! Here is something I wrote on September 28, 2013 about what truly caused global warming and climate change: “The main thesis of the scientists who just completed their assessment of the global warming and climate change phenomenon in the world in the just-concluded Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in Stockholm is correct: global warming and climate change are both man-made. “But unlike the scientists who said that human activity and disregard precipitated the environment’s degradation and decline, my view is that man’s turning away from God, by refusing to read His Bible and to obey His commands, is the real culprit why the weather and climate patterns of the world have changed. Read Deuteronomy 28:15 and 22-23 of the Bible for the explanation. “In view of this, since it is clear that global warming and climate change have been caused by spiritual decline among many believers, a key solution against these deadly and destructive weather aberrations would be spiritual return for our people, to enable our nation to go back to God by

listening to His Word once again, and obeying Him once more.” -ooo WATCH “ANG TANGING DAAN” AT FACEBOOK: Please watch “Ang Tanging Daan”, a Bible exposition and prayer session for everyone, in English and Filipino, at www.facebook. com/angtangingdaan.

Junelita Purgatorio, Barangay Cavinte chair, said that those who were killed were mere farmers and had no firearms, except for Mahusay who was a gun owner. “How could they own firearms when they could not even afford to buy food?” she added. On that day of the shooting, Purgatorio said, there was a birthday party and the victims happened to drop by and join the celebration. After the shooting, she said the people in the area were traumatized and would cower in fear at just the sound of vehicles passing by their neighborhood. Danilo Tubil, Barangay Balintawak chair, said those who saw witnessed the incident must undergo stress debriefing to remove the trauma they had gone through.

Monday. DepEd-12 earlier said all public elementary and high schools in the region were mandated to accept all transferees from Marawi City, including those who were not able to present any school-related document or record. “Our schools will accept these displaced children until June 30,” Bayocot said in a radio interview. For the other late enrolees, the official said they will also accept them until the end of the month, provided they have valid reasons. He urged parents or guardians of learners who were not yet enrolled to process them within the week. “They will miss a lot from their classes and lag behind in terms of their lessons if they will wait longer to enroll,” he said. For the school opening on Monday, Bayocot said a total of 1,096,320 learners have enrolled and showed up for their classes. Region 12, which has nine school divisions, has a total of 1,746 elementary and 499 secondary schools, including those offering senior high school programs. The region comprises the provinces of South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani and North Cotabato, and the cities of General Santos, Koronadal, Tacurong, Kidapawan and Cotabato. Bayocot described the formal opening of classes in the entire region as “peace-

Wednesday, June 7, 2017 ful, orderly and successful.” But he said they also received reports on some minor problems common to schools, especially those with huge population or enrollment. These include some learners having difficulty in finding their classrooms and the lack of available classrooms in some schools, he said. “But these were addressed through the help desks set up by our schools,” he added. Supt. Romeo Galgo Jr., public information officer of the Police Regional Office-12, said the opening of classes in the region was generally peaceful and orderly based on their monitoring. “There were no major untoward incidents monitored and forwarded to regional operations center in connection with the opening of classes,” he said. He said they have assigned personnel to secure local schools, especially the learners, and facilitate the flow of vehicle traffic in some school zones. On Monday, several schools in Maasim and Kiamba towns suspended their classes due to a reported clash between government troops and an unidentified armed group. The brief encounter ensued after armed men ambushed a vehicle of the Army’s 27th Infantry Battalion in Sitio Nama, Barangay Lomuyon in Kiamba, leaving a trooper wounded. But the Kiamba municipal police station said the security situation in the area is already under control. (MindaNews)

Lt. Col Rommel Pagayon of the 26IB reported to Col Cristobal Zaragoza, 401st Brigade Commander, that the three rebels crossed path with the troops who were on patrol when they noticed that one of the sacks that each of them was carrying revealed an outline of a rifle prompting them to accost the trio. @ Onin tried to escape but was captured later. Major Gen. Benjamin Madrifal of the 4TH Infantry Division congratulated the troops as he extorted them to be more cautious and vigilant in the advent of the NPAs plan to wage more attacks on AFP and police forces and uncooperative business entities. Criminal charges were filed against the captured guerillas by the Veruela Municipal Police Station.

that the police had already discussed with local government units and school officials security measures and how to fight against all forms of criminality and illegal activities which may endanger students. As part of security measures being implemented, the police have conducted information and education campaign, including the opening of hotlines and distribution of printed materials pertaining to threats and how they may be able to seek police assistance.

Palicte, Apolinario grudge fight in GenSan, 10 June CRIS DIAZ - Editor

DAVAO CITY -- Reigning World Boxing Organization (WBO) Inter-Continental and NABF super flyweight champion Aston “Mighty” Palicte will fight former WBO Oriental super flyweight champion John Mark Apolinario in a non-title bout on June 10 at the Robinson’s Mall Atrium in General Santos City. The 10-rounder is one of the exciting pairs in the “Brawl at the Mall: The Homecoming” boxing card of the Sanman Promotions. Palicte, who holds 22 wins, 2 losses, 0 draw, and 18 knockouts (KOs), won his two titles via a split decision against then-undefeated Oscar Cantu (14-0) last De-

cember 17 at the Downtown Las Vegas Event Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Palicte, who is also a former WBO Oriental super flyweight title-holder, earlier pocketed the vacant IBF Pan Pacific super flyweight title by knocking out Vergilio Silvano in the 7th round last June 24 at the Jurado Hall of the Philippine Marine Corp in Taguig City. Palicte, who is fighting under Soong Boxing Stable, is accompanied by his trainer Apolinario. He will enjoy the huge support of the crowd on fight night for being a native of nearby Maasim, Sarangani Province. “Maningkamot ko na maka daug kay daghan sa

akong mga ka pamilya ang mutan aw sa away namo,” (I will try my best to win because many of my relatives will be watching our fight),” said the 27-year old Apolinario, who has a record of 18 wins, 8 losses, 3 draws, and 4 KOs. Apolinario, however, had dropped his two ring assignments last year. He bowed to Luke Jackson by a unanimous decision in their battle for the vacant WBA Oceania featherweight title last March 5 in Tasmania, Australia. Apolinario later dropped a majority decision to Jason Cooper on May 14 in Queensland, Australia. He last won against Ronnie See fight, page 11
