NDF consultant urges groups to seize Duterte’s ‘good vibes’ on peace talks By Lilian C. Mellejor

DAVAO CITY -- A consultant of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) urged the religious sector and people’s organizations in Mindanao to seize the “positive vibes” of President Rodrigo Duterte amid his “changing disposition” on the communist rebels. Satur Ocampo, consultant of the NDF panel and the national chair of Bayan Muna, cited the President’s “passion for peace and his heart’s desire to give peace in Mindanao as cues that Duterte wants to leave a legacy for a just and lasting peace in the country.” Speaking before the “Mindanao Peace ForumSowing the Seeds of Peace” on Wednesday at Homitor attended by 300 delegates, Ocampo detailed the President’s changing statements or decisions that “shock and awe leftists and revolutionaries on issues like the release of political prisoners, ceasefire and the all-out war against the communist rebels.” He noted Duterte’s contradicting statements of an Davao Archbishop Romulo Valles explains the Sagop Kinabuhi Program of the Archdiocese in partnership with the Center Against Illegal Drug See urges, page A7

RDC pushes the funding of projects for Davao region TAGUM CITY, Davao del Norte -- Davao del Norte Governor Anthony del Rosario is pushing for the funding of 80 to 90 percent of proposed projects for Region 11 (Davao region) that are listed in the General Appropriations Act (GAA). Del Rosario, who chairs the Regional Development Council-11 (RDC-11), added that over the years, only

“40 to 50 percent of lined-up projects for the region were funded and implemented.” “As chair, (I hope) we will be able to get as much as 80 percent funding, which is going to be a record. This has never been done before,” he pointed out. President Rodrigo Duterte named Del Rosario as RDC-11 chair last February. The governor

has convened the council early this month to review the existing plans and set priorities since assuming the post. The push for substantial funding of projects, he said, is in line with his thrust of fostering a “results-oriented development council” in the Davao region. Del Rosario said he is also planning to sit down with

the congressional district representatives of Davao region, in what he dubbed as an “advisory council meeting.” “They would have no reason not to attend because we are the ones who will go to Congress to meet them,” he said. The meeting also aimed to get the full backing of all See pushes, page A4

Pres. Duterte appoints Gov. Del Rosario as new RDC-XI Chair DAVAO CITY -- President Rodrigo Duterte has appointed Davao del Norte Governor Antonio Rafael G. del Rosario as Chairperson of the Regional Development Council (RDC) XI for the term 2016-2019. Governor del Rosario’s appointment was signed by the President on February 21, 2017 making him the fifth Chairperson since the Council’s reorganization in 1986. His appointment papers were handed to him by RDC XI Vice-Chairperson and NEDA XI Director Maria Lourdes D. Lim. Del Rosario vowed to deliver his mandate as head of the highest policy-making body that sets the direction of all the economic and social development efforts in the Davao Region.

As his first official function, the Chair shall preside over the first quarter RDC XI Meeting on March 8, 2016 at the RDC XI Convention Hall in Davao City. “The appointment of RDC XI Chair del Rosario promises an action-oriented, development-minded and dynamic leadership for Davao Region,” Vice Chair Lim said. She assured that the RDC XI shall rally behind and provide full support to del Rosario’s leadership in order to set Davao Region’s foundation for inclusive growth and a high trust society. During his stint at the 16th Congress as Davao del Norte’s 1st District Representative, del Rosario was cited as the best performer among 287 members for filing the most number of

House Bills. As Chair of the House Committee on Economic Affairs, he shepherded a total of twenty-five House Bills, of which some were among the important legislative achievements of the 16th Congress. Eight of the bills that he principally authored and nine measures that he coauthored were passed into law. The landmark legislations he authored include Republic Act 10667, known as “The Fair Competition Act”; R.A. 10668, “Amendments to the Cabotage Law;” and R.A. 10650, “Open Learning through Distance Education in Post – Secondary and Tertiary Levels Act.” Del Rosario, fondly called AGR, also authored the conversion of the Davao Regional Hospital into a Medical Cen-

ter, and the Acts that provide internal revenue allotment (IRA) share to eight special barangays in Davao del Norte that were deprived of their share from the national government for over 20 years. Another landmark legislation authored by del Rosario was R.A. 10674, the law creating the Davao del Norte Regional Sports Academy in Tagum City. Del Rosario succeeded his father, former Davao del Norte Governor Rodolfo P. del Rosario, who served as RDC XI chairperson from 2013 to 2016. Other past RDC XI Chairs were Private Sector Representative (PSR) Jesus V. Ayala (19862007), PSR Vicente T. Lao (2007-2010) and Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio (2010-2013). (NEDA-XI)

Hedcor is Philippines’ first ISO 55001 certified

STA. CRUZ, Davao del Sur -- Hedcor Sibulan, Inc. and Hedcor Tudaya, Inc. are the first companies in the Philippines to be at par with the new international Asset Management standard. TUV-SUD, an internationally accredited certification body audits the compliance of an organization with international standards, recommended the ISO 55001:2014 certification for both Hedcor Sibulan and Hedcor Tudaya after the 56.1-MW cascading plants in Sta Cruz, Davao del Sur – namely Sibulan Hydro A, Tudaya Hydro 1, Sibulan Hydro B, and Tudaya Hydro 2 – passed the two stages of the audit. Hedcor Sibulan and Hedcor Tudaya passed the two stages with zero nonconformances on the operation and maintenance activities. This means Hedcor has an integrated and effective management system for assets that enables the company to achieve objectives and assure these are attained consistently and sustainably over time. Assessors also remarked the commitment and involvement of the top management and the professionalism and competency of the staff interviewed during the assessment and cited some areas for improvement that

will further better Hedcor’s asset management. This achievement is a testament to Hedcor’s pursuit for a better world through renewable energy. “One way to fulfill our renewed purpose is by advancing our business so we can also advance communities. Through obtaining this Asset Management System certification, we can assure our stakeholders of a more efficient and reliable generation of clean and renewable energy,” said Hedcor vice president for Mindanao Operations Rolando Pacquiao. Hedcor also acquired certifications for ISO 9001 (Quality Management System), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System), OHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety), and ISO 27001 (Information Security Management System). Hedcor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AboitizPower which specializes in generating renewable energy from run-of-river hydropower systems. It currently operates 22 hydropower plants and supplies the country with 185MW of clean and renewable energy. Soon, its Manolo Fortich Hydro project in the province of Bukidnon will add 68.8-MW of power to the Mindanao grid. (Hedcor)

I am a Teacher and I am Proud of It By Jovelyn M. Naquila-Teacher III Quezon Central Elementary School

Each of us live for a purpose, and I chose this - to be a teacher. It feels great to greet everyday looking forward to introduce new learning among young individuals. It feels satisfying to realize that you are part in molding them and their future. Others might realize it but being a teacher is a lot of sacrifice - you spend the entire day talking inside the classroom and turning nights to planning and writing lesson plans. There are even times that you do not enjoy days off and holidays, because you spend them tutoring, giving remedial classes or if not, creating teaching materials and coming up with strategies in order to improve teaching methods. However, these are nothing compared to see children enjoying their classes because they find my lessons exciting and beneficial, or to see them NOTICE NOTICE is hereby given that the estate of TEOFILA R.

By virtue of the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013, the Senior High School Program is on its way across the DepEd curriculum. By the start of the School Year 2016-2017, millions of students across the country would have graduated four years of high school that would make up the first batch to enroll Grade 11. After Grade 12 when they graduate by March 2018, they will be the first batch to finish the K-12 program. For that, both public and private schools would have to find extra classrooms, restrooms, teachers, textbooks, etc. to accommodate

design and setting up all laboratories for the learners,” Umali said. K-12, in fact, has been running for three years now and the educational system been inadequately prepared for the major shift and bigger problems that are in store once Grade 11 begins. That’s rather simplistic argument against K-12 which seems to be belated but well-intentioned corrective system in which the Philippines has been the last Asian country to adopt the system, but as always, the devil is in the details.

Fancy ethnical footwork, hand waving, body moving, head swaying to the Higa-unon beat. Young ladies in their colorful cultural dresses and fan-like headdresses. Young men in their valiant stance gripping spears or swords. All of them in synchronicity of the choreographic finesse kind, gyrating to the thumping of drums and hooting of horns, to the singular liquid yet massive rhythm. Quite a sight to behold and with equally contagious sonic appeal. It is potent inducer enough inviting nostalgia about a cultural past. Fusion of vibrant imagery and folkloric reenactment of how a town is birthed. Rich, rife with suspense and gore the town legend is for sure but

it is the immortal tale told a hundredfold from the eldest of town elders of decades past handed down to the youngest living generation of this small town. Over and over, the story telling never pales out in its historical drama - signifying the ‘unconquerable’ collective spirit of the lumads, natural farm tillers and fishers, brave territorial fighters who defeated and decapitated invading pirates and threw them all in one big bloody heap in a well. It is a tale of the few united coastal dwellers overcoming odds fighting fiercely to defend land and lives. Every 16th of March, aside from Christmas and fiesta, town locals get their annual festive treat: the

Luga-Hait Dance Festival. Every year on this date, the people of Lugait and the residents of neighboring towns gather to celebrate the town’s birthday and participate or be witnesses in the numerous activities promoting the cultural heritage of a seemingly small yet significant cultural presence in Misamisnon history, in this manner, made manifest through dance. The Luga-Hait dance Festival is a local interschool (elementary) competition. Schools prepare weeks prior to the contest and exert considerable effort and energy for them to deliver their best festival dance performance. It can be safely assumed that young dancers deliver their prowess for the approval and appreciation of the curious crowd of spectators and for meeting the expectations of

their own respective school teams. In a reflective note, life is akin to a dance. Whether it is hip hop, ballroom, ballet or ethnic, the dancers get to choose their own moves required in the stage of surviving, living and making positive impact to others. The good people of Lugait has still a lot to do. A lot of learning, evolving and moving in harmony with its truest identity and purposeful aspirations of progress and perpetual improvement. It is important to move forward and dance in the existent present without losing reference to the ‘cultural coast,’ the point of origin and unity that will carry them through and make them champions once more – beating more than the threat of invading pirates.

the new program. The Department of Education says that it is ready for the first day of classes on June 13 for Grade 11 students, the upcoming batch for Senior High School under the new K-12 program. “ The DepEd is ready… You can be assured…The first day of classes would be orderly.” Asec. Umali said in an interview over DZBB. He also said “many” of “more or less 23,000” classrooms the DepEd had planned to construct for the Grade 11 students had been completed, but there are still few that are under construction and this “ June

13 we are ready but there are few classrooms that will not finish on time, after one or two weeks these will be Ok’” he said. Then there’s a problem of the student’s choices. Not all Senior High School will offer all four student tracks – academic, technical- vocational livelihood, sports and arts and design. Some students would enroll to the private schools nearby that offer the track they want. We should not expect all Senior High schools will offer all tracks since it is not feasible, it’s too expensive. “Can you imagine building a track field or sports facilities, constructing studios for those who want arts and

The 16th of March stands out not only as the beginning of summer but more importantly in the local perspective, accentuates the birth of a little town. It is the Foundation Day of Lugait. Lugait being the last town of Misamis Oriental facing the gateway to the city of Iligan. This day, in this year, marks the town’s 56th Foundation Day. And also, the first Foundaion day to be chaired by a new and progressive minded mayor in the person of Mayor Zosimo A. Perez Jr. Lugaitnons, comprisingly largely of the descendants of early settling lumads, (the Higaunons), and the sea crossing migrants from Cebu and the Visayas, celebrate their small town’s birthday in a big way through a series

the congressional representatives in Davao region in his bid to obtain more funding for development projects in the area. Del Rosario, who delivered his first State of the

of events or social activities for both the locals and visitors to enjoy. Everybody in Lugait basks in big time merriment like any grateful celebrant would. Preparations are made usually a few months before and all working personnel in the public service from the persons manning the offices in the local government unit such as the Office of the Municipal Mayor, the Sangguniang Bayan, Turismo Lugait (the Tourism Committee), all barangay chairmen, police and firemen, health workers, peoples’ civic organizations, schools, day care workers, traffic officers, the contributing market vendors, the serving street cleaners and the local residents themselves unify their forces and flair for the success of the much anticipated special day of Lugait.

As a newly assigned schools district supervisor in this seemingly timid looking but thriving town, I am to meet expectations from both the organization I lead and from my own. It is noteworthy to say that I am a newcomer, yet to be acquainted with the new community I get to serve but somehow, I get to feel that Lugait has a different simple charm in contrast to larger schools district or larger towns. With the celebration of its birthday, I not only catch a glimpse of its culture but witness the collective character of its people and the ways and means in which they live, learn and improve. In its 56th Foundation day, more than the peoples’ craving for social engagement and involvement in the cause oriented enterprise

in the likes of a rave dance party, zumba dancing, boxing, intercollegiate basketball tournament, a dance contest, weekly night market, the agricultural fair and the customary Rock Wars and Miss Lugait Foundation beauty pageant, I can visualize a Lugait with so much more development to go through. Of course as with development and as with change, come the pains of growing and expanding. As part of the Lugait family of public servants and as advocate for change, I am aware that Lugait will continue to celebrate exciting birthdays in years to come. Ever glad that in my term I am to become one of its observers and participants in its evolution as a growing municipality. It is to be perceived that Lugait will have more wonderful birthdays to celebrate.

Your kindnesses are not forgotten T h e Gos p e l of J e sus Christ (March17, 2017-Friday)Luke 10:38-42” He entered a village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. She had a sister called Mary, who was seated at the Lord’s feet, listening to His word. But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving alone? Then tell her to help me.” But the

Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part: It was their culture to entertain a certain visitor but take note; Jesus had many companions because he never journeyed alone. May analysis to this; it was not easy for these two women to prepare the foods for them. What is money compare to your real joy and happiness?

Education Opens Endless Opportunities By Anita T. Damaolao-Teacher III Quezon Central Elementary School Quezon ,Bukidnon

It is always saddening to see the suffering of this world - to see families living difficult life along the road, children asking for food in the terminals, adults begging for money on the stairs of an overpass. Definitely, this world to some is but a suffering. It feels drained and difficult and composed of thirsty throats and hungry stomachs. But it is still overwhelming to see lit of hope behind all these. Just like Education; for some poor families who experienced so much in life, they ride high and low to send their children to school and teach them to be productive people of the country, to be a help in the family. Education is a right of every individual, for him to attain. It is a role of a nation to educate their constituents. But it does not just stop there. Education has made to be an investment of a person For him to develop what he already know and learn new things, to grow as a person, to grab delightful opportunities and several more. This is how Education is defined already. It is furtherly aimed and accessible to all, when everyone wanted finite chances of achieving knowledge and

experiencing growth. It is even better that along with this demand, Education Department implemented programs that wish the same thought, such as the Alternative Learning System, PRIME and Open High School, among others.

Actually; money cannot buy happiness but this is only a tool to make us happy once this is used exactly and properly. Do not think that money can give you the real happiness because there are rich and famous killed themselves. God can give us this happiness that this earth could not ever give. Like the two greatest women; they never minded the expenses or the cost of their preparation because they were happy to serve Jesus and his companions.

To be good it pays. Ephesians 6:8” You are paid for whatever good things that you have to anyone. In Joh11” Lazarus died and Jesus goes there and redeemed Lazarus. If they were not closed physically; I don’t think so if Jesus can do this miracle. Anyway; all of us are equal in his heart.Proverbs 22:2”The rich and the poor have a common bond. But Jesus gave special favor to this family as his gratitude for what they had done to him.

Philippine Response to Indigenous Peoples’ and Muslim Education By Jovelyn M. Naquila-Teacher III Quezon Central Elementary School

The Department of Education, as a department tasked to take monitor and control on education, is running its mandate to improve the system of education sector in the Philippines through programs and project implementations. Few of these implementations are the Education for All targets that is set to conclude next year and also the realization of Millenium Development Goals of United Nations. Another is the implementation of Philippine Response to Indigenous Peoples’ and Muslim Edu-

cation (PRIME). It is to ensure the access to more reliable data for planning and targeting its resources for the purpose of reaching the under-served groups across the country. The program is realized through partnership with Australian government, being the funding organization. PRIME takes place in nine regions of the country which are determined as regions having lowest educational indicators. It is expected to improve access to quality education by addressing drop-out rates, improving

poor participation rates and increasing completion rates and national test score rates, which will result to better learning outcomes for indigenous peoples and Muslim communities. The run of PRIME first started on year 2011. In a statement released July 2014, DepEd reported that this program has already reached more than a 100,000 children attending in some 725 public schools across nine sites in the country. Truly, these figures say that PRIME has been an effective tool in delivering quality kind of education to various locations in a manner that it is sensitive and parallel

to varying cultures, dialects and practices. This method made it easier for delivery of learning.

It might be a fact that educational problems bombarded the third-generation countries such as ours but

The Mother As A teacher

By Rosalia C. Flores

A home is a first child school and the mother is his first teacher. He is therefore spared the confusion of testing and doubting her every lesson and command. A mother should always choose the lesson she wants her child to learn without no more display of emotion than befit in a classroom. Now a good teachers information can be trusted and true without need for constant checking and doubting by pupil and one of the first lesson a young child need to learn

that he can trust the reality of his mother teachings. The acceptance of authority is the first lesson a young child to learn the subsequent lessons will be easier for him.

punishment as something she does for the child. The mother as a teacher is responsible for their areas of social development. It is up to her to see the child’s talents are developed. And a child needs to be challenge with the thought that he lives not just for self-satisfaction and joy of achievement but he is under obligation to use his talents for mankind. He should be educated to idealism rather than materialism. A mother is also responsible for the physical development of her child. The home environment created by parents during this time has a tremendous impact on the child future. Both will contribute more then they realize to the future of the entire family.

all-out war and his wish for peace in the country, especially Mindanao, as signs the President is “pro-peace.” Ocampo said Duterte’s pro-peace stance came out when he called them to a meeting in Malacañang and his decision to allow backchannel talks between the government peace panel and the NDF in Utercht , The Netherlands recently. Ocampo revealed that Jose Maria Sison, Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) founding chair, also recognizes the need to push the peace negotiations in a “non-adversarial” way. Sison earlier appreciated the release of NDF consultants to allow them to participate in the negotiations. For now, Ocampo said “it is important for us to look at how “we can maximize his positive vibes and avoid the negative vibes”. Ocampo stressed that “peace in Mindanao is peace for the whole nation.” Lawyer Antonio Arellano, a member of the GRP peace panel, admitted the peace process is in a sensitive phase and that there is a need for people participation in the peace conversation. Arellano said the President’s dream and goal for peace is everybody’s dream too. The Mindanao Peace Forum was organized by the Philippine Ecumenical Peace Platform (PEPP) and the Sisters Association in Mindanao (SAMIN) to rally support and appeal to Duterte to leave a legacy of peace. Bishop Felixberto Calang recognized the fact that the Duterte administration was able to hold three rounds of talks and passed several agreements with the communist rebels in less than a year of his presidency. Given positive developments, Calang said security risks should not be allowed to hijack the gains of the peace process, especially now that the peace talks are back on track after the successful back-channel negotiations in Utrecht where the both sides agree to resume the talks and pursue the signing of a bilateral ceasefire agreement. Allowing the stalled peace talks to continue, Calang said, shows the political will of President Duterte. He said the coun-

try needs a decisive move to address the roots of the conflict. He also cited civilian supremacy in the peace process. Calang stressed that going back to the negotiating table to address the roots of the armed conflict “such as giving land to the tillers, equality for men and women, and self-determination for the Moro must be given more significance than the military’s goal of wiping out the enemy.” On Tuesday, Duterte announced he was open to declaring ceasefire with the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army-National Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF) but wants it in writing with clear parameters. It can be recalled that the President pulled out the government peace panel from the talks after the termination of unilateral ceasefire and armed incidents in Bukidnon and Makilala last January. His decision came following the successful third round of talks in Rome, Italy, where both parties agreed to unlock contentious issues on bilateral ceasefire, amnesty and releases, socioeconomic reforms, and political and constitutional reforms. The 4th round of talks would be crucial as both sides will discuss the remaining issues under Agrarian Reform and Rural Development, National Industrialization and Economic Development, Environmental Protection, Rehabilitation and Compensation and the outputs of the bilateral team.

a bigger audience. Not just within the Philippines but even the international community,” he added. He further said that it was also unusual for him that there were more international media attending Senate hearings when previous hearings on equally important issues were tackled. Trillanes denied the destabilization plot several times noting that he only wanted to expose the truth. Lacson, however, said that he did not buy this reason. “What’s the goal? Just the truth? Come on, we were not born yesterday. All of a sudden your goal is just to expose the truth? For what reason, for what

Why do they seem eager to prolong and extend the hearing? It’s to bring down this administration, he added. Lacson said that he knew this because he was

Briones reiterated that she will take no part of the planned condom distribution noting that there is no law or executive order that obligates her agency to distribute them.
