Pelaez disagrees with Emano on ‘advisory’ Volume VI, No. 230

By MARK FRANCISCO

FOR the first time in his career, Misamis Oriental Vice Gov. Jose Mari Pelaez disagreed head-on with the opinion of his staunch political ally Misamis Oriental Gov. Yevgeny Vincente Emano.

It all began when provincial tourism officer Yvonne Waga issued an advisory last Thursday afternoon recalling all trekkers from Mt. Sumot and Mt. Lumot in Claveria town and Mt. Balatukan in Gingoog City. At the same time, Waga suspended all treks in these

two mountainous tourism sites until the military would inform the Capitol that it’s safe to do so. It can be recalled that since last Monday, both the military and the rebel New People’s Army (NPA) had reports of running gun See disagrees, page 11

MAGSAYSAY, Davao del Sur -- The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) - Region 11 completed Friday the release of a total of PHP2,292,000 for 1,528 indigent senior citizens. The cash release was made this early even as it should cover the first quarter of 2017 or from January to March. The Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office and the Municipal Treasurer’s Office here divided the 22 barangays (villages) into three for the three-day release of the pension starting last Wednesday.

The age qualification eligible to receive a social pension was lowered from 77 years old to 65 years old. It was

With the lower age requirement, more economically disadvantaged senior citizens can have additional cash to spend for their basic needs such as medicines and nutritious food to support their well-being. Those who will qualify to receive the PHP500 monthly stipend are senior citizens who are frail, sickly, or have disabilities; are not receiving pension from Social Security System (SSS), Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), or Veterans Pension; and do not have a permanent source of income or regular support from relatives.

Last Wednesday, I was among thousands of proud Muntinlupeños who packed the Muntinlupa Sports Complex to the rafters to listen to City Mayor Jaime Frisnedi deliver his State of the City Address. The occasion coincided with the date, 22 years ago, when President Fidel V. Ramos, signed into law RA 7926, also known as the Muntinlupa City Charter. The celebration was also part of a year-long schedule of activities to mark the 100th year since Muntinlupa became a independent municipality in 1917. Ramos, the most prominent adopted son of Muntinlupa, has been very much part of Muntinlupa’s development and progress. Another of his landmark contributions was his decision to open up the Alabang Stock Farm to a joint venture development by the private sector. The venture produced the Filinvest Corporate City which constituted the “second wave” in the development of Muntinlupa as a business and commercial hub. Much earlier in the mid 80s, the Ayala group led the “first wave” with the development of Ayala Alabang

and the Madrigal Business Park. Residents are now eagerly awaiting the “third wave” with the planned relocation of the New Bilibid Prison and the conversion of the vacated area for mixed use commercial development. Frisnedi, who in 2013 reassumed office which he earlier held from 1998 to 2007, was not boasting when he enumerated the gains he made during the last few years. The infrastructure development boom in Muntinlupa is simply evident everywhere. On Muntinlupa Cityhood Day, Frisnedi led city officials and residents in inaugurating Centennial Road which provides easy access from the national road to the Sports Complex. Also inaugurated was a children’s playground (Bulilit Center) in Barangay Tunasan. One can not miss the newly completed police headquarters in the vicinity, now regarded as the most modern in the country. Even NCR Regional Director Oscar Albayalde concedes that the Muntinlupa police headquarters eclipses the facilities at the PNP headquarters in Camp Crame. Earlier, Frisnedi com-

Analysis:

pleted the DepEd Division building, several school buildings, gymnasiums, covered courts, pavilions, and day care centers. Among the projects in the pipeline are the following: the proposed Muntinlupa museum, a 3-storey government center in Barangay Poblacion, a modern fire station, more health centers, an upgrade of the Ospital ng Muntinlupa, and a proposed Colegio de Muntinlupa in Barangay Sucat. The construction of the first building of the proposed college will start this year. When completed the proposed new college will offer a course in engineering. Frisnedi also reported on the city’s initiatives in human resource development. For 2017, the city government has earmarked 214 million pesos to cover basic expenses of 50,000 scholars at all school levels - from elementary, high school, technical-vocational, college and even post-graduate courses. Muntinlupa’s Joint Resources Financing (JRF) Program, now also nicknamed as a “5-5” because it gives interest free loans for micro-entrepreneurs,

Ignacio Bunye has already helped around 5,000 beneficiaries. Loans range from P3,000 to as high as P100,000. The city has also adopted a few more office process innovations to further improve the speed and ease of transacting with city hall. Case in point is the new system in place at the business permits office, the single window transaction or SWIT. Related programs include tie-ups with DBP, Land Bank and BDO, all designed to facilitate point of sales payment during tax payment periods. BPLO head Gary LLamas estimates that with the more efficient system, they expect to hit P1.84 billion pesos in business taxes, more than double that collected five years ago. Already host to satellite offices of key frontline government offices (e.g., DFA, BIR, NBI, SSS), Muntinlupa will soon welcome the opening of the satellite office of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Muntinlupa is currently See bunye, page 11

is a must if one wants to excel in his or her avowed service. In the teaching profession, one must have an annual growth plan which should reflect goals and objectives based on an assessment of his or her learning needs and must show a demonstrable relationship to the educational plans for the school. How well do you know the requirements, the specific knowledge, skills and attributes of your job? This self-assessment of teacher learning needs is critical to professional growth. Teachers develop their professional practice throughout their entire career. Therefore, self-assessment must be continuous and seamless with professional growth. Self-assessment can take many forms from reflective practice and journals to action research; from analysis of student achievement data to peer coaching and critiquing by friends. Professional growth includes understanding and planning for student development and learning differences. How would one employ instructional approaches based on stu-

and employ instructional strategies and approaches based on this understanding. He or she must know the subject or curricula well enough to be able to differentiate instructional goal expectations to meet individual student needs and to build their understanding on it. Planning for effective instruction that advances the learning of each individual student is a must. One’s teaching plans should reflect the understanding of the context in which teaching occurs including students' abilities and developmental levels; and school, parental and community values. Plan and maintain longrange plans, unit plans, lesson plans and a variety of appropriate instructional strategies to meet curriculum objectives. It must include elements of good teaching and practice such as: links to past learning, statement of objectives, presentation of material at students' levels, modeling, guided practice, independent practice, assessment of student learning, See growth, page 11

Government funds should not be disbursed without appropriation ordinance, in the case of local government units, authorizing such disbursement. No government funds should likewise be disbursed in some other purposes not specified in the appropriation language. Any fund diversion is considered as technical malversation which is in violation to R.A. 3019, a case cognizable with the Ombudsman. Authorities concerned in charge of government funds must act like a father of the family. The case of the travel of some of the barangay captains in Iligan City to the City of Vigan may be devoid of legal appropriateness, because the money they spent on subject travel was intended for other purposes, more particularly the implementation of Barangay Material Recovery Program - a most urgent project in every barangay and the city as well. The said travel was considered anomalous, devoid of legal propriety that behooves appropriate legal sanction. It would serve

Demosthenes P. Maglasang Sr.

as lesson for those who would be planning to become barangay captains in the future. We all know for sure that graft and corruption has been an endemic concern of every honest executive. The quality of the executive officer, like the City Mayor, would see to it that our officials in the smallest local government unit, the barangay, which is under his supervision, should maintain sound budgeting and quality services. This should be delivered to the people in an effective and efficient manner, rather than squandering their barangay’s funds in useless undertakings like “Lakbay Aral” that spent more than Six Million Five Hundred Two Thousand Pesos (Php.6, 502, 000) just recently. Imagine, there were one hundred seventy six barangay officials who traveled with an allocated funding of Php. 37,000 each. Such amount should have been translated into projects for See maglasang, page 11

Scholasticism Philosophy of Education By PATRONILLO A BENTILLO TEACHER II San Luis National High School San Luis,Malitbog Bukidnon

Content : Scholasticism advocates the experiential learning or the learning based on instructions in which the students will employ critical thinking and reasoning based on the information given and they need to arrive at the true meaning and evidences. In the early modern period,the term scholasticism denoted the systematization of learning in the school and universities mainly in Philosophy and Technology,occasionally extended to law and medicine. It has been characterized by its distinctive method and language by its elaboration into competing system o thoughts. Scholasticism is set out to synthesize Aristotelian and Christian thought.I seem to rationalize theology,using the rational process to prove existing truth.This scholastic organized the data of revelation systematically by the use of aristotellian deductive logic Thomas Aquinas.He worked within the Philosophic framework,proposing a type of God of the gaps”

theory.A person should acquire enough knowledge as possible though the use of human reason and then rely on faith in the realm beyond the scope of human understanding. Scholasticism Philosophy of Education is applicable to the private school with 5 to 10 students only inside the classroom but if you have plenty of students,you cannot easily finish the checking of their papers. If you have forty to fifty students inside the classroom and you let them answer in the easy type of examination.Ofcourse,it is very easy to prepare the test but it is difficult to check the papers for that number of students.A fruitful conversation is only applicable to

the private school who can understand English as their medium of instruction.but if they only heard English inside classroom.They felt difficult to understand their teachers so scholasticism alone is not good.Scholasticism believe in prayer and so,if you found out that your own students have ddifficulty in reading,ask for guidance from Holy Spirit that your student will know how to read and in return,the nonreader can read because there are no impressive people to God’s power.At the good,you will just notice that your student will not forget you because of the effort you give that he /she now know how to read and write.Some of the parent will give you something as a gift of giving extra time for their son and daughter that at last they know how to read.

ePLDT to elevate customer experience with adoption of SDN tech in its data centers e PLDT, an industry-leading provider of digital business solutions to enterprises in the Philippines, recently announced that it has deployed best-in-class Software Defined Networking (SDN) technology in its network of data centers. This is part of the company’s drive to elevate customer experience as SDN enables quick adoption to changing business trends and efficiency in controlling network resources. “Businesses are looking for smarter and more agile infrastructure to support their digital transformation initiatives. This demand is obviously brought by emerging trends such as cloud computing, mobile tech-

Per information, Duterte visited Camp Teodulfo Bautista station hospital in Jolo, Sulu to check on the wounded soldiers fighting the Abu Sayyaf group.

He also took time to be with those wounded in action now confined at the division’s hospital. The series of encounters between troopers and insurgents began last Feb. 27 in Barangay

nology, Big Data analytics, and the rise of the Internet of Things. All these have transformed the IT paradigm and accelerated the need for infrastructure that can support rapid shifts in demand. With the backdraft of natural and man-made disasters, we have also seen growth for geo-resiliency among enterprises which will need rapid network configuration and deployment. SDN will simplify configuration, control and management of enterprise networks,” said Nerisse Ramos, ePLDT Group Chief Operating Officer. “By enabling our VITRO Data Centers with SDN, our entire infrastructure can address these needs with enhanced

efficiency, flexibility, and security.” Traditionally, data center networks are comprised of a large number of switches and routers that direct traffic based on the limited view of each device. This feature makes data centers independent from one another. Managing configurations and the protocols associated with it must therefore be done in various places which can be time-consuming and expensive. SDN is an approach to

networking in which control of network policies and resources are decoupled through a single SDN controller. Because of the opensource nature of the controller, organizations can utilize commodity hardware from multiple vendors without compromising performance. “With this approach, traffic flow is managed through software, allowing optimization and tuning which is not available in traditional or locally-managed switches and routers.

He served only for eight months. He said they were shocked when neighbors informed them that Oshin was killed in action. The neighbors heard the news on the radio. The elder Rosala described his son, the youngest among his nine children, as a silent type. He said Oshin used to teach automotive at a technical school here, then briefly worked as a mechanic in a car company, before applying as a soldier.

The elder Rosala said it was some of his son’s students, most of them former servicemen, who convinced him to apply to the armed forces. “He asked my permission saying he wants to be soldier, but I discouraged him. I told him there are only two things that could happen to you, either you live or you die. But he was persistent. There was nothing we could do about it. He is old enough to decide for himself,” the elder Rosala said. For her part, Morales’ wife Izah, 31, had a premonition before her husband was killed in action. A few days before the encounter in Misamis Oriental, Izah said she dreamed about her death.

“I dreamed he died, but I just brushed it off because he was still alive then. I even told him about it. Three days later, he was dead,” she said in an interview. A soldier for 10 years assigned at the 58th Infantry Battalion, Izah said Marzon was a loving husband and a caring father to their two young children. “He was never strict but always affectionate to our kids. They were his weakness,” she said, adding that when he’s at home he never talked about his work. “When he’s with us, his focus is on his family. We never discussed about work,” she added.

Scalable connectivity and secure delivery at a faster pace Through SDN, a single management console with better visibility into network resources simplifies planning, and the setting up of networks, whether real or virtual. Policies can be changed quickly and easily to manage traffic loads, automatically reallocate network resources, and add devices. As a result, SDN provides organizations with the flexibility and agility to respond to market conditions and customer needs while dramatically improving management efficiency. Faster service delivery is achieved through SDN as services such as load balancers, firewalls, and Intrusion Detection Systems are placed appropriately on the traffic path, thereby allowing users to customize their own services based on their actual needs. Security is also assured as SDNs can handle increasing security demands that are not possible with hard-wired networks. “With SDN, we can pro-

vide our services to clients faster,” said Dave Simon, ePLDT Group Chief Technology Officer. “Our previous provisioning standard to our clients may range anywhere between 5 and 15 days depending on the scope but now with SDN, our standard services can be provisioned to customers in a matter of hours.” Change for the future For the country’s leading data center services provider in the country—with 10 data centers by 2018—this shift to SDN technology is just one of the company’s many innovations in its effort to provide high-quality service and superior customer experience. This shift also makes ePLDT at pace with the latest global trends. According to a study by the International Data Corporation, the worldwide data center SDN market is expected to reach $12.5 billion by 2020, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 53.9% from 2014 to 2020. “With its benefits, we believe that SDN is the future when it comes to networking,” said Ramos. “As a pacesetter in data center management, we ensure that our facilities and systems are up-to-date.

Motivation and continuous improvement in my profession as a teacher By Patronillo A. Bentillo

Teaching is a noble profession among other professions. The teachers are said to be the agent of change for better world. In line with this, it is a great challenge to a teacher like me to widen my understanding in my job as a facilitator of learning in the secondary level of education. As fair observation that poor performances in academic field is observed, rampant drop-outs, lack of students preparedness are problems in school. This show that the teacher must

posses adequate knowledge, skill, strategies to be effective in his profession to address the said crisis in school. I need to have a constant guidance to my students, that they should pay full attention to their studies, have reading and study habit in all subjects. One or more hour in the evening. Reminding them not to waste their time by just watching TV shows, too much laxity with friends. Encourage them that by constant practice this will make them wise, perfect

and become a successful one. One of the problem in school is absences. I have in mind that this problem be solved. I will organize the participation of primary stake holders who can help me manage it in most effective way, it includes the parents who are important stake holders in basic education, whether this would be through nominal conditions to school operations or in kind volunteer time and labor. Whatever the contribution, it must be expected of parents to take a more direct role in helping their children.

Being a teacher in the 21st century in this fast changing world, my professional development must be on going process so as to keep updated with the latest trends. To be an effective teacher I should work towards greater collaboration with my co-leagues to nurture my own professional expertise. It is my on going commitment to make sure that my lessons are very engaging and entertaining so that the student’s interest and creativity can be aroused and most especially sustained.

DA conducts CSO consultation for FY 2018 budget

Cagayan de Oro City – Citizen engagement is a vital component in the process of providing a responsive budget allocation. Thus, the Department of Agriculture – Regional Field Office 10 (DA-RFO 10) conducted a consultation of the proposed plan and budget for FY 2018 with its partner Civil Society Organizations (CSO) and stakeholders on February 28, 2017. In his message, DA-RFO 10 Regional Director Carlene C. Collado reiterated the importance of the consultative event in practicing good governance and transparency within the department. “This [consultation] will serve as an avenue to have a better output for our budget that could answer the pres-

ent needs of our farmers in the region,” Dir. Collado said. In comparison to the present FY 2017 as per approved through the General Appropriations Act (GAA) of Php1.649 billion, DA-RFO 10 aims to increase its budget allocation to Php4.908 billion for FY 2018. With bigger appropriation, Dir. Collado is optimistic that it will help attain the primary objectives of the agency which is to make food available and affordable for all, increase income of farmers and fisherfolks, and increase the resilience to climate change risks. Accordingly, focal persons of respective DA key programs and projects presented their proposed plans and budget proposals. An open forum on issues

and concerns also transpired during the course of the discussions which were deliberately responded by the Assistant Regional Director Roxana H. Hojas, Field Operation Division (FOD) chief Carlota S. Madriaga and DA programs and projects focal persons. The CSO consultation was done in adherence to the principles of constructive engagement crafted by the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) which integrates citizen participation in fund preparation and allocation. The proposed budget is yet to be presented to technical hearings and is subject for reviews before approval. Along this process, the amountis still subject to change. # (MTLugares, DA-RFO 10)

Misamis Oriental wins Seal of Good Local Governance award CAPITOL COMPOUND, Misamis Oriental -- The province of Misamis Oriental is named one of the winners of the coveted Seal of Good Governance (SGLG) from the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG). Considered as the

highest recognition, Governor Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano this indicates that the province is on the right track on its pro-people and pro-development programs. “This is for you people of Misamis Oriental! You worked for it and you deserve it. This seal of

good local governance speaks of the people’s acceptance of what we initiated towards progress,” the governor said said. DILG launched SGLG as a hybrid of the Seal of Good Housekeeping as it has a more comprehensive criterion in evaluating

the operations of local governments. Winning provinces of the SGLG were evaluated on six criteria namely; financial management, disaster preparedness, social projects that include access to public health and basic education, business friendliness

and competitiveness, peace and order, and environmental protection. “In every criterion, we have programs and projects that showcase our commitment towards public service and good governance which is transparent,” Gov. Emano said. (PIOMisOr/jv)

doctor in Kapatagan, Lanao del Norte on Wednesday night. Senior Superintendent Faro Antonio Olaguera, chief of the Lanao del Norte provincial police office, said in an interview Thursday that they are now investigating the murder of Dr. Dreyfuss Perlas. Perlas, a native of Aklan, was the municipal health officer of Sapad, Lanao del Norte who was shot to death by still unidentified gunmen. Olaguera said they are now collecting his belongings that could led help solve the crime. “We have gathered evidence including his phone which we are submitting to the [Philippine National Police’s] Anti-cyber Crime Group,” he said in an interview with local media Thursday. He said the investigation will focus on the report that Perlas had a heated argument with a patient or relative of a patient in Bontilao Country Hospital in Barangay Maranding, Lala, Lanao del Norte. Olaguera said the victim was driving a motorcycle and was on his way to his residence in Maranding when motorcycle-riding men drove beside him and shot him hitting his lungs, causing his death. Scene of the Crime Operatives (Soco) were able to recover a single used .45 caliber cartridge from the crime scene. Olaguera said investigators also did a background check on his family but it came up empty, so now they are looking into the Bontilao hospital shooting as the most possible motive

for the shooting. He added he has already briefed Lanao del Norte Gov. Imelda QuibranzaDimaporo on the update of the case. This reporter tried to call up the governor’s office for an official statement but failed. Olaguera said that Kapatagan town mayor Barry Baguio will be raising funds as rewards for those who could provide information on the identity and whereabouts of the suspects.

battles against each other in the eastern part of the province, classes were already suspended in the affected areas. The clashes already took the life of one soldier, Pvt. Oshin Rosala, who was killed in an encounter in Sugbongcogon town. Waga went on saying that the travel advisory does not cover the various waterfall sites in Salay town yet admitted that security in these areas is classified as “low” . But on Thursday evening, Pelaez came out on Facebook, expressing his disgust on the purported travel advisory. Pelaez said that the travel advisory attributed to the Provincial Tourism Office is “misleading” and does not reflect existing realities. “The reported encounters between the military and the NPA are isolated and took place in very far flung areas in the hinterlands,” the vice governor continued. Pelaez’s remarks are significant because this is the first time that he has criticized a department head under Emano. For the past four years, Emano and Pelaez had enjoyed a harmonious working relationship with the governor’s priority legislations approved on time by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP). A respected journalist opined in Facebook that Gov. Bambi Emano “ is actually correct in stopping tourists from going to some parts of Misamis Oriental. This guy has made tourism his flagship program and has been working to strengthen the province’s tourism sector since 2013 regardless if

his efforts are effective or not. And so, he is the first person to feel hurt by the renewed clashes between soldiers and Maoist rebels in his province. But what do you expect him to do? Pretend that everything is okay when it’s not okay, and allow tourists to risk getting caught in the crossfires?” Me anw hi le, rep or ts indicated that a massive evacuation of civilians is taking place in the areas mentioned earlier.

the benefits of their constituents. What happens if we have the worst barangay captains in our city? How could the barangays accomplish if the barangay captains would just squander the money of their barangays for travel? There is an urgent need to have strong barangay captains who are truly empowered and, more importantly, committed to the highest ideals of integrity,

dedicated public service and organizational efficiency. Foremost of these values is honesty. A barangay captain should at all times be a model of uprightness. From the simplest duty to the most complex responsibility, a barangay captain should exercise utmost sincerity. He or she should never commit any act which goes against the ethical standard of government service. Honesty also implies transparency. In dealing with their constituents, he or she should furnish all pertinent information, except when such revelation is legally prohibited. In the quest for the most responsive barangay captains in the different barangays of the city, City Mayor Celso G. Regencia has laid a groundwork for barangay project implementation. The good mayor seeks to prepare the city’s barangay executives in assuming a more developmental role, that would steer the wheel of progress towards a direction envisioned in their development blueprint. Sad to note, however, that majority of our barangay captains are not doing their duties as chief. Instead, they have acted unbecoming. We have found out lately that many of them are corrupt, ineffective and inefficient. They have squandered the people’s money instead. Good governance in the lowest local government unit is dependent on a strong barangay executive. As some say, one can craft the most balanced organizational structure and formulate the most precise processes and procedures in order to carry out barangay governmental functions, however, all of these will be useless if the professionally trained and educated barangay captains are not there to energize the structure and make the processes and procedures work. It is then absolutely necessary that those corrupt, incompetent and ineffective and people’s money squanderers should be jailed, of course, after due process of law. Agree or Disagree?

Eagles NMR1 hold one stop shop for license to possess guns By MARK FRANCISCO

MORE than 300 people were grateful to the Fraternal Order of Eagles (Philippine Eagles) NMR1 Region for facilitating a one-stop shop for license to own and possess firearms for three days this week. The activity, which was held at Buffalo Restaurant in Cagayan de Oro City, ran from March 1 to 3, 2017. There were three batches who availed of the one-stop shop processing, one for each day. Processed during the event were the notarized application form, National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) clearance, police clearance, neuro-psychiatric clearance from the Philippine National Police (PNP) Regional Health Services 10, drug test and certificate of gun safety and responsible gun ownership seminar. Participants brought with

them their NSO birth certificate, proof of billing, one government identification card and proof of income. According to NMR1 Gov. Anjun Gomez, participants are expected to get their license to own and possess firearms in two weeks’ time. “It will spare them the hassle of going to various PNP units to secure these clearances. What we are doing is a big help to them,” Gomez said. Those who attended the seminar were both Eagles and non-Eagle members, the most prominent of which was Misamis Oriental Gov. Yevgeny Vincente Emano. Another big project of NMR1 will be the release of 200,000 fingerlings of bangus at Sta. Ana River in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental this Saturday. This time, their project partner will be the Bureau of Fisher- Fraternal Order of Eagles (Philippine Eagles) NMR1 Gov. Anjun Gomez (center) poses with Misamis Oriental Gov.
