Military dares ‘rights group’ to file charges EDITOR: Cris diaz
DAVAO CITY – The militar y has urged human rights group Karapatan to file court cases against soldiers who committed human rights violations. Captain Rhyan Batchar, chief information officer of the 10th Infantry (Agila) Division of the Philippine Army, said on Sunday that Karapatan should not resort
to “trial by publicity” but file formal complaints if they have evidence against erring soldiers. Karapatan earlier accused elements of the 3rd Infantry Battalion and Task Force Haribon of harassment in the area. One particular incident pointed out by the group was the alleged prevention

killing of a certain Rodolfo Dagahuya, Jr., a 33-yearold farmer in Barangay Dominga, and the illegal search of the residence and the mauling of a civilian identified only as Lascuña in Sitio Kibaton in the same village. Batchar said that a series of military offensives were carried out in the

‘Ulamas’ can foil ISIS recruitment efforts -- AFP Muslim religious leaders also known as the “Ulamas” can help in preventing Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) terrorists and sympathizers from settling in Mindanao. This was stressed by Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) spokesperson Brig. Gen. Restituto Padilla Sunday. Earlier, community leaders in Mindanao said they need the help of the “Ulamas” to counter recruitment efforts of ISIS and other terror groups. This can be done by giving the Muslim youth proper spiritual guidance as there are some efforts to recruit the former. PNA

Timber poachers burn forest ranger’s house in Surigao Sur DAVAO CITY--The burning of a house owned by a forest ranger in Lianga, Surigao del Sur was allegedly work-related, officials said. Eric Herzon Gallego, Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) spokesperson in Caraga region, said that
Patrick Angelia lost his house on Thursday after alleged timber poachers burned it. “We believe that the burning of the house of forest ranger Patrick Angelia is work related as the Community Environment and Natural Resources Of-
fice (CENRO) in Lianga is intensifying its anti-illegal logging drive in the area,” Gallego said in a phone interview on Sunday. Angelia is a regular forest ranger at CENRO Lianga. Gallego said that four masked men burned the house of Angelia. The forest
ranger and the rest of his family members, including his aging parents, were able to escape unharmed. DENR-Caraga regional director Charlie Fabre and CENRO Lianga Hernan Ramirez both condemned the incident. “The timber poachers,

ADB lauds LGUs’ commitment on climate change issues DAVAO CITY– The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has lauded the commitment of nine pilot local government units (LGUs) to scale up their climate change adaptation and mitigation plans. The pilot LGUs underwent a 36-month capacity building under the Climate Resilience and Green Growth in Critical Watersheds project. Dr. Candido Cabrido Jr., ADB Technical Assistance (TA) team leader and a specialist of the National Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Management, said the nine LGUs now have their green houses gases (GHG) reduction plans, environment resources accounting for green economy as well as investment plans. The nine pilot LGUs are Baganga, Boston and Cateel in Davao Oriental ; Naga, Milaor and San Fernando in Camarines Sur; and Quezon City, Marikina City and Cainta, Rizal.
The project is funded by the Japan Fund for Poverty Reduction (JFPR). It aims to assist the Climate Change Commission (CCC) in demonstrating green growth and climate resilience alternatives in LGUs within critical watersheds. During the study, Cabrido said they found out that these LGUs needed capacity building to develop a roadmap to address climate change issues. He said the beneficiaries, especially those in Davao Oriental, have no updated Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP), no local climate change action plans, no inventories of GHG, lack natural resources accounting, no identification of environment resources potential and lack capacity to develop their resiliency plans. Although the LGUs’ physical framework plan and the economic framework plan have high consistency with the National Economic and Develop-

Dr. Srinivasan Ancha, ADB principal climate change specialist, said that holding the workshop in Davao City is significant because Mindanao is highly vulnerable to climate change. Ancha noted that Mindanao, which contributes 40 percent of the nation’s food supply, is also home to 11 of the 20 poorest provinces in the country. “This workshop helps catalyze what can be done in terms of food poverty alleviation and climate change. This is a challenge not only for the national government but also for provincial and local government units,” he added. PNA

STATISTICS on information and communication technology (ICT) adoption by women show very low numbers compared to men. According to the ICT Facts and Figures report by the International Telecommunication Union, the global Internet user gender gap grew from 11 percent in 2013 to 12
percent in 2016. Internet penetration rate has remained low for women specifically in the Asia Pacific region (3.95 percent) compared to men (47.5 percent). Only 30 percent of the around seven million people working in the ICT sector are women. To boost representation of women in ICT-oriented
careers, ITU members have come together to hold the International Girls in ICT Day which is to be celebrated on the fourth Thursday of April every year. The goal of the event is to create a global environment that empowers and encourages girls and young women to consider careers in IVT. The private sector too has a major role to play in
bridging the gender divide in ICT. It must encourage women participation in planning, designing and developing products and solutions that encourage more women in the ICT workforce. A multipronged approach has to be taken that acknowledges, debates and addresses the problems that may hinder ICT adoption by women.

“Walang FOREVER” as they said. Yes, even summer has come to an end; it’s back to school again. It’s time to prepare our school campus buildings to be physically ready and be part in upbringing the “tabularasa” mind of the learners. This May 15-20, 2017, the Department of Education once again conducts Brigada Eskwela 2017 also known as the National Schools’ Maintenance Week as anchored by DepEd Memorandum no.
43 s. 2017 in all primary and secondary public schools. In the implementation of this DepEd Memorandum, regional offices and schools division offices shall hold a caravan to launch the first day of Brigada Eskwela and to encourage all stakeholders to gracefully join the kick-off ceremony hold in a public school as the final stop of the caravan. L o c a l g ov e r n m e nt units from provincial to barangay levels, private partners, academe, civil
society organizations, private corporations, and even individual volunteers shall work hand-in-hand to give fully their time, manpower, effort, and resources to renovate, repair, beautify, redecorate, and repaint the schools all over the country as this year’s Brigada Eskwela theme “Isang DepEd, Isang Pamayanan, Isang Bayanihan Para sa Handa at Ligtas na Paaralan”. As former DepEd Secretary Luistro said, “every filipino can contribute in helping create clean and resilient learning environment for our learners.”
Indeed, Brigada Eskwela brings togetherness and a mirror for “bayanihan”, camaraderie, participation, and cooperation among stakeholders nationwide. It certainly carries a haven like learning environment and a welcoming aura to flare up the minds and ignite the hearts of every Filipino learner to achieve what they dreamt off and to hold the torch of success soon through education. So what are you waiting for, gear up yourselves now and give your all out support. “Tulong na, tara na, mag Brigada Eskwela na”.

That’s very well recognized. And the international community also understands that those are the basic foundation if we are to develop a very robust economy,” Lopez said. Lopez said that President Duterte ensures that in all of his trips abroad, and not only at the WEF, the President makes the pitch for the Philippines by underscoring significant developments in the country especially in trade and investment, industrial and infrastructure development, and economic growth. “Kasi ang bottom line kay President, gusto niya talaga magkaroon ng trabaho, magkaroon ng nego-

You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, syo ‘yung mga kababayan natin. Talagang ma-empower sila, lalo na ‘yung mga nasa baba na lahat pwedeng umasenso, lahat pwedeng magtagumpay,” he said. Lopez meanwhile said other ASEAN leaders are “in full support” of the illegal drugs campaign of the President considering the harmful effects of illegal drugs in the society, adding that such problem impedes nation development. In Cambodia, President Duterte had a bilateral meeting with Air Asia’s CEO Tony Fernandes who pledged to expand its air coverage in the Philippines as an expression of his trust and confidence in the leadership of Duterte. “This is a specific, very clear indication on the acceptability of the President’s leadership insofar as his economic program is concerned,” Transportation Secretary ArthurTugade said. Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi meanwhile said that in the WEF, he encouraged investors to put up more power plants in the country, which will also contribute to economic development. “We highlighted also that the Philippines in the energy sector, we are open for business,” he said.

Judas was possessed “The relentless drive of the DENR on anti-illegal logging may have drawn the ire of timber poachers in the area, who burned Angelia’s house,” Ramirez said. Gallego said that DENR regional officials headed by Fabre already visited Angelia and his family and assured them of the agency’s assistance. He added that DENR workers in Caraga are also now raising funds and collecting clothes to support Angelia and his family. “Right now, Angelia and his family, about nine of them, are staying at the house of their relative in Lianga,” Gallego said.
