Gunmen kill police officer in Davao Oriental

By Armando Fenequito, Jr.

DAVAO CITY--Motorcycle riding gunmen shot dead a police officer in Davao Oriental Monday evening. Chief Insp. Milgrace Driz, Police Regional Office-11 (PRO-11) spokesperson, identified the victim as PO3 Walter Canja, who was assigned with the Provincial Mobile Force Company of the Davao Oriental Police Provincial Office. Based on the report, Driz said Canja was driving a pick-up car around 7:00 p.m. on May 2 on his way home from the public market in poblacion area in Purok Trabahador Menzi in Barangay Dahican, Mati City, when he was attacked by the suspects. Driz said the two suspects wearing bonnets overtook Canja's vehicle Canja and shot the police officer, hitting the latter in different parts of his body. The suspects fled to See kill, page 11

He said reporters must adhere to ethical reporting now more than ever so that the people will not be deceived by a slew of fake information being posted and shared online. Magbanua emphasized that the COPC has its own code of ethics which serves as guideline for its member media practitioners. “Accuracy: We shall be guided at all times by accuracy, fairness, independence and balance, and should not deliberately mislead or misinform the public. We shall aim to disclose all known, relevant facts,” read a part of the club’s code of ethics.

Capitol team stakes claim to unaccounted properties By MARK FRANCISCO

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - The provincial government of Misamis Oriental has “discovered” 33 more properties all over the province and in Cagayan de Oro

City that were previously unaccounted. Misamis Oriental provincial administrator Jocelyn Mateo revealed yesterday that the Provin-

cial Inventory Committee formed by Gov. Yevgeny Vincente Emano last March had stumbled upon dozens of documents proving that Capitol indeed owned these estates. Mateo said these lands

could be found as far as the municipalities of Magsaysay to the east and Manticao to the west and even in certain parts of Cagayan de Oro City. Mateo even said that some of these properties in

Cagayan de Oro City already have structures erected in them while others are occupied by squatters. “For instance, that site occupied by a Graphic billboard at Corrales-Luna junction, we discovered

that that property is ours. There’s also a vacant lot beside BPI in Capistrano near the Amphitheater that is ours too,” she pointed out. Mateo added that there’s even a big piece of land in See claim, page 11

Barangay chair nabbed for illegal drugs in NorthCot released on bail

IDAPAWAN CITY – The re-elected barangay chairman in Makilala, North Cotabato who was arrested last week for possession of an illegal drug has already been released from the custody of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) in Region 12 after he posted bail on Friday.

Melvin Fortajada, chairman of Barangay Malasila, said his lawyer posted at least P320,000 for the two cases filed against him – possession of methamphetamine hydrochloride or shabu and possession of ammunition of a pistol. He said operatives of PDEA placed him temporarily at their regional

headquarters in General Santos City hours after his arrest in Makilala on May 15 while waiting for the court’s decision on his bail. In an interview, the barangay chairman has denied any involvement in drug trafficking. Fortajada, however, admitted having an “acquaintance” with a certain Juvie

who, in 2017, was arrested by PDEA in Makilala for illegal drugs. Juvie, records from PDEA showed, is a big-time supplier of shabu in North Cotabato. Fortajada also denied links with the son of a town mayor in North Cotabato who later confessed in public to be a drug user and now helping the local government in its campaign against drugs. “I swear and I can say honestly that I am not in anyway involved in drugs. Even if it would cost the life of my family. That’s how firm my conviction is,” said Fortajada in Cebuano. But when interviewed over the Catholic-r un

DXND last week, he confessed to being a drug user and admitted having yielded to authorities when police intensified their “Operation Tokhang” in 2016. He said he surrendered to Makilala Mayor Rudy Caoagdan.

Fortajada said PDEA operatives abused their authority when they raided his house and took some of his belongings, including cash. According to him, among those that were seized but

not stipulated in the PDEA’s report were a gold necklace, an expensive watch, and P20,000 cash. He alleged there were two batches of PDEA operatives that raided his house.

4-hour fire levels Cotabato public market COTABATO CITY--A huge fire razed to the ground the city public market here shortly before midnight Monday. The four-hour conflagration gutted down the market’s two-storey building and some 1, 500 stalls inside the facility, said Fire Officer 2 Aldrin Nara, city fore department spokesman. The cause of the fire remains unknown, but Nara said accounts from witnesses indicated that it started around 11:30 p.m., and originated from the market’s meat section. No one perished from the fire, but a fireman sustained minor burns from battling the conflagration. “We had a hard time engaging the fire particularly

at the second floor of the building used by second hand clothing vendors,” Nara said. The fire was declared under control around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday. Nur Karim, a dry goods stall owner, said he lost some Php200, 000 worth

of stocks in the fire. “I am still at a lost how to start over again,” Karim said in the dialect. Hadja Kariman, a mobile phone accessories and repair stall owner, said she saved nothing as she watched helplessly the fire engulfing See fire, page 11

Marawi and beyond

As we approach the first anniversary of the Marawi Siege that started on May 23, 2017, several questions have begun to loom large. What is the future of Marawi? How do we help the thousands of internally displaced persons return to their homes or new surroundings? What will happen to the second draft of the Bangsamoro Basic Law now pending in Congress? How do we address the specter of violent extremism that may be spreading to other parts of Mindanao? What is the role of religious leaders? What is the contribution of schools as well as of ordinary communities of Christians, Muslims and indigenous people in building a Culture of Peace? These were some of the questions addressed by twelve Catholic bishops and twelve Muslim religious leaders in a dialogue meeting on "Marawi and Beyond" held in Cagayan de Oro City on April 12, 2018. The bishops represented their arch/dioceses of Ozamis, Dipolog, Pagadian, Ipil, Isabela, Jolo, Cagayan de Oro, Malaybalay, Surigao, Tandag, Davao, and the Prelature of St. Mary's in Marawi. The Muslim religious leaders represented several organizations of ulama and imams; peace and interfaith centers; and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. They came from Cotabato, Maguindanao, Pagadian, Marawi and Cagayan de Oro.

The dialogue meeting started with a video interview of a Muslim leader who recounted his actions in bringing to safety his Christian companions at the outbreak of the fighting in the downtown area of Marawi. Bishop Edwin de la Peña of Marawi then described the creation of Duyog Marawi, a collaborative effort spearheaded by the prelature to mobilize Muslim and Christian volunteers for the ongoing relief work that was being undertaken, particularly along the "peace corridor" opened up by the MILF along the other side of Lake Lanao across Marawi. The participants then took turns in expressing their concerns and perspectives on the post-Marawi siege situation. Seven summary observations can be highlighted. 1) Not too long ago, there were harmonious relations among Christian and Muslim communities. We need to restore these relationships of trust and mutual caring. 2) We are all against violent extremism. The attraction is particularly felt among the younger Muslims who are frustrated by the lack of fulfillment of earlier promises and the long delay in passing the Bangsamoro Basic Law which would be the implementation of the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro. 3) Muslim and Christian religious leaders should be united in working for a Cul-

ture of Peace in Mindanao and the rest of the country. Both Islam and Christianity are religions of peace. Religious leaders are the respected promoters of values for their communities. 4) The displaced residents of Marawi should be allowed to participate in the rehabilitation plan for their city. They have suffered much already in evacuation centers or in cramped quarters with their relatives in neighboring cities. 5) Many of the Marawi residents do not have titles or other documents to their occupied lands. By custom and tradition they have been living there without the need for formalities. Hence, this will pose a challenge to authorities who have earlier expressed the requirement of at least some tax or land declaration. 6) The role of schools and the Madrasah system in promoting peace education is indispensable. The Department of Education plays a crucial role in introducing peace education in the curriculum. 7) There is need to look after the long-term solution by transforming the minds and hearts of all stakeholders in Mindanao. Concretely the passage of the BBL can provide a sustainable framework for the peace and development of Mindanao. In the course of the discussions, many participants recommended a wider gathering of religious leaders to stress the importance

Abp. Antonio Ledesma, SJ

of religious and spiritual values that go beyond merely political solutions in resolving the age-old problem of social conflict in Mindanao. Two days later after the dialogue meeting, the Catholic bishops accompanied Bishop De la Peña on a sentimental visit to his war-torn church and bishop's house at Ground Zero in Marawi City. Part of the flooring was still wet from the rains that went through the pock-marked roofing. We looked at the disfigured statues that had been dismembered by some youthful ISIS fighters. This was done and shown on video during the first day of the siege when the attackers also held hostage Fr. Chito Suganob and a number of his church staff. At this moment, we recalled the saying of several Muslim religious leaders in our dialogue, denouncing these acts of violence as un-Islamic and not the true face of a religion of peace. May the first anniversary of the Marawi siege then be a clarion call for both Christians and Muslims to look beyond and work together in forging a Culture of Peace and Development for the island-world of Mindanao.

Letters from Davao

Revisiting Boracay

Except for a number of leftist Party-list organizations, which are legal fronts of the Communist Party of the Philippines and the New Peoples Army, only the grandstanding clerics and non-government organizations are still stirring up a storm from a whiff of wind. Ex-Justice Ma. Lourdes Sereno opted to fight her battle in her own turf and against her peers and democracy will not die just because she lost in that. Only the communists and their legal fronts are shouting “DEMOCRACY IS DEAD” -- a fiery statement which they are wont to trumpet anyway.So we move on but wait. Let me take you back to the other controversial subject -- Boracay – where some startling events took place while the High Court was on fire. It looks like while everybody was focused on the Sereno debate, the vultures in Boracay are back with their brute exercise of power and insatiable greed. While we are shown the luxuriant growth of algae

that feed on untreated pollutants from the establishments along what used to be a pristine shoreline of Boracay, we have yet to be updated on the issue of massive corruption involving billions of pesos collected from environmental fees, the sale of wetlands, “sale” of permits to establishments which allowed to build structures within the so-called 25+5 shoreline demarkation. And if I were to add a question because this matter seemed to be buried in the polluted sands of Boracay, I want to know why the water utilities failed to provide a decent sewerage system when their water rates is about the most expensive in the Philippines, if not the world? The DENR , DPWH and DILG are showing us pictures of sewerage and drainage pipes to impress us they discovered something spectacular. Those are hogwash. What these agencies should tell us is why the water utilities has no sewerage system in this little island of 1,000 hectares and why

the local government simply closed their eyes on this and other anomalies that reeks in this island paradise gone cesspool. Consider this, when President Duterte ordered the closure, the local government of Boracay, the local tourism industry and the Department of Tourism estimated that the total estimated revenues loss will amount to P60-billion in the 6-month period that it will be closed. If this is so, then how come the facilities are so decrepit and yes, President Duterte is correct in calling it a virtual cesspool. I wrote a piece about Boracay when President Duterte ordered the closure of the island to tourism activity for what we may term as a major rehab. I thought that was that, but I am getting a deluge of information including photos that are too shocking as to be ignored. The most recent was the flagrant violation of Presidential and Department directives to stop any development in the island. But what do we see? The whole mountain

top levelled flat and the trees gone! This islet, I presume, is crawling with DENR and local government authorities to include a contingent of soldiers. Then how can this blatant abuse take place? The lame excuse we are getting is that that wide area of land cleared on top of the forest land took place long before the closure order. My gosh they haven’t stop their tomfoolery. The levelled ground and its color show this was a very recent activity. Then I received several photos of West Cove being demolished not only by sledge hammers but the bastards set the building on fire! In any language you can term this ARSON. I received a copy of a police report which identified who were present in the building when several rooms of the hotel were burning. See boracay, page 10

PET starts retrieval of Iloilo ballots for VP vote recount The Presidential Electoral Tribunal (PET) on Monday started retrieving the more than 2,000 ballot boxes from Iloilo City and the province in preparation for the vote recount in line with the poll protest of defeated Vice Presidential candidate Ferdinand Marcos Jr. The ballot boxes are from the 2,748 clustered precincts in the city and the province, said lawyer Emilio Marañon, one of the members of the legal team of Vice President Leni Robredo, who is here to observe the retrieval. Of the number, 2,318 of the clustered precincts are from the province and 430 from the city. The five-day retrieval of ballots will end May 25. It is being done per district, starting with the first district of the province composed of the towns of Oton, Tigbauan, Tubungan, Igbaras, Guimbal, Miag-ao and San Joaquin. Retrieval of ballots from Iloilo City will be done simultaneously with the sec-

ond district of the province on Tuesday. These towns in second district are composed of Leganes, Pavia, Zarraga, New Lucena,Santa Barbara, San Miguel, Alimodian and Leon. These ballot boxes are gathered at the warehouse of the Philippine Span Asia Carrier Corp. in the village of Balabago, district of Jaro in this city. Marañon said these ballots will be shipped to Manila two to three days after their retrieved. The recount of ballots from Iloilo will be done after completion of the recount of the ballot boxes in Camarines Sur, he said. Ballots from the 800 out of the about 1,800 clustered precincts in Camarines Sur have been recounted, he added. Marañon expressed confidence that the result of the votes during the 2016 elections will match with the recount of the Supreme Court. “As always, we are saying

Malady of Absenteeism By Danielyn G. Duman-ag, Teacher III Quezon Central Elementary School

“Bear in mind that the wonderful things you learn in your schools are the work of many generations, produced by enthusiastic effort and infinite labor in every country of the world. All this is put into your hands as your inheritance in order that you may receive it, honor it, add to it, and one day faithfully hand it to your children. Thus do we mortals achieve immortality in the permanent things which we create in common” - Albert Einstein We all know that the most common problem in school nowadays and even in the offices is the increasing case of absenteeism. But first what is absenteeism? Well, absenteeism is the habitual pattern of absence from a duty or obligation. A study conducted shows that absenteeism can lead to a Poor Academic Progress. Students’ absenteeism may result in poor academic achievement because students were not able to receive instruction on a consecutive basis. This also causes low standardized test scores because absent students are not present to learn key concepts and skills that are assessed on standardized exams. Student absenteeism can lead to an increasing disinterest in school and academics in general. Absenteeism increases the chances of a student

The vote recount protest of Marcos cover 22 provinces and five cities in the whole country. But he said that the three pilot provinces will determine whether the protest case of Marcos will continue in other areas or not. “If there is substantial recovery then it will continue with rest of the results, but if none, the case will be dismissed,” he said. Marañon said that they are expecting that the recount of the votes from the three pilot provinces will be completed within eight months. However, he said that RETRIEVAL OF BALLOTS. The retrieval of more than 2,000 ballot boxes in the city they cannot determine yet and province of Iloilo in preparation for the vote recount in line with the poll protest of defeated Vice Presidential candidate Ferdinand Marcos Jr starts Monday (May 21). when the results will come out.

Reading Remediation to Grade 7 Students under Frustration Level By LORNA A. CAGAMPANG Teacher III Lala National High School Maranding, Lala, Lanao del Norte

READING is one of the vital facets of learning. DepEd through its Memorandum 244 Series of 2012 has declared November as the National Reading Month of every year and November 25 as the Nationwide Araw ng Pagbasa. This is in support to the institutionalization of eventually dropping out of school, which can lead to long term consequences for these students. Such as: lower average incomes, higher incidences of unemployment, and a higher likelihood of incarceration in poverty. The students who drop out of school face a higher risk of poverty because of their inability to secure quality paying employment due to their lack of education. Dropouts who lack education and resources are more likely to commit criminal activity leading to incarceration. Absenteeism also places an extreme strain on the school’s budget allocated in each school district. Absenteeism sometimes has also causes to some no longer like to go to school because they are being bullied by their classmates or they may be lack of motivation and inspiration. This merits an in-depth investigation by both parents and school authorities to eradicate the problem of absenteeism.

New fuel player vows to grab huge local market By GERRY LEE GORIT

A NEW entrant in the fuel distribution industry has maintained its edge in the face of the dominance of giant players in the country by focusing on the local market in some parts of Mindanao. Engr. Ronald Reyes, general manager of Blu Energy, said being a local company has its advantages as they are more familiar with their clientele and be mindful of their needs. “We see to it that our faci l it i e s are i n go o d condition. All our pumps are working. We ensure that there’s no run-out in our stations, and our restrooms are clean and functional,” Reyes said in an interview recently. Aside from maintaining the functionality of the facilities in their stations across Mindanao, he said Blu Energy also put premium

INDUSTRY GROWTH. Power generation in Northern Mindanao is expected to improve further once the first of GNPower Kauswagan 4x138MW coal-fired power generators in Kauswagan, Lanao del Norte starts feeding power to the Mindanao Grid later this year. GNPK has close to 400MW of signed contracts with distribution utilities, with the balance to be offered in the Mindanao Wholesale Electricity Market (WESM).

has also launched various raffles giving away essential prizes such as a house, car, motorcycles, and other items. To date, Blu Energy has 20 fuel refilling stations in the cities of Iligan, Davao,

Cagayan de Oro, as well as in Bukidnon and the Caraga region. The firm’s plan is to establish more branches in the western part of Mindanao, particularly in See fuel, page 11

DTI encourages micro enterprises to avail of incentives under BMBE Law The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) encouraged underground micro entrepreneurs to make formal their businesses and avail incentives readily available to them through the Barangay Micro-Business Enterprise (BMBE) Law. “We highly encourage micro enterprises to register their businesses and avail of the incentives under

the BMBE Law,” DTI Regional Operations Group Undersecretary Zenaida Maglaya said. Maglaya explained that micro enterprises who have registered BMBEs can avail of government incentives that include exemption from payment of income tax for income arising from the operation of the enterprise, exemption from the coverage of the minimum

wage law, special credit window from government financing institutions that will service financing needs of BMBEs, business assistance from other government institutions, as well as technology and marketing assistance. Under Republic Act No. 9178 or the BMBEs Act of 2002, a micro enterprise is referred to as any business entity or enterprise engaged

in the production, processing or manufacturing of products or commodities, including agro-processing, trading, and services whose total assets, excluding land, shall not be more than P3 million. Such assets shall include those arising from loans but not the land on which the plant and equipment are located. Per statistics, 30.5% of 99.6% of total business

establishments are micro enterprises (MSMEs). Micro enterprises also provide 62.8% or 2,372,678 employment to Filipinos. BMBE certificates are registered free of charge at the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) offices or Negosyo Centers. To date, there are over 800 Negosyo Centers nationwide that assist micro enterprises to facilitate

BMBE applicants. A total of 28,531 micro enterprises have registered under BMBE as of April 31, 2018 since DTI started accepting applications in January 2016. Maglaya said formalization of business will not only help the entrepreneur but will also provide benefits to business and employment to Filipinos,

Aussie backs Duterte’s anti-corruption drive D

AVAO CITY--President Rodrigo Duterte has found an ally on his campaign against corruption in the Australian government.

Mat Kimberly, Australian Embassy’s Deputy Head of Mission to the Philippines, said his country Australia strongly supports President Duterte’s drive against corruption as it “will bring greater opportunity for the Philippines.” “The Australian Government and the Philippine Government have a very strong relationship. We encourage the drive of President Duterte against corruption,” Kimberly said in an interview Monday. “This government shows a strong push for reform that can bring a better future for the Philippines,” he added. Duterte has fired several members of his cabinet for their alleged involvement Mayor Sara Duterte signs the memorandum of agreement with Isla Lipana & Co. on Wednesday (16 May 2018) to in irregularities. update the city’s investment code. Isla Lipana, which is part of the London-based PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), “I will fire them in just is represented by its chairman and senior partner, lawyer Alexander Cabrera.

Free tuition law info drive expanded in Davao Region DAVAO CITY -- The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and the Unified Financial Assistance System for Tertiary Education (UniFAST) recently conducted an information drive to create awareness on RA 10931 or the Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Act among the stakeholders here. “We are going around the country to spread free higher education. We want to cover all qualified college students,” UniFAST Executive Director Carmelita Yadao-Sison said. Yadao-Sison announced that free higher education benefits for students in SUCs and LUCs include tuition fee for all subjects, courses or classes and free miscellaneous and other school fees. Starting this school year, the free tuition law will be expanded to benefit not just state universities and colleges but also local universities and colleges. CHED Regional Director Raul Alvarez Jr. estimated that around 35,000 students in Region XI have availed themselves of the benefits of the free higher education program.

Nation-wide, about 900,000 students benefited from the program, he said. The program disqualifies students who have already obtained a bachelor’s degree or comparable undergraduate degree from any public or private higher education institution. The program also offers free Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in post-secondary state-run TVIS. All state-run TVIs may provide free TVET benefit provided that the postsecondary TVET programs are registered under TESDA. The free TVET benefits in STVIs include consumables, cost of utilities, honorarium of trainers, living allowance, instructional materials allowance, and starter toolkit, among others. RA 10931 covers all Filipino students who are either currently enrolled or shall enrol ime thereafter in courses leading to a bachelor’s degree in any SUC and LUC. Benefits may only be granted if the student qualifies under the admission and retention requirements of the school. PNA

one swoop. They are about five in the list... No offense intended, but public office is still an opportunity really to make money,” Duterte said during the ceremonial opening of oil and gas production of the Alegria Oilfield Polyard-3 Well Site in Cebu on May 20. Last week, Duterte asked Justice Assistant Secretary Moslemen Macarambon Sr. and Public Works Assistant Secretary Tingagun Umpa to tender their resignation or be fired for their alleged involvement in corrupt acts. Kimberly also assured that the relationship of the Philippines and Australia remains strong despite the issue involving the deportation order against Australian nun Patricia Fox. See backs, page 11

Davao City Comelec explains delayed poll tellers’ honoraria DAVAO CITY--The Comm i s s i on on E l e c t i ons (Comelec) here has appealed to teachers who served as Board of Election Tellers (BET) for consideration over the delay in their honoraria. Davao City-Comelec spokesperson Mohammad Omar Samama explained that the delay was caused by the confusion on how to resolve the deduction of the 5-percent withholding

tax. After the appeal of the Alliance of Concerned Teachers Party-list to exempt them from the tax, the problem emerged because certain members of the electoral board were exempted and others were not,” Samama said in an interview on Friday. He said the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has approved the request of the teachers, but only for those

who have an annual income of less than PHP250,000. “There was confusion on our part on who are subject to taxation and who are not because we do not know them personally,” Samama said. He said that with the approval, teachers who want to be exempted need to submit a notarized sworn statement that their annual income is only PHP250,000 or less. Teachers who want

to be deducted with the 5 percent tax may simply fill out a BIR 2307 form. Teachers who misdeclare their income may be liable for perjury, Samama warned. Another factor for the delay is the considerable number of teachers who served as Board of Election Inspectors (BEIs) in Davao City -- 8,199 in total, he said.

DAVAO CITY -- The government’s goal of interconnecting the nation’s three major power grids into a single national grid will be realized in 2020, a ranking official of the Department of Energy (DOE) announced. Patrick Aquino, director of Energy Policy and Planning Bureau said once the Luzon-Visayas-Mindanao interconnection project is completed by December of 2020, the proposed single

grid will allow the country’s three island groups to share power reserves with each other. “There can be exports or imports of electric power between or among the main islands in the country,” Aquino said. He noted that the linkup of the grids would strengthen the country’s energy infrastructure resiliency as it would enable one island group to supply the

deficiency of supply in the other islands. To illustrate, the deficiency of supply in Mindanao may be supplied by importing power from Luzon or Visayas, he said. He also noted that the interconnection would not only stabilize supply but should also result in the widening of the electricity market in Mindanao since a unified grid would encourage more investments in the

power plants. But just as the project is being pursued, Aquino explained that the overall direction of the DOE is to ensure the availability of indigenous power resources in communities in order to meet their needs. “Both projects come hand in hand since the project will be a redundancy later on, that when something happens to the

Human Resource Management practices influencing organizational development in three institutions of higher learning in Mindanao By ELISEO I. FELISILDA, Ph.D. T-III/OIC LARAPAN Elementary School Malitbog II District Division of Bukidnon

An organization is nothing without human resources. What is IBM without its employees? Similarly, if you remove people element from such varied organizations as San Miguel Corporation, t he Ph i l ippi ne Ar me d Fo r c e s , Un i v e r s i t y o f the Philippines, or the Shell Oil Company, you have void edifices and structures without life. This is to dramatize something that is essential regarding human resources and what it can do to any organization. When we think millions of

organizations that provide goods and services, we explicitly consider that t h e s e e nt it i e s d e p e n d largely on people to make them operate. It is probably only under unusual circumstances, such as when the sales clerks go on strike at your local supermarket or the teachers that walk out in your school district, that you recognize their important roles. Human res ource management is a fascinating and important subject. The fascination lies in t he fac t t hat it involves people and the decisions for which they are m a d e t o ke e p t h e business going. The basic premise underlying the study of human resource management is that

decisions on how people are managed make the difference. People are the most valuable assets to any well meaning organization. They must feel secure, important, challenged, in control of their destiny, confident in the leadership, responsive to common goals, believe they are being treated fairly, have easy access to authority and op en lines of communications in all possible directions ( D av i d , 1 9 9 1 ) . T h e s e among others should be considered desirable climate. There is also a ne e d to maximize t he benefits of cooperation and teamwork fusing high technology with human talent, to realize the full potential of the employees

Quandary of Pupil’s Poor in Attendance By Danielyn G. Duman-ag, Teacher III Quezon Central Elementary School

“If we get our attendance up around 3 million things could change” -Tom Hicks, American Businessman. Poor attendance is a common problem for school and 0ffices. Most schools have problems, from time to time, with fairly regular non-attendance by one or more students. This makes it difficult to apply in molding good quality students. Lot of things happened in the school even if we only miss one meeting, as what Tom Hicks said attending class regularly can change a million things that is how important attending classes is. Attendance rate is important because students are more likely to succeed in academics when they attend school consistently. It’s difficult for teacher

to build their kills and progress if a large number of students are frequently absent. In addition to falling behind in academics, students who are not in school on a regular basis are more likely to get into trouble with the law and cause problems in their communities. School budgets may suffer when students don’t attend. In many states outside the Philippines, school budgets are based on the average daily attendance at a school. These suggestions are ought to follow to increase schools attendance: · Make the school a place where parents and students feel welcome. · Build a relationship with local law enforcement and make them allies in showing good atmosphere in the community, family

(leap et al, 1993). The call of the times is getting the best potentials on human and other resources for productivity. Te c h n o l o g i c a l a n d globalization trends are in tur n pro ducing changes in t he nature of jobs and work. Technological changes i n t h e n atu re of j o b s and work. Technological changes include the influx of robotics, information communication gadgets s u c h a s t e c h n o l o g y, personal computers, fax machines etc. All these have allowed companies to relo cate op erations for optimum output. H o w e v e r, t h e m o s t n ot abl e t re n d s i n t h e nature of work are the trends to service job, and to acknowledge work and stress on human capital (Shostak, 1993). Dr ucker(1996) in a study advanced the idea t h at wou l d s o on b e ar little resemblance to the typical manufac turing company 30 years ago. He p r e d i c t s t h a t t h e business operation will be knowledge-based, an organization composed largely of specialists who direct and discipline their own performance through organized feedback from

c ol l e ag u e s , c o stu me rs and headquarters. The d i re c t i on is su ch t hat the distinguishing characteristic of c o mp a n i e s t o d ay a n d tomorrow, has the growing emphasis on human capital- the knowledge, education, training, skills, and expertise of a firm’s workers-at the expense of physical capital like equipment, machiner y, and the physical plant (Crawford, 1991). In the same vain, Thompson (1992) noted that today things are different in the business world. It calls for the responsiveness and sensitively to realities of the time. It calls for ways and means to address these realities using the best and time tested strategies. Strategies increasingly depend on straightening organizational responsiveness and on building committed work teams. These strategies put human resource in a central role. In a fast changing globally competitive and qualityoriented industrial environment, it is often t h e f i r m’s e m p l o y e e s t h e ms e lve s - it s hu m an re s o u rc e i n a c e nt r a l role. In a fast changing,

globally competitive and quality-oriented industrial environment, i t i s o f t e n t h e f i r m’s employees themselvesits human resources who could provide the c omp e t it ive ke y. T h i s is succinctly described by Hennessey (1995) in a study that the success of any enterprise often depends largely on the e f f e c t i v e n e s s t h rou g h which workers are recruited, hired, trained, evaluated, and rewarded. Mo re ov e r, e mp l oy e e’s interests among others, also dictate ongoing assessment and flexible decision-making. By and l arge hu m an re s ou rc e activities can affect external conditions, albeit organizational conditions through the quality and level of satisfaction of employees (Milkovich, 1988). Thus, acquisition and preparation of the best employees topping their best potentials by training and developing them so that they will remain motivated at even higher levels in dealing w it h t he mu lt itu d e of decisions involving people is most vital in bu s i ne ss org an i z at i on (Leap et al, 1993).

and students that school is the place to be. · Forge a relationship with local businesses so that they cooperate in encouraging students to go to school and not congregate at businesses during school hours. · Call parents when their children are not in school to let them know the school is concerned. · Talks to students and let them know what they missed.

Boracay... from page 4

The owner of West Cove, a certain Cris Aquino, only recourse to reach authorities to air his grievance is via Facebook. Pity the guy, I hope it is not because of his name that he is being subjected to this ignominy. In his posts, we learned that he obtained a special land use permit (for tourism) from DENR and had been paying his dues promptly. He said that it is not true that the

Supreme Court nullified his FLAG-T permit. What seems to be his calvary is the cancellation of the FLAGT permit by DENR by the previous administration, which he said is presently under appeal with the office of the President. If this Aquino reads Duterte’s edict that if complaints similar to his are not acted in 72 hours, these are either deemed granted or he should assert his right before the President himself. If the President is busy, you

have an action man in the person of Sec. Christopher “Bong” Go who is also on top of the Presidential Management Staff to get your case moving. Let’s leave Aquino in his misery and look at other administratively actionable shenanigans that is taking place in the rehab of the island. One big hotel establishment, which was reported as having grave violation, is not being touched. Many DENR and DILG officials are billeted

However, the generation sector recovered with an impressive 15.9 percent growth for 2017 as more units of the FDC Misamis Power Corporation coal fired power plant at the Phividec Industrial Estate in Villanueva, and the Minergy Coal facility in Balingasag, both in Misamis Oriental, came online. Data from the Department of Energy (DOE) shows gross generation rising 16.9 percent to 5,725,434 megawatt hours (MWh) from 2016 when it dropped 5.5 percent to 4,938,017 MWh from 5,224,333 MWh in 2015. A closer look at the region’s Gross Generation data from 2015-2017 shows t hat coal f ired p ower plants continued to gain a larger share of the power mix from 42% (2016) to 45% (2017) even as the traditionally renewable energ y region hosting the Agus Hydropower Complex reverted to 44% due to favorable weather conditions and distribution utilities continued scaling back from more expensive oil-fired power plants from 11% in 2016 to only 3% by 2017. E le c t r icit y s a les of distribution utilities performed even better with an 18.8 percent upsurge to 2,588,983 MWh in 2017 from 2,178,639 MWh in 2016 (which was a 6.9 percent reduction from 2,340,389 MWh in 2015) as households, industries and commercial establishments took advantage of the readily available power to ramp up previously suppressed expansion plans. However, transmission sales dropped 8.5 percent to 2,230,470 MWh in 2017 from 2,178,639 MWh as grid operator National G r i d C o r p o r at i o n o f the Philippines turned over many of its 69KVA transmission assets to distribution utilities as mandated under the EPIRA Law and an increasing number of distribution utilities resorted to

Growth in the region’s electricity subsector is expected to improve further once two big ticket coal fired power plants starts full operations and nine other renewable energy projects in Misamis Oriental and Bukidnon start operations.

However, it will be eclipsed by the 552MW GN Power Kauswagan coal fired power plant in Lanao del Norte once the latter starts operations later this year. The USD 2.5-Billion (P12.5-B) power plant is a joint venture of Ayala C orporation and shell company Power Partners Ltd. Co.

Simi l arly, four firms have filed for incentives with the Board of Investments Region 10 office for five renewable energy projects, also in Bukidnon including biomass, solar and hydropower plants with a total investment of P5.23-B. Besides electricity, the water sector continues to grow as volume of water sales by water utilities and bulk water suppliers continued, growing 5.4 percent from 53,847,718 cubic meters (cu.m.) in 2015 to 56,777,651 cu.m.
