Give cash, not shelter, JV urges government By MARK FRANCISCO, Correspondent
CAGAYAN de Oro City--Senator JV Ejercito is proposing to the government that it should doleout cash to war affected residents in Marawi City instead of designating relocation sites and providing EJERCITO them with shelters. Speaking in a press conference in Cagayan de Oro City yesterday, Ejercito said it would take five years before residents could occupy their new homes if the government constructs it for them. “We will need to survey the place, lay out the design Limketkai Luxe Cdo manager Jerome de la Fuente lectures about marketing basics to members of the Regional Association of Government Communicators during a two-day seminar organized by Mindanao Daily News last April 12 to 13 at of the land and begin the construction phase.

Environmental group seeks seizure of banned skin whitening cosmetics in Davao DAVAO City--EcoWaste Coalition called on Mayor Sara Duterte to confiscate banned mercury-containing skin whitening cosmetics that are being sold in different stores in the city. Eileen B. Sison, EcoWaste Coalition president cited that such products contain high concentrations of mer-
cury above the allowable limit of 1 part per million (ppm) as prescribed by the ASEAN Cosmetics Directive. “Mercury, as you may know, is dangerous to human health and very damaging to the environment,” Sison said in her letter addressed to Duterte dated April 5, 2018.
She said they conducted test buys on April 2 and 3 to determine compliance of stores with the government’s regulation prohibiting mercury in cosmetic formulations above the trace amount of 1 ppm. She said they obtained 12 Banned cosmetic products. Photo courtesy of Ecowaste See BANNED, page 7

Military captures ASG member in Sulu clash LABANGAN, Zamboanga del Sur--Operating troops of the 32nd Infantry Battalion under the 1st Infantry (Tabak) Division recently captured a member of the Abu Sayyaf Group in Brgy Taung, Patikul, Sulu. The 32nd IB troopers led by 1Lt Primo A. Passion were conducting clearing operation at the vicinity of the said area on March 31 when they clashed with five ASG members under Walton Juljirin. Lt. Col. Ronaldo C. Mateo, commanding officer of the 32nd IB, said the ASG group wase at the house of Juljirin when they engaged in a firefight. Four ASG members were able to escape but Juljirin was left behind due to his health condition resulting
from an infected wound from a previous encounter with government forces. He reportedly attempted to escape but troops immediately caught up with him. The military recovered one Cal 7.62 FN-G1 rifle, one magazine with ammunitions, a suspected IED and two hand grenades. “The cooperation of the civilians who reported the armed group’s presence in their area is a strong manifestation that civilians have long been tired of the ASG’s terroristic activities and are now actively helping the military locate them. This contributes much in the total elimination of all terrorists in the Province of Sulu,” Mateo concluded. (ALT-PIA9/Zamboanga Sibugay/1ID Press Release)
Tabak chief calls on Filipinos to remember bravery of war veterans
PAGADIAN City--Remembering and honoring the heroism of veterans who fought in the last war is a simple example of how we could all become heroes. Major General Roseller G.

Murillo, the event’s guest of honor and speaker, was represented by BGen. Jacinto Bareng, the assistant division commander. “Simple as it may seem but the memory of their See calls, page 7

SEOUL, South Korea – In this city of 25 million people, city buses are the most common means of daily transportation. Buses here are frequent, reliable and probably the most inexpensive way of getting around the metropolis. Seoul's bus network is quite extensive. There are approximately 400 bus routes with 8,500 city buses, connecting the farthest corners of the city. An exclusive lane for buses marked with a blue line painted on the road is enforced on city roads at daytime, which makes it possible to spend less time on bus rides than in private cars. Bus routes are color coded with Green and Blue buses working within city limits and going from subway station to subway station. The green buses have the more local routes, while

the blue one travel a little further out. Red buses are express out to the suburbs, while yellow buses run on circular routes in downtown Seoul for easier access to major shopping and business areas. In addition, each local government gu-office operates smaller buses known as ‘maeul’ or village buses that run from major subway stations into local neighborhoods where other buses don’t go. Bus stops are easily identified by the ‘B’ inside their round shape. The stop signs are color-coded – green for green buses, etc. There is a bus stop outside every subway station. Some stops have benches inside a shelter while others are in the open. Next the bus stop is a list of the buses that stop there as well as a map of the route each bus takes.
The route map is usually in Korean with only a few, if any, stops marked in English. Interestingly, they used to be in English and Korea but that changed with the new bus system in 2004. Some drivers don’t always stop at the scheduled bus stops so you have to watch for them and signal them to stop. These and some others don’t always come to the curb and riders have to walk out into the street to get on them. Also, since bus lanes are in the middle of the road, the bus stop may be on an island rather than on the curb. You can use an interactive bus map to figure out your route in English. You can access this site from Chrome as well as from Explorer. It is a bit slow loading in English, especially from browsers other than Explorer.
Ruffy Magbanua
There are also bus route apps available for smart phones. The interactive bus map can also be accessed through the Visit Seoul website. Once on the site, select the language you prefer, and then click on transit directions at the top of the page. This same system can be used to find subway stations, driving routes and new address information. C odes are available at many Seoul bus stops providing information via smartphones in English, Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Just take a photo of the barcode with See ride, page 11

SENATOR Richard Gordon’s penned blue ribbon committee report on its investigation of the dengue vaccine Dengvaxia could be likened to a motor vehicle accident where there is a suspect but no victim. The Dengvaxia investigation was initiated in the Senate when the vaccine’s manufacturer, French pharma firm Sanofi Pasteur, declared after years of clinical trial in select dengue-
prone countries in the world that it is found not safe for children ages 0-9 and those with no record of being ill with dengue before. The declaration which is required by the World Health Organization for new medicines and vaccines resulted in pandemonium in the country because the vaccine was used in a Department of Health (DOH) massive anti-dengue vaccination program toward the end of the Aquino administration and continued by the Duterte administration. The program was stopped only after the Sanofi Pasteur declaration. Inoculated with
LITTLE VOICES:
Dengvaxia per DOH records were some 830,000 school children and adults in select area in the country, notably the National Capital Region, Cebu, Nueva Ecija, Bulacan and Pampanga. Like any other vaccines such as the anti-flu, Dengvaxia was scientifically discovered not fit for all. It’s effective only to those who are 9 years old and above with prior history of being sick with dengue. But because the Sanofi Pasteur declaration was subject to any Tom, Dick and Harry’s interpretation hysteria set in especially among those inoculated with the vaccine. No amount
of explanation from health experts that there was no need to panic, varying signals and ignorant and uneducated narratives filled the air. The Senate came into the picture. Sadly, its investigation spent more time on the processes involved in the purchase, who were involved in the purchase and how much was the total purchase of the newlydiscovered dengue vaccine. Little discussion during the investigation was spent on whether Dengvaxia was harmful or useful and effective. In fact, during See DENGVAXIA, page 7

Labor arbiters in Gensan must publicly account for their decisions
GENERAL Santos City--The call for public accountability of labor arbiters assigned in this southernmost corridor of Mindanao is a compelling public need because of their alleged collusion with companies. In consonance with the doctrine that public office is a public trust, labor arbiters are obliged to publicly explain why, in future-defining cases, our lowly workers are always losing in their salas, but are always winning in the Supreme Court. For instance, in Purefoods vs. NLRC, G.R. No. 122653, dated December 12, 1997 and in Joaquin T. Lu vs. Tirso Enopia, et al., G.R. No. 197899, dated March 6, 2017, the workers miserably lost in the salas of the two labor arbiters in General Santos City but the
workers eventually won in the Supreme Court after 10 years in the case of Purefoods and after 20 years in the case of Joaquin T. Lu. Of late, the case filed by the Citra Mina Workers’ Union (CMWU) against the Citra Mina management was again dismissed by the labor arbiter in GenSan. The 179 workers claimed they were dismissed without any just cause and allegedly in blatant violation of the required twin-notice rule: a notice to apprise the employee of the ground for which his dismissal is sought and a notice informing the employee of his dismissal, issued to him after being given reasonable opportunity to be heard. We will not be surprised if the Supreme Court will, again, smash such a deci-
sion on the face of the labor arbiter here. Purefoods and Joaquin T. Lu were landmark cases because for the first time, the Supreme Court laid down rulings that fish canning factory workers and fishers on board commercial fishing vessels are, by contemplation of law, regular employees because they are performing necessary and desirable works. What makes these cases more interesting is not only because they are landmark cases, but also because they arose from labor-management conflicts within the fishing industry in General Santos City where Sentro and Citra Mina workers are pitted against the fishing industry and Joaquin T. Lu. At present, various labor movements, includ-
ing Sentro, are continually advocating for an end to contractualization and endof-contract scheme or endo. For me, such an advocacy is quite off-tangent, if not unnecessary. The prevailing laws and jurisprudence had struck down contractuazation and endo as plainly illegal and against public policy long time ago. Laws and jurisprudence have already defined so clearly the rights of the workers. The remaining area is the incapacity of the workers in enforcing such rights under our present adjective laws. It is in this area where employers are holding their devil workshops with impunity. The legal doctrines laid down in Purefoods are unassuming. See labor, page 11

samples of banned cosmetic products from Mansion Chinese Drug Store, department store of Wisons Shopping Center, several cosmetic wholesale and product retail outlets within and around DCLA Place and Beauty Icon, located along San Pedro St. Using a device called X-Ray Fluorescence or XRF spectrometer, she said they were able to quantify the amount of mercury and other chemicals contained in the products. The illegal products found were Yu Dan Tang Specific Eliminating Freckle Spot, Double Whitening Sun Block Cream with Ginseng, Green Cucumber with 43,700 ppm of mercury; Goree Beauty Cream with 17,800 ppm; Jiaoli 10 Days Eliminating Freckle Day & Night Set with 2,638 ppm; S’Zitang 10 Days Eliminating Freckle Day & Night Set with 2,537 ppm; Jiaoli 7 Days Specific Eliminating Freckle AB Set with 2,482 ppm; S’Zitang 7 Days Specific Eliminating Freckle AB Set with 2,277 ppm; and Jiaoli Miraculous Cream with 2,041 ppm. “The proscribed items, to our shock and disbelief, are openly displayed and sold in some establishments like any typical personal care and cosmetic articles,” Sison said. She said these whitening cosmetics are banned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) due to high mercury content. She cited that selling those products violates Republic Act 9711 or Food and Drug Administration Act and RA 7394 or the Consumer Act of the Philippines. Mercury is added to products as a whitening agent to inhibit the production of melanin pigment giving the skin a fairer complexion, she said. But Sison warned that mercury can damage “the nervous, immune and renal systems, and also causes skin discoloration, rashes, and scarring, as well as reduce dermal resistance to bacterial and fungal
infections” and may also pollute environment, contaminating the food supply.” Citing the World Health Organization, Sison said that once mercur y enters the environment, it becomes methylated and enters the food-chain as the highly toxic methylmercury in fish, posing risks to pregnant women who consume the fish and their babies who will suffer neurodevelopmental deficits later on. The group recommended to the city government to conduct a sustained monitoring and law enforcement activities involving the city’s health, police and business inspectors, and in coordination with FDA 11. It also recommended suing and penalizing erring wholesale and retail outlets, including revoking the business permits of defiant establishments; raising public awareness about specific skin whitening products containing mercury and the risks associated with mercury exposure; and passing an ordinance banning the importation, distribution, sale and use of mercury-containing cosmetics.

will take three to five years,” the senator emphasized. He said that if he had it his way, he would recommend to Task Force Bangon Marawi for the government to roll P500,000 to each displaced family so they would reconstruct their devastated homes once the military has cleared all ordnances and dangerous debris in the area. Ejercito, who is chair of the Senate committee on urban planning, said this even as he is pushing anew for the creation of a Department of Housing to merge all housing agencies of the government for proper coordination of their projects. “What is happening now is that NHA has its own projects, HUDCC has its own projects, HLURB has its own schemes. All their projects need to be coor-

Ejercito was likewise reacting to reports of complaints from residents of National Housing Authority (NHA)-constructed shelters in Sendong-hit Iligan and in the formerly besieged Zamboanga City that their dwellings were allegedly constructed in a substandard manner. “We wi l l lo ok into the matter closely. I will personally inspect the NHA-constructed homes in Yolanda-hit Ormoc to check on their sturdiness. This is not something that we can afford overlooking to,” Ejercito said.

acts of courage and gallantry ensures that their legacy, the meaning of freedom we all enjoy today will not be forgotten,” Murillo stated. This year’s 76th observance of Araw ng Kagitingan which carries the theme, “Kagitingan at Pagmamahal sa Pilipinas Para sa Tunay na Pagbabago” shows how Filipinos can help the country in achieving a meaningful change for the improvement of everyone, prevent the threats of terrorism and promote peace in Western Mindanao, he added. Murillo said the 1st Infantry division joins the Armed Force of the Philippines (AFP) in offering snappy salute to the war veterans and the modern heroes as well. “Words are not enough to pay tribute to these gallant men and women for their great contributions in those critical times where our sovereignty and freedom were at risks,” he said. He urged that as the nation celebrates and recognizes war veterans, the Filipino people are to promote, preserve and memorialize the principles, ideals and deeds of the veterans as a means to enhance patriotism and love of country especially among the youth. To be a hero, one does not need to die. “A true hero is one who loves his country, and proud of the
nation’s strengths, weaknesses and imperfections,” he added. A brief yet solemn ceremony was held to honor the bravery of the heroes with Mayor Romeo P. Pulmones and Bareng leading a wreath-laying at the Veterans’ Marker. It was followed by the flag raising ceremony which was attended by provincial, city hall employees, national government agencies, Veterans Federation of the Philippines and civic organizations.

Dengvaxia... from page 4
interview after he made public Tuesday the blue ribbon committee’s report, Gordon admitted his committee did not find any conclusive evidence to show Dengvaxia is harmful. And the report did not say so either. The investigation was conducted to look into Dengvaxia’s effectiveness as a dengue vaccine. The
hysteria and panic zeroed in on the vaccine itself since it was pictured to be harmful. The Public Attorney’s Office (PAO) is even painting Dengvaxia as the culprit or cause of the deaths of those inoculated with it who recently died. But the PAO up to this date have not conclusively linked Dengvaxia to those deaths. However, the special body of experts from the University of the Philippines-Philippine General Hospital tasked with probing those deaths allegedly caused by Dengvaxia are still not making such connection even just a hint. Who is out to su f fer here? The people, of course. Just think of this. Of the 830,000 inoculated with Dengvaxia experts say
7
only 10 percent of them can be considered subject of the Sanofi Pasteur post clinical trial declaration. And of the 83,000 only .2 percent, 166, need special attention by the DOH, me an i ng , shou l d t he y catch fever, they should immediately be brought to the hospital. It does not mean, however, that if the 166 catch fever they will immediately die. Far from that. They just need special attention. But think of the 797,000 Filipinos who have benefited from the anti-dengue vaccine. Here Gordon was not concerned for his was to pin down only those who he said as an aside made money out of the program. (jelbacon@ yahoo.com; jelbaconii@ gmail.com)

Tribute to Parents and Baccalaureate 2017 - 2018 By Annie Lou E. Torres – Teacher -1 San Miguel ES Kindergarten Teacher
San Miguel Elementary School had its tribute to parents and baccalaureate last April 1, 2018. This was attended by the graduating pupils, parents, teachers and lay ministers. Two of the graduating pupils had their confessions. One of them had a very sad experiences, their hard works in raising and sending their children to school. Dr. Maricel O .Alfeche, RGC. had her testimony. She shared her experiences, hard works, trials she’d been through just to reach her ambition. She encourages the graduating pupils
to strive harder in order to achieve their ambitions in life. She motivated everybody by making herself an example. She shared to everybody her achievements in life by finishing her mastered degree and becoming a Registered Guidance Counselor last august 2016. She also graduated her Doctoral Degree last December 2017. I knew everybody was motivated and I won’t be surprised in the near future, one of graduates of SMES class 2018 will be like her too.

Sharp collaborated with Qualimed and CRL Laboratory, a DENR accredited Air Monitoring and Testing service provider to head starts their mission in providing quality air. Aside from hospital and other facilities, Sharp Special Projects and Business Development Manager Mr. Ireneo Lontoc shared during the launch that their company already catered their air purifying technology in airports. “In the Philippines, kung pupunta po kayo ng abroad, you could pass by the Mabuhay lounge. Actually, we have already installations in their canteens and smoking sections. Definitely an air purifier has beneficial effects in the smoking areas,” Mr. Lontoc said. “Even in the car, we have car ion generator. It can deactivate all the odors, even the food smells. The need of plasmacluster is whenever there is air contamination particularly.” he added. With Qualimed as their hospital partner, Sharp aims to set the goal to help produce quality air through their newest technology Plasmacluster Ion (PCI) Technology. It is a unique air purifying technology developed by Sharp. It strongly supplies comprehensive protection against airborne threats in a safe and chemical-free way. This is highly recommended for people suffering from asthma and allergic rhinitis. At the latter part of the event, Sharp held a raffle draw for all the guests and gave away their Plasmacluster Ion Technology. Qualimed’s Dr. Jose Tecson and COO Atty.
Vanguardia led the hospital tour to showcase the high-tech facilities and the installed PIC technologies.

Voters in Marawi’s 96 brgys wait as nation prepares for village polls By Carolyn O. Arguillas MindaNews
AS the nation prepares for the filing of certificates of candidacy on April 14 to 20 for the May 14 election of barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan officials, voters in Marawi’s 96 barangays will have to wait for when it is feasible to hold elections in a city still trying to recover from the destruction and displacement wrought by the five-month siege last year. In Mindanao, which is presently under martial law, the Commission on Elections’ (Comelec) Minute Resolution 18-0085 on January 31, 2018 said elections will proceed as scheduled in all six regions “with the exception of Marawi City, the rehabilitation of which is ongoing,” The Resolution also directed the election and Barangay Affairs Department to “conduct a physical/ocular/structural integrity study or assessment of the polling precincts in Marawi City and recommend whether or not to conduct election therein three months after the scheduled May 14, 2018 BSKE elections.” Comelec spokesperson James Jimenez told MindaNews that a reassessment of the prevailing conditions in Marawi will be undertaken three months after the May 2018 polls. Meanwhile, he said, incumbent barangay officials

will continue to serve on holdover capacity. Out of 96 barangays in Marawi City, 24 barangays comprise the 250-hectare Ground Zero, the main battle area between government forces and the ISISinspired Maute Group and its allies, and the object of daily air strikes during the five-month siege. It is now referred to as the Most Affected Area or MAA. The war rendered the residential and commercial structures there uninhabitable and residents there have not been allowed to return to their villages except for three days per sector from April 1 to May 10 through the “Kambisita sa MAA” (Visit MAA) initiative of Task Force Bangon Marawi (TFBM) and the City Government of Marawi. Housing Secretary Eduardo del Rosario, TFBM chair, told MindaNews
last Friday that Ground Zero residents can return to their villages to rebuild their homes “most likely first quarter 2020” after the debris clearing and site development. Ghost villages With the territory of the 24 barangays rendered off limits to residents until “most likely first quarter 2020,” what will happen to its dispersed residents? Who will represent them? Will the officials of the 24 barangays also serve on holdover capacity even if their barangays are practically “ghost villages”?, MindaNews asked. Jimenez replied: “As far as the Comelec and election concerns are involved, holdover ang turing sa kanila (they are considered on holdover). With regard to their official functions — i.e., what they’re expected to do with no constituents
cannot be considered to be of equal footing. The Supreme Court, in striking as illegal the end-of-contract scheme or endo, was too emphatic when it declared: “Cannery workers are never on equal terms with their employers. Almost always, they agree to any terms of an employment contract just to get employed considering that it is difficult to find work given their ordinary qualifications. Their freedom
to contract is empty and hollow because theirs is the freedom to starve if they refuse to work as casual or contractual workers.” On the other hand, in Joaquin T. Lu vs. Tirso Enopia, et al., G.R. No. 197899, the Supreme Court ruled that fishing workers on board commercial vessels are considered regular employees also for the reason that they perform necessary and desirable works.

Kambisita allows Ground Zero residents to visit their homes – or what remains of them – for three days from April 1 to May 10. But they will be able to return and rebuild their homes only on the first quarter of 2020. MindaNews photo by Froilan Gallardo
to speak of — that’s a matter falling within the jurisdiction of the DILG (Department of Interior and Local Government),” he said. Mi nd a Ne w s s ou g ht DILG Secretary Eduardo Ano for comment but he has yet to send his reply. Under the Local Government Code, a barangay must have a “contiguous territory” and a “population of at least 2,000” as certified by the National Statistics Office except in cities and municipalities in Metro Manila and other metropolitan political subdivisions or in highly urbanized cities which require a certified population of at least 5,000. The 24 barangays in Ground Zero are Banggolo Poblacion, Bubonga Lilod Madaya, Daguduban, Dansalan, Datu Naga, Datu sa Dansalan, Kapantaran, Lilod Madaya (Poblacion), Lumbac Marinaut, Lumbaca Madaya (Poblacion), Marinaut East, Marinaut West, Moncado Colony, Mon c a d o Ka d i l i n g a n , Norhaya Village, R aya Madaya 1, Raya Madaya 2, Sabala Manao, Sabala Manao Proper, Tolali, Tuca Marinaut, Wawalayan Marinaut, Sangcay Dansalan, South Madaya Proper.

only residential but also a commercial district as well. Remained, Returned, Still dispersed According to the Philippine Statistics Authority, Marawi City’s population as of the 2015 census was 201,785. The daytime population, however, is much higher as Marawi City is the center of trade and commerce in Lanao del Sur. The Department of Social Welfare and Development reported a total of 78,466 families or 359,680 persons displaced from Marawi and neighboring towns due to the armed conflict. Displaced Marawi residents fled the city and sought refuge in at least nine regions in the country, most of them in neighboring towns and cities in Northern Mindanao and the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao while the rest fled to other parts of Mindanao, Visayas and even in Metro Manila. Not all have returned home. Not all still have homes to return to. In his Powerpoint presentation before the Malacanang Press Corps on April 6, Del Rosario presented a slide showing that a total of 52,178 families or 181,873 individuals have been monitored to have
remained in the 20 villages that did not evacuate and in 52 of 76 villages where residents have returned after fleeing the war last year. The population of the 24 villages that constitute Ground Zero, however, remains dispersed. The slide also showed that residents in 20 barangays — 6,901 families or 45,442 individuals — did not leave the city during the five-month siege; 38,699 families or 103,541 individuals who fled the war have returned to 48 barangays while 6,578 families or 32,890 individuals, representing 72% have returned to four other barangays. Del Rosario said the timeline for the debris clearing and site development in the 24 barangays comprising Ground Zero is “about 18 months” from June 7, the target date for groundbreaking. “We will only allow (residents to rebuild) once the developer is through with their site development in providing the utilities, then the individual private owners of lots can apply for a building permit from the city government,” del Rosario said. Eighteen months from June 2018 is December 2019. (Carolyn O. Arguillas / MindaNews)

works of commercial fishers are necessary and desirable, the Supreme Court simply stated that “the fishing business cannot possibly exist, let alone flourish without the fishermen crew of fishing vessels who actually understood the fishing activities in the high seas and that without their services the companies deepsea fishing industry would have not come to existence, much less fruition.” In striking down ca-
sualization, endo and the sacada in the high seas, the Supreme Court simply applied the provision of Article 280 of the Labor Code (on regular and casual employment), which seems like a forbidden domain for the labor arbiters here. Workers say they can think of only two reasons why they are losing their cases in the salas of labor arbiters in GenSan but are winning in the Supreme Court: either the arbiters
here do not know the law or they are paid to make wrong decisions. Unless the labor arbiters in GenSan publicly account for their decisions, the logic pendulum will always sway towards the number 2 reason. [MindaViews is the opinion section of MindaNews.
