Davao City to start ‘family profiling’ to check vaccine status vs COVID-19 D

By ANTONIO L. COLINA IV, MindaNews

AVAO CITY — The Davao City COVID-19 Task Force will conduct a “family profiling” in all 182 barangays here to determine the members of the households who are not yet vaccinated against the infection or have yet to receive their booster shots.

Dr. Michelle Schlosser, spokesperson for COVID-19 Task Force of Davao City, said during “Bida Bakunado” program broadcast over Davao City Disaster Radio (DCDR 87.5) on Friday that the “family profiling” is another strategy of the local government to have a “conversation” with locals who remain apprehensive about getting inoculated.

“This is not mandatory.

Aside from COVID-19 vaccines, she said the data to be gathered will include information on the immunization status to know how many children have yet to receive routine vaccines, including, among others, those vaccines for the prevention of measles, mumps,

CIDG-RFU conducts gift-giving during Women’s Month celebration

C

AGAYAN DE ORO CITY – The The Reg i onal Field Unit of the CIDG in Northern Mindanao has conducted gift-giving during the culmination of Women’s

Month in Jasaan municipality, Misamis Oriental.

In a report sent by Police Colonel Cholijun P. Caduyac to the national headquarters it was learned that sixty pieces

of hygiene kits and 60 pieces of food packs were distributed to the frontliners of the fight against the pandemic in said municipality.

A lecture on breast self-ex-

amination and vaginal discharge was also conducted by Dr. Eugene J. Amortizado, ObstetricianGynecologist, to the women frontliners of Barangays Luz Banzon, Jasaan also in Misamis

Oriental.

This year’s theme of the women’s month celebration carried the theme “We Make Change Work for Women” (Agenda ng Kababaihan Tungo Sa Kaunlaran).

POPCOM improves family COMELEC-10 bares strategies planning accessibility in Normin to ensure orderly 2022 NLE CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY --Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Philippine Commission on Population (POPCOM)-10 remains committed to strengthen its promotion of reproductive health and family planning (FP) services in the region, particularly in its far-flung communities.

POPCOM-10 Regional Director Neil Aldrin Omega said the fertility rate of women in the region is high because of the growing number of women already at their reproductive age who are not practicing family planning. He added that in

2020, the maternal death rate of region 10 grew to 83 deaths per 100,000 live births, due to COVID-19 delaying the delivery of health services in many communities here.

That said, POPCOM-10 has partnered with the Department of Health (DOH)10 and local government units (LGUs) to monitor and strengthen their efforts to provide maternal, neonatal, and child health and nutrition services throughout northern Mindanao, Omega said. He added that through their outreach programs, See POPCOM, page 15

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY --Determined to conduct orderly, safe, honest and fair National and Local Elections 2022, the Commission on Elections (COMELEC)-10 created ways to prevent vote-buying as well as to ensure safety of voters, especially against the spread of COVID-19.

In strengthening campaign against vote-buying,

Fostering nationalism in the ‘new normal’ By: EUNICE KRISTINE B. VALLEDOR Poblacion, Claveria Misamis Oriental

According to Mark Twain, “In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.”

As the Department of Education upholds and lives up one of its core values, the “Maka-bansa”, the Department has always been ardent and eager in instituting measures to better instill in the hearts and minds of learners the value of nationalism and patriotism. Moreover, in a school setting, administrators and teachers are doing their best in monitoring learners who do not attend the Flag Raising ceremony

because of being late and tardiness.

Some have imposed school offenses and sanctions if one is caught being late and not attending the ceremony.

Patriotism, according to Wikipedia is defined as an attachment to the homeland. This attachment can be viewed in terms of different features relating to one’s own homeland, including its ethnic, cultural, political or historical aspects and it encompasses a set of concepts closely related those of nationalism.

And yes, however, patriotism and nationalism is not only shown by attending Flag Raising ceremonies but there is definitely more to it.

Like, we can shoe our love to our country by taking care of its natural resources and the environment, by taking care of and cultivating the Philippine soil with utmost commitment. Like not littering inside the school premises, or simply at all not causing any harm to any Filipino entity.

And as teachers, yes we can do it by setting as a good example first to our learners. Of course, we cannot share what we do not have, that is why, let us first live and promote nationalism and patriotism among ourselves so that we may be able to effectively communicate it as well to our learners and to the community.

COMELEC-10 Regional Elections Director Lawyer Francisco Pobe shared during the CORDS-X Podcast, April 2, that they created the Operation Bantay Baligya sa Balota.

“The COMELEC has created the committee or task force nga maghimo og mga pamaagi og unsaon nato pagsikop aning mga taong either namaligya o nidawat sa mga boto nga gipamaligya, either in cash or in kind para mataral nato kini sila ug mapahamtangan og silot sa ilang gihimo nga mga kalapasan,” he said. (that will create ways to arrest those who are buying votes or those who will sell their votes, either in cash or in kind, so they can be penalized on their violation) During the local campaigns, Pobe said in-house or in-person campaigns are not allowed. Wearing of face masks and proper hand sanitation should also be observed.

“Sa Alert Level 1 ug Level 2 base sa IATF, wala namo’y kinahanglanon nga permiso gikan sa COMELEC so buot

ipasabot mangayo lang mo og permiso gikan sa local government inyong mga permit on the utilization of the venue,” Pobe added.

(Based on the IATF [Inter Agency Task Force], for areas under Alert Level 1 and 2, there is no need to ask permission from the COMELEC for conducting campaigns. They will just need to ask a permit from the local government for the utilization of the venue) For areas under Alert Level 3, 4, and 5, candidates will need the permission from the Local Campaign Committee Center so the latter will be able to regulate the attendance or participants of the campaign to be held.

He added that hand shaking, and taking of ‘selfies’ or photos in close contact with the candidates and voters are also not allowed during the campaign period.

COMELEC-10 is working closely with the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and Department of Health (DOH) to monitor such See ENSURE, page 15

Let us Stop - Agaw Dagat, Agaw Kabuhayan, Agaw Buhay More than fifty fishing families in Molugan, El Salvador City, Misamis Oriental are puzzled no end why the foreshore area of about 3,000 sq. meters where they have been living in the past 40 years since the eighties as fishing community has been titled issued to Ms. Evelyn Roa Clavano. That 3,000sq.meter foreshore which until now is underwater and became only live-able after filling the foreshore area with some 5-ft. stonehigh pavement which they had painstakingly gathered for so many years where they had built their houses, should not carry a land title, perhaps, a “water-title” could be a better description. With the issuance of land title, a case now has been filed against the fishing community in Molugan for eviction. No Sir. That is a great social injustice! A glaring travesty of justice and of the fisherfolk’s human rights!

Landless as they are, they formed themselves into an association called the Molugan Landless Association, a Trade Union Congress Party (TUCP} affiliated organization. As narrated to me by their President, Mr. Hernandez Valmoria, it was in the late seventies when then Gov. Pedro “Oloy” Roa, being a logger himself, made use of the seashore area in Molugan, El Salvador,

as “tambakan ng mga cut logs (i.e., mahogany, narra, almaciga, red lauan, etc.)” before being transported to other countries. Well, am not surprised! Based on my research, a logger like the Roa & Sons Logging Company, would earn as much as 360 million pesos in just one shipment of logs alone, money that had not just been pocketed by the logger alone but those who were supposed to enforce environmental laws knowing that all logging activities then were all illegal. Yes, based on my research, our dipterocarp forests were protected by existing laws, i.e., no logging in areas with a topography of more than one thousand meters above sea level or in slopy areas with more than 50% gradient and there are laws that prohibit the cutting of the finest of trees, i.e, narra, red lauan, almaciga, mahogany, etc. Of the 17 million hectare-dipterocarp forest, only half a million is left, the reason why our country is the 4th hardest hit country in the world by climate change as in just one night of flooding alone, thousands lost their homes or their lives. Our archipelago needs at least 54% forest cover to be unfettered from ecological disaster but only 5% is forestall.

Well, Molugan became that “tambakan ng mga

Orlan R. Ravanera

putol na kahoy!” Thus, that seashore area, after being used as “tambakan,” an application for titling of some 14,000-sq. meters was done by no less than the Roa’s daughter, Ms. Evelyn Roa Clavano. After the issuance of the title, some 11,000 sq.-meter portion was sold to the Union Plywood Corporation (UPC) then bought by Gaisano from UPC where a “Gaisano bodega” now stands, in gross violation of existing laws as such construction inside the seashore being a “public domain” should not be done without permission from the DENR. It is in the remaining 3,000 sq.-meter area is the offshore area where more than 50 families have been occupying as their residents in the past 40 years. Their occupancy was backed-up by a Barangay Resolution, allowing them to occupy the foreshore area as fisherfolk.

As responsible fishing community, no less than the DENR has provided the LGU with a Yacht which the LGU turned-over to the Molugan fishing fisherfolk who are designated as fishery wardens to protect the bay from illegal fishing activities. Protecting the grandeur of Macajalar Bay is their expression of gratitude to the governSee INJUSTICE, page 12

Hints and Traces

Being Christ-like and suffering “Is he (Christ) not the one they are trying to kill? And look, he is speaking openly and they say nothing to him. Could the authorities have realized that he is the Christ?” (Jn 7,25-26) With these words in the gospel of St. John, we are somehow reminded that if we truly want to be like Christ as we should, we have to expect suffering, for which we have to learn to lose the fear of it.

Christ knew from the start of his redemptive life here on earth that he had to suffer and to die for the sins of men. When it was not yet the time to do so, he managed to escape from the hands of those who tried to do him harm. But when the time to consummate his mission on earth came, he made himself totally available for the culminating redemptive act of his passion and death on the cross.

We should try to assume the same mind and spirit with respect to the

ultimate purpose of our life here on earth. We are not meant only to achieve some earthly and temporal success. Our real success is when we managed to be like Christ all the way, that is, when we would be willing to suffer and die for the sins of men in general, ours and those of everybody else.

Thus, we need to learn how to lose the fear of suffering and death. In fact, we have to learn to see suffering and death as the ultimate means of our salvation, of achieving the perfection of our humanity, which is to be like Christ (alter Christus), if not Christ himself (ipse Christus).

If we believe in Christ and follow what he has taught and shown us, we will realize that there is nothing to be afraid of suffering and death, and all the other negative things that can mark our life.

He bore them himself and converted them into our way for our own salvation.

Yes, even death which is the

Roy Cimagala

ultimate evil that can befall us, an evil that is humanly insoluble. With Christ’s death, the curse of death has been removed. “Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” (1 Cor 15,54-55) So, we just have to be sport and cool about the whole reality of suffering and death. What we need to do is to follow Christ in his attitude toward them. For Christ, embracing suffering and ultimately death, is the expression of his greatest love for us. We have to enter into the dynamic of this divine logic and wisdom so we can lose that fear of suffering and death.

Thus, we have to understand this very well. Unless we love the cross, we can never say that we are loving See BEING, page 15

Ayala backs BPI Unibanker Alexis Sy's SEA Games bid M

ANILA -- Few weeks from now, BPI Unibanker and emerging bowling juggernaut Alexis Sy will represent the Philippines in the 31st Southeast Asian Games in Hanoi, Vietnam.

This is the fifth time that the 29-year-old Cebuana waves the Philippine flag before Southeast Asia's finest athletes, after bagging four bronze medals from her winning streaks in previous games.

On Friday, Sy was recognized by Ayala Corporation President & CEO Fernando Zobel de Ayala during the WeAreAyala Business Club Cebu Townhall. "The Ayala group is rooting for Alexis Sy as she represents our country in the upcoming SEA Games in Hanoi," Zobel said. "In our own way, we at Ayala are supporting her bid by providing her the flexibility and financial assistance she needs to train."

According to Sy, Ayala group's hurrah boosts her confidence as she embarks on her first major game since the pandemic. "I'm overwhelmed by everyone's support," she said.

"Everyone--from the top management down to my

colleagues--has been cheering me on consistently."

Love at first strike Sy, who was recruited by the Philippine Sports Commission in 2007, has been playing for the national bowling team for more than half of her life. But just like all serendipitous stories, it was never part of the plan.

"I originally wanted to be a businessman like my dad. I only tried bowling out of curiosity," she said.

"Growing up kasi, our family would spend weekends watching my Lolo, Dad, and Brother play at the bowling alley. One day, out of boredom, the eight-year-old me just decided to try it."

Several strikes later, Sy found her new comfort zone in the bowling alley.

At that time, however, the idea that she would be carrying the Philippine flag in the coming years was still out of sight.

"My first big competition was held in Singapore. We were inside a stadium with so many people watching from the bleachers that I could barely recognize their faces. From where I was standing, I could only see our countrymen waving Philippine flag," she

recalled.

Unfortunately, in the upcoming SEA Games, a familiar figure that used to be her source of comfort would no longer be cheering with the crowd. Last year, Sy lost her father whom she considered her biggest fan.

"My dad had always been my inspiration. He supported me all the way.

I'm sure he would have wanted me to keep going.

So here I am, still playing the game he loved."

Solid support system Outside the bowling alley, Sy is a Marketing Associate at BPI's corporate banking group, where she's been handling big business accounts since 2014.

The proud Unibanker said that while she's doubling down on her training, she does not compromise her work performance.

This, she said, is her way of repaying the company's consistent support to her athletic career.

"I can say that I'm in the right company now," she said. "I have always felt their support for me.

They acknowledge my responsibilities as a national athlete. So I never shortchange them. During the pandemic, habang walang game, I really focused on my role as a Unibanker."

Now with the entire Ayala group behind her, Sy feels much more inspired to take her game¬winning strike and bring honor to

the nation once more.

"This April, I'm moving back to Manila to focus on my training. I'm thankful to Ayala for helping me in this move and for providing me with generous assistance," she said.

"I really feel blessed to be part of an organization that supports my bid to bring honor to our nation," she added, with high hopes that the national bowling team would finally bag the See AYALA, page 14

PhilHealth-10 raises awareness on benefits for women

C

AGAYAN DE ORO CITY--In line with the observance of the National Women’s Month this March, the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) remains committed to the health and wellbeing of Filipino women through the various benefit packages it offers in partnership with accredited and contracted healthcare

providers nationwide.

Citing data from the Philippine Statistics Authority wherein a total of 1,975 or over five maternal deaths per day had been recorded in the country in CY 2020, PhilHealth said this should not be the case if women are given proper care during their pregnancy.

Under its Maternity Care Package, expecting mothers are entitled to essen-

tial health services during antenatal period, labor, normal delivery and immediate post-partum period.

Packages are set at P6,500 and P8,000 if availed of in accredited hospitals, and in infirmaries/dispensaries and birthing homes/maternity clinics, respectively, anywhere in the country.

The state agency requires at least four pre-natal visits during the course of preg-

GSIS reopens Computer Loan until June 30 State pension fund Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) is reopening the Ginhawa for All (GFAL) Computer Loan until June 30, 2022.

“Gusto naming mabigyan ng ginhawa ang ating mga miyembro na hindi nagkaroon ng pagkakataong makapag-avail nito noong nakaraang taon.

Hopefully, the additional three­month application period will give them sufficient time to apply for the loan,” GSIS President and General Manager Rolando Ledesma Macasaet said.

The GFAL Computer Loan is a loan window that grants a P30,000assistance to GSIS members for the purchase of a computer unit for their work-from-home arrangement or their children’s virtual classes.

Under the program, GSIS members may borrow P30,000, payable in three years 6% interest per annum. Members may apply for it online.

“The monthly amortization for the loan is only P983.33 and application may be done online through the newly-launched GSIS Touch mobile app, the GSIS Wireless Automated Processing System

(GWAPS) kiosks, overthe-counter, or through drop boxes in all GSIS branches and extension offices nationwide,” Macasaet added.

Qualified to apply for the loan are active members with permanent appointments who have at least three monthly premium contributions for both personal and government shares; employed in an agency which is not classified as “suspended;” have no pending administrative or criminal case; and are not on leave of absence without pay.

In addition, they should have no GSIS Financial Assistance Loan arrearages; no past due GSIS loan (except housing loan); and have a minimum net takehome pay requirement as provided in the General

Appropriations Act after all required monthly obligations have been deducted.

The proceeds of the loan will be credited to the borrower’s GSIS eCard or Unified Multipurpose Identification (UMID)

card.

The agency authorized officer will approve the loan and submit a monthly feedback report to GSIS to ensure that the loan has actually been used for the purchase of a computer.

Under the GFAL Computer Loan program, GSIS disbursed over P6.9 billion in gross proceeds in 2021, benefitting 230,205 borrowers.

For other details on the program, interested parties may visit the GSIS website (www.gsis.gov.ph), or official Facebook page (@ gsis.ph), email gsiscares@ gsis.gov.ph, or call the GSIS Contact Center at 8847-4747 (if in Metro

Flipped classroom approach By: JILLY-ANN J. ALCARIA T-III Claveria Central School

In this blended learning approach, face-to-face interaction is mixed with independent study–usually via technology. In a common Flipped Classroom scenario, students might watch pre-recorded videos at home, then come to school to do the homework armed with questions and at least some background knowledge.

The concept behind the flipped classroom is to rethink when students have access to the resources they need most. If the problem is that students need help doing the work rather than being introduced to the new thinking behind the work, then the solution the flipped classroom takes is to reverse that pattern.

The Flipped Classroom is a blended learning model in which traditional ideas about classroom activities and homework are reversed, or “flipped.”

In this model, instructors have students interact with new material for home-

work first. They then use class time to discuss the new information and put those ideas into practice.

Fur t her, a f lipp e d classroom (sometimes referred to as an inverted classroom) doesn’t necessarily provide true flipped learning. It’s what happens in the classroom that matters. True flipped learning turns classroom time into a more individualized experience. Instead of an instructor addressing all students as a group, learners move at their own pace or in small groups to apply their knowledge in hands-on ways; this allows for a more differentiated experience overall.

Injustice... from page 4

ment for allowing them to occupy the foreshore area as fisherfolk where they fish daily to provide food for their respective families and their communities.

When the Sangguniang Panlungsod learned that the foreshore areas had been issued a title to a businesswoman, Ms. Evelyn Roa Clavano, the August Body issued a Resolution to cancel such title as such should have not been issued at all, thus, such title was fraudulently issued.

The question is, why was a land title issued? The titling could not be done without the knowledge of the DENR and the said office has denied giving its consent. No less than the Community Environment Officer, Mr. Conrado Mahinay confirmed that no application for titling had been received from the title holder, Ms. Evelyn Roa Clavano. Why was a title issued without DENR’s knowledge and consent? This is now the subject of investigation and verification. If in fact such issuance of a title is without the consent of the DENR, no less than Atty.

Van Michael Pacuribot, the head of the Legal Office in Region 10, has assured the Molugan fishing community that the DENR will write no less than the Solicitor General for the cancellation of the title.

Wow, how amazing, We salute you Atty. Michael Pacuribot for your brilliance and integrity.

In fact, no less than the

Commission of Human Rights is so interested to know why a title has been issued because titling of that foreshore area is a glaring violation of the human rights of the fishing community in Molugan, El Salvador. For more than forty years, the fishing community has been residing in the foreshore area and the fishing families have already gotten some vested right, more than the issuance of a piece of paper called the land title. Never will the fishing families vacate the area because in doing so, they will lost their homes, their livelihood, their food and will be living in hunger and extreme poverty. Thus, AGAW DAGAT, AGAW KABUHAYAN, AGAW BAHAY, AGAW PAGKAIN will lead to AGAW BUHAY. SILA PO AY TAO, HINDI BASURA! Is the enrichment of the rich means the dispossession of the

poor fisherfolk? Never!

Inubos na po ninyo ang kakahuyan sa gubat, pati ba dagat aangkinin pa ninyo?

Tama na po!

Let notice be served to one and all that in this country, no one is above the law; all must bow down to the majesty of the law because we follow the rule of law and not of men.

Again, may we ask? Why was a title issued in a foreshore area that is even under water? Is it the rule of money and influence?

For five long years now, the more than 50 fishing families are appearing in court every now and then to protect their human rights against eviction.

They already have spent so much for their legal defense despite the fact that they can hardly provide food for their malnourished children as the poorest of the poor now are the fishing communities because of the 13 major bays in the

Philippines, 10 are already biologically dead. One of the killers of the bay is the massive siltation that destroyed marine and fishery resources as thousands if not millions of tons of top soil are carried by the rivers to the bay because of the massive denudation of our dipterocarp forest brought about by massive logging done by logging companies, one of which is the Roa & Sons Logging Company. Please pity the poor fishing community in Molugan! Sobra na po ang kanilang paghihirap, dadagdagan pa ng mga kaso laban sa kanila dahil sa paglaban sa kanilang karapatan! Maawa po kayo!

We appeal to the Human Rights Commission to intervene as apparently there is the participation of some State actors in violation of the human rights of the poor and the oppressed fishing community!

Perks of a working mom

By CARLA ANGINEEHL L. FLORES Teacher III Claveria Central School

CHILDREN of working mothers tend to become more independent. Since working moms need to teach kids how to chores on their own, they develop a strong sense of responsibility at an early age. Today, we no longer see a woman as a stay at home mother with stereotyped tasks. In the past, we used to define motherhood that involves lifelong goals of taking care of children and doing household chores alone.

That all changed when people worldwide fought for the freedom we enjoy today. Women now play a vital role to contribute to the economy thus proving that they can compete in the job market.

Still, some believe mothers must be staying home and tend to their children’s needs. However, women of today beg to differ.

Even if they can’t attend to their children full time, working mothers experience various benefits with their living status. Working moms become positive role models. Children must know women must not be just domestic servants. Instead, a woman can be someone who works outside the home and pursue a professional career. This instills in children the idea that a woman’s role can include a thriving career apart from domestic tasks.

Reimagining education in the 21st century By: JILLY-ANN J. ALCARIA T-III Claveria Central School

Education used to be a one-shot game, now it has to be a lifelong g ame. You d on’t ju st get educated once. You need to go in-between learning and work. You have to bring professionals into the classroom to teach. You have to work on projects for real organizations from the beginning, and you have to go out into the environment, into communities. You have to understand the real problems that people are facing so you can shape your learning around those problems rather than just look at a textbook.

We need to completely reimagine education.

Instead of learning to memorize facts and figures, students need to “learn how to learn” and how to solve problems.

And they should be all owe d to l e ar n i nd e pendently. Changes are needed at every level.

You have to infuse things like entrepreneurship into the curriculum because with the disrupt i on t h at’s goi ng on , many people are going to have to create their own jobs.

Moreover, texts regarding this pandemic’s consequences are appearing at an accelerating pace, with constant coverage by news outlets, as well as philosophical, historical, and sociological reflections by public intellectuals worldwide. Ripples from the current emergency h ave spre a d i nto t he p ers ona l, s o ci a l, and economic spheres. But are there continuities as well? Is the pandemic cre at ing a “ne w normal” in education or simply accenting what has already become normal—an accelerati ng te n d e n c y tow ard technologization? This tendenc y presents an important challenge for education, requiring a critical vision of postCovid-19 curriculum.

Significance of early childhood education By: PHILYN PACOT TAGLE T-III Opol Central School Opol, Misamis Oriental Opol West District

Most childhood education specialists claim that young children learn best when they’re not pushed too hard, they have an opportunity to interact with their peers, and their parents and instructors treat them kindly. Likewise, children learn best when instruction and educational activities are only a small portion of their days. This is especially true of children enrolled in pre-school programs since it’s not good for young children to be separated from their parents for extended periods of time.

Children usually do not benefit in programs with inexperienced teachers and large classroom sizes.

Children taught at an early age usually benefit in the following ways: improved social skills, less or no need for special education instruction during subsequent school years, better grades, and enhanced attention spans.

Likewise, some researchers have concluded that young children enrolled in preschool programs usually graduate from high school, attend college, have fewer behavioral problems, and do not become involved

with crime in their adolescent and young adult years.

No matter the differences in opinion about formal pre-kindergarten education, children benefit from receiving some type of education during their early developmental years. However, there is not one-size fits all instruction best suited for all children. While some children benefit immensely from pre-school, it may not be the best educational setting for other children.

In most cases, children benefit most by receiving educational instruction from their parents.

Parents must evaluate a child’s unique personality before determining which program is best suited for a child since not all programs benefit children the same way.

It is widely used for manufacturing various containers, dispensing bottles, wash bottles, tubing, plastic bags for computer components, and various molded laboratory equipment. Its most common use is in plastic bags. z. Plastic Bags - also known as sando bags, pouch, plastic shopping bag and plastic film bags used as Secondary Packaging Material.

Plastic carryout bags with handles, holes, or string usually made from High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Low-Density Polyethylene/ Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE/LLPDE) and Polypropylene (PP) plastic materials. aa. Polystyrene – refers to petroleum-based plastic made from styrene monomer and a lightweight material / foam polystyrene used in food packaging applications such as cups and food boxes / trays, more commonly known as styrofoam / styrophor; bb. Primary Packaging – refers to first level packaging that contains the item sold; cc.

Mon-Tue, April 4-5, 2022

As of Friday, Schlosser said, 1.3 million Dabawenyos have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

The city has a population of 1.78 million as of the May 2020 census.

From March 21 to 27, the Department of Health (DOH)-Davao reported 72 new cases in the region.

She said the average weekly positivity rate of the city has been below 1% for several weeks.

She said low positivity rate will mean economic recovery for the city.

She reminded the public to keep observing health protocols and make sure to get vaccinated as the local government aims to avoid deaths from COVID-19.

She said the data will be used by the barangays to intensify the education campaign of the local government on vaccination.

She said the vaccination drive will be strengthened in the communities after the city noted fewer people availing of the inoculation offered by the local government.

She said the city will maintain the “no mandatory vaccine” policy but the local government will offer it to the people as an “option.”

Since BDH has the only orthopedic specialist in the region, he was treated

by Dr. Jay Asuncion. The surger y went well. The doctor who operated was not paid by PhilHealth.

Another patient, a police officer in training, needed an operation with the same specialization who needed to undergo operation twice. His first operation was covered by PhilHealth, but the second one wasn’t so he had to shell out his money.

He was deprived of his claim for medical benefits for a crucial surgical operation because of the pending case filed by PhilHealth against BDH over alleged fictitious 29 patients have remained unresolved for over a year.

A third patient, who needed special care since he was blind and has diab etes, a ls o s oug ht t he medical assistance of PhilHealth through Dr. Asuncion. The same scenario happened because the poor doctor who provided medical attention to the patient hasn’t been paid by the state insurer.

Another patient has the same sentiments. He under went surger y for broken bones, and spent almost half a million pesos in medicine but has not been reimbursed by Philhealth. As was the usual case as the former, the doctor was not paid

by Philhealth.

In the same light, PhilHealth is bent on suspending the accreditation of hospitals that have a proven track record in g iv i ng pre m i e r he a lt h care including BDH that have specialty medical care only available in the region. The professional fees of the said doctors also have not been paid while the case at the Philhealth Arbitration department is still pending.

Some more undocumented patients were not able to get the medical attent i on t he y ne e d e d through PhilHealth since BDH, which has the credibility of having the specialized treatment from credible doctors in the region, had their accreditation in a way suspended by the national health provider in the country by the case it filed against the hospital.

The patients stated and asked: “Something has to be done to alleviate the pain of suffering patients who need utmost care from specialists. Why is PhilHealth turning a blind eye on this matter? Why can’t PhilHealth provide the necessar y b enef its and access to medicine and medical services?”

Misconceptions about the side effects of family planning methods is one of the reasons why women and their partners are hesitant to consider it, Omega said.

However, he reassured them that POPCOM conducts counseling sessions for married couples and women to explain how these FP methods work and what their advantages and disadvantages are, before they are given or administered.

We have to be wary of our tendency to limit our loving to ways and forms that give us some benefits alone, be it material, moral or spiritual. While they are also a form of love, they are not yet the fullness of love.

Assalamu Alaykum Warahmatullahi Ta’Allah Wabarakatuhu...

We join the entire Muslim Ummah on the occasion of the observance of the Holy Month of Ramadhan.

This Holy Month which marks the month of sacrifice and self-denial among us Muslims, is a timely event in an era of challenge, renewal and reform.

Ramadhan commemorates when the sacred Qur’an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad. At the spotting of the crescent moon, we Muslims honor this revelation by beginning a month of inward reflection, spiritual renewal, and prayer.

Our devotion to perform the essential requisites of Islam, such as the holy fasting, is an inspiring deed that attests to our reverence for the Almighty Allah (SWT). Hence, our steadfastness in our sacrifices during Ramadhan is also by itself an opportunity for enlightenment.

Even in the midst of an ongoing pandemic, we still see this as an opportunity to reflect on the blessings we have been given and to work toward greater fellowship with one another.

Thus, together, in the spirit of Ramadan, we can achieve a more harmonious and respectful community.

We are confident that we will remain united by our common endeavor to attain lasting peace amongst us.

May this auspicious occasion bring peace and prosperity to our dear Datu Salibo and the Bangsamoro, in general.

Ramadhan Kareem!
