CAGAYAN de Oro City-Local police has stepped security measures here following confirmed reports of alleged sightings of armed
New People’s Army (NPA) on the outskirts of Cagayan De Oro City, the police regional command said. Chief Insp. Mardy Hortillosa, spokesperson of the Cagayan De Oro Police, said that the NPA rebels

were reportedly sighted in Tumpagon and San Simon, all outskirt villages in the borders of Cagayan De Oro City and the municipal town of Opol, west of Misamis Oriental. He said that the local
police has been on high alert since the siege of Marawi more than two months ago in anticipation of possible armed men who would try to sow terror in this trading hub of Northern Mindanao. Hortillosa said that the
local police in coordination with the military has immediately sent patrol troops to the boundaries of Cagayan De Oro City as report of the presence of heavily armed NPAs resulted in the mass evacuation of more than 500
MARAWI City––Evacuees taking shelter at the Lanao del Sur provincial capitol were surprised when they caught a whiff of that all-too-familiar smell of freshly cooked hotcake wafting around the compound. “In Marawi, our version of pan de sal is hotcake or ‘apang’ in Merenao,” said a trader and evacuee, who only asked to be identified as Maharlika. The 34-year-old Maharlika was working as an administrative officer in an Islamic school before the crisis forced her family to seek refuge at the provincial capitol. “I decided to establish a makeshift store inside the evacuation camp. I just miss eating ‘apang’ in the morning, and since no one is selling it, I decided to include it in my store,” she said. Among those who lined up to buy ‘apang’ was Salam Mustapha, who remembered the hotcakes that his mom would make every morning. “I bought 50 pieces immediately. The smell alone reminds me of waking up to a peaceful morning in A craftsman is swarmed by customers as he works in his booth during the Caraga AgriTrade and Marketing (CARAT) Expo 2017 at the Robinson’s Place Butuan.

MSU main campus in Marawi prepares for Aug. 22 opening By CAROLYN O. ARGUILLAS, MindaNews
MARAWI City — Amid the sound — and sight — of air strikes against the Maute Group and its allies in the main battle area in downtown Marawi, students flocked to the Mindanao State University’s (MSU) main campus here on Friday, the last day of the extended enrolment period, as officials prepare for the opening of schoolyear 2017-2018 on August 22. Before the war between government forces and the Maute Group started on May 23, the first semester in this 56-year old university was supposed to begin on August 7. The war entered Day 81 on Friday with students stopping at the golf course near the university library from where one can see OV-10 planes dropping bombs on the main battle
area five kilometers away. MSU President Dr. Habib Macaayong told MindaNews on August 5 that they were extending enrolment for another week and expect to open by August 14. But Lt. Gen. Carlito Galvez, chief of the Western Mindanao Command told MindaNews August 14 would be too soon, citing security threats that they need to address. He said August 22 would be more feasible (August 21, a Monday, is Ninoy Aquino Day, a special non-working holiday). Galvez on Friday told MindaNews classes in MSU will begin on August 22. Officials from the university and the government’s security sector met on Monday to discuss se-

the MSU’s Board Regents appealed to university and military officials present during the conference last Monday to use a holistic approach since there are people living within the school compound who are neither school staff nor students. Adiong cited the need to consult and involve other members of the MSU community so that they know the problem and can take part in the solution. At the end of the meeting, the officials agreed to craft a security plan involving everyone who has a stake over the MSU operations. MSU, Adiong told MindaNews, is “a part of our lives. If you lockdown MSU, you might as well drain the lake. If Lake Lanao is the source of our identity, MSU gives meaning to our lives.” MSU, according to its website, has a peace building mandate, “with most of its campuses located in conflict- affected areas in Mindanao.” The entire MSU system– composed of the main campus here, MSU-IIT in Iligan, MSU-Tawi-Tawi College of Technology and Oceanography in Bongao, Tawi-tawi; in Naawan, Misamis Oriental, General Santos City, Dinaig in Maguindanao, and Buug in Zamboanga Sibugay and its three satellite campuses in Lanao del Norte — had 78,000 students as of schoolyear 2016
curity preparations. A press release from the WestMincom’s Command Public Information Office quoted Galvez as saying that opening the university given the still ongoing challenges posed by terrorist groups in the downtown area is a challenge, “but we have to test the waters and come up with means to bring back the life of Marawi through the opening of this revered institution.” “The Mindanao State University is the symbol and life of Marawi City. This is the bastion of knowledge and we will have to open classes the soonest,” he said. A “Brigada Eskwela” or campus clean up drive involving MSU constituents, representatives of the local government and the Armed Forces of the Philippines and Philippine National Police will be held next week in preparation for the school opening, Col. Romeo Brawner, Deputy Commander of the Joint Task Group Ranao told MindaNews on Friday. 7,523 confirmed The MSU main campus during the last schoolyear had a student population of 17,000, Macaayong told MindaNews in an interview early last month. College student population last semester was 12,000, according to Dr. Alma Berowa, VP for Aca-
demic Affairs of the MSU System. Of this number, 2,210 graduated last month. “With no freshmen and sophomores coming in as new students due to K to 12, that leaves us with around 10,000. If we will reach 80 percent (enrolees), that would be amazing,” she told MindaNews. MSU alumni have been actively campaigning for students to return to the main campus, even offering free tee-shirts, initially for the first 100, increasing it later to the first 300 enrolees. Ronald Silvosa, Information Technology Officer and head of the Information Systems Department of the College of Information and Technology told MindaNews that as of 5 p.m. Friday, they had a total of 8,697 enrolees, 7,523 of whom have confirmed. The remaining 1,174 students “enroled or were enroled by their respective department academic adviser during the enrolment period which began last July 31 in three venues, namely online or via the internet using their student account, MSU main campus in Marawi and the College of Medicine at Pala-o in Iligan City.” ARMM Assemblyman Zia Alonto Adiong, spokesperson of the Provincial Crisis Management Committee and a member of

– 2017, said Macaayong. MSU campuses, the website said, “are expected to compete with MILF (Moro Islamic Liberation Front), MNLF (Moro National Liberation Front) and ASG (Abu Sayyaf Group) camps in attracting young Muslims.” The university, it added, is “an affirmative action policy instrument for the multiculturalist integration of the Muslims and other cultural minorities into the mainstream of national life.” From University of Mindanao to MSU MSU was established on September 1, 1961. The law creating it was amended several times. Passed in 1955, RA 1387 created the University of Mindanao in what was then refered to as Dansalan City. In 1957, the law was amended by RA 1893 to include a preamble that there is a need to accelerate the program of education “among the peoples of the south, particularly the Muslims and other cultural minorities.” It said a more extensive professional and technical training and instruction in Literature, Philosophy, Sciences and Arts, “particularly the Native Culture, Literature, Philosophy and Sciences and a more extensive research of the above, especially those relating to Filipino Culture, Literature, Philosophy, Sciences and Arts, become necessary to implement the policy of the Government in its desire to integrate the National Minorities into our body politic.” Its original name under RA 1387 was University of Mindanao but this was renamed by RA 3791 in 1963 to Mindanao State University (MSU). It is not clear why the name was changed. On December 21, 1966, three years after RA 3791 was passed renaming the university to MSU, the Mindanao Colleges, a private non-sectarian school which was established in July 1946, with main campus in Davao City, was given its charter as the University of Mindanao, Inc.

BAYUGAN City—Department of Trade and Industry Caraga Regional Brielgo O. Pagaran hopes the launching of the Kapatid Mentor Me (KMMe) program here over the weekend would help achieve Caraga’s P200 billion Gross Regional Domestic
Product (GRDP) potential in the next five years. In his message during the said launch held at the city’s Lope A. Asis gym, Pagaran said that in 2014, Caraga has already reached P97 billion and he hopes the KMMe will also be able “to bring down the poverty incidence from 30% to hopefully below 20% from now until 2022.”
Pagaran also expressed his belief that “the key to Caraga region’s development and progress is the development of Agusan del Sur” so that he encouraged everyone to strive hard. Meanwhile, Sangguniang Panlalawigan member Susan G. Gerona, who represented Gov. Adolph Edward Plaza, in her message urged the entrepreneur-
participants to put passion, interest, love, and faith in their business ventures to attain success. Hardwork should replace laziness , she stressed. Gerona also told the participants to “get out of the box, be innovative, and make their business unique “. Be a blessing to others that they may be able to uplift their lives,” she added.
Agusan del Sur Chamber of Commerce and Industry Foundation, Inc. President Engr. Freddie Mero, who is the manager of Development Bank of the Philippines- San Francisco Branch, told the participants, in his closing remarks, that a “successful business is measured by the owner’s income, the ability to employ See GROWTH, page 11

North Korea resurrects its desperate history
For Kim Jong Un, the North Korea strongman, his pandering and his threat of nuclear attack against the US and its allies could be just a kind of mockery. Perhaps, Kim was just sending a strong message to the US that North Korea has now the capability to launch a nuclear strike anywhere in the world. And, Kim believes the US would not react, but remain passive. Kim is wrong. He never realized that the US hates bullying. Besides, the US is always willing to defend its interest at all costs. Obviously, the “lock and loaded” reaction of US President Donald Trump against North Korea’s braggadocio

is a no laughing matter. If Kim believes, the US would not strike with “fire and fury” he is wrong. However, one might asks why in hell is Kim acting like a modern megalomaniac? A grandson of Kim Il Sung, an appointed communist leader of North Korea, by Stalin of the then communist Russia, the younger Kim has the aggression blood running in his vein. In fact, a simple understanding of Korea’s history circa 1940s would lead us to believe that it was Kim’s grandfather Kim Il Sung who divided the Korean Peninsula and its people. Before 1945, in 1919 an undivided Korean Peninsula
was under the control of Japan. It was the despotic rule of Japan that leads to an uprising of the Korean people against Japan. \The Korean uprising has divided the players into the communist and the rightist, each faction fighting as to who would lead Korea. It was at that time that Kim Il Sung, a Russian trained communist recruit, led a low level guerilla warfare against the Japanese in Korea. However, the Soviet Union attacked Manchuria and decimated the Japanese before marching to Korea. Manchuria [Guandong] was part of the Northeast territory of China controlled by the Japanese in the 1940s.
Cris Diaz, CSP
US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt suggested that Korea be place under an international “trusteeship” at that time, which led to the Tehran Convention in 1943. The convention allowed the adoption of the “international trusteeship” of the Korean Peninsula before an independence is granted. The Tehran Convention in 1943 led to the establishment of the 38th parallel or the “Demilitarized Zone” that divide Korea into North and South Korea. Under See history, page 11

Even a first year law student would know that, under our Constitution, it is Congress, or the legislative department, which exercises the power to make, alter, and repeal laws. As a department under the executive branch, the DENR has no power or authority to issue regulations that contravene or amend existing laws. Nevertheless, that is what the previous dispensation at the DENR tried to do. The President himself has sought to clarify his position on mining. Last week, he called represen-
tatives of various mining companies to Malacanang and acknowledged that, since there is a law allowing mining, “who am I to stop it?”. He, however, reminded mining companies to follow the law and to protect the environment. He also admonished them to plant trees. Interestingly, mining companies are among the most active tree planters in the country as they are required to have an Environmental Protection and Enhancement Program which includes not only plans relative to their mining operations, but also to rehabilitation, regeneration, revegetation and reforestation of mineralized areas, slope stabilization

Preaching and saving souls: the work of AND KNK Christians
LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… In (Jesus) we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins…. if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin…” (Ephesians 1:7, 1 John 1:7, the Holy Bible). -ooo“KADUGO” IS BEING ONE WITH JESUS IN HIS FLESH, BLOOD, AND SPIRIT: Members of the Anak ng Diyos Kadugo Ni Kristo (AND KNK, or the Children of God Blood Kin of the Christ) Church do not call each other “brother” or “sister”, but “blood kin” or “blood relative”. I couldn’t find a word in English for “blood kin” or “blood rela-
tive”, but there is an interesting word in Filipino which denotes a “blood kin” or a “blood relative.” This Filipino word is “Kadugo”. Among themselves, AND KNK members call each other “Kadugo” and, aside from the sheer novelty of being called “Kadugo”, it is impressed upon them that this Filipino word has a much deeper meaning in their spirituality. Principally, it denotes their being one with Jesus, our God and Savior, in His blood, flesh, and spirit. How did this happen? It is a consequence of their having accepted and received Him, and of their believing in Him as God and Savior, and as God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-oooAND KNK CHURCH MEMBERS ARE EQUALS: Now, because AND KNK members are one in blood, flesh, and spirit with Jesus, it is the doctrine among them, based on numerous verses in the Bible, that although they are now many, both here and abroad by the grace of God, they are in fact only one, and are united with each other in their blood, flesh and spirit. B ecause AND KNK members are one with their fellow members though they are many, each one of them is considered equal with each other in their standing in the AND KNK church. There is no one in the AND KNK that is greater or lower than the other

member. They are equals in all respect, no matter how rich or poor they maybe, or what educational attainment or political positions they may have acquired. The faith is that, they are equals in all respect because only one God---Jesus, their God and Savior---called them to become AND KNK members. They believe that the source of their faith as AND KNK members---that Jesus is God and Savior, and is God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit---came from Jesus Himself, for a purpose He designed even before creation.

Proposal for creation of technical experts advisory group up for study CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – As the city sets to prepare long-term plans, the proposal for the creation of a Technical Experts Advisory Group to provide sectoral advisory assistance on planning and development to the city government of Cagayan de Oro is now being studied. The 18th City Council headed by Vice Mayor Raineir Joaquin V. Uy, through the committee on planning and development chaired by Councilor Ian Mark Nacaya tasked the City Planning and Development Office (CPDO) to come up with a proposal on the composition and functions of the said advisory group.

VICE GOVERNOR JOEY G. PELAEZ’S OPPOSITION TO CHED’S ORDER TO CLOSE BSU-ESCs REACHES CONGRESS - Vice Governor Joey Peláez was recently invited by the House of Representatives Committee on Higher and Technical Education during its 10th Regular Meeting as a Resource Person in connection with the Order of the Commission on Higher Education to close the Bukidnon State University-External Studies Centers (BSU-ESCs) operating in the Province of Misamis Oriental and Bukidnon. Vice Governor Pelaez, in his powerpoint presentation during the hearing, claimed that the various ESCs have performed well in national examinations and its graduates have been very employable in many government agencies and private companies, presenting comprehensive statistics on the matter. Vice Governor Pelaez presented his position which strongly opposes the Order of the Commission on Higher Education to close BSU-ESCs which will deprive more than 6,000 poor students in the province. Bereft of any other available tertiary education institutions that are affordable and accessible, it is this country’s moral responsibility to provide even a flicker of hope through education, the Vice Governor stressed.

Suzuki posts 35% y-o-y growth in first half of 2017

eflective of last year’s strong market performance, Suzuki Philippines Inc. (SPH) continues to impress the industry with yet another record-breaking growth. SPH posted strong sales for the first half of the year, achieving a 35 percent year-on-year increase on the back of effective brand-building efforts in numerous platforms, particularly in recent months. Continuous sales growth, successive openings of new dealerships in the country’s key cities and the launch of products designed to cater to different emerging markets – all these contributed to the growth of the company during the first half of 2017. SPH General Manager for Automobile Shuzo Hoshikura expresses his gratitude to the company’s loyal customers, “The milestones we have accomplished over the years, especially that of satisfying the need of Filipinos through our quality and fuelefficient compact cars, indeed bring us joy and fulfillment. This is why we are
constantly innovating so we can continue to deliver more improvements in our products and make Suzuki drivers happy,” he shares. Subcompact sedan Ciaz continues to be a popular choice among Filipinos, with sales growing by more than 400 percent compared with the first half of 2016. The vehicle features a stylish exterior and a powerful motor that make drivers feel a connection with their car. Its fuel efficiency ensures car owners of getting their money’s worth and having a driving experience unlike any other. The Ciaz’s breakthrough sales were complemented by the strong
performance of other Suzuki best-sellers to boost overall sales. The 7-seater Ertiga and 4x4 Jimny models achieved 70 percent and 36 percent sales increase, respectively, over the first half of 2016. SPH further strengthened its presence in the Philippine market with its new 3S openings in Ormoc and Tarlac and several Satellite dealerships in key areas, which includes Bonifacio Global City, SM Consolacion, SM Valenzuela and Kalibo to better support loyal Suzuki customers in these parts of the country. Aside from remaining firm in its commitment to offer
consumer-friendly and fuel-efficient compact cars for Filipinos, SPH is keen to continue growing the Suzuki family. SPH celebrated its growing foothold in the Philippine market with the Suzuki Car Clubs Thanksgiving 2017. The fun-filled event was attended by many of its loyal customers, including 170 key representatives from the Team Suzuki Philippines (TSP) Car Club, which continues to show steadfast support to their beloved car brand. Established in 2015, TSP is a nonprofit organization convened to foster camaraderie and support among Suzuki car clubs. The
group now comprises nine car clubs — Team Alto Pilipinas, Team Celerio Philippines, Swift 1.2 Philippines, Team Swift Philippines, Team APV Philippines, Club Ertiga Philippines and Vitara Club of the Philippines, and the newly accredited Team Ciaz Philippines and Suzuki Jimny Club Philippines. SPH complemented its expansion and community-building efforts with CSR initiatives. The company partnered with Gawad Kalinga (GK) during the first half of the year, donating items to the GK SipaG football program to convey its support for kids engaged in the sport. Together with SPH’s
previous collaboration with GK Smokey Mountain for the AFF Suzuki Cup 2016 and meeting kids from other SipaG teams, this indeed marks a strengthening partnership with Gawad Kalinga. “The successive expansions and continuous product development that we implemented throughout the first half of the year would not have been possible without the support of our patrons and customers. By adopting the Suzuki Way of Life, they continue to inspire us to double our efforts every step of the way,” says Suzuki Philippines Assistant General Manager Cecil Capacete.
Pioneer compact car manufacturer Suzuki Philippines (SPH) inaugurates its newest dealership in the city of Valenzuela. In line with its commitment to further enhance the Filipino way of life and bolstered by its 35 percent year-on-year growth achieved in the first half of 2017, the company is more determined to offer great-value products and improved ser vices by broadening its reach in the countr y’s fast-growing cities.
Situated in a major economic and industrial center characterized by a rising number of industries, Suzuki Auto SM Valenzuela Satellite aims to give existing and potential customers greater access to the company’s lineup of innovative vehicles. This should likewise increase efficiency in addressing the needs of customers in the area. “Through this newest dealership, we are optimistic
of establishing a stronger foothold in Valenzuela City’s growing automotive market. We thank our dealer partners for the trust and support that made this expansion possible. With our common goal of enhancing the Filipino driving experience, we believe we will accomplish many more milestones this year,” says Mr. Shuzo Hoshikura, Suzuki Philippines General Manager for Automobile.

Health cmte tackles IRR of EO 26 CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – The proposed ordinance providing Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Executive Order No. 26, providing for the establishment of smoke-free environments in public and enclosed places and the creation of smoke free task force was thoroughly scrutinized by the City Council committee on health and sanitation and health insurance. The committee, chaired by Councilor Maria Lourdes Gaane, noted that the Tobacco Regulation
Act of 2003 (RA 9211) prohibits smoking in certain public places whether enclosed or outdoors in certain places, prohibits the purchase and sale of cigarettes and other tobacco products to and by minors and in certain places frequented by minors, imposes bans and restrictions on advertising, promotion and sponsorship activities of tobacco companies and local government units to implement these provisions.

that are declared unlawful and prohibited by the ordinance, specifically the selling, distribution, smoking or vaping, or allowing or tolerating the sale of any tobacco products in places such as, among others, centers of young activity such as playschools, preparatory schools,
elementary schools, high schools, colleges and universities, youth hostels and recreational facilities for persons under 18 years old. Councilor Reuben R. Daba, chair of the committee on social services and vice-chair of the committee, proposed that the specific
age provision of 18 years old be removed, as it can cause confusion to the constituents. Others will smoke in the specified areas since they are beyond 18 years old, he cited. For his part, a representative of the Office of Building Official
(OBO) said the office will regulate these areas prior to the application of building permit and will conduct inspection to ensure its compliance. Councilor Gaane said the committee would continue to discuss the matter for final resolution. (JBD/ SP)

review and formulation, among others. The proposed legislation provides that an oversight board shall be chaired by the city mayor, composed of the vice mayor, chair of the City Council committee on planning and environment, city administrator, city budget officer, and private sector representative appointed by the city mayor. The creation of the advisory group was initiated by Councilor Nacaya, noting that there are constraints in development planning due to the lack of technical experts. The councilor sees the need to tap technical experts from different fields to ensure a more responsive evidence-based planning. The advisory group will complement the expertise of the organic planning staff of the city government principally anchored on the CPDO. (SP)
de Oro City, Hortillosa said. Capt. Joe Patrick Martinez, the spokesperson of the army’s 4 th Infantry Division in Camp Evangelista here, said that 150 families in Nangka-on, a hinterland village of Opol, Misamis Oriental, have left their houses and livelihood after 20 alleged NPA armed men swooped down on the village in Aug. 8. Edita Ompok, the barangay chair of Nangka-on, narrated to the military that the community residents cowered in fear when the NPA reportedly started recruiting new members and “demanded food and money from village residents.” The local government unit (LGU) of Opol through the Municipal Risk Reduction Management Council has facilitated the needed support for the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) and prepared the evacuation center of the evacuees. Martinez said that the evacuees in Opol would return to their farm lots only after the military shall have cleared the areas of the NPA rebels. According to Martinez, the military has engaged the reported rebels since state forces were dispatched to four villages in Opol, Misamis Oriental after reports about the sightings of armed NPA rebels in the area.

ambushed them, Martinez said. He said that a joint local police and military were immediately dispatched to track down the suspects. Maj. Gen. Benjamin R. Madrigal, Jr. the 4ID commander described the attack on the innocent civilians by the NPA as condemnable and a gross violation of the international human rights law. He said that the “we condemn in the strongest terms possible this another NPA attack that severely hurt and traumatized not only these two innocent civilians, but the whole community and people in the area.” “The attack on the innocent civilians was an act of terror, which totally disregard the safety of the innocent people,” Madrigal said. In a statement Friday, the NPA in Surigao Del Sur has issued an apology for the mistaken attack and the detonation of the IED against the victims.

Another trader, Norman Panginuma, said managing his store helped him cope with the trauma of the armed conflict. “I temporarily forget the ongoing conflict in our city whenever I’m busy running the store,” he said. “In a way, we are also helping our brothers and sisters to acquire other basic needs that are included in the relief assistance being provided by the government and other aid organizations.” Among the goods being sold in these makeshift stores are processed and fresh vegetables, kitchenware, rubber slippers, hammocks, and laundry implements. Panginuma said they bought their stocks in nearby towns of Lanao del Norte, while other traders sourced their supplies from neighboring Iligan City. A long-time trader, who only identified herself as Aida, said she was able to bring some of her goods to the evacuation camp despite the threat of the invading IS-inspired Maute and Abu Sayyaf groups. She said some traders in Padian, Marawi’s main public market, were not as lucky as the militants ransacked their stalls. “Despite the difficulties, we are trying to make our life normal here,” she said, noting that keeping themselves busy in their stores helps them survive the crisis mentally. Aida said resilience is in the DNA of the Maranao. “We try to rise above every crisis. There is no problem we cannot surmount,” she pointed out. The gun battle in the country’s lone Islamic city has been raging since May 23, triggering a humanitarian crisis. Assemblyman Zia Alonto-Adiong, spokesperson of the Lanao del Sur crisis management committee, said that Maranaos are traditionally known as traders. “They have mastered the art of trading. Being resilient and resourceful are the traits of the Maranao,” he said. According to him, the local government has already drawn up rehabilitation measures, especially establishing a financial window of soft loans to help local traders spur the local economy. “I don’t have the figures, but the economic loss here is tremendous,” he lamented. “That’s why the early recovery package, includes measures on how to assist our local traders and recoup their losses.” (PNA)#salam

gram for them the moment a problem escalates there and we need to repatriate them through OWWA (Overseas Workers Welfare Administration),” he said. He said OWWA has a budget of P1 billion for the repatriation of OFWs, including those in Guam and the Middle East where there is a concentration of migrant Filipino workers. For t he ass ist anc e, OWWA gives P5,000 cash and P10,000 worth of noncash livelihood package for members while nonmembers will be referred to the National Reintegration Center for OFWs for a separate non-cash training and livelihood program. The government provides airport assistance, post repatriation services that include shelter at the OWWA halfway home, psychosocial counseling, stress debriefing, medical referral, provision of transport services or fare for their trip back to their homes. But Bello doubted North Korea’s capacity to launch a missile attack against Guam. Presidential spokesperson Ernesto Abella said in a press briefing on Thursday that the consular office in Agana, Guam has a contingency plan “to enable them to respond to emergencies.” “So in other words, it’s pretty automatic that if there are any threats, especially for those in affected areas, they have contingency plans for those things,” he said.

the agreement, the US would have control over Seoul and the rest of the Korean people. With the division of the Korean Peninsula into North and South, armed skirmishes and violence between the North and South Korean people always occur in the DMZ. The US did not support the South Korean people, but Russia’s Stalin and Mao Tse Tung of China supported the North Korean attacks against the South Koreans. In 1946, the Communist Part of Korea was formed with Kim Il Sung as the appointed Chairman. With the communist movement in place, the Soviets and Communist China purged all non-Communists in North Korea. By that time, the Soviet Union already developed and tested an atomic bomb while China was stocking its war arsenal. With the incessant urging of Kim Il Sung, in September 1946, Stalin has considered an invasion of South Korea. Stalin wants an expansion of communism in East Asia as the Communist Bloc becomes bigger. Back by the Soviet Union and China, Kim Il Sung attacked South Korea in an effort to unite the country under a Communist regime. Stalin and Mao were complacent because the US
did not support the South Korean people in the ensuing border war between the North Koreans then. They were wrong, the US acted swiftly then and repel the attack. The US action was meant to prevent the expansion of the communist movement in Asia. The UN Security Council condemned the attack and urged the North Koreans to withdraw back to the 36th Parallel. Certainly, the punitive action of Kim Il Sung, as a failed aggressor to the South Koreans, has been passed down to his grandson Kim Jong Un. Now, the young Kim should learn the lesson from history: The North Korean would never succeed amid all its war intents and purposes.

“Dirty”Jovie Espenido is reportedly the most sought-after (or “wanted”, depending on one’s point view) police chief nowadays. After the Espinosa and Parojinog episodes, I have monitored news broadcasts where folks - especially in places where drug cases are rampant - are reportedly asking for Espenido’s assignment. But Espenido has already made known his first choice for his next assignment. He wants to be re-assigned to Iloilo City. Interviewed by ANC’s Karen Davila, Espenido bared his plans for Iloilo City. “Kausapin ko muna siya (referring to the city mayor)”. Then, he will take it up from there. Abangan….

it with trees. The aforementioned meeting with the President, though very encouraging to the mining industry, was low-key and hardly reported in the news. The little that has been said in the media were based on statements made by the Senior Deputy Executive Secretary after the meeting. Though the President’s calming statements after a year of tumult appear to have been downplayed, these are nevertheless a welcome development and a reminder to the industry that it must also police itself to ensure that only responsible miners are allowed to operate. RP knocks down China, again! First, it happened in the international court. Just last Wednesday, it happened again – in the hard court. But the second time around was sweeter. The Philippine victor y was clearer, more convincing, and indisputably enforceable. In the opening game of the 2017 FIBA-Asia Cup, Gilas Pilipinas dealt China, FIBA defending champion, a stunning loss. Thanks to the heroics of Gilas standouts Romeo, Standhardinger, Castro, Wright, Pogoy, Almazan and Aguilar. In the first round – when the International Court ruled in favor of the Philippine claim on part of the West Phillippine Sea – the Philippines gained both a legal and moral victory. Yet the victor y has proved empty. How do you enforce the The Hague court’s decision against a powerful nation which threatened war (in President Duterte’s own words) in case we pursue our claim. Even the toughtalking President appeared, at least momentarily, to have backed down. How about it? Daanin na lang natin kaya sa baskeball. Winner take all. Most sought-after police chief
-oooP R E AC H I N G A N D SAVING SOULS: THE WORK OF AND KNK CHRISTIANS: On top of that, equality as AND KNK members gives each of them the same responsibility in fulfilling the very reason why they were called in the first place to become members of the AND KNK, which is to become a part of the work God envisioned to be fulfilled as the world comes to its end. What is this work as the world comes to its end? It is proclaiming the Good News that Jesus is God and Savior, and saving souls on the basis of that Good News. What this means is that, each and every AND KNK member is baptized into the Church---which is the very Church of Jesus in the Philippines---to preach and save, and not to simply sit down during church ceremonies or praise and worship sessions, just like what they used to do. This is the reason why the AND KNK Church endeavors to teach and train all its members--the “Kadugos”---to read the Bible daily, meditate on it day and night, and obey all its commands all the days of their lives, so they could one day go and make all the nations disciples of Jesus, baptizing all men in the Name of Jesus, and teaching everyone everything that Jesus commanded the world to do so they could be saved. -oooWATCH “ANG TANGING DAAN” AT FACEB O OK : “A ng Tang i ng Daan” is a Bible exposition and prayer session for everyone, in English and Filipino, 24/7, worldwide, that can be viewed at www. facebook.com/angtangingdaan.
