MARAWI CITY -- The National Housing Authority turned-over on Thursday (January 17), 550 units of transitory shelters in Barangay Boganga, here, to families who lost their homes during the five-month war between the government forces and the Maute-ISIS terrorist group that started May 23 in 2017. The first batch of beneficiaries, consisting the 206 families have occupied their assigned units after the turn-over ceremony while the remaining units will eventually be occupied by the beneficiaries identified by the local government unit of Marawi while the NHA continues to build more. The transitory relocation site in Boganga, called Lake View Shelter, is the second temporary relocation site for the displaced fami- ECO-FRIENDLY MART.

CAGAYAN de Oro City-All business establishments and vendors in this city are now using reusable “eco bags” or paper-based wrappers, and finally got rid of the single-use plastic bags, the head of the City Local Environment and Natural Resources Office (Clenro) said on Wednesday. Engineer Armen Cuenca, the Clenro chief, claimed that since the implementation of City Ordinance No. 13378-2018 just two weeks ago, their monitoring teams have noticed that business

owners are now careful not to violate the said ordinance to skip penalty. “We have now a 100 percent compliance (rate); just today some already paid their penalties,” he said, referring to one of the big malls in the city, which was caught by Clenro enforcers issuing plastic bags. “Each plastic bag has a penalty of PHP3,000. The violator (the mall) paid PHP12,000 for four plastic bags,” he said, adding that it was so far the highest amount they fined a business establishment with so See COMPLY, page 11

Drug group eyed in murder of cop GENERAL SANTOS CITY -- Police are eyeing a drug group operating in the city as behind the killing of a police intelligence officer in a village here last week. Senior Supt. Raul Supiter, city police director, said Thursday that pieces of evidence gathered by investigators showed that the murder of Police Officer 3 Joseph Pequierda was perpetrated by an organized

PCSO www.pcso.gov.ph

group. Supiter said it also appeared that the two suspects who gunned down the police officer were guns-for-hire from outside the city, who were commissioned by the undisclosed drug group. He said Pequierda, a former operative of the city police drug enforcement unit, might have earned the ire of the suspects for his involvement in previous

anti-drug operations. Several drug personalities believed to be members of this group were arrested in the process, he said. Pequierda was reportedly on his way to an operation when shot dead by two motorcycle-riding suspects at the corner of Guinto St. and Dacera Ave. in Barangay San Isidro last January 7. The victim, assigned at the city police’s mobile force

company, had just left his home in Salangsang Village aboard a motorcycle driven by a friend when waylaid by the suspects at about 6:40 p.m. Supiter said they already arrested and filed murder charges against one of the two gunmen before the city prosecutor’s office last Tuesday. He declined to identify See EYED, page 11

Red tide hits Lianga Bay; Tacloban, Eastern Samar SHELLFISH gathered at Lianga Bay in Surigao del Sur had been hit by the toxic red tide and are not fit for human consumption, the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) warned in a bulletin issued on Monday. Based on the latest laboratory results shellfishes collected at the bay “are still positive for paralytic shellfish poison that is beyond the regulatory limit,” BFAR said. The agency said that fish, squids, shrimps and crabs may be consumed provided they are fresh and washed thoroughly, and internal organs such as gills and intestines are removed before cooking. But it added that Hinatuan and Bislig Bays, also in Surigao del Sure, are free from the red tide toxin.

On Thursday, BFAR found the red tide algal bloom in Cancabato Bay in TAcloba City after a weeklong laboratory analysis. Red tide phenomenon has been up in Matarinao Bay in Eastern Samar since October 2018, according to a local advisory of the fisheries bureau. “Pollution and high salinity triggered red tide recurrence in Cancabato Bay, but we expect the organisms will be flushed out soon due to strong current in the area,” BFAR Regional Director Juan Albaladejo said in a mobile phone interview. This is the third red tide recurrence after Super Typhoon Yolanda struck in Cancabato. The first only lasted three days and the second lasted three weeks, Albaladejo said. “Usually, it is taking so long for Matarinao Bay because the area is enclosed. The longest recorded was in 2010 where it extended

ALEOSAN, North Cotabato -- Hundreds of cases of beers fell off from a hauler truck Wednesday and a portion of the Cotabato-Davao highway here was flooded with broken bottles and the brew. “Nasubukan mo na bang lumangoy sa dagat ng beer? (Have you tried swimming in a sea of beer?” North Cotabato Vice Governor Shirlyn Macasarte Villanueva said of the 4 p.m. mishap. “We cannot pass through, it’s better that we start drinking beers here,” she said in jest in her Facebook page. Villanueva was traveling to Midsayap town from Kidapawan City when she

noticed stranded vehicles and people milling around a cargo truck. She then took photos of the incident. Ernie Saban, a local resident, said he saw the cargo truck heading to Cotabato City from Davao City and while negotiating a downward curve in Barangay Bagolibas, Aleosan, the cases of beers fell. “The bottles were broken causing a halt to traffic flow,” he told newsmen in an interview. “We tried to salvage unbroken bottles but were prevented by police,” Saban added, though admitting that several villagers

Dads hail young athlete for Highway In Norcot winning Golden Boot award flooded with beer CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY -- City lawmakers adopted a resolution congratulating and commending Carlo Dorin of Cagayan de Oro for winning the Golden Boot during the Singapore Cup (Singa Cup): Asia’s Premier International Youth Football Tournament held in Singapore last December 2018 thus bringing honor and pride to the city. Dorin, one of the members of the Great Oak Manor (GOM) playing as the forward, was awarded the Golden Boot by virtue of the team’s winning the cham-

pionship. He scored four goals in the U18 Division during the entire tournament. The Golden Boot is an award given to the player who scores the most goals in a competition or season. Originally from Monte Carlo, Barangay 12 in Cagayan de Oro City and a student of the Misamis Oriental General Comprehensive High School (MOGCHS), Carlo started playing street football when he was 11 years old. He was taught the finer points of the game by Higala FC Coach Weng dela Riarte

for whom he played for four years eventually becoming an assistant coach. From there, he qualified for the Philippine U14 team which played in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Football Festival in Brunei in 2015. He also played for Global FC at the United Football League (UFL) Summer Youth football tournament in Manila also in 2015.

GenSan sets free viewing of Pacquiao-Broner fight

GENERAL SANTOS CITY -- Boxing fans will be treated anew to a free and uninterrupted live telecast of “fighting” Senator Emmanuel “Manny” Pacquiao’s title defense against American brawler Adrien Broner in Las Vegas on Sunday. Lawyer Arnel Zapatos, city administrator, said Friday the local government has purchased a pay-perview subscription to allow residents to witness the 70th professional fight of the city’s “favorite son.” Zapatos said they will open the 5,000-capacity city g ymnasium in Barangay Lagao for the Pacquiao-Broner World Boxing Association regular welterweight championship bout. “We are urging residents to come and avail of this free treat. We will all be there to support our fighting senator,” he said in a radio interview. The city government has sponsored free live viewing at the city gymnasium during the previous fights of Pacquiao, who grew up in Barangay Labangal here.

Pacquiao had trained at the Pacman Wild Card Gym here and in nearby Sarangani province for the fight. As in the previous free live viewing of the Pacquiao fights, the city govern-

ment tapped the city’s 26 barangays for the distribution of tickets, which will guarantee reserved seats inside the gymnasium. Residents may avail of the tickets for free through their barangay councils on

a “first-come, first-served” basis. Viewing screens will be set up outside the gym for those who could not get the tickets. Zapatos said the gymnasium’s gates will be open

at 8 a.m., about an hour ahead of the expected start of the undercard bouts. “The actual fights will likely start at around 9 a.m. and continue for the main event around noon,” he added. (PNA)

Zamboanga power firm undergoes rehab works

ZAMBOANGA CITY -Member-consumers of the Zamboanga City Electric Cooperative (Zamcelco) are expected to experience unannounced power interruptions because of technical adjustments. Zamcelco spokesperson Ferdie Rodriguez said Thursday this came about as Crown Investment Holding, Inc. and Desco, Inc. are undertaking rehabilitation works to improve Zamcelco’s services to its clientele. Crown Investment and Desco took over, effective January 3, the management of Zamcelco through an investment management contract, paving the way for the infusion of some PHP2.5 billion in fresh capital. “Expect power interruption every now and then because of the ongoing improvement and rehabilitation of our system. These are part of the plans and program (of the management),” Rodriguez said. He said the priorities of the new management are the upgrade of the facility, to lower the systems’ losses and to settle the PHP1.1 billion obligation of the electric cooperative.

Father Rocky’s Street Children JAMES Augustine Dino, a culinary arts graduate, was personally chosen by Chef Alain Ducasse to work in his famous Le Jules Verne restaurant in Paris, France. Benedict Sabularse and Edmar Sumera, ballet dancers, are considered rising stars in Ballet Academy in Cannes, France and in Hamburg Ballet school in Germany, respectively. R obbie Bron, R ene Malleza, Oxenola Adimar, all automotive graduates, had successful stints in the Middle East and are now living in Australia with their families. Maricar Peñalosa, a member of the Manuvu tribe in North Cotabato, is productively employed in a BPO. What do James Augustine, Benedict, Edmar, Robbie, Rene, Oxenola and Maricar have in common? Years ago, they were malnourished, shabby, and frightened children whom Father Rocky Evangelista rescued from the streets. The good priest took them under his care at the Tuloy Foundation hoping to transform them into responsible contributing members of society. Father Rocky has been hugely successful. For the

past 25 years, Tuloy Foundation has taken under its wing around 20,000 street children who, otherwise, would have been at risk of becoming perpetual burdens of society or, worse, criminals. Father Rocky’s formula was simple: Gather these children in a caring and nurturing environment, provide them with their basic needs, give them basic literacy and technicalvocational skills training and initial job placement. More important: teach them to dream and make them realize those dreams via value and spiritual formation. Of course, it was easier said than done. Father Rocky started in 1993 with only 12 street children in a small room in Don Bosco Parish Compound in Makati City. He was assisted by young volunteers, all professionals in their field. To support his advocacy, Father Rocky said he had to become a “professional beggar”. “I am not ashamed to admit it. I beg and beg. But I beg for others.” Father Rocky begged the DSWD, and the DSWD acceded, to lease to the

Tuloy Foundation an idle property in Alabang for 50 years, renewable for another 50 years. Thus, Tuloy Foundation was able to move to a bigger training venue in 1997. Then Father Ro cky begged some more. He asked friends, companies, even total strangers. Somehow they responded. In one fund-raising occasion, an attendee was so moved by Tuloy’s advocacy that he responded in a dramatic fashion. He removed the Rolex from his wrist and turned it over to Father Rocky. I also happily donated a major portion of the proceeds of the then-ongoing Mayor Toting Bunye golf tournament to Tuloy. It is not difficult to understand why supporters , like Muntinlupa City businessman/civic leader Diony Alog and Ex Bpi Executive Cathy Go, share their time and resources with Tuloy. They immediately see where their donation goes. Father Rocky is also very transparent is accounting for every peso (or dollar) in alms received.

Tuloy Foundation offers a DEPEd-approved non-traditional curriculum, using Alternative Learning System (ALS) modules which provide basic competencies in Science, Math, English, Pilipino, Religion and Civics.

Burden of Two Cities

GENERAL SANTOS CITY -- The cities of Isabela and Cotabato are odd. They live in the House they were born in; have legally denied through election kinship with the members of the House they were born with; but, by necessity, have grown by and enjoyed the blessings they were born to. Now, they are being asked for the third time to acknowledge that kinship and join their kin to determine for themselves, by right, how to develop their richly endowed House. Must they elect to acknowledge and join? That is their burden. Isabela City [Interesting Historical Note: istoric Zamboanga City when created in 1937included Basilan Island.. Basilan was created into a separate city in1948. In 1973, Presidential Decree No. 356 created the Island as Basilan Province with three municipalities – Isabela (capital), Lamitan and Maluso – without abolishing Basilan City but retaining it in an area of about one square kilometer sliced off Isabela. Later, two successive decrees amended PD No. 356. In No. 593, seven new municipalities were created while Basilan City was slightly enlarged; in No. 840, the ten municipalities were reduced to seven and Basilan City was merged

with Isabela. On March 5, 2001 Isabela became a city. (Source: Wikipedia)] In the November 1989 plebiscite, Basilan opted out of the ARMM under RA No. 6734. In the August 14, 2001 plebiscite, it joined the so-called expanded ARMM under RA No. 9054; but, Isabela, voting separately as chartered city by then, opted out. Consequently, Basilan relocated its capital to Lamitan (now a city) and Isabela City was left in an awkward situation. First, administratively, Isabela City, still under the jurisdiction of Basilan, fell outside that of the ARMM while remaining with Region IX which is composed of the three Zamboanga Provinces and Zamboanga City with its seat in Pagadian City. As such, regional services for Isabela City come from offices in Region IX, not the ARMM; the Basilan provincial government and its Sangguniang Panlalawigan provide provincially devolved services. Second, as just a component city –not independent component – (a) Isabela City is still being regulated by the Basilan provincial government in the administration of provincially devolved services and functions; (b) it shares its tax revenues with the province; (c) its residents are eligible to both

vote and run for provincial offices of Basilan; and, (d) it is part of lone congressional district of Basilan. Cotabato City Cotabato City, an independent component city, refused to join the ARMM in 1989 and 2001. Remaining in Region XII, it is like Isabela City in one way but not in others. First, in both RA Nos. 6734 and 9054, Cotabato City was designated as the tentative seat of ARMM until the Regional Assembly could pick the permanent seat. It passed up the privilege conferred. However, it continued enjoying it when ARMM failed to choose its permanent seat. Second, as Isabela City ceased being the capital of Basilan, Cotabato City lost the seat of Region XII to Koronadal City. Third, unlike Isabela City, as an independent component city of Maguindanao, Cotabato City is not administratively subject to the provincial government of Maguindanao which provides no services to the city; does not share its tax revenues with the province; does not participate in Maguindanao elections except that for congressional representative as it is part of the first congressional district of Maguindanao. Common Concerns

Except for losing the convenience due their political capital status – as capital of Basilan on the part of Isabela City and of Region XII in the case of Cotabato City – they did not lose any by opting out of the ARMM. Since 2001, they have shown significant increases in their income and population – evidence of social and economic growth. Do they have to join BARMM or Bangsamoro,¸for short? To unburden themselves, their voters should weigh these vital issues and facts: On politics: Political leaders of the two cities relate with leaders of their immediate political neighbors to promote their common political welfare or solve their problems. They elect their representatives to the Congress together with the voters of the districts of the provinces to which they belong. On economy: The two cities do trade and commerce with areas and people immediately around them, not with their distant regions. Cotabato City, for instance, uses primarily the port of Polloc in Parang and the airport in Awang, Datu Odin, both in Maguindanao for its trade and commerce. On peace and order: Both cities are represented in the peace and order See CITIES, page 11

posted a year ago, BSP Officer-in-Charge Maria Almasara Cyd N. Tuaño-Amador announced today. The growth in personal remittances during the first eleven months of 2018 was supported by remittance inflows from land-based OFs with work contracts of one year or more

as well as remittances from sea-based and land-based OFs with work contracts of less than one year which increased by 2.8 percent and 4.0 percent, respectively. Meanwhile, cash remittances rose by 2.8 percent year-onyear to US$2.3 billion in November 2018.

The countries that contributed most to the increase for the month were Canada and the United States (US). For the first eleven months of 2018, cash remittances reached US$26.1 billion, or a 3.1 percent increase compared to the US$25.3 billion registered in the same

period in 2017. Cash remittances from both land-based (US$20.5 billion) and sea-based workers (US$5.5 billion) recorded increments of 2.8 percent and 4.1 percent for January - November 2018, respectively. The bulk of cash remittances for the

Financial Management in the Context of Philippine Educational System By JUPITER Y. TAGUPA

Financial Management is the ability of an individual to prioritize, source-out, mobilize and multiply funds. It is the basic skill that every individual must posses as part of human adaptation and survival. Often times, people who are frugal like the Ilokanos and the Chinese, are labeled to be a good financial manager. Many of us believe that being thrifty is an essential character to be rich and financially successful. In the conservative Filipino/ Catholic/ Christian culture, husband are expected to be the provider of the family and termed as the “Haligi ng tahanan”. He must therefore be, hardworking and resourceful enough to give the abundance of the family. Mean while, wives are designated as the in charge of finance doing the budgeting and the treasure keeping. It is because, accordingly, women have greater multitasking abilities than men. Family with mother who is illiterate in good budgeting has greater tendencies of being financially troubled and turned into huge debts. But in the contemporary times, although

wives remain to be the treasurer keeper, both the couples must have the check and balance of the family finances. In running an organization, one of the primary concerns of leaders is sourcing out funds. Funds are the backbone of the organization for it fuels up the organizational programs, project and activities. As the saying goes: “dili motindog and sako kung walay sulod.”A good leader must be creative and resourceful in findings ways to boast up funds. He must also be good in connecting to different foundations and NGOs to solicit their support for sponsorship or funding. He must be careful enough in spending and prioritizing the varied illegible items despite the limited and insufficient allocation. Tantamount to those skills are also needed in dealing with the public education system. In addition, he needs to be knowledgeable enough with Republic Act 9184 or The Government Procurement Reform Act of 2002 and priorities illegible items to be procured with in the different allocated government funds such as MOOE (Maintenance Operation and Other Expenses), SBFP (School Based Feeding Pro-

gram), SBM Allocation (School Based Management) School to School Partnership etc.. Part of this knowledge is his efficiency to liquidate any expenditure of government funds to keep away from stagnation or revocation or of any government allocations and benefits that the school might receive. Moreover, the school head must be charismatic enough to win the support (man power and financial) of the different organizations (stakeholders) with in (the internal stakeholders who has the direct and immediate relationship with the pupils, such as the Parent-Teachers Association, Faculty Association and Pupils’ Government Organization) and outside (the external Stakeholders who has no immediate relationship with the pupils such as the honorable Local Government Unit - Barangay Council, Municipal and Provincial politicians, the different Foundations and NGOs, the various sectors of the community) the school community. Any school activities, which budget is beyond the government allocated funds can be realized through the support of every stakeholder. With the principle of shared governance, shared responsibility

and accountability, the consultative and collaborative effort to improve the school performance and pupils learning is reflected in the three year road map of the school, the School Improvement Plan which is translated to Annual Implementation Plan and then to Annual Procurement Plan. The crafting of the SIP means to provide purposive varied Programs, Projects and Activities to improve “the quality of pupils learning and school performance such as equitable access to complete basic education to kind of learners”. Hence, it entails good financial management and the realization of this activities remain a great challenge for school heads who are deployed in small school, of a poor community and public officials who has less concern towards education. But, the bible remind us in Colossians 3:7 “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus” for “with Him all things are possible” Matthew 19:26. This would be enough for school heads assigned in this region, that, with the abundance of God, everything will go smoothly. To God be the Glory.

What defines you? By DEBORAH BORROMEO-FLORA HT-II Mangalay Elementary School Southwest II District Division of Cagayan de Oro City

One of the best article of Nelson Dy, he tackled about what really defines every person. According to him some people linked their identity with their work. We tend to describe ourselves by our profession. However, take away one’s career and very likely he will feel lost, empty, and dismayed. That’s why in his Part I article, he argued that work, possessions, and failure would not define us. So, what should? He suggested three in this article. Frist is grace which means extending love or kindness to someone who doesn’t deserve it. Next excellence that is motivated by grace and lastly God who defines us. Since High School days I

already encountered this question, “Who am I? “ I can’t recall anymore how many times I answer this question but now, I can directly answer that I am God’s child save by His grace and heir of the kingdom in heaven. I am so much thankful that I have a good relationship with Jesus Christ and He bless me so much. My life is His best gift to me, then my parents, my husband and my two sons. They are my greatest treasure. I could say that he bless me so much although there are trials, but these are spices in life. I got married at an early age, I thought I will be a plain housewife for life but Jesus Christ made a way. After 12 years of marriage, He touched the heart and mind of my husband to send

It is my duty to live in integrity and be faithful to my work.

IN education, student engagement refers to the degree of attention, curiousity, interest, optimism and passion that students show when they are learning or being taught which extends to the level of motivation they have to learn and progress in their education. It occurs when students make a psychological investment in learning. They try hard to learn what school offers. They take pride not simply in earning the formal indicators of success but in understanding the material and incorporating or internalizing it in their lives. Start the class with a

MAKING READING A DAILY HABIT By CORAZON Z. BARTOCES, ESP I

Reading is an activity where an individual gains insights and information on certain people, things and events. This can be done anywhere and anytime of the day to the convenience of the reader. But, do people especially school-age children nowadays, love to read? In the Department of Education, we have the DEAR Program, the 3 o’clock habit and other reading intervention programs to develop the love for reading to our pupils.

students must develop the habit of reading every day, but the teachers and school administrators as well. This is to ensure that we keep ourselves abreast with the recent development and happenings in our country and in the entire world as well. Reading could take us to places where we have not been and which we could not visit even in our dreams. It could enhance our imagination, can inspire us and can motivate us in different ways. Further, reading can improve our vocabulary and our knowledge of people, things and events. So, we must make reading a daily habit.

Run a tight ship when giving instructions. Use a fairness cup to keep students thinking. Student engagement means that students do more than just answer a question during a session of sit and get.

DTI slaps P8.40 per bag duty on imported cement By KRIS CRISMUNDO

MANILA -- The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) has taken a firm step to protect local cement manufacturers in the wake of reports that imported cement has been flooding the local market in recent months. DTI Secretary Ramon Lopez on Thursday said his agency will impose a provisional safeguard duty of PHP8.40 per bag of imported cement after its own investigation found out that there are clear elements of a surge in cement imports, which will cause injury to local manufacturers. “With the elements of surge and injury clearly established, DTI is mandated to impose a safeguard duty,” Lopez said.

“DTI is thus imposing a provisional safeguard duty of PHP8.40 per bag,” he said, adding that this is equivalent to about 4 percent of a typical PHP220 40-kilogram cement bag. The department was expected to release its findings and decision last weekend, but it delayed the issuance until this day after

Lopez met the importers’ group last Tuesday. Importers earlier claimed that they did not pose any threat to local cement manufacturers, as their share in the local supply remains low. P h i l i p p i n e C e m e nt Importers Association’s (PCIA) data based on DTIBureau of Import Services

showed that of the total 28.56 million metric tons of demand in 2017, local manufacturers supplied 25.58 million MT while importers supplied the remaining 2.98 million MT. Wh e n a s k e d i f t h e PHP8.40 tariff rate per bag is the same amount the DTI was originally eyeing before he met with importers, Lopez replied “no comment”. “In the case of cement manufacturing, imports of cement increased from only 3,558 metric tons in 2013 to more than 3 million metric tons in 2017; and the share of imports (from non-manufacturer or “pure” traders) increased from only EXTRAJUDICIAL PARTITION WITH DEED OF ABSOLUTE SALE Notice is hereby given that the intestate estate of the late SPS.

NFA allots P50-M for palay procurement in Soccsksargen By HYDEE TEMPLONUEVO

GENERAL SANTOS CITY -- The National Food Authority (NFA) has allocated an initial PHP50 million this year for the purchase of palay from farmers in Region 12 (Soccsksargen). Dianne Silva, NFA-12 regional manager, said Friday the move aims to offset the unstable commercial palay buying price in parts of the region that has dropped to as low as PHP14 per kg. in the past two weeks. She said they submitted a request to their central office for the release of additional funds for their palay procurement program. “This will allow us to purchase more palay from local farmers this harvest season at higher prices,” Silva said in an interview. The provincial board’s committee on agriculture, earlier, called the attention of NFA and other concerned agencies over the declining palay buying price of commercial traders in the area. Silva and representatives of the Department of Agriculture 12 met with members of the South Cotabato provincial board in Koronadal City early this week to resolve the problem. Board member Romulo Solivio, the committee chair, said local farmers have been clamoring for government intervention to spare them from further losses. Since last year, Silva said the agency has increased its palay buying prices to offer local farmers a better alternative. She said farmers may now avail of an additional PHP3.70 incentive per kg. on top of their buying price of PHP17 per kg. NFA set an incentive of PHP3 a kg. for buffer stocking, 30 centavos a kg. as cooperative development incentive fee, 20 centavos a kg. as drying incentive, and 20 centavos a kg. for the delivery fee. With the incentives, the official said members of farmers’ organizations and cooperatives may avail of a buying price of PHP20.70 a kg. while non-members or individual farmers could get PHP20.40 a kg. She said NFA may provide hauling trucks to farmers who have difficulty transporting their harvests to their designated buying stations. However, she said the 20-centavo incentive for delivery will be waived by the agency for those who would avail of such service. (PNA)

2 NPA arsonists yield in Sultan Kudarat CAMP SIONGCO, Maguindanao -- Two members of the communist New People’s Army (NPA), who were involved in the recent torching of eight heavy equipment in Kalamansig, Sultan Kudarat, have surrendered to authorities, the Army said Wednesday. Lt. Col. Harold Cabunoc, commander of the Army’s 33rd Infantry Battalion (IB), presented the surrenderers to Lt. Col. Jorge Garcia, commander of the 2nd Marine Battalion Landing Team (MBLT), during ceremonies held at the 33IB headquarters in President Quirino, Sultan Kudarat. Local government officials, in coordination with the 33IB, have facilitated the surrender of the duo, who have earlier sent surrender feelers to Cabunoc,

in the outskirts of Senator Nonoy Aquino town, also in Sultan Kudarat. The surrenderers, identified only through aliases Ka Jongie and Ka Fred, also yielded two 9mm M11 Ingram submachine pistols. Ka Jongie, 35, said they have realized the futility of their cause. “We were made to believe that the communists can help us claim back our ancestral lands. Instead, our involvement in the communist terrorist group had brought more suffering to us and our communities,” he said. Cabunoc, for his part, urged the surrenderers to collaborate with government authorities in solving the problems of their communities. See YIELD, page 10

total for the year. This may be attributed to the large investment in a holding company registered this year accompanied by investors’ optimism over the passage of the first phase of the government’s tax reform program. Outflows for the year amounting to US$14.8 billion reflected an 8.8 percent decline compared to US$16.3 billion in 2017. About 96.8 percent of total outflows represented capital repatriation with the remaining 3.2 percent pertaining to earnings. Transactions for 2018 yielded net inf lows of

US$1.2 billion compared to the US$195 million net outflows for the same period last year, which is attributed to a large investment in a holding company registered in 2018. Portfolio investments registered during the year were mainly in PSE-listed securities (71.4 percent). Peso government securities (GS - 20.2 percent), and other Peso debt instruments (OPDIs - 8.3 percent). Transactions for the following instruments generated net inflows: OPDIs - US$1.3 billion; Peso GS - US$1.2 billion; and Peso time deposits - less

than US$1 million; while net outflows were noted for PSE-listed securities (US$1.3 billion). The United Kingdom, the United States (US), Singapore, Netherlands, and Hong Kong were the top five (5) investor countries during the year, with combined share to total of 72.8 percent, while the US continued to be the main destination of outflows, receiving 78.8 percent of total. Registration of inward foreign investments with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) is optional under the liberalized rules

on foreign exchange transactions. The issuance of a BSP registration document entitles the investor or his representative to buy foreign exchange from authorized agent banks and/ or their subsidiary/affiliate foreign exchange corporations for repatriation of capital and remittance of earnings that accrue on the registered investment. Without such registration, the foreign investor can stili repatriate capital and remit earnings on his investment but the foreign exchange will have to be sourced outside the banking system.

Firearms, explosives seized in first 3 days of Comelec gun ban DAVAO CITY -- Davao police seized several firearms and two hand g renades during the first three days of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) gun ban period. Guesting on Wednesday’s Armed Forces of the Philippines-Philippine National Police press briefing at the Royal Mandaya Hotel, Chief Insp. Jason Baria, the spokesperson of Police Regional Office-11 (Davao Region), said the firearms and explosives were seized during the first three days of the gun ban which started on January 13. Baria added that on Tuesday an alleged robbery suspect was killed during a shootout with police near the Matina Biao Elementary School in

Purok 5, Barangay Matina Biao, Tugbok District. The susp ect Julius Curesis Boot, 40, was spotted in the vicinity of Matina Biao Elementary School with a pistol visibly tucked in his waistband. Boot fired at the arresting officers. Police operatives recovered from the scene an Armscor .45-caliber pistol. Also on Tuesday, Baria said a barangay councilman of Magpet, North Cotabato, once targeted by the communist party for allegedly not paying a revolutionary tax, was arrested together with four other companions for alleged possession of explosives and firearms. Seized from the arrested men were two hand grenades, a .45-caliber

pistol with five magazines and 73 bullets, a 9-mm pistol with two magazines and 64 bullets, a .30-caliber M2 Carbine with six magazines and 99 bullets. Comelec-11 spokesperson, lawyer Krisna Caballero, reminded individual gun owners that “license permits, mission orders and other authority to bear and carry firearms have been suspended unless there is authority from Comelec.” “Violators can face two cases -- violation of the Revised Penal Code on carrying firearms without permit and the Omnibus Election Code,” she said. Caballero said people in Mindanao should also be aware that all permits to carry have been suspended due to enforcement of martial law. (PNA)

DAVAO CITY -- A worker of Karapatan in Mindanao was abducted by still unknown assailants on Wednesday morning, an official of the human rights group said on Thursday. In a statement, Karapatan secretary general Cristina Palabay identified the victim as R acquel Quintano, spokesperson of Kalumonan, an organization of kin of political prisoners in Southern

Mindanao. Palabay said Quintano was waiting for a jeepney in Barangay Madaum, Tagum City in Davao del Norte when a black car stopped in front of her, dragged her inside and sped off. She said Quintano’s whereabouts remain unknown despite efforts by a search team to locate her. She blamed the incident on “state forces” and demanded Quintano’s return

to her family. “We know Racquel as a staunch rights advocate. She assisted two torture victims in the filing of their complaints at the Commission on Human Rights last year. She has worked tirelessly to seek accountability for the injustices done against the two victims, one of whom was a minor when the incident occurred,” Palabay said. (MindaNews)

Balutan shares secrets to leading a successful agency

AFTER successfully hitting its revenue, which is P63.55 billion, from its target P60 billion in 2018, Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) General Manager Alexander Balutan shared the secrets to leading a successful agency, despite all the challenges and detractors. “The character I have painstakingly built through the years in the military service along with the Academy’s motto of ‘Courage, Integrity and Loyalty’ are the most effective and powerful management tools in leading a successful agency,” emphasized Balutan. A graduate of Philippine Military Academy “Matikas” Class of 1983, Balutan is a battle-tested Mindanao veteran and a former marine general who earned the moniker “Mandirigma” in the Armed Forces of the Philippines. In 2016, Balutan was appointed by President Rodrigo Duterte as General Manager to help fight corruption in PCSO. “No need for a doctorate degree or luxurious titles if one has weak leadership and poor discipline/character,” he added. Over the years, PCSO

was plagued with alleged corrupt activities that even the President described it as the “most corrupt agency in the government”. “My battle-cry that time was touching lives, winning the peace. But up to now, we are touching lives. Dati sabi nila, ‘Mandirigma’ pampaiksi ng buhay, ngayon, pampahaba na ng buhay dahil sa mga tinutulungan nating mga pasyente na nangangailangan ng tulong medikal mula sa PCSO,” added Balutan. Balutan emphasized how valuable the PCSO products namely Lotto and digit games, Keno, Instant Sweepstakes, and Small Town Lottery are in the agency’s Charity Fund. PCSO Charter, or RA 1169, particularly on revenue allocation, provides that the revenue of the PCSO shall be allocated to 55 percent for prize fund (payment of prizes), 30 percent for charity fund (various charity programs and service) and 15 percent as operating fund (maintenance and operating expenses). “We generate funds for charity services of the country, health programs of national character.

LOOKING BEYOND By CORAZON Z. BARTOCES, ESP I

With man’s uniqueness, each one possesses traits, capabilities, skills, talents and attitudes different from others. This too includes the different ways in looking at things. As school administrators, we encounter a lot of challenges every day in our dealings with the people and the environment with which we are a part of. These challenges often awaken the innermost feelings in us. Human as we are, we react to these challenges differently. Among the things we should consider are the varied options with which we can select from and not to confine ourselves with

what is available at hand. For sometimes, this is not the best option. Sometimes, discouragement attacks us and makes us weak and vulnerable. But, we must learn to look beyond these challenges; for oftentimes, the sunshine is just lurking behind the clouds. Challenges are just ways by which our creator is making us stronger so we could surmount all boulders that will get in our way to shake us. We must always face each challenge boldly and bear in mind that beyond each challenge lays an opportunity; an opportunity to make ourselves better and stronger.

Bonbon NHS is now set for Brigada 2019 By WENNIE RUTHSEN C. PILAPIL

Brigada Eskwela is a yearly jumpstart activity in every school nationwide that involves teachers, students, parents and other stakeholders to prepare the school in welcoming the students for the new school year. The preparation involves cleaning, repairing, re-painting, decorating and donating of materials essential in improving the school or in a specific classroom. In the school year 2018-2019 the school received donations such as cash, school supplies, plywood and cleaning materials from the different stakeholders through the effort of the teachers and the school head. These materials were used in the implementation of the Brigada Eskwela from May 29 to June 2, 2018. As the school year closes, Bonbon NHS an-

ticipates the opening of brigade Eskwela 2019 and the school does the spadework by informing the teachers ahead through a faculty meeting called by the principal and assigned working committees on the said event. This is to ensure that everyone can participate and work collaboratively as one team with one vision. Part of the preparation is to invite again stakeholders to actively participate and be part of this year’s activity. The Brigada Eskwela helps strengthen relationships with the people involve as they work toward one goal that is for the welfare of the students as the main recipients of all the effort in terms of physical, financial or material supplies to ensure the delivery of quality education to be able to complete globally.

and backhoe. Janmerc has been tasked to undertake a road-concreting project between the towns of Senator Ninoy Aquino and Kalamansig, both in Sultan Kudarat province. The rebels burned the heavy equipment after the construction firm rejected their demand for revolutionary taxes and protection money. A company-size contingent of the 2nd MBLT, backed by police forces, were immediately dispatched to hunt down the NPAs operating in the area. Speaking on behalf of the 2nd MBLT, Garcia has pledged to assist the former rebels so they would be able to receive the social benefits under the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program of the government. Maj. Gen. Cirilito Sobejana, commander of the Army’s 6th Infantry Division, has cited the collabofrom page 7 ration between the military “Resist the intrusion of units to go after the NPA in the deceptive propaganda of the Kalamansig-President the communists by actively participating in peace dialogues and by supporting the implementation of development projects,” Cabunoc told the returnees. Last Jan. 7, both surrenderers, together with some 20 others, torched eight heavy equipment being used for road construction in the upland village of Hinalaan in Kalamansig, Sultan Kudarat. The rebels, clad in fatigue uniforms, arrived at the construction site of Janmerc Construction Company around 5 a.m. that day and burned the equipment. Seven of the construction equipment were torched in Barangay Hinalaan center while a backhoe was burned in Sitio Saniag, also in the same barangay.

How to spend our time? By DEBORAH BORROMEO-FLORA HT-II Mangalay Elementary School Southwest II District Division of Cagayan de Oro City

In this article Francis J. Kong talked about the importance of time. He emphasized the value of time to everyone. According to him Time is irretrievable. When you lose money, you can re-earn it. When you lose a friend, you can patch up the relationship. When you lose a job, you can find another one. When you lose energy, you can recharge. But when you lose time you can never get it back. He stressed that he hated being late and people who are constantly late for appointments. Being late is stealing other people’s time to someone else. Some people may not steal properties, but they really steal people’s time – which actually more valuable. Upon reading this, it really struck my heart and mind. It made me reflect for a few minutes. My family, relatives, and friends knew me. They can be the best one who can tell who I am. Although it’s so shameful but I must admit that most of my appointments I came late. I thought when I said sorry and explained why I am late that’s it. It’s not a big deal. But after reading this article I promised myself to try my very best not to be late anymore. I

must teach myself to manage my time properly in order not to steal others time. In fairness to myself, I really spend my time as if it is my last day so that I can do my best in everything that I do for the glory of Jesus Christ. Even if I had a hectic schedule every day I see to it that I can spend quality time to my love ones, co- workers and friends. I prioritize every events. I am just wondering why time sweep away so quickly then I realize that I cannot hold time anymore and l am late to a certain appointment. I wake up so early, prepare myself and always in a hurry but disappointed because I am still late for a few minutes. Life teaches us to make good use of time while Time teaches us the value of life. We are just ambassadors in this world of ours. We doesn’t know when our creator get our borrowed life. So, we must spend it wisely, make the best of it, and cherish every moment with our family and love ones. I am so lucky that my parents are still with me, both are in their late 70’s. One of my dream is to give them a golden wedding celebration on their 50th wedding anniversary. There are many trials I encountered espe-

cially financial but I promised myself to do anything just to pursue this memorable event in their lives. So lucky that I fulfilled it last Sept 22, 2017 through the blessings of Jesus Christ. Last January 11, 2019 another dream came true, I had my 50th birthday celebration with my parents, family, relatives, friends, batch mates 1983 from City Central School and 1988 Liceo de Cagayan High School. As an educator and a school administrator, I will share this article to the teachers and discuss about the value of time during our school conferences. I believe that we always hear, read and encounter values but there is really time for everything, Just like me, I remembered a quote I read before that make a difference in my life. I cried so much when I read it. ‘The key to success is to free your heart from hatred”. So, it will be my advocacy to share to others what makes me a better person. Lastly, “Time is valuable, Waste it wisely. Spend it with people who make you laugh and make a difference in your life”.

the 250-hectare most affected area (MAA) who have stayed in the different evacuation centers in Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur since the start of Marawi siege. The first one is the Bahay Ng Pagbabago in Barangay Sagonsongan where the government built 1,052 temporary shelters which are being occupied already by the beneficiaries. Inside the Sagonsongan is also built the Angat Buhay Village, sponsored by Vice President Leni Robredo’s Angat Buhay Foundation. Sixty houses were also occupied by the identified beneficiaries. The NHA said 1,500 transitory shelter units will be built in Boganga and before March 2019 will end, around 300 additional units will be turned over to the next batch of beneficiaries. “Tuloy-tuloy po ang pagbibigay namin ng (transitory shelter) units hanggang sa ma-occupy ang 550 units at sa darating na Marso ay muli kaming magbubukas at magtu-turn over ng 250 to 300 units pa po para sa mga kapatid nating nasa mga evacuation centers pa,” said NHA Director Roderick Ibanez (with enye). Started in August last year, the housing agency finished the first 550 units in less than a five months. Happy but sad Salima Ampaso, a former resident of Barangay Datu Naga inside the MAA said she was relieved when she was included in the first batch to be transferred in the transitory shelter in Boganga. It was not comfortable living in the evacuation area for almost two years according to her. “Mainit sa evacuation center, wala kang privacy. Di ka makagalaw para mag hanapbu hay d a hi l walang magbabantay sa tent mo, sa anak mo dahil nag-alala ka sa safety niya,” Ampaso said. Although it took almost two years before she and her fellow evacuees to transfer to a better shelter, it was worth the wait she added. “Nawalan na ang paghihirap namin doon (sa evacuation center) dahil nandito na kami sa Boganga,” Ampaso said. But she was sad because some of her neighbors are left in the evacuation center, some are still living with their relatives outside Marawi City. The Task Force Bangon Marawi explained that it prioritized those who are still living in the evacuation centers outside Marawi City to be transferred to transitory shelters. The transitory shelters are built for the residents coming from the most affected area. Around 800 families are still living in the evacuation centers according to Ibanez (with enye).

When all of these families will be given their temporary houses, those living in the evacuation tents, such as the Sarimanok tents in Barangay Poblacion, will be the next priority. Earlier, the Department of Social Welfare and Development said, more than 300 families are living in the Areas 1 and 2 of Sarimanok tent. When these families will be transferred to transitory shelters, those families living with their relatives will be accommodated next. Sharing with relatives “Marami p a kasing home-based doon (sa Baloi) at nasa evacuation center. Mahirap ang walang bahay kasi binu-bully ka, sisigawan ng ‘bakwit, bakwit’ parang sinusumbat sayo... Umalis na kayo rito kasi di kayo taga rito. Tiniis lang namin yun. No comment na ako kung sino nagsasabi noon sa amin,” Ampaso said. She noted that it was also a perfect timing that they left the municipal gym where they evacuated because the local government said the facility will be used for their town’s activities. Ampaso said she could not live comfortably in her concrete transitory shelter living behind her 65-year old uncle, Lawi and his 53-year old wife, Tata Ampao, she brought them with her in Boganga. The Ampao couple, who has three children, said they will continue to wait until they will be given their temporary house. “Matanda na kasi sila. Uncle ko nagtatrabaho as welder pero hindi sa lahat ng panahon may trabaho siya,” Ampaso said. Now that she was transferred, and with her uncle and auntie left to look after her daugher, she will start looking for any work to sustain the needs for her family while waiting for the livelihood assistance promised by the government. “Baka babalik ako sa pagbebenta ng mga prutas at gulay kasi yun ang pinagkakakitaan ko dati nung di pa nagka giyera sa Marawi. Kailangan ko’ng kumayod kasi single mother ako, iniwan ako ng asawa ko,” Ampaso said.

Deeper conversation on plastic, waste management Meanwhile, even the academic sector welcomed the enforcement of the city ordinance, otherwise known as the “Integrated Eco-biological Solid Waste Management Ordinance,” that it has opened the possibilities of applying integrating solid waste management and environment-based researches

Sat-Sun, January 19-20, 2019 or undergo further study. Dr. Judy Marie Zoleta, faculty and researcher of the Department of Natural Sciences in Liceo de Cagayan University, the ordinance is a huge step towards attaining sustainable development from the standpoint of environmental health and safety. “Eliminating plastics can protect the environment, prevent people from getting adverse health effects as a result of burning plastics, and prevent aquatic organisms from getting entangled in it or ingesting it,” Zoleta, who has made five researches published in scientific journals relating to water and air pollutants, said. Kris Galarpe, a faculty and researcher at the University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines, said the implementation of the ordinance has put the city in a position towards promoting proactive environmental behavior, but still underscored the importance of disciplining the people so they would not use excessive amounts of plastics. “It’s not plastic problem, (but) it’s (the) people,” Galarpe said, who is taking her doctorate in Environmental Science at the University of the Philippines - Diliman, and has coauthored at least 36 journals in 2018. “It’s hard to educate millions of (people on) plastic disposal management, who are also unwilling to participate,” she added. She also said that officials and concerned individuals or groups must socially assess the city, too, as some problems may come from the city government due to its inability to provide waste facility to process plastic wastes. But according to Bencyrus Ellorin, chairman of the cause-oriented group, the Pinoy Aksyon for Governance and Environment, related projects are underway, and that the city’s barangays are being capacitated on Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs). “Kining (this) plastic regulation ordinance for us is a good start to more stringent regulation of plastics. Naa ni siya mahimo nga kaayuhan (It can bring benefits) definitely, but di ta mag mata og morning nga masulbad ang problema sa plastic niini (but we don’t just wake up one morning thinking that it can solve the plastic problem overnight) and then blame the government if it fails,” he said. Cuenca said they welcome suggestions and researches from the academic sector, while Ellorin said their organization can be used as a platform for dialogue and advocacy between the academe and local government units when it comes to plastic and solid waste management - as a matter of public management and governance. Curbing plastic mecha-

nisms from other LGUs Other local government units (LGUs) in Region 10 (Northern Mindanao) also had their way of reducing plastic use. In Malaybalay City, Bukidnon, a project called “plastic densifier” was operated to recycle plastics. The Department of Science and Technology in Region 10 (DOST-10) named the project as the best Local Grant-in-Aid (LGIA) in the region in 2018. The densifier is a one-ton bioreactor, the local government unit’s strategy to solid waste management efficiency. DOST-10 communi cation officer, Julie Ann Baculo, said the town of Impasug-ong, Bukidnon initiated a program for outof-school youths to develop and produce charcoal briquettes made from waste materials. “We also have a project that converts biodegradable wastes into charcoal briquettes. The briquettes can substitute in the use of firewood as fuel. Equipment will be provided this year to LGU-Impasug-ong,” she said. (PNA)

the suspect pending the ongoing investigation and operations against his alleged cohort. “We have the complete name of one of the suspects. We’re still trying to identify the other one,” he said in a media briefing. The police of f icial, however, said they have photographs of the second suspect based on footage from security cameras set up at the slain suspect’s house. Citing information from intelligence sources, Supiter added that the suspects were reportedly hired gunmen from North Cotabato. (PNA)

Dress-making and Call Center Readiness. Part and parcel of the Tuloy program is sports (basically football and touch rugby) which Father Rocky considers vital in teaching discipline and teamwork. He says it is also good therapy for former street children who need to vent negative emotions in a more productive way. Already, Fr. Rocky is seeking to further expand the reach of Tuloy Foundation. Tuloy recently expanded to Angeles City in Pampanga in a one-hectare property with an initial 22 students and another satellite unit in Soro-soro, Biñan City, Laguna. Also, Tuloy has three mobile classrooms (offering short courses in Consumer Electronics and Basic Computer Literacy) that regularly traverse Laguna, Pampanga, Tarlac, Pangasinan, Occidental Mindoro, Leyte and Cagayan de Oro City in cooperation with

the Philippine Army’s Civic Military Operations Regiment. The work of the “professional beggar” has not gone unnoticed. The list of awards and recognitions received by Tuloy Foundation, both from local and international bodies, is just too long. But let me just mention that In 2007, Tuloy Foundation was adjudged by the Muntinlupa City Government as The Most Outstanding Organization “for significant contribution to the life of Muntinlupeños through acts of service and generosity”.

councils of their regions; yet, in reality those councils have nothing to do with security and peace and order conditions in those cities. For instance, when crimes are committed in Cotabato City it’s the Maguindanao provincial and ARMM regional police commands that assist the city police to solve them, if necessary. On social services: When necessary, the cities coordinate with their immediate neighbors to facilitate social services. For instance, Cotabato City does not have sources of potable water. It coordinates with Sultan Kudarat and Datu Odin Sinsuat for this necessity. School system: Officially, at present, the school divisions of the two cities are under their respective regions. Under the Bangsamoro Organic Law, the Bangsamoro educational system will have features especially for Bangsamoros calling for programs especial for Bangsamoro children. On Shari’ah: The Shari’ah will be an essential part of the Bangsamoro justice system. While non-Moros (unless they opt otherwise), are exempted from the application of Shari’ah laws, the exemption does not apply to geographical areas within Bangsamoro. By the census of 2015, Cotabato City is 76 percent Muslim (228,036 out of 299,438); Isabela, 64 percent (72,182 out of 112,788). They are predominantly Muslim cities in predominantly Muslim provinces. Yet, as of January 1, Luwaran, the website of MILF Central Committee, said YES-Vote in these two cities was problematic. Considering the foregoing, should the cities of Cotabato and Isabela not VOTE YES? Are they, by their Moro-ness not constrained to be one with all other Muslim provinces and cities to pursue their right

to self-determination to develop their rich Bangsamoro natural, human and cultural resources for themselves and other Bangsamoros? Or, will they still VOTE NO, unmindful of their Moro-ness knowing that they will not be kicked out of the House they were born in, denied of their kinship with those they were born with and deprived of their right to continue growing in and enjoying the bounty they were born to in Bangsamoro?

for a year. We need strong continuous rains and sustained wave action to flush out the red tide organism,” he added. The presence of red tide in both meat and water calls for prohibition of gathering, trading and consumption of shellfish from identified areas over the possibility of shellfish poisoning. The bay, however, has a good flushing action due to the strong current in the San Juanico Strait. BFAR conducts weekly monitoring of sea water in bays hit by red tide in the past, but for positive areas, authorities examine water and meat samples three times weekly. The fisheries bureau advised the public to refrain from eating, harvesting, selling, and buying shellfish products and Acetes sp. (small shrimps) from the affected bays until such time that the shellfish toxicity level has gone down below the regulatory level. Fish caught in these areas are safe for human consumption provided that these are fresh, washed and cooked thoroughly, according to the BFAR advisory. MindaNews with Sarwell Meniano of PNA

Initial police investigation showed that a piece of rope strapped around the cargo hold of the open back hauler truck snapped, causing the cases of beer to fall successively on the pavement. Traffic was reopened an hour later after volunteers cleared the highway of broken bottles. (PNA)
