Strike team eyed against import of foreign wastes THE Department of Finance (DOF) said on Thursday Secretary Carlos Dominguez III has directed Commissioner Rey Leonardo Guerrero of the Bureau of Customs (BOC) to look into the creation of a special strike team within the agency to guard against the entry of waste materials that other countries are attempting to dump in the Philippines.

Bishops to divest from ‘dirty energy’

By ROY LAGARDE CBCPnews

THE country’s Catholic bishops have agreed to divest from “dirty energy” sources such as coal-fired power plants.

The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) is the world’s most recent church institution to declare it will divest from fossil fuel.

The decision was reached over the weekend as the bishops gather for their plenary assembly in Manila.

Fr. Edwin Gariguez, Caritas Philippines executive secretary, said See DIVEST, page 11

issued the directive during a recent DOF Executive Committee (Execom) meeting after Guerrero reported that he had called on his counterparts in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to strengthen the law enforcement capabilities of the organization’s member-states not only in the campaign against drug trafficking, but also in preventing the region from being a dumping

ground for hazardous materials.

Guerrero said his fellow customs officials from the ASEAN member-states reacted positively to his proposal.

In response, Dominguez said: “It’s time we put up something like an environmental unit in the Customs (bureau) to really act on this garbage issue.”

Guerrero also told Dominguez that other ASEAN member-states

have thanked the Philippines during the 28th meeting of the ASEAN Directors-General of Customs held at the Lao Republic for setting the example in the region when President Duterte stood pat in his decision to compel Canada to immediately repatriate 69 containers of trash dumped in Manila six years ago.

After Canada failed to meet the original May 15 deadline

set by President Duterte for the return of the imported wastes, the government recalled its ambassador and consuls to Canada to demonstrate its “diminished diplomatic relations” with the North American country.

This action prompted Canada to move its earlier June 30 commitment in repatriating the waste to the Philippines’ revised See WASTE, page 11

Think-tank backs CBCP position on clean energy AN environmental thinktank on Thursday supported the stand of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to “divest dirty energy” sources such as coal.

The Center for Energy, Ecology, and Development (CEED), a group advocating for the use of renewable energy, lauded the efforts of the bishops’ group to protect the environment.

“The moral leadership of the Church lends great weight to our cause for a coal-free Philippines,” CEED executive director Gerry Arances in a statement.

DAVAO City--Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio hit Anak Kalusugan partylist Representative Mike Defensor

for releasing a text message that he claimed was from the presidential daughter and dared him to drop the name of the person spreading the “disinformation.”

Community support crucial in crime prevention – PNP 10 CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY -- Police regional office Northern Mindanao underscored the importance of community support to help prevent crimes and terrorism threats in celebration of Police Community Relations (PCR) month.

In an episode of Talakayan sa PIA, Police

Lieutenant Colonel Elias Hampac, Officer in Charge of the Regional Community Affairs and Development Division said this is an opportune time to strengthen the community participation in crime prevention.

COCPO implements 95-5 distribution. This means 95% deployment and 5% administrative function to ensure police is present in every area.

The police have also developed crime statistics.

They can now determine where crime usually happens, when, the kind of victims and modus operandi,

among others. Hortillosa said, this is to also study and provide the kind of intervention applicable to these incidents.

But there are also criminals who are smart and can still find an area to commit crime where police are not there.

This is the time, Hortillosa said the police need force multipliers and the community itself.

said Armida.

After availing the program, the couple decided to put up a printing shop. Using the skills they acquired from the training, they were able to start the business with a registered name “Mondeng Printing Station”. It started on November 2017 and is located at Purok Santa Maria, Dumanlas, Buhangin, Davao City. Among the ser-

vices they offered include; printing of t-shirt, mugs, tarpaulin, calling cards, invitation cards and certificates.

They also make key chains, refrigerator magnets, and other souvenir items. Presently, they earned a monthly income of P25,000.00 which greatly helped in sustaining their daily needs.

With the couple’s passion in layouting and designing, they were able to establish the business despite the short computer training.

“We are determined to learn and eager to put up our own printing shop. Our IT training with OWWA has helped us attain our plan

and able to earn income through our skills. We are very grateful for the rare opportunity given to us

by OWWA. They are the instrument of our success,” Armida said. She added that, in order to succeed, one must not stop learning. She encouraged other returning OFWs and their families to avail of the IT training program of OWWA. “If you are willing and determined to learn then success will follow. It is important that what you have learned, put it in practice like what we did. We are also willing to share what we have learned.” she ended.

Housekeeper turns Entrepreneur

A former Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) who worked as a housekeeper in Jordan has established her own printing shop after availing the 10 days Information Technology (IT) training of the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA). It is a basic computer literacy program to upgrade the IT skills of OFWs and their families.

Armida Mosquite, 36 years old, returned to the Philippines some time in 2006. When she learned that OWWA offered free IT traing for OFWs and their families, she and her husband availed of the pro-

Fostering the Grassroots thru Science, Technology and Innovation LOCAL challenges and opportunities vary from one community to another thus it is necessary to generate niche-adapted solutions capitalized on the local knowledge and resources.

These solutions, dubbed as Grassroots Innovation, are innovative products, process or technology created by people from the countryside, usually due to necessity or challenges.

Grassroots Innovation (GI) is still not well recognized and supported at the national level which calls for its grand scaling thus the proposed Grassroots Innovation Program in the Philippines. The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Region XI, the Technology Application and Promotion Institute (TAPI) and United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP), will be launching the Grassroots Innovation for Inclusive Development Program and

Forum on July 20, 2019 at the Hotel Jen Manila by Shangri-la, Pasay City.

International and renowned speakers from India and Malaysia will share their success stories on GI and will tackle the following three topics for discussion: What is GIs and the nexus between GIs and inclusive development?; Models of GIs in India and Malaysia; and the Proposed Grassroots Innovation Program in the Philippines.

This aims to create awareness on the relevance of GIs and strengthen the network of advocates/ experts in the Philippines and in Asia supporting the GRIND Framework.

“We didn’t have any idea on computer applications, but with our strong desire to learn we were able to complete the training. Now that we know how to use the internet, everytime we need to know about designing and layouting, we spared time to research in Google,”

Picture Feng Shui IF a picture paints a thousand words as a song goes, it depicts luck or bad luck too in feng shui!

So maniniyots or photographers beware!

So do subjects or models or selfyists!!!

Here are key dont’s when it comes to bad Feng Shui pictures: - never human subjects in threes, as the second one or middle person will die soon - never in fours as 4 means death - never a mirror behind the subject asirrors are ghost

traps thereby a ghost image might appear!

- never against the sunlight as it eclipses then subject(s) aura - never with a lion or tiger or maneating animal subject or background be it a live one or sculpture as well as picture too unless the subject is a politician (it can take subject’s life) Next is how to put pictures luckily: - all pictures of water or with water to any left side wall as you enter the main door of office or home. Else infidelity will be attracted

for all in that place!

- the same, water pictures should not be in master bedroom as it causes financial drains - water pictures must not be placed in kitchen where it will face stove or cooking appliances. This fire facing water situation leads to conflicts and disharmony barring progress and prosperity in the place - water pictures for the same reasons must not be above or below any cooking appliances or chimney fire So there remember too water means money so never

Master Aldric

burn it symbolically or let it flow out as financial drain by putting water pictures infront if any entrance or exit doors let alone window!

So there, indeed you can visualize and harness luck with success with the proper Feng Shui picturing.

Happy picture taking with a winning eye with going or getting lucky in mind everyone! Aim right and good luck!

The CYNOSURE

Extending the term of solons get flak

CONGRESSMAN Peter Cayetano wants an extension of the terms of elected Congressmen to another one year. Under the present setup, the elected Congressman has a three-year term in office.

Cayetano, chosen as the House Speaker (under a sharing scheme with another Congressman in Mindoro), argued that a three-year term in office is a short period for a working Congressman.

“The first year in office is basically spent on orientation on various house rules - a time to get to know each other well,” Cayetano said.

He said that the second year in office focuses on election promises, legislations and projects for the constituents.

According to Cayetano, the third year in office, the last year for a three-year period term, is for the implementation of the various projects and the passage of various legislative bills.

Under a three-year term,

the remaining one-year term is not enough for the completion of projects and the approval of various important legislative bills.

In contrast to the threeyear term in office, a fouryear term would mean the completion of projects and the passage of proposed House Bills into laws.

For the Filipino voters, Cayetano’s proposed extension of the present three-year term in office to a four-year term is unacceptable.

After all, the Congressman has an option to be twice reelected into office.

Every term has a three-year term period. Thus, if the Congressman has a sterling performance, they could be easily elected into office for a total period of nine years.

Of course, we are talking about deserving Congressmen who are reelected into office. We are not talking about Congressmen who were voted and reelected because of massive vote buying.

In fact, the three-year term is too short for deserving Congressmen. On the contrary, the three-year term is too long for useless and inept Congressmen who were elected only because of massive vote-buying.

The comparative observation between the deserving and undeserving Congressmen who were elected into office could be sweeping.

However, it is worth a challenge to examine and evaluate the performance and output of elected Congressmen in many Congressional districts in the country. A bet on this challenge would prove that most, if not, half of the elected Congressmen in the country are not worthy to have a seat in Congress.

Now, Cayetano wants the term of office of the “scams” in Congress to be extended for another year?

Cayetano’s proposal is preposterous – it is an insult to the intelligence of the Filipinos.

Cris Diaz

Anyway, Cayetano is joking! For Cayetano, it would be advantageous for his term to be extended because it would also mean an extension of his term as the Speaker of the House.

By the way, Cayetano was elected Speaker of the House as a compromise to end the squabbling among members of the Lower House who were eyeing the coveted post.

What is there being the Speaker of the House? The House Speaker is co-equal with the powers and influence of the Senate President.

An election, as Speaker of the House, is the culmination of the dream of every Congressman. It is likened to the members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) whose lifetime dream is seeing the star falling on their shoulders.

Think A Minute

Courageous compassion

THINK a minute.

In 2007 an amazing woman was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, but sadly then died at the age of 98. Her name was Irena Sendler from Warsaw, Poland.

During World War II Irena worked as a plumbing and sewer specialist in the Jewish ghetto of Warsaw.

But her real purpose and mission was to try to save as many Jews as possible from the Nazis who were starting to mass murder thousands, and ultimately six million, Jews in the Holocaust.

Irena smuggled babies out of the ghetto in the bottom of her toolbox; and for the larger kids she had a burlap sack in the back

of her truck.

By the end of the war Irena had smuggled out and saved approximately 2,500 babies and children!

She also helped rescue 500 adults.

When Irena was eventually caught by the Nazis, they broke both her legs and arms. But she wisely kept a record of the names of all the children she had saved in a glass jar which she buried in her back yard.

After the war was over she tried to locate any parents who may have survived to reunite them with their children whom she had rescued.

Of course, most of the parents had been murdered in the Nazi death camps; so

Irena placed these orphan children into foster families who adopted them.

Irena Sendler conquered evil with compassion and courage.

Throughout her life she told people: “Keep bringing light to the world…and never stop repairing broken hearts and lives.”

There are people all around us—in our workplace, school, neighborhood, village, or even in our own family—who are hurting and need our compassion and courage to help them.

God has placed you there to be His heart and hands extended to them to help change their life—and to fight against injustice,

Jhan Tiafau Hurst

abuse, neglect, rejection and discouragement with His powerful weapons of grace and truth. Nothing can truly heal and change hearts except God’s real love and light which only Jesus Christ can give.

Won’t you ask Him to take full charge of your heart, so He can begin filling you with His compassion and courage to comfort and help those you know are suffering?

Just think a minute.

Marriage is a legal, not moral issue: lawyer

By CHRISTINE CUDIS PNA

THE fight to legalize samesex marriage in the Philippines has always been put to uncertainty due to the dominance of Catholic belief in the country and the legislation.

But with President Rodrigo R. Duterte’s open mind on the issue, the drive to push for its passage is back on course.

Lawyer Jesus Nicardo Falcis III, a self-identified gay man, said the Lesbian, Gays, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) community counters the argument of conservative faith as they are pushing for legality more than morality.

“We have no legal rights

Lawyer Jesus Nicardo Falcis III (Screengrab from from PNA Pros and Cons episode)

for LGBT couples; on con- years, decades until death jugal ownerships. ‘Yung may naipundar na ‘yun sila partners na nagsama for pero pagka-namatay ‘yung

isa, sa mga kamag-anak na posibleng nagtakwil sa kanya pa ang makakatanggap ng properties na nakapangalan sa kanya (Those who have been together for years, decades until death have acquired properties together but in cases of one’s sudden death, his relatives, who likely ostracized and despised him, are the ones receiving the property in his name, not his partner),” he said during the Philippine News Agency’s Pros and Cons episode on same-sex union.

Under the law, in cases of death without the last will and testament, the wife, ascendants, and descendants will receive the inheritance.

But without any marriage certificates to show,

no matter how long a gay couple has been together and no matter how much money the other person in the relationship has poured in for the property if it is under the deceased name, they will not get any share.

This is the same for SSS and GSIS beneficiaries -- the primary is the legitimate dependent spouse, secondary are parents.

Initially, the lawyer insisted on a revisitation of Family Code’s limit of marriages to heterosexual couples. But through time, Congress resorted to another solution to address the issue since marriage, according to the Constitution, is inviolable. It is also the main argument of those who oppose the proposal.

Bataan first District Representative Geraldine Roman, the country’s first transwoman legislator and a supporter of the same-sex civil union bill, has said that the only difference between a civil union and marriage is that marriage has a “religious connotation”.

House Bill 6595, which legalizes civil unions and was filed by former Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez at the House of Representatives, is the better option. Roman said they have all been advocating for this.

The same-sex civil union has Duterte’s nod because it “fixes the different aspects of the union of those of the same sex,” said former Palace spokesperson, lawyer Harry Roque. (PNA)

NAAWAN, Misamis Oriental--Now, we understand why Chinese vessels crowd and are aggressively fishing in the country’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ): they are vested the license to do so emanating from President Duterte’s secret fishing deal with President Xi Jinping as early as 2016.

In forging the verbal agreement, which allows the Chinese to fish in the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone (EEZ), the President eschews the common meaning, usage or understanding of the word “exclusive” which refers to something unshared, sole, complete, and – in the issue of EEZ, absolute right to use, exploit and develop the resources in the said area. Such right is sovereign that the country possesses in its exclusive economic zone under the United Nations Convention on the Laws of the Sea (UNCLOS).

The EEZ is not, however, a territorial water where the country exercises sovereignty – the absolute power and authority to govern or impose its will in the area.

Under UNCLOS, foreign countries are entitled to certain freedoms such as navigation, overflight, and to lay submarine cables and pipes and such legal activities related to said

freedoms within the EEZ .The building of artificial islands and the exploitation of the resources beneath the seabed are reserved, however, to the coastal state with the EEZ sovereign right.

No matter the conflicting opinions, the deal has already assumed the mantle of national policy because the Chinese are undeniably fishing in the place and they have not been stopped by government authorities.

This tolerance reflects the intent of the covenant.

Now that the secret is already made public by the President himself, it behooves for Congress, particularly the Senate to demand formal transmission of the agreement for its review to determine merits and to approve or reject it. If rejected, the

Executive Department has no recourse but to stop the Chinese from fishing in our EEZ, mandating the AFP to do it. It has to act urgently and not wait for our fisheries resource depleted and ultimately destroyed by Chinese bullies.

The Executive’s long disgusting negligence and inaction on trespasses in our domain should stop. The defeatist perception that our security forces have no match to the Chinese’, and any move to protect our interest is suicide, should now end.

Why, should our military force protect the interest of the country only from weak aggressors?

If we continue to hold on to a negative attitude, we soon will lose See YOURS, page 11

Relampagos called a meeting with quarry owners who are operating in the city to solve issues relating to barangay road damages where most of it according to reports, were caused by their heavy vehicles.

The chief executive reminded them that heavy vehicles should primarily pass along the national highway and as much as possible, refrain from operating during rainy days.

In addition, OIC-City Engineer Jun Rabanos suggested that the quarry owners should fill-in sand and gravel on the said roads if there are damages caused by their trucks. The owners

DAVAO CITY--Vice Mayor Sebastian “Baste” Duterte has called on the youth to be politically active in order to participate more in the affairs of the city.

“They should limit the use of social media and playing online games for they should know what’s happening in the city. They might want to enter politics in the near future,” he added.

Davao traffic cops charge 104 drunk drivers

By RHODA GRACE SARON and CHE PALICTE PNA

DAVAO CITY -- The Davao City Police Office’s (DCPO) -Traffic Group bared that 104 traffic violators are facing charges for violation of the city’s Anti-drug and Drunk Driving Law. Lt. Col. Nolan Raquid, the DCPO Traffic Group chief, said Wednesday the number of apprehensions was the result of the city’s intensified campaign against drunk driving.

“We are equipped with breath analyzers and each police station in the city had their breath analyzers too,” Raquid said.

However, he also said vehicular accidents registered a decrease since February, while helmet law violators reached to 9,081 individuals. Also for other traffic BASTE FACES THE MEDIA.

Former baker in Qatar establishes his own bakeshop DAVAO CITY -- “Forget the risk and take the fall. If it’s what you want then it’s worth it all,” this adage inspires a distressed overseas Filipino worker who establishes and expands his bakeshop after availing the Balik Pinas!

Balik Hanapbuhay! (BPBH) Program of the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA).

BPBH is a package of livelihood support/assistance intended to provide immediate relief to returning member-OFWs (distressed/ displaced) amounting to a maximum Php 20,000.00 as start up or additional capital for a livelihood project.

Rotche Naval, 38 years old, who worked as a baker

See REMINDS, page 9

in Qatar is one of the successful beneficiaries of the program. Aside from his desire to provide his family a better future, Rotche applied for work overseas because he wants to put up a small bakeshop. “It was really my plan to have my own bakeshop that’s why I worked hard. With hard work and dedication, my dream has realized.” he said.

Prior to his work in Qatar, he worked as a driver in Saudi Arabia where he was able to buy some baking supplies and equipment as his investments after completing a two-year contract.

To realize his dream, he applied as a baker in Qatar and was deployed on June

15, 2016.

Unfortunately, he was not able to finish his contract due to poor working conditions. He also got sick.

Through the help of the Philippine Overseas Labor Office, he was repatriated on January 12, 2017.

As a displaced overseas Filipino worker, Rotche qualified to avail of the Balik Pinas! Balik Hanapbuhay! Program and received P20,000.00 in October 2017.

Said amount was used for the purchase of additional baking supplies and equipment. He started the business just at their home in Brgy. Igpit, Digos City and later transferred to a more accessible place in Digos

City Public Market.

“While working in Saudi Arabia, I spared a little amount from my salary to purchase oven, dough roller, trays and other bakery equipment so that I can start my bakeshop little by little,” he said.

Prior to his employment abroad, Rotche worked as a baker in one of the famous bakeries in Digos City. His experience in the bakeshop industry motivates him to pursue his application for overseas work. “Though I was not lucky with my last employment abroad, I took it as my big break because I was able to enhance my skills as a baker. My experience See BAKER, page 9

723 were apprehended.

Raquid said that the common traffic violations recorded include the disregard for traffic signs or crossing while the red light is on, illegal parking, and non-wearing of helmet.

“So this is not only an effort of the traffic group but the consolidated data including the accomplishments of other police stations of the DCPO,” Raquid said.

Meanwhile, records from the 12 police stations here showed that reckless imprudence resulting in homicide registered six incidents in the month of May and seven in June.

Reckless imprudence resulting in serious physical injury recorded 17 incidents on May and 16 in June, while reckless imprudence resulting in minor physical injuries about 134 cases were recorded in May, and 98 in June. (PNA)

No one hurt as grenade explodes in Tagum residential area

By CHE PALICTE PNA

DAVAO CITY -- A hand grenade exploded inside a residential compound owned

by Fredelyn Aregoso Cuba in Barangay Visayan Village, Tagum City on Tuesday evening.

Captain Anjanett Tirador, Tagum City Police Office spokesperson, said nobody was inside the house at the time of the incident.

“There were no reported casualties except damage of the sliding door glass and other parts outside the house,” Tirador said, adding the house was secured by a concrete fence and steel gate.

She said investigators are still verifying if the said act is linked to the investment

firm named Project Limited Company headed by Freddie Aregoso, the father of Fredelyn Cuba.

The firm is said to be offering 500 percent monthly returns of the amount invested by the investors but has since stopped operation along with almost a dozen other investment firms in Tagum City.

“We will investigate if the incident is connected to the said firm,” the police official said.

Tirador said a post-blast investigation conducted by the Explosion and Ordinance Division (EOD) resulted in the recovery of pieces of evidence such as safety lever, fragments of Mk2 hand grenade body and fragments of a detonator. (PNA)

Significance of Promoting and Arrested... from page 6 Supporting Waste Segregation by a PDEA Agent who acted

By DINA B. RAMOS Teacher III Iligan City National High School

Waste management or waste disposal are the activities and actions required to manage waste from its inception to its final disposal. This includes the collection, transport, treatment and disposal of waste, together with monitoring and regulation of the waste management process. Because of the rapid growth of the globalization it results to an industrialization of our nation and we cannot denied the fact that we are embracing the advancement of the constant change. Thus, it results to a massive effect in our environment and day to day we’ve seen the real picture of its effects leads to an environmental problem.

The chaos brought disasters in our communities, both in rural and urban places even in our neighboring countries.

The world mainly focus on how to resolved the growing problem and our country is one the countries producing plastics as reported on the fleeing news on air. Now, waste management practices are different for different countries of the world be it developed or developing nations. Though waste management practices are not uniform but having this goal and flatworms of saving our world is what matters most.

In line with the environmental problem, Iligan City National High School under the leadership of our school principal Rex L. Razo promote and support with action about waste segregation program of the city and DepEd inside and outside the premises of the school as part of the community combating on resolving the said matter. And now the problem of waste management is continuously escalading and one of the food service establishments that generate large amount of waste every day is school canteen.

Foodservice providers usually follow set of rules in solid waste management. This includes collection, storage, disposal, and transportation of the waste produced. Consequently, the awareness and attitude of these foodservice providers in waste management to their waste management has an impact in their waste disposal practices.

The program aims to assess the

influence of their awareness and attitude in waste management to their waste disposal practices.

The school already implementing a zero waste program as mandated by the school principal Rex L. Razo and plan for better training program and monitoring in waste management systems especially in the foodservice providers. Many students are neither conscious of the volume of waste that they accumulate individually in their classrooms, nor aware of the cumulative impact that it has in the overall waste stream. Failure to sustainably dispose of food waste significantly increases our environmental footprint.

Through waste segregation program of the city and DepEd. Along with this, Iligan City National High School strengthening the platform “ Basura Mo, Sagot Mo” Helped to educate students on the importance of proper disposal and segregation of waste produced within the school and build support for a future school program. Unfortunately, there is still a lack of knowledge and understanding of the system among students and areas of the process that require improvement, so the school principal and the foodservice provider spent time addressing this issues and finding the possible solutions for them.

The solution is not only using simple information alone to create behavioral change, but is also challenging the habits of improper waste segregation and disposal. The other solutions are meant to acknowledge the basic aspect of bringing students own trash bags were they can bring their own waste like water plastic bottles, cellophanes and used papers and most likely discouraging the usage of the mentioned products. The school foodservice providers, other areas and the school principal always taught about this important matter and through visual mediums along with doing the promotional advert for this particular solution. As a summary, the waste segregation program is the visible solution to alleviate the inevitable problem of our environment by working hand in hand.

he added.

There are many potential source of conflicts in the community but before they become violent incidents, police should already find a way to resolve such issues.

Under CSOP, Elango said, our police should already get involved.

Police should coordinate with the barangay and initiate finding solutions to the problem.

In the past, with the old policy, Community Oriented Policy System (COPS), the mandate was if there was a crime, then the police must be quick to respond. It was reactionary, Elango said.

of NAPOLCOM, is not just to take away the opportunity of criminals to commit the crime but ultimately take away their desire to commit such crime.

The desire to commit the crime should be eliminated, Elango said.

He explained, the effect of police visibility is just to delay the commission of crime but the desire of the person to commit the crime is still there.

In terms of community involvement in attaining peace and order, Elango said the people are the police first. In the beginning, the community were the first police, to take care of the community.

Now, we are professionalizing police force, Atty.

Elango said.

Police qualification standard is high and competitive.

It’s not who you know but what you have. The more eligibilities you have, the more credentials you have, if you have high grades in college, that will count because there is a ranking system in the recruitment, he said.

To enter police force, one must not only be fit physically but also have a clean record even in the barangay.

Police job is exciting, challenging and rewarding, Atty. Elango explained. But when you enter, one of your feet is already on the grave.

It’s difficult to enter but easy to be relieved from the job.

MANILA -- Mindanao remains a safe place to visit, a tourism official said on Wednesday.

Department of Tourism (DOT) Assistant Secretary Roberto Alabado III made this remark after President Rodrigo R. Duterte warned of “very dangerous times ahead” particularly in Sulu and Basilan Islands.

Alabado said the agency will always abide with the President, however, noted that there were several areas in Mindanao that are not “troubled”.

“Regional offices (in Mindanao) are doing good efforts introducing all of the good parts of what the destinations have to offer,” Alabado said in an economic briefing in Malacañan Palace.

“If you go to Zamboanga, I don’t think it’s a troubled

Alabado, meanwhile, emphasized that regional offices are also doubling efforts to change the perception of a Mindanao that has been under martial rule since the May 2017 Marawi

siege. “(It’s) doubled because we are working on changing a perception. That’s why we are here to show you what is actually real on the ground,” See SAFE, page 11

Bill...

from page 10

Congress is gained through political maneuvering, influence peddling with the power that be and offers on a silver platter.

Why interested in the Speakership? Imagine that the approved budget for 2019 is 3.7 T. How much is allocated for the House Speaker is the bone of contention. Undoubtedly, the Office of the House Speaker gets a sizeable percentage of the country’s approved budget.

There is no point of disclosing where the budget for the Speaker goes. A hint: Asks about how the intelligence fund of the City Mayors is spent. Then, one will have a pretty good idea why Congressmen fight for the speakership. – Email reactions/comments: crisguardian@yahoo.com

“Masyadong maliit ang sahod nila kumpara sa laki ng responsibilidad nila sa mga mag-aaral. Apart from this salary increase, I also propose to provide medical allowance, magna carta bonus, and support in the form of additional allowances and remuneration.”

“The government should not only focus on improving school facilities,” he stressed. “We should also pay attention to the welfare of our teachers, who serve as the core of the education system.”

Zubiri is hopeful that the bill will proceed with minimal hiccups, as he has already gathered support for it from some of his fellow senators. “We have already the commitment of many from page 1 senators, including the new the dioceses would insenators,” he assured. stead place its money in renewable sources of energy.

Friday, July 12, 2019 bishops of Belgium, Ireland and Australia in the global campaign.

In recent months, over 120 Catholic institutions around the world have already stopped on investing in companies that produce destructive energy sources.

Collective action Bishop Gerardo Alminaza of San Carlos said there needs for a “collective action” among bishops to address the problem.

He said the plan underscored that the environmental issue is increasingly seen by church leaders as a deeply moral concern.

“We can’t clearly stand for renewable energy if our deposits are invested in such industries,” Alminaza said.

Asked if some church investments in mining are included, he said that “the general moral guideline is for any business that are against our core values and principles”.

“So, for instance, we collectively decide to pull out from a particular bank, it will have an impact,” Alminaza said.

According to him, initial discussions on divestment started during the bishops’ plenary meeting last January while “we are also dialoguing with each other”.

“We are waiting for the right time then we would come out with a pastoral letter as a body,” he said, assuring that bishops “are united in principles”.

Investments For its part, Caritas Philippines called on Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) to disclose where it invested their funds.

And should there be investments to dirty energy such as coal and extractive industries, it urged BPI “to right away divest them to support the renewable energy sector”.

Based on the financial disclosures in the Global Coal Exit List, BPI is among the top banks providing support through loans and underwritings to the country’s biggest coal developers.

Caritas executive secretary Fr. Edwin Gariguez said the church is now being challenged to fully commit to their advocacy for a coalfree Philippines.

“And the better way to do that then is to ensure that our money deposited to financial institutions are not used to fund dirty energy and other extractives,” he said.

Campaign launched The church officials made the statement during the launching of a campaign for clean and affordable electricity for consumers through key policy reforms.

The “Malinis at Murang Kuryente” campaign will cascade through all dioceses and parishes, schools and religious groups to put pressure to financial institutions to divest from coal and invest to clean energy.

Gariguez stressed that Caritas’ development funds are raised to uplift the lives and dignity of the poor and

the vulnerable.

“Having them invested in coal and other extractive industries is one way of killing the people we are mandated to protect.

We cannot allow that from happening,” he added.

May 30 deadline.

Other ASEAN countries like Malaysia and Cambodia are also working to have wastes dumped in their countries returned to Canada.

“Malaysia was thanking the Philippines for setting the example, this problem about the wastes, because now it has come to the consciousness of the international community, this garbage problem,” Guerrero said during the Execom meeting.

Guerrero said as a result of President Duterte’s tough stand on the issue, he has received reports that plans to have other shipments of wastes transported to the country have now been scuttled.

Dominguez said the strike team that he wants at the BOC will be akin to a special environmental strike force team that will be activated to guard the entry of hazardous materials in the country.

Beating the deadline set by the government, the 69 containers of waste from Canada mislabeled by a private importer as recyclable materials and dumped in the Philippines six years ago were finally shipped out of the country last May 31.

The South Korean government has also committed to help ship back to its country some 5,176 metric tons of waste materials illegally imported here last year and currently stored at the PHIVIDEC Industrial Authority premises in Misamis Oriental. (PR/ PNA)

“If his murder is determined to be connected to his work, Dizon would be the 13th journalist killed under the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte and the 186th since 1986,” it added.

In a statement, Brigada Group said it “condemns in strongest terms the killing of Eduardo ‘Kabrigada Ed’ Dizon, anchorman of 97.5 Brigada News FM Kidapawan, in the wake of his relentless exposé against unscrupulous individuals and organizations involved in illegal undertakings.”

“Brigada Group sees the attack on Mr. Dizon, a veteran and seasoned broadcast journalist who was an organic employee of Brigada, as an attempt to silence Brigada media and its news personalities from their exposé and position

on prevailing issues,” the statement said.

Dizon was a scholar at Mindanao State University in Marawi City where he took up Bachelor of Science in International Relations.
