‘Black Friday’ drive vs. TRAIN law, oil price hike By CRIS DIAZ Executive Editor

CAGAYAN de Oro City-Various militant groups yesterday launched the “Black Friday,” a signature campaign, in this seaport capital of Northern Mindanao to dramatize their protests against the un-

relenting increased of oil products, and the scrapping of the TRAIN law. TRAIN stands for Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion, a tax reform program that the government has implemented this year. The transport group lead by the militant Solidarity of Transport in Region 10

(STAREX)-Piston is also flexing muscles in a series of protest next week as another round of oil price hike took effect Tuesday. “For the past two weeks, the pump prices of oil for both diesel, gasoline, and kerosene products climbed by as much as P 2.00,” Ringo Lago, the spokesperson of

Starex- Piston in Northern Mindanao, said. Lago said that another oil price hike took effect Tuesday at P 0.65 per liter for gasoline, P 0.35 per liter for diesel, P 0.45 per liter for kerosene. Since May 22, 2018, the last oil price hike was pegged at P 1.15 per liter for diesel,

P 1.60 per liter for gasoline and P 1.00 per liter for kerosene, he said. He said that various transport groups in Cagayan de Oro City condemned the series of oil price hike while urging the Duterte administration to repeal the “oil deregulation law.” Lago said that the gov-

ROSARIO, Agusan del Sur--A mining company here has clarified they are not engaged in illegal labor contracting scheme contrary to the report released by the Department of Labor and Employment. “It’s fake news,” said lawyer Raul Villanueva, president of Philsaga Mining Corporation, as he debunked the report that 6,524 workers are affected by the company’s supposedly labor only contracting system, saying the figures were even bloated. Villanueva questioned DOLE’s report saying their company has only employed a total of 4,743

ernment should adopt measures to cushion the impact of oil price hike like the creation of the Oil Price Stabilization Fund (OPSF) in the 1970s that served as a buffer fund when oil prices suddenly climbed in the world market. The administration of

Not anti-administration

A WELL-MEANING friend asked me when I was in Davao City days ago why I am an avid anti-Duterte, his description. I p ainst a k ing ly ex plained to him I’m not an anti-Duterte or antiDuterte administration. There’s a whale of difference between the two, and in both I said I am not. In fact, a cursory reading of what I have been expressing in this corner would show I am for his success, hence my boldness in saying here what I believe the obstacles that he himself had put up to ensure his failure. A leader, as what I love to say, is he who is tasked by God or a higher power to liberate the masses of the people from their suffering and misery and have them brought to their own Promised Land where they can enjoy and savor fullness and abundance of life. Familiar? Yes, of course, for this was what God had commanded Moses to do. Liberate the Israelites from the bondage of slavery in Egypt that is causing so

much suffering and misery on them and have them brought to the Promised Land. Humans are supposed to enjoy full and abundant life. Sadly, they are not. Greed by the powerful and the mighty in society reduced them into becoming slaves to poverty hence the concept that poverty is deprivation and never a choice. In fact poverty is manifested by the people’s inability to have a choice, a choice for the better and for a better life. Fullness and abundance of life is measured by the people’s ability to eat three square meals a day and meet their other human needs. Take note of the word need as contrasted with desire, the human desires. Food is assured when big tracts of land are dedicated to farming. For farming to ensure food security, a concern of the government, it must never be subsistence in nature. The surefire formula for failure in assuring food

security for all is to let the farmers engage in subsistence farming which is actually the type of farming being undertaken by Filipino farmers since time immemorial. No wonder fo o d is ironically scarce hence expensive in our country, a basically agriculture-based economy. Sadly, in this regard, p a s t a n d p re s e nt a d ministrations, including Duterte’s, have not made any headway in addressing the problem of food scarcity in our country. This is proved that policy mandating a percentage of our rice requirement, a basic staple food to the Filipinos, had to be imported from neighboring countries. It’s truly mind-boggling why this is actually happening, the government’s inaction in improving local agricultural productivity. But this problem is truly solvable. For farming to succeed in its role of ensuring food security for all and as the source

Jesse E.L. Bacon II

of raw materials for industries to churn out into finished goods, big tracts of land must be dedicated to farming. This is possible by eliminating current agrarian reform practices of simply changing the owner’s name of the land of the big landowner to the lowly tenant. The model is the farming tradition among Cordillerans in the north. They always go into communal farming because they do not believe that anyone of them can own the land rather it is the land that owns them. Why Duterte and his administration not headed toward this direction is his to answer. But pointing this fact out is certainly not being anti-Duterte or antiDuterte administration.

Think A Minute

Don’t follow your conscience THINK a minute. Some young children were asked this question: “What is a conscience?” A six-year-old boy said he thought it was “the bad feeling you get when you kick girls and puppies.” A nine-year-old said your conscience is “a voice inside that says ‘No’ when you want to beat up your little brother.” A guy was giving his friend advice on how to make a decision. He said: “You’ve got to follow your conscience. It’s like the little man inside you telling you what’s right and wrong. Just do whatever your little man tells you to do.” His friend answered: “No, that won’t work for me. My little man’s an idiot!” It’s like the popular song about a person who’s com-

mitting adultery that says: “How can this love be so wrong if it feels so right? If lovin’ you is wrong, I don’t want to be right!” Our feelings and conscience are NOT always a good guide to show us what’s right and wrong. Since everyone one of us has the tendency to be selfcentered in one way or another, we’ve damaged and confused our conscience. So we often tell ourselves that certain wrong things are right so we won’t feel guilty about doing them. A person can be very wrong even though he doesn’t feel wrong or guilty. For example: Adolph Hitler had 6 million Jews tortured and murdered just because of their race! But he did not show any guilt for all the evil he did. Does that

Turning point

mean he was not guilty of all those wrongs, just because he didn’t feel guilty? Of course not! You and I can tell a small lie, cheat on our taxes, school exams or customs duty, or get away with a little stealing. But that does not mean it’s right, or that we will never be caught and punished. The fact is we’re still guilty of doing those wrong things, even if everybody else is doing it. So because we cannot depend on our conscience or feelings every time, we need Jesus Christ to be our guide Who can clearly show us what’s right and wrong every day. Today, even though you have not felt very guilty, you now understand that you are guilty of living your own way. You know that

Jhan Tiafau Hurst

you’ve done wrong things: wrong thoughts, words, and actions. Maybe they were even things you thought were not wrong because many other people do them. Yet the good news is Jesus Christ will still forgive you and start changing your life if you let Him. So why not ask Him to take full control of your life and help you start living His way every day? It’s the way you can finally have real peace in your conscience, and the satisfaction of living the right, successful way. Just Think a Minute.

The Falling Ax in the Mind

NAAWAN, Misamis Oriental--Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno of the judiciary department of the Republic was axed. Out. Is the President that scared, that the ax may next fall on him that he has to secure the assurance and support of no less than Communist China’s president Xi Jinping? But who is really after the President’s head? Is there a group with enough power and capacity to do it? However he talks, there’s no denying that PRRD is an

accomplished strategist. He has packed Congress with his lapping dogs; thanks to the revival of the corruption maker pork barrel. The Supreme Court has started wagging its tail, too. He has secured the loyalty of the armed security forces of the State by raising their salaries and other emoluments heaven high beyond anybody’s expectation. Meanwhile, the political opposition looks emaciated and does not have the capacity to clip the excesses around it or has shown any

meaningful activity to prove its worth. Indeed, it’s rightly called yellow. The Bangsamoro rebels have been quieted by an assurance of a grandiose self-rule via federalism. The NPA can only afford a mosquito-like disturbance here and there. The CIA won’t dare any external adventure to remove him with his goodvibes Trump around. The US won’t dare anything unless, of course, an intervention will greatly advance its own interest. It will not,

under present circumstances, when China is flexing its muscles in West Philippine Sea. A misstep that may lead to a confrontation is not worth anything. The threat of an arrest by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for his alleged crime against humanity will remain just that – a threat. An arrest will never happen. The ICC can’t even step a foot in Philippine soil to conduct on-site investigation on EJK; the minion of trolls will surely chase its See MIND, page 11

Duterte expected to sign Bangsamoro law July 23 By Carolyn O. Arguillas MindaNews

THE two houses of Congress will pass their respective versions of the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) before adjourning sine die on Wednesday, May 30, following an assurance Monday night from President Rodrigo Duterte that he would certify the bill as urgent on Tuesday, May 29. Duterte issued the certification, to “advance the creation of a new autonomous region in Muslim Mindanao” and while the passage of the BBL is now certain, what remains uncertain is what kind of Bangsamoro will come out of the two versions. Congress leaders who met with President Duterte in Malacanang Monday night said a bicameral conference committee will resolve conflicting provisions in their bills so the President can sign it into law on July 23, the same day he delivers his third State of the Nation Address. “It’s a great night for the Bangsamoro,” an ecstatic

Tawi-tawi Rep. Ruby Sahali wrote on her Facebook page late Monday night. “Alhamdulillah Bangsamoro , PRRD (President Duterte) will certify (as) urgent BBL tomorrow, tawfiq reigns in the heart of the men and women who are true to the quest of the Bangsamoro,” said Sahali, chair of the House Committee on Peace, Reconciliation and Unity, which, along with the committees on Local Government and Muslim Affairs, tackled the BBL. Maguindanao Rep. Bai Sandra Sema, Deputy Speaker for Mindanao, said “roller coaster ride but after meeting with President Digong, BBL will be certified as urgent.” “It’s another historic moment in our quest for peace and closure of the Bangsamoro Problem. We take the challenges, hardships, sacrifices one day at a time. Inch by inch, small victories will pave the way to our goal. Not perfect but something to start with. Along this journey are men and women who made great contributions to the stage we have reached now,”

she posted on FB. House Majority Leader Rodolfo Farinas said the President “did not impose anything on Congress, but granted our request to certify the bill as urgent in order for the HOR and the Senate to pass their respective BBL bills on second and third readings before we adjourn on Wednesday.” From the pronouncements of Sema, Sahali and Farinas, it appears that a major outcome of the meeting was the President’s certifying the bill as urgent, to do away with the three-day rule from the passage on second reading to the third reading. Congress, however, did not need to request the President for certification. The Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro signed by government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) in October 2012 provides that the draft BBL submitted by the Bangsamoro Transition Commission (BTC) “shall be certified as an urgent bill by the President.”

Eight contenders coming from the cities of Ozamiz (Gutokan Daku), Tangub (Pangabuan), Gingoog, Malaybalay and Valencia; Provinces of Misamis Oriental, Bukidnon and Camiguin are vying for the title.

Esquillo also said the mechanics of the evaluation shall consist of desk review of Barangay Nutrition Documents and validation of 0-59 month’s nutritional status

through weighing of children to determine the changes in their weight that leads to the improvement of their nutritional status specifically of underweight children. Information Management Officer, Flory Ann Dycoco said that the RNET is also looking forward for the assessment of skills of BNS in coordinating the Barangay Nutrition Program to various sectors at the grassroots level, efficiency in the delivery of nutrition services, initiatives in resource generation activities, innovativeness, and nutrition assessment, maintenance of updated records and timeliness of submission of nutrition

reports, among others.” Barangay Nutrition Scholar (BNS), Analisa Lumpayao also underwenr a written examination through a prescribed BNS questionnaire from NNCCentral Office which was administered by the evaluator. The BNS evaluation of brgy. Pangabuan was successful and positive with the support of their Barangay Captain, Norma Alnguhuro and members of the barangay nutrition committee.

number of deficiencies in the tax system to make it simpler, fairer, and more efficient. According to the Department of Finance (DOF), TRAIN pushed up inflation by only 0.4 percentage point, lower than its projected 0.7 percentage point. Other factors, such as the rise in global oil prices and the better collection of cigarette

excise taxes drove inflation to 4.5 percent in April this year. As a result of TRAIN, disposable income rose about 15 percent on average for wageearners as income tax rates were reduced, it added. DOF Secretar y Carlos Dominguez III has warned that suspending TRAIN law would derail the government’s

“Build, Build, Build” program which is meant to sustain the economy’s high-growth momentum. He said suspension would possibly even imperil the free tuition program in state universities and colleges; salary hike for police and military personnel; and conditional cash transfer program. (PNA)

State college in Davao Oriental now a university Friday, June 1, 2018

By Antonio L. Colina IV, MindaNews

AVAO City--President Rodrigo Duterte on Monday signed Republic Act 11033 converting the 28-year old Davao Oriental State College of Science and Technology (DOSCST) in Mati City, Davao Oriental into the Davao Oriental State University. This has brought to three the number of state-run universities in Davao Region. The other two universities in the region are University of Southeastern Philippines with main campus located in Barrio Obrero and two other campuses in Mintal, Davao City and Tagum City, and the University of the Philippines-Mindanao in Mintal in Davao City. RA 11033 was authored by Davao Oriental 2nd District Rep. Joel Mayo Z. Almario and Senator Joel Villanueva. “This is in recognition of the institution’s valuable role

by former Davao Oriental 2nd District representative Thelma Z. Almario. DOSCST was formerly the Mati Community College, a school that the former lawmaker founded in 1972 as mayor of Mati. The government also

Police to secure schools in Davao Region on first day of classes DAVAO CITY -- The Police Regional Office (PRO) 11 will deploy a “maximum number” of personnel to secure public and private schools in Davao Region for the opening of classes on June 4, PRO 11 spokesperson Chief Insp. Milgrace Driz said on Wednesday. Driz said that at least two police personnel will be assigned to each school to ensure the security of the students, but the number may increase depending on the need.

She said every police station will help in the cleanup drive and provide information on how criminals operate to strengthen the “Ligtas balik Eskwela.” Police will patrol the streets and help direct traffic, she said. “The PRO 11 has involved the communities in public safety awareness and security matters in order to strengthen the camaraderie and support among our stakeholders,” she said.

She said they have been directed by the PRO 11 director Manuel Gaerlan “to keep our alertness and vigilance to maintain peace and secure all students in all schools of the region.” She said they would put up police assistance desks and deploy explosive and ordnance units inside the schools. The Department of Education 11 has yet to release the number of enrollees in the region. (Antonio L. Colina IV/MindaNews)

KATIPUNAN Small Coconut Farmers Cooperative receives Solar Dryer from ACDIVOCA, an International Development NonProfit Organization based in Washington DC, USA. The project was formally turned over on May 30, 2018 at the Katipunan Coconut Farmers Cooperative Hall. City Mayor Engr. James G. Gamao thanked ACDI VOCA for the project that will aid in the rapid increase of production for the cooperative’s farmer members. To improve their facilities, the cooperative will soon receive thirty sacks of cement from the City Mayor. Further, Lisa Beltran, the manager of the cooperative, went back to memory lane during her speech. She mentioned that before the support from the ACDI VOCA in 2014 they had a slow production with only 200 members. Today, she proudly informed the audience that the cooperative recorded a total of 1.7 Million Net Surplus with 565 members. “Gihatagan sad mi ug trainings and seminars sama sa five-year strategic planning seminar (We were given trainings and serminars like the 5-year strategic planning seminar),” she added. On the other hand, the representative from the ACDI-VOCA expressed that great things happen if the members work together and anticipate greater things to happen in the future.

decisions about learning and work. “Access to information and guidance about the future careers available to young people is also an important factor in ensuring they are able to make the most of the opportunities that are available in the labor market today,” Sarcauga said. He also underscored the need to keep in step with ‘Industry 4.0’ or the Fourth Industrial Revolution which is defined by new technologies that combine the physical, digital, and biological worlds, such as artificial intelligence, 3D and 4D printing, quantum computing, and autonomous vehicles. “The onset of Industry 4.0 has made lives more convenient with the production of optimal goods

and the provision of quality service through an online transaction, such as paying bills, booking flights, shopping online,” he said. Alongside these changes, Sarcauga added, are the evolving skills requirements necessary to produce quality outputs and services that respond to the demands of the workplace and labor market.

TRAIN is needed to run country - Duterte By Jelly Musico

MANILA -- President Rodrigo R. Duterte has emphasized the need to implement the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law to raise more funds to run the country. “We have, all the while, (been) having problems, inflation is always there. There are many reasons, but also actually one of them is the TRAIN. But I need money to run the country,” Duterte said in his speech during Wednesday night’s Presidential Security Group (PSG) Change of Command ceremony at Malacañang Park. Some lawmakers call for suspension of the additional excise tax brought by TRAIN law implementation while others suggest postponing implementation of the entire law amid rising inflation rate. “If you do not give it, fine,” the President said.

DOLE bats for digital-ready workforce With the emerging types of jobs that require technologically-adaptive skills set, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) convened the career counselors and other human resource development professionals in the country to track an advocacy plan that will attune the jobseekers and workers to a digitally driven workforce. At the 4th National Career Advocacy Congress in Legazpi City over the weekend, DOLE Bicol Regional Director Ezequiel R. Sarcauga said the labor department’s career advocacy program will enable the youth to make sound See bats, page 9

For s ome ske pt i c s , Duterte reassured them that he would never allow anyone to use taxpayers’ money in illicit activities and personal interest. “Congress was quite skeptic that it will just end up in corruption. That’s why I said, if that is how you think of us, me, then forget it,” Duterte said. “I will look for other ways of doing it, maybe longer. But if they said I will steal, then I don’t need that. What I can say, no transaction of government ever reaches me,” he added. Despite the limited resources of government, Duterte expressed optimism that his administration would be able to bring modest improvement to the Filipinos’ lives. “We will maybe reach a modest improvement. I do not see any fantastic happening but with the limited resources of our country, President Rodrigo R.

House to impose tighter controls on quarrying The House committee on good government and public accountability chaired by Rep. Johnny Ty Pimentel terminated its deliberations pursuant to House Resolution 1505, seeking an inquiry, in aid of legislation, into quarrying activities in Nueva Ecija and other parts of the country. The resolution calls for an investigation on the alleged corruption and irregularities in the imposition, collection, and distribution of taxes and fees on the quarrying operations also in Cebu, Marinduque and Negros Oriental. Pimentel said the primary issue presented to the committee refers to the power of the local government to impose taxes and

fees on quarrying operations within its territorial jurisdiction. Under Republic Act 7160, also known as the Local Government Code of 1991, the local government units are authorized to impose taxes, fees and charges on sources of revenue. Pimentel said the LGUs are likewise authorized to issue quarry permits and the collection of quarry fees exclusively by the provincial government, although the tax revenues from quarrying operations are shared among local government units. During committee meetings, different opinions and contrasting interpretation of the laws applicable to quarSee controls, page 11

Sy added that the award will serve as the company’s inspiration to continue to be stewards of the communities where their malls operate. “We are proud of this project because we have shown the Filipino bayanihan at its best. We have people working together to uplift the lives of our countrymen and through their determination to get back on their feet, they have achieved what seemed to be a daunting task of not only recovering from a tragedy but making it an opportunity to live better.

investigators away. There is nothing around to fear then. So what is the Time’s strongman afraid of? If there’s none, then it is fear itself, the fear in his mind – the fear of fear. And this is the worst kind of fear, the fear without shape or form, with no material existence. This fear is a malevolent ghost, the resident evil in the mind. This fear becomes pain that turns a strongman into a weakling. The only way to overcome this worst enemy is to take a high dose of Fentanyl and be in cloud nine as he once claimed (joke or no joke). Of course, to quell the disquieting backlash, the secured assurance of friend Xi about Tay Digong’s continuous stay in the Palace by the murky Pasig will soon be declared as a joke. Declaring an unthinkable as a joke has been proven by the regime as the best way out of a quagmire. But mind you, he that started the joke that started the whole world crying would soon find that the joke would be on him. Here’ the Bee Gees for the exact reminder (underscoring supplied): I started a joke which started the whole world crying But I didn’t see that the joke was on me oh no I started to cry which started the whole world laughing Oh If I’d only seen that the joke was on me I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said ‘Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh if I’d only seen that the joke was on me I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said ‘Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh if I’d only seen that the joke was on me.

President Ferdinand Marcos in the 1970s also acquired the Petron Oil Corporation as another alternative to counter the cartelization of oil prices in the country. However, the OPSF was dismantled when President Corazon Aquino was catapulted to power in 1986. Adding insult to the injury was the passage of the Oil Deregulation Law during the incumbency of President Fidel Ramos. Ramos also privatized the government’s primary assets, including the ownership of the Petron Company (Petrophil Corporation), which the government under the Marcos administration acquired in 1973 for purposes of controlling the pump prices of oil. Lago said that the various transport group in the country is fighting for the lifting of the “Oil Deregulation Law,” believed to be the main culprit of the unrelenting oil price hike because of alleged “oil cartel” instituted by Shell, Petron, and Caltex, all major fuel manufacturers/distributors in the country. He said that there is also an urgent need to review and possibly scrap the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law, a comprehensive tax reform program, also tagged as the root cause of the sudden escalation of the prices of prime and basic commodities in the local market. Aside from scrapping the TRAIN Law, the need to lift the excise tax imposed on oil products should also be considered, the transport group said. Francisco Pagayaman, chair of the Katipunan ng Damayang Mahihirap (Kadamay) Northern Mindanao, said that a “stop train network” is launched Friday, a signature campaign aimed to repeal the TRAIN law. “The impoverished people now felt the ill-effect of the Train Law, which was found to have propelled a 4.5 percent inflation during the law’s initial implementation. We could foresee a bleak future if the “Train” continues to move,” Pagayaman said. He said that as an alternative to the scrapping of the Train Law, the Kadamay is supporting the passage of House Bill 7653, which calls for the re-implementation of the old National Internal Revenue Code and applying a “zero” tax on oil and petroleum products, including liquefied gas and bunker oils.

Friday, June 1, 2018 tors, armed with .45 pistols, shot the victim at close range while he was sitting at the center of the covered court. Residents who watched the event scampered in panic upon hearing burst of gunfire as they saw the victim fell to the floor and bathed on his own blood. According to initial police investigation, the victim’s son claimed it was highly possible that the killing was perpetrated by the NPA rebels who went into the mountain and joined the armed struggle. “I can identify their faces as residents of our community years back but had not been seen for a long time,” the son told police probers. The NPA confirmed they are responsible for the death of Panisan. In a text message sent to radio stations in Butuan City, the NPA Guerilla Front 21C said the village councilman was meted death for his involvement on activities that runs counter to revolutionary movement. “He was responsible in the psychological war to the broad masses and his role for the turn-over of three former NPAs to the police,” the text message reads. Panisan was the second victim killed by NPA hitmen in broad daylight. On April 18, a church leader of the Jehovah’s Witnesses Jepti Acido was gunned down by alleged NPA rebels in the village of Lahi in Gigaquit town in Surigao del Norte. “We strongly condemn the communist terrorists. These terroristic and criminal acts are their treacherous way to show their unreasonable cause. An honorable local official being number one in the latest barangay council election is a manifestation that indeed Kagawad Panisa is loved by the people.. We will ensure that justice will be served,” said Lt. Col.Gleen Joy Aynera, commanding officer of the 29th Infantry Battalion. Brig. Gen. Franco Nemesio Gacal, commander, 402nd Brigade said that, “This is plain murder and an attack against the people of Brgy Mahaba, Cabadbaran City. The victim was a duly elected official and was serving well his constituents. The NPA should stop this senseless killing and adhere to the provisions of the Comprehensive Agreement on Respect for Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law.”

In a letter to Chona Mantilla, DOLE Caraga regional director, the company also argued the allegations, saying there was no compliance report to reprimand Philsaga on the reported labor only contracting services. “In the absence of compliance order, why would DOLE include Philsaga in the list? We demand that the company’s name be removed from that list for lack of definitive finding that we are engaged in labor only contracting,” said lawyer Marie Glenn Cedeno-Sorila, Philsaga’s corporate legal counsel. In a mobile phone interview, Mantilla, however, could not say the figures on Philsaga’s

supposed labor only contract workers announced by Bello, who based his pronouncement on the report they submitted to DOLE central office. “It could not be the same list that came out in the media reports,” Mantilla said. She noted there are about 27-30 firms in Caraga which they called for a mandatory conference for these companies to clarify if they are engaged in labor only contracting. Asked if Philsaga were among those listed, Mantilla requested not to divulge it, saying this is a confidential matter. Villanueva clarified it’s contractors work under a legitimate service contract system, strictly following labor standards of which agencies in security, engineering and construction services, and mine operations comply with regional wage levels and faithful remittance of Social Security System, Philhealth and Pag-ibig fund. On March 8 this year, at least 263 security guards from three agencies engaged by the company became regular workers. Villanueva said Philsaga is a labor-friendly company, its probationary employees with good performance were regularized after six months. “We are very stringent with this policy that any contracting agency violating labor laws will be dealt with accordingly and the agreement will be rescinded in due time,” Villanueva said. Philsaga has existing service contracts with three security agencies, four in ore hauling, engineering and construction, and three in mine operation particularly in utilities services, rock works and drilling operations. Over the years, Villanueva said, Philsaga has been a consistent awardee by DOLE Caraga regional office including tripartite certificate of compliance on labor standards, labor-management commitment and productivity improvement, and compliance to labor relations regulations.

Those barangays with less than two percent of its population suspected as drug personalities are considered as slightly affected. There are 24, 2424 drugaffected barangays nationwide, this is roughly 58 percent of the total barangays of the country. Of the 24, 424 barangays, 15,290 are classified as slightly affected; 9,089 as moderately affected; and 85 are seriously affected. The PDEA, Villoso said, is

coordinating with the Philippine National Police (PNP), local health offices, and local social welfare offices in their campaign to clear the barangays in the province of illegal drugs. The Zamboanga Sibugay PPOC is chaired by Governor Wilter Palma.

from page 10 quarrying of natural resources cropped up. The provincial government of Nueva Ecija asserted that their authority to issue the quarry permit for commercial sand and gravel is vested under RA 7160 and RA 7942 or the Philippine Mining Act of 1995. Meanwhile, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) maintained it has the exclusive authority to issue the environment compliance certificate (ECC) required for the issuance of any quarry permit. Another contentious issue the panel took up was the proper and timely distribution of the shares of the LGUs on the collected taxes from the quarry operations. Pimentel said the mandate of the committee is to determine whether laws have been violated and whether public officials and employees can be held liable. “In the final analysis the committee will determine whether remedial legislation would be necessary to address the issues referred to the jurisdiction of this committee,” Pimentel said. Rep. Ria Vergara, one of the authors of HR 1505, proposed for the panel to recommend to the Ombudsman the filing of the appropriate criminal and administrative charges against the responsible provincial government

officials for their malfeasance and misfeasance. She said the progression of the inquiry had led to the discovery of other anomalies in the investigation of quarry operations in Nueva Ecija. These include the blatant disregard of the system of checks and balances put in place by the Philippine Mining Act of 1995 and its implementing rules and regulations by relegating the Provincial Mining Regulatory Board (PMRB) as a useless regulatory body. “The brazen violations of our environmental laws by the provincial government when they, without any legal basis, required quarry operators to secure another tool for corruption – ‘local ECCs’ in lieu of the ECC issued by the DENR,” said Vergara. Vergara also cited the provincial government’s violations of the provisions of its own Revenue Code as regards the submission of hauling slips and production reports and the timely and orderly and orderly distribution of quarry tax shares of the LGUs. Vergara proposed the review of the relevant provisions of the Local Government Code, the Philippine Mining Act of 1995 and the relevant rules and regulations to ensure that the quarry operations will be carried out with proper and adequate system of checks and balances. Meanwhile, Rep. Arnulfo Teves, Jr. pressed for the immediate filing of cases against quarry operators in his province of Negros Oriental who violate the measures and conditions of the ECC. Other authors of the resolution are Reps. Micaela Violago, Magnolia Antonino and Teves. / MVI Palomar NOTICE

SM Cares wins prestigious Albert Sussman International Community Award SM Prime’s pioneering housing project for survivors of super typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) has won the prestigious Albert Sussman International Community Support Award of the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) Foundation, the global trade association of the shopping center industry. The award was conferred during the Global Retail Real Estate Convention (RECon) in Las Vegas, USA last May 20, 2018. The Albert Sussman International Community Support Award is considered the highest honour in the community support award program of the ICSC Foundation which was organized to acknowledge outstanding humanitarian work of the retail industry in the community and recognize the industry’s most innovative and impactful initiatives. The ICSC Foundation

Community Support Awards recognizes outstanding community support programs of institutions, committed to social responsibility and community outreach efforts by retail establishments, their management companies, or retailers. Prior to winning the prestigious award, SM Cares was also recognized with the ICSC Global Awards 2017 for Asia Pacific, held last October 24, 2017, in Bangkok, Thailand. One of SM Cares’ partner NGOs, CFC-ANCOP, will also receive an additional financial grant from the ICSC Foundation. SM Prime Executive Committee Chairman Hans T. Sy spearheaded the SM Cares Housing Project in which a total of 1,000 shelter units were donated in areas heavily struck by super typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) in Central Visayas. The project is a joint

to the beneficiaries for free, and SM worked with several NGO partners for its community development, including livelihood and values formation activities. Hans Sy said the award

is a recognition of the valuable contribution of SM’s partners and the painstaking work the hundreds of volunteers had given into making the villages vibrant communities that they are

today. Sy added that the award is a testament to the courage and resiliency of the human spirit in the face of the biggest tragedy. “We See wins, page 11
