Andanar sees need to promote government Covid-19 programs By RUTH ABBEY GITA-CARLOS

MANILA – Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) Secretary Martin Andanar on Friday emphasized the need to promote the national government’s programs aimed at addressing the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic in the country.

In a keynote speech during the fifth Covid-19 virtual town hall meeting, Andanar urged the local governments, public information officers, and youth leaders to help President Rodrigo Duterte’s administration in keeping the public updated about the ongoing efforts See PROMOTE, page 7

THE Ayala Group, led by its healthcare unit, Ayala Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (AC Health), will build 4 BSL-2 laboratories and help capacitate 3 existing laboratories in Makati, Cebu, and Davao, for an additional

capacity of 5,500 confirmatory RT-PCR tests per day for the country. This is part of the group’s contribution to the Department of Health and the Inter-agency Task Force’s Project T3 (Test, Trace, Treat), that aims to

A hearing of a case for grave coercion filed by a person who claims to represent Vallacar Transit Inc. (VTI) against Ricardo Yanson, Jr., Roy Yanson, Emily Yanson, Ma. Lourdes Celina Lopez (the “Y4”) and others was conducted yesterday before Judge Abraham Bayona of the Bacolod Metropolitan Trial Court Branch 7. Lawyers for the Y4 maintain their innocence and added that the criminal complaint was not authorized to be filed by VTI whose management is still being questioned before the Bacolod Regional Trial Court, Branch 53, in a petition filed in December 2019. They further explained that the issuance of a warrant of arrest, if any is forthcoming, does not at all detract from the presumption of innocence they enjoy as an accused in any criminal case, an entitlement which is a basic constitutional right. It also is a bailable offense. During the proceedings before MTC Br. 7, the Court disallowed the participation of Attys. Gerry See LAWYERS, page 6

AN FRANCISCO, Agusan del Sur--Two c onf irme d c or on av i r u s d i s e a s e 2019 (COVID-19) cases welcomed Agusan del Sur’s Modified General C ommunity Quarantine status after more than two months that the province remain free from the dreaded global pandemic virus. The COVID-19 victims who are both asymptomatic are a returning 37-year-old male San Francisco town resident from Florida, US and a 41-year-old male from Cagayan de Oro City who wanted to re-apply for a job at Philsaga Mining Corp in Rosario town. They were tested positive from the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) swab results from the S outhern Philippines Medical Center while 13 other probable cases were tested negative in a result that came out May 31. The COVID patient from Cagayan de Oro was still a suspect case who was held at the provincial border checkpoint in Taligaman in Butuan City. All of the 15 quarantined persons who mostly availed of the “Balik

Probinsya (Return to the Province)” program were initially tested positive in a rapid antibody tests prompting health workers to swab them for RT-PCR tests. The COVID patient from the US stayed at a hotel in Manila for over a month while under quarantine and was tested negative in the initial RT-PCR test. He arrived in the province in May 24 while the other patient came in May 22. Dr. Jaqueline Frances Momville, Provincial Health Officer, said both COVID patients did not show any sign of symptoms and were in stable conditions. Calling their cases as “imported”, she expect more of these cases will come out in the coming days as more and more returning residents will avail of the “Balik Probinsya” program. Momville said contact tracing were immediately done after the laboratory results came out since they have the list of persons including frontliners who personally faced the COVID patients at the quarantine facility. She reiterated calls to local residents in the province to stay at home

now that the province have already two confirmed COVID-19 cases. “ Our home is the main frontliner in this battle against the deadly COVID-19,” she said. Gov. Santiago Cane Jr. said he will ask the national Inter-Agency Task Force to allow the Provincial COVID-19 Task Force conduct another swab sample testing

to returning residents even as they already went through the same tests while in quarantine in Manila. This measure, Cane said, is part of the stringent rules they have put in place for returning residents who will be also strictly screened and quarantined for 14 days before they would reunite with their families.

Heal our Land By EDNA E. MIRANDA T-III North City Central School Cagayan de Oro City

Shimmering Lights from afar, Beautiful Creatures on a good war Glittering Diamonds surrounds’ this pleasantly World around, Human races with technological advancements bringing fortune to one and all, Countries raised their cannons, waiving Spots were in tunes Cultural heritage find its ways, Across the mountains and pretty bays. Then shadows crawling slowly, consumed depths of soul roughly Ruining every innocence, blocking horizons with miseries, Rampant chaos across the globe, Rushing confusion abound. Dark clouds in the sky covering blooming petals in sight, Queries come to light, answers thrashing aside. All were vanished, all were astonished. Take up arms my dear fatherland reach the light and be calm extend and reach out to the Lord yield your soul and be totally cured, Raise your voice high up and freely utter, God, heal our land.

READING SOCIAL STORY By: DEBRA A. MANUBAG SPED Teacher I Ozamiz City Central School

“They don’t say sorry”, “They don’t seem to care with how others feel”, “They are impulsive and impatient” - these are some complaints I usually hear from parents and guardians who are new to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that can cause significant social, communication and behavioral challenges. One of the core aspects of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is social dysfunction. Reading social story to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder must be part of their daily routine. I am an advocate for this, and encouraging teachers, paraprofessionals and most especially parents, that this should be part of their intervention if not their daily program and curriculum. Social Story is a tool designed to help children in the spectrum. It is a short story that help them understand and picture out a social scenario. This was first introduced by Carol Gray, in 1991, a teacher and an educational consultant in Michigan, USA. She is now the director of the Gray Center for Social Learning and also an author of

several books. This teaches them how to interact in an effective and appropriate manner and how to use the sequential information that will prevent them from anxiety. Social story sample includes self-care skills (e.g. how to wash hands, brush teeth or take a bath; safety skills (e.g. how to stay on the sidewalk while walking or what to do when there is fire); social skills (e.g. asking help, saying thank you); and many more. According to research, social story plays a significant part in teaching skills and behaviors to children with ASD who lack social skills. Decreased inappropriate behavior like being too aggressive, disruptive and being too loud; increased desirable behaviors like interacting with peers; and lesser anxiety and tantrums in social interactions are among the positive results of the study. With this recent undesirable situation we have, utilize the use of reading social story because children’s inappropriate behavior can negatively affect their ability to interact with others and will disrupt their development and learning.

Customized blended learning By ALLAN S. TANGKIHAY Teacher III Sta. Cruz Elementary School

BLENDED learning integrates computer-assisted online activities with traditional face to face teaching. When used by a trained teacher, this approach can add valuable new dimensions to the learning process. It can allow learners to work at their own pace and teachers to fill content gaps. Blended learning is a well established practice. It has enabled countries to adapt to the demands of the current pandemic. Digital remote learning and teaching is backed up by dependable infrastructure and skilled, motivated teachers. Skills development linked to the use of user friendly and interactive digital resources has allowed teachers

to focus on attaining a high quality of teaching with subsequent learning successes. The greatest success has been a blended learning system that uses a combination of online and offline interactive resources with preinstalled apps. These can be used as a guide for teaching, home schooling, after school study and tutoring. We call it techno-blended learning – a structured approach using mostly offline apps in an integrated way with the full participation of a trained or experienced adult mentor or guide. The response from teachers, students and other stakeholders to this approach of teaching and learning has been overwhelmingly positive.

Indigenous People Advocating Earth Democracy Earth Democracy movements are struggles of the disadvantaged and excluded, aimed at conserving nature’s balance to preserve their survival. This is what Indigenous People have been advocating and fighting for but until now remains unheeded. When we lost the 17 million of dipterocarp forest which had been in existence for thousands, if not billions, of years and the billions species living in the forest ecosystem even before the homo sapiens came into being, the ecological people (the Indigenous People) lost nature’s and sustenance economy. When we lost the 13 major bays which are now biologically dead together with the 25 major rivers in the country which had dried up or polluted, our country has gone down the drain on ecological security. In her book, Earth Democracy for Justice, Sustainability and Peace, the world renowned environmentalist,

Dr. Vandana Shiva said, “Earth Democracy movements are struggles of the disadvantaged and excluded, aimed at conserving nature’s balance to preserve their survival. Ecology and justice movements offer the world a future by working to ensure the survival of, and protect the fundamental rights to, the earth’s resources. They are movements of marginal communities who have been deprived of the benefits of market – and trade-led economic globalization but who bear all the costs. They reverse the trend of treating uprooted people as disposable people.” Where are now the 15 million Indigenous People in the Philippines? They are now inside the vicious cycle of poverty and many of them have joined the Left. In my sorties to the hinterlands touching base with the IPs who have organized themselves into coopera-

tives to combat poverty, I cannot help the outpourings of tears hearing stories of so much pains and injustice. Stories of their water rights being violated, turned into money-making water project of a local government unit in Bukidnon while their families are without water. The “Abaga Ta Bayug” (the Mindamora Falls) the sacred place of the IPs is being converted into a tourist spot where construction is going-on, creating havoc to the most beautiful 3-storey falls amidst the amazing green scenery of radiating trees and blooming flowers where flocks of birds flying above as if dancing to the music of the wind. Every inch of that green scenery is sacred to the IPs where they converge to pray – but now, destroyed for money-making by the rich and powerful.

What is worse is when their Ancestral Domains are converted into plantations or are subjected as Community-Based Forest Management Agreements (CBFMA) without their knowledge. The Chieftains approached me and queries were raised, i.e., Kami ba ay tinuturing pang tao? Di ba may karapatan din kami? But they assured me, they will not join the Left. They will mobilize their collective power as cooperatives to fight for their rights. Recently, they wrote our beloved President to narrate their sad stories of See DEMOCRACY, page 7

Unruffled

The ‘reopening’ after renovation

THE world, closed for over three months for ‘renovation’ is now slowly opening the economic doors after an unseen viral architect had ‘re-engineered’ man’s ungodly behavior, egocentric attitude and absolute greed. And indeed the reopening came with dislocations on a global scale — created by an invisible termite called corona virus. The great repair was so massive such that it forced people to lock themselves at home for fear of getting caught by the millions of

killer debris that had engulfed the entire planet Earth. And we have this fearful forecast circulating that the great monster architect will continue to wreak havoc until the end of this year, or even beyond 2020. Lockdowns have become the new normal and like it or not, these will be part of our daily existence, not until the pandemic is completely down and out. Amid an increase in preventive measures against the epidemic such as travel restrictions, school and

business closures and the cancellations of large-scale public events, monster Covid -19 had become clear and present danger to human lives. The number of people diagnosed with Covid-19 keeps on rising, and is now global with almost all countries affected with the US taking the lead. The number of confirmed cases of Covid-19 had already surpassed the 2 million mark and the death toll - by the thousands - is still rising by the minute. For now, the world is in

jeopardy and the renovation may continue as it were. This may take sometime, dependent on how fast mankind can produce that elusive vaccine and eventually adjust to the new normal-social distancing, wearing of face masks,hygiene practice and other health protocols. (ruffy44_ph2000@yahoo. com)

Think A Minute

Determination dies hard

THINK a minute… This is the true story of a young lady who told all of her friends she was going to be an actress. At the young age of 16 she went off to drama school in New York City. Unfortunately after only a short time the school sent a letter to her mother saying, “Please take your daughter home. She has no acting ability at all!” Instead of giving up and going home, this tough teen got a job in a musical, but she was soon fired from that job also. In fact, she worked in three other musicals and was fired from every one of them! In two years, she had not earned one dollar as an actress. Finally she got a job as a model, but soon lost that job

too. Then she became seriously ill. The doctor told her she might never walk again. However, she bravely fought this terrible disease for two years, until eventually she was able to walk again. After six years in New York City she had nothing to show for herself except rejection and obstacles she had overcome. Yet amazingly, 20 years later 40 million people watched this actress in her very first television show. In fact, more people watched I Love Lucy than the coronation of Queen Elizabeth and the inauguration of the U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower. For five years Lucille Ball’s program was the #1 television show in America! Later, she became

the first woman to be the head of her own television production company. Some people think successful stars like Lucille Ball simply get discovered and success just falls into their lap. But we do not see all their years of work and determination overcoming all kinds of obstacles and disappointments to reach their life’s goal. Lucille Ball did not get her first TV show until she was 40 years old! Remember: “Delay is not denial … Success is hanging on after others have let go.” If Lucille Ball had given up and quit trying, no one would have blamed her. No one would have remembered her either! Your determination can

Jhan Tiafau Hurst

enable you to eventually live your dream. No matter what gets in your way, if you’re living God’s way, you cannot lose since Jesus either gives you what you want or something better—even if you do not understand it at first. He knows much more than you what will bring you true, lasting happiness and success. Won’t you give Him your life today—and with His divine help, determine to live His way? Just think a minute…

5 DA-NorMin’s P6.2-M agri-interventions to boost farm productivity FOR ADS PLACEMENT CALL OR TEXT: 0917-712-1424 • 0947-893-5776

ALWANGAN, MALAYBALAY CITY, BUKIDNON - The Department of Agriculture in Northern Mindanao (DA10) turned over P6.2 million agricultural interventions to farmer-organizations and a local government unit in Bukidnon. Under the DA-Special Area for Agricultural Development (DA-SAAD) machineries and equipment worth P5.9 million aims to help improve productivity and reduce poverty among the marginalized sectors in agriculture. The local government of Talakag, Bukidnon received three units 35-horsepower mini four-wheel drive farm tractors with implements and two units corn mechanical sheller amounting P3.2 million. The Upper Patag Growers and Farmers Associations, Inc. of Lantapan, Bukidnon received one unit rice combine harvester, one unit 35-horsepower four-wheel drive farm tractors with implements which include rotavator and trailer amounting P2.6 million. “The need to increase the level of farm mechanization,

to produce more food efficiency and quality will be beneficial both for farmers and consumers,” said Carlene C. Collado, OIC-Regional Executive Director of DA-10. RED Collado explained, farm machinery will boost farming activities and ensure high production and reduce postharvest losses. DA-Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization (DA-PhilMech) reported that postharvest losses for corn accounts to 7.18 percent and 16.47 percent for rice, from harvesting, piling, hauling, shelling, drying and storage. He has been emphasizing the need for farmers to adopt the different agrimachinery and equipment innovations to increase the country’s mechanization rate from 2.31 horsepower per hectare to 4 hp per hectare. “Dako ug ikatabang ang mga makinarya kay ang wala na develop nga yuta tungod kay kulang sa galamiton maka expand na. Dako pasalamat namo sa Ginoo nga natabangan mi sa DA,” said Reynaldo Berdi, President of Dominorog Small Farmers Association of Dominorog, Talakag, Bukidnon.

[The machinery would be a big help in developing and expanding our farm. We’re thankful to God with DA’s assistance.] DA-SAAD is a locallyfunded program of the agency that addresses poverty alleviation among the marginalized sectors in agri-fishery. Through this program, provinces with high poverty

incidence rate have been given assistance in agri-fisheries since 2017. Included in the turnover of agri-interventions were six units, 500-egg capacity automatic egg incubators amounting P306,372 under the Livestock Program of the agency. The project intends to provide livelihood enterprise

to qualified recipients who may engage in balut business, selling of days-old-chicks and production of live chicken or poultry meat. The incubator comes with a module of 10 male and 100 female chicken or ducks as start-up agribusiness kit. Six association-beneficiaries in Bukidnon received one unit each which comprised,

the QUARBA Farmers Cooperative and Ambong Womens Organization of Impasug-ong; Dologon Fisherfolk Livelihood Association of Maramag; Bethany Christian Home for Children of Talakag; Kalilangan Cassava Farmers Association of Kalilangan and J.A Agro Employees Farmers Beneficiary Association of Quezon.# (ATCabig)

Prior to the granting of the number of units per route, LTFRB has already conducted surveys in each of the points of the origin to determine on how many households are residing in those communities. “We are limiting our calculations to only two persons per household – ang isa gatrabaho u gang isa homemaker nga pwede maoy mag-merkado,” he said. For example, only ten PUV units are allowed to ply the Grand Europa to Cogon market route. “Alt houg h t anan na g itugot an nga puwe de makagawas but in spirit, since we are still in modified general community q u a r a nt i n e , t h e b a s i c policy still applies: stay at home if you don’t have business outside. That is the principle why gamay ra among gi-allow nga ipabiyahe,” Guro said. T he f are s for t he s e special routes are also higher than the pre-COVID routes. The minimum fare is P9 for traditional jeepneys, P11 for mode r n i z e d j e e pne y s , P 1 1 for non-airconditioned PUVs and P13 for airconditioned PUVs. Again, this is meant to discourage people from loitering outside in this era of the new normal.

How to prepare oneself to teach online By ESTELITA C. SAQUIN SSHT-I San Antonio National High School

IF you are a teacher preparing for the August 24 opening of classes, how can you make the most of online education experience with your new class? Exactly as you would expect in a physical school space, students are taught how to interact with teachers, their peers and lesson content using whiteboard technology, quizzes, voice and video as well as receiving and sending assignment tasks. How must you introduce yourself to a new class if you are meeting them online for the first time? If we consider how teachers deliver excellent classroom teaching practice in a physical space, how they prepare

must not be approached any differently in an online environment. Flipped learning is a term used to describe how teachers can provide materials to students to learn outside of the classroom. Although this is traditionally considered homework and typically completed without the teacher, increasingly this approach to enhance learning outside of the classroom has been set and completed online. Teachers will be focusing on core curriculum content, meeting the needs of the vulnerable students as well as enhancing their engagement – mixing between activities.

Andanar said Filipinos should stay informed to know that President Rodrigo Duterte’s administration is doing to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus. “C ommunicat ion is the primary instrument of dissemination for every Filipino to know, understand, follow, and believe the magnitude of care and support from our President and our government during this pandemic and beyond,” he said. He made the call as he stressed that the spread of false information about the government’s Covid-19 response being peddled by “non-credible” and “unreliable” sources could be prevented through the collective efforts of the workers in the government. “It is imperative that only the truth from the officials and experts concerned will be released to eradicate misinformation and disinformation coming from non-credible, unreliable sources,” Andanar said. The PCOO has launched the website covid19.gov.ph to stop the proliferation of fake news and provide the public with accurate information about the Covid-19 pandemic. The virtual portal serves as a one-stop source for people who are looking for news and resources about Covid-19.

Amid the pandemic, Andanar said the government is taking advantage of the use of technology in communicating with the public. “One way or another, we have already cope with the situation,” he said. Andanar said Filipinos should know that the government’s national plan covers the protection of their “Kalusugan (Health), Kabuhayan (Livelihood), Kaayusan (Order), and Kinabukasan (Future).” He added that the government remains focused on helping the displaced workers through the Department of Trade and Industry’s PHP1-billion finance rehabilitation support for the formal employees and the Department of Labor and Employment’s various programs for informal workers. “We communicate as one, cascades the national programs concerning the Covid-19 pandemic, to the information officers of the local government units, including regular updates, guidelines, and current community quarantine protocols,” Andanar said.
