BIFF threat against Duterte downplayed DAVAO CITY -- An Army official has downplayed the threat of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) on the life of President Rodrigo Duterte, saying the group is desperate and has no ground support.

This was the reaction expressed by Eastern Mindanao Command deputy commander and spokesperson on martial law, Brig.

Gen. Gilbet Gapay, on the message left by BIFF during their attack in Pigcawayan that their next target is the President.

Gapay said, “That pronouncement of the BIFF is a desperate pronouncement because what happened in Pigcawayan recently was a theoretic retaliation and somehow a diversionary

attack resulting from the setbacks.”

Gapay said the BIFF was expecting a big result out of the attack of what they want to achieve to gain attention.

“But it turned out to be otherwise, that’s why noong napahiya na sila, so before they fled they destroyed some schools, classrooms and pictures of our President.

Gapay said the BIFF has suffered major setbacks in their supposedly stronghold Maguindanao, specifically the SPMS box, because forces there have also intensified operations against the BIFF. SPMS stands for the four municipalities of Shariff Aguak, Pigcawayan, Mamasapano and Salibo.

Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you believed?

Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.”

Therefore many other signs

will be opened with a rendition of “Diana”. This will be followed by Alay DavNor Walk with about 8,000 participants; and Hudyaka Street Dancing.

“We develop our locales to entertain our visitors,”

Teaching evolution in schools

By NELLIE F. ABAD Teacher I Montol National High School

IN the past decade, the academic community all over the world has increased considerably its activity concerning both the teaching and learning of evolution.

S om e re pre s e nt at i ve events are the convening of thee Evolution Education Research Conference which brought together educational researchers to identify and discuss critical issues in evolution education, the establish-

he said in explaining that the PLGU of Davao Oriental is banking on the active participation of some indigenous peoples of the province. (PIA 11/ Jeanevive Duron-Abangan)

ing of a Society for the Study of Evolution Education Committee which organizes educational symposia, the holding of a Conference on Teaching Evolution, the issuing of new statements and materials supporting evolution education by many science and science education organizations and the production of a white paper serving as a statement of the nature and importance of the field for use by educators.

To facilitate a constructivist approach in the classroom, an instructor

must provide situations in which students can have the opportunity to acquire more scientifically appropriate concepts in tackling evolution. Here, questions must be raised.

For example, in teaching population genetics, present a set of initial parameters and ask the students to predict what will happen through time if the human population increases. A computer simulation that graphs an allelic frequency versus time for several populations is a good start.

Priceless... from page A12

Investment pays off At the age of 14, Lordini had to take on the responsibilities of her father when he passed away. As the eldest among seven kids, she had to put aside her own studies and prioritize the needs of her siblings.

From Aklan, Lordini went to Manila to work as a maid, saleslady, and street vendor to keep her siblings in school until they finished college. Whenever she had enough money, Lordini would reward herself with some jewelry.

“Noon, nakahiligan ko mag-ipon ng alahas at nang nagipit ako, nalaman ko na lumaki na ang halaga ng mga na-ipundar ko. Kaya nung nalaman ko ang kalakaran sa pagsasanla, ginagawa ko na s’ya at sa Cebuana Lhuillier ako kumakapit dahil panatag ako na hindi mababawasan ang alahas ko dahil naka-seal sa plastic at pinapipirmahan sa akin kaya safe,” she said.

Lordini eventually became an alajera and now has her own jewelry business.

She still continues to pawn for the needs of her business and for the education of her two children.

With their stories of strength, compassion, and success, Gloria, Betty, and Lordini represent Filipinos who have made countless sacrifices to overcome life’s challenges and put the welfare of others first.

Monday, June 26, 2017 Duterte earned enemies like the BIFF because he has demonstrated political will in governance.

During the Mindanao Hour at Lispher Inn, Davao City Friday, Presidential spokesperson Ernesto Abella underscored the BIFF’s lack of ground support even from Muslim communities.

“The local Muslim community, the Maranaos especially, do not want this.

And for whatever reason that they are dealing with this, whether it is personal interest or what, there is no ground support for them.

“I think we need to go back to the fact that really, this is an isolated --- these are isolated groups that are brilliant at media manipulation,” Abella pointed out.

Abella told reporters that the BIFF will not succeed.

According to Gapay, BIFF has been contained to their stronghold because the Armed Forces have also complementary operations outside of Marawi and ongoing operations all over Mindanao addressing various terrorist groups, and one of these is BIFF. “So what happened there is a retaliatory attack and is not connected with the Marawi operations,” Gapay said.

Meanwhile, Abella reported that the number of hostages rescued totaled to 31 while there were 73 trapped civilians also rescued.

The incident also left one soldiers dead, two woundedin-action from the government side. From the BIFF, six were killed , eight wounded.

A civilian was wounded during the incident while there were 367 households or 1,707 individuals displaced.

But Gapay vowed the government forces will sustain their operations against the BIFF until they have been decimated. (Lilian C. Mellejor/PNA)

The celebration kicked off with a carabao float parade last June 20 fol-

lowed by the yearly State of Municipality Address by Mondigo and the opening of the agro fair booth in the morning followed by

the drum and lyre in the afternoon. By June 21, it was the Manok-manokan Festival street dancing in the morning and the Miss

Sugbongcogon coronation night in the evening. On June 22, there was a boxing at the park, basketball invitational game, fireworks display and glow in the dark party. On June 23, there was a Kasalan ng Bayan followed by a youth congress.

At the beginning of the 20th century, Sugbongcogon was still a barrio, the precursor of the presentday barangay. It was a cogonal area for grazing cattle. Today, it is now the seat of a large poultry farm thus its yearly festivity is called the Manok-manokan Festival.

In 1917, B ene dic to Lagbas led migrants from Cebu and populated the area. Since they came from Sugbo (the vernacular term from Cebu), the place was later known as SugbongMayor Mildred Mondigo (left) congratulates newly-crowned cogon.

The priceless value of pawning During times of need, it pays to have a friend to turn to for help. For Gloria Fontanilla, Betty Mallon Talavera, and Lordini Yupano, help came in the form of pawning. Whether to help finance a livelihood or buy basic needs, pawning valuables for cash has proven to be a worthwhile financial solution for many Filipinos.

Education is more important 59-year-old Gloria of La Union took it upon herself to help four nephews and nieces finish school. All were in college so the expenses came in lumps and there were times when her budget would fall short. It was during these instances that she would pawn her jewelry which was worth it because she knows the value of education.

“Mahalaga ‘yung mga nai-sanla ko pero mas mahalaga ‘yung pag-aaral ng mga pamangkin ko. Ayokong mahinto sila kaya nagsanla muna ako,” Gloria said.

Aside from getting help from relatives and friends, Betty also sought the help of Cebuana Lhuillier in their time of need.
