Give Moros, IPs a chance to lead in gov’t, says Duterte PRESIDENT Rodrigo R. Duterte on Friday urged politicians and voters to give Moros and Indigenous Peoples (IPs) a chance to lead in government. “Give our brothers and sisters a chance to lead. The Moros and Lumads need to be given importance. They shouldn’t be viewed as marginalized sectors,” Duterte said in the vernacular during his speech at the Hugpong ng Pagbabago - Hugpong sa Tawong Lungsod miting de avance in Davao City. The President cited the importance of the groups having a voice in decisionmaking. “They must have a voice to be able to tell the truth and what is in their heart. You should not just continue to hold grudges and wage wars out of the resentment that you were forgotten and left out,” he said. President Rodrigo Roa Duterte delivers his speech during the Hugpong ng Pagbabago-Hugpong sa Tawong Lungsod “It is only when they (HNP-HTL) campaign sortie at the Davao City Recreation Center on May 10, 2019.

Government’s cash transfer can minimize impact of TRAIN, says PIDS consultant THE implementation of the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law could affect Filipinos living in poverty. However, its impact on poor households could be minimized through the proper implementation of the unconditional cash transfer (UCT) as stipulated in the law. Under the TRAIN law, households belonging to the lowest five income deciles, which is estimated at 10 million poor families, are to receive cash assistance of PHP 200 per month in 2018, and PHP 300 per month in 2019 and 2020. Of the 10 million households, about 4.4 million are existing Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries.
Using computable general equilibrium (CGE) analysis, Ateneo de Manila Assistant Professor Philip Tuaño estimated that poverty among households, in general, could increase by 1.72 percent due to changes brought by the TRAIN law. Fisherfolk and farmers are among the sectors that are expected to see the highest increase at 3.2 percent and 2.3 percent, respectively. The first package of the TRAIN law covers the lowering of personal income taxes, simplifying the estate and donor’s taxes, expanding the value-added tax (VAT) base, adjusting oil and automobile excise taxes, and introducing excise tax on sugar-sweetened beverages.
However, Tuaño’s study showed that poverty incidence among households is likely to increase by only 0.26 percent if UCT is factored in. In this case, the increase in poverty incidence among fisherfolk and farmers is estimated at 1.35 percent and 0.06 percent, respectively. The poverty incidence among transport workers, on the other hand, is likely to rise by about 2 percent because of the TRAIN. But, with the implementation of the government’s Pantawid Pasada program, a decline of 8 percent in poverty incidence is expected among transport workers. Given that UCT can offset increases in poverty incidence across all sectors,
Tuaño emphasized the importance of implementing the UCT in full. Tuaño also pointed out that although the UCT can partially reverse the negative impact of TRAIN law on households, additional assistance from the government may still be needed to totally reverse the negative impacts of the law. The government, he added, should ensure that the revenues generated from the TRAIN law are allocated on programs aimed at alleviating the plight of poor and vulnerable households. Likewise, he urged the government to help families belonging to the seven lowest income deciles and not just those who are below the poverty line.
do not have a voice. That is the only time when we can’t exactly control how people think or condition them to think the right way,” he added. Duterte said no one should be left behind as he pushed for an inclusive government well-represented by different sectors and groups. “No one will be able to say that anyone was left behind, all of us included. And besides, no matter what you do to Davao, whether you make peace or wage war, it will still remain as a city for the people,” he said. Duterte also reminded voters to choose their leaders wisely, especially after his term ends in 2022. “What we have to prepare for is when I step down from the presidency. This coming elections, choose your leaders wisely. Make sure that they are good because it’s no longer my time,” he said. (PNA)
Pay rules for May 13 polls out THE labor department has reminded employers in the private sector to observe proper payment of wages to their employees who will report to work on May 13, 2019. In Labor Advisory No. 07, series of 2019, Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III said employees working on May 13 are entitled to additional 30 percent in their daily pay. Under Proclamation No. 719 issued by President Rodrigo Duterte, Monday is a special non-working holiday to enable the public to exercise their right to vote during the mid-term local and national elections. As a guide to employers and workers alike, the labor department prescribed the following pay rules: If the employee did not work, the “no work, no pay” policy shall apply unless there is another company policy, practice, or collective bargaining agreement (CBA) granting payment on special days. For work done during the special non-working holiday, he/she shall be paid an additional 30% of his/her daily rate on the first eight hours of work [(basic wage x 130%) + COLA]. For work done in excess of eight hours (overtime work), he/she shall be paid an additional 30% of his/her hourly rate on the said day [hourly rate of the basic daily wage x 130% x 130% x number of hours worked]. If an employee works on a special holiday that also falls on his/her rest day, he/she shall be paid an additional 50% of his/her daily rate on the first eight hours of work [(basic wage x 150%) + COLA]. For overtime work on a special holiday that also falls on his/her rest day, he/she shall be paid an additional 30% of his/her hourly rate on the said day [Hourly rate of the basic wage x 150% x 130% x number of hours worked]. #Paul Ang

Farewell Dongkoy
Charlotte, North Carolina--The political landscape in Cagayan de Oro City and the province of Misamis Oriental will never be the same again with the demise of former governor and mayor Vicente “Dongkoy” Yap Emano or VYE on midnight last Tuesday, May 7. As founder of Padayon Pilipino, Emano led a colorful political life and career that spanned decades and he popularized the use of colors to identify himself, his allies and followers. Mention the color violet in Cagayan de Oro or anywhere in Misamis Oriental and people will associate it with Emano. He was ahead of his time and his contemporaries. As a media practitioner who followed Emano’s rise to power I had to look up and read the book of Italian philosopher Niccolo Machiavelli from time to time as reference point to fully appreciate how Emano operated as both politician and public official. If you are allied with him, Emano would be loyal to you all the way at all cost. How could such loyalty not invite and inspire corresponding loyalty from people such as Felix of Nabulod, Tagoloan who sells fish everyday?
Politics 24/7 At one time Emano, then mayor of my hometown of Tagoloan, bought all of Felix’s fish and talked to him, telling him about his plans for Tagoloan. Emano made people feel good about themselves. In fact, I think he may be among if not the greatest politicians Tagoloan had every produced. Emano mastered local politics and some of his closest and erstwhile allies including the late lawyer Fred Gapuz confirmed that Emano ate, drank, slept and talked politics 24/7. A fellow Tagoloanon, Emano soon endeared himself to the hearts of many residents of Misamis Oriental including Cagayan de Oro City especially the vulnerable masses. We both graduated from the same elementary and high schools. We breathed the same air from the mountain of Malaiba and soaked in the cold waters of Tagoloan river at different times in our lives. Yes,our lives crossed paths in the course of our work and I think we did great. I might be his number critic during the course of his political career and saw how he worked the many
pawns he used to advance his agenda. Political opponent But he was a fellow Tagoloanon and like any townmate was amazed at how he came so far in his public service. As I would always say during my radio and TV broadcasts “walang personalan, trabaho lang (nothing personal, just work).” During my media career I was told by some of Emano’s people who happened to be my friends that he, also dubbed “Alas” by those within the Padayon Pilipino circle, was mad at me. In some press conferences we did cross paths and no words were exchanged but I can see and feel the icy stares he would cast my way and I must admit it can be unnerving at times. That said I still persisted in my work. Just a throwback; Emano was elected mayor of Tagoloan town at the time I worked at the 6th Municipal Circuit Court of Tagoloan-Villanueva Misamis Oriental branch. I later learned to my surprise that Emano helped in the appointment of his political opponent the late Judge Arteo Valdehueza to the judiciary.
Susan Palmes-Dennis
*********** Though the courts are under the Supreme Court yet we coordinated and supported the local government in all its activities including the weekly flag raising ceremony. Even then I observed the mayor up close. I must admit Emano can be fun to see engaging people in conversation and Tagoloan had by that time grabbed the attention of local mainstream media because of his rising political star. Our office is outside the Municipio or town and in fact people at the town hall can look down at the Court house or vice versa. At the time I saw a steady stream of visitors like lawyers, bankers and local media visiting Emano’s office everyday. The mayor’s office in Tagoloan is where I met media practitioners in Cagayan de Oro like Bill Henson, Vincent Quinga and Sandy Bas and Rudy Ladso as well as Ben Emata and Noli Olarte.

The CYNOSURE
Today is E-Day, vote for candidates with integrity EVEN then, the election fever remains high. Perhaps, the readers know of the latest about the controversy of the “disqualification” of Cagayan De Oro City Mayor Oscar S. Moreno to run for Mayor on May 13, 2019. The Commissions on Elections (COMELEC), Second Division, has purportedly promulgated a resolution dated May 1, 2019 granting the petition to disqualify Moreno to run in the scheduled election today. Of course, the Moreno camp would vehemently deny the disqualification issued by the COMELEC, which came out May 10, 2019, three-days prior to the election. Moreno’s camp hurriedly called for a conference with some members of the local media to make sure that the denial would hog the local newspaper Saturday. And, it did. Some local newspapers ran the story describing the COMELEC resolution as “fake” even without breaking the story. Anyway, Moreno’s lawyers argued that it would be impossible to issue the promulgation of the order on a Holiday when the country is observing the Labor Day on May 1, 2019. They argued that the absence of
the COMELEC “seal” rendered the resolution was fake. In trying to justify their contention that the resolution was fake, Moreno’s camp, even contended that they have a cellular phone number of Commissioner Luie Tito Guia, the presiding officer of the COMELEC Second Division, who signed the resolution. Well, there is also a question on whether the mobile phone of the Comelec Commissioner Guia was authentic. In contrast, the City Comelec Office, said that they have not received the official communication from the COMELEC Manila. The election official also said that they could not make verification of the resolution with the COMELEC out of propriety. “Whether a disqualification order was issued against Moreno, the fact, remains that the city Comelec would observe a “status quo” until the official communication is received by the Comelec office,” the election official said. The same election official said that the date of the promulgation is not important because nobody knows if the commissioners were working even on
a holiday like the Comelec offices in other parts of the country. There is, however, the greater possibility that the votes in favor of Moreno would be invalidated. In other words, if Moreno wins, he still could not assume as City Mayor because he was already disqualified. Thus, the next candidate for the City Mayor with the highest number of votes would automatically be proclaimed as the new City Mayor. Aside from the Comelec Resolution, a suspension or dismissal order against Moreno is expected to be served this week. This event becomes inevitable because Moreno is facing about 100 graft cases in various courts. Well, the election today would matter most to the people of Cagayan De Oro City. Another important event was the substitution of lawyer Nadya Emano as a candidate for the Vice Mayor following the untimely death of his father. Former Cagayan De Oro City Mayor Vicente “Dongkoy” Emano, who was running for the Vice Mayoral post come May 13, 2019 election, died of Pneumonia at age 76. Emano died early morning on May 7, 2019, six days prior to
Cris Diaz
today’s election. Emano, the founder of the Padayon Pilipino, served as provincial governor of Misamis Oriental in 19861995, City Mayor, 19982007, City Vice Mayor in 2007-2010. Again, elected as City Mayor in 2010 until 2013 Amid popular public demand, the Emano family decided to declare Nadya Emano as the substitute of her father’s candidacy. It means that a vote for the late “Dongkoy” Emano would be a vote for Nadya Emano. The coming of Nadya in the mayoral race changes the city’s political setting. A lawyer by profession, Nadya is an incumbent City Councilor for the last nine years. Her experience as a legislator provided her the adequate tools to serve as the City’s Vice Mayor. Today’s election would also prove whether the people would vote for a Mayoral candidate with integrity and credibility. A Mayoral candidate without a case involving graft and corruption as a against a candidate with dozens of See INTEGRITY, page 11

Suzuki Moto Dominates Commuter Underbone Segment, Total Sales Up by 36% in Q1 SUZUKI Motorcycles - a division of Suzuki Philippines Incorporated, and one of the big four Japanese motorcycle manufacturers in the country, showed a strong start in terms of volume sales this 2019 as reflected on Motorcycle Development Program Participants Association, Inc.’s (MDPPA) data. This is after the brand’s 1st quarter sales records indicate a growth of 36%, which is even higher than the total combined sales growth of its members (Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha) posted at 22% versus last year. This very impressive performance also demonstrates that Suzuki, which will be
celebrating its 100th year in 2020, attained the biggest growth of 2% in Philippine market share, among the four Japanese manufacturers compared to 2018. These results are brought about by the brand’s sales achievement in the Underbone and Scooter categories as a by-product of the brand’s integrated sales, marketing and brand communication strategies. The records affirmed Suzuki as now the most preferred Underbone maker in the Philippines, with 45% market share in the said category, due to the steadfast domination of the Underbone King - Raider R150 and the No. 1 Selling
Underbone Motorcycle in the Country (Underbone Leisure Category) - Smash Stylish Colors. The data also shows the very warm welcome of the Filipinos to the Skydrive Sport, which is Suzuki’s latest offer at the Scooter segment. Launched in August last year, this ride is perfect for beginners and young riders, and is instrumental for the Japanese giant’s growth of 357% in the Scooter category. Kicking off the year with this data, Suzuki Philippines Incorporated, which is also one of the top performing markets among all Suzuki motorcycles’ subsidiaries in the world, is off to a bright and optimistic 2019.

PH unemployment rate drops for second straight quarter—SWS
BDO Leasing and Finance, Inc. (BDOLF) posted a two (2) per cent growth in gross revenues to P795 million in 1Q 2019. However, margin compression resulting from the company’s shortterm liabilities adjusting faster to higher interest rates vis-a-vis its lease receivables (which carry rates fixed for three (3) to five (5) years), dragged the bottom line to a net loss of P24 million from P90 million net income in 1Q 2018. To mitigate the impact of higher funding costs, a portion of BDOLF’s loweryielding portfolio was sold, resulting in the ten (10) per cent contraction in its loans and receivables portfolio to R30.9 billion. This transaction eliminated the negative spread on that portion of the portfolio, and coupled with the application of prevailing interest rates to new loan bookings and loan re-pricing of existing loans, should restore margins and improve the bottom line. Moving ahead, the company will continue to capitalize on its Parent Company’s extensive market reach, strengthen client relationships, explore new and untapped markets, and implement balanced growth while maintaining asset quality.
Role of drivers, operators in providing convenient transportation cited By GAIL MOMBLAN
PROVIDING safe and convenient transportation is a public responsibility of drivers and operators, the top official of the Land Transportation and Franchising Board (LTFRB) said on Wednesday. Lawyer Martin Delgra III, LTFRB chairman, said public transport drivers and operators should work with the government in providing the public with convenient and safe transportation through the Public Utility Vehicle
Modernization Program (PUVMP). Delgra graced the inauguration and launching of the modernized public utility jeepneys (PUJ) at Iloilo City Alliance Operators and Drivers Transport Cooperative (ICAODTC) office and garage in Sambag village in this city’s Jaro district. Seven of the newly-inaugurated modernized PUJs are expected to ply four initial routes here starting next week, Delga said. “This program of the government that started
in January will continue,” Delgra said in an interview. Addressing the drivers and operators, Delgra said the implementation of the PUJ modernization will continue despite the opposition of some transport groups. “We in the government are pushing for this because we think and we believe that this is good for the country. As you (drivers and operators) embrace the modernization program, you embrace the public responsibility to provide
public service to our common stakeholder who is there outside waiting for a ride,” he said. Delgra said the modernized PUJs address the standards on safety of the riding public as it has Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) and dash cameras. C ompared to other jeepneys, the modernized PUJs are more spacious and can provide extra convenience to the riding public. Delgra added that the modernized jeepneys are environmental-friendly ve-
hicles that can help in the implementation of the Clean Air Act of 1999. Francisco Milla Jr., Regional Executive Director of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in Western Visayas, said the modernized PUJs uses the Euro 4 standard. The Euro 4 standard can lessen the pollution coming from vehicles as it reduces the toxic sulphur by 450 parts per million (ppm); reduces benzene by 4 percent; and reduces carbon dioxide emission that contributes to
climate change, he said. “The Clean Air Act 1999, which is one of the priority agenda of the DENR, will finally be implemented,” he said. Delgra lauded President Rodrigo Duterte for the implementation of the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program that drivers and operators “had long been waiting for.” Aside from Iloilo, the modernization program will be implemented in all regions in the country, he said.

from page 8 means possible to resolve this squabble. We are not against other businesses. But we are definitely against name-grabbing and name-using. This needs to stop,” LYR Group stressed. P7 Marketing apparently has a Facebook page under the name Perfect Save’n Marketing followed by 1,892 people as of Friday evening. Its office, said one of its post, “is located at corner Osmeña St. and National Highway second floor above American Surplus fronting Emcor” in Tagum City. Its earliest posts were dawn of April 25 as it updated its profile and cover pictures. Shortly after, it posted a promo dubbed “X6 your money with a twist..” It cited as an example that if one invests P50,000 in P7, he will receive 300% of his money, or P150,000, in “more or less 30 days.” The other 300% will be reinvested in P7 with a lock-in period of six months. “The company will pay you an interest of 30% monthly for your remaining investment,” P7 said. “P45,000 monthly up to five months then when your contract ends in six months the company will give you the remaining 300% (P150,000),” P7 claimed. “Within six months you gain P525,000,” it added. MindaNews was able to talk to an agent of P7 Marketing but requested not to be identified. A public school teacher, the agent said that P7 Marketing is one of the investment companies in Tagum City that offers easy cash to would-be investors. He insists the company is affiliated with LYR Marketing even though the latter denied ties with P7 Marketing. The agent said P7 was launched in Tagum last May 7 at Penny Lane Hotel and Casino. To entice investors, P7 Marketing assures their investors that their money will be earning a huge interest for a month since the company is engaged in money trading, the agent said. Meanwhile, the Aquino Medical Specialists Hospital Inc. (AMSHI) also issued similar warning, noting that the hospital has not been part of these investment companies mushrooming in Tagum. “The board and management of the Aquino Medical Specialists Hospital Inc. (AMSHI) hereby inform its stakeholders and the general public that we are in no way connected to, an affiliate with or a member of any company or corporation in Tagum City and elsewhere engaged in payin and pay-out investment schemes,” the hospital wrote in a Facebook post Tuesday afternoon. The hospital, however, did not specifically identify the investment company where it is rumored to be associated with. (Mart Sambalud/ MindaNews)

from page 8 Atty Escobarte viewed the GGP classroom building project as factor of “reinvigorating the importance of education” as it realized “the aspiration of the people of this barangay to have their children provided with quality education.” “This new school building not only improves the environment of learning but
symbolically opens new space of hopes of teachers and learners,” he said. Along the same line of thought, Dr. Fadul threw a challenge to the school administrator and teachers of Del Pilar Elementary School to raise the academic performance of students in an effort to maximize the benefits that the new school facility is providing. She also asked the barangay officials of Del Pilar to help the school administration protect and take care of the new classroom building “for the benefit of other children in the future.” (PIA XI-JDA)

The DOT-XI regional director said they are working very hard to sustain the route. “We’re set to meet with people from Doha, Qatar Airways will be bringing in media from different places actually there will be media coming from the U.S. We will be working together with the different agencies, travel agencies, tour operators and we’re trying to strengthen our Halal Program,” Rabat-Tan said.

Currently the Davao Region has only five certified halal establishments and with the coming flights from Doha there is a need to expand the number of halal establishments to service anticipated tourists from Qatar.

from page 3 “It’s not only SM that can make things happen. Parents and guardians, you can help encourage and support your kids to do well. Students, please commit and believe that you can – it’s a mindset. Congratulations and welcome to the SM Family!” said Harley Sy addressing the new SM scholars and their parents. Sio also urged the students to focus on their studies and strive hard to achieve their dreams, the same tenets that drove Tatang to greatness. To date, the program has already produced 3,274 college scholar-graduates from its inception in 1993. SM scholars who have finished their degrees are now employed and helping their families, some of whom are employed under the SM Group of Companies. Founded on Tatang Henry Sy, Sr.’s belief that education is the greatest equalizer, the program aims to provide thousands of Filipino youth the chance for a better future through higher education. Tatang believed that if he could help send one child to school, that child can then help his or her siblings finish schooling and together, they can help uplift their family out of poverty.
Farewell...
from page 4 parents and siblings belonged to the upper class in Tagoloan. I knew that he was in Class ’59 of St. Mary’s High School and I knew most of his classmates. Political future
Monday, May 13, 2019 Emano’s classmates were either my teachers like Ray Abejo and Nora Lim or my neighbor like Sylvia Gaccion or my aunt Thelma Casiño or former regional director Arlene Bibanco-Pantanosas of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR),Lamberte Yap,to name a few. Emano graduated from Tagoloan Central School and was a classmate of my maternal uncle Dorico Espellarga. My Tio Decoy told me once he called Dongkoy” Inteng Botikol”. Even as I observed him from afar, I sensed that Emano prepared for his political future. The mayoral seat in Tagoloan town was only the beginning and he eyed the gubernatorial seat of Misamis Oriental. When I transferred to a city court, Emano was appointed governor of the province. We met when I started reporting for Gold Star Daily. Maybe he saw my banner stories and asked about me to see if I worked in the judiciary before. We were reconnected again and it was as if he knew me for a long time. I left GSD and was now with RMN dxCC where I would always get a call from the governor’s office. *********** What happened next I would write in the days to come. There is a lot to tell. The narrative is long and rich, spanning his journey to Cagayan de Oro City hall and me heading to COC TV. And in between somehow our lives intertwined over the course of our respective destinies. In the meantime let us give the Emano family time to grieve for their loss. Emano’s ashes were scheduled to be brought to the Sta. Maria Catholic Church this Saturday May 11. I sincerely pray for the eternal repose of the soul of the distinguished man that Tagoloan produced. I grieve for all his charm, his brilliance and for all his outstanding triumphs that made Tagoloan as great as the sons and daughters it had produced. Farewell and rest in peace, Alas.

Alonto...
from page 1 Macatbar-Alonto said in a phone interview with this paper. Mrs. Alonto said the secretary’s illness was triggered when he attended an event of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) in Region 10 at the NEDA Building in Cagayan de Oro City on April 16 as keynote speaker. The elevator of the NEDA Building was not working so he has to use the stairs, according to Mrs. Alonto. “He have to catch up his assistant and the head of NEDA Mindanao Office who are both younger... They are walking faster. When he arrived at
the 3rd floor he asked for a rostrum, he said he was feeling dizzy and he can’t breath,” Macatbar-Alonto recalled in a phone interview with the Inquirer. Mrs. Alonto said after the meeting, the secretary had to rush down stairs to meet some Muslim leaders and when he arrived at their hotel room, he has immediately laid down to bed. The wife recalled that on the next day (April 17) the secretary was admitted in a hospital in Cagayan de Oro City. On April 21, his doctor advised the family to bring him to Manila for further treatment but instead of going straight to the hospital, Sec. Alonto had to quickly attend a meeting. “He is very workaholic, very meticulous. He doesn’t stop working even if he was in the hospital because he wanted to finish what he started,” Mrs. Alonto said. The last few works the secretary was working even in the hospital were the Agroeconomic Zone, the Free-port Industrial Economic Zone in Tawi-tawi, the International standard airport in Picong, Lanao del Sur, the River Basin and the Mindanao Railway System. “Even in the hospital, he was talking to me that when get out from the hospital, he will be pushing for the implementation of these projects,” Mrs. Alonto said. Sec. Alonto was appointed in MinDA on September 9, 2016. He was the first Muslim chair of MinDA. The constitution said he has six terms that would end in 2022. Alonto was elected as vice mayor of Marawi City in 1972 to 1974 and served as acting mayor in 1974 before he joined the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF).
Violet...
from page 1 Emano, 76, was running for the Vice Mayoral post in Cagayan De Oro City under the coalition political party of the Padayon Pilipino (the regional political party that Emano founded in the mid80’s) and the Centrist Democratic Party (CDP), at the time of his death on May 7, 2019, six days prior to the election on May 13, 2019. Emano also served as provincial governor of Misamis Oriental in 1986 until 1995. Elected Cagayan De Oro City 1998-2007, 2010-2013. Elected Vice Mayor of Cagayan De Oro City 2007-2010. Thousands of people, waving violet flags, handkerchiefs and clothes lined along the highways of Claro M. Recto Avenue as Emano ashes was transported from his residential house in Sta.Cecilia Village, Gusa, Cagayan De Oro toward the municipal town of Tagolo-an, 30 kilometers east of the city. From the family residence, the dilapidated black pickup vehicle that Emano used during his term as a public official for 33 years, carried the ashes placed in an urn, which was driven directly to the Candelaria Church of Tagolo-an. Emano’s only son, Yevgeny Vincente “Bambi” Emano, the incumbent provincial governor, delivered the family message to the thousands of people who joined the funeral and attended the “requiem mass” Saturday morning. In his eulogy, the young
Emano disclosed that his father did not wish to be laid on a wake because he wanted to be cremated and be buried immediately after his death. Placed in an adorned porcelain, Emano’s ashes was placed in a special box beside the grave of her daughter “Nenotchka” who died in a car crash in Tagolo-an almost 20 years ago. However, during the remaining days in the hospital, “my father changed his mind and agreed to a three-day wake hoping that the flower vendors in front of the St. Augustine Cathedral in Cagayan De Oro City could earn,” Emano said. He said that his father loved the poor and the less fortunate that he preferred to live a simple life and has never bought a new car since he became a public servant. A radio reporter described the flowers offered to the late Emano as enormous and unbelievable since it took seven dump tracks to haul all the flowers sent during the wake of Emano. “My father’s last instruction was to care for the poor and the oppressed and provide them in whatever capacity the chance for them to enjoy a brighter future,” Gov. Emano said. He said that the Padayon Pilipino has adopted the color violet as the official color because it denotes the sufferings of the poor and the less privilege. “You must use the color violet because every time you see it, you will be reminded of your obligation to the poor and the oppressed,” the young Emano said. It for the reason that after a public demand, the family has decided to proclaim my younger sister, lawyer and City Councilor Nadya Emano, as the substitute of my father’s vacated Vice Mayoral post come May 13, 2019 election. In appealing for support for Nadya’s candidacy, Emano said that he believed that Nadya could efficiently perpetuate the aspiration of his father as a servant of the poor, the desolate, and the oppressed masses.

from page 1 of Hijo’s founder, my father, Jose “Boy” Tuason, in nation and capacity building that is sustainable and inclusive,” said Rosanna Tuason-Fores, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Through the years, Hijo has been focused on strengthening and modernizing its existing core businesses in Agribusiness, Property Development, Leisure and Tourism, and Port and Logistics. Today Hijo leverages on its collaborative leadership model towards taking a major step in revolutionizing agriculture and decommoditizing the banana. Not only will it impact the communities it operates in but, more broadly, benefitting the region, Mindanao and the nation as a whole. With this project, Hijo will be creating value for all the stakeholders and cultivating a culture of corporate social responsibility by uplifting the lives of farmers and their families. “We are committed and will persevere in delivering Hijo’s promise. My father’s FELICE (food, education, livelihood, identity, clothing and equity) Principles were born in Hijo and continues to live today” said Tuason-Fores. The facility is expected to be ready for production in
11
another 12 to 15 months. “The economics is very simple. If you sell a certain volume of bananas, you get USD$4. But if you take the same volume of bananas and sell them as a high value added product like banana flour, you get USD$22, or easily five times the value to the benefit of everyone in the supply chain.” said project consultant Deb Mazumdar of Singapore-based boutique tech consulting firm Optimax. “This is very timely because we will be putting up a new market site close to the project site on a lot owned by the city government which as of now is being used as a satellite public market.” said Tagum City Mayor Allan T. Rellon in an interview at the Tagum City Hall following the ground breaking. Ramon B. Segismundo, President and Chief Operations Officer, said this project is but one of a critical few in the master planned township of the Hijo estate which aims to transform Hijo into a world class portfolio of different businesses with an environmental and social impact. “With respect to our customers and markets, we are starting the transition today--from being a company that sells what it produces, to a company that is truly customer-centric with our customers’ needs and wants for natural products as our guide. We may not be the largest at this stage, but I can assure you that we could be one of the best,” Segismundo stressed. “With my commitment in accelerating Hijo’s transformation towards a globally competitive organization, we are laying the time capsule as a cornerstone for the upcoming development giving messages of hope and visions for the future,” Tuason-Fores added.
