Bounty for Tawee’s killer raised to P4 million By JOEL CALAMBA ESCOL Managing Editor
CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - The reward money for any individual who can provide information, which will eventually lead to arrest of the gunman and his cohort in the killing of Barangay Councilor Sherwin “Tawee” Uy and caretaker Samual Pabalan, is now raised to P4-Million.
This, after the Uy’s family friends, business associates and political supporters have chipped in money to increase the bounty for the speedy resolution of the murder. On November 11, this year, a motorcycle ridingin-tandem suspects went to the quarry site of the Uy’s in the outskirts between Barangays Pagatpat San
Simon and shot dead Tawee and his caretaker. One of the suspects acted as lookout while the gunman immediately went to Kagawad Tawee who was resting at a swivel chair and without provocation shot him six times which caused his untimely demise. The gunman also killed his caretaker and immediately fled from the crime scene.
Hundreds of bats found in Camiguin town amid pandemic By GERRY LEE GORIT Correspondent
CATARMAN, CAMIGUIN – A colony of bats, numbering about more than 500, was found by authorities in the middle of Barangay Poblacion of this town as local government officials are now putting up measures to save these flying mammals. Camiguin is known far and wide for its white beaches, resorts, islands, springs, waterfalls, dive sites, Cemetery, among others.
Local executives believe that the presence of the more than 500 golden crown flying fox or “kabug” in Poblacion will become an added attraction in Camiguin. Its scientific name is Acerodon jubatus and the environment department has classified as critically endangered. According to the locals, the colony of bats has started to settle on two tall trees around eight years ago. The trees stand near the barangay road in the center
of the village where clusters of houses, public market, grocery stores and dining establishments are located. Don Quililan, forest technician at the Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office (PENRO) in Camiguin, said the kind of bats in that live in Catarman are considered as the largest in the Philippines. Quililan said that killing a critically endangered animal such as “kabug” is punishable by law, with See FOUND, page 11

Moreno said the brutal, cruel, barbaric and senseless killings on November 11 of Kagawad Uy and his caretaker must be condemned in the strongest possible terms. “I ask the peace-loving Cagayanons to join me in urging the speedy and complete solutions of those killings, ” the City Mayor said.
He said when he heard about the killings he immediately proceeded to the site of the crime to get an idea how it happened and he observed there was no security guard in the premises. He said that Kagawad Tawee Uy was absolutely unaware and even unsuspecting of the cruelty that See BOUNTY, page 11

Lacson questions P5B Bayanihan 2 funds used for farm-to-market road projects By CHRISTIA MARIE RAMOS Reporter
MANILA, Philippines — Senator Panfilo Lacson flagged the P5-billion funding used for farm-tomarket road projects under the agriculture stimulus package of the Bayanihan to Recover as One Act or the Bayanihan 2, questioning the connection of such projects to the government response to the pandemic. “We noticed releases under Bayanihan 2 focused on farm-to-market roads worth P5 billion. Can you explain the connection between these farm-tomarket road releases and
the government’s COVID response? Parang hindi ko ma-connect (I cannot seem to make the connection),” Lacson said during the plenary debates on the proposed 2022 budget of the Department of Agriculture (DA) on Monday. In response, Senator Cynthia Villar, who sponsored the DA’s budget, surmised it could be for improving logistics, which elicited laughter inside the Senate session hall. “We laugh about this but this is no joking matter. This is the national budget of the Republic of the Philippines,” Lacson
remarked. Lacson further questioned the 17-percent increase in the DA’s funding for Agri-Machinery, Equipment, Facilities, and Infrastructure program from P11.3 billion to P13.32 billion. He noted that the bulk of the increase went to farm-to-market roads, which increased from P4.98 billion under the National Expenditure Program submitted by the executive to Congress to P6.95 billion under the House version of the budget bill. When asked about such
MGB EMBARKS ON SUBSIDENCE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENT The Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has expanded its Geohazard Assessment and Mapping Program to include subsidence susceptibility assessment due to sinkhole collapse in areas of the country that are characterized by karst topography. This came after the 7.2 magnitude Bohol earthquake on October 2013. Karst topography is a landscape characterized by features indicating dissolution of underlying soluble rocks by surface or groundwater. These soluble rocks are mostly carbonate rocks consisting of limestone and dolomite. Subsidence is the lowering or sinking of the ground surface. Sinkhole collapse is one of the causes of subsidence hazard. The causes of sinkhole collapse include: Gravity (the overlying material is pulled down towards the cavity): Ground shaking due to earthquake (the overlying material is weakened, causing sinkhole collapse); Sinkhole flooding (percolating water speeds up erosion of overlying material towards the cavity); Lowering of water table (hydrostatic pressure from the water table decreases weakening the overlying material); and Ponding of underground water (water from the stagnant underground river supersaturates the material in the cavity causing instability of the overlying materials). Subsidence due to sinkhole collapse is one of the most dangerous geologic hazards because of its extreme unpredictability. Sinkholes are dramatic because the land usually stays intact for a while until the underground spaces just get too big. If there is not enough support for the land above the spaces then a sudden collapse of the land surface can occur. These collapses can be small or they can be huge and can occur where a house or road is on top. This information can be used by local government planners and individual landowners to make decisions on where to build dwellings and other structures.

increases, the DA denied being looped into the details of the projects. This, Lacson stressed, is a “perennial problem” for agencies like the DA getting additional funds for projects like farm-tomarket roads but not being consulted about them.
“There are other priorities when they prepare the budget to answer the budget call. They were tedious in preparing the budget,” the senator noted. “Now, all of a sudden, at the snap of a finger, nawala ang budget, nalipat kung saan (with the funds being
transferred elsewhere). This is a perennial problem,” he added. Lacson, meanwhile, reiterated his call for proper funding for agriculture research and development, noting DA Secretary William Dar is also an advocate of research. EDV

Coping in the New Normal for Teachers By: ALEX ABEJERO VENTERO Teacher III Agusan Elementary School
A drastic change has come to consume the entire world lately. People across the globe have an amount of share on the pandemic brought to us by COVID 19. Many things have changed from the normal nature of work, the pace of economics and even to the new practice of education. Without equitable collaboration from teachers, parents, and students, the Philippines’ new normal education would be jeopardized. Without the involvement of parents, instructors and students may not be able to provide a highquality education. Everyone must have a role to play and
be aware of it. The fundamental aims of parents are to keep an eye on, motivate, and lead their children, even in small ways. It is increasingly regarded a musthave for parents to provide their children with more possibilities to investigate things on their own in their “class-home.” You must first define your vision if you wish to cope with the ‘New Normal’ teaching. You must determine what you want to happen or whether you must do anything. We must recognize our skills and shortcomings if we are to manage with this scenario. We must assess if we are capable of doing so or whether we choose to continue our education
despite the epidemic. Setting your vision will provide you with a clear picture of what you want to accomplish. We each have our own strategies for dealing with the ‘New Normal’ of schooling and teaching. The things you do to survive the hurdles of these new educational platforms are expressions of your enthusiasm and dedication to follow your ambitions despite the difficulties we are now facing. Never lose sight of the goal you’ve set for yourself; it’s your road map to success. Continue to recognize and value your efforts and sacrifices; you’re doing a great job. Let us continue to pursue our goals while fostering our professional well-being as educators.

VALENCIA CITY, BUKIDNON, October 29 - The Department of Agriculture Regional Field Office 10 (DA-RFO 10) distributed rice seeds and fertilizer amounting to P90.45 million to rice farmers of Valencia City, Bukidnon, in time for the dry planting season. Of the total amount, P67.64 million worth of said agri inputs comprises 700 bags of inbred seeds at 40 kilos per bag, and 13,305 bags of hybrid rice seeds, with each bag containing 15 (for private hybrid) or 18 kilos ( for public hybrid) of seeds. Complementing the handover of rice seeds, 22,805 bags of inorganic fertilizers costing P22.805 million were also distributed. For every hectare, a farmer can receive 1 bag of high quality seed and 3 bags of
fertilizer for hybrid and 2 bags for inbred. Around 4K rice farmers will benefit from the said agri inputs from the 26 barangays of the said town. Chona H. Nacalaban, DA-RFO 10 Rice program focal person said, that the agency continues to pursue initiatives anchored on its battlecry, “Masaganang Ani, Mataas na Kita”, which envisions smallholder Filipino farmers to become more prosperous by doubling their incomes. Valencia City known as the ‘City of Golden Harvest’ has an estimated 10,000 hectares planted to rice, which is a quarter of the 40,000-hectare rice production area of Bukidnon, and with an average yield of more or less 5 tons per hectare. “The provincial government supports

Coastal Communities Now Hungry & the Poorest
NO less than Dr. Kent Carpenter, the President of the United Nations, Food and Agriculture Organization IUN-FAO) had described the Philippine Archipelago before as “the center of the center of marine life on earth.” Wow, so amazing! The fisherfolk in Macajalar Bay who were active members of Task Force Macajalar were narrating to me how rich the bay was as fishes would literally jump into their “bancas” in the “50s. Just like the other ecosystems – be forest, agricultural lands oozing with natural wealth – our fishery and marine resources can also be described as part of the “lost eden!” In fact, of the thirteen (13) major bays in the country, 10 are already biologically dead; of the 25 major rivers, 15 have already dried-up or polluted! Why? Well, everyone knows that the Philippine Archipelago has just become a dumping ground of toxic garbage from other countries especially from China, Australia, Japan and Korea. We have a very weak Marine Force that has no capacity to guard fully our vast archipelago as glaringly shown by what’s happening in the West Philippine sea now as Chinese vessels are fishing our sea
without let-up just what the Japanese trawlers were doing during the martial law years. Having founded the Task Force Macajalar in the 90’s to protect the bay and the forest ecosystem, may I now share the silent killers of the bay as well as the other bays in the country. The onset of the rains that is battering Mindanao saw dead fishes floating in the bay particularly near the mouths of the rivers. The culprit are the toxic chemicals coming from the surrounding vast plantations that are heavily using pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers. Based on my research, of the 8 chemicals being used in these plantations, 7 are already banned in other countries particularly in Puerto Rico. In fact, some of these plantations operating in Mindanao were not allowed to enter Puerto Rico “for causing cancer” especially to the agricultural workers, the reason why they opted to enter our country especially Mindanao where some two hundred thousand hectares, choicest of lands, have been transformed into massive plantations. I was so shocked to know that these massive vast plantations are using chemicals
Orlan R. Ravanera
that as if they are dumping to our water tables some two thousand dump trucks of toxic chemicals every day. That‘s the reason why many of new born babies are deformed or why many Mindanawons are dying of cancer. When I visited these countries where these plantations are barred to enter, they asked why we allowed them? Well, the conclusion is that the Philippines is a “nation of coward people.” These non-biodegradable petroleum-based agricultural inputs are washed from the soil into the rivers and into the bays. Pity the fish but pity more Macajalar Bay. Every time I see Macajalar Bay, I remember the lines of the beautiful poem which begins with “Rage, rage, rage against the dying of the light …” Deep inside I feel the pain and the anger not because of the “dying of the light” but in the impending death of an ecosystem, the natural world of Macajalar Bay whose beauty is both awesome and humbling. The grandeur that is Macajalar Bay from Sulawan Point in Laguindingan to Punta Gorda in Balingasag, See HUNGRY, page 11
Have my say
BOOMERANG KIDS
SO I see myself trying too - it’s difficult to write about any topic in our daily life without mentioning COVID-19. I observe it within my own family in the Philippines. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many young people to move back in with their parents. Their lives have been turned upside down, and they’ve had to come to grips with feelings of failure and guilt. Being forced to move back home can lead to depression for some young people. Boomerang children, or boomerang kids, are terms used to describe the phenomenon of an adult child returning home to live with their parents for economic reasons after a period of independent living. In my own family, the elderly tried to help as much as they could. The strong family ties are really amazing for me as a German expatriate living in the Philippines for good since 23 years now. Some of my inlaws are staying abroad and trying to survive as much as they can. Young people were hit particularly hard by the pandemic — especially those who had to move back in with their parents. For them
the pandemic has meant a hit to their studies, more stress and a total loss of autonomy. Homeschooling has students at their limits. The situation varies across Europe i.e., when it comes to young adults choosing to live with their parents. That was the state of affairs before the pandemic as well: whereas early independence is the norm for Scandinavians. EU statistics show that a different culture exists in southern and southeastern Europe. Every region has its own financial and cultural conditions. Still teaching many times I feel like a man giving a lecture in an empty room, filmed for broadcast online, standing next to a TV screen while interacting and communicating with my students is very difficult. Bad or no internet connections makes it more difficult. Various factors can have an impact on when and how young adults choose to set out on their own, from the job market, the familiar comforts of home and even tradition. But regardless of the circumstances, it’s clear that one group has suffered disproportionately during the pandemic. Marginalized people, for
Klaus Doring
instance those belonging to the LGBTIQ+ community, find it more difficult than others to cope with the situation at home. Similarly, lower income families living in small quarters have had to come to grips with the increased potential for conflict. India i.e. fears ‘lost generation’ of students. Jennifer Caputo, a sociologist at the University of Chicago who has surveyed “boomerang kids” in the United States, found that those who were forced to return due to COVID, in particular, more frequently showed symptoms of depression. Economic and social independence, as well as the simple fact of living in one’s own space, she voiced out, are seen as important steps for a successful transition to adulthood. If those goals aren’t achieved, she said, those affected may suffer from feelings of failure. For some of my nieces and nephews, being back home wasn’t easy. It certainly was a stressful situation.

Leadership : Essential in Making Leaders Around You by: CYDEL P. VALMORES
Leadership to Dr. Myles Munroe was the ULTIMATE thing. You have to influence people through inspiration not manipulation. People must be inspired to do things. Leadership is the capacity to deploy people and not employ people. Good leaders employ, great leaders deploy. Leaders push people to become who they really are. When a leader understood the vital in leadership, then he will be multiplying that
CIVIL CASE NO.2021-114
kind of indispensable leadership that the people needs. We must know how to stand as a pillar of strength in the midst of so much windblown confusion that is ripping apart in organizations. The commitment to integrity and passion that turn into action is a joy to behold. Leaders must equip himself or herself & know the mechanics in the process of shaping people to become leaders which seems to be very simple & practical. This
is broken into five steps, according to John C. Maxell that we must: Say it: explain the task, Show it: demonstrate how to perform the task. Assign it: let the other person attempt the task. Study it: observe how the person performed the task. Assess it: offer feedback based on the person’s performance. In doing so, then we can see that we are multiplying that ultimate thing.

speaks well for itself. But the same grandeur is now fast disappearing as it undergoes progressive state of impairment and with it, the marginalization of the coastal populace. In the opening lines of the poem, ‘Charge of the Light Brigade,”there are cannons at the left of them, cannons at the right of them, cannons facing them”. Such is also true in Macajalar Bay, not cannons but vast plantations. Every day, these plantations are applying chemicals at every stage: applying Nematicide during land preparation, Phosphoric Acid (fungicide), Actara (insecticide) and Duiron and Promacil (herbicide) during pre-planting. Immediately after planting, they apply Duiron and Ametryne. Tons and tons of chemical fertilizers are applied as basal then bombarding the growing crops with foliar fertilizer at 1,500 kgs. per hectare. There are about 48,000 hectares of plantations surrounding Macajalar Bay, multiply these by 1,500 kgs. you imagine 100 trucks dumping chemicals every day in Macajalar Bay as ultimately, these chemicals find their way into the bay and of course, into our water table as these toxic chemicals are non-biodegradable.These toxic chemicals are ingested by fish that cause their sudden death, and if the fish survive with carcinogenic elements in them, these are bio-magnified that find their way into our bodies when we eat fish. Are you still wondering why many are dying of cancer in Cagayan de Oro? Indeed, these poisonous chemicals poison sea life and even entered food chains. Many of our fisherfolk can attest to the fact that when it rains, many fish float dead in the rivers and in the sea. Worse, we strongly suspect that the water table may already be contaminated by these toxic chemicals. In fact, no less than the former Regional Executive Director of the DENR, my best friend, Dr. Raoul Geollegue claims that our drinking water may have been contaminated already. If that be so, then, we can aptly say, “drink now, die later.” Following the precautionary principle, we in Task Force Macajalar have been clamoring that our water table be examined as the Cagay-anons may be drinking or bathing or using water for cooking which are already contaminated with these toxic chemicals. But until now, such plea falls on deaf ears. One day, the people of Cagayan de Oro will wake-up and only then that such horrible reality be promptly checked or face the collective anger of the deceived people. As if these chemicals are not yet enough to kill the bay, there are other death blows such as industrial pollution as the bay is treated by surrounding industries as their waste pit. The bay is also a victim of soil erosion and siltation. What men do in the uplands affects the life in the sea. Because trees were logged by the powerful loggers which left hundred thousands of hectares denuded, soil has been eroding and washing in the silted rivers and into the bay. The eroded soil or silts has harmed sea life, coral reefs and cause fish and other organisms to die. Our fisherfolk and their families have been painfully witnessing the fading away of the bay’s fishery and aquatic resources. They are vehemently condemning the massive ecological degradation as such deprives them of their legitimate livelihood. Let us not sacrifice the Bay to the altar of greed and profit. Indeed, as has been said, “only when you have cut the last tree, only when you have dried the last river, only when you have caught the last fish, only then will you realize that you cannot eat your money.” We must now be one and stand to protect Macajalar Bay, and all the bays in the Philippines as the coastal communities are now hungry and becoming the poorest of the poor.

lists they have are considered confidential and that lists containing names of personalities involved in illegal drugs are thoroughly validated and not for public consumption. During the city council session on Monday, the majority of the councilors allied with Moreno and Uy protested when one of their members, Councilor Zaldy Ocon, allegedly read a list from President Rodrigo Duterte bearing the names of the mayor and the representative. In his defense, Ocon via Zoom conference told his fellow councilors in the session hall and online that he was not accusing Uy of being a drug lord, as he merely read the list on air on his radio program that was also streamed online last week. “I watched (looked at) the record, this is the reason, ‘Number 45’ is Klarex. How true is this (I only asked), (he) should answer this (allegation),” he said. Ocon claimed he called Moreno about the list, and the latter supposedly said that it might have been referring to a relative. In the previous national and midterm elections, Ocon has been an ally of Moreno and Uy until lately when local officials have filed their candidacy in October for the 2022 polls. Meanwhile, in the same radio interview, Councilor Ian Nascaya, the council’s majority floor leader, said a committee of the whole led by Councilor Romeo Calizo has been formed to investigate the authenticity of the list. He said they have already invited Ocon to present his documents and related evidence. Nascaya expressed suspicion over the sudden surfacing of the list, especially with the 2022 elections fast approaching. In a separate interview with reporters Tuesday, Uy’s son, Vice Mayor Rainier Joaquin Uy, expressed his appreciation to the city council for looking into the controversy. (PNA)

determine issues and concerns that we encountered for the past year and come up with the possible recommendations or suggestions in resolving it.” The highlights of the congress were the discussions on the national, regional, provincial, municipal, and barangay Mandanas RulingImplications to agriculture. Director Bernadette San Juan of DA-field operations emphasized, “the 40%-60% local and national tax collection sharing still applies in Mandanas Ruling in which there is no major changes in terms of the implementation of certain local programs or services, including agriculture and fisheries sectors”. “Only the increase of tax collection shares of local government

Accordingly, grouping together of the crops, livestock and/or fish producers within a community or adjacent communities on the basis of proximity of their production areas, similarity of inputs, shared production activities or common final products could be a potential for unified management of production activities, source of inputs, access to financing, processing, logistics, storage, marketing and enhanced quality of produce. Mr. Ducusin, however, presented the Agriculture Financing Program and he explained the financing process, lending scheme, and opportunities in the Agriculture Credit Policy Council (ACPC) to avail of the financing capital in agri-business ventures, especially during this time of Covid-19 pandemic. Youths, former overseas workers, and farmers, which are enthusiast in agri-business could easily avail of the financing services of the ACPC from Php25,000.00 to Php15-M worth of loan, with no collateral, Zero (0) to less interest and payable for 5 up to 10 years,” Ducusin said.

would happen to him in that fateful daylight attack of the suspects. “The perpetrator, together with the brains, must be held to account for these dastardly acts,” Mayor Moreno warned, adding that the City Government of Cagayan de Oro is willing to shell out a Two Million bounty to anyone who can provide information that would lead to the arrest of the suspects. INVESTIGATION In a local radio station interview, Major Ivan Viñas said investigation is now ongoing and they are considering many angles which pinpoint the main motives of killing the eldest son of Rep Rolanda Uy. Viñas said the Cagayan de Oro City Police Organization (COCPO) is now conducting a massive and no-nonsense probe on the shooting incident. He said based on their investigation, there were two suspicious looking persons who were seen by witnesses in the area prior to the shooting of Kag Tawee Uy and his caretaker. The police official said a taskforce investigating the incident is now being created with the help of CIDG and other police units. Meanwhile, it was also learned that the National Bureau of Investigation is also conducting its separate investigation.

penalty of up to P2 million. Catarman Mayor Kiterio Antonion Palarca II said the bat colony has the potential to become a rare tourist attraction in his town. The mayor said the municipal legislative council has crafted an ordinance that would declare the colony’s habitat as a protected sanctuary. To ensure that the bats will
stay put, Palarca said they have to see to it that aside from prohibiting loud noises, the trees that they live in must never be cut down or their branches trimmed. He said the bats’ food of choice are mango, nuts from talisay or tropical almond trees, lanzones, which are abundant in the island, and other wild fruits. Palarca said that the residents have been aware of the bats’ presence that whenever they fly out in the middle of the day, he sends in the police to check if someone has disturbed them. The bats’ presence in Poblacion is a living proof that we are protecting our environment. Imagine, they chose to live among people than in the wilderness, he added. Quililan said the PENRO has been conducting information drive to inform the residents that the golden crown flying fox is “critically endangered” due to its low population. In a statement, Camiguin Gov. Jurdin Jesus Romualdo said Camiguin is blessed with a diverse flora and fauna, thanks to its people’s vigilance and care for the environment. “ These bats will become an added attraction to our island’s tourism industry. Now, our guests, especially environmentalists and wildlife lovers, will have more reason to visit Camiguin,” Romualdo added.

that corruption will be avoided by knowing where your taxes go, but also empowers all of you to participate in the affairs of our government,” he added.

RESILIENCY: A key against COVID-19 JENNIFER N. CHAN Administrative Officer II Mahinog District
An alarming situation is definitely what people feel in this global pandemic. With the rise of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), cases reached 2,000,000 and more than 33,000 of these were confirmed dead in the country. It has had a tangible impact on how this COVID-19 affected our economy. Thus, we live in a world where actions that help us to overcome fears, and our combat weapons should be endless to easily smash this unprecedented deadly virus. According to the Department of Health (DOH), the Interagency Task Force Technical Working Group on Anticipatory and Forward Planning (IATF-TWG for AFP) was led by the National Economic and Development Authority to examine the impact of COVID-19 and the Enhanced Community Quarantine on the economy and make recommendations for adapting to the “new normal” Furthermore, various families are suffering from poverty because people are losing jobs. Not just the health sector, but all sectors endure the effects of COVID-19. The government’s presence is very necessary to implement interventions that assist the needs and wants of citizens. In addition, they must create efficient programs to optimize economic development, support activities against COVID-19 and help those regions that are highly at risk and exposed to the virus. Moreover, in the report “We Recover as One” developed by the
IATF-TWG for AFP, it is stated that the new normal for several sectors is explained, as well as ideas for mitigating the socioeconomic impact of COVID-19. In general, after the Extended Community Quarantine is removed, this new normal entails the restoration of activity in many sectors in light of the ongoing threat of COVID-19. It is evident that before we continue to do these things, we must remind ourselves to follow the three steps of fighting this virus in order to achieve the idea and vision of this new normal. Firstly, set yourself an example. You should be the eyes of everybody. Be responsible enough to take actions and be a role model for every human being. This Coronavirus is killing people and all aspects of life. Our challenges are greater if we are determined to reduce this problem. We can use social media to disseminate reliable information so that people will get the right details and correct data. Additionally, changes start within ourselves and by doing this, it can generate a huge influence on others in coping with this COVID-19. Secondly, apply the protocols implemented by IATF to your Local Government Unit (LGU). Wearing a face mask and a face shield are salient to avoid being infected by this virus. It is part of a comprehensive strategy of measures to help limit the spread of some respiratory diseases. Social (Physical) distancing must be strictly observed to keep a distance of at least one meter from each other and keep away from crowded places. Regularly easy and disinfect surfaces and gadgets which are touched often. And the primary preventive measure to
prevent the spread of infection is to stay at home. Don’t go outside if it is unnecessary, except for the people who are working to supply the daily needs of each family. There are more precautionary measures to follow, but these are the most common. We know that these are not guaranteed to directly stop COVID-19, but it will be helpful to minimize the cases. And last, but definitely not the least. Thirdly, get yourself vaccinated. We know vaccination is a choice, but the existence of modern technology matters. The vaccine creators proved that it is effective by trying to get vaccinated themselves. In the study of experts, clinical trials have shown that the COVID-19 vaccine considerably reduces the risk of catching the virus, and the vaccine has been authorized based on those findings. Even if you do get the virus, the COVID-19 vaccine, based on what has been proven about vaccines for other diseases, may help you avoid becoming extremely ill. Vaccination may also protect those in your immediate vicinity — particularly those at greater risk for severe illness from COVID-19. In conclusion, we can’t do all these things without resiliency. Being resilient is the number one factor in giving people the strength and courage to overcome any circumstances. This pandemic challenged us to not cover ourselves with fake news or disinformation and let us not cloth ourselves with unconsciousness. Robust government with the coordination of resilient citizens. This is the key to combating this monster. COVID-19.

PPA retains Green Port Award for its CDO port, remains critical on achieving a sustainable port operation THE Philippine Ports Authority (PPA) received another Green Port Award for its Cagayan de Oro Port, a testament that the agency remains critical on achieving sustainable port operations. PPA said the award was a culmination of group efforts in its CDO Port, under the Port Management Office of Misamis Oriental/Cagayan de Oro, to maintain an efficient operating processes while maintaining a high-level of balance with the environment. The Cagayan De Oro port is dubbed as the Global Gateway to Mindanao for its strategic location at the Northern Coast of Mindanao within Macajalar Bay. The port serves as the entry and exit point of passengers and goods to and from the adja-
cent urban cities and provinces and other parts of the Philippine archipelago. It also links conveyances to countries such as Vietnam, China, Australia and the United States, among others. In a letter sent to PPA by the APEC Port Services Network signed by its Secretary General Jia Dashan dated 11 October 2021, it was stressed that the CDO port has satisfactorily complied with the scorecard laid out by experts in its Green Port Award System or GPAS. “The GPAS Evaluation Committee has reviewed and evaluated all the applications for GPAS 2021 and scored each applicant according to its compliance to the various indicators,” Dashan explained in the letter. “ The score of your application has reached
the criteria of GPAS, and I am very pleased and honored to advise you that the Port of Cagayan de Oro is again awarded the GPAS 2021,” Dashan revealed. The recipients of this year’s GPAS Award were announced on 16 of November 2021 during the APEC Smart Port Development Forum in Qingdao, China through virtual process which was attended by PPA officials and Port Managers, among other invited delegates from international organizations and other stakeholders in the Asia-Pacific region. The CDO Port is conferred with GPAS Certificate and Badge. The GPAS program, meanwhile, is a green evaluation system for ports in the APEC region. The program is intended
to improve environmental awareness as well as increase the understanding of green port development strategy, with the aim of achieving a balance between economic development and environmental protection in the APEC ports community; promote the sustainable development of ports in the APEC region and protect the port environment for the benefit of the entire APEC community; contribute to the harmonization of regulations and improve the interoperability of green port systems in the APEC region; establish an APEC green port performance benchmark based on this program, share best practices and encourage mutual assistance among APEC ports. PPA General Manager
Jay Daniel R. Santiago is both honored and happy upon learning of the award stating that the additional environmental protection measures will be implemented in the future in order to achieve its commitment of reducing the carbon footprint in its port operations. “PPA is committed heavily in the adoption of measures to fully protect the environment and reduce the carbon footprint of ports in the continuing fight against Climate Change,” Santiago said. “This award is a big boost to PPA particularly now that we are in the midst of preparing and developing the PPA Port Environmental Code, which will define the priorities of the PPA in terms of environmental
protection.,” Santiago explained. Aside from the CDO Port—a multiple GPAS awardee, Batangas Port was also given the same recognition a couple of years ago. The two ports also maintain an the Integrated Management System fusing in three international standards, namely: ISO 9001:2015 for Quality Management System, ISO 14001:2015 for Environmental Management System, and BS OHSAS 18001:2007 for Occupational Health and Safety Management, to further solidify its quality, safety, health and environmental policies, and commitment for the protection of the environment, provision of safe and healthy working conditions and improved quality of port operations and services.
