By MARK FRANCISCO Correspondent

AGAYAN DE ORO C I T Y – Roads and Traffic Administration (RTA) overseer Jose Edgardo Uy said the city government will be studying the idea of closing the newly-opened Agora-Gusa coastal road during the wee hours of the night and dawn.

Government to resume peace talks with Reds if… By Antonio L. Colina IV, MindaNews

PRESIDENT Rodrigo R. Duterte might decide to resume talks with the National Democratic Front (NDF) if the latter would show sincerity in the peace efforts, Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said.

“The ball is in the court of the CPP-NPA (Communist Party of the PhilippinesNew People’s Army). Show the requisite sincerity and the President might just consider, but for now… no more peace talks,” Roque

PRESIDENT Rodrigo Roa Duterte on Tuesday, November 28, called on Congress to add more teeth to the law to free Filipinos from corruption that has been plaguing the country. In his message during the birthday celebration of lawyer Alfredo Lim here, the Chief Executive noted that the presence of graft and corruption in government is destroying the country. “My suggestion is we add more teeth to the law,”

the President said. The President reiterated his call to the legislators to craft a Constitution that would mandate more accountability to government officials. “Let us amend the Constitution. Shorten or restrict the powers of everybody including the presidency but make a Constitution that would mandate more accountability and responsibility of officials,” he said. “If you can craft a law

A GROUP has urged the Department of Education (Deped) to protect Lumad (indigenous peoples) schools from possible harassments with the collapse of peace talks between government (GRP) and National Democratic Front (NDF). In a statement issued on Tuesday, Save Our Schools – Network Southern Mindanao spokesperson Meg Monteverde said the group expressed concern that military operations in the hinterlands might escalate after President Rodrigo R. Duterte issued Proclamation No. 360 last November 23 terminating the GRPNDF peace negotiations. “We join the Lumad students, teachers and parents in raising concern on the cancellation of talks as this signals the intensifying militarization in our communities and our perpetual displacement,” she said.

But Eastern Mindanao Command public information officer Maj. Ezra Balagtey maintained it is their duty to ensure the safety of the communities. “Part of that duty is to protect and support legitimate Lumad schools with or without peace talks,” he said. Eastern Mindanao Command chief Lt. Gen. Benjamin Madrigal also denied that Lumad schools are being targeted by military operations. “That is not true. Our operations are directed towards the armed groups. The IP schools issue, that is, those operating without DepEd approval and have not passed their standards and requirements, is being dealt with by the concerned agencies and the concerned LGUs (local government units),” he said in a text message to MindaNews Tuesday.

DOST-funded technology to help keep Siargao water safe mark francisco, Section Editor

Thursday

November 30, 2017

By Gabrielle Espinosa DOST Caraga

GENERAL Luna, Siargao Island—Safe water may be the next attraction in Siargao as the island puts on board the Eco-friendly Septic Tank System or Ecosep. This technology consists of a septic water management system that addresses the problem of untreated waste water in resorts, public establishments, and households. Launched in Siargao last September, the Ecosep technology is installed in three pilot sites, namely General Luna Market, General Luna High School, and Traveler’s Beach Resort. “Samples collected from these sites will serve as a baseline for DOST to encourage resort owners, LGUs, and households to adopt the technology in our campaign [as part of the project],” says Engr. Noel Ajoc, project coordinator. Dr. Merlinda Palencia, developer of the Eco-sep technology, explained that the Eco-sep system deployed in the pilot sites contains Vigormin, an organomineral that hastens the decomposition of harmful bacteria that lodge in septic tanks. Vigormin prevents bacteria

from escaping from the tank, thus avoiding contamination of waste water in sewage systems. Dr. Palencia noted that the Eco-sep system will be very efficient in Siargao. Most septic tanks in the island have a bottomless design which allows wastewater to quickly seep through the ground. This poses higher risk of contamination in freshwater and seawater. “Eco-sep will make an impact to Siargao since the main attraction of its eco-tourism are the pristine, fresh and very clean water along its beaches,” said Palencia. “We don’t want Siargao to follow the footsteps of other tourist areas where fecal bacteria are already in sea waters.” DOST Caraga Regional Director Dominga D. Mallonga also assured that DOST will always continue its support in sustaining eco-tourism in the island. “With the development comes challenges from the increasing influx of tourists in Siargao. DOST will always be along the way so that we will be able to plan out carefully and avoid problems in solid waste management

Education is Important to One’s Life By: Fe A. Saga, T-lll Bacungan Central School Bacungan District , Leon B. Postigo, ZN

Yes, it’s very true that education is important to one’s life. Why education is important? Because it gives people the skills and tools they want to navigate the world, without education people would not be able to read and write. Education improve the quality of your life and it is the key factor for a successful professional life. It has to do with the ability to open doors easier than if you are not educated. Education is to be able to reason, to use your ability to read and write to your benefits and be able to gain your spectrum of knowledge by trying to go deeper into the literate knowledge impart to you and calculate or commu-

nicate. They would also perform jobs competently, accurately and safely. Education also teaches people about the world in which they live including information about history, philosophy and cultures. Education is important because it gives people the baseline skills to survive as adults in the world.These skills includes numeracy, literacy, ability to communicate, complete tasks and work with others. But still others believe that education is important because it teaches people about the world around them. If one get education he will come to know how to get good jobs, to live disciplined and this is the way to get your best.

COUNCILOR George S. Goking, chair of the City Council committee on trade and commerce, last week appealed to the management of 7/11 convenient stores, banks and gasoline stations to provide comfort rooms for their clients. This, after receiving complaints that these establishments do not allow the public to use the comfort rooms inside their premises.

Councilor Goking said clients, especially senior citizens and pregnant women should not be deprived of these facilities. Requirement According to Arch. Maria Conception Alcantara, OIC of the Office of the Building Official, the provision of comfort rooms is required by the National Building Code and is a requisite for the issuance

of business permits. She said the OBO conducted random inspections and found that banks, gasoline stations and 7/11 stores have comfort rooms but refuse to let the public use these facilities for security reasons. Councilor Goking stressed that security should not be an excuse for this violation. He said establishments should find ways to improve the location

of their comfort rooms. He added that senior citizens are protected by law and should be given priority. “It is just an appeal, if we hear another complaint, we will be forced to give you another friendly advice,” Goking added. According to the City Legal Office, sanctions can be imposed against establishments found violating the law.

Free trade ‘took back seat’ under Duterte administration – trade expert THE free trade movement in the Philippines “took back seat” as the Duterte administration shifted the government focus to addressing the ills of society, according to a Philippine trade expert. During the Asia-Pacific Forum 2017 on Integration and Inclusiveness in a Digital Society, Dr. Thomas Aquino, former undersecretary of the Department of Trade and Industry, claimed the current administration is prioritizing issues that confront the Philippine leadership, such as the integration of the Philippine society via new legislation and the challenges facing Mindanao, while pushing the free trade movement to the back seat. This is manifested in the country’s stand on bilateral relationships, which according to Aquino, have already gravitated toward basic issues, such as respect for sovereignty and other domestic priorities. Specifically, the trade expert expressed disappointment on the manner the President handled himself during the 31st ASEAN Summit held in the country recently, where “very little

came out from him with respect to, not just regional, not just bilateral but also on any international issues.” ASEAN stands for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, which include the Philippines as a member-state. Unfortunately, such nationalistic sentiments tend to pressure the governments in the economic bloc to advocate for more restrictive and inward-looking policies that limit economic growth and trade in the region, said Dr. Yose Rizal Damuri, chief economist of Indonesia-based Center for Strategic and International Studies. “For Indonesia itself, one can see the increasing trend of number of restrictions, where 35 percent of tariff lines have already been subjected to nontariff measures,” he explained. In a study earlier this year, Dr. Erlinda Medalla and Melalyn Mantaring, research fellow and project development officer, respectively, at state think tank Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS), argued that the excessive use of nontariff measures in the ASEAN remain as barriers

to intraregional trade. Such measures affect global and regional production chains by unnecessarily increasing the cost of doing business, the researchers added. In the Philippines, the most common nontariff measures are sanitary and phytosanitary measures, Medalla and Mantaring revealed. Still, Aquino remained optimistic given the Philippines’ high level of participation during the ASEAN summit, which allowed the country to cultivate deeper friendships with its immediate neighbors in the region. “Because of that, strong expectations on what the ASEAN Economic Community can achieve and on what the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership can truly deliver are created,” he explained. To meet such expectations, Damuri recommended increasing investments in infrastructure, continuing openness in the region through initiatives such as AEC, and setting the deadline for the RCEP to be completed in 2018. He a l s o u r g e d t h e

ASEAN member-states to promote greater understanding on the benefits of the economic openness and harmonize the multilateral trading systems in the region.

Organized by Japan Economic Forum and PIDS, the Asia-Pacific Forum 2017 highlights the rising protectionism that threatens the promotion of cooperation, peace, and innovation

in the Asia-Pacific region. It advances the use of digital technology to promote dialogue among peoples and strengthen the linkages that bind the countries in the Asia Pacific.

‘Revolutionary gov’t,’ sooner than expected

Everybody now talks about the “revolutionary government.” The CYNOSURE has written an article about this long before the issue has, again, resurrected. While many have expressed apprehension and anxiety about the institution of a “revolutionary government,” the CYNOSURE finds the topic, a “boring” discourse. Well, just to clarify the issue, a revolutionary government is necessary only under extreme circumstances. There are indispensable grounds before a revolutionary government becomes essential. The government could impose a “revolutionary government” as a way of altering the status quo. One of the important factors that

however, has shifted its definition of the revolutionary government in a new perspective. The sudden changes in the definition was conceived following the “military-civilian” mutiny that toppled the strongman President Ferdinand E. Marcos in 1983. Former President Corazon Aquino declared a “revolutionary government” as a process of a nationwide cleansing. Obviously, Aquino’s political protegees and patrons wanted to erase all the vestiges of Marcos. However, the underlying factor of Aquino’s revolutionary government and cleansing process is, actually, to facilitate the takeover of his political “friends” to the various sensitive positions of the government.

Cris Diaz

Everybody knows that once the “unknown” political figures suddenly occupied important positions in the Aquino government. Everybody knows that some of Aquino’s rabid followers were appointed to high offices in the government. The public know that some of Aquino’s rabid followers have enriched themselves in office in a short while. Nevertheless, one of the important objectives of the Aquino’s revolutionary government was to change the 1978 Philippine Constitution. By the way, the 1978 Philippine Constitution was an amendment of the 1935 Philippine Constitution, See sooner, page 11

compels the imposition of a “revolutionary government” is time constraint. Time constraint could be defined as the period that an important change should take place. Failing to adopt the planned changes within the stated time frame would basically become an outdated plan. In other words, the plan would be overtaken by events.

Think A Minute

Decide Your Destiny Think a minute. A man was cleaning his car with a special brush when a little girl who had been watching him said, “My daddy has a brush like that to clean his car too.” “Really!” said the man. “What kind of car does your daddy have?” The little girl answered: “Oh, he hasn’t got the car yet, but he’s got the brush to clean it.” Well, I suppose you have to start somewhere! The important thing is that you do get started. And to do that, we first have to decide what kind of life we want. It’s strange how many of us want to live forever, when we can’t even decide what to do with

our life now! Like the guy who said: “I’m going to stop putting things off, starting tomorrow.” You see, even if others have made decisions for you, you can still decide how you’ll respond and handle the life that’s been handed to you. You still have control of your own attitudes. Happiness is an attitude and choice, no matter what situation you’re in. Remember, you can always find someone worse off than you whom you can help. It’s only when we stop looking at our own problems and reach out to make others happy, that we ourselves can be truly happy. But if you choose not to make a

decision, that also is your decision you’ll live with. There are many smart, talented people who have never enjoyed the success they could have, simply because they could not make a decision and discipline themselves to follow through with it. Remember, if your life doesn’t change, it’s going stay the same! It’s that simple. So to move on from where you are, you must first decide where you’d rather be. If you can’t change your mind, you can’t change your life. “The moment you’re through changing, you’re through!” The great writer Tolstoy said: “Everyone wants to change the world, but no one wants

Jhan Tiafau Hurst

to change himself.” So ask yourself right now: What’s the one decision I need to make to change my life? The smartest one you can make is to ask your own Maker to take control of your life every day. Then with Jesus’ power, you can start making the best choices that will change you and give you the new life you want. In fact, you can decide your destiny today. Just Think a Minute.`

Mambajao strengthens campaign vs smoking By Recthie T. Paculba PIA-10

MAMBAJAO, Camiguin-To protect and promote the right to health of the people in the municipality, and instill health consciousness among them, the Rural Health Unit (RHU) of Mambajao intensified the town’s efforts on providing smoke-free environments in public and enclosed places by posting information, education and communication materials in strategic areas. Mambajao Mayor Jurdin Jesus Romualdo emphasized that the implementation of the Philippine Executive

Order 26 is significant to minimize access, particularly of minors, to tobacco products and to provide a more supportive environment for those who are attempting to quit tobacco use. Romualdo said that the smoking ban in Mambajao is strictly observed as an increasing number of Filipinos become afflicted with and die each year of tobacco-related diseases such as stroke, heart disease, various cancers and nicotine addiction, and both the public and workers in facilities where smoking is allowed

are most at risk from these and other tobacco-related diseases. Since November 22, the town’s RHU has been posting the “Strictly No Smoking” signage in Poblacion, Bug-ong, Yumbing and other barangays in the municipality particularly in stores and other public areas. The order imposes fines of up to P10,000 for violation of the smoking ban in public places and enforcement are performed by members of the Philippine National Police (PNP). (RTP/PIA10)

SHS students need skills in communication By Elaine O. Ratunil PIA-10

CAGAYAN de Oro City-Senior High School (SHS) students in Northern Mindanao need to be skilled in communication, problem solving and interpersonal. This was revealed in a study conducted by the Philippine Business Social Progress (PBSP), in partnership with Citi Foundation Philippines in its Bayanihan Pampaaralan Collective Support to SHS Program. One of the activities in the PBSP-Citi Foundation partnership was the conduct of the Job Market Study to determine the current situation of labor demand and supply in Cagayan de Oro City and nearby provinces and how SHS can well respond to. In his presentation of the Current State of SHS implementation in Northern Mindanao, Dr. Allan Farnazo, regional director, Department of Education (DepEd) region 10, affirmed the same need for the SHS students in the region. Farnazo also emphasized the crucial role of the partnership in the implementation of SHS and its importance in achieving

the goal of the program. The result of the study also provided the information and insights about the industry and jobs available for the SHS. Meanwhile, Technical Education Skills Development and Employment C ommittee (TESDEC) Chairman Ariel Hernandez shared about the TESDEC of Cagayan de Oro City and showed how it became possible for all stakeholders to join together and respond to. Hernandez emphasized that the school heads and principals should muster the Senior High and learn how to engage the private sector or the industries.

ASEAN youth form network vs. climate change By Albert-Anthony Abando

MANILA -- Youth leaders from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) have agreed to form a region-wide network of youth leaders to serve as a knowledge management platform for sharing best practices and ongoing climate actions in the region.

This was the result of the three-day “Not on Our Watch ASEAN” (#nowASEAN) Conference held at the Sofitel Philippine Plaza on November 23-25. The ASEAN youth leaders will recommend the creation of the Southeast Asian Youth in Climate

Action Network (SAYCAN) to the 2018 ASEAN Leaders Summit. Young men and women representing ASEAN member countries affirmed their commitment to fight the disastrous effects of climate change through the #nowASEAN movement— formerly #nowPH—which was spearheaded by the

Philippines for the ASEAN. Representatives of the country’s 17 regions and other ASEAN youth from neighboring Myanmar, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand among others, took part in consultative meetings and the formulation of policies designed to empower the youth to take action and continue the

holidays. Other local factors that boosted businesses’ expectations include increasing number and expansion of businesses, higher disbursements for government’s infrastructure and other development projects, and favorable macroeconomic conditions. Expansion of the exports market likewise improved outlook for businesses. BSP Deputy Governor Diwa Guinigundo also noted

that among types of business, exporters are the most optimistic for Q4 2014. Guinigundo said positive outlook of exporters is driven by peso depreciation, which means higher revenues for them. “We also note that because of the depreciation of peso, the exporters are also happy. If we look at the distribution of the sentiments, exporters are very happy on the weakening

Business optimism up for Q4 ‘17 By Joann Villanueva and Kris Crismundo

MANILA -- Optimism of Filipino businessmen for the fourth quarter of 2017 rose to 43.3 percent from quarter-ago’s 37.9 percent due in part to the expected brisk business during the holiday season. Results of Business Expectations Survey (BES) done by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) from October 2 to November 20 this year and participated

in by about 1,473 firms nationwide, showed that the positive outlook for the last quarter this year is also traced to expansion of businesses. BSP Department of Economic Statistics Director Rosabel Guerrero said in a briefing Tuesday that firms are more optimistic for the Q4 2017 as domestic demand is expected to increase during the Christmas

DOST: Make communities safer, resilient to disasters By Elaine O. Ratunil, pia

e cannot do away with hazards, but we can prepare, respond to hazards more appropriately. We need to have everyone involved and we need to help the people imagine possible disasters that can happen if we do not do anything. Science and Technology Undersecretary for Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change and Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) Executive Director Renato U. Solidum Jr, in his message during the 1st National Conference on Disaster Preparedness and Resiliency held in Cagayan de Oro, said disaster preparedness and

resiliency is achieved by having a collective action, guided by science based scenarios and solutions. Disaster preparedness and resiliency means actions. Thus, he urged, “Let us make our communities, businesses and country safer and resilient to disasters. Usec. Solidum said that the Philippines, being located at the western side of the Pacific Ocean is a country exposed to various natural hazards as it is part of the Tropical Cyclone Belt and the Pacific Ring of Fire. He also said that because of the large population and frequently visited by natural hazards, the Philippines is ranked No. 3 among

R.A. 9048 Form No.10.1 (LCR O)

countries most exposed to hazards. Unfortunately, because of the large population and because the preparedness does not exactly match the severity or scale of extreme hazard, the country is considered No. 3 among the countries most at risk disasters, often affected by large scale hazard events. He cited that the country has suffered from “world class” disasters including the 1976 Magnitude 7.9 Moro Gulf Earthquake which triggered a Tsunami as high as nine meters and killed more than 6,000 people among others. These events, he said, have not only caused tremendous loss of lives and injury, but also resulted to destruction of houses, buildings and

other properties, interruption of water, electricity, communication and food supply, damages to transport systems, damage to the environment and loss of revenue due to business interruptions. “Although the occurrence of the various natural hazards cannot be prevented, we need to reduce the losses from these hazards, be able to respond effectively and efficiently when disaster happens and be able to recover socio-economic and governance functions immediately,” said Solidum. He further said that with the experience and vast lessons learned from past disasters and advanced science, engineering and technology, we should have seen reduction in the num-

ber of disaster victims and lesser socio-economic impact when hazards occur. Hence, he cited the importance of science based disaster imagination or the appreciation of hazards and the impacts in their area. Science based disaster imagination is a step by step process. First, Solidum said the need to identify the hazards that may affect the areas. Second, areas that will be affected and not affected depending on the magnitude of the hazardous event need to be determined. How many and how people, communities, buildings, houses, lifelines and other critical facilities will be affected need to be assessed. This information will be vital in contingency planning how to respond

and in recovery planning even before the actual disaster has happened. Solidum said that science based disaster imagination and development of plans appropriate to possible events should be practiced by every organization. With the theme, “Planning for Disaster Resileincy…a must for all Entities,” Safety Organization of the Philippines gathered different safety and disaster practitioners and and enthusiasts from the local government units (LGUs), industrial companies and others institutions and stakeholders of disaster emergency response primarily for preventing the loss of lives and properties against natural and manmade disasters.

Biblical reflection

To love God is the best move The Gospel of Jesus Christ (November30, 2017-Thursday) Matthew 5:17-19- For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so,

he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. You need to love in a package way; if you love him includes everything he loves. You need to love the nature, animals and most of all your neighbors. It is not right if your love is only in you’re within but you need

to express it by doing the right things. The love of God is cannot be questioned but only ours. The love of God is fixed and firmed for you no matter what. He wants you to love him in return no matter what. You need to prove your love to him by doing great things to others around you whoever

they are. God is happy watching you doing the things beneficial to others.1 John 4:19-21”We love, because He first loved us. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.

And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also. To love God is the best move that you have ever made. You are born to love him forever. You are born to serve him here on earth and in eternity. You are born to glorify him. But the most ef-

Bro. Edcel L. Closas fective way to do it is to show it in action.

guilty somehow of the same disregard of existing rules and regulations. While they demand that they be left alone to do whatever they think would be in accordance with their own processes, they are refusing anyway to respect the processes enshrined in the Constitution which recognize the rights of other officials or agencies, like the Supreme Court. Is it not a fact that both Umali and House Speaker Bebot Alvarez have been relentless in their pronouncements that the Supreme Court should not dare interfere with the impeachment proceedings because, from their own point of view, only the lawmakers have the right to participate and decide in those proceedings? I don’t know what version of the Constitution Umali and Alvarez are using but it is clear that their perception is wrong. As we have been expounding here, the Supreme Court can now meddle, as it were, on anything in government, because it has been given “judicial power”---or, literally, the power to meddle--by the Constitution that the Cory Aquino presidency ushered in. Lawmakers should revise the charter first, if they want to remove this “judicial power”. -oooWATCH ANG TANGING DAAN” AT FACEBOOK: “Ang Tanging Daan” is a Bible exposition and prayer session for everyone, in English and Filipino, 24/7, worldwide, that can be viewed at www.facebook. com/angtangingdaan.

stitious netizens dubbing them as “padugo.” In an interview, Uy said he is tasking RTA’s engineering team to study on whether such move is feasible. The absence of street lights at night has been blamed for the two accidents. “Tan-awon nato kung mahimo ba nato na nga sirad-an lang sa temporarily from 10:00 sa gabii ba kaha taman sa alas singko sa kadlawon to prevent more accidents tungod kay wala pa man g’yuy mga suga diha nga area,” Uy said. Along this line, Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 10 spokesperson Vinah Maghinay admitted that the street lights in the four-kilometer stretch will be installed still during the second quarter of next year or around April. “The budget for the street lights is expected to be released during that time,” Maghinay said, adding that paving the road was the priority during the

construction period prior to its opening earlier this month. “Since maagian na man during daytime, then dapat ablihan na jud ang dalan to the public para magamit to relieve the city from traffic gridlock,” she said. Maghinay added that once the street lights will be erected, it will be the city government who will foot the bill – the same arrangement DPWH had with the rest of the thoroughfares in the city and elsewhere in the country. Aside from accidents, the Agora-Gusa coastal road is also marred with people intoxicated with liquor. Dozens of individuals posing danger to nighttime motorists have already been apprehended for drinking along the unlit highway since it opened on November 10. Police have also received numerous complaints of individuals extorting from cargo truck drivers in the area.

now to any ongoing peace talks. I am not in a position to say that the doors will forever be shut. We need to see sincerity on the part of the CPP-NPA. Show us that you are sincere and I’m sure the president will act accordingly,” Roque added. Both parties were supposed to resume discreetly the fifth round of peace talks on November 25 to 27, 2017 in Oslo, Norway. But Duterte decided to call it quits two weeks after the NPA ambushed a police patrol vehicle in Bukidnon last November 9, leaving two persons, including four-month old Walysha Machorao dead, and six others injured. Machorao was with her mother aboard a Toyota Fortuner that was tailing the police vehicle. Roque said Duterte was the only President who gave this much leeway to the communist group even to the extent of putting CPPnominated officials in his cabinet. The Commission on Appointments, however, rejected the appointments of former Anakpawis representative Rafael Mariano and University of the Philippines professor Judy Taguiwalo, two prominent leaders of the legal Left. Mariano was appointed as agrarian reform secretary and Taguiwalo as social welfare secretary. Asked whether a written notice of termination would be submitted to the NDF, Roque said it would be “superfluous” to submit one when the President already issued a proclamation. “That’s too legalistic an approach. What else do they want? The president already issued the proclamation saying it’s been terminated. It’s not as if the NDF has a status of a state, it’s not as if we’re dealing with a treaty entered into by state

Machorao was with her mother aboard a Toyota Fortuner that was tailing the police vehicle. In his speech during the Bangsamoro Assembly at the Old Provincial Capitol in Sultan Kudarat, Maguindanao Monday, Duterte dismissed the idea of forming a coalition government with the communists. “But for the communists, let me be very clear, ‘one republic, no coalition!’ Government must be the sole authority and we decide it all.

of the peso,” he added. “Respondents attributed their less positive outlook mainly to the usual slowdown of demand after the holiday season,” the official explained. The usual slowdown of business after the holidays was a major factor for the decline in the index while other reasons cited by the respondents are lag in” business transactions at the beginning of the year (e.g., delay in renewal of contracts and drydock season for the shipping industry), stiffer business competition, concerns on the effect of the new excise tax rates to the automobile industry, and higher inflation.” Among the selected economic indicators, respondents expect inflation to rise but remain within the government’s three to five percent target, the peso to weaken against the US dollar, and interest rates to go up. As of last October, inflation average at 3.2 percent. (PNA)

which was carried out by the Marcos government. The Marcos Philippine Constitution in 1978 was the change of the form of the Philippine government from the Presidential to Parliamentary. Under the 1978 Philippine Constitution, the Prime Minister heads the Parliament while the President (then occupied by Marcos) was the ceremonial head of state. Another important provi-

sion of the 1978 Philippine Constitution was the law on Patrimony or the utilization of natural resources. The 1935 Philippine Constitution allows the ownership of corporation in the country by foreign investors in whole or in part. It provides that foreign investors could own majority of the stocks of corporations. In the 1978 Philippine C on s t it ut i on , Ma rc o s amended the provision of the Patrimony by allowing foreign investors to own ONLY 40 percent of the corporate stock in the country. The 1978 Philippine Constitution also barred any foreign national to own any property in the country, but could registered the name of his legitimate wife or her legitimate husband on any property purchased by the foreigner himself. President Rodrigo Duterte also wants to amend the Cory Constitution. The only way to get to it, albeit expeditiously is to declare a “revolutionary government.” Under a revolutionary government, Duterte could also immediately declare vacant all government (elected or not) posts in the government. This is the shortest way to replace all corrupt public officials who have the propensity of railroading court decisions under pretext of the “rule of law” principle. Duterte could also freely appoint his supporters, followers, and rabid political bugs to juicy positions. As far as Duterte is concerned, that is the other side of the coin. Actually, Duterte wants to declare a “federal” government and to pass the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) without the usual bickering from the opposition. Duterte knows that he has to declare the “revolutionary government” this early. With only a sixyear term in office, Duterte knows that his time is running out and he has to act swiftly. -0- Email reactions/ comments: crisguardian@ yahoo.com Republic of the Philippines Department of Transportation and Communication LAND TRANSPORTATION FRANCHISING & REGULATORY BOARD Regional Office No.10, Apovel, Bulua, Cagayan de Oro City MANOLITO G.

Vivo, the young leading global smart phone brand which vows to bring advanced technology and stylish products to consumers, recently dominated the spotlight with the launch of the Vivo V7+.
