ANKING police officials here weighed in on the resignation of Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Oscar Albayalde Monday morning.

Albayalde’s resignation came amid the “ninja cops” controversy after he allegedly tried to protect the police officers involved in the recycling of about 200 kilos of confiscated illegal drugs following a raid in Pampanga in 2013.

For Ground Zero IDPs, there’s no going back

By LUZ RIMBAN, Agenda for Hope Project-Ateneo de Manila University / MindaNews

MOST AFFECTED AREA (MAA), Marawi City – Construction workers are clearing the area that was the main battleground between government forces and extremist rebels, carting away the debris of a war that hogged international headlines two years ago.

MAA, also known as Ground Zero, the arena of battle between government and Maute/Abu Sayyaf forces in 2017, is now nothing but empty spaces lit-

tered with gigantic coils of copper wire, concrete slabs, and patches of GI sheets.

The landscape has changed. There is no restoring the landmarks of the bustling Marawi city center of old, its commercial area called Padian, and houses, mosques and schools. And for the people of MAA who fled the city in May 2017 leaving everything behind, 127,309 of them according to the

UN High Commissioner for Refugees, there is no going back.

Since President Duterte declared Marawi liberated on Oct.17, 2017, the government rhetoric has been that the people would be able to return to their homes in the MAA based on a per-sector schedule in the coming months. The reality is that it is unlikely to happen in the near future, if it will happen at all.

For Marawi’s internally displaced persons (IDP), it has been a struggle complying with the requirements, mostly in the form of documents, that government has asked of them in exchange for relief and aid, for livelihood assistance, and for a chance to visit the land where their homes or shops once stood. In an ordinary place, these requirements would be standard procedure as a See BACK, page 9

At the time, Albayalde was Pampanga’s provincial police chief and the 13 officers tagged in the reselling of shabu were under his command.

Two Agusan solons supports House bill raising salaries of Comelec workers

By CHRIS V. PANGANIBAN

PROSPERIDAD, Agusan del Sur--- The two lawmakers of this province have coauthored House Bill 1669 filed by Rep. Luis Raymund “RLay” Favis Villafuerte Jr. of the 2nd District of Camarines Sur which seeks to standardize the salaries of workers of the Commission on Election (Comelec).

Rep. Alfelito M. Bascug of the 1st District and Rep. Adolph Edward G. Plaza of the province’s 2nd District separately signed the manifest of support of the proposed bill , “An Act Reorganizing the Comelec Offices” at their respective congressional offices at the

Provincial Capitol on October 15.

When HB 1669 becomes a law, all Comelec workers nationwide will enjoy standard salary grades at par with fellow government workers in the Department of Interior and Local Government, Department of Justice and Commission on Audit.

Presently, Comelec workers in the municipal level are still receiving salaries six steps behind from the salary grades of these other government agencies.

Both Rep. Bascug and Rep. Plaza agreed that the See BILL, page 11

The program helps achieve the objective of food selfsufficiency, nutritious food for families, and sustainable livelihood for communities," she said.

The Paling farm is the fifth Go Negosyo model

farm in the province.

"Our goal really is to open one model farm in every municipality.

Ne x t m o n t h , w e a r e opening three more model farms," Malvar added.

When aske d ab out the status of the other previously-established model farms such as the Barlin model farm in Ditsaan-Ramain, Malvar said she is happy that the local community has adopted the program and continued the operation of the farm.

She noted that Barlin Farm Cooperative has e x p a n d e d t o or g a n i c poultry raising, fisheries production, and mushroom production.

"Aside from that, t h e B ar l i n Far m w a s also accredited by the Agricultural Training Inst itute (ATI) as an agricultural learning site

so other farmers, even students who want to pursue agriculture, can learn from the Barlin Farm," she further said.

Malvar also disclosed t h at G o Ne g o s y o, i n par tnership with two big agri companies in the country, will soon

open two 200-hectare model farms for hybrid rice and cacao in the province. She said it is an inclusive agribusiness program that will benefit smallholder farmers to give them sustainable livelihood opportunities.

CHIA SEEDS, A SUPER FOOD? GLEN MAE M. MAMBAYLA Teacher 1 El Salvador City Central School

Chia is a tiny edible black seed that comes from the desert plant "Salvia hispanica", grown in Mexico back to Mayan and Aztec cultures, which means strength.

One of the healthy foods that catch my attention these past few days is chia seeds.

A friend of mine introduces this kind of food. I somehow become curious as to what are the benefits I can get from it. According to my research, chia seeds are among the healthiest foods on the planet.

According to a study, an ounce serving of chia seeds contains concentrated food rich in fiber, protein, calcium, magnesium, omega-3, zinc, vitamin B3 (niacin), potassium, vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B2

and antioxidants. They're loaded with nutrients that can have important benefits for your body and brain.

After thorough research, these are the things I can say. Chia seeds; a. Help weight loss. A dietician in the United States said chia seeds reduce food cravings by 50% and appetite by 60%. This blockage of calorie absorption makes them a great diet helper. b. Feel fuller faster. The fiber in chia seeds absorbs large amounts of water and expands in your stomach, which should increase fullness and slow the absorption of food. c. Use as hydration for athletes especially runners and mountaineers to provide sustainable energy. d. Richest plant source

of Omega-3 (the vital fats that protect against inflammation—such as arthritis— and heart disease). They contains more Omega-3 than salmon! e. Benefits for diabetes: Because chia seeds slow down how fast our bodies convert carbohydrates into simple sugars, studies indicate they can control blood sugar. f. They can be eaten raw, soaked in juice, added to porridge, pudding, smoothies or added to baked goods.

You can also sprinkle them on top of cereal, yogurt, vegetables or rice dishes.

A common dosage recommendation is 20 grams (about 1.5 tablespoons) of chia seeds, twice per day.

However, chia seeds must be taken in caution if you have

food allergies (especially to sesame or mustard seeds) or are on high blood pressure medications or blood thinners, you should ask your health care provider before adding chia to your diet.

Chia seeds are now consumed by many picky eaters and health-conscious people all over the world.

It has been recognized as a modern-day superfood.

Chia seeds are incredibly easy to incorporate into your diet. If you don't eat chia seeds already, you should consider adding them to your diet. They're among the few superfoods worthy of the title.

DAR Chief urges resolution of agrarian issues in high-LAD areas

C

AUAYAN CITY, ISABELA – In an effort to closely monitor the accomplishment of land acquisition and distribution (LAD) targets and the performance of the personnel from the field, Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Secretary John R. Castriciones personally visited the DAR Provincial Office of Isabela and held a dialogue with the officials and staff of DAR-Cagayan Valley

Region last Monday.

The agrarian reform program officers were encouraged

by Castriciones to be creative and innovative; to have the motivation, discipline, and spirit of teamwork to face and address the critical concerns.

The DAR chief also instructed Regional Director Samuel S. Solomero to employ strategies that would resolve agrarian issues, especially in the Province of Isabela, a high-LAD area.

According to Solomero, there is a need to focus on the landholdings that are already in the advanced stages of the LAD process in order to produce results.

For his part, the Secretary committed to give all the support he could give to help improve the performance of Isabela, and the whole of Region II. "This cannot be accomplished by one person alone; it should be accomplished by us -- all of us. We

all must solve this problem because we are a family here; we are a team so we must work together," the Secretary said as he ended his message.

The Secretary’s visit was also joined

by Atty. Marjorie P. Ayson, Director of Bureau of Agrarian Legal Assistance, Atty. Marvin Bernal, Director of Legal Services and OIC Director Gerry Asuncion of External Affairs and Relations Services of the DAR Central Office.

Think A Minute

Boys to men

THINK a minute.

Some years ago a greeting card company decided to do something special for Mother’s Day. They set up a table in a men’s prison, so any prisoner who wanted could send a free card to his mother. So many prisoners came that the company had to order more cards. Since it was such a success, they decided to do the same thing on Father’s Day. But to their surprise, not one prisoner wanted to send a free card to his dad!

A well-known leader who had counseled thousands of male prisoners for 25 years said not one of them loved his father.

So Dad, if you don’t spend

much time with your son or show him much love, you just might be raising him to become a criminal.

In a South African National Park, the government started a program to reduce the number of elephants by killing the old ones.

So almost all of the young male elephants grew up without fathers. And since they had no older male elephants to show them how to act as adults, the young males have become wild and out of control, even killing the other animals in the National Park. This happens not only in the animal kingdom, but also in the human family.

When a father is not

there to spend time with his son, his son is left to figure out alone with no guidance or teaching, how a mature, responsible man acts and lives. Your son needs a father who not only gave him life, but teaches him how to live. As a wise counselor says: “It’s far easier to build strong boys than to repair broken men.”

It’s also been said: “Half of success is just showing up.” And Dad, half of your success as a father is showing up and being there with your son. The most valuable gift you can give your son is your time, because when he gets your time he gets you, which is

A SOJOURNER’S VIEW:

Jhan Tiafau Hurst

what he really wants and needs. So spend more time than money on your son.

Remember, if you’re not there to raise him, someone else will…and it’s usually not the right person! Maybe your father was not there to spend much time with you, or show you much love.

Just ask Jesus to heal your past hurts and painful memories. It’s then, with His love and power, you can love and raise your boy to real manhood.

Indigenous leadership: A gift and task from God

Last 13 October 2019, the Roman Catholic Church in the Philippines celebrates the Indigenous People’s Sunday. It might be useful to provide a background how this has evolved. Before Islam arrived in Mindanao and the rest of the Philippines in the 13th century and Christianity in the 15th century, all the people across the country were indigenous or now we call Lumad. When Islamic traders and missionaries arrived in Mindanao, those they encountered like the Maguindanao, Maranaw, Tausug and others embraced Islam, which is why there are Muslims today in Mindanao. But many others like the Subanen, Teduray, Manobo, Mandaya and others held on to their indigenous belief system.

When the Spanish coloniz-

ers and friars colonized the Philippines, most of those in the Visayas and Luzon who were indigenous—like the Tagalogs, Ilocanos, Bicolanos, Cebuanos, Bol-anons, Warays and others—embraced Catholicism. Thus we can say that the first converts to Christianity were the Lumads.

However, the Moro people in Mindanao remained Muslims and the Lumad remained Lumad. Christian communities became the majority by the time the Americans took over as our new colonizers. This became true in Mindanao with the mass migrations of Christian settlers to Mindanao. Eventually after the Second World War, the majority of Mindanawons were Christians settlers and their descendants. Today

the Lumad are just a minority in the country and in Mindanao. According to the 2010 statistics of the Census and Statistics Office, only close to 15% of Mindanawons are Lumad.

Thus, of a total of close to 22 million Mindanawons, roughly 3,160,000 people are Lumad. Of all the total indigenous population in the entire country 60% are living in Mindanao.

The first Church presence among the Lumad in Mindanao go back to the late 1500s when the Jesuits arrived in the Caraga Region and built the first church in what is now Butuan City.

But they only reached a few communities. As more migrant settlers took over the land of the Lumad, they penetrated the uplands which were not easily ac-

cessible. When the Christian migrant settlers population increased in Mindanao, the priests concentrated their evangelization work and missions among Christian settlers. Very few penetrated the uplands to evangelize the Lumad. It was left to Protestant missionaries who came during the American regime, that a growing number of Lumad communities converted to Protestantism.

It was only in the late 1960s when a few foreign missionaries reached out to the Manobo, Tboli, Mandaya and Subanen so a few of the Lumad communities embraced Catholicism.

Immersed among them, they saw how neglected the Lumads were by the government and the extent of poverty, malnutrition, disease See GIFT, page 11

IMF lowers global growth forecast for 2019 to 3%

By LILY RAMOS

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday lowered its global growth forecast for 2019 to 3 percent in the newly-released World Economic Outlook (WEO) report, down 0.2 percentage point from its estimation in July.

Noting that this is the slowest pace since the global financial crisis, IMF chief economist Gita Gopinath said during a press conference at the global lender’s headquarters that “growth continues to be weakened by rising trade barriers and growing geopolitical tensions.”

“Growth is also being

weighed down by countryspecific factors in several emerging market economies, and structural forces such as low productivity growth and aging demographics in advanced economies,” Gopinath told reporters at the IMF headquarters.

Advanced economies continue to slow toward their long-term potential, with growth downgraded to 1.7 percent this year, compared to 2.3 percent in 2018, the report showed.

Growth in emerging market and developing economies has also been revised down to 3.9 percent for 2019, compared to 4.5 percent last year.

The Philippine government has adopted a technologyneutral policy to entice more generation companies to put up power plants and help ensure power sustainability and boost growth.

In his speech during the inauguration of the 500-megawatt capacity (MW) coal-fired power plant of San Buenaventura Power Ltd. Co. (SBPL) in Mauban, Quezon on Tuesday, Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi said energy has a crucial role on the continued expansion of the domestic economy.

“The country’s drive toward progress, prosperity, and global competitiveness is directly correlated to our rising energy requirements. Thus, part of our goal involves a long-term initiative geared towards a sustainable, diversified, and balanced energy mix that is responsive to the country’s growing energy needs -this is espoused in the Power Development Plan of the DOE,” he said.

This is the reason why the Department of Energy (DOE) adopted the technology-neutral policy, he said.

Cusi explained that when he joined the department in 2016, he questioned the allocation set for each energy source, such as 30 percent cap for coal-fired power plants and on renewable energy, among others.

He said there is no need to put limits on efficient energy that has reasonable cost and out quota on expensive sources.

Cusi added the country has an issue with capacity thus, there is no need to put a cap on sources yet as the government bids all households to have electricity when the current administration’s term ends in mid-2022.

He thus cited the operations of SBPL’s supercritical coal-fired power plant which utilizes highefficiency and low emissions (HELE) coal technology.

Education: Vital in Human’s Life By: GLYZA P. ESTROSAS Teacher – I El Salvador City Central School

Education plays a vital role in human’s life. It is an instrument to establish a good personality, well-mannered being, career and promote mental growth. Education is the finest weapon in every battle through the entire life. It is a key to success to achieve the goal in life.

We can not only refine our personal life by education but also can invoke an amazing positive change in humanity or nation.

Everyone is capable of learning, one and all

has the right to education nevertheless not everyone has given the chance to education. It is due to the status in life specifically financial aspect. It is indeed the saddest part in human’s life. Not everyone can be educated; we only need the best ones for the best things.

We can assuredly say that education is the best investment you can bestow to yourself. It is fundamental to each and every one for it can provide a better life for a brighter future.

the energy choices we make today will affect future generations, I am glad to have been given the opportunity to participate in the inauguration of one of the most advanced and efficient plants in the country,” he said.

The Energy chief, however, pointed out that there remains a “pressing gridrelated issues that require our utmost attention.”

“Rest assured that the Department is working closely with all our power sector stakeholders, and is consistently promulgating plans, policies, and programs that would ensure energy security, environ-

mental sustainability, and economic competitiveness for the Filipino people,” he said.

“With proper coordination and communication, I fervently believe that we will be able to resolve these issues and attain our energy objectives,” he added.

The PHP56.2-billion coal-fired SBPL power plant is Manila Electric Company’s (Meralco) majorityowned, commercially operating power plant after the power distribution company resumed its generation business.

It is a joint venture project of Meralco PowerGen

Schools for IPs’ better future to replace Salugpungan

Undersecretary Severo Catura, of the Presidential Human Rights Committee Secretariat (PHRCS), says the use of children as child warriors is the worst form of child labor and modern-day slavery (PNA File photo)

By GIGIE ARCILLA, PNA

F

OLLOWING the permanent closure of 55 Salugpungan schools, a Palace official assured Wednesday that Salugpungan schools will be replaced with institutions that will truly ensure

that indigenous children will have a much better future.

Undersecretary Severo Catura, of the Presidential Human Rights Committee Secretariat (PHRCS), was reacting to Bishop Roberto Mallari of San Jose, chairman of the Catholic Bishops’

Conference of the Philippines’ (CBCP) Episcopal Commission on Catechesis and Catholic Education, who lamented the closure of indigenous people’s schools in the Davao Region.

“We owe the hope of our country and of our indigenous communities no less than this,” Catura said in a statement sent to the Philippine News Agency..

The government, he said, will step up in its responsibility to protect indigenous children and this responsibility to protect includes shielding them from the horrors of terrorism, from being trained as child warriors,” he added.

“Lest we forget, the use of children as child warriors is the worst form of child labor and modern-day slavery,” he said.

He said the good Bishop need not worry that the

students and teachers he speaks of who have been affected by the closure will not be attended to.

“The Department of Education (DepEd) and the local governments concerned are already addressing the issue,” Catura said in a statement sent to the Philippine News Agency.

Mallari, in a news article posted online on Vatican News on Oct. 14, was quoted as saying, “ I am saddened with the closure of the schools instead of making an effort to improve the education system.”

He added that the DepEd should have considered the fate of more than 3,500 affected learners and teachers and that it was better to have schools, even without fulfilling all the necessary conditions, than no school at all.

Catura said the govern-

ment welcomes Mallari’s sentiment, not because it agrees with him, but because this will offer an opportunity to clarify his concerns, and perhaps meet with him if he so desires.

“We share in his concern for the education of children in our indigenous cultural communities, and fully agree with the need for the government to do more in uplifting its quality.

And this is precisely the reason why the Salugpungan schools had to be closed,” he said.

He lamented that having fallen into the hands of local communist terrorists, the Salugpungan schools have ceased to be places for our indigenous children to learn upright living and nation-building.

“Instead, they have been used to teach violence, killSee SCHOOLS, page 11

Flooding problem needs holistic solution--Sara DAVAO C I T Y - - T h e street and river floods in the city need a holistic solution.

Mayor Sara DuterteCarpio in a press briefing following her State-ofthe-City-Address (SOCA) on Monday said that the Japanese International Cooperation Agenc y (JICA) is assisting the city in coming up with a masterplan on the drainage and sewerage system.

She is hopeful that this

approach can solve the street floods in the city given its holistic approach.

Duterte-Carpio said the street flooding is caused by clogged drainage while floods due to the overflowing of rivers are due to heavy downpour.

“The JICA masterplan will alleviate the problem because of its holistic view of the city and from there we can draw the lists of projects we can work on in addressing the flood,” she said.

Duterte-Carpio said the 1995 Drainage Masterplan was no longer followed since it did projects on a piecemeal basis as interventions on flooded areas of the city, like La Verna Hills in Buhangin District where flooding is imminent following a heavy downpour.

She said the Department o f P u b l i c Wo r k s a n d Highways (DPWH) has created a drain and has put up a pumping station in the area, consequently,

accumulation of water continues.

“Paspas na nga moubos ang tubig, modaghan lang g yud siya kung kus og and ulan,” Duterte-Carpio said.

She s ai d t he re is a need to harmonize the work of the DPWH, the city government with the holistic plan of the JICA in coming up with the drainage masterplan and in fixing the dikes.

Duterte-Carpio said that right now, the DPWH

works on d i k ing b ot h sides of the rivers like the Davao River and other river systems of the city.

She said that with the limited budget, the DPWH could hardly put a dike in all areas, consequently, diking is done by phase.

DavNor town mayor cites gains in agri sector

By CHE PALICTE, PNA

DAVAO CIT Y— Santo Tomas, Davao del Norte Mayor Ernesto Evangelista reported during his State of the Municipality Address (SOMA) on Monday their gains and accomplishments particularly in the town’s agriculture sector.

He said about 2, 500 rice farmers and banana growers benefited from the assistance facilitated by the Municipal Agriculture Office (MAGRO) given by national line agencies in the form of cash or projects.

Among these were the PHP10.35 million rice processing complex given to GISACO to modernize farming and provide a livelihood for the local farmers in New Visayas and nearby barangays.

The project was sourced from the rice program through the Rice Competitive Enhancement Fund (RCEF).

Rice farmers also benefited from the PHP7.14 million rice program via the RCEF for certified inbred and hybrid seeds. The fund was widely distributed to rice farmers with the vision of a formidable agricultural sector in the municipality.

A total of 435 farmers have benefited through loan financing under the PHP6.525 million rice program funded through RCEF. To empower the farmerscooperatives, Evangelista said a Banana Fiber Processing Center worth PHP4.5 million was given to Bobongon Integrated Farmers Association (BOIFA) in See GAINS, page 10

ARALING Panlipunan is the Filipino term for Social Studies. That’s why subjects in Araling Panlipunan from Grades 7 to 10 are called Historya, Sosyolohiya, Ekonomiya and Heograpiya. They’re called Araling Panlipunan 1, Araling Panlipunan 2, Araling Panlipunan 3 and Araling Panlipunan 4. Araling Panlipunan focuses in studying of society to enhance the students’ understanding of the society therein right now and how society works.

Learning Araling Panlipunan

is important because it teaches students fundamental concepts of culture, economics and politics skills to groom them into educated, productive citizens. Araling Panlipunan centers around understanding how the world works on a social level.

Understanding the many facets of society and how it runs is essential for all grade levels of students from elementary through junior high. Araling Panlipunan is a broad category that includes

important aspects of the many different parts of the humanities and social sciences. It is important for every person to have a basic understanding of key concepts that have molded modern society.

Learning the basic history of government and economic structure is necessary to inform future voters. Araling Panlipunan is also important for teaching students basic values such as justice and equality which are the foundations of modern society.

WAKING up in the morning is never challenging when you’re going somewhere you love. When I wake up, I know that I’m going to a job that I am passionate about and I’m making a difference. I tell my second graders every year to find a career that they enjoy and are passionate about and it will never feel like a job.

This may not resonate them now but I hope that they will remember it in their future and that it drives the direction of their path in life. I have lived by this philosophy.

Teaching is a work of heart. It has the poten-

(SGD) JUDITH ALVIZO-CALO, LIB, MPA City Civil Registrar

tial to go far beyond the transfer of knowledge, it can inspire the heart and it can transform the individual. Teachers who teach at this level have learned the value of developing an influential relationship with their students. Their primary concern is the difference they can make in the lives of the people they teach.

Sure, teachers need to be prepared, know their subjects well and use all the learning devices necessary to aptly communicate their knowledge and information. But know this for sure – teaching is a work of heart!

Edukasyon: Yaman Para sa Kinabukasan KRYSTELLE SWEET C. OCO Teacher I Punta Silum Integrated School

“Edukasyon ang paraan tungo sa magandang kinabukasan.” Ito ang mga pariralang tumatatak sa aking isipan at sumagot sa tanong kung” Gaano nga ba kahalaga ang edukasyon ?”.

Edukasyon. Isa itong pagsasanay sa tao na matutuhan na mapaunlad at gamitin ang mental, kabutihang-asal at pisikal na kakayahan. Na para sa karamihan ay sa paaaralan lang natututunan.

Edukasyon. Hindi lang pataasan ng marka o natapos na kurso. Kinakailangang pinaniningdigang may pinag a-aralan ka.

Kailangang matutunang romespeto sa ibang tao maging sa sarili. Edukasyon ang masasabi kong pinaka matibay na pundasyon. Napakahalaga nito upang makamit ang mga mithiin na kailan may inaasam-asam. Nagsisilbi din itong tulay sa pag abot ng mga pangarap at kaya nitong baguhin ang estado ng pamumuhay nang isang tao. Kapag may pinagaralan ka, madali nalang sa iyong abutin at kamtin ang hinanhangad na tagumpay.

Edukasyon. Ito ay pinakamahalang pamana ng magulang na kalian may di pwedeng nakawin ng sinuman. Lahat ng bagay

sa mundo ay lilipas, pero ang karunugan ay di kailan man kumukupas. Sandata natin ito na maging produktibo sa papasukang trabaho. Ito lang din ang natatanging bagay na di napapalitan ng yaman.

Ngunit di sapat ang nakapagtapos kalang, dapat mo ding baonin ang karunungang natutunan sa loob ng paaralan.

Determinasyon, tiwala sa sarili, may pananampalataya sa Diyos at marami pang mga katangian na dapat taglayin para makamit ang magandang bukas. Naniniwala ako sa kasabihang “Ang kahirapan ay hindi hadlang sa kinabukasan”. Itatak natin sa isipan na tayo ang gumagawa ng ating sariling kapalaran kaya kung anuman ang ating tatahakin at lahat ng ating ginagawa ay nakasalalay ito sa ating mga kamay ,dahil walang imposible sa lahat nang ating ginagawa kung ito ay tama at nararapat lang.

Kaya habang may buhay at may pagkakataon pang pwedeng mag-aral, sikapin at pilitin nating makakuha ng edukasyon para sa ikauunlad ng buhay, dahil mahirap na hanggang sa kamatayan ay mangmang.

Kaya nga nasa Diyos ang awa" nasa tao ang gawa.

disaster response. But Marawi and the Meranaw who are the majority here are different, their identities inseparable from a long history of resistance against raiders of their land.

For Task Force Bangon Marawi, the agency on top of the Marawi rehabilitation, this is all part of a plan for the country’s only Islamic city to start over and finally enforce laws. “We would like to make things right,” TFBM chair Eduardo Del Rosario said, referring to the reality that the Meranaw exist outside national laws, among them land, water, tax and registration laws, as a consequence of which they lack documents to prove ownership and sometimes even identity.

Government is planning to rehabilitate MAA and to turn it into a modern urban center. Part of the rehabilitation program is making the IDPs undergo profiling and biometric registration, and for the entire MAA to be surveyed and tagged, the better to identify who owns what property. “Once they go back, they have the right titles, and we have established the right ownership,” Del Rosario said.

But residents at the Sagonsongan shelter site want to go home, even if home is now just a memory. Some of them were still seething at the long delays when they spoke to a research team from the Ateneo de Manila University last March. “Sinong hindi galit? Siyempre lahat ang ari-arian mo naiwanan mo (Who wouldn’t be angry? We left everything behind),” said a woman who, like her parents before her, had a small business at Marawi’s main commercial center.

“Yung mga galing Maynila kahit anong oras pwede makapasok. Pero kami mismo na may-ari ng lupa, hindi kami basta-basta makapasok. Sa anong dahilan?

(Those from Manila can enter anytime, but we who owned land could not. Why?),” she added.

IDPs in other shelters harbored the same sentiments in interviews conducted in June.

“Hindi naman biro yung nangyari sa amin. Yung lahat ng sulod ng bahay namin nawala na. Wala na talaga. Zero. Back to zero (What happened to us was no joke.

Everything within our house is gone. Nothing. Zero. We are back to zero),” said a man who used to live in Barangay Wawalayan Calocan outside the perimeters of Ground Zero but has still not been able to return.

The IDPs’ clamor to return home is a manifestation of what

international agencies say is the Marawi siege’s biggest impact.

“The destruction of private homes in the MAA can be considered as the most serious impact of the siege. Most Meranaw traders have [therefore] designed their homes to double up as shops,” wrote the Asian Development Bank in a document titled “Summary Assessment of Damage and Needs.” An estimated 5,627 “dwelling units” inside MAA’s 24 barangays were completely damaged by the five-month siege.

Some 15,000 MAA residents have filed claims for damages totaling more than P90 billion in affidavits submitted to the Lanao del Sur and Marawi Chapter of the Integrated Bar of the Philippines. In March 2019, the IBP transmitted the documents to the House Sub-Committee on Marawi Rehabilitation which was deliberating on a Marawi rehabilitation bill.

With the election of new members of Congress this year, a new Marawi Siege Victims Compensation Act is being drafted, so as far as official compensation goes, MAA residents will have to wait for the legislative mill to roll.

A succession of programs In the meantime, they have to contend with government requirements. Before they could return to what remains of their property, the IDPs are being asked to apply for a permit to repair and rebuild their homes, under a procedure called Kathagombalay that TFBM launched in July 2019.

Kathagombalay means “to build” in Meranaw.

Kathagombalay comes in the heels of Kathanor, a census started in October 2018, intended to collect the number, location, status and other characteristics of the IDPs of Marawi. Kathanor classifies the different kinds of IDPs into property owners, renters and sharers. Kathanor means “to arrange” or “to fix” in Meranaw.

Kathanor, which is funded by the World Bank and implemented by the World Food Programme, is a campaign to collect biometric data from IDPs. It was supposed to be the basis for the distribution of aid packages worth P20,000 up to P73,000.

Kathanor itself comes after the Marawi City Residency Master List, which according to a TFBM flyer “is TFBM’s baseline to validate IDPs from Marawi City. The master list was rigorously verified and vetted by the IDP Technical Working Group composed of Task Force Bangon Marawi, the Marawi City Local Government, the Barangay Local Government

Thursday, October 17, 2019 Units, Department of Social Welfare and Development and the Department of Interior and Local Government.” TFBM said in its flyer that Kathanor applications will be verified from the Marawi City Master List.

To get a permit under Kathagombalay, residents need a house tag from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). House tagging is part of another government initiative called Kambisita-II, a land, property and social data-mapping program. The first Kambisita was in early 2018 and focused on residents, who were allowed to visit their homes for a few hours each day for three days, under the strict supervision of soldiers.

Residents can only return to visit their properties after they secure a permit from the city government. To get a permit, they need to fill up a form, present land titles or deeds, barangay clearance, and tax clearance.

Less than half the land titled This requirement could mean the land dispossession of more than half the displaced population. Based on the Kathanor census, not all IDPs could present titles. “Only 45 percent of properties have titles,” Del Rosario said.

In the absence of a title, the next best thing would be a tax declaration, the piece of paper that proves ownership by means of payments of real estate taxes.

“Not everybody has tax declarations,” said Dr. Emelda Gandamra-Taib, the sister of Marawi Mayor Majul Gandamra who is also his chief of staff. “May makikita ka na isang land na ni isa walang tax declaration (You’ll see land that has no single tax declaration).”

Taib said the mayor had wanted to professionalize the management of the city and called for the titling of ancestral lands handed down by forebears and occupied by the current generations of Meranaw. He also wanted businesses registered and permits issued.

“During his first 100 days (in 2016), isa yan sa mga panawagan nya. Yung mga gagawin natin na pinapa business permit kayo, na lahat everything should be legal kasi balang araw, you’re going to need that. So nangyari nga (During his first 100 days [in 2016], that was his call. What we’re doing is having you get business permits, so that everything should be legal. Someday you’re going to need that. So it has happened), ” Taib added.

The requirement to have all lands titled is causing friction within families as well. Meranaw

clans are known to share homes, with many families inhabiting a single residence. Deciding who should be named the owner is tearing families apart.

The nongovernment organization Mediators’ Network for Peace which advocates alternative dispute resolution is working on the case of a house in Norhaya Village inside MAA that two siblings are claiming.

As is common in Meranaw clans, the house was bequeathed by now-deceased parents to no particular child, and all were welcome to live in it. Two male children and their huge families were residing in the house at the time of the May 2017 siege.

Who gets the title to the property is not a simple matter of the two brothers agreeing between themselves, especially since one of them pawned off his share of the house to a sister-in-law who is also claiming a share of whatever proceeds to be gotten.

Marawi’s land problem While the siege was happening in 2017, the Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process held consultations and conversations with various sectors in Marawi, Iligan and Cagayan de Oro cities to make sure future interventions were aligned with the needs of the displaced population. The outcome was a report was titled “Post-conflict Needs Assessment Report for Marawi and Other Affected Localities.”

The report noted the land problem as a major issue government needed to approach with caution.

“The land issue in Marawi is complex,” the assessment noted. “Existing laws may not suffice (and in fact even serve to escalate issues) and extra-legal options and alternative dispute (traditional) resolution mechanisms need to be explored. Such creative solutions must consider the need to correct historical injustices brought about by land dispossession during the colonial period.”

When the American colonial government ordered the titling of land, not all Muslims were fully informed of the legal significance of the process, and so not all complied. As a result, Meranaw residents interviewed for this report said, many of them have no proof of land ownership except for pieces of paper written in the hand of their forebears, passed from generation to generation.

An example is the Philippine Muslim Teachers’ College owned by the Sharief family, which has two buildings standing on Sarimanok Avenue outside Ground

Zero. According to the school’s acting president, Datu Agakhan Sharief, “Hindi ito na titulo ng mga lolo namin kasi hindi nila alam ano ang ibig sabihin ng titulo (This property is not titled because our grandfathers did not know what a title meant).”

As far as he knows, Sharief said, the land also cannot be titled because it is part of what has been classified as a military reservation from way back during the Amercian occupation.

All structures in the vicinity up to the bridge, he said, would be in the same situation as PMTC. Sharief believes government should impose a status quo on all land in Marawi or risk facing a problem too difficult to solve.

“Kasama yan sa pinagrerebelde namin na bakit kami naka military reservation…Nauna kami rito (Part of why we are rebeling is why we are under military reservation…. We were here first),” he said Marawi’s total land area is around 8,700 hectares, of which 6,600 have been classified military reservation since the early 1900s when the Americans built their first camp in Lanao. Over the years, at least seven different land proclamations have covered Marawi. A portion of the military reservation would later be reclassified and set aside to build what would become the Mindanao State University campus.

Muslim leaders foresaw that land in Marawi would be a postconflict issue. In September 2017, before the so-called “liberation” of Marawi, the late Ghazzali Jaafar, vice chairman of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, had appealed to President Duterte to correct the historical injustice by giving back to the Meranaw the land the Americans took from them.

Instead of heeding the Muslim leaders’ call and working to assuage fears over the touchy land issue, Duterte ordered the expropriation of MAA land to establish a new military camp in Barangay Kapantaran inside MAA, estimated to cost P400 million. The groundbreaking took place in January 2018.

In April 2018, the Legislative Assembly of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao passed a resolution formally asking the government for the return of miliary land to the Meranaw.

Nothing came of that appeal.

Social healing not a priority As important as the land question and the rebuilding of homes is the need for social healing. The post-conflict needs assessment noted the trauma that the Meranaw felt from the

9

destruction of Marawi, considered the heart and soul of the Lanao provinces, and the spiritual and business center of Muslim Mindanao.

Central to any post-conflict action, the report said, would be the need to address and overcome “the pain, grief, hurt, and anger over the destruction of Marawi City, the displacement of the population, the loss of cherished properties, the prospects of land dispossession, the uncertainty of access to basic needs, and of their future in general.”

Even the Joint Task Force Marawi through the Philippine Army made a similar assessment.

“The Marawi crisis affected the displaced civilians physically, psychologically, emotionally, and socially. The people of Marawi City suffered a great loss – death and injury; damage to personal property, cultural and religious structures; loss of livelihood and income; and a disruption of business and education. They were also confronted by the appalling living conditions in evacuation centers. We could not and should not have been indifferent to the plight of these displaced persons,” wrote the Philippine Army in an article titled “Soft Power Approach” published by the Joint Task Force Marawi in its website “Marawi and Beyond.”

The task of psychosocial healing fell on the groups like the International Committee of the Red Cross because government failed to allocate funds for this need in its budget. “Social healing was not included because in the initial stage in the drafting MOA we didn’t really know what we were facing,” Del Rosario said.

TFBM ran into problems with the Commission on Audit for allocating funds for social healing in the form of trips to Mecca for select IDPs that were not part of the budget allocation.

The post-conflict needs assessment had emphasized the importance of social healing.

“Rebuilding will require not just physical reconstruction of destroyed infrastructure, but the repair of damaged relationships and weakened social cohesion, as well as psychosocial healing processes.”– with additional reporting by Jowel Canuday and Maitel Ladrido.

The October WEO report also revised down global growth projection for 2020 to 3.4 percent, down 0.1 percentage point from the estimation in July. Previously, the July WEO report already lowered growth forecasts for 2019 and 2020, each down 0.1 percentage point from the estimation in April.

The IMF recently estimated that the US-China trade tensions will cumulatively reduce the level of global GDP by 0.8 percent by 2020, considering the proposed tariff hikes scheduled for Oct. 15 and Dec. 15.

Si Mr. Ariel Galaroza, molupyo sa Cagayan de Oro, mapasalamaton uyamot ngadto kang Gobernador Bambi Emano sa iyang gipasiugda nga one-stopshop gun licensing.

“Daghang kaayong salamat Gov. Bambi saimong gibuhat nga pag hatag ug one stop shop para aning license to own and possess firearm, ug kami mapasalamaton mga gun owners nga nag expire na,” pahayag ni Mr. Galaroza isip isa sa nakabenepisyo sa programa nga gipanghingusgan sa amahan sa lalawigan.

Si Gobernador Emano, kinsa maoy nangusog nga mapahigayon gayud sa kapitolyo ang one-stop-shop gun licensing, nagpahinumdum sa tanang aplikante

nga dili nila katungod ang pag-angkon sa lisensiya sa armas, apan pribiliheyo lamang kini nga gihatag kanila sa gobyerno. Mao man gani, kinahanglan magbaton gayud sa responsable nga paghawid, pag-angkon ug paggamit sa armas.

Mat u d n i M i s a m i s Oriental Provincial Jail and Rehabilitation Center (MOPJ) Jail Warden Dominador Tagarda, kinsa maoy nangulo sa nasangpit nga programa, tumong ug tinguha sa maong kalihukan nga mapalanog sa tanan ang “responsible gun ownership” ug matabangan ang kapulisan batok sa paghitak sa loose firearms.

Sagad sa mga aplikante sa LTOPF wala magtuo nga

that would bring down the estimated negative impact on global GDP from 0.8 percent to 0.6 percent.

“We welcome any steps to deescalate tensions and to roll back recent trade measures, particularly if they can provide a path towards a comprehensive and lasting deal,” she said.

Aside from trade tensions, Gopinath also highlighted geopolitical tensions as another downside risk to global growth, warning that Brexit-related risks could further disrupt economic activity, and derail an already fragile recovery in emerging market economies and the euro area.

“To rejuvenate growth, policymakers must undo the trade barriers put in place with durable agreements, rein in geopolitical tensions, and reduce domestic policy uncertainty,” she said.

In IMF’s assessment, in the absence of monetary stimulus, global growth would be lower by 0.5 percentage points in both 2019 and 2020. The IMF chief economist, however, noted

that monetary policy cannot be the only game in town.

“It should be coupled with fiscal support where fiscal space is available, and policy is not already too expansionary,” she said.

While monetary easing has supported growth, she said: “it is essential that effective macroprudential regulation be deployed today to prevent mispricing of risk and excessive buildup of financial vulnerabilities.”

Gopinath said the global outlook “remains precarious” with a synchronized slowdown and uncertain recovery.

“At 3 percent growth, there is no room for policy mistakes and an urgent need for policymakers to support growth,” she said. “ The global trading system needs to be improved, not abandoned,” she stressed. “Countries need to work together because multilateralism remains the only solution to tackling major issues, such as risks from climate change, cybersecurity risks, tax avoidance and tax evasion, and the opportunities and challenges of emerging financial technologies,” she added.

The town has also held an African swine fever (ASF) forum for hog raisers in Barangay Salvacion.

A similar ASF forum for a swine raiser association was held in Barangay New Katipunan with Cargill as Private Partner, JK Mercado and Sons and Provincial Veterinary Office.

MAGRO also held its annual Agro-Industrial and Tourism Fair during this year’s Araw ng Santo Tomas as a strategic way to engage the agri-sector.

“I called on our people to join me in the reform and renewal of our municipality. Help me in laying the groundwork for political stability, economic growth, a revitalized bureaucracy in our municipal government,” Evangelista said. (PNA)

The summit, Esperon added, is also aimed for the actors to develop kinship and rapport that would identify the group as one big Mindanao.

It was in 2018 that President Duterte issued Executive Order 70 (EO 70) providing for a Whole-ofNation approach in defeating the Local Communist Terrorist Groups.

A National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTFELCAC) was created to synchronize the utilization of the government's instrumentalities of power with the capabilities of private sector stakeholders to finally end the 50-year long deceit, lies and atrocities committed by the communist terrorists against the people. The "Wholeof-Nation Approach" gives importance to inclusive and sustainable framework towards attaining peace.

Esperon said in less than six months since the approval of the EO 70, the national task force already had a National Action Plan and few months thereafter, regional task forces were activated and have started implementing the programs, projects, and activities which are all geared towards ending insurgency.

He said that despite nonuniformity of movement and progress, this can be understood because each region tackles a different problem that makes it unique from others.

The banana sector has been suffering from the onslaught of Fusarium wilt or Panama disease.

and how their rights were being violated. In time, they saw how the encroachment of land-hungry peasants, politicians and corporations worsened the Lumad’s situation.

Eventually they started to have assemblies to discuss what can be done to respond to their problems.

The Mindanao-Sulu Pastoral Conference eventually discussed these issues which led to the setting up of pastoral programs for what they then referred to as Tribal Filipinos. Then the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines decided to set up the Episcopal Commission on Tribal Filipinos. In order to bring attention to the plight of Tribal Filipinos, the CBCP decided to give birth to a celebration of Tribal Filipinos every second Sunday of October. Later on the name was changed from Tribal Filipinos to Indigenous Peoples which was what was used by the United Nations to refer to the Lumad. Thus this became known as IP Sunday and which is celebrated every Second Sunday of October. This year, it will be on Sunday, October 13 (N.B. for Saturday Mass—IP Sunday will be on Sunday).

The theme of the celebration this year is INDIGENOUS LEADERSHIP, A GIFT AND TASK FROM GOD. If we are familiar with the realities of the Lumad today, we know that they face serious problems. There are still many lowlanders, politicians and corporations who are using all kinds of means to grab the small areas of land that has remained as their ancestral domain. This has led to their dislocations as they are forced to vacate their ancestral territories to give way to plantations and mining operations.

When they resist to fight for their land rights, they are harassed and threatened.

The ones most affected are their tribal leaders, their chieftains or datus if they manifest a courage to protect the rights of their people.

Thus the theme this year of Indigenous Leadership is so appropriate as their leaders now need the strength and courage to face all kinds of challenges.

Article XVI Section 10 of the Bangsamoro Organic Law (BOL) states that the affected personnel who opt to retire or be separated shall be entitled to any of the following applicable incentives: 100% of the monthly basic salary for every year of government service computed starting from the first year for those who have rendered 1 year to less than 5 years of service; 150% of the actual monthly salary for every year of government service computed starting from the first year for those who have rendered 5 years of service but less than 10 years; or two months of

actual monthly salary for every year of government service computed starting from the first year for those who have rendered 10 years or more of service.

Alba said the first batch can start claiming their separation incentives by November 15 as scheduled by the Department of Budget and Management (DBM).

The Office of the Chief Minister (OCM), Office of the Attorney General (OAG), Cabinet Secretary Asnin Pendatun, and representatives from the different BARMM ministries recently met with the DBM to finalize the timeline for the submission of documents needed for the processing of separation incentives of the employees.

She said the documents were already submitted on Friday, October 11, through the Bangsamoro Government’s Manila Liaison Office (MLO).

“Ang commitment po ng DBM is kapag all the documents are in order, makukuha na ang separation pay nila (1st batch) by November 15, 2019,” Alba said.

Article XVI, Section 10 of the BOL also states that the “affected personnel who are retired or are separated from the service shall not be re-employed in any agency of the Bangsamoro Government of the National government, including government-owned or controlled corporations for a period of (5) five years. The retired or separated personnel who are re-employed during the prohibited period shall refund, on a pro-rated basis, the separation incentives they received under this Section.”

Alba said the hiring for plantilla positions in the BARMM will be opened only when the Bangsamoro Parliament has approved the staffing pattern proposed by the Ministry of Finance, Budget and Management.

“We need to await the approval of the staffing pattern […] once it is approved by the Parliament, that’s the only time that we can publish the permanent positions for application,” Alba said. (Bureau of Public Information/PIA10)

It started operations last September 26 and currently provides generation for Luzon grid, which account for about 72 percent of the country’s domestic expansion.

MGen President Rogelio Singson told journalists after the inauguration that because HELE technology allows the power plant to use high heat, high pressure system it produces about 70 percent less emission compared to a conventional coal-fired power plant.

He admitted that while a coal-fired power plant is less favorable than a renewable energy plant in terms of environmental concern, it is still the cheapest base load.

He, meanwhile, stressed that the company is eyeing to have a 1,200 MW renewable energy plant but cited transmission constraints issue in the country as a hindrance for this plan to materialize. (Joann Villanueva/PNA)

The DepEd-11, on Oct. 8 ordered the closure of 55 controversial Salugpungan Ta’Tanu Igkanogon Community Learning Center, Inc. (STTICLCI) based on the findings of the five-man fact-finding committee created by DepEd-11 in August.

Jenelieto Atillo, DepEd-11 spokesperson, said the decision did not rest solely on STTICLCI’s alleged links with the New People’s Army (NPA), but that the findings showed various regulatory violations, deficiencies, and compliance issues on the part of the school management.

Among the key findings, he said, are as follows: * The STTICLCI failed to comply with the curriculum standards set by DepEd-11; * It brought its students away from their homes without the consent of their parents and used them to generate funds by making

Instead, classes of the core learning areas were conducted by learning facilitators, in violation of DepEd Order 21 series of 2014; * The STTICLCI has been operating within the ancestral domain of tribal communities without obtaining the mandatory Free and Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) and the subsequent certification precondition from the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP); * Some STTICLCI students do not have learner’s reference numbers (LRN), a violation of the requirement of DepEd Order 26 series of 2015; and * The STICLCI has misrepresented its enrolled data, and that the data contained in the document submitted to the DepEd do not match with the records in the DepEd learners’ information system.

Atillo assured that STTICLCI’s closure would not affect its learners, who will be accommodated by DepEdrun schools near their areas.

In the Davao region alone, at least 33 DepEd-run schools are located adjacent to Salugpungan schools.
