The theme for the daylong event was “Legacy and Diplomacy, Celebrating Historical and Modern Ties between the Philippines and Spain.” In his opening remarks, Fr. Roberto Yap, S.J,, XU president, cited Fr. Horacio dela Costa’s 1975 essay In a 1975 essay, “The Filipino: Identikit,” describing how the Philippines is (still) in the process of becoming a nation. “We must steel

ourselves against the shock of finding ourselves in our part of the world a nation of Malay stock, socially structured on a basically Indonesian pattern, obviously the recipient of a large infusion of Chinese blood and attitudes, yet with a cultural heritage in part Spanish, in part AngloSaxon; for this nation will be ourselves.” “The concept of hybridity has continued to trouble Filipinos, who labor under the false impression that it simply implies the blend of two different species, resulting in a “mongrel” culture,” Fr. Yap noted. “A mongrel, mixed-breed dog

or mutt is a dog that does not belong to one recognized breed and is not the result of intentional breeding. In reference to persons, mongrel denotes offensively a person of mixed descent.” However, he further explained how hybridity can result in a new species that is both stronger and more adapted to a different environment and result in a people more resilient and more diverse. De la Costa, the first Filipino who became Provincial Superior of the Jesuits and a well known historian, wrote, “On the part of the national community, an effective willingness not only to accept but to welcome pluralism … we should make it perfectly clear to ourselves that our indigenous culture has been modified by techniques, attitudes, and insights derived from cultures other than our own … and that this contribution is truly an enrichment, not a negation or distortion, of our national values. Diversity is indeed the essence of our culture.” “Our friendship with Spain has certainly enriched us as Filipinos,” Fr. Yap said. “De la Costa significantly observes that: “(i)t was through the mediation of Spain that the ideas of human equality, civic freedom and the rule of law, ideas Hellenic and Christian in origin, became an integral part of Philippine culture.” He further acknowledged our Christian faith as one of the gifts that have blossomed in this friendship between the Philippines and Spain is our Christian Faith.

XU Pres Roberto Yap SJ gives his opening remarks.

In a famous essay that the young De la Costa composed in 1943 during the Japanese occupation entitled “Jewels of the Pauper,” he wrote, “But poor as we are, we yet have something. This pauper among the nations of the earth hides two jewels in her rags. We are a people when we pray. This is our other treasure: our Faith. It gives, somehow, to our little uneventful days a kind of splendor: as though they had been touched by a King.” The conference was conducted under an Agreement on Academic Collaboration between NHCP and XU-ADC in line with the celebration of the 15th Philippine-Spain Friendship Day and the 70th Anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations between the Philippines and Spain. The NHCP is the national government agency mandated to promote Philippine history through its museums, research and publication, and preserve

News in Focus

Nur faces arrest for graft CHARGED with rebellion and violation of international humanitarian law in 2013 but granted temporary liberty since October last year to participate in the peace process, Nur Misuari, founding chair of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) is now facing arrest on charges of corruption while serving as Governor of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) in 2000. The Sandiganb ayan Third Division in a resolution on August 31 found “probable cause for the issuance of warrants of arrest” against Misuari and four others on charges of graft and malversation through falsification of documents in the purchase of P137.5 million worth of textbooks and educational materials in 2000. Misuari was ARMM Governor from September 30, 1996 until he left Sulu for Sabah in late November 2001, after allegedly waging a rebellion in Sulu and Zamboanga. He was arrested upon arrival off Sabah for alleged illegal entry, was returned to the country in January 2002 where he was detained in the bungalow intended for ousted President Joseph Estrada, later at St. Luke’s Hospital and much later in a government-rented white house in New Manila (near

the hospital), freed on bail on April 25, 2008 and later acquitted. According to the 18page August 31 resolution penned by Associate Justice Sarah Jane Fernandez and released on Tuesday, warrants of arrest are to be issued against Misuari in four criminal cases 1017, 1018, 1020 and 1021 while the Sandiganbayan directed the prosecution to present within five days from receipt of the resolution, “additional evidence to establish accused Misuari and (Sittie Aisa) Usman’s participation” in two other criminal cases, 1019 and 1022. According to the Sandiganbayan’s Resolution, the Ombudsman created a Panel of Investigators on November 6, 2013 to conduct a further fact-finding investigation into the alleged ghost purchases of textbooks and projects. The Panel of Investigators filed the complaint on September 5, 2014 and the resolution finding probable cause to charge the accused in the present cases was approved by the Ombudsman on August 15, 2016. The informations charging the accused with graft and malversation through falsification were filed on May 22, 1017. Aside from Misuari, also charged were, among others, former Department of Education regional director

Leovigilda Cinches, supply officer Sittie Aisa Usman, accountant Alladin Usi, chief accountant Pangalian Maniri, and state auditor Nader Macagaan. Extended temporary liberty In May this year, the regional trial court in Pasig which granted a six-month provisional liberty to Misuari in late October last year, granted him an extension of another six months or until November 16, 2017. In a three-page resolution dated May 16, Judge Maria Rowena Modesto San-Pedro of the Regional Trial Court Branch 158 in Pasig City granted Misuari’s “Motion for Extension of Period of Suspension of Proceedings and Implementation of Warrant of Arrest.” Within this six month period, the court directed the Philippine National Police, Armed Forces of the Philippines, the National Bureau of Investigation and other law enforcement agencies to “suspend as well, the enforcement of the Warrants of Arrest issued against the accused Misuari.” The court gave Misuari temporary liberty in October last year “to allow him to attend peace talk sessions with the government.” The court granted a six-month period of suspension of proceedings and enforce-

ment of warrants of arrests from October 27 to April 27, “unless sooner lifted by the court.” Warrants of arrest were issued against Misuari and 59 others in 2013 for rebellion and violation of Republic Act 9851 or the Philippine Act on Crimes Against International Humanitarian Law, Genocide and other Crimes against Humanity following the September 2013 stand-off in Zamboanga City between his followers and government troops that left 137 persons dead, 251 injured and 118,889 of the city’s 807,000 population displaced, according to the National Disaster Risk Re-

duction and Management Council’s October 2, 2013 report. 1976, 1996 peace pacts Misuari signed the December 23, 1976 Tripoli Agreement under the Marcos administration and the September 2, 1996 Final Peace Agreement under the Ramos administration. His faction did not participate in the 21-member Bangsamoro Transition Commission that was tasked to draft a Bangsamoro Basic Law that would pave the way for the creation of the Bangsamoro, a new autonomous political entity that would replace the ARMM in accordance with the Com-

prehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro signed by government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) on March 27, 2014. The commission has three representatives from the other MNLF factions. Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process Jesus Dureza set up a separate peace implementing panel for the MNLF-Misuari faction in November last year.

The CYNOSURE

Ambitious, impertinent Metropolitan Cag. De Oro In the past days, a story about the conversion of Cagayan De Oro City into a “metropolitan” city has been circulating. The CYNOSURE says this is ridiculous and presumptuous. City Councilor Ian Nacaya is reportedly pushing for the conversion of the city into a metropolitan city. With malice to none, one could only say the ignorance of Nacaya about how a city is accorded the title as a metropolitan city. The City Council, which passed the resolution urging the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) and the Regional Development Council (RDC), could not be faulted for passing the resolution. After all, it was Nacaya, as the majority floor leader, who must have sponsored the resolution and convince the august body for the passage of the resolution. In his interviews with some local media, Nacaya narrated that the conversion of the Cagayan De Oro City

into a metropolitan city has been taken into account during the time of the late Mayor Ambing Magtajas. In fairness, it was during the time of Magtajas in the early 90s that Cagayan De Oro City’s real estate was bullish. The development and expansion of subdivisions created a flourishing local economy, which agitated the downstream economy. For the information of Nacaya, this writer coined the phrase “Metropolitan Cagayan De Oro City” as part of branding the city to lure more investors to come. Thus, the CYNOSURE then made a point to describe Cagayan De Oro as a metropolitan city in order to stimulate economic growth in the locality. Another important economic phrase that the CYNOSURE has originally promoted in its writings in the national newswire service was the Borneo, Indonesia, Malaysia and Philippines East Asian Growth Area

(BIMP-EAGA) economic partnership. The BIMP-EAGA concept was based on the economic flagship of then Pres. Fidel V. Ramos in Mindanao, particularly with the development of the Cagayan De Oro-Iligan Economic Corridor and the establishment of the Davao-Manado commercial route. The idea of linking the BIMP together as an economic bloc was conceptualized because of the proximity of the country to Mindanao. Undoubtedly, Nacaya was a neophyte at that time. Having started his political career as an SK representative, his understanding of sociopolitical economy was still incomprehensible. Now, as majority floor leader of the city council, Nacaya believes that, after all those years, he has politically and economically matured. Thus, he is pushing for the conversion of Cagayan De Oro City into a metropolis. The CYNO-

Cris Diaz

SURE thinks otherwise. First, Nacaya should understand what is meant by a “metropolitan” city. A metropolitan city should have, at least, 2 million people. In fact, it is only Quezon City, which would technically qualify as a metropolitan city. Tell us, what other city(ies) in the Philippines with a population of over 2 million people. Except for Quezon City with a population of 2.7 million people, the Population of Cities in the Philippines (2017) by the World Population Review, listed only four cities in the country with over one million people. Manila has only 1.6 million, the second is Budta, an unknown, but the largest city in Maguindanao with a population of 1.27 million, higher than Davao City’s 1.21, and the fourth Malingao, another city in the Province Cotabato, with 1.12 million people.

the world. Kim Jong Un has reportedly killed his own uncle one, of the top army generals in his leadership because the latter opposed some of Un’s plans. Another top military officer was reportedly assassinated for the same reason. By that alone, we have enough basis to conclude the kind of a man this young guy leading North Korea. I don’t see a huge problem with North Korea except that it hated so much its neighbor, the South Korea and the United States. I see there is no supporting facts for such hatred except unimaginable, lust, ambition and plain shenanigans. ****** The government is now beginning to rehabilitate Marawi City back to its former form. The United States has offered millions of dollars for the purpose. Some evacuees were allowed to return home, especially those located in safe areas away from the scenes of combat. Reports revealed some of the refugees rejected the food assistance like rice and canned goods because they needed cash assistance. This is riding on opportunities that is absolutely bad if the report is true. I hope the final bullets in the fight will be fired now and hostilities ended. I still strongly suggest that the military should not abandon the

fighting until the terrorists are all killed or held in custody. ****** Most of the problems in the country are being settled now, except those happening in Congress. Sen. Trillianes, one of the few opposition leaders who is guarding well the legislative body is in turmoil with attacks from colleagues. I still hope Trillianes will succeed because our country needs the opposition group to safeguard the interest of democracy. I urge more opposition leaders to come out in the open and join the group of Trillianes ****** The NPA rebels have caused many construction workers out of a job because they burned heavy equipment and tools in its fight against the government. As I said earlier, the NPA loves to attack equipment because it is safer since it cannot return fire. This is plain cowardice and simply a disturbance that destroys our economy. I hope they will fight face-to-face our soldiers so they will see the real battle with flying bullets hitting the stomach. Gen. Douglas McArthur did not win the war in our country by staying away. He came to where the smokes of gunfire existed and saved the Filipinos from the Japanese invasion. Joma Sison will

never get his dreams of government take over because he is afraid to fight. Now he is getting much older and with more reason he will fail in his endeavors. ****** Impeachments here and there are wasting time, efforts and money of the government. I hope our leaders and people stop such futile actuation and join hands towards progress and development. Only dogs bark at each other and as people, we should show our love and concern for one another. We need to grow for our coming generation. Once more I urge President Duterte to invest more funds to develop our venture in agriculture. We must stop importing rice from other country. We should survive by our own initiative. It is a shame that we depend so much of the food we eat from other countries when we could produce them here, This is laziness or failure in the minds. Let us encourage our farmers to do their best by giving them cash assistance, modern agricultural techniques and others. (Bennex News Service)

concurrent spokesperson of Misuari, said they will no longer submit their proposed amendatory law to enhance the ARMM but will instead push for federalism. “In line with conversations between President Rodrigo Duterte and MNLF Chairman Nur Misuari in the previous five meetings which among others touched on federalism, the MNLF will no longer submit a draft New Autonomy Law to avoid complications. The MNLF-GPH Process will have to contribute directly to the fast tracking of federalism,” Parcasio told MindaNews.

Parcasio issued the statement after Misuari led a delegation that paid a courtesy call on President Duterte in Malacanang on July 18, a day after BTC’s submission of the BBL. MindaNews sought Parcasio for Misuari’s statement on the Sandiganbayn resolution but Parcasio has not replied as of 5 p.m. Wednesday. (Carolyn O. Arguillas / MindaNews)

Normin’s livestock industry to strengthen to Asean standards By MARK FRANCISCO

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – The Board of Investments (BOI) is looking for ways to elevate the livestock industry of Northern Mindanao at par with Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) standards. In this era of Asean integration, BOI Investment Assistance Service director Raul Angeles said that the prolific livestock industry of Region 10 is a potential export that must first be competitive with its Southeast Asian neighbors so it could capture the market. Angeles said that BOI is offering various programs and technical assistance at the local level so homegrown businesses like the livestock producers here could benefit. Northern Mindanao has around 270,000 heads of cattle, 234,300 goats, 124,000 carabaos, 899,200 hogs, 7.3 million broilers, 7.6 million native chickens and 3.3 million layer chickens. Angeles’ team was in this city last Wednesday to disseminate the 2017 Investment Priorities Plan for the region.

The 2017 Investment Priorities Plan will serve as a blueprint in guiding Filipino and foreign investors in matching their entrepreneurial and financial capacities with the identified opportunities to steer the country’s economic growth to a broader and sustainable path. It aspires to maintain the Philippines’ competencies while developing sectors with potential for inclusive growth by connecting micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to the global value chain. The new IPP has been broadened to encourage and attract new capital in sectors and regions that address the inequality of growth and employment. New priority activities for the 2017 IPP are innovation drivers to underscore the important role of research and development and inclusive business models for agribusiness and tourism which fosters income and business opportunities for the poor or low earners of society by integrating them to engage in business or jobs with the supply chain or medium or large companies.

Lower House honors Metrobank Outstanding Filipino awardees HIOUSE Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez on Wednesday led lawmakers in giving recognition to 10 awardees of the 2017 Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos who were chosen on the basis of their exemplary contribution to the academe, armed forces, and police sectors. The winners were present during the recognition rites held at the Speaker’s Social Hall wherein Alvarez handed each one of them a certificate of recognition for the services they rendered above and beyond the call of duty and their pursuit of excellence for the greater good of the Filipino society. This year’s batch of winners consists of four teachers, three soldiers, and three police officers. Five of them hail from Mindanao. “The House of Representatives stands by and support you and we’ll work on legislation that will ensure that your effort will neither be in vain nor forgotten,” said Alvarez.

The Speaker, who is from Davao del Norte, said he was glad to witness the ceremony honoring fellow Mindanaoans for protecting peace and saving lives. “As a public servant, I am proud to stand before you all as you receive the distinction you deserve for being the heroes of this generation and for your unwavering contribution to nation-building,” he said. The Speaker called the awardees “heroes of this generation” and cited their unwavering contribution to nation building. “Your dedication to your profession is most timely, especially since a lot of young people do not see the difficult life of a public servant,” said Alvarez. “Tingnan nyo naman, ang daming kahanga-hangang police officers, tapos yung nababalita lang yung mga scalawags na involved dun sa murder. So, dapat tingnan din natin na hindi lahat,” Speaker said after

President Duterte graces ASEAN Business Awards President Rodrigo Roa Duterte on Wednesday, September 6, led the ASEAN Business Awards 2017 and called on the awardees to help their fellow entrepreneurs, especially the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). “It is now your responsibility to help your fellow entrepreneurs do better and achieve more, to propel micro entrepreneurs to become small, and the small to become medium and so on,” President Duterte said in his

speech at the Solaire Resort and Casino in Parañaque City. “You are the next breed of role models, and I look forward to your becoming the future mentors,” he said. The President, at the same time, urged other entrepreneurs in the region to “follow their example and become beacons of innovation and change towards poverty eradication and economic development in your respective countries.” “Let the accomplishments of our honorees serve as an example for the whole

region that MSMEs are key drivers and contributors to greater employment opportunities and more resilient economies in ASEAN. Simply put, supporting [them] means supporting the growth of the ASEAN countries,” he said. The ASEAN Business Awards 2017 recognizes outstanding ASEAN enterprises that contributed to the growth and prosperity of the region. “Tonight, we recognize the finalists and awardees for their outstanding performance in their respective

communities,” he said. “We also acknowledge outstanding companies that made significant social impact through their inclusive business models which enable us to achieve inclusive growth and prosperity for all,” he added. Also during his speech, the President cited the role of the ASEAN Business Advisory Council (ABAC), which has been instrumental in realizing common aspirations of inclusive growth for the

recognizing the awardees. R e p. R am on “R e d” Durano VI (5th District, Cebu), chairman of the House committee on basic education and culture, said the recognition shows that the House of Representatives continues to share in the pride and honor of deserving and exceptional members of society. Rep. Leopoldo Bataoil (2nd District, Pangasinan), a retired police general, said the occasion was meaningful to him especially since he belongs to a family of teachers and was a part of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) before joining the Philippine National Police (PNP). Meanwhile, Rep. Ro-

meo Acop (2nd District, Antipolo City), chairman of the committee on public order and safety, said they affirm and recognize the awardees’ achievements. “We hope the accomplishments of these exceptional individuals will encourage other Filipinos to emulate them as they help fulfill the long dream of national growth and development,” said Acop, also a retired police general. Metrobank this year leveled up its recognition program by imposing a more stringent and rigorous selection process. It gave each awardee an incentive of P1 million, a gold medallion, and a trophy. Of the 20 finalists, the

Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos chose 10 awardees as “Metrobank Foundation Fellows” in public service. The 10 awardees were chosen by a Final Board of Judges composed of Senator Panfilo “Ping” Lacson, Rep. Feliciano Belmonte Jr. (4th District, Quezon City), Court of Appeals Associate Justice Magdangal de Leon, US Ambassador to the Philippines Sung Kim, Manila Electric Company president and CEO Oscar Reyes, Asian Institute of Management president and dean Dr. Jikyeong Kang, Palo Archbishop John Du, and GMA Network senior vice president for radio Miguel “Mike” Enriquez.

EDITOR: Cris diaz

DAVAO CITY -- Councilor Nilo “Small” Abellera is considering the filing of a case against Customs broker Mark Taguba for implicating him in the alleged “Davao Group” tagged in smuggling activities in the city.

“We are now thinking about the possibility of filing charges, but for now there is no finality yet because we are still focusing on the Senate hearing since I need to clear my name first,” he said. Abellera , who is now in his last term as a city councilor, admitted he was offended by Taguba’s allegation, especially that he has no knowledge about the issue.

people. “It has served as a platform for the private sector to provide valuable guidance in empowering our entrepreneurs to become the bedrock of a stronger regional economy,” Duterte said. For the part of the Philippines, President Duterte said initiatives were undertaken to create an enabling, nurturing, and globally competitive business environment [for] our entrepreneurs. “We have pushed for the promotion and integration of MSMEs across all sectors in the Philippines, the development of an innovation-driven economy, and the promotion of women and [youth] entrepreneurship in all sectors,” he said. In addition, those who achieved success and wealth were challenged to embrace inclusivity by helping MSMEs. “I now extend this call to other big businesses in the region. Embrace MSMEs in your supply chains, open up your retail stores, and integrate these small entrepreneurs [into] the way you do business,” he said. The President also underscored the need for concrete action to eliminate the inequities in the region. “This is why it is my fervent hope that all ASEAN memberstates would continue to support local businesses through governmental and private endeavors that would make it easier for them to grow, flourish, and contribute to the development of their communities, their countries, and the entire region,” Duterte said. Prior to the awarding rites, ASEAN Secretary General Le Luong Minh, and ASEAN Economic Ministers paid a courtesy call on President Duterte. Among those who were welcomed by the President in-

clude Indonesian Trade Minister Enggartiasto Lukita, Lao PDR Minister of Industry and Commerce Khemmani Pholsena, Brunei Second Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Pehin Dato Lim Jock Seng, Cambodian Director General of Ministry of Commerce Sim Sokheng, and Malaysian Minister of International Industry and Commerce Dato Sri Mustapa Bin Mohamed. The President also met with Myanmar Union Minister of Planning and Finance U Kyaw Win, Thailand Director General of the Department of Trade Negotiations Boonyarit Kalayanamit, Vietnam Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Quoc Khanh, and Singapore Minister of Trade and Industry Lim Hng Kiang. Accompanying the President were Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea, Trade Secretary Ramon Lopez, Trade Undersecretary Ceferino Rodolfo, and Special Assistant to the President Christopher “Bong” Go. ###PND

Philippine–Spanish Friendship Day (Día de la Amistad entre España y Filipinas or Día de la Amistad HispanoFilipina) celebrates the strong links between the Republic of the Philippines and the Kingdom of Spain every June 30. It was established by Republic Act No. 9187 on 22 July 2002, in commemoration of the day when General Emilio Aguinaldo, president of the First Philippine Republic, issued a decree requiring the last Spanish soldiers who had been besieged for almost a year inside Baler's (Aurora) church be treated not as enemies and prisoners of war, but as friends. It also ordered that they receive the necessary permission for

Friday, September 8, 2017 their return to Spain. These diplomatic ties established in 1947 mirrored our countries’ mutual commitment to pursue beneficial initiatives as it recognized our unique connections in history. It is also a fortunate circumstance that 70 years ago, one of the earliest texts and illustrations on the Philippines in the 16th century came into the possession of Professor Charles R. Boxer, which now bears the name Boxer Codex. “The manuscript describes the customs of the Filipinos in Luzon and the Visayas, but it is best known for the illustrations that are the earliest representations of the Tagalogs, Visayans, Cagayanons and Negritos,” said Kristian Ian Sulmayor, XU History Dept. Head. “The content of the Boxer Codex presents us with the initial contact between two worlds, signaling the beginning of the history of our relations.” Since 2006, Philippine– Spanish Friendship Day has been simultaneously celebrated and organized in various locations in Spain (Madrid, Barcelona, Palencia and Almonte in Huelva). In Madrid, several institutions such as the Philippine Embassy and the Asociación Cultural Galeón de Manila celebrate this Friendship Day since 2009. It has also been hosted by several cities and provinces around the country like Malolos, Zamboanga, Iloilo, Bohol, Iligan, Manila, Vigan and most frequently by Baler, Aurora. “Healthy friendships will always involve quarrels and misunderstandings, good times and bad, ups and downs, but friendships endure because of the gifts, comfort, support, shared with each other,” Fr. Yap said. “In this conference may we celebrate Philippine – Spanish friendship, a friendship that has stood the test of time.”

Granting without admitting, the inevitability of the creation of the Metropolitan Cagayan De Oro, will it qualify? Nobody thinks so. A combined population of the municipal towns of Jasaan to Laguindingan and Cagayan De Oro City would not even reach the 1 million population mark. Nacaya argued that as a metropolitan city, more investors would come to Cagayan De Oro City. He said that more projects would be poured in. This is a very flimsy argument. Why? Did Nacaya think that the Metropolitan Cagayan De Oro would enjoy more budget for infrastructure projects? Nacaya should understand that NEDA has no authority to convert Cagayan De Oro City to become a Metropolitan city. The RDC only identifies regional issues and concerns of economic importance. The CYNOSURE advices Nacaya to read more and be practical. -o Email reaction/comments: crisguardian@yahoo.com

Now that the city government has brought the social services there, she said it seemed to anger the New People’s Army (NPA), whose fighters are operating in the mountains of Gingoog.

recently, the NPA allegedly took the chainsaw that the people used to cut trees to build a school building for the indigenous community there, Guingona said. Lieutenant Colonel Francis Carandang, the commanding officer of the Philippine Army’s 58th Infantry Battalion, said at least three NPA units are present in Gingoog and its boundaries – the Guerrilla Fronts 4A, 4B, and 4C. It can also be recalled that former Gingoog mayor and now that city’s Vice Mayor Ruth Guingona was injured when NPA rebels fired on her convoy in Barangay Alatagan in 2013. Two of her escorts were killed in that ambush. Last August 25, more than a hundred NPA fighters took 10 workers of a construction company by force, including its vehicles and some P1.2 million in cash, when they set up a roadblock in Barangay Eureka in Gingoog. Superintendent Roel Lamiing, the Gingoog police chief, said about 130 NPA members belonging to the Guerrilla Front 4B, led by a certain “Commander Dahon,” carried out the attack. But despite the sporadic combat movements of the NPA, Carandang said the NPA rebels’ presence in Gingoog has actually dwindled as they retreated into the far-flung environs. “They now find it hard to penetrate the heavily populated areas since their contacts on the ground are now cooperating with the government forces,” Carandang said. In the past, the insurgents lingered in villages near the national highway, but lately they have stayed away from the barangays near the “poEXTRA-JUDICIAL PARTITION AND SETTLEMENT OF A PARCEL OF LAND WITH SALE Notice is hereby given that the intestate estate of the late spouses MATIAS and EPIFANIA CARTAGENA, who died on June 17, 2000 and May 23, 1998, respectively at Bulua, Cagayan de Oro City; That the deceased, at the time of his death, left a parcel of land covered by TRANSFER CERTIFICATE OF TITLE NO.

In the decision, the HRET noted that Darimbang’s election protest is sufficient in form and substance after determining that the electoral frauds, anomalies and irregularities complained of “were sufficiently alleged and were adequate for protestee (Uy) to set up his defense.” Last Tuesday, HRET informed Uy, Darimbang, the C ommission on Elections (Comelec) and ballots custodian City Treasurer’s Office for the transfer of the ballots from Cagayan de Oro City to Manila where manual recount of the contested votes would take place.
