CAMP EVANGELISTA, Cagayan de Oro City – Negotiations for the release of two police officers and seven militias captured by the communist New People’s Army (NPA) in Mindanao were being worked out, a top military officer said on Tuesday.

the armed rebels in various areas in Northern Mindanao. Bongasia, however, said that the military is not releasing the names of the victims for security reasons and while negotiations for their release are going on. “The military is not releasing the name of the victim in order not to jeopardize the security of their families,” Bongasia said. On Monday, George Mad-

los a.k.a. went on air on a local radio station here, saying the NPA captured nine (not 10 as reported earlier), in checkpoints mounted by the rebel forces in various areas in Northern Mindanao.

FSUU reveals 3rd Opinion Poll results By Jennifer P. Gaitano

BUTUAN CITY - The Father Saturnino Urios University Policy Center (FSUUPC) revealed the results of the third phase of a four-series May 2013 Opinion Poll Survey culled last April 1-7, 2013 from the 1,833 new set of respondents taken from the 86 barangays of this city. According to FSUUPC Director Josefe Sorrera-Ty, like in the two surveys conducted last January 23-30, 2013 and March 7-15, 2013, it employed the proportional sampling method to gather data from registered voters of Butuan City. “The respondents from each barangay were purposively chosen to represent age classification: Youth (18-30 years old), Adult (31-

59 years old), and Seniors (60 years old and above). The respondents represent 1% of the total registered voters in the city of Butuan with a 10% margin of error in the sample size,” Ty explained. Based on the results of its third phase Opinion Poll Survey, the most preferred candidate for the congressional seat is Atty. Lawrence Fortun with

43.15%, followed by Roan “The youth showed a higher preference Libarios with 21.55% while for Fortun, while the senior group has the undecided voters now at highest percentage of undecided voters. The 35.30%. increased rating of Fortun from the previous survey to that of the current one is significant from the youth and the adult groups. The decrease in the ratings of Libarios is also significant across age levels,” said Dr.

Celebrating World Health Day BUTUAN CITY, -- Every year on April 7, World Health Day commemorates the founding anniversary of the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1948. A theme is selected yearly to better give emphasis on a certain area of public health in the world. This year, the theme is High Blood Pressure. About one in 10 people in their 20s and 30s to five in every 10 people in their 50s or one in every three adults have high blood pressure worldwide(WHO). Hypertension – the rise in blood pressure increases the risk of developing heart attacks, strokes and kidney failure. Measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), blood pressure is recorded in two numbers, oftentimes one on top of another. These two numbers represent the systolic blood pressure, or the highest pressure in a blood vessel, which occurs when the

heart contracts, and the diastolic blood pressure of the lowest pressure in a blood vessel that occurs between heartbeats when the heart muscle relaxes. The normal adult blood pressure is defined as a systolic blood pressure of 120 mmHg and a diastolic blood pressure of 80 mmHg. A normal blood pressure level is vital for the efficient functioning of vital body organs such as the heart, the brain, and the kidneys for overall health and wellbeing. An elevation from the normal blood pressure or a systolic blood pressure equal to or greater than 140 mmHg and/or a diastolic blood pressure equal to or greater than 90 mmHg. High blood pressure may lead to the enlargement of the heart, heart attack and, eventually, heart failure. Under high pressure, the blood vessels may eventually develop bulges and weak spots making them more likely to burst or clog up.

Small blood vessels inside major body organs are more likely to get affected such as the brain, the heart and the kidneys. High blood pressure may cause a stroke, kidney failure, blindness or cognitive impairment. “Tobacco use contributes to the development of high blood pressure. Some of the 7,000 chemicals in tobacco damage the walls of your arteries causing them to narrow, contributing to the risk of developing high blood pressure,” said Delma Legaspi, during the training on smoking cessation held at Luciana Convention Center, Butuan City. Graced by representatives from various municipalities and cities in the Caraga region, the training was conducted to better strengthen the fight against tobacco use though the establishment of Smoking Cessation Clinics throughout the region.

to talk to a Nazi youth. But by staying calm and carefully choosing his words, Heinz surprised even himself when he talked his way out of trouble and convinced this bully not to hurt him but to let him go. That day, Heinz discovered his survival skill of talking and reasoning with others. It was a major

turning point that changed his life—and later changed the world. After a few years, Heinz’s family escaped from Germany and moved to America. But Heinz never forgot how to talk with people and help bring peace between enemies. You see, that 11-year-old boy who had negotiated his first peace settlement with a Nazi bully, later became one of the greatest ambassadors of peace in the world. You’ve probably heard of him… not as Heinz…but by his American name: Henry Kissinger, the former U. S. Secretary of State. Think a Minute…

ONE of the unexplored small enterprises that have not been given importance in Mindanao is the footwear industry for the need of more than 25 million Mindanaons and to the other 67million Filipinos. Many of the shoes and foot wear that are displayed and sold in the malls or the local stalls are imported brand coming from the Peoples Republic of China. Others are under foreign manufacturing licenses which are either made in Vietnam or Malaysia. The same with the second hand shoes peddled by hawkers at the “ukayukay” stores are Hongkong if not Korean made. How did this disparity of free trade and importation manage to slip in our country viz a viz to our exports? Why were the importations of used and second hand shoes allowed by the Bureau of Customs? This could be the primary reason why the Philippine shoe products from the 20 or more Marikina manufacturers are losing its competitiveness against the imported foot wears flooding the local

Traversing the Tourism Hi-way Ped T. Quiamjot market? The provinces of Masbate and Bukidnon have abundant source of raw hide leather coming from the cattle industries of these regions. High quality material can also be produced from the skins of crocodiles cultured in the Farms of Puerto Princesa and the Crocodile Farm of Davao City. Various livestock industries in the Philippines have the capacity for the raw hide materials. Goat skins can be made into fine leather but we like to cook and eat them instead as “Papaitan”. We have many local designers that have earned accolades in the fashion scenes abroad yet Philippine shoe products are unheard in the international fashion scene. During the early 80’s

when the former First Lady Imelda Marcos used to order dozens of shoes from the local Marikina producers to be worn for her countless trips abroad. She was widely criticized for her extravagance and branded as “Imeldefic”. Few took credits that she was advertising and promoting Philippine made foot wears abroad. Nobody took notice that when the Philippine Trade Center was opened in New York located at the famous World Trade Center Building many Philippine shoe products were prominently leveled and displayed. The Philippine Trade exhibits has long ceased and closed before the World Trade Center was bombed and destroyed in the famous 911 incident. The footwear industry

is one of the most important economic activities next to food and clothing. People moved and travel with all types of shoes and footwear’s in their lifetime. Man can survive not to have a luxury vehicle or an Armani suite but he may not do without shoes. We provide our children a minimum of three types of foot wears a year for their safety and comfort. The same with the pragmatic thinking of an average Filipino to own the basic 3 foot wears, of a slipper, a leather shoes and an athletic shoes to as far as our indigenous brothers who lives in the mountains of Compostela Valley and the Igorots of Banue. While travelling around the major cities of Mindanao, it came to the reality of our economics that we have not been able to produce a single shoe manufacturing plant in our region to deliver the 75 million pairs of footwear worn by more than 25 million Mindanaons.

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, -- Thirty municipalities and two cities of Northern Mindanao will implement the Sagana at Ligtas na Tubig sa Lahat (Salintubig) project this 2013. Salintubig is a project of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), Department of Health (DOH) and the National Anti-Poverty Commission (NAPC) designed to provide water supply systems to waterless municipalities, barangays, health centers and resettlement sites. Lawyer Rene K. Burdeos, DILG Region 10 regional director, said the project aims to enhance the capacity of local government units (LGUs) and water service providers in planning, implementing and operating water supply facilities. Sixteen of the target beneficiaries come from the province of Bukidnon, eight from Lanao del Norte, seven from Misamis Occidental

and one from Camiguin. DILG 10 is set to release P50.21 million for the first tranche of the fund allocation to 32 LGUs who will qualify for the project. Prior to the release, 11 documentary requirements will have to be submitted by the LGUs to DILG, namely: approved simplified feasibility study, executive summary of project, seal of good housekeeping certification and Sangguniang Bayan resolution, among others. The LGUs will undergo validation to determine their capability in ensuring the sustainability of the project. Three Salintubig projects of 2011 have been completed in the municipalities of Lala (Lanao del Norte), Laguindingan (Misamis Oriental) and Kibawe (Bukidnon). Meanwhile, f ive water projects of 2012 are on-going in Manticao (Misamis Oriental), Bonifacio and Sinacaban (Misamis Occidental) and the cities of Tangub and Iligan, while another three have not started yet.

Power... to be exempted from the Electric Power Industry Reform Act of 2001 (EPIRA) nd the region’s heavy reliance on the use hydro-powered plants, the chief executive said. He said previous leaders assumed that cheap hydro power could last forever neglecting the fact that the hydropower plants are machines that need to be maintained, improved and replaced. And instead of actively protecting the source of hydropower, illegal logging was allowed to continue, destroying watersheds and was compounded by the effects of climate change, he said. But with the construction of cleaner coal-powered plants in Mindanao, President Aquino said he expects the region’s energy woes to be a thing of the past. Since taking office in 2010, he said his administration immediately began making the structural changes that encouraged the private sector to come in and put up power plants. For instance, last year, Aboitiz began a project to build two coal-fired power plants in Davao, which will provide a total of 300 megawatts. The project will be finished by late 2015, he said. “By then, with all the projects we have lined up, we fully expect that this problem will be a thing of the past. And hopefully, the thinking that led us to this problem will also be a thing of the past,” he said. Also, the President said the Sultan of Brunei, who visited the country this week, expressed his serious intention to bring natural gas to Mindanao. The memorandums of understanding have already been signed for this project, he said. Filinvest’s Misamis Oriental project is a significant part of the long-term solution for Mindanao’s energy problems, according to the President. “This signing gives us peace of mind that the permanent solutions are being put in place. By 2016, these three plants, by themselves, will be providing 405 megawatts of coal power to the Mindanao grid. (The figures, I think, should be checked a little.) With the energy these plants will be producing, by 2016, we expect production capacity to be almost 470 megawatts above peak demand,” he said. The government, in cooperation with the private sector, not only increases Mindanao’s maximum capacity but also reinforces the region’s entire energy supply with more reliable and stable sources. “We are making their energy infrastructure much more competitive. We should also not forget that in constructing these power plants, Filinvest will be njecting P29-30 billion into Mindanao’s economy, while giving jobs to two thousand workers in the process.”

to vote and exercise their duty in selecting the leaders of this country.” At the same time, Villar said Commission on Elections (Comelec) and the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) personnel should see to it that the conduct of the overseas absentee vote should be honest and orderly in order to maintain the integrity of the process. “Allowing our OFWs to participate in our elections is one significant way we can acknowledge their contribution to the country,” Villar explain. “They are our modern-day heroes and it is still through their remittances that the Philippine economy has remained upfloat.” Villar said she was satisfied with the preparation and information conducted jointly by the Comelec and DFA but added that she would not be surprised of last-minutes problems would still arise in various polling centers for Filipino abroad. Under the Overseas Absentee voting Act, Villar said, Filipino officials posted in embassies and consulate offices were mandated to extend all forms of assistance to encourage overseas Filipinos to make use of their voting right and to help them overcome problems in registering and casting their ballots. Comelec Commissioner Lucenito Tagle said some 900,000 Filipinos abroad are set to cast their absentee votes starting Saturday and that the pill body had completed preparations for the conduct of the overseas absentee voting. Tagle, chairman of the Comelec’s Committee on Overseas Absentee Voting (COAV) said the first to vote using the automated machines are Filipinos in Hong Kong, followed by Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.. OAV is set to be held on Sunday at the Bayanihan Center in Victoria Road, Kennedy Town and at the Philippine embassy on D3 Collector Road C Diplomatic, Riyadh. Filipinos in the UAE will vote at the Philippine embassy on Al Bateen, Abu Dhabi. Tagle said they have scheduled on Thursday the FTS at the Philippine embassy in Singapore on Nassim Road and the Philippine Consulate General in Dubai on Al Quasis Area 3. On Friday, the FTS will be at the Philippine Consulate General in Jeddah on the Rehab District and Philippine embassy in Kuwait on Faiha. The Comelec opted to hold automated polls in areas where there’s a large concentration of Filipinos. Comelec records showed Hong Kong has 83,118 voters; 50,063 in Singapore; 55,842 in Dubai; 30,328 in Jeddah; 30,468 in Kuwait; 53,396 in Riyadh; and 21,645 in Abu Dhabi.

Farmers...

Marbel-I RIS, Marbel-II RIS and Banga RIS. The three irrigation facilities serve around 6,000 hectares of farmlands in Koronadal City and nearby municipalities of Banga, Tampakan and Tantangan

in South Cotabato. “We issued an El Niño advisory to our farmers so they can prepare for some other alternatives. Right now, our irrigation supplies are continually dwindling and it might even worsen in the coming weeks,” Tibang said in an interview over radio station Bombo Radyo. The official said they might be forced to cut down on their supplies to local farmers if the dry spell will continue for another week. Some parts of South Cotabato has been experiencing below normal rainfall since last month due to the unusually intense dry weather condition. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) earlier said the intense weather, which worsened with the onset of the summer season last month, might extend until early May. Tibang urged local farmers within the affected areas to save on their usage of irrigation supplies until the situation stabilizes later on. “We’re also implementing some water management measures right now to cope with the situation,” he said. Meantime, agriculture officials in the area reiterated that rice supplies in the province have remained sufficient and they expect the situation to continue in the coming months despite the rehabilitation and maintenance shutdown starting on Tuesday of the Allah RIS in Surallah town. Allah RIS, which covers around 12,000 hectares of palay production areas in the province’s upper valley area, will close down for two months. Reynaldo Legaste, South Cotabato provincial agriculturist, said they were earlier informed by NIA that it will proceed with the closure of the Allah RIS to facilitate its routine rehabilitation and maintenance. Last year, a major portion of the facility was shut down by NIA for about three months to rehabilitate its critical dam facility along the Allah River and line canals that traverse three rice-producing municipalities in the area.

not working in the shoe manufacturing sector in our country. Do we lack investors to explore its development? Or the Board of Investments has forgotten to promote or encourage shoe manufacturing in Mindanao, a reason many prefer instead to wear the imported shoes associated with the tongue twisting foreign brands? With the BOI mandate to promote bilateral trade pacts with the free economic enterprise worldwide, expanding the one town one product in Mindanao may need the BOI endorsement for the possibility of a shoe brand to be manufactured at the Phividec industrial estate in Misamis Oriental Many Economic Zones in this country were created and funded by the government to pump prime the manufacturing sector. Business locators were granted tax incentives to reduce the cost of doing business and be competitive in the export market. Filipino entrepreneurs as it appears are on the top list for lending support by government banking institutions to raise capital.

Aquino...

from page 2 Aquino, the younger Aquino’s aunt who was also an advocate of poverty alleviation through micro-enterprise. For his part, Bam Aquino says that the endorsement is nothing short of humbling. “I have been an admirer of Denis and Alice Mur-

phy’s work with the urban poor for years now, and I am extremely humbled to have their group’s trust and confidence. There is much that I can learn from their lifelong work, and I only hope to be able to live up to their example.” Aquino also said, “Lubos po akong nagpapasalamat sa tiwalang ibinigay niyo sa akin. Mula pa po sa aking kabataan, dahil sa ehemplong ipinakita nina Tito Ninoy at Tita Cory, natatak na po sa aking isipan na kailangang ipaglaban ang karapatan ng mga kababayan nating nawalan ng boses sa lipunan. Nandito po ako para matuto at makinig, at nandito po ako para ipaglaban ang inyong

mga karapatan. Naniniwala ako na kaya nating umangat muli kung tulung-tulong at sama-sama tayong kikilos. Sisikapin ko po hanggang sa aking makakaya na walang maiiwan dito sa Tuwid na Daan.”

SKorea expects north’s missile test by Monday UNITED States and South Korean forces remain on heightened alert for a North Korean missile test that officials say could take place at any time. Seoul’s defense ministry on Thursday said it is at a “full readiness posture” as it monitors the North for possible launches. A spokesperson said the South believes the test could take place on or before the Monday birthday of North Korea’s late founding leader, Kim Il Sung. But the defense ministry refused to comment on a report by Japan’s Kyodo news agency, which on Thursday quoted an unnamed Tokyo defense official as saying Pyongyang has placed a missile launcher in a raised position in apparent preparation for a test. Joint U.S.-South Korean forces have already raised their alert level to “WatchCon 2,” indicating a vital threat is present. At the Pentagon, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel warned Pyongyang against making more threats. At the Pentagon, U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel warned Pyongyang a g a i n s t m a k i n g m ore threats. “North Korea has been, with its bellicose rhetoric, with its action, has been skating very close to a dangerous line. Their actions and words have not helped defuse a combustible situation,’’ Hagel said. South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-Se told lawmakers Wednesday it is “highly likely” North Korea will test one of its new missiles “at any time.” “We believe that the missile will be a Musudan, which is a new form of mid-range missile with a range of 3,500 kilometers. How far it will travel depends on North Korea’s will,” Byung-Se said. Lines of communication Meanwhile, diplomats are scrambling to maintain possible lines of communication with Pyongyang and ease tensions. “ERRATUM” In the application of extension of certificate of public convenience of BENJIE DAMING under CaseNo;2013- 10-558 that Talisayan was omitted as published ,That the route should be Puerto to Salay-Balingasag-Talisayan and vice versa.

City Hall welcomes Rotary Group Study Exchange Team CITY HALL welcomes six young professionals from Brazil who are visiting the city under the Group Study Exchange (GSE) program of the Rotary International. This is contained in Resolution No. 11382 adopted by the City Council during its regular session yesterday presided over by Vice Mayor Caesar Ian E. Acenas upon the recommendation of Mayor Vicente Y. Emano. The resolution also declares April 8 to 16 as Rotary Group Study Exchange Week in Cagayan de Oro City. Noel M. Nalzaro, GSE Coordinator of Rotary International District 3870, Zone 1 informed the mayor that the GSE Program is aimed at fostering development and cooperation through the promotion of goodwill and better understanding among countries in the world. According to Nalzaro, the GSE team members will meet with some of their local counterparts in their respective vocations and fields of interest for opportunities of learning from each other. The purpose of the visit of the team is to learn the local norms and practices of their vocations and to experience and understand the local culture, he said.(LCR)

South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-Se told lawmakers Wednesday it is “highly likely” North Korea will test one of its new missiles “at any time.” The European Union Wednesday told North Korea it would not pull its diplomats despite North Korea’s warning that it could not guarantee their safety after April 10. During talks in London with U.S. Secretory of State John Kerry, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov sought to present a united front. “On North Korea, we have no differences with the United States. You should not scare anyone with military maneuvers. And then there’s a chance everything can calm down,” Lavrov said. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei also urged restraint. “Under present circumstances, all sides should stay calm and restrained, not provoke each other, strive to alleviate the tension, bear in mind the regional peace and stability, work towards the resumption of the six-party talks, strengthen contact and dialogue, strive for

denuclearization to achieve a long-term security and stability in Northeast Asia,” Lei said. North Korea is reported to be in the final stages of preparing for a mid-range Musudan missile test. The previously untested missile could potentially reach South Korea, Japan, or the U.S. territory of Guam. Unconfirmed reports also suggest Pyongyang is preparing to test other missiles simultaneously. Some analysts expect the test to occur sometime around the Monday birthday of Pyongyang’s founding leader, Kim Il Sung. The commander of the U.S. forces in the Pacific confirmed North Korea has moved a Musudan to its east coast in apparent preparation for a launch. Testifying Tuesday at a U.S. Senate hearing, Admiral Samuel Locklear insisted that any North Korean missile could be intercepted if it poses a direct threat to the U.S. or its allies.

Warnings to foreigners North Korea state television has been urging foreigners to leave South Korea, warning they could be caught up in an allout military conflict or a “nuclear war.” South Korea Unification Ministry spokesperson Kim Hyung-suk on Wednesday played down the threat to foreigners. “Various actions from the North are very likely to be psychological, creating anxiety. I will say that we should not be paying too much attention or feeling anxious,” Hyung-suk said. North Korea has threatened to attack the South, the United States and U.S. allies in the Asia-Pacific region in retaliation for the latest economic sanctions imposed on Pyongyang by the U.N. Security Council. Those sanctions have been aimed at punishing Pyongyang for carrying out nuclear and missile tests in defiance of Security Council resolutions.

THE aftermath of the fire that hit a commercial building in Zamboanga City. (Mindanao Examiner Ohoto - Alvin Lardizabal)

2 died as commercial building catches fire By Alvin Ladizabal, Contributor

ZAMBOANGA City––Two persons were killed in a fire that hit a commercial building in Zamboanga City in the southern Philippines. Zamboanga City Fire Marshall Dominador Zabala said the burned bodies were recovered during an inspection at ZamSulu Building along Veteran’s Avenue. “Confirmed at may dalawa tayong bankay na na-recover sa loob ng building pero hindi pa natin matiyak kung sino ang mga ito, ngunit may balitang mga helpers ang dalawang biktima,” Zabala said. The fire hit the 3rd floor of the building that houses residential units and various shops, including a bank. The building is owned by the Chua family, but none of its members spoke to the media about the fire. Zabala said they are still investigating the cause of the fire.(Mindanao Examiner.

the period of the illness. If it were respiratory, taking in plenty of fluids, eating a balanced nutritious diet and rest will go a long way. It is said that in one’s lifetime, one cannot evade the possibility of having that virus affect you: but, you and I can do something about it and come out better and healthy persons.

Cherry Orendain, Anakbayan Southern Mindanao spokesperson, said the decrease in the number of HEIs applying for tuition fee increase “does not please the youth and students,” adding that the CHED allegedly failed to control the “alarming trend” of tuition fee increases among private schools in the region. “The fact remains that education is still a business and that the CHED has perfected its role as the spokesperson of the capitalist educators,” she told MindaNews. Bai Ali Indayla, second nominee of Kabataan Partylist, earlier said that some 150,000 students from private schools were affected by tuition fee increases in the school year 2012-2013. She cited that in the last three years, tuition fee increases ranged from P3,150 to P4,200 per semester, with the average tuition paid by a student reaching P40,000 per school year. Indayla said her group gathers complaints from parents and students on school violations related to tuition fee increases through the “Kabataan Hotline” with numbers 082- 221-6589 and 0942-980-8413. She said that “redundant and exorbitant fees” have turned out as the most common complaints of parents and students. Indayla stressed that education in the country has become commercialized and expensive, making it hard to the reach of the poor. Alvarez said the issues related to hikes in tuition and other fees require consultations as mandated by Article III of CHED Memorandum Order (CMO) No. 3, Series of 2013. Based also on the order, 70 percent of the tuition fee shall go to personnel salaries and benefits, 20 percent for school upgrading or improvement, and only 10 percent for return of investment.

Standoff... from page 1

talk to the troops who launched a standoff, “in a brotherly way.” The MNLF leader said the governor of Tawi-Tawi Sadikul Sahali and “somebody from the national government” has pleaded with him to join an entourage going to Kuala Lumpur and Sabah.

“They want me to contact these young people, tapos ngunit ngayon, aywan ko (but now, I don’t know),” he said. Misuari said another way of solving the problem, is by making an appeal to his friend Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. He claims the Prime Minister is a cousin of his grand nephew, whose grandfathers are brothers. “So I intend to send him there, to talk to Najib and persuade him to desist from sending more forces [in Sabah].” He said he will also talk to Sultan Jamalul Kiram III, not to aggravate the situation. “I can mediate with them, anyway, Sabah and Sarawak belong to me, and my clan. It doesn’t belong to the Sultanate, because this is the property of my great great grandfather Panglima Pahabasal Elija,” Misuari added. Misuari flew in to Davao Saturday after attending a month-long meeting with the parliaments of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC), conferred with Vice Mayor Rodrigo Duterte in Mandaya Hotel to talk on these options. He clarified that the accusations of his involvement in the Sabah tension are “baseless and unfounded.” Duterte, for his part, assured Misuari of support if anything happens. The Vice Mayor, without elaborating, offered help “in connecting and talking it out” with the national government. Misuari said he talked to Sultan Kiram in a discreet meeting the night before he left for Davao. He told the Sultan be careful because “(the government is) preparing to arrest you.” “Sabi niya, mas gusto ko ma-arrest na ako para makapagpahinga na ako sa loob ng prison. (He said, he wanted to be arrested so he can relax in prison.)” Misuari thinks it is a big gamble on the Sultanate royal army to send their troops and mass up in Sabah. He is worried that violence might spread in Kunak, then to Kota Kinabalu in Sandakan and to other places. Misuari said he does not want any trouble with Philippine government and Malaysia. He thinks the problem is better left between the Bangsamoro people and the Malaysian people to resolve. “We should not allow other people to come in. It might only aggravate the situation,” he said. Misuari lashed at President Benigno Aquino III for saying the Sultan’s claim and actions are “a hopeless cause”. “He knows nothing about what he is talking about. He will become a laughing stock in the whole world with the way he presents himself before the eyes of the peoples of the world.” Maintaining that he has no hand in the incident, Misuari said he is in the

midst of preparing for the resumption of peace talks between the Philippine government and the MNLF this month in Jakarta. Indonesia has offered to broker the resumption of the talks. Misuari sounded firm that peace is at hand in Mindanao, “if not for the Sabah problem.” Misuari said, he will leave the next day and meet with them [MNLF troops]. “Maybe the brother might want me to report to them about my travel abroad, and possibly will also include the whole Sabah,” he said. Misuari is expected to attend the 6th Mindanao Indigenous Peoples C onvent ion/2nd ATM G enera l Ass embly /1 st Bangsamoro-Highlanders Mindanao Grand Summit this afternoon where he will be conferred as “adopted sons of Mindanao” with senatorial candidate Jack Enrile.

Slams... from page 2

the sultanate’s men. The “intention of the entire sultanate is not to be intransigent but to start the long process of talks. What the situation required is listening to the sultanate’s demands,” said Abraham Idjirani, spokesman of the sultanate of Sulu and North Borneo in an AM radio interview this week. He bewailed Aquino’s tack which then consisted of sending a delegation to Lahad Datu to make them go back to the Philippines. “If they went there only to fetch our brothers, they are committing a sin against us, their brothers in the Philippines and not just those in Malaysia. In that case, there is already a connivance between governments of Malaysia and the Philippines,” Idjirani said. The Aquino government also threatened the group that charges may be filed against them. Charges include inciting to sedition and illegal possession of firearms, according to Justice Secretary Leila de Lima. Some critics countered though that the Aquino government needs to look at the position of the Sultanate of Sulu beyond Philippine laws, considering that the said Sultanate has been in existence even before the Philippines was “discovered” and named by Ferdinand Magellan. Tolentino of Katribu said the struggle for the rights of the country’s national minorities—both the indigenous peoples and the Moro people – is not recognized by the State. The Aquino government has a tendency to dismiss the indigenous peoples’ ancestral domain, and in the case of the Sultanate of Sulu, “Aquino has dismissed the Sultan’s assertion to claim Sabah as ‘foolhardy.’ This only reveals how the Philippine state abandons the issue and leaves the

Moro people on their own to assert their rights to their ancestral territory,” Tolentino said. What is happening in Lahad Datu, Katribu says, is the result of “the State’s negligence of minority issues.” The multi-sectoral group bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) also criticized Aquino’s “absurd point that recognizing the ownership of the Sultanate over Sabah and Sulu could pave the way for its eventual secession from the Philippines.” Sultan Jamalul Kiram and his siblings had repeatedly said they consider themselves as Filipinos and they are merely asking the government to assert their and the country’s claim to Sabah. Aquino’s sham patriotism is the true spoiler to peace process Aquino’s “defeatist” attitude concerning the Philippine claim on Sabah contrasts starkly with his administration’s treatment of the Spratlys and Panatag Shoal dispute with China, said Carol Araullo, chairperson of Bayan. She pointed out that in the case of Spratlys, no less than the head of state engages in open polemics on the territorial dispute at every available opportunity, domestic or international. “It has even filed a case against China for international arbitration,” she said. While “we have strong grounds to assert our sovereignty over the Spratlys and Panatag Shoal, we have even more compelling historical and legal bases to claim Sabah,” Araullo said. Bayan regards this double standard in handling the Sabah and Spratlys/ Panatag Shoal issues as a demonstration of the Aquino government’s “deceitful and sham patriotism.” It demonstrates, they said, that Aquino’s noises with China over territorial dispute has little to do with its patriotic duty to defend the national sovereignty and territorial integrity but more about “using the Spratlys/Panatag Shoal dispute to promote US imperialism’s hegemonic schemes in the region.” The Aquino government “is using the dispute with China to justify the ever increasing presence of American troops, warships, jet fighters and drones, and other war materiel in the country’s territory under the auspices of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA),” Araullo said. About the same time the Malaysian troops started shooting at the guards of Sultan Kiram in Lahad Datu, the negotiating panels of the Aquino government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF ) were signing one of the completed annexes to the previously signed Framework Agreement. Unfortunately, the two parties reportedly said certain groups have been supposedly egging on the sultanate to act like a spoiler

to the peace process. “Aquino has subsumed the Sabah claim to political and geopolitical considerations, in particular the wish to bring an end to the Moro secessionist movement in the South through USbacked peace negotiations with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) where Malaysia has played a key role as facilitator,” Araullo of Bayan commented in a statement. She said the Aquino regime, together with the US which has taken a hands-off posture on the Sabah stand-off, apparently views the Sabah claim as a potential stumbling block, if not complete spoiler, to inking the coveted final peace compact with the MILF. But Aquino’s handling of the Sabah issue is ultimately the true peace spoiler. As Araullo said, “The Aquino administration is not only surrendering our territorial integrity and national sovereignty, it is also creating conditions that make an enduring peace with justice in Mindanao more elusive.” (http://bulatlat.com)

Tuition... from page 3

Southern Mindanao spokesperson of Anakbayan, a nationwide mass organization of Filipino youth, however pointed out that not once, in their experience, have such consultations prevented the increases in tuition fees. In fact, Orendain said, such consultations are usually “staged” to the effect that students are practically rendered powerless in the face of such exercise. Orendain said they are dismayed as CHED is supposed to be “a regulatory body to control school fees,” but the agency instead, “has become an instrument in the launching of such staged consultations for tuition hikes in campuses.” “The CHED is practically useless in terms of protecting students from high costs of education,” Orendain said. A first year student of the University of the Philippines –Mindanao for instance, pays P600 per unit, so if a student enrolls in 20 units of courses, he pays at least P16,000 pesos per semester, Orendain said. A Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education student of the University of Mindanao pays P394 per unit, so he pays P7,900 for 23 units, on top of the almost P7,000 cost of miscellaneous fees, she added. A student of Ateneo de Davao University pays P900 per unit, so 20 unit enrollment would entail a cost of P18,000 per semester, exclusive of miscellaneous fees. Orendain said they expect many students to drop out next school year. “The costs of basic goods are already increasing. How can we expect our parents to be able to send us to school with such expected round

of increases?” Orendain said their group is set to conduct massive consultations with students from colleges and universities to discuss how they can oppose the increases. “Expect massive protests from students,” Orendain warned. (Irene V. Dagudog, davaotoday.com)

his duties and responsibilities expected of a commander and to implement President Aquino’s program of reform and peace and order. Among the activities during his short stint were Fluvial Parade and Kick-off Football for Peace spearheaded by Pres. Aquino to symbolize his support for the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro. It was jointly participated in by Moro rebels and APF personnel and held at the grounds of Camp Siongco. A media fellowship was also held last December where journalists and media practitioners from Cotabato, ARMM and South Cotabato gathered to socialize with the AFP personnel as partners in peacekeeping and peace-building. Gapuz, who swore to abide by the AFP’s principles of accountability and transparency especially in logistical and financial aspects says, “I will continue the peace efforts of my predecessors especially on the on-going peace process, the peace talks and the programs and projects that will help contribute to the attainment and maintenance of peace, order and security in Mindanao.” Present in the ceremony were line agency heads, AFP, PNP and LGU officials like Maguindanao Governor Toto Mangudadatu, Congresswoman Bai Sandra Sema, Cotabato City Mayor Muslimin G. Sema, and DILG Sec. Atty. Macmod Mending who represented the ARMM Regional Governor Mujiv S. Hataman, CSOs and stakeholders.

Airport... from page 14

Clark International Airport (CIA)’s role as international gateway to Central Luzon is very important, being accessible to 23 million people from the National Capital Region and Central and Northern Luzon. Besides, Clark houses several industries such as manufacturing, logistics, services, airlines and tourism, among others. Lim said Cambodia airports have delivered Best Practice in airport management, which the Philippines can emulate. She said the airport in Cambodia is owned by the private sector. A French group Vinci owned 70 percent and a MalaysianCambodian joint venture have 30 percent stake in the airport.
