Yellow cabs to service Laguindingan airport CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - When the Laguindingan airport finally opens on June 15 there will be metered airport taxis for passengers going to Cagayan de Oro and Iligan Cities. This is according to

Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board regional director Mandangan Darimbang. Darimbang said the airport taxi system is the same as that used in Manila and Cebu where the flag down rate is P70. In contrast, the flag down

rate of regular taxis is P40, but they have the same amount for every succeeding kilometer. “The fare is regulated,” he said, adding that the system will remove abuses usually committed by drivers who are on a “boundary

Emano orders release of mid-year bonuses CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - City Mayor Vicente Emano of Cagayan de Oro City on Thursday ordered the release of mid-year bonuses including cash gifts starting end of April 2013 to the more than 3,000 city hall workers here. Emano said he issued the order to allow parents to provide for the school needs of their children just in time for the opening of

classes in June. He said that the midyear bonuses and cash gifts would be of great help in buying basic school needs,

uniforms, shoes, and payment of tuition. “I just hope that the parents would not squander the least amount at this time of hardship,” Emano added. He said all city hall employees, whether permanent or casuals, are entitled to the mid-year bonuses and cash gifts. CD

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – A top official of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) on Thursday confirmed the existence of “Narco politics” involving known political personalities in Northern Mindanao. PDEA regional director Emerson Margate said there are incumbent government officials who are now an object of PDEA’s intensive surveillance. Margate made the disclosure following the conviction a regional court here of Geodeguil Ursal, a member of the provincial board in

Misamis Oriental, to life imprisonment for violation of the anti-drug laws. “Ursal was an example of ‘narco-politics’ because in the first place Ursal was an incumbent government official while at the same time found engaged in illegal drugs,” Margate said. He said based on information gathered, Ursal already sold illegal drugs amounting to P 2 million on December 2010 prior to his arrest in a buy-bust operation on Oct. 2011. Margate said Ursal was the highest government official

arrested and convicted for violation of the anti-drug laws in Northern Mindanao. He said that the PDEA has a list of top government officials engaged in “narcopolitics” in the region. According to Margate, these officials have already established linkages in the region and are now being watched closely. “At this time, the PDEA is validating the authenticity of these reports. We would definitely move to arrest these top officials when concrete evidences surfaced,” Margate added. CD/BB

father of President Noynoy Aquino. This is opportunism in the highest level,” an antipolitical dynasty mover, who refused to be named, said.

For one, Bam Aquino was an appointee of controversial President Gloria Arroyo, as chairman of the National Youth Commission, the mover said. “How could Bam Aquino claim decency when he worked for a former administration which was allegedly virulent due to corruption and cheating issues? The Arroyo administration was even known for its oppressive stance against media and youth organizations in this country. Allegations on various poll cheatings were heaped left and right on the Arroyo government. Serving under this regime is simply spite against moral decency,” the mover continued. Bam Aquino was also criticized for consenting to the grievous dictatorial practices of the Arroyo administration that went

on, “even with the various protest rallies by the people and civil society organizations against Arroyo. Now, Bam has the gum to use the Aquino administration slogan of “matuwid na daan” in his political propaganda. Isn’t this opportunism in the highest order? the antidynasty mover said. Several anti-dynasty and activists groups also reportedly lambasted Bam Aquino as “an ambitious opportunist”, for inserting himself in the line-up of President Aquino’s Team PNoy for the May 13 elections. Serving two political nemeses (Arroyo vs Aquino) is not opportunism? he asked. Another issue against Bam Aquino is his TV political ads gimmick of using deceased Senator Benigno Aquino and former President Cory Aquino as his supposed inspiration. The said TV ad of Bam also included President Noynoy.

Staying safe in outdoor summer activities

Globe Telecom Chairman Jaime Augusto Zobel de Ayala (left) and President CEO Ernest Cu (right) share a light moment at the company’s annual stockholders meeting last April 16.

Surigaonon runners remember Boston marathon victims

SURIGAO City––Surigaonon runners gathered at the Surigao Provincial Grandstand at 5 p.m. Wednesday to express their solidarity, support and condolences to the victims of the April 15 tragedy at the Boston Marathon. Dr. Jay Remy Gonzales II, race director of the “Silangan Surigao (Half ) Marathon 2013: A Run for Surigao River” on May 5, said the Boston tragedy that left three people dead, including an eight-year old boy, and 176 others injured has not dissipated their spirits but instead “it’s an added motivation to run (because) this time it’s for the (victims) of the Boston tragedy.” “We actually planned this day as remembrance day for the victims,” the EENT (eye-ear-nose-throat) doctor said after a five-round run at the oval. The members of the Surigao Runners Club, an organization of young professionals who love running , wore the Red Tie Run shirt, the singlet used during the first fun run organized by the group, and black armbands to signify their honoring those who died and suffered because of the tragedy.’ The Boston Marathon incident also comes at a time when the group will be holding the first halfmarathon on May 5, 2013 “to raise awareness on the state of the Surigao River” in the city.

Gonzales said what happened in Boston will not likely effect participation to the marathon but instead create greater interest on the post-Earth Day celebration that the group is co-sponsoring with Silangan Mindanao Mining Corporation. “Doc Jay” as he is called among runners, added that

AS fun as summer vacations should be, safety must always be first on the list. This summertime when there is a wide variety of activities––from swimming, to trekking or hiking, and even caving––to engage in, people tend to get too excited and complacent of their surroundings. In the April 13 episode of “Pagtuki”, the official radio program of Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI), the public is reminded of the potential health and safety risks and dangers while doing outdoor activities in summer. Anthony Terence Ocampo, Deputy Director for Professional Development Programs of RAFI’s Kool Adventure Camp (KAC), identified dehydration, heat stroke, and sunburn as the most common ailments this season brings. “Most of us are not aware that we get are getting dehydrated. Even if we don’t feel like drinking water, we should still take in some. One liter in the morning and one in the afternoon will do,” Ocampo said. Heat stroke, he said, is most dangerous since it is hardly noticeable, especially to those not used to being exposed to the sun for a long period of time. Noting that many go to beaches, he advised avoiding swimming from 10-12 a.m. to prevent sunburns. He also stressed that children must be looked after when going out with a large crowd and if possible, guard the parameters where they would be bathing with a cordon. Joel Cariño, basic mountaineering instructor of Mountaineering Federation of the Philippines Inc. (MFPI) and Red Cross first-aid instructor, echoed Ocampo’s statements emphasizing on risk management. “All activities have risks. But it can be prevented through risk management and thinking of safety first,” Cariño said. When asked for things to consider when planning an outdoor activity, Cariño mentioned five points. First, to ask yourself if you can really do it. Second, to assess if you brought the right things for the trip. Asking permission from parents or guardians comes third. In line with that goes the courtesy of informing the barangay, particularly when hiking or trekking. And lastly, informing people concerned upon return. He also stressed proper outdoor get-up, which includes the right material of clothing and appropriate footwear. He also shared a few guidelines on caving as he just came from the Philippine Philological Cavings Congress, the national gathering of cavers from around the Philippines. According to him, while caves have areas for eco-tourism or public viewing, other areas are restricted to protect certain animals or organisms. Visit caves that have already been checked and cleared by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. “Safety is always of paramount importance. If one thinks that he or she cannot do the activity, better cancel. What matters more is that there is more learning while having fun,” he said. Everything boils down to right and adequate preparation and planning for a safe yet fun summer adventure. Pagtuki is aired over DyLA every Saturday at 10-11 am. The program, which is one of the Knowledge Sharing & Advocacy capabilities of RAFI, tackles timely and relevant issues on community development, politics and governance, micro-financing, education, environment, early childhood care and development, and culture and heritage that affect the Cebuano community.

security measures are already in place in time for the marathon, but have been beefed up in lieu of Monday’s incident. Triathlete Nigel Short, a 62 year-old runner who hails from New Zealand, expressed his dismay over the Boston incident as a product of a “sick mind of a sick person”

8,658 took CSC exams 300 students start working in Soccsksargen Region By Danilo E. Doguiles

KORONADAL CITY Some 8,658 individuals in Soccsksargen Region took the career service examination Sunday, according to the Civil Service Commission office here. Lawyer Venus Ondoy, CSC field officer in South Cotabato said, three examination centers were established in the entire Soccsksargen, specifically for this purpose: Kidapawan City in North Cotabato, Koronadal City in South Cotabato, and Cotabato City.

12 indicated that 1,920 took the examinations in Cotabato and 1,934 in Kidapawan City. Some 4,804 hopefuls took the examination in Koronadal City, the administrative seat of Soccsksargen Region.

Electric coop to rent gensets By Danilo E. Doguiles

KORONADAL CITY -Local power distributor, South Cotabato I Electric Cooperative (Socoteco 1) is considering rental of a modular power generator to avoid much longer rotating brownout in August. Santiago Tudio, general manager of Socoteco 1, said the cooperative’s contract with the National Power Corporation (Napocor) will end on August 31. Although the cooperative is already set to extend its contract with Napocor, the state-run power producer has already informed them that Socoteco 1’s allocation will be reduced once the contract is renewed. “This translates to at least 10 megawatt reduction in the power supply,

enough to light at least two municipalities,” Tudio said. “If we could not find an alternative source, our rotating brownout could extend to as much as 7 hours per day,” he emphasized. For this purpose, he said, Socoteco 1 management is now in talks with at least three suppliers of modular power generators that the cooperative could rent. “We still need at least 10 to 15 MW of electricity even with our Napocor contract extended,” he added. However, he said, rental of diesel-fueled gensets could mean additional 40 to 70 centavos per kilowatt hour in consumer’s electricity bill.

Tudio said, the initiative to rent a genset is a better alternative than buying a unit because power supply in SocSarGen (S outh C otabatoSarangani-General Santos) area is expected to improve in 2015 with the operation of the Alcantara-led coal-fired power project in Maasim, Sarangani. The plant, being developed by the Sarangani Energy Corporation, is intended to be a part of the long-term solution to the power shortage in the Mindanao grid. It is targeted to begin commercial operation in September in September 2015. When completed, the coal-fired power plant could supply 210 MW of electricity. (DEDoguilesPIA 12/asf )

THINK a minute. A husband and wife had not spoken to each other for days. They were still angry at one another since their last fight. By the 5th day, the husband realized he had a problem. He needed his wife to wake him up early the next day to catch a plane for an important business trip. But not wanting to talk to her and lose the fight, he put a note on the kitchen table. It read: “Please wake me up at 5AM tomorrow morning.” The next morning when the husband woke up, it was 7 o’clock! He was so angry that he had missed his plane, he was just about to yell at his wife for not waking him when he found a note next to his bed.

Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst It read: “Wake up! It’s 5 o’clock!” Why do we find it so hard to say those 2 little words, “I’m sorry”? If we’re honest, most of us are better at remembering the people who should tell us they’re sorry than we are at paying our own “sorry” debt. Yet if we would just apologize sooner we could save our friendships, family relationships, as well as a lot of time, energy, even money. A British study showed

that 37% of people who had sued doctors or hospitals in court would not have done it if their doctor had simply apologized to them. You k now, w hen it comes to taking the blame for something, most people fall into 1 of these two groups. The first group almost never thinks that they caused any of the problem. It’s always someone else’s fault and they should apologize to you. The second group often

blame themselves for causing the problem and they apologize quickly. But both extremes of always being a blame taker or a blame shifter are not healthy. The key in each situation is to be honest. Then admit that since it took both of you to cause the problem of offense or misunderstanding, it will probably take both of you to get out of it. Jesus Christ promises that if we’ll give Him total control of our heart and attitude, He will help us to start seeing and understanding ourselves honestly and responsibly, so we’ll know when and how to apologize in each situation. He’ll help you to forgive those people who wronged you, so you’ll finally be free from the heavy burden of blame. Just Think a Minute.

The hopeless election legislator

TEARY-EYED Commissioner Sixto Brillantes of the Commissions on Elections (COMELEC) plans to resign after the Supreme Court rebuffed most contested Comelec Resolutions with the High Tribunal. The latest was the Supreme Court lifting of the controversial allowable airtime for candidates. Under the Comelec Resolution 9615, Section 9, the candidates in Cris Diaz national elective positions have only 120 minutes airtime on radio and television while the local candidates would have only 180 minutes airtime. Perhaps, the Supreme Court found this resolution unfair to electorates given the limited time to know and appreciate candidates. The Supreme Court, therefore, made the right decision in scrapping that resolution whose rationality only Brillantes appreciated. Again, Section 7 of the same resolution that tackles on “prohibiting election propaganda” is another unfair resolution that the Supreme Court must look into. Under this section, it seems that all candidates are culprits. While the Comelec threatens to sue candidates perceived to have violated its provisions, the resolution did not clearly spell out possible penalties. Comelec officials would only say that they would prosecute violators in accordance with the Omnibus Election Code. The Comelec said

that they could declare a candidate disqualified or send them to jail for criminal liability. What? It seems Brillantes is making the Comelec a laughing stock. With the High Court’s rejecting the constitutionality of election laws, the electors could say that the Comelec acts like a parrot that babbles incoherently. Anyway, Brillantes said he has dreams for Comelec. Perhaps, Brillantes wants to create an image as a Commissioner who has introduced election laws of historic value. While we appreciate Brillantes efforts to establish credible election laws, he must also take into consideration the acceptability of these laws. As a brilliant election lawyer, Brillantes knows the inherent defects of the COMELEC. However, Brillantes should remember that the laws of the COMELEC are not to please an individual ambition. There is no question that Brillantes has bright ideas in improving the existing COMELEC laws. Nevertheless, Brillantes should not succumb to the pitfall of self-aggrandizement in drafting these indispensable election laws. Brillantes should remember that the election laws should be fair to both the candidates and the electors. If he thinks that it is hard for him to adjust to the minds of the people, then he should leave the COMELEC as he wished. As an election lawyer, Brillantes is an effective interpreter of the election laws. On the contrary, the Supreme Court sees Brillantes a hopeless election legislator. React crisguardian@yahoo.com

Oppressive taxation

THE list released by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) showing Kris Aquino as the country’s number one taxpayer for 2011 even beating the country’s richest men and women some of whom are even in the Forbes magazine roster of the world’s billionaires proves beyond doubt the oppressiveness of our income taxation system. How can the BIR explain Kris paying P49.9 million in income taxes while the country’s richest man, the patriarch of the Sy family who owns SM and a host of other corporations, paying only P16.6 million in income taxes with Lucio Tan, the second richest man in the country, shelling out a measly P10.8 million income taxes? This development is definitely not funny anymore. But in explaining their

A deeper view Jesse E.L. Bacon II own list, the top honcho of the BIR on nationwide television suggested that Kris might indeed have earned more than what the Forbes magazine billionaires have earned since their being in that magazine is based only on their real estate holdings and investments. This explanation does not only defy logic, it just added insult to injury. With the tax Kris paid, conservatively she must have earned more or less P400 million. If she earned

that much, it is not farfetched that the Sy patriarch must have earned more than triple what Kris had earned. Remember that the Sy family owns a diversified conglomerate from banking, real estate development, resort and casino, office and residential condominium development, among others. The family likewise owns the distinction of being the country’s shopping mall giant owning several mini and supermalls all over the country. For the un-

initiated, let me tell you that in every SM mall are SM subsidiaries doing business with SM such as SM Bonus, SM Exclusives, Watsons, Hypermarket, SM Department Stores, SM Supermarkets, to mention just a few. So, it is not farfetched that as senior executive and board member of his numerous corporations, the Sy patriarch must be earning conservatively about P1 billion in annual incomes including the returns on his investments. If this is his conservative income, then the P16.6 million income tax he paid represents about one percent only of his total earnings. This is where the problem lies. My wife, a college professor with only one dependent is being assessed at source an income tax of more or less 35 percent of taxation | page 11

Therefore, for the good of public service, it is of justifiable reason that rental should be imposed and collected in order to cover-up expenses for its repair and maintenance. Hence, this Ordinance.

MARAWI CITY – Senatorial candidate Chiz Escudero is facing a big problem in Mindanao, political pundits said yesterday, after several “Fatwa’s” (Muslim religious manifesto) were allegedly circulated criticizing Escudero as “anti-peace and anti-Muslim.” This can severely affect his candidacy, according to the report. In the said “Fatwa” Escudero was tagged as anti-peace and anti-Muslim. The same religious manifesto also criticized the other candidates for supporting and signing into law the Reproductive Health Bill.

A “Fatwā” in the Islamic faith is seriously adhered to by the Muslim faithful because these are sacred letters from their religious leaders. “Fatwa’s” are

also read not only in Muslim areas in Mindanao, but in every mosque all over the world. Several Muslim groups reportedly became angry at Escudero after his past statement on the on-going peace talks of the Aquino government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, particularly on the meeting between President Benigno Aquino and rebel chieftain Murad Ebrahim in Tokyo, Japan last August 2011, where Escudero reportedly commented that the meeting was “ill-advised.” Reports also indicated that the incident triggered a recent “fatwa” of Sheikh Jamil D. Yahya, grand imam of Marawi City who is chairman of the Bangsamoro Supreme Council of Ulama in Mindanao, assailing Escudero for his irresponsible comment. The said “Fatwa” was also endorsed by Jamio Mindanao Al Islamie or Mindanao Islamic Center, which is now circulated all over Mindanao. A recent scandal which also disheartened many Mindanaoans was his involvement with actress Heart Evangelista. The report that the actress was reprimanded by her own parents for having an affair with Escudero drew adverse reactions from Mindanaoans against Escudero. The recent hullabaloo pic-

tured Escudero as a heavy drinker and “cradle-snatcher for having a young Heart as girlfriend.” Escudero is separated from his legal wife. This started the morality issue against Escudero as critics were apprehensive of the actress good future with an older politician. It can be remembered that the parents of movie star Heart Evangelista called for a press conference where the father and mother lambasted Escudero for having illicit relations with their daughter. “Sinabi pa ng ama at ina ni Heart na sa tuwing haharap sa kanila si Escudero ay palagi itong lasing o naka-inom at hindi marunong magbigay ng respeto sa sarili nilang tahanan. Binansagan pang arogante ng mga magulang ni Heart ang pulitiko na umano’y na-brainwash na ang dalaga, the report stated. Heart’s parents reportedly asked Escudero several times to stop his relationship with their daughter, because they want a good future for her, and her involvement with Chiz would do no good since the senator is only separated from his wife and is still legally a married man. Another issue also alleged that Escudero is only using the actress for political convenience and media mileage.

Taxation...

her total monthly earnings. Since the deduction is done at source, there is no way that she could skirt payment of her income tax. If my wife is paying 35 percent income tax while the Sy patriarch is paying only about one percent, don’t you find this oppressive? Indeed this is very oppressive. This is so because our income taxation system is retrogressive instead of progressive. Under our present income taxation system, the rich pay less income tax in terms of percentage while the ordinary employees pay higher income tax in terms of percentage as shown in the case of my wife and that of the Sy patriarch. The retrogressive and oppressive nature of our country’s income taxation system is best illustrated also in the case of Kris, a mere talent in the giant radio and television network ABS-CBN, while the owners of the network where she earns millions of pesos are not even listed among the high-paying income tax taxpayers. How did this happen really escapes me. Kris paying more income taxes than what the ABS-CBN owners, the Sy family patriarch and Tan had paid is beyond explanation, hence, the need to totally overhaul our income taxation system. How? The wage earners or employees should no longer be made to pay income taxes. It should be the rich who should be assessed 35 percent income tax or even more because assessing them that much income tax will not impoverish them. The government will still not lose if it’ll stop assessing income taxes from the wage earners or employees because by doing so this particular sector will just be given more purchasing capacity, meaning, there will be more money pumped into the economy by this sector. With more money to pump into the economy, logically the economy will improve for there will be more demands for more goods from which the government can earn sales taxes or value added tax. It is just hoped that the government will realize this naked truth. And thus move for the overhaul of our income taxation system by junking the present one. The country will still not progress if the present system be made to prevail where the rich pay less income tax while the poor, the working class pay more than what the rich are paying. For true progress to reign, make the income taxation system progressive not retrogressive. --(Reactions at jelbacon@ yahoo.com or at jelbaconii@gmail.com)

City and Davao City, although according to the United States Geological Survey, a magnitude 5 to 5.9 is equivalent to intensity 6 to 7.

pushed for a "champion or champions" to represent the region in Congress. "Bangsamoro should be represented in the halls of Congress. The representative should help oversee the needs and uplift the lives of our Muslim brothers and sisters who will be covered by the new entity," said the young lawmaker. A Bangsamoro representative would also help hasten the development of the impoverished region given its economic potential as the country's top producer of fish and marine resources, Ejercito Estrada added. "We are all Filipinos and, together, should reap the benefits of development equitably and have our voices represented meaningfully as well on the political system," said the young solon. The Bangsamoro Framework Agreement was signed October last year by President Benigno Aquino III and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). The Philippine government and the MILF are still working on the details that will form the different annexes to the agreement. The framework document and the annexes will constitute the final agreement on the Bangsamoro entity.

inevitable since situations have changed and we must be relevant to the times. PCA (Philippine Coconut Authority) Administrator Euclides G. Forbes has told me that in 2004, an Oil Palm Roadmap was made and, in fact, was presented during one of your National Palm Oil Congresses. If it did not take off the ground, there must be a problem or problems. And in my term, I cannot allow that to happen again,” Sec. Alcala in his message, delivered by Asec. De Luna, said. Alcala also said that he directed PCA to prepare the roadmap for the industry and was happy to know that two weeks from now,

a Consultation-Workshop on Harmonization of Data and Statistics on the Philippine Palm Oil Industry will be held by the PCA in Davao City. “I expect that with the harmonized data, we will finally come up with a roadmap for the industry. One that is achievable within a timeframe of 10 years from 2013 to 2023,” Alcala’s message said. For his part, Dr. Pablito Pamplona, PPDCI director and secretary, said: “If we look at the situation of our country now, we are like (Manny) Pacquiao. We are down. To overcome the huge vegetable oil shortage of the country is necessary. In addition, there is the urgent need to promote high farm productivity, generate employment opportunities and help reduce the incidence of poverty with the use of Oil Palm following what the neighboring countries has done as models.” The 8th National Oil Palm Congress on April 1819, 2013, has been organized by A Brown Company, Inc., through its subsidiary A Brown Energy Resources Development Inc. (ABERDI), which plays host to this year’s event, under the leadership of Robertino Pizarro, who is both president of the Philippine Palm Oil Development Council Inc (PPDCI) and A Brown Company. Pizarro delivered the rationale of the congress with focus on this year’s theme, “Utilizing unproductive lands and promoting economic stability thru investments in the palm oil industry.” Ruffy Magbanua, manager, community relations a nd development of A Brown Copany, said this is the first time that a Palm Oil Congress gathered this big number of delagates, and considered it as a successful gathering of local and foreign key players in the oil palm industry. “Top industry keyplayers in attendance aside from Pizarro were Erwin Garcia, PPDCI vice president, Reynaldo Espanola, PPDCI director, Dr. Pablito Pamplona, director and secretary of PPDCI, among others. Cagayan de Oro City Mayor Vicente Emano, graced the opening program. He also inducted into office the board of directors of PPDCI. The Palm Oil Congress is co-sponsored by the Local Government of Cagayan de Oro, ABERDI, API Group of Companies, KIDI, FPPI, Land Bank of the Philippines (LBP), Department of Agriculture (DA) and other major industry players, with the support of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Regional Board of Investments (RBOI), Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), PCA–PODO, Department of Tourism (DOT), (Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR)
