GENERAL SANTOS CITY (MindaNews/) -- Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA) chair Secretary Luwalhati Antonino has questioned due to supposed lack of consultations the signing last month of a build-operate-transfer (BOT) deal for a 20.9-megawatt (MW) bunker-fired power plant in this city.

Antonino said she is personally opposing the agreement signed by proponents A Brown Co. Inc. (ABCI) and distribution utility South otabato II Electric Cooperative (Socoteco II) as it allegedly failed to follow the required procedures and processes, specifically the public hearings.

“Hindi porke may authority kayo sa board pipirma na kayo ng kontrata (It does not mean that when you obtained the board’s authority, you can already sign the contract),” she said in an interview aired Friday orning over ABSCBN General Santos.

Antonino was referring to the Socoteco II board of directors’ president Elenito Senit and general manager Rodolfo Ocat, who represented the electric coop-

erative in the supply and transfer deal with ABCI. Under the agreement, ABCI’s wholly owned subsidiary Peak Power Energy Inc. will build, operate, maintain and transfer a 20.9MW bunker-fired power plant in the franchise area of Socoteco II over an undisclosed period.

Roel Castro, Peak Power president, said in a statement that the “decision to build power generation facilities is our way of contributing a solution to the power problem in Mindanao.”

Senit said the agreement will help cover for the power deficit within its franchise area as a result of the reduced power allocation from he National Power Corporation (NPC).

Socoteco II is presently implementing daily rotating brownouts lasting seven hours for each of its two feeder grouping or a total of 14 hours due to the power shortage.

The rotating brownouts outages were mainly blamed on the severe load cuts imposed by the National Grid Corporation of the power | page 10

Experts to produce strategic transport plan for Davao City DAVAO City (MindaNews/) – The city will have a sustainable, strategic public transport plan to be produced by a team of international consultants at the end of a 9-month study that started last month, an official said Thursday.

Roberto Alabado III, chief of the City Planning and Development Office said the study is a grant from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) that committed $1 million for the project.

The ADB hired in-

ternational consultants from Halcrow, a consultancy firm based in the United Kingdom, "to investigate issues and problems to help enhance the public transport system here," Alabado said.

The Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) has announced that its memorial planholders may request to convert their plans to cash not lower than the contract price until August 31, 2013.

Dubbed GSIS En-

hanced Optional Exit Mechanism (EOEM), the program allows planholders to refund their cash payments depending on the type of their memorial plan.

The GSIS said EOEM is being implemented to protect the planholders from

memorial servicing problems that may arise in the future, adding that the cash refund will enable the planholders to pay for their other expenses.

Holders of the GSIS Genesis Flexi Plan may refund 150 percent of

Sun Cellular postpaid revenues increase by 15% on higher ARPU Sun Cellular’s Postpaid segment registered a 15% growth on the back of increasing average revenue per user (ARPU), and the strong take up of its mid-level plans. By end 2012, Sun Postpaid revenues climbed up to almost PhP8 billion.

“It is not just our entry-level plans that are getting the attention of the market. Since last year, our industry-leading mid-level plans that we introduced through our ‘Sundroid Rush campaign’ have fueled our revenue increase,” said Orlando Vea, Chief Executive Officer of Sun Cellular.

In October last year, Sun Cellular brought another first to the market by offering postpaid bundles that feature a smartphone handset paired with a tablet for as low as P600.00 a month. Dubbed as the “Sundroid Rush”, Vea said that this campaign signaled a turning point in the company’s efforts to attract subscribers to Sun’s higher plans and thus making this a significant driver in increasing ARPUs. These plans also became platforms for increasing mobile internet usage which further boosted revenues.

Sun Cellular increased its postpaid subscribers by 16% to 1.6 million subscribers in 2012. “Being the first in the market to have reached INCREASE | page 10

THINK a minute.

This is a true story about a man named Paul whose brother gave him an early Christmas present. It was a brand new car!

A few days later, Paul was leaving work to go home on Christmas Eve. A boy named David was standing

by Paul’s shiny new car. He said: “Sir, is this your car?”

Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” David looked surprised. He said: “You mean your brother gave it to you so it did not cost you anything? Wow! I wish…”

But the boy stopped, and didn’t finish his sentence.

Paul knew David was going to say he wished he had a brother like that. But he was so surprised when

EVERYONE has always at least one person to consider a best friend. I for one have friends whom I consider real friends. I say they are real because they become part of who I am today as a person, a man of God. The Bible states this, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business.

Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you” (John 15:13-15).

The Lord Jesus Christ gave us the definition of a true friend: Jesus is the pure example of a true friend, for He laid down His life for His “friends.”

in a new car. David asked Paul to stop in front of a certain house. The boy jumped out of the car and ran into the house.

A few minutes later, Paul saw David coming back out carrying his crippled, little brother. He carefully sat his brother down on the steps in front. Sitting down next to his brother, David pointed to Paul’s new car.

He said to his brother:

“See that car, Buddy! This man’s brother gave it to him for Christmas. And someday, I’m going to give you one just like it. Then you can ride in it and see for yourself all the nice Christmas things in the stores that I’ve been telling you about.”

Paul got out and lifted the crippled, little brother on to the front seat of his new car. David climbed in beside his brother, and the three of them went on a very special and unforgettable Christmas ride.

That Christmas eve, Paul finally understood what Jesus Christ meant when He said: “You’ll be much happier and more blessed when you give than receive.”

Just Think a Minute.

regarding friends. “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity” (Proverbs 17:17).”

A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

The truth that comes from all of this is a friendship is a relationship that is entered into by individuals, and it is only as good or as close as those individuals choose to make it.

Someone has said that if you can count your true friends on the fingers of

one hand, you are blessed.

A friend is one whom you can be yourself with and never fear that he or she will judge you.

A friend is someone that you can confide in with complete trust.

A friend is someone you respect and that respects you, not based upon worthiness but based upon a likeness of mind.

Paul defines true friendship this way: “For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:7-8).

“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends” (John 15:13). Now, that is true friendship!

Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst the boy said: “I wish I could BE a brother like that!”

Paul then asked David if he would like to ride in his car. “Oh, Yes!” he answered.

“I’d love to!” Paul and his new friend had been riding a while when David said: “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?”

Paul smiled, thinking David wanted to show his friends that he was riding

Friendship defined The New Generation

Alex A. Podador What is more, anyone may become His friend by trusting in Him as his personal savior, being born again and receiving new life in Him. David and Saul’s son, Jonathan is an example of true friendship who, in spite of his father Saul’s pursuit of David and attempts to kill him, stood by his friend.

You will find that story in 1 Samuel chapter 18 through chapter 20.

Proverbs is another good source of wisdom

Constitutional crisis in Pagadian airport take -over LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets…” (Jesus Christ, our God and Savior, in Matthew 7:12, the Holy Bible).

-oooCONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS IN TAKE-OVER OF PAGADIAN AIRPORT: There is more than what meets the eye in the ongoing take-over and barricade of the runway of the Pagadian City Airport in Zamboanga Del Sur in Mindanao, which has already resulted in the paralization of the airport’s operations for the last two or three days.

What seems to be the bigger issue here is another refusal of other agencies of the Aquino government, particularly the Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) and

Kakampi mo ang batas Atty. Batas Mauricio other allied offices, to obey a Supreme Court decision directing them to pay the value of the runway to the family that owns the land where the airport was built.

If DOTC Secretary Joseph Emilio Abaya will not act immediately, not only will the operations of the airport be derailed further.

A Constitutional crisis may even erupt any moment, precipitated by yet another clash between the executive and judicial branches of government in view of the refusal of the executive branch to obey a direct order

of the judicial branch.

-oooHOW TAKE-OVER OF AIRPORT CAME ABOUT: Here is a brief account of how this problem came about: on August 22, 2006, in Civil Case No. 4382, the Regional Trial Court of Pagadian City, Branch 18, issued its Decision recognizing the ownership of the airport’s runway by the Taug-Boto family, and directing the government to pay the family some P8 million, more or less, as purchase price for the land where the runway is located.

On November 24, 2010, the Court of Appeals affirmed the decision of the Regional Trial Court of Pagadian City, with an added directive for the RTC to hold further hearings and determine the real value of the land in question.

On February 3, 2011, the Republic of the Philippines filed with the Supreme Court a petition for review on certiorari, praying to reconsider and set aside the Decision rendered by the Court of Appeals dated November 24, 2010, and to dismiss the complaint in Civil Case No. 4382-2K2, for lack of merit. On June 22, 2011, the Supreme Court denied the Republic’s motion for reconsideration with finality.

The joys and pains of being a mobile teacher

By Gerum O. Salatan

Rain or shine, a ride or a hike and many more, these are but among the routines of an Alternative Learning System (ALS) implementer. As a mobile teacher, I spend my days going everywhere; spreading the seeds of knowledge to our beloved folks, who thirst for learning and whose desire to go to school remains only a dream. And looking at them learn, satisfies my soul amidst the seemingly tiresome nature of my job.

As an educator, I work as a teacher not in a fourcornered classroom, but anywhere – under a strong and sturdy tree, in a waiting shed or in a community learning center offered by villages to cater the need of education for the out-ofschool indigenous people, children, youth and adults.

Going through muddy if not rocky roads in a more or less 20 km sitio from my station seems to be a habit.

To encounter minor accidents and risks are seemed to be just normal routines of my job. I go everywhere bringing education to where the learners are; to whatever or whoever the learners will be.

Moreover, looking at them jump for joy for successfully passing the Accreditation and Equivalency

Test (A&E) crowns my heart with overflowing gladness.

And as they wear their white togas for graduation, a triumphant battle is estimably won. The dreamed education is finally realized.

My job reaches more than my profession. What makes it gratifying is that in an instant I become a counselor for a learner having a problem with his family; a doctor and sometimes an herbalist for a learner with health problems; or a guest judge in amateur singing

contests and many exciting things. On the other hand, seeing my learner as he starts reading words for the first time is very fulfilling. Like an empty sheet, he already has marked another meaning to his existence.

My present job is very instrumental in strengthening my advocacy towards preserving and uplifting indigenous people’s culture (particularly the Higaunun tribe, from which I am a member) through education. Imparting to them

the importance of education means empowering all tribesmen to be active members in the community and eventually erase gaps like discrimination, marginalization, displacement, and other forms of inequity.

However, not all the times I wear my smiles.

There were also moments that I used to bow the knee from sorrow and distress.

Sometimes, we’re being looked down by some of our fellow teachers from the

formal school. “ALS lang ‘yan, walang competency.”

Probably, these people do not know what the Alternative Learning System is.

They just perhaps don’t know that like a coin, it is the other face of acquiring basic education. Section 12.1 Rules of R.A 9155 otherwise known as The Governance of Basic Education Act of 2001 stipulates that the Alternative Learning System is a parallel learning system to provide a viable alternative to the

existing formal education instruction encompassing both formal and informal sources of knowledge and skills. They might not know that our graduates are also given diplomas; that they, too, avail the same benefits like that of those from the formal school.

On the other hand, frustration comes in those times that I woke up so early excited to go to the field and there, two or three learners are present; very teacher | page 8

University identifies ‘environment’ as main problem, ‘basic services’ as need of Kagay-anons

By Mark Anthony Dedoyco and Marie-Zil Malinao

CAGAYAN de Oro City–– Xavier University–Ateneo de Cagayan through its Kinaadman Research Center identified the ‘environment’ sector as primary concern and ‘basic services’ as prime need of the residents here based on their “Barangaylevel Community Problems and Needs Identification” with an accompanying 2013 poll survey conducted just recently.

It appeared in the research that the environment ranked first in the problem identification and basic services as prime need of the community. The former includes solid waste management, waste water management, river-related problems and sea cleanliness while the latter involves infrastructures, housing, education, government support and so on.

Dr. Astrid Lara Sinco of Kinaadman specified that out of the survey and analyDEED OF SALE OF REGISTERED LAND UNDER PACTO DE RETRO Notice is hereby given that the intestate estate of RAMON E. DUGENIO, of legal age, Filipino, married, with residence and postal address at 5 Yacapin St., Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines, representing CONSTANCIA JACOT ELAGO VDA.

DE DUGENIO, his mother, (widow of the late Atty. Fausto Dugenio) in favor of Ramon K. Dugenio dated March 24, 1984 at Cagayan de Oro City, who (CONSTANCIA JACOT ELAGO VDA. DE DUGENIO) inherited them from her parents the late spouses, Feliciana Jacot and Leopoldo Elago and acquired the shares also through purchases from her brothers and sisters as well as from her nephews and nieces, in the abscense of and/ or death of her immediate brothers and/or sisters as evidenced, VENDOR is the absolute owner of a certain parcel of land, and more particularly enumerated as follows to wit; Lot No. 3925, Area: 5.9171, Location; Cogon, Mainit, Catarman; Lot No. 3926, Area: 1621, Location: Centro, Catarman; Lot No. 3927, Area: 0505, Location: Centro Catarman; Lot No. 3928, Area: .1583, 300, Location: Centro Catarman; Lot No. 3929, Area: 340, Location: Looc, Catibac, Cat; Lot No. 4962, Area: .2552, Location: Poblacion, Catarman; Lot No. 4963, Area: 906, Location: Poblacion, Catarman Res.; Lot No. 4964, Area: 1,2096, Location: Bonbon, Catarman; Lot No. 4965, Area: .4345, Location: Compol, Catarman; Lot No. 4966, Area: .5889, Location: Timbaan, Catarman; Lot No. 4967, Area: .5889, Location: Timbaan, Catarman Alga; Lot No. 4968, Area: .0884, Location: Panghiawan, Catarman; Lot No. 12246, Area: 0649, 1000, Location: Puti, Centro, Cat.; Lot No. 12572, Area: 1.1901, Location: Bonbon, Catarman; is the subject of DEED OF SALE OF REGISTERED LAND UNDER PACTO DE RETRO, made an executed by and between RAMON E.

sis of the data, the results showed that the problems to be addressed by the upcoming public officials and political parties are the following: environment with the highest problem identified by the respondents, basic services, peace and order, health, and lastly economics.

The XU research agenda further presented the different sectors wherein there are urgent problems including peace or law and order particularly theft/robbery, illegal drugs and solvent, prostitution, police visibility/barangay tanod presence and group conflict.

Health is also an issue specifically in Philhealth membership, sanitation (road/drainage) and toilets.

City local governance came out in terms of traffic in the city/road management, legislation/implementation, city corruption and public market.

Food security was also identified wherein there is a problem with employment and adequate food on the table.

The research was conducted in the two districts of Cagayan de Oro—District 1 and District 2 wherein a sample size of 600 voters was calculated, each district having 300 respondents.

During the presentation, it reflected that most barangays here have problems with drainage/canals, theft/ robbery, road maintenance, cleanliness of roads and canals, city traffic management and illegal drugs/ solvent.

According to Dr. Hilly Ann Quiaoit of the Research and Social Outreach (RSO) of the university, they conducted this research because of the goal of the university to have stronger formation, greater societal engagement, and help for a better administration.

Through this, they need to identify the needs and to provide information that would aid for the formulation of platforms of the candidates for election.

Such research aims to generate public opinion of the Cagayan de

Survey results. Xavier University Kinaadman Research Center (KRC) spokespersons and researchers Dr. Edvilla R. Talaroc (from left), Dr. Astrid Lara Sinco, and Dr. Hilly Ann Quiaoit talked about their findings in their recently held survey on “Community Problem and Needs Identification in Cagayan de Oro City” during a press conference on April 3.

Teacher...

are seemed an amaranthine quagmire but to me they are nothing. Even my learners learned to fight them. Mrs. Josefina S. Pimentel, 72 (Bae Mapangal), a tribal representative, affirmed to herself how important education is that she even enlisted herself as one of the learners. According to her, enrolling in the ALS means inspiring fellow tribesmen to give importance to education as a lifelong necessity.

Being an ALS implementer, I learned to value networking. My day-to-day thrilling escapade is coupled with inspiration from those individuals, groups and organizations who believe in the ALS. I could not achieve the program objectives without them.

I could still recall I have been an innocent dreamer, who looks for ways, takes

every chance and grabs every opportunity that comes across my way. I never stop dreaming! I believe in my dreams simply because I know God would take me to a place where my dreams become reality. And here I am now, a proud mobile teacher throwing his starfish back to the ocean sharing stories of inspiration, inviting others to start their step towards making their ambitions real.

For now, I am very positive that one day, those communities that I am working with will realize how important education is —that it’s more than hundred pesos a day. Despite the gripping adventure of my job as a mobile teacher, I just hope and pray that the day will come, where no one is left behind and that education is served to all.

10 Power... from page 1

Philippines (NGCP) as a result of the declining generation capacity of the NPC’s hydroelectric plants in Bukidnon and Lanao del Norte.

The electric cooperative, which has a daily average peak power demand of 112 MW, serves this city, the entire Sarangani Province and the municipalities of Tupi and Polomolok in South Cotabato.

In the last two weeks, the area’s power deficit reached as high as 41 MW due to the unstable power allocation from the NPC. Aboitiz-owned Therma Marine Inc. (TMI) augments the area’s power supplies by 30 MW based on a power sales agreement that it earlier signed with the electric cooperative.

Socoteco II forged the sales deal with TMI in 2011 after the NPC slashed the area’s power allocation to the area by 30 percent or from 104 MW to 72 MW in 2012.

This year, NPC imposed another 30 percent cut to the area’s power supplies or specifically from 72 MW to 52 MW. Ocat said they remained open to leasing diesel-fired modular generator sets to help ease the brownouts in the area as proposed earlier by the Department of Energy but stressed that they consider the ABCI deal as its best option at the moment.

Such position was based on the analysis made by the Socoteco II board.

“We don’t want an option where we will be involved in the operations of a power resource or get into a partnership agreement,” he said, referring to the leasing of modular generator sets.

During the regional power forum here last week, Energy Secretary Carlos Jericho Petilla presented the leasing or purchase of modular generator sets as immediate alternative option for local electric cooperatives.

He said DoE will assist the cooperatives in facilitating the purchase of the generator sets through a loan scheme that will be administered by the National Electrification Administration.

But Antonino, who has been pushing for the deployment of the modular generator sets in the area, said she will investigate the deal signed by Socoteco II and ABCI. “I will personally lead the opposition to this deal.

If we need to stage a protest rally for this, I will be at the frontline,” she said.

City Mayor Darlene Antonino-Custodio expressed support to the MinDA chair’s initiative saying the local government was not consulted by Socoteco II before it signed the agreement with ABCI. “The city government

and the chamber (General Santos City Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc.) had been asking Socoteco II to consult us first before making these moves and their power projections,” she said.

The city government previously opposed the signing of the power sales deal between Socoteco II and Alcantara-led Conal Holdings Corporation for the streaming of 70 MW of embedded power to the cooperative starting late 2015.

Under the agreement, which was approved last year by the Energy Regulatory Commission, Conal’s subsidiary Sarangani Energy Corporation will draw the agreed power supplies from its 400-MW coal-fired power plant that is being constructed in Barangay Kamanga, Maasim town in Sarangani Province.

dehydrated,” she said.

Most f the victims are children between a month and 10 years old.

At the CRMC, 22 of the 28 confined victims are children.

Dr. Shariff Manibpel, a physician at the CRMC, said he saw symptoms of cholera among the patients. “It could be cholera because some already had 10 episodes of watery bowel movement but we still have to confirm through tool examinations and stool culture in the laboratory,” he added.

Residents of Barangay Tuka Maror in Bongo Island in the municipality of Parang believe the water source from their “balon” (deep well) could be the source of disease.

Barangay chairman Tamano Aragasin said that after the long sunny days of ummer, a rain came on Sunday night. The next day, disaster came, with most of the victims reported to have drunk water from the well, he noted.

Aragasin urged local politicians who are courting the votes of Tuka Maror residents to put up a safe and convenient water system in their community.

Parang Mayor Ibrahim Ibay and Integrated Provincial Health Officer Tahir Sulaik were quoted over radio as saying that the number of victims could be more since some of the victims have not been evacuated yet due to strong waves and lack of pump boats. Bongo Island is situated almost 19 kms northwest of Cotabato City.

The Depar tment of Health in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (DOH-ARMM) has already dispatched an investigation and response team.

Dr. Kadil Sinolinding, DOH-ARMM secretary, said they will get water samples from the deep well to determine the cause of the outbreak. (Ferdinandh Cabrera / MindaNews)

are areas that have been experiencing occasional rains these past weeks.

But this city and parts of nearby Sarangani and South Cotabato provinces have been experiencing severe dry weather since early March, with field temperatures reaching as high as 36 degrees Celsius.

The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical S er vices Administration station here earlier said the rising temperature was mainly due to the onset of the summer season, which was expected to intensify until next month.

Boloron said they expect drier conditions by next month but noted that they have already prepared some interventions to counter its impact on farm crops in the area.

“When that happens, local government units may request for the conduct of cloud seeding operations,” he said.

In early 2010, DA central office stationed personnel from the Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM) in the region to coordinate the conduct of cloud seeding operations in areas that were hit then by a mild dry spell or El Nino Phenomenon.

Cloud seeding is the process of manually spreading either dry ice or salt into the upper part of the clouds to help stimulate the precipitation process and form rain.

The operations are conducted by BSWM personnel through aircrafts commissioned by the agency.

Reynaldo Legaste, South Cotabato provincial agriculturist, said they are prepared to launch cloudseeding operations in case the area’s weather condition will worsen in the coming weeks.

But he said their evaluation showed that there’s no need yet to conduct cloudseeding as the dry spell has not yet affected most of the standing crops in the area due to substantial irrigation supplies.

Legaste said the prevailing dry period has been beneficial to local fruit producers since it falls on the flowering stage of the fruit trees, especially of mangoes.

Legaste said they are hoping that the area will go without any rain for another week to complete the critical 35-day flowering stage of mangoes.

He said the Provincial Environment Management Office is currently assisting them in monitoring the impact and intensity of the dry spell using the planted bamboos in the area as indicator. He said they agreed to launch the cloud-seeding activities if 10 percent of the standing bamboos in the province are already affected. (Allen V. Estabillo / MindaNews)

“It is not just a study but a project because they will submit a transportation plan that is strategic and will show issues and priorities of Davao City,” he told reporters.

He said the project is in partnership with the Department of Transportation and Communications, and will identify short-tomedium-term projects to be done in three to six years.

The city was chosen as a model for a public transport system in anticipation of bigger transportation needs owing to growing population and traffic generators such as shopping malls, Alabado said.

He cited that the city government's counterpart to the project include providing venues for meetings of consultants and technical persons to assist in their studies.

Asked if there’s a plan to build a light railway system here, the planning official said it was not yet part of the project. (Lorie Ann Cascaro/MindaNews)

Sun Cellular’s Senior Vice President for Postpaid, Broadband, and New Business Marketing Ricky Pena explained that the ‘Sundroid Rush’, while originally intended as a promo, has become one of the categories in Sun’s postpaid line-up.

Following the success of the Plan 600 Alcatel bundle, Sun introduced just last month its Sundroid Plan 999 – Samsung bundle edition, and very recently, a Plan 450 variant that carries the MyPhone bundle edition.

“We continue to build our brand equity by addressing new market segments, hence the launch of the most affordable Sundroid Tablet+Smartphone offer for as low as P450 a month.

We also recently introduced our Phablet series -- a device that’s bigger than a regular phone yet smaller than a regular tablet. These 5-inch Phablet devices are available for as low as Plan 450 all the way up to our Plan 1699.”

Pe n a s a i d t h a t t o strengthen the entry level segment, Sun has assembled a very strong Plan 350 Android phone line up headlined by the new 3.5 inch screen Alcatel Glory 2 that carries the most updated Android software Jellybean, and the very popular Cherry Flare 4.0inch screen. To further strengthen the line up at Sun Plan 350, Sun introduced its first Qwerty Touch Android phone from Samsung with the Samsung Galaxy Ch@t free at Sun Plan 350.

“We continue to work with our partners to bring the best choice of devices for our customers, and pairing these with the best-value service inclusions that Sun is so known for. As the telco landscape continues to shift with the continuous explosion of smartphones, expect Sun Cellular to be at the forefront in defining the best postpaid offers for the changing times,” Pena concluded.

Sun Cellular is a member of the PLDT Group.

BY GOV’T INACTION: On June 11, 2012, the Regional Trial Court issued its order also dated June 11, 2012, directing the Department of Transportation and Communications to pay the Taug-Boto family the sum of P5,000,000.00.

The Court also ordered the DOTC to deposit the amount with the Clerk of Court. Both these orders were not complied with.

On December 12, 2012, a writ of execution was issued by the Regional Trial Court to compel the payment of the sum of P5,000,000.00 to the Taug-Boto family.

At this point, however, the DOTC and allied agencies are continuing to refuse to comply with the orders of the Court, saying that the Taug-Boto family needed to get a “clearance” from the Commission on Audit first.

After a series of negotiations with officials of DOTC, the City Government of Pagadian, the Aviation Security Command of the Philippine National Police and other government agencies, the Taug-Boto famiy was still unable to receive any payment. This was the reason why they decided to finally take-over and barricade the runway.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 21) - You need to shake up your perspective today -- and that could mean that it’s time to start asking big questions of those around you. It’s time for a new point of view, even if it’s similar to your own.

CANCER (June 22 – July 22) - You need to do some mental yoga to make it through today -- but you can manage! It’s a really good time for you to learn some new tricks and see if you can surprise friends or co-workers.

LEO (July 23 – August 22) - Take a deep breath and wait this phase out -- you need to make sure that you’re not showing how impatient you feel. That just causes stress that slows things down even further on a day like today!

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22) - Keep your messages positive today -- make sure that people really understand that you are on their side (well, as long as you actually are). Criticism can come later.

LIBRA (September 23 – October 22) - You need to be more understanding -- and yes, that is actually possible! Fortunately, your great spiritual and social energies are in sync, so you shouldn’t have a hard time reading people.

“We Grow Minds”

Peaceful polls prevail in N. Mindanao -- PNP

By CHENG ORDONEZ, NewsCon Director

THE Philippine National Police (PNP) in Northern Mindanao has reported “no election-related incidents” in the region, during the weekly News Conference (NewsCon), held Friday, April 5, 2013, at the BusinessWeek Mindanao Media Center, saying peace prevails despite the inclusion of three areas in the region as “hotspots” and where confiscation of loose firearms occurred.

PSupt.Ronnie Francis Cariaga, chief, Regional Public Information Office, Police Regional Office 10 told media practitioners at the NewsCon that the provinces of Misamis Occidental, Misamis Oriental and Bukidnon have been identified as “areas of concern” either under the category of “Areas of Immediate Concern” or “Areas of Concern.”

He identified factors for an area to be placed under the Area of Immediate Concern or Area of Concern categories, as follows: Presence of armed groups; proliferation of loose firearms; intense political rivalry; and prevalence of criminalities, among others.

At least, 142 loose firearms were seized by the police for the

period covering January 13 to March 2 in the areas of Bukidnon – 8, Lanao del Norte – 68, Misamis Occidental – 12, Misamis Oriental – 30, Iligan – 6 and Cagayan de Oro 18.

PSupt. Cariaga was the main guest at the 3rd NewsCon, which tackled heroism and freedom in celebration of “Araw ng Kagitingan” and also on peace

He admitted during the NewsCon that there is a lack of issued service firearms to policemen in the region, but said that some of the police officers who haven’t receive their issued firearms yet are taking the initiative to cope with the situa-

tion.

PSupt.

Cariaga also reported during the NewsCon that for the period covering January 1 to March 31, 2013, crime incidents for both Index Crimes and Non-Index Crimes were recorded at 598. The figure, however, is lower

compared to the same period last year, which was recorded at 650.

Almost 900 places in the country have been identified as election hotspots. Topping the list are Ilocos region with 106 hot spots; Eastern Visayas with 88 and the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao with 83.

The weekly NewsCon being held at the BWM Media Center is sponsored by the Veterans Bank, the Department of Tourism Regional Office 10, Del Monte Foods, the Sudaria Group of Publications, namely, BusinessDaily, Mindanao Daily News, Mindanao Star Daily, BusinessWeek Mindanao, Cagayan Times, BusinessWeek Magazine, Philippine Information Agency 10, Magnum Radyo 99.9 FM, and Radyo ng Bayan.
