DepEd LIS, information for greater access to education Since 2011, the Department of Education initiated the Learners’ Information System (LIS), an online facility that provides for the registration of learners enrolled in public schools. Since its installation, the LIS has allowed the Department to generate the total public school enrolment based on the actual registration of learners. The LIS is an innovative tool that the Department uses to manage information with the aim of promoting transparency, informed decision making, and empowerment at different levels See access, page 7

GINGOOG City - Coconut is a tree of life. Philippine Coconut Authority (PCA) gives life to both our coco trees and farmers as it grants P10 million assistance. Thus said Gingoog mayor Marie de Lara Guingona as her administration joins the 28th National Coconut Week Celebration of PCA which is under the Office of the Presidential Assistant for Food Security and Ag-

ricultural Modernization, and gratefully acknowledges such agency for releasing a grant assistance worth P10 million to the members of Gingoog Federation of Agricultural Multi-purpose Cooperative (GinFAMCO). The city mayor has been incessantly coordinating with PCA-Gingoog Field Office workers led by Donato Jomen for the increase of coco production which translates to farmers’ See coco, page 7

Katawhan uyon sa gidusong sugyot ‘No Helmet Ordinance’

Cagayan de Oro City Positibo ang reaksyon sa katawhan sa gipasaka nga sugyot ordinansa ni konsehal Candy Darimbang kalabot sa pagdili sa paggamit og full mask ug tinted nga mga helmets sulod sa sentro sa syudad. Ang maong mga helmet angayan lamang sa highway suoton diin kusog ang pagpadagan sa mga motorista ug maghatag sa peligro sa ilang kinabuhi apan ang sulod sa syudad limitado lamang ang dagan sa mga sakyanan ug layo sa kakuy-

aw, pasabot ni Darimbang. Mahinumduman nga ubay-ubay na ang mga krimen sama sa pagpanulis ug pagpatay dinhi sa syudad nga wala masulbad sa kapolisan tungod kay ang mga gisuspetsahang kriminal nagsul-ob og helmet ug maglisod pag-ila ang kapolisan. Maglisod usab paglakag ang kapolisan sa mga kriminal tungod kay halos magkaparehas ang brand sa mga helmet ug motorsiklo nga gigamit sa paghimo sa krimen. (APD)

Paghiusa batok druga giawhag CAGAYAN de Oro City - Si bise mayor Caesar Ian Acenas hugot nga nanawagan sa tanan nga maghiusa aron mapalapdan ang kampanya kontra sa illegal nga mga druga.

Ang atong kabataan anaa sa peligro nga mahimong magumon sa gidiling

druga o kaha gamiton nga tigpayuhot sa maong mga gidiling druga. Ato silang protektahan pinaagi sa paggukod sa mga tigpayuhot sa gidiling druga aron maglisod sila sa ilang operasyon dinhi sa syudad, pamahayag ni Acenas. Matod niya nga kinahanglang palig-onon pa sa PDEA ug uban pang ahensya sa gobyerno ang operasyon dinha sa pagpakgang sa pagkaylap sa maong gidiling druga. Niini, gikinahanglan usab ang kooperasyon sa katawhan sa syudad aron See druga, page 7

AG AYA N d e O ro City - The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Region 10 turned over the first communitymanaged potable water supply sanitation and hygiene (CPWASH) project in barangay Maliwanag of Maliwanag, Cabasagan, Tinubalan and Mananao agrarian reform community (MACATIN-AO ARC) in Baroy, Lanao del Norte. The facilities included two iron removal filters (IRF), one biogas digester, two rain water collectors with one IRF inside and four bio-sand filters were turned over to the

Maliwanag Multi-Purpose Cooperative. The total project cost amounted to P160, 000 which covers the construction of water and sanitation facilities as well as trainings for selected members and para-engineers. About 210 households in the barangay benefited from this project, of which 132 households are agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs). During the turnover ceremony, Baroy municipal mayor Rosa Olaffson expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the DAR for choosing barangay Mali-

wanag as the pilot site of the project. Chief Agrarian Reform Program Officer (CARPO) for Provincial Program Beneficiaries Development Division (PBDD) Alex Lomondot urged the members to properly maintain the facilities so it will continue to provide them with safe and clean drinking water. He said this could be the beginning of more projects to come. CPWASH was conceptualized by the DAR to install low-cost water supply technology and sanitation systems that primarily address the requirements of safe, clean

and potable water for the ARBs and non-ARBs in the agrarian reform communities. (Florence A. Ramos/ERS)

A TEACHER’S TRIUMPH By GEMMA S. CABANACAN Teacher III Bulua Central School

It is amazing to know that teachers are the most fully loaded in terms of responsibilities and concerns. A truckload of responsibility is given to a teacher once she enters the door of her classroom. From a mere ordinary person, a teacher could transform into a lot of personalities. She could be an artist, a clown, an adviser, a friend, a mother and even a nanny at times. But teachers are basically humans, endowed with emotions and weaknesses. When I was young and a bit foolish, I did have a different thinking with regards to teachers. For me then, teachers were someone related to super heroes, that they were untouchables. They were high and mighty, somehow they

did have a some kind of a magic power that they could just give commands, and all the children under their care would immediately without question follow it. Teachers then for me were one of the luckiest creatures on earth. My perception of a teacher changes when I become one. I have realized teachers are not indeed high and mighty. Teachers are the simplest persons in the world, whose joy is seeing their children learn. The ultimate joy and fulfillment of a teacher is seeing the children under their care learn progress and develop. Every time I can see and hear a child reads a word with correct pronunciation and can construct simple sentences, I felt I’m

at the seventh heaven, an unexplainable feeling is felt. Simple changes are enough for a teacher to be overwhelmed. I am a teacher and I am proud to be one. I am a bearer of light and hope. In my hand lies a great responsibility. So great that at times, it weakens my passion and commitment to teach. I admit there were times I got tired because of a lot of concerns, but then I got to recharge and revive the passion and commitment for the sake of all the children under my care. I cannot afford to just sit around the corner and do nothing. I have an important role to play; and that is to teach with too much passion and keep the fire burning at all times.

Sa restaurant ng nasabing hotel kung saan ang mga pagkain at inuming inihahain doon ay para lamang sa mga hari at reyna at sa mga prinsipe at prinsesa, 99.99% ng mga kumakain at umiinom noong gabing iyon ay mga banyaga o mamamayan ng ibang mga bansa, samantalang ang mga manggagawang nagsisilbi sa kanila ay mga Pilipino na mayroon pang mga degree sa kolehiyo.

Mga kinaiyahan sa kanhiay Daghan kaayo mga butang nga atong gihimo niadtong unang mga panahon nga wala na karon. Ambut kon diin nato kini makuha o masunod basta na lang kini atong gibuhat ug nakapalipay kanatong tanan ug nakapahupay sa atong balatian. Kini daw nahisakop na sa atong kultura mao nga gikan sa atong mga katigulangan, atong gipasa o gibilin ngadto sa sunod nga henerasyon. Ang nahitabo tungod sa pagbag-o sa kinaiyahan ug pamatasan nawala kini sila ug wala na mahilambibigt ang atong mga kabatan-onan karon. Nahimo nalang kini nga tipik sa panid sa atong mga kagahapon. Ang akong gitumbok niini mao ang kanhi nga harana. Ug tungod kay medyo namn ako karaan nga tawo kon usa ka edaran na (salamat sa Dios) mao nga ako pa kini nga nasakpan nga panahon. Maanindot kini nga pamatasan tipik

The Striker Ben Emata Jr. sa atong kagahapon. Wala na kini karon apan sa isip sa mga karaan nga tawo amo pa madungog ang tingog sa gitara ug ang mga maanindot huni sa kanhiay. Kaniadtong unang panahon, usa sa paagui sa mga lalaki sa ilang paghalad sa ilang gimahal nga babaye mao ang pag harana. Subay sa naandan sa mga lalaki panahon sa kagabiihon, moato sa panimalay sa babaye ug ilang ipahungaw ang ilang gugma ngadto sa babaye pinaagui sa awit duyog sa kinablit sa gitara. Maanindot kini nga tipik sa atong kultura. Moaginud sa mangitngit ug kahilum sa kagabiihon ang maan-

indot nga awit sa gugma unya ang babaye uban sa iyang ginikanan manil-ip sa bintana aron sa pagsuta kon kinsa ang mga nang harana. Sa ubang dapit sa nasud, ang ginikanan sa babaye modungaw sa bintana ug ila nga imbitahon ang mga haranista sa pagsaka sa panimalay diin didto ipadayon ang palupad sa mga awit ug balak. Kon magka relasyon na ang ulitawo ug dalaga posibli nga kini modakin-as ngadto sa kaminyoon. Hibalo ako niini nga pamtasan sa kagahapon tungod kay usa ako sa nakauban sa pagharana sa babye. Apan sa among dapit sa Mindanao, ang mga

haranista dili ipadayon sa panimay. Sil-ipon lamang sila sa barandilyas sa bintana hangtud mahuman sila ug manguli na. Ambut kon tinuod ba kini apan duna kuno ubang mga haranista nga sigi awit ang kauban samtang ang uban usab manghilabut na sa pugaran sa mga manok ug mangawkaw sa itlog. Mga binata lang nga binuang. Ako niadto makauban man sab ug gani mobuga usab ako sa akong mga awit apan dili kaayo ako maga ka largahan tungod kay ang akong tingog medyo man maot ug maulaw ako. Malisud kaayo kaniadto ang pagkuha sa babaye kay wala man kanang mobisita kita sa babaye. Magpadala kami sa sulat sa paghalad sa gugma unya kadaghan sa ginikanan sa babaye strikto man kaayo.

Maternal, child health care in ARMM improve

ARAWI City, Lanao del Sur - The DeM partment of Health in the

Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (DOHARMM) have gathered government and private health workers engaged in maternal and child health care in the region to evaluate two of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) targets of the ARMM government. MDGs are eight international development

goals set by the United Nations to be attained in 2015 following a summit of UN member states in 2000. It includes the reduction of child mortality and improvement of maternal health. Dayang Jumaide, DOH-ARMM assistant secretary, said maternal and child health care have greatly improved in the ARMM with the reduction of the maternal and infant mortality rate.

economic progress and familial welfare in general. She extends her sincere congratulations to PCA for generously considering the long-awaited plan of the coop represented by its chairman of the Board of Directors Anacleto Mejares in availing such grant for Coconut Coir Decorticating Plant to be built at barangay Pangasihan from the Japanese government through Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund-Emergency Economic Assistance (JAIF-EEA) via a project entitled “Strengthening of the Small Holder Coconut-based Industries Project.”

of the organization. While being a tech-based solution, the LIS involves an inclusive, communitydriven process that thrives because of the active engagement and participation of all teachers, principals, planning officers and other DepEd personnel all throughout the Philippines. According to Secretary Armin A. Luistro, “Considering the size of the Department and the number schools under it, it is very critical

mga pagpapala, gabay, at proteksiyon. Makikita natin ang paniniyak na ito sa napakaraming mga bersikulo ng Bibliya, pero ang isa sa mga pinakamalinaw sa mga ito ay yung matatagpuan sa Deuteronomio 28:1-14, at makakabuti sa ating basahin na ang mga ito sa ngayon. Sa kabilang dako, sinabihan

In 2008, maternal mortality rate (MMR) in the region was at 245 per 100,000 live births. This was brought down to 66 per 100,000 live births in 2013, far lower than the national rate of 152 per 100,000 live births. Further, the infant mortality rate (IMR) of 55 per 1,000 live births in 2008 in the region was reduced to 16 per 1,000 live births in 2013.

ARMM Health Secretary Dr. Kadil Sinolinding Jr. attributes the improvement to the wide use techniques such as Active Management of Third Stage Labor (AMTFL) and Essential Intra-partum Newborn Care (EINC) and on the deployment of additional health personnel, rehabilitation and construction of health infrastructures, delivery of equipment and

enhancement of skills through training. “The ARMM pioneered techniques which greatly reduced the IMR and MMR without the use of very sophisticated machines.” Jumaide said the twoday workshop, held August 19-20, was meant to assess maternal and child health care in the region in preparation for the MDGs evaluation survey set in 2015.

The mayor said this administration also gives life to farmers and to their coco farms. In offering economic acceleration to coco farmers, the city government’s counterpart to this promising investment is the donation of the parcel of land measuring to 10,000 square meters located in Pangasihan wherein the processing plant will be constructed. Furthermore, the chief executive has expressed her warm felicitations to all GinFAMCO members for a dream-come-true due to their arduous undertakings in making this Japanese grant into a reality. She has been encouraging all cooperators to work hard and offer their commitment for the success

of this million-valued investment. Her regime is aware that Gingoog is popularly known as “coconut city” wherein numerous coco farmers are depending their livelihood on coconuts, hence she has been doing ways to increase their production together with PCA’s services to them. While concentrating on cocos, the city government works closely with the KAANIB Enterprise Development Project (KEDP) by implementing coconut-coffee based intercropping project among the city’s nine sites covering 350 hectares, by realizing coconut timber utilization project, by sharing counterpart for coco sugar production at Brgy. Agay-ayan.

Further, by having cacao and corn intercropping. In addition, she has been linking with the City Agriculturist Office head Eduardo Sanchez in facilitating the 25,000 bags for salt fertilization program with PCA. Besides, her personnel have been fielding out for the coconut seedling dispersal project aiming to cover city’s 150 hectares. Meanwhile, Jomen praises mayor Guingona’s full support for farmers’ betterment. He further gives thanks to the lady mayor in establishing an open communication between her administration and PCA’s field office for the dynamic implementations of various programs from the agency.

the Board of Judges composed of Arsenio L. Sebastian, chairperson of the Regional Technical Education and Skills Development Committee; Nicandro L. Borja of Associated Labor Unions – Trade Unions Congress of the Philippines and Ricardo De Dios of the Department of Labor and Employment fully expressed their support to the nominee. The Search for Idols ng TESDA

aims to give due recognition to skilled workers who have become successful individuals through tech-voc. These are the workers who are regarded as TESDA Specialista who have contributed to the development of their communities in a tech-voc way. In addition, the said recognition helps increase the level of public awareness and appreciation for

tech-voc education as well as uplift the self-confidence and morale of the Technical-Vocational Education and Training (TVET) graduates. The national Idol ng TESDA winner will be declared on August 28, during the TESDA’s 20th Anniversary Celebration at TESDA Central Office, Taguig, Metro Manila. (Honey Analou E. Doña/ TESDA-10)

for the Agency to be equipped with the right information at the right time to be able to make better decisions. This is essentially an online registry of learners that is important for any educational system or institution. We need to continually get to know our learners better so that we can respond better.” Out of the 46,648 public schools in the country, only 140 (0.3%) schools have failed to submit data for SY 2014-2015, which demonstrates a very high participation and submission rate by the

schools. The concerned divisions have already been instructed to complete the remaining school information immediately. This system is envisioned to allow the Department to better track its learners in both formal and non-formal instruction so that more appropriate interventions can be formulated in the provision of quality education for all Filipino learners. As an example, students who transfer from one school to another can be monitored and better assisted by using data from the LIS.

The use of automation and technology has helped the Department update information on enrollment for planning, budgeting and resource allocation among others. Luistro added that, “What used to take ten months to collect, consolidate and validate has now been reduced to three months. This is a result of the use of technology and the power of our people.” As of June 6, 2014, the Department is looking at a total of more than 20 million student enrollees for public schools. (DepEd)

“We would like gauge how far have we gone in achieving our commitment to the attainment of MDGs for ARMM. We want to pool together stakeholders from the government and our partners in private institutions to strategize convergence efforts and set priority areas for mutual support and program implementation.” (Bureau of Public Information/PIA-10)

Record for breaking India’s record in 2011 for the most trees planted simultaneously in multiple locations. “This initiative also supports the National Greening Program that targets 1.5 million hectares reforested by 2016 to which Mindanao’s contribution is 456,000 hectares and the MindaNOW! Nurturing Our Waters Program which aims to harmonize the management of Mindanao’s natural resources,” Antonino highlighted. Also, to further discuss the preparation for the said event, MinDA with its partners will convene on August 26, 2014 for a Technical Working Group (TWG) Meeting at the MinDA Area Management Office in Butuan City. It was learned that the TWG will serve as the overall in-charged in organizing and facilitating all the “TreeVolution” activities for Caraga region. (JPG/ PIA-Caraga

Adunay thrill ug suspense sa pagpangulitawo palang hangtud nga magkasabut na ug didto sa altar sa kaminyoon mahitabo ang sugilanon sa gugma. Unya ang kasal daku kaayo nga panghitabo sa kagahapon. Adunay kumbira nga walay sama, daghan baboy matuhog ug mga baka nga

tumbahon. Matud pa sa komedya nga sugilanon tumbahon lamang kuno ug ipatindog ra dayun. Unya niadtong unang panahon daghan ang anak sa mga magtiayon. Wala may family planning mao nga tag beinte ka buok anak. Dili man kabalak-an kay niadtog unang panahon

dili kalang mo-amen o mohalok sa ilang kamut kon gikan ka sa escuelahan ug sa pagsimba, usa na kini ka kasal-anan. Ipaluhod ka atubangan sa altar usa ka oras pastilan. Mandagko ang mga bata buotan kaayo ug walay labad sa mga ginikanan. Wala may drugs niadto walay hubog hubog,

walay sigarilyo ug walay bisyo ang mga tawo. Nagpadayon ang ligid ug tuyok sa panahon nga maanindot ang pamtasan sa tawo, matinahuron, mahigugmaon, mapagmahal ug malipayon. (benemata@yahoo.com) Kanhi pamuno sa Lubas sa Dagang Bisaya kon LUDABI. Author of three books.

din tayo na kung di na nga tayo makikinig o susunod sa Diyos, padadalhan Niya tayo ng Kanyang mga sumpa, gaya ng pamamayagpag ng mga banyaga sa ating sariling bayan, kasama na ang pamumuno nila sa atin. -oooBUHAY AT KAMATAYAN DALA NG PAGSUWAY: Bagamat maraming Pilipino ang tatangging di na nga tayo nakikinig at di na sumusunod sa Diyos,

di natin maitatatwa ang katotohanan. Marami sa atin ang di na sumisimba, di na nagtuturo sa ating mga anak ukol sa Diyos, at, marami din ang di na nagbabasa ng Bibliya o sumusunod sa Kanyang mga utos. Tumalikod na tayo ng tuluyan sa Diyos, kaya naman nararanasan na natin ang Kanyang mga sumpa. Kung babasahin natin ang Aklat ng mga Sumpa sa Deuteronomio 28:15-68,

makikita nating naririto na sa atin ang mga sumpang ito---mga dayuhang nagpapakasasa, mga opisyales na nagnanakaw sa bayan, at mga anak nating ibinibigay sa ibang mga bansa sa pangalan ng trabaho. Tinanong ko ang isa sa mga manggagawa ng hotel kung saan kami kumain ng Huwebes ng gabi kung may alam siyang solusyon sa kaganapang ito. Wala siyang masabi. Pero kung

magbabasa lang siya ng Bibliya, makikita niyang ang kailangan lang pala natin ay makinig sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ng pagbabasa ng Bibliya at pagsunod sa Kanyang mga utos. -oooPAALALA: Makinig: “Tambalang Batas at Somintac”, sa 1062 kHz sa AM band, Lunes-Biyernes, alas 6 ng umaga, at sabay sa 1080 kHz, Dagupan City, 711 kHz, Naga City,
