Rufus Rodriguez (2nd District, Cagayan de Oro City) and his brother Rep. Maximo Rodriguez, Jr. (Party-list, Abante Mindanao) authored House Bill 3285 to promote and encourage the use of Philippine made products, materials and supplies in every

Rodriguez cited the policy of the State as embodied in Article XII, Section 12 of the Constitution to promote the preferential use of Filipino labor, domestic materials and locally produced goods, and adopt measures that help make them competitive.

CDO to benefit from FLI’s credit upgrade By NELSON V. CONSTANTINO Editor-in-Chief,BWM

CAGAYAN de Oro’s booming real estate industry is expected to be among the local economies poised to gain further with Filinvest Land Inc. (FLI)’s recent investment upgrade from a credible rating firm. In a press statement, Filinvest said its “PRS Aaa”

credit rating from Philippine Ratings Services (PhilRatings) could further boost its P7billion bond float. The company said Phi lR at ings issue d t he highest credit rating to its proposed P5 billion fixed-rate retail bond offering, with an oversubscription option of P2 billion. The credit rating further

affirms Filinvest’s stability as a company. Filinvest, owned by the Gotianun family, has been into real estate for more than 50 years and this expertise had been brought to Cagayan de Oro to fulfill the Filipino dream to own a home. Filinvest Land, Inc. (FLI) reported that its net income in the first nine months of 2013

rose by 22% year-on-year to Php2.438 billion from the Php2.006 billion registered in the nine months of 2012.

Councilor calls for probe on garbage collection in Oro CAGAYAN de Oro City–– The city council’s committee on health and sanitation has asked an investigation into the unsanitary collection of garbage in the city. City Councilor Dante Pajo said on Thursday that he has been receiving reports that garbage collectors have no gloves, no protective masks, and wear only slippers when collecting garbage around the city. Pajo said that the unsanitary collection of garbage exposes the garbage collec-

tors to all kinds of infections that might jeopardize their health. The report that the volume of garbage collection in the city has increased from 600 tons to 700 tons will also be examined since the task of determining the volume of garbage was reportedly computed by the garbage collector themselves, Pajo added. The city government pays the garbage collection services through the volume See calls, page 7

As Receiver, PDIC took over the bank on December 6, 2013. Sarangani Rural Bank is a single-unit bank located along P. Acharon Blvd., General Santos City, South Cotabato. Latest available records show that as of September 30, 2013, Sarangani Rural Bank had 2,408 accounts with total deposit liabilities of P45.57 million. A total of 2,407 deposit accounts or 99.96% of the accounts have balances of P500,000 or less are fully covered by deposit insurance. Total insured deposits amounted to P44.80 million or 98.31% of total deposits. PDIC said that upon takeover, all bank records shall be gathered, verified and validated. The state deposit insurer assured depositors that all valid deposits shall be paid up to the maximum deposit insurance coverage of P500,000.00. The PDIC also announced that it will conduct

a Depositors-Borrowers Forum on December 11, 2013 to be held at the Audio-Visual Room, MSU Graduate School, CETD Campus, Laurel St., General Santos City at 2:00 in the afternoon. Depositors will be informed of the requirements and procedures for filing deposit insurance claims. Claim forms will be distributed during the Forum, free of charge. The claim forms and the requirements and procedures for filing are likewise available for downloading from the PDIC website, www.pdic. gov.ph. Depositors whose addresses are different from the bank records should update their addresses with the PDIC representatives at the bank premises or during the Forum using the Mailing Address Update Forms to be furnished by PDIC representatives. Duly accomplished Mailing Address Update Forms should be submitted to PDIC representatives accompanied by a photo-bearing ID with signature of the depositor. Depositors may update their addresses until December 12, 2013. Depositors with valid

deposit accounts with balances of P50,000.00 and below need not file deposit insurance claims. But depositors who have outstanding obligations with the Sarangani Rural Bank including co-makers of the obligations, and have incomplete and/or have not updated their addresses with the bank, regardless of amount, should file deposit insurance claims. For depositors that need not file deposit insurance claims, PDIC targets to start mailing payments to these depositors at their addresses recorded in the bank by December 16, 2013.

Biblical reflection Bro. Edcel L. Closas

Troubles Fresh Gospel of the day: Matthew17:9,1013(December14, 2013-Saturday) Matthew 17:9And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead. Matthew 17:10-13-And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist: This gospel reminds us the messianic secret of Jesus and this was the ground why He warned the disciples to keep quiet until the exact time. This is the example that everything has its own perfect time. There are also times that we need to remain silent for a reason. Why we need to keep quiet? Take note, in silence we can reflect and meditate to deepen our faith and belief. This was the point of Jesus why He desired to tell no one about His transfiguration at Mt. Tabor. The more they will close their mouth, the more they can internalize the said extra ordinary event. On the hand, Jesus reminds His disciples about the persecutions that He will encounter. Since, His disciples were following Him in serving God, they will suffer the same. They will be condemned and persecuted for their faith. Are you willing to undergo such troubles in life because of God? SPONSORED:Neneth - Bobong Balino- Dr. Edith, PhD- Tony Jordan - CDO. St. Peter Calungsod, pray for us! Listen: Radio Ultra AM-1188-3:30 PM - Sunday: #09284149490-09266607505: Question – Prayer request

Missing the Point Think a minute… Remember the first people to ever fly an airplane? There were the Wright brothers, just a week before Christmas, 1903. They were so excited they sent an urgent telegram message to their sister which said: “First flight in history today! Hope to be home for Christmas.” Their sister rushed to the local newspaper with the message. The next day, the newspaper headline read: “Local Brothers to Be Home For Christmas.” Not one word was said about their flying! The newspaper editor had completely missed the point of the message: for the first time in the history of the world, human beings could fly.

Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst Did you know another even bigger misunderstanding in history? It’s Christmas. How many of us celebrate Christmas every year? Yet we keep missing the point. We still have not gotten the message and understand what it means. This is all the more surprising since the life of Jesus Christ is the turning point of all history. The world’s calendar is based on His

birth. No one in history has ever been announced hundreds of years before he was born. No one else ever died and was buried for 3 days, then brought Himself back to life. This is because no other man, religious teacher or prophet was God Himself. Only this one man Jesus Christ. “If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen God the Father, because I am God

the Son. And I will come again to judge this world and whomever has chosen not to believe me and ask for my gift of forgiveness and eternal life.” Friend, what we decide and do with Jesus Christ in this life now, decides what Jesus must do with us after we die. So I hope you now understand the point and meaning of Christmas. That God loves us so much, He humiliated Himself to become a human being named Jesus Christ and die for our sins, so we could be forgiven and free to start life all over again. Only this time, we’ll be living our Maker’s way, which is the right way that always works. The choice is yours. Just Think a Minute…

QUEZON CITY ---I was Davao congressman in the late 1980’s when I first met Ricky Reyes who was already widely known as a trend setter in beauty and hair fashion in the Big City. One day, with a group of hairstylists all the way from Manila, he landed in Davao and personally launched his “ISANG GUNTING ISANG SUKLAY” project which was a skills training program for the jobless and unskilled youth and some mothers in our barangays within my first congressional district. They were trained for free and at the end of the course, all the “graduates” also received starter kits consisting of scissors, combs, brushes etc to start a livelihood that could earn them somehow some modest income for the family. That was 25 years or so ago. Fast forward today. A few days ago, my wife Beth and I were brought by Ricky to a place called ‘CHILD HAUS” in Quezon City. It was a big bungalow type 7-bedroom residential house that he converted into a half-way house for young, out-of-town and indigent

Advocacy Mindanao Jess Dureza cancer patients undergoing chemo or treatment in Manila hospitals. There were about 23 children there at the time of our visit, mostly wearing isolation masks. They live there, free board and lodging and medical care including a “bantay” each for as long as their treatment needs them to be in Metro Manila. They have learning and play sessions in between treatments. Ricky is able to generate support from generous benefactors to sustain the expense of a full time staff of six, including doctors and volunteers attending to them. He brought with him 2 sacks of rice when we visited. I was touched when he whispered: “ I told them you brought the rice.” Ricky said during the period of 10 years , there were about 11,000 kids who passed those doors. Some of

them passed away although quite at a remarkably low percentage. Others returned back to their homes cured. There were also a number who kept returning after their cancer recurred. They all came from outside Manila, kids whose treatments needed them to be in Manila and they had nowhere to go. I met some kids from Bicol, Pangasinan, even from the Visayas. A pretty young face on a wheel chair was a bit bloated partly covered by a hygienic mask -- signs of steroid treatment. Another young boy, about 5 years old had a shiny head, ravaged by chemo and all. Ricky told me he could assist just in case I have similarly situated young kids from Mindanao. One could see the passion of selfless service and the love that Ricky showered on the unfortunate young patients as he talked to

them, touched them, hugged them. He was “mader” to all of them. His face however turned sullen when he recalled how the CHILD HAUS and the children beneficiaries were ejected by the PCSO from a government facility that housed them when the Aquino administration took over from the Arroyo government in 2010. Ricky however declined to give me details. He merely said that the eviction resulted to more blessings from generous donors that made possible their transfer to its present site. He related how, during those trying times,(he shed pails of tears on public television, I was told) the family of tycoon Henry Sy Sr of SM through his son, Businessman Hans Sy, told him that he could use a 7-bedroom bungalow that was available somewhere in the vicinity of Quezon City hall. The residential house was promptly transformed into a dormitory . All vacant spaces were filled with double-deck beds. It has a spacious garage that now is a common function area, a dureza | page 7

In Governor Bambi Emano’s Budget Message, addressed to all the members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, he emphasized the main thrust of the budget which focuses on Eco – Tourism, the main flagship program of his administration called “Turismo sa Misamis Oriental” or “Explore MisOr” which is exemplified under the eight pillars designed to fast track the development of the province, to wit; Environment, Infrastructure, Education, Agriculture, Health, Transportation, Cooperatives, and Peace and Order. In the budget, General Public Services amounts to P540,263,163.48 or 33%. Social Services amounts to P650,265,469.71 or 40%. L ast ly, E conomic Ser vices amounts to P441,628,149.81 or 27% to the total budget. It is noteworthy that even though the budget focuses on Eco – Tourism, a potential revenue source of the province, Social Services, particularly the hospitals, were given the big chunk which was 40% of the annual budget. It has to be emphasized that services for the underprivileged is of utmost importance to the administration. Further, the budget for M i s a m i s O r i e nt a l Telephone System, Inc. (MISORTEL), which was not included in the Annual Budget in the previous years, was already included in the Special Account, providing subsidy in the meantime pending the consideration of alternative options/packages to be able to take off from its current status of op-

Moreover, according to Vice Governor Joey G. Pelaez, the 3rd tranche of the Salary Standardization Law will be implemented next year which will increase the salary of the employees of the Provincial Capitol with the budget approval. “We will give them what is due to them under the law in order to maximize their

increased 30% to P6.974 billion in the first three months of 2013. On the other hand, Rental Revenues reached P1.496 billion, 8% more than January to September of 2012. Major contributors to the good sales performance during the period included the launching of new midrise buildings (MRBs) and h ou s e - and - l ot proj e c t s in diverse new locations, intensive marketing activities and attractive pricing. Some of the new MRBs and high-rise building that boosted sales include San Remo Oasis, The Levels and Studio Zen. Growth in rental revenues is mainly attributable to rental income at Grand Cenia and higher occupancy in both mall and offices spaces in EDSA Transcom Building, Vector Two and Plaza B, and three readybuilt factories in Filinvest Technology Park in Calamba, Laguna, commercial spaces in Brentville, Mamplasan, Laguna and commercial lots in Tagaytay. FLI in Cagayan de Oro FLI’s first venture in the region is One Oasis Cagayan de Oro, the first Mid-Rise Development in the city’s downtown central business districts. The Asian-Balinese themed development along Rosario Limketkai Avenue has five medium rise buildings (MRB). Work has started on the first seven storey unit and sales have been brisk for its 314 one and two bedroom units. It boasts of three-level podium parking, residential parking and driver’s lounge. One Oasis unique advantage compared to nearby projects is its resort themed amenities which occupy half of its 2.7 hectare areas including open spaces and landscaped gardens, hence, its tagline “Your Patch of Green in the City”. Complete with all the facilities of modern living, it’s just minutes away from shopping malls, schools, churches, hospitals and offices. As one of the country’s le ading cong lomerates, FLI long noted what the National Competitiveness Council (NCC) recently verified officially: Cagayan de Oro is the Philippines most competitive city in 2012. Credit Upgrade FLI has over 100 projects in 39 cities across the country, with a land bank of 2,251 hectares as of end-2012, according to PhilRatings. “Despite the aggressive expansion of the company, its debt-to-equity ratio and debt-to-capitalization ratio remained relatively conservative at 0.57x and 3 6 . 2 % , re sp e c t ively, as of the first half of 2013,” PhilRatings said. At the same time, the debt watcher noted “prospects for the real estate industry continue to remain strong,

medical clinic room, kitchen, etc. Now, kind souls come to the facility bringing sunshine and joy to the otherwise unfortunate victims of cancer. Beth counted about 9 or so of them sick with leukemia -- and so young in age. While we were leaving, we met at the sidewalk a young couple bringing down from their van food and items into the house. Someone was celebrating a birthday in the couple’s family and what better celebration they could have than by bringing their “handa” and goodies and bringing cheers instead to the sick children. I looked at the children’s eyes as they sang christmas songs to us. I knew some of them would die soon. Others would have to go through painful treatment and healing procedures. Some were so young they could not even comprehend what was happening to them. Some mothers left their families in the provinces just to be with them -- for sure agonizing with them. But then my thoughts consoled me thinking and believing that they are God’s chosen few who suffer so that others like us may be given the opportunity to share and be blessed. “Mader Ricky Reyes” runs a regular TV program at 9 a.m. every Saturday at GMA TV NEWS CHANNEL where he tirelessly calls for those blessed to share their blessings. No wonder he is also so blessed.
