Multi-million hotel for Turtle Islands soon to rise

By ERIC F. GALLEGO DENR Public Affairs 13

T

he two new eaglets discovered in the mountains of the Zamboanga peninsula in December last year have kept the hopes of the Filipino people alive in saving the Philippine Eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi) from extinction.

To boost ecotourism and accommodate tourists for the Turtle Island Wildlife Sanctuary (TIWS) in TawiTawi, the Protected Area Management Board (PAMB) approved yesterday a resolution for the construction of a Php 28 million Hotel to

fishing (IUUF) in both domestic and high seas.

This is in response to the advice of European Commissioner for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Maria Damanaki, who -- in a briefing held June 10 in Brussels, Belgium -- sought the country’s commitment in deterring and preventing

DENR 13 Regional Director Nonito M. Tamayo made this encouraging remarks over the radio at the start of the opening of the 10th celebration of the Philippine Eagle Week on June 4-10. “The entire Filipino people is being encouraged by the DENR Secretary Ramon JP Paje to take part in the observance of the Philippine Eagle Week.”

Director Tamayo said.

“The people particularly those living in the hinterlands must understand the importance of protecting of the Philippine Eagle which also known as “Haring Ibon” or “ Agila ” in local dialect.

The celebration this year according to Secretary Paje “will be very extra special because three new additions to the eagle’s population were recorded in December last year”. “This discovery provides a glimmer of hope

The Magnificent Philippine Eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi)

By Biodiversity Management Bureau

The Philippine Eagle, our national bird, is the largest eagle in the world. This magnificent bird proudly stands at one ( 1 ) meter in height and has a wingspan of about two (2) meters.

Its head is adorned with pointed crown feathers known as “crest” and it has a massive arched beak.

Our national bird has been given mighty names in the various regions such

as “Haring lbon”, “ Agila”, “Mamboogook”, “Garuda”, “Banog”, “Asinmanonoy”, and “Biok”.

The female lays only one (1) egg every two (2) years. Nests, measuring 1-2 meters wide, are built on large trees usually found

along steep slopes and ravines. Both parents take turns incubating the egg for about 60 days. At 22 months, the young eagle leaves its parents’ home and searches for its own territory.

City hall to discuss report on relocation of calamity victims

THE City Council committee on urban and rural poor chaired

by Councilor Leon Gan Jr. will soon discuss the report of the City Planning and Development Office (CPDO) thru the Estate Management Division regarding Sendong Survivors who are not yet relocated to the City’s Relocation Sites.

The CPDO submitted to the committee the summary list of names of residents of Cugman, Puntod, Pagatpat, Consolacion and Indahag who were given slots at the relocation site.

The committee is also slated to look into concerns regarding monetary/reloca-

tion assistance to be given to the occupants residing in a property in Barangay Tablon owned by Pilgrim Christian College.

It may be recalled that Councilor Gan requested the management of the school to look for ways to assist and address the demands of the

informal settlers occupying the property noting that an eviction order has long been issued to the occupants.

According to a school official, the school cannot afford the demands of the occupants.

The school can only afford P3,000 to affected families, he said. (JBD)

Word on fire Bro. Edcel L. Closas

Positive Special Gospel of the day: John 16:20-26-verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy: 1 Peter 4:12-14-Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

James 1:12-blessed [is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

The truth is no one is “exempted in our daily sufferings” because the “genuine Christians” are partakers of the sufferings of Jesus Christ.

If we are “hesitant” to face the trials in our spiritual journey, this means that we are not the followers of Christ. Mark 8:34-And when he had called the people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. St. Pio said, “Our physical sufferings can purify our souls.

“This means that our “sufferings, trials and crosses” are “purifiers to cleanse us spiritually” and for us to be “worthy in the kingdom of God.” In facing every circumstance, we can experience pains in our hearts and we must persevere despite of this for us to be saved.

Take note, the word “pains” has a meaning, positive attitude in negative situations.

Remember, pains are just temporary because if we will be in heaven, joy is our “everlasting reward.” Are you a positive thinker?

Independence Day is July 4 The Philippines’ true independence Day is July 4 and not June 12. It was on July 4, 1946 when the United States of America granted independence to the Philippines. That was the beginning of the Republic of the Philippines, no more no less. If we refer to history, prior to July 4, the country flew two flags in all flagpoles in the country, namely: the Philippine flag and the American flag. We sang two national anthems, namely: the Philippine National anthem and the American National anthem. History will prove this and even the old timers who are still alive today will support it..

And for decades, the country was celebrating Independence Day on July 4. It was during the time of then Pres. Diosdado Macapagal who was utterly hurt of America because U.S. Congress denied him something he was asking and he changed the celebration to June 12 in reference to Emilio Aguinaldo’s proclamation of Independence in the balcony of his home

The Striker Ben Emata Jr. in Kawit on June 12, 1898.

Pres. Macapagal driven by emotion acted on his own.

But we must remember that in 1898 and the subsequent years, we were under Spain and engaged in a revolution.

In these years we produced a lot of heroes fighting against Spain. We had Rizal, Bonifacio, Mabini, etc. We ran to the mountains because the Spanish soldiers were bayoneting us alive.

And then the Americans came and engaged the Spanish men in fierce battle. They won easily but again had to face the Filipino fighters. Needless to say, the Filipinos who were out numbered and out armed were down on their knees in a short time.

Incidentally, many Filipinos liked the Americans better than the Spanish people.

The Americans operated the Philippines like its state and headed by a governor.

We remember so well we had American leaders like Governor Taft (now Taft Avenue in Manila) Harrison, Dewey and a lot others.

The Americans let the Filipinos led their people, opened public offices, schools, universities, hospitals and everything needed by us. During World War II, the Filipinos fought hard against the enemies of America and there the American people saw us as good friends and ally thus giving us the right to sovereignty .

That was the birth of the Republic of the Philippines.

America was so good to us notwithstanding some of us being mischievous, untrustworthy and unfriendly. We

drove their military bases in Clark Field and Olongapo but still they give us financial assistance and maintain its friendship until these days. They even vowed to protect us against invasion

by China and other nations.

We are the spoiled brat, so loved and pampered by a big brother.

So no matter how we changed our Independence Day to June 12, the fact remains that July 4 is still and will always be a fact, reflecting our true Independence Day. We can change the face of the world but never the fact of something that exist. I was a little boy when I witnessed myself a bugler in our place played our national anthem while the American flag was lowered from a flagpole. It used to fly proudly side by side with our flag. I would still salute to the courageous effort of Gen. Aguinaldo for his patriotism and nationalism. To everyone, enjoy Independence Day in our country. We won it fighting. It was never given to us for free.(benemata@ yahoo.com)

The job we must not fail Think a minute…

Recently on television I saw the mother and father of a young 15-year-old girl being interviewed. Their daughter’s teenage boyfriend had told her that the only way they could be together was for them to kill themselves. So the 15-year-old girl took a gun and shot herself in the head.

But when her boyfriend saw her dead, he became afraid and ran away. I watched the parents of this young girl who killed herself break down and cry on TV. They were begging all parents to get closer to our children, and to especially really understand what our kids are feeling and going through in their own life.

It doesn’t matter how much success you and I have in our jobs and ca-

Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst reers. Even if we get the best education, become leaders with high titles and respected by many people, or if make heaps of money or have the highest titles.

But if we fail in our marriage and with our children. If we fail to love and raise our children to be confident, mature, honest people who passionately love God and others. None of our other successes can make up for us failing as parents. It’s the one job we must not fail!

Being a successful par-

ent is a tough job and big responsibility. To love, teach, and shape a human being wisely from the moment they start life is overwhelming! After all, babies come into our world with no manual or instructions.

Then, as they grow their needs change. Plus, each child is different, so what works with one of our kids, may not work with the other.

Yet even when we make mistakes, we can still get closer to our children so

they will both respect us and also count us as their close friends. Many times the kids who rebel and make bad choices are the ones with parents who just make strict rules, but they are not close to their children.

It’s usually the kids who are close to their parents who really respect, love, and want to care for their parents when they’re old.

But no matter how old your children are, it’s never too late to start being a better parent. Why not ask Jesus to forgive you for all your mistakes and to take charge, so He can start changing you with His love, power, and wisdom? It’s only with Jesus in complete charge of your character that you can become the parent and friend your kids need.

Just Think a Minute…

DOST develops new strategies for more pro-active disaster preparedness in PHL The Department of Science and Technology will be sharing lessons on innovations in disaster risk reduction and management, including its new agenda for including “predictive damage” and “business continuity” as part of the country’s pro-active disaster preparedness agenda.

DOST Secretary Mario G. Montejo first announced the two concepts during the recent opening plenary session of the Asia Europe Meeting (ASEM) Manila Conference (2014) hosted by the Philippines at the Diamond Hotel.

The recent onslaught of typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) called for new ways on the practice of disaster risk reduction and management and its inclusion as priority in the country’s development agenda.

“Recent severe weather events clearly showed that mega disasters are the new challenge we have to face.

And we cannot be caught flat-footed or ill-prepared because doing so costs us more,” Montejo said.

Before Haiyan, mega disasters in Asia included the 2011 tsunami in Japan and the 2004 tsunami in Aceh, Indonesia.

“Advanced information on impending disasters de-

rived through the application of science and cuttingedge technologies enables vigilant local governments and the public to take early action and in turn, save lives,” he added.

In the Philippines, the use of science-based weather information was made possible

by DOST’s modernization project, which included flagship programs such as the Nationwide Operational Assessment of Hazards (Project NOAH), which offers an online platform to monitor typhoons and floods based on real-time data feeds from 1,000 rain and water level sensors nationwide and the internationally renowned national 3D mapping project called Disaster Risk Assessment, Exposure and Mitigation-Light Ranging and Detection Technology (DREAM-LiDAR). The latter won the prestigious Geospatial World Excellence in Policy Implementation Award for 2014 awarded by the Geospatial World Forum last May in Geneva.

B ot h proj e c ts were launched under the direction of the Aquino administration to promote a more proactive stance on disaster management with the delivery of science-based information to local communities and national disaster

managers and the vigilance of leaders and first responders to act accordingly based on the information showed that it can be possible to achieve zero casualties and reduce risks and damages due to flooding, and disasters related to severe weather events.

He cited local champions in the country that benefited from the use of Project NOAH and 3D map models of the DREAM Project such as Marikina City, which enforced evacuation hours ahead of the 2012 and 2013 Habagat (Southwest Monsoon) Flood events, which registered Ondoy-like flood levels. In 2009, the same city in the metro was submerged in floods after Ketsana (Ondoy) dumped a month’s worth of rain— about 300mm—in a span of only six hours.

Predictive damage and business continuity Since the commencement of the Aquino administration’s term in 2009, the DOST has undergone major improvements to provide quality, accurate, locationspecific, and timely information based on science so local leaders and communities may know how to best deal with an impending disaster.

To date, DOST has nearly completed the mapping of

two-thirds of the 18 major river systems of the country, which included Marikina River and Cagayan River, both of which overflowed and flooded nearby communities during the typhoon season.

The DOST plays a crucial role in terms of providing information related to weather and geological hazards in the Philippines, mainly through its agencies Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) and the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), respectively.

Pushing further the envelope for better disaster preparedness, DOST is introducing the concept of “predictive damage” and “business continuity.”

Predictive damage, noted Sec. Montejo, “is the capability of being able to simulate and model severe weather events and the amount or extent of damage that they would cause to the areas affected.”

Probability-based behavioral damage models for various types of infrastructure and natural assets of concern can be developed by evaluating and analyzing historical data on damage caused by previous severe weather

events. These models then used in conjunction with improving weather forecast methodologies would allow the prediction of probable damage, thus allowing proactive disaster preparedness and response.

“This approach is not only applicable for response or near-term planning but may also be used for a medium- and long- term disaster risk reduction program,” he added.

On the other hand, “business continuity is the capability to restore, within a prescribed period, vital services both public and private after a severe weather event. These vital services include power, communications, transport, food and drinking water, heath, security, banking and commerce, among others.”

Vital services can be restored after 12, 24 or 48 hours or more depending on the priority of a service.

The DOST proposed that a committed “business continuity” timetable for vital services be made the goal for all disaster preparedness and response programs.

The predictive damage will serve as the starting point for analyzing the strength and vulnerabilities of critical assets and infrastructure against severe

weather scenarios modeled using the maps generated

by DOST’s projects. This will allow planners to better understand areas for improvement, retrofitting, and can even go as far as provisioning of backup services for disaster preparedness and response.

Other plenary speakers in the event include Philippine cabinet officials and leaders of international organizations on DRRM, such as Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario, Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin, Senator Loren Legarda, EU Commissioner for International Cooperation, Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Kristalina Georgieva, and United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) Head Margareta Wahlstrom.

The Department of Foreign Affairs is the lead coordinator for the conference in partnership with the Office of Civil Defense (OCD).

The Philippines jointly organized the ASEM Manila Conference 2014 with Japan, Switzerland, and the European Union, together with sponsorship of Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Indonesia, Norway, Spain, Vietnam, and the United Kingdom. (DOST/RJB/JCP/ PIA-NCR)

Yamaha Motorcycle fans unite to break three Guinness World Records

P

asay City – It is a guarantee that one can find droves of motorcycles in every road in the Philippines. With motorcycles lording over our major roads, it is just timely for the country to break records with these vehicles.

Yamaha Motor Philippines Inc. and the whole nation of the Philippines can now proudly add, The Most Number of Motorcycle Engines Started Simultaneously with 1,446 Yamaha Club participants, The Most Number of Motorcycle Horns Sounded Simultaneously with 1,425 Yamaha Club participants, and The Largest Parade of Yamaha Motorcycles with 1,208 Yamaha Club participants to its list of Guinness World Records.

Yamaha Motor Philippines Inc, with the launch of its new slogan “Revs Your Heart,” celebrated its annual Yamaha Club Day making history, by attaining all three world records.

Hundreds of thousands of Yamaha Club Riders banded together at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds, revving their engines, beeping their horns, and parading their bikes, all in support of the group’s bid for the three records.

While two of the records were easily created by the club, the world record for

Largest Parade of Yamaha Motorcycles, had to be earned. The titlist holder then was TDMitalia, a motorcycle group from Italy that had 206 Yamaha motorcycles, parade at the Santamonica International Racetrack in 2003. However, breaking that record was an easy feat for the large number of Yamaha Club’s loyal members present in the event.

After the club’s display of solidarity, and the awarding of the Guinness World Records, the members were treated to a concert and were given prizes and freebies.

The Yamaha Club was established with the premise of having direct communication with the company’s valuable customers. The club gives their customers a heads up on new products and events, as well as freebies and discounts so that their customers can enjoy the “two-wheeled lifestyle.” It is now the largest motorcycle club in the country, boasting an estimate of more than 85,000 members nationwide.

This year’s Yamaha Club Day was sponsored

by Dickies, Monster, BH&R the Bellevue, American Home Appliances, Philstar Ngayon, Sprinto, MotoActive and Shell.

for the national bird,” Secretary Paje said referring to the report of the birth of two new eagles in Linay, Zamboanga del Norte and Midsalip, Zamboanga del Sur. “In the midst of the government efforts to restore our dwindling forests, the presence of these birds boosts our hope of achieving a thriving forest ecosystem and a constant reminder that wildlife can co-exist harmoniously with humans,” Paje said.

The DENR in cooperation with the Haribon and the LGU of Gabaldon is intensifying their efforts to protect Mt. Mingan from human activities to preserve the population of the eagle.

In Caraga Region, Director Tamayo said there were sightings of Philippine Eagles hovering the vast forest areas of Mt. HilongHilong in the eastern section of Agusan del Norte and the former timber land area of the defunct Surigao Development Corp (SUDECOR) in Surigao del Sur and in the erstwhile timber concession area of PICOP in Bislig City.

Acclaimed as one of the treasures of the Philippine wild, the national bird is the largest eagle in the world.

With its height of one meter and a wing span of two meters, the Philippine eagle reigns supreme in the tropical forest as a top predator.

A pair of this majestic bird occupies 7,000 to 13,000 hectares of forest territory.

IUUF to avoid the possibility of being identified as a non-cooperating country in the international fight against the illegal practice.

The Philippines is one of the exporters of agrifisheries products to the EU. In a statement released Thursday, the DA said the Philippine government has been actively and positively engaging the European Commission’s Directorate General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG-MARE) in informal dialogues to address issues on IUUF for the last two years.

“The Philippine Government has started and made substantial progress in pursuing legal, administrative and budgetary reforms to effect good governance in the fishing sector to address, not only IUUF, but also its concomitant cause or drivers,” the DA said.

It added that during the last informal dialogue with DG-MARE on June 3-6, 2014, the agency, through the its Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), has reiterated all actions and progress made on the IUUF issue.

These include the adoption of the National Plan of Action (NPOA), that was signed as Executive Order No. 154 by President Benigno S. Aquino III

in December 2013, which prompted the creation of an Inter-agency Philippine Committee against IUUF. Also included are initiatives to amend the national Fisheries Code to further strengthen policy instruments against IUUF; and the passage of a new traceability regulation (FAO 251 s. of 2014) to help ensure that only non-IUU fish will make it to Philippine markets.

Meanwhile, the DA said it has already instituted fundamental reforms in its fisheries monitoring control and surveillance, as exemplified by a fully functional Vessel Monitoring System (VMS); the acquisition of 97 multi mission patrol craft; and the funding for 2 units of 55-meter multi-mission vessels to help monitor Philippine-flagged fishing vessel operating in high seas.

The DA said that the above efforts would soon be complemented by the recruitment and training of additional regulatory, quarantine and fish inspection personnel beginning July of this year.

“We hold with high degree of importance the advice given by Commissioner Demanaki. We find the advice consistent with our own national priority and reform program of this administration,” the DA said. (PNA)

be built in Taganak Island.

TIWS PAMB Chairman Arleigh J. Adorable approved the resolution after the presentation of the perspective and layout plans by a representative of the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) during the 1st PAMB Regular Meeting held at Chandlers Suites, Pagadian City.

The hostel, as funded by TIEZA, shall consist of one hotel main building, restaurant, power house and eight cottages and is designed to be modest and functional so as to accommodate guests and provide the basic comforts that they need during their visit.

Adorable said that once other basic requirements are fully accomplished, there is no impediment for the project to push through within this year.

Aside from the hostel, other proposed infrastructure include a law enforcement center and a small port for the utilization of tourist boats, Adorable added.

This latest development was lauded by other members of the PAMB composed of local government units, nongovernment organizations, academe, religious sector and government agencies as this will boost not only the ecotourism potential of the area but also help in the conservation efforts of marine turtles.

Turtle Islands is part of the Sulu Archipelago which is composed of approximately 400 islands of varying shapes and sizes. It is located at the southwestern tip of the Philippines, about 1,000 km southwest of Manila. The municipality

The Purveyor of Truth, Justice and Development

of Turtle Islands is right at the edge of the international treaty limits separating the Philippines and Malaysia. The group of islands, namely, Boan, Lihiman, Langaan, Great Bakkungan, Taganak, and Baguan, is situated south of Palawan, northwest of the Tawi-Tawi mainland and northeast of Sabah, Malaysia. The islands have an aggregate land area of 308 hectares. The smallest island, the Langaan measures about 7 hectares, while the largest, the Taganak Island, is about 116 hectares.

It was proclaimed as Wildlife Sanctuary under Proclamation No. 171 on August 26, 1999 and identified as Extremely High (EH) for biodiversity conservation. It is regarded as the only major nesting ground (with more than 1,000 nesters annually of the Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas) in the whole ASEAN Region.

Coastal Zone Management Service, said the 23 POs comprise the program’s initial beneficiaries in the region this year with the full rollout of the SCREMP’s sustainable livelihood component.

She said they are currently working on signing separate memorandum of agreements with the beneficiaries to facilitate the release of the livelihood grants.

The forging of the MOAs will formalize the ties between the DENR and the POs once the requirements for the livelihood proposals are properly complied, she said.

SCREMP is a national program for the rehabilitation of coral reef ecosystems through a strategic, sustainable and ecosystems-based approach.

The initiative, which runs until the year 2020, is mainly implemented by the Coastal and Marine Management Office of the DENR’s Biodiversity Management Bureau (formerly the Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau).

Part of the program’s components are sustainable livelihood interventions, which centers on the “identification and development of community-centered, communitydriven, practical, sustainable and environmentally friendly livelihood projects directed towards the improvement of the socio-economic welfare of local communities in order to obtain public support in the conservation and protection of the coastal and marine environment.”

“The program mainly aims to uplift the lives of residents in our coastal communities so they can also properly support our conservation and protection for our critical coastal and marine resources,” Brahim said.

She said the livelihood projects proposed by the 23 POs will be implemented in various coastal communities in this city and in the municipalities of Glan, Maasim, Maitum and Alabel in Sarangani Province.

She said two of the beneficiary-organizations are based in this city, eight in Glan, seven in Maasim, four in Maitum and two in Alabel.

The proposed projects include a sari-sari store, mangrove nursery, fish processing, goat raising, poultry raising,

sea turtle hatchery, mangrove planting, rice milling operation, buy-and-sell business, rice/fish store, mud crab fattening facility, mobile rice mill and rattan crafts production.

The official said the livelihood ventures underwent final review late last month through the SCREMP’s 11-man regional technical working group.

Brahim said the review focused on the viability of the ventures and the capability of the beneficiaries in terms of sustaining them.

“Our main consideration is to make sure that these projects will have long term impact on people’s lives,” she added. (MindaNews)

Eagle....... from page 1

The Philippine eagle is endemic to the Philippines and is known to inhabit the forested areas of the Sierra Madre and the Cordillera Mountain Ranges of Luzon, Samar, Leyte and Mindanao.

This critically endangered bird with a current population estimate of about 500 pairs (Ibanez,et al.,2006) throughout the archipelago faces the risk of extinction due primarily to loss of habitat. If this persists, the young eagle would have no territories of its own to perpetuate its kind. Hunting of the species has also contributed to their declining population.

Why do we need to conserve them?

The Philippine eagle is a national symbol for the rich Filipino heritage.

Soaring high amidst all adversities, it epitomizes the Filipinos’ tenacity and resiliency in overcoming all odds to achieve their goals and aspirations.

The Philippine eagle and other raptors regulate the population of smaller animals that can pose danger to humans (i.e. snakes) or cause damage to agricultural crops (i.e. rats).

Their presence in forests is an ecological indicator of a rich and biodiverse environment.

Philippine eagle habitats can be utilized as ecotourism destinations when managed sustainably. The can be a great venue for bird watchers, hikers, and tourists to marvel at the beauty of this magnificent bird and other wildlife, while also providing livelihood for the local communities.

What can you do to help our Eagles?

Report to the nearest DENR Office the following: • any sightings in the wild including those that have been captured or injured; • any illegal activity such as hunting, killing, and trapping of eagles.

Make it your personal advocacy: Tell others about the importance of conserving wildlife.

Support the rehabilitation of forest habitats by planting more trees.

Reduce, reuse, and recycle your garbage to lessen the demand for forest-derived products. (www.denr.gov.ph)
