Mayor Emano supak armasan ang ‘tanod’ C Sinulat ni Jun Felicilda, City Editor
CdeO Mayor Emano
CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – “Dili mahimo’ng basta na lang kay gitudlo sa barangay kapitan, isyuhan ka na dayon og armas,” opinyon ni Mayor Vicente Emano. Alang kaniya, kinahanglang tun-un og maayo ang kapasidad ug suta-on kung responsable ba gayod mohupot og armas ang natungdang tanod. Sa iyahang programa sa radyo, ang mayor miingon nga “nagkihanglan kita og dugang pwersa batok sa
mga kriminal, apan angay gayod gihapon nga ipasubay sa hustong mga pamaagi ug pamalaod ang pag-armas kanila.” “Well, you’ve been appointed as barangay tanod because you’re a friend, you have a special relationship with the barangay captain mao nga gi-isyuhan ka og armas aron panalipdan ang katawhan, apan ikaw na hinoon ang mamahimong hulga sa katawhan,” pangagpas ni ni Mayor Emano. Sa laing isyu, ang mayor mikomento batok sa pagprivatize sa government hospitals. “The intention is good, pero dili angay kay pananglitan i-privatize kanang Northern Mindanao Medical Center (NMMC), magunsa na lang ang mga kabus?” pangutana niya. Obserbasyon sa mayor nga dili lamang mga kabus nga taga-Misamis Oriental emano /P5

The committee will convene tomorrow to further discuss the mechanics of the project, with representatives from BJMP. (LCR/asf)

Our resurrection and our life!
He is Jesus, the Good Shepherd, our Redeemer, in whom we put our complete trust-- in this life and int the next. If you accept him as your Lord and savior, you start to live the eternal life, but you must learn to imitate Christ, which is to love like him. Scripture states: Tread the way of love like Christ. Augustine said: “Here, once and for all, you have been given the short precept: Love and do what you will. If you keep silence, let it be for love. If you speak, let it be for love. If you correct someone, correct for love. If you pardon, pardon for love. Cherish the root of love in the depth of your heart. From this root nothing but good can come.” That’s a tall order. Scripture says, “How can you
Coffee Break Crispin Dannug profess to love God whom you do not see, if you do not love the person, the brother, or the sister beside you?” Meanwhile, we would like to congratulate our crop of college graduates. Four to five years of hard work has won for you a degree. This is victory enough for you and your parents. To your parents, would they have spent enough for you if they knew you’ll not make it? Meantime, too, is it too much to extend to them and your benefactors the gratitude and the share of victory that they deserve? The closest that you can thank them, my young
graduates, is for you to immediately land a job. This is now the ultimate challenge--there are a hundred applicants for each available job offering. How do you move to the top of the list and get that job? A diploma shouldn’t be enough. A sense of selfconfidence, and a capacity to meet the expectation of the employer at the precise moment of the interview, can get you ahead of the pack. A simple rule of thumb to applicants is to give your best during your interview. There are talent scouts from among the multimillion peso companies in Cagayan de Oro who already skimmed the cream
from the various colleges and universities. To those hired by this process, much is expected from you. You are also assured of at least five years of excellent work or engagement in these companies. To the rest who will burn the wire, wear their shoes out, and/or continuously surf the web, take heart. Don’t lose hope. The best is yet to come. Meanwhile, in this precious meanwhile, grab the next available job. The experience you will get can be enough to propel you to big time. For those who have the facility of language, take up law and hurdle the bar, or get a masters degree. For those with a mastery of mathematics, take up high-tech engineering, or opt for a degree on nano-technology, and add a feather to your cap. There’s always scholarship life /P5
Easter, the ultimate victory THAT’S the victor y of Easter, the resurrection of Christ when he finally conquered death itself and with it all the malice of sin and evil. It’s the victory that recovers our original dignity as image and likeness of God and nothing less than God’s children in Christ, the dignity we lost because of sin. This ultimate victory even enhances that dignity, since it involves God becoming like us so that we can be like him! It’s this very sublime exchange and sharing that comprises the supreme good that can happen to us. Some people have considered it a Pyrrhic victory since it involves quite a tremendous cost. It’s like saying that the resurrection of Christ has given us only a zero-sum triumph, since what we gain with it is almost the same as what
Candidly Speaking FR. ROY CIMAGALA
we lose. This is, of course, a very poor understanding of this truth of faith. While it’s true that this culmination of the redemptive work of Christ on us entailed nothing less than his life, it’s also true that that death has been converted into a gateway to our salvation with his resurrection. What matters is what happens in the end, with an effect that will be for always. If we believe this truth and live it ourselves, identifying everything in our
life with the life and the passion, death and resurrection of Christ, then we too can partake of this ultimate victory. We should not forget that it will involve nothing less than the offering of our life. Before that, it obviously will entail a lot of suffering—the cross, in other words—which Christ already warned us about when he said that if we want to follow him, then we should deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow him.
It would be nice if we can quit wasting time by fussing about this truth, and simply proceed to live it, acquiring the relevant attitude and skills to put it into practice. Yes, with this truth about our assured ultimate victory in Christ, we ought to have the confidence and serenity in going about the affairs of our life. Plus, a driving sense of responsibility that should push us to do things for others without counting the cost. The other day, someone told me about an advanced management program designed in the likes of those in Harvard and the number 1 European business school, IESE, in Barcelona, Spain. What caught my attention is that this program is offered to the CEOs and owners of big companies in the Philippines and the easter /P5
Make excuses or make money Think a minute… A very successful business has this as their motto: “You can make excuses, or you can make money, but you can’t do both!” It’s true. Many times we make excuses because we’re afraid. We’re afraid to fail, and of what people might think. We’re afraid to change and do something new and different. Or we’re afraid that we don’t have what it takes to be successful. We think we’re not smart enough. But it’s only after you push past these fears and excuses that
you can be confident to go for it! That’s the only way to start being successful in your life. You see, successful people are human just like you and me. They have to face the same fears and excuses we all do. But the difference is in what they do with their fears and excuses. Even though they feel afraid just like us, they simply discipline and force themselves to go for it anyway. That’s the only way any new successful career or business got started. Remember, successful people
were also unsuccessful, until they chose to exchange their habit of making excuses for the better habit of making the most of their abilities. It just makes sense it’s the One Who made you Who knows all of your abilities and potential He gave you. So if you ask Him to be your personal life manager, He’ll help you become all that He planned for you to be. And the first thing He’ll do is get you to stop making excuses and to start being a success by being your best. So why not ask Jesus Christ to forgive
you and to take charge of your life today? Then, you can get started down your road to success. Just Think a Minute…
