DAVAO City--If Mayor Rodrigo Duterte will lose in the 2016 Presidential race, it will be his first electoral defeat since 1988 but he says he would not mind at all if he loses or gets disqualified.

In his Sunday television program “Gikan sa Masa, Para sa Masa,” Duterte said that if either scenario hap-

pens, he will retire from public service and leave the city in the hands of his children, Sara Duterte-Carpio and Paolo Duterte.

Duterte withdrew his certificate of candidacy (COC) for mayor and had his lawyer in Manila file his COC for President See defeat, page A11

The CYNOSURE

Cris Diaz

reported that the carbon dioxide emission continues to rise, which would mean a rise in the Earth’s temperature. The carbon emissions of the coal-fired power plants have been identified as among the “largest contributor to climate change.”

The Washington Post has cited the Met Office and Climatic Research Unit at Britain’s University of East Anglia that the Earth’s average temperature has crossed the symbolically important 1-degree C (1.8 F) mark,

with temperatures over the first nine months of the year exceeding historic norms by exactly 1.02 degrees C. The WMO commented that the long-term implications for the planet include “hotter global temperatures and more extreme weather events,” as well as melting ice, rising sea levels and increased acidity in the oceans.

“It is an invisible threat, but a very real one. We are moving into uncharted territory at a frightening speed,” WMO Secretary General Michel Jarraud said of the report’s findings.

The reports are likely to add to concerns about global warming in a year that climate experts say is almost certain to surpass 2014 as the hottest year in recorded history.

But, what does the climate change anything to do with the Philippines? While President Benigno Aquino is among the leaders who participated the climate change summit, one knows

IN reaction to the ongoing climate change summit where 150 world leaders around the world gathered in Paris, Pope Francis commented that the human race is on the “limits of suicide.”

The Pope was referring to the irreversible climate change unless the world leaders would adopt a tangible policy that would be adopted worldwide to arrest the growing concern of climate change in the coming years.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, one of the participants of the climate change summit, is insisting that the talks about “climate change” should end in “legally binding agreement.”

Leaders around the world have expressed the alarm about the danger of climate change in response to reports that the carbon dioxide level of the Earth’s atmosphere has exceeded the 400 parts per million level in the early 2015.

The World Monitoring Organization (WMO)

The countries now involved are America, Russia, Iran, Jordan, Turkey, Gulf states, the Hezbullah, ISIS, Kurdish, the Rebels, Jihadists, etc. To make a story short, everywhere you look are explosions, firepower, bullets, gun fires, etc. Conflagration to your left, front and every space is smoky battleground. There is a full blown war participated by so many allies on both sides.

In the other aide of the world in turmoil, Turkey has just shot down a fighter plane of Russia reportedly for its violation of an airspace. Russia and Turkey had been at odds for some time now. What is fearful is if Russia retaliates, Turkey will be at the receiving end.

But considering that Turkey is a member of NATO which comprised nearly all of European countries as well as America, it is easy to predict a big war will surely ensue--I mean World War 3. No NATO member will just watch Turkey being attacked by Russia.

Think A Minute

Jhan Tiafau Hurst

Give to live THINK a minute.

You may have heard the saying, “Joy shared is joy doubled.”

Giving isn’t a sacrifice, it’s an investment. We actually get back much more than we give. So don’t give until it hurts, give until it feels good.

The American President Calvin Coolidge said: “No person was ever rewarded or honored for what he received. Honor is always the reward to people who give.”

What you and I do just for ourselves dies with us.

What we do for others lives on even after we die. So it’s smart to invest in the success of others. “It’s when you help someone else up a mountain that you yourself end up closer to the top.”

The principle of giving is simply a law of life that works. Just like money can only get good things for you when it is used and circulated. But if you do not use your money or give it away, you can’t get any enjoyment or thing of value out of it.

It’s only when you give out that you make more See give, page A11

Undeniably, there is now a huge and very big number of Filipino voters who are giving Duterte not only their votes, but even their time, money, and effort, just to make sure that the long-time Davao City mayor is elected president in the upcoming national political exercise.

The outpouring and manifestation of support

for Duterte, who became well-known for running his city with iron-fisted policies and tough anticrime campaigns, is nothing short of phenomenal. It is stupendous, even, considering that Duterte has not had a previous national exposure, unlike candidates Mar Roxas, Jojo Binay, and Miriam Santiago.

CAGAYAN de Oro City–– Until the power transmission lines are secured, the entry of new power players would not improve the energy situation in Mindanao, a firm tasked to transmit power in Mindanao said on Tuesday.

Beth Ladaga, of the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP), said that the energy situation will not improve if there are no transmission lines to deliver the new capacity to the distribution utilities and household consumers.

Ladaga was referring to various transmission lines that crossed along farm lots in Lanao Del Sur that have remained vulnerable due to trees planted by landowners who wants payment at exorbitant rates.

She cited the case of a certain Balao Pundag who has planted 1,500 trees

Ladaga said the NGCP has been negotiating with Pundag for the past 16 months in the hope the maintenance crew could enter the lot area and clear the trees that poses danger to the power transmission lines.

The NGCP has expressed the willingness to pay PHP 77, 750 for the 1,500 trees in its prevailing market and assessed value. However, Pundag wants a PHP 478,650.00 payment for the trees, the NGCP said.

Simple tool to rescue vanishing reefs A SIMPLE nail, wire and glue tool may yet fix and save the country’s fast disappearing coral reefs.

Coral fragments are tied with plastic cable wires to a four-inch concrete nail embedded on reefs and put in place with epoxy. There

they grow and rehab dying corals.

“It’s a very simple technology,” said Prof. Concepcion Portugal of the Mindanao State University (MSU) in General Santos City, the Program Leader of an ambitious project to

transplant 185,000 coral fragments in 10 sites nationwide.

The 30,000-target in Sarangani and Bohol is about to be completed; 70 percent of the target for Camiguin and Zamboanga is completed; half is done in Subic;

and on-going in Pagudpud and Bagac, Ilocos Norte, Alaminos in Pangasinan and Puerto Princesa in Palawan.

Paris climate talks spew 300,000 tons of CO2

MOSCOW--The Paris climate summit has drawn leaders from all over the world, seeking a solution to curb global warming. But doing the math, the summit itself could release hundreds of thousands of tons of CO2 in the atmosphere, all for talks which may ultimately prove ineffective.

Between diplomats, delegates, aides, activists, journalists, NGOs, and even high school students, over 50,000 people will be in attendance for the Paris climate summit that began on Monday. With attendees from 195 countries, the talks will hopefully lead to the establishment of an international agreement for how best to combat the threat of climate change.

But bringing that many people together from all corners of the globe comes at a hefty cost. As Wired Magazine points out, the CO2 emissions from travel alone will be enormous.

When taking into account all of the far-reaching cities from which attendees are travelling, the average distance per traveler is roughly 9,000 miles. Most of those journeys will be taken by airplane, which means when making a conservative calculation, 27 million gallons of jet fuel will be used to ferry individuals to and from Paris.

“When burned, every one of those 27 million gallons of jet fuel releases about 21 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Added up, all those planes flying to the Paris climate talks will release about 575 million pounds of CO2,” Nick Stockton writes for Wired.

That may be a fraction of the carbon emissions released annually -- which roughly equals 80 quadrillion pounds -- but it’s still hard to overlook the irony, especially given that the talks may, in fact, accomplish very little.

Any deal reached would undoubtedly rely on the cooperation of the United States, one of world’s largest emitters of greenhouse gases. But with a large number of US Congressional lawmakers still refusing to even acknowledge the existence of man-made climate change, any agreement will likely see pushback in the Republican-led Senate.

While Obama has pledged to use an executive order which could circumvent Congress, some Senators are skeptical of that plan.

“Should the negotiations produce a more substantive outcome as European delegates announced, then there is no way around the Senate,” Republican Senator Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma told the Washington Post.

“I would urge caution in considering any diplomatic promises that may suggest otherwise as the president is once again attempting to make international promises he cannot deliver.”

Others have expressed concern that any agreement would be difficult to implement. Without real penalties for breaching the accord, countries would have little incentive to actually follow along.

“What does legally binding mean in an agreement that is not going to have financial penalties for noncompliance?” Paul Bledsoe, a former climate policy aide in the Clinton White House, told the Post. “In the World Trade Organization, it is hard enough -- and that does have penalties.”

In light of these facts, maybe a global, 50,000-person conference call would have been more appropriate.

ensures that the program provides everyone the opportunity to be heard especially in making decisions for his/her community; this includes decision by the IPs. The social safeguards of the program also ensures that any sub-project decided upon by the community, which will be built or implemented within ancestral lands protected and possessed by IP groups would come with an approval from the IP group and their leaders. In this way, the path towards empowerment and progress do not trample on other people’s rights.

The training was facilitated by Ms. Leslie Robles, National Social Safeguards Specialist, Ms. Didith Bosoen, Safeguards Officer, Ms. Jane Austria-Young, IP Specialist (Kalahi-CIDSS National Program Management Office), and Dr. Randy Rosas, National Commission for Indigenous People (NCIP) – Provincial Officer for Agusan del Norte.

DSWD Caraga Assistant Regional Director for Operations Mita G. Lim reminded the participants, especially those ACTs working with IP communities to be very sensitive to the needs of the IPs. “Community empowerment and development will only be achieved through an inclusive approach to towards progress. No one should be left out in promoting the development programs and services of the Department,” Lim said.

With the said training, field workers will equip themselves of the necessary skills on how to communicate and convey the program to the IP communities. This will ensure IP’s active participation in the decision making and sub-project implementation of Kalahi-CIDSS, and guarantee that IP rights, culture, and their tradition will not be brushed aside. ###(MARKO DAVEY D.

Biblical reflection

You are good at the start only The Gospel of Jesus Christ (December2, 2015-Wednesday) John 21:1-14” They said to him, “We will also come with you.” They went out and got into the boat; and that night they caught nothing.

But when the day was now breaking, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples did not know that it was

Jesus. So Jesus said to them, “Children, you do not have any fish, do you?”

They answered Him, “No.” The easiest thing to do if you are frustrated is; to keep away from the reality.

Some isolate their lives from the crowd and some committed suicidal acts. We can notice that some Jesus disciples went back to their

The advantages of K to 12

By Lourgen D. Alfeche Teacher – III Paitan, Quezon, Bukidnon

The trend nowadays is all about advancement. People go high and low to acquire the highest. That is the reason that human capital of a country should be in quality kind in order to meet the competition, especially in global arena.

Education plays a big role in producing quality human resources. It is the learning that identifies skills, intelligence and talents.

It is knowledge that makes a man recognize what assets are there that he has, which could be useful tools towards self-improvement.

Moreover, it is education that enables individuals to be masters of respective crafts and be at par with others.

For a country that aims for progression, education should be an area of investment. This is why Philippines has implemented the K to 12 Basic Education Program. It is a system that follows the Kindergarten plus 12 years

Because of their disappointments and frustrations with the death of their master- Jesus, they gave up their interest to follow the footsteps of Jesus to catch the souls of the people. Sometimes we have the same mentality with these disciples since education cycle, replacing the old 10-year system.

This 12 years of learning is composed of six years in elementary level, four years in Junior High School and an additional two years for Senior High School Program.

K to 12 addresses the gaps found on the old system.

For example is the Senior High School Program that is absent before. This program allows learning that best fits the interests of the students.

They can choose on different tracks that include academic, sports, arts and design, and technical-vocational livelihood education. The choosing of any of these specializations would give students the idea on what area they want to enroll and on which among these specializations they are excel-

that is God instruction for your life on this earth. Do not quit along the way but persevere until your last breath.

ling at. This is very helpful especially if they want to pursue college education, or go into entrepreneurship or employment world after high school graduation.

K to 12 advocates advanced learning. It offers a kind curriculum that gives out theories and application within an adequate period.

It is a big help especially for higher education institutions for they do not have to conduct reviews to subjects covered before, thus giving spaces to a more comprehensive and useful subjects in college.

K to 12 is a system that this country has been waiting for. Each one is targeting successes midst difficulties.

K to 12 is a strong bridge that realizes dreams and brings competitive Filipino people to any challenging arena.

The importance of instructional materials is that they can be used to explain our points, reduce abstractions, create reality, and encourage active participation of the students’ engagement to learning. The key reasons why teachers wish to produce their own teaching materials is that they can contextualize to match or fit the cultural or educational context of the school or to adapt the teaching materials to their own pace of learning and the learning environment to overcome the lack of fitness of the resources available. Another reason of teachers in producing their own materials is that they could address to the individual need of the learners because teacher-designed materials can be very responsive to the diversity of individual learners within the classroom, teacher -produced materials provide the opportunity to select texts and activities at exactly the right level for particular learners to ensure appropriate challenge and level of success. And another key reason that authors identified for the reasons of producing their own materials is that they can personalize which provides them the opportunity

to add their personal touch to teaching that students are likely to appreciate, and thus tap the interests of learning styles of students to increase motivation and active engagement in learning process.

Teacher-designed materials could also respond to local and international events with the up-to-date, relevant topics and tasks as the advantage of timelines. Aside from the advantages of the teacherproduced materials, there are also disadvantage like the lack of organization of content, the quality of material, and lack of clear instructions. As a teacher, we must know that the success of the learning experience depends on our knowledge on the effective application of teaching aids so as to suit with the interests of the learners and with the appropriateness of the instructional tasks. A teacher should be conscious of the disadvantages and advantages of their own produced instructional material with the factors and guidelines that need to be considered in designing effective teaching materials. The use of the resources and teaching aids should reflect the aspect of lifelong learning and the learners’ total environment.

Reefs... from page A8

one percent of coral reefs are in “excellent” condition, meaning they still have 75 percent to 100 percent of live, hard coral cover. That’s dismal against the 27,000 square kilometers of reefs left in the country.

To reverse the tide, the National Program on Coral Restoration collected broken or dislodged fragments that fall when the branching Acropora coral species are damaged.

“We can rehab coral reefs if coastal local governments declare and properly manage at least 15 percent of municipal waters as protected, no-fishing zones,” said Vina Salac of the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (PCAARRD) which funded the program.

The fragments collected from the sea floor must measure at least four inches; longer ones are transplanted directly. The 4-inch “Corals of Opportunities” or COPs are transplanted in coral nurseries and allowed to recover for two-months.

They are later harvested and transplanted to coral substrates using the nailwire-epoxy tool.

To ensure that COPS remain erect, plastic cable ties the fragment securely to the nail; an epoxy putty applied to the fragment base ensures that it remains in place.

This is where the hard work comes: only trained and licensed divers are allowed to do the job, and that means training villagers, some of them women.

They are also taught basic coral biology.

A previous study has shown that the fragments grow 0.8 centimeter a month, said Dr. Samuel Gulayan of Bohol Island State University (BISU) whose project in Anda, Bohol, transplanted 30,000 fragments.

“That’s faster than other species of corals,” said Portugal.

So far, 122 villagers (about three of 10 are women) have been certified as licensed divers. They were taught transplanting techniques, without which they could do more damage to reefs. While not tending to the fragments (a volunteer work), they can freelance as dive and ecotourism guides.

It costs P4 million to rehabilitate each one-hectare site, including site identification, public consultations and training. It’s a small bill to bring back fisheries – and livelihoods.

Fisherfolk are allowed to fish outside of restoration sites that are all inside protected areas, marine parks, sanctuaries or reserves where no fishing and human activities are allowed except for ecotourism and research. Reefs harbor highvalue fishes like groupers or lapu-lapu. The fisherfolks get their livelihood as fishes

migrate from the marine sanctuaries.

Recruits (or fish that visit coral reefs) are seen after just two months, said Dr. Facundo Asia, a marine biologist at the Mariano Marcos State University in Batac, Ilocos Norte whose project in Pagudpud targets transplanting 10,000 coral fragments. SciencePhilippines

volt: And Filipinos believe, rightly or wrongly, that only Duterte can put a stop to this crime and criminality, and that only he can neutralize individuals or groups in the government and in the private sectors who either condone or encourage lawlessness, graft, and corruption, given his own experience in Davao City.

Therefore, those who wou l d w ant to d e r ai l Duterte’s candidacy by disqualifying him, for any reason, from running for president, should better be warned not to attempt any silly maneuver against his candidacy for the highest office of the land.

With the prevailing mood of many Duterte supporters today, any disqualification of Duterte will never be acceptable, and could even provoke his supporters into fits of violence that could spark a truly bloody revolution that may yet fully destroy the country and its people.

Forewarned is forearmed!

Otherwise, the Philippine government would put a stop in the construction of “coal-fired power plants” in the country. Who would protest construction of the multi-billion coalfired power plants when its stakeholders are willing to spend “lobby (grease) money” to pursue the project at their own behest?

In Misamis Oriental, there are about four coalfired power plants (including the existing Steag coalfired power plant), which are expected to operate in the next three year-period.

While the ordinary citizens are protesting the construction of these “coal plants,” the local government units are defending its construction. What protest and resistance could an ordinary citizen do when the very officials that would defend their interests are the very the same officials who insist that the “coal plant” is good for the economy? As usual, it is revolting that we have local government officials who see only what is best for their “pockets” than the from page A4 room inside to receive. interest of the people. -0You know that the Dead Send comments/reactions: crisguardian@yahoo.com Sea is dead because it only receives and never gives.

as a substitute for Martin Dino of the Partido ng Demokratikong Pilipino (PDP-Laban) last Friday.

His daughter Sara, vice mayor from 2007 to 2010 and mayor from 2010 to 2013, filed her COC as his substitute candidate for mayor after he withdrew his COC for what would have been his eighth term as the city’s chief executive.

His eldest Paolo is seeking reelection as vice mayor.

The patriarch was elected mayor from 1988 to 1998, representative of the first district from 1998 to 2001, mayor again from 2001 to 2010, vice mayor from 2010 to 2013. In 2013, he was elected mayor for the seventh term, with son Paolo as vice mayor.

A p e t i t i on a g a i n s t Duterte’s presidential bid was filed before the Commission on Elections in Manila also on Friday.

“It’s destiny. If it’s not yours and God will not give the Presidency to me, fine. There’s no problem. If they will disqualify me, it’s okay with me, go ahead,” he said in mixed English and Cebuano.

“I will retire for good.

I will not intervene in the city’s politics. I will leave it to Inday (Sara) or Pulong),” he added.

She said up to the last minute, Sara was reluctant to run for mayor “so I convinced her to run for the best interest of the city,” he added.

He said Sara knows his “secrets” on how to handle situations and how to run the city, having had served as mayor. He said his eldest son Paolo, the incumbent vice mayor, needs more experience in running the city and may be ready after one term. (Antonio Colina IV / MindaNews)

“It is sad to think that for years, both the government and private sectors have been working together to invite power stakeholders to build new sources of energy in Mindanao in order to address the island’s power deficiency,” she said.

She that the NGCP has been working to ensure that the facilities necessary to connect these plants to the grid are already in place by the time these power plants are ready to operate.

However, if our transmission lines become nonoperational because some landowners are preventing the NGCP from properly maintaining the power lines, then Mindanao will continue to be plagued by power interruptions in the future, Ladaga said.

a two-storey Presidential Suite, includes Commissioner Rainer B. Butalid, Marawi City Mayor Fahad “Pre” Salic, Maguindanao Electric Cooperative (Magelco) General Manager Sultan Anshary Maongco, Vice Governor Arsad Marohombar, and the members of MRHI board of directors.

Ms. Er ma Mar iano, food and beverage manager, said that the MRHI is a resort hotel with many distinctive features.

Among its features, Mariano said it is overlooking to the wide expanse of the legendary Lake Lanao, the largest fresh water

lake in the entire Philippine Archipelago, and the beautiful scenery of the Islamic City of Marawi, the City of Royal Hospitality.

“Truly MRHI is a Home away from Home,” she added.

She explained: “ The Mar aw i R e s or t Hote l, Inc. Has another story.

Although the principal stockholders are government instrumentalities and a financial institution, nevertheless it is engaging in purely proprietary functions. It does not receive government subsidy. Yes, the stockholders are the Southern Philippines Development Authority, The Mindanao State University, the National Power Corporation, and the Amanah Islamic Investment Bank.”

“M R H I is one of a kind,” said Mariano, adding, “in this hotel, you find some sort of a social engineering--a laboratory on the so-called unity in diversity.”

Mariano said: “It proves that despite cultural and religious dissimilarity, we are all Filipinos having only one mother to serve, to love and to protect--the Republic of the Philippines.”

“To cite an example is the case of the MRHI Food and Beverage Division.

While I am the manager, a non-Muslim and my cashier is a Muslim lady, the production and service employees are mixed, some are Christians and some are Muslims. At work, it is hard to distinguished--‘which is which’--hand in hand and together they work in harmony as brothers, to serve the patrons by self-sustaining and selfdevelopment,” she said.

“And I say this with authority, an eyewitness account. I have been with the Marawi Resort Hotel, Inc. for more than 26 years.

Yes, the buildings are all of “old vintage,” she said.

“Fortunately, during the stewardship of Sultan Yahya Jerry M. Tomawis, two new buildings were constructed, the Kalimodan Hall and this Bongalow-the ‘Presidential Suite’ which we are inaugurating today,” Mariano said.
