Irrigation projects open 230 hectares to rice farming KORONADAL CITY, South Cotabato -- Some 230 hectares have recently been opened to rice farming following completion of irrigation projects, an official of the Department of Agriculture (DA) reported.

DA 12 Regional Executive Director Amalia JayagDatukan told farmers in a training on the construction of small-scale irrigation project (SSIP) here that

although such projects are not as expansive as dams, SSIPs contribute so much to the achievement of the goals of Food Staples SelfSufficiency Program of the government.

Rufus lineup, Oca’s tactical move THE announcement of Rep. Rufus Rodriguez to run for Mayor in 2016 under the Centrist Democratic Party (CDP) has completely changed the political geography of Cagayan De Oro City. We wrote in the past that if Rufus could not run for the Senate, the mayoral post is his only option.

We were not surprised by the move. In fact, everyone who keenly follows the unfolding of political events in the city expects the decision of Rufus. Actually, Rufus did not make any hint about his move because he wants to make the announcement during the filing of the Certificate of Candidacy (COC) next month.

There are insinuations that Rufus was compelled to make the announcement earlier than the schedule in order to catch the convention period allowed by the Commissions on Elections (COMELEC).

The COMELEC has set Sept. 12 until September 30 as “political convention” period. It is a time where the political parties are allowed to hold conventions in order to agree on the candidates

that would complete the political ticket.

Rufus is trying to beat the convention deadline in order to carry out his plan to form the complete political lineup before the end of September.

While the camp of former City Mayor “Dongkoy” Emano has already announced the possible lineup of the Padayon Pilipino, a regional political party accredited by the COMELEC, Rufus’ CDP political party has yet to identify the possible lineup of his ticket.

Who could be the possible lineup of Rufus? Now, many believed that Roy Raagas, a scion of a political family, in the city’s first district in Bonbon is shortlisted as a possible running mate of Rufus.

Raagas is a strong material for the vice mayoral post. He will provide a balance of power in the city’s first district. Being the incumbent congressman, Rufus has a stronghold in the city’s second district.

T h e ot h e r p o s s i bl e names in the shortlist as Vice Mayor of Rufus Rodriguez are City Councilor Candy Darimbang, and City

Councilor Roger Abaday.

Any of them: Raagas, Darimbang, and Abaday could be a material for Congress, too.

Thus, it would be a tossed between Raagas, Abaday, and Darimbang in either Congress or the Vice Mayor post under the CDP political party of Rodriguez.

Being identified with the Liberal Party, Rep. Rolando Uy, has no option but to align with Oscar Moreno.

The tactical alliance would compel Oca to pick Uy’s son “Kikang” as the running mate as Vice Mayor. Under a very awkward political condition, Moreno has no option but to pick “Kikang” as his running mate. The move is the only way to put up a fight in the city’s first district.

Moreno, however, is facing a very difficult situation to find a Congressional bet in the city’s second district. Unless, Edgar Cabanlas, who ran and lost the Congressional post in the 2013 elections under the LP, would run again, Oca could pick some of his losing “henchmen” to fill the slot.

Of course, everybody

The CYNOSURE

Cris Diaz

knows who these losing henchmen of Oca are. Most the losing henchmen have been hired as “Consultants.”

Has Oca violated any provision of the Omnibus Election Code on hiring people who lost in an election?

Under the Omnibus Election Code, any losing candidate could only be hired to a government post only after one year after losing in an election.

Anyway, nobody filed a complaint against Oca about this, which means that the Omnibus Election Code has allowed it, too. Otherwise, Oca would face more cases in the future. Send comments/reaction: crisguardian@yahoo.com

mismanagement of the coffers of the government.

If indeed PNoy is serious about his “tuwid na daan” why corruptions continue to persist in his government?

Infact, there is no need to wait for that “brave” someone to file graft charges against any corrupt goverbnment official. Just asked the Commission on Audit (COA).

Under the 1987 Philippine Constitution, the COA is tasked to examine, audit and settle all accounts pertaining to the revenue and receipts of, and expenditures or uses of funds and property owned or held in trust by, or pertaining to,

the government.

It is also tasked to promulgate accounting and auditing rules and regulations including those for the prevention and disallowance of irregular, unnecessary, excessive, extravagant or unconscionable expenditures, or uses of government funds and properties, and submit annual reports to the President and the Congress on the financial condition and operation of the government.

Did the PNoy government use it as an anti-graft tool?

Also PNoy’s tuwid na daan or daang matuwid failed miserably when it comes to passing the Freedom of Information (FOI) bill.

What is FOI? The proposed Freedom of Information (FOI) Act aims to mandate the disclosure of public documents.

The proposed bill also outlines the exceptions for public disclosure and the procedures for accessing public documents. That was how the government defined FOI. But FOI, until now, is still a draft under

the PNoy government. The FOI is still a “shit” of paper.

How many elections have passed that we hear a political aspirant talking about poverty, quality education, justice and peace.

Un l i ke R ox as, w ho vowed to continue PNoy’s lousy and ineffective tuwid na daan, another politician vowed to give the elderly a boost. Cake? Diaper? At least, something different.

During political rallies, I hope Roxas wont dare talk about PNoy’s tuwid na daan.

Well, in fairness to PNoy, his tuwid na daan is very effective against “WangWang.” Questions: What did PNoy and his bunch of cabinet officials do about housing, education, health, peace and order––and social justice?

I already had my own share of PNoy’s “tuwid na daan” and I had this saying from the web to combat my disappointments: “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice shame on me.”

According to my colleague, Mr. Felix Santillan: “Dili na tuwid na daan oy, kon dili tuwad na daan.”

Ahay!

Military ‘colluding’ with mining firms against Lumads?

A Catholic diocese said the government needs to get to the bottom of the alleged military harassment and killings of indigenous peoples in Mindanao— mining.

The Diocese of Tandag said only communities of Lumads who are fighting against mining were the ones “being hounded and intimidated” by a paramilitary militia group operating in Surigao del Sur. In a pastoral statement, the diocese firmly believes the violence against Lumads is something “that has been extensively planned.”

After all, he said, there are strong allegations that the military “are in collusion” with big mining companies that would like to expand their operations in Surigao del Sur. “Our indigenous peoples who, ever since, have been one with nature, have lived in and survived out of their land of heritage, are now victims of those who are hungry of and greedy for power and wealth,” part of the statement read.

The diocese lamented

that Lumads who are the “heroes” in protecting the environment are now the ones in need “of our combined and continuing support.”

The church officials reiterated its call on the government to stop prioritizing supposed development projects at the expense of indigenous peoples’ rights.

“We all strongly condemn the terrorization, harassments, and the killings of our Lumad brothers and sisters as well as denounce the root cause of it all,” they said.

The church leaders also reiterated its appeal to local authorities to dismantle the “notorious” Magahat-Bagani force tagged in the killings of Lumad leaders.

Last January, an agreement was reached See MINING, page A11

By CRIS DIAZ Executive Editor

CAGAYAN de Oro City–– City Mayor Oscar Moreno dismissed his City Administrator effective Monday for alleged “loss of confidence” amid apprehensions that the City Executive has drawn axes to start a political reengineering in preparation for the 2016 elections.

In an order dated Sept.

14, 2015, Moreno told City Administrator Roy Raagas to immediately “clear yourself of accountability and responsibility effective Monday.”

In the same letter, Moreno chided Raagas for “discreetly and surreptitiously undermining his administration for several months now.”

He said that “your continued presence as City Administrator is treacherous and scandalous.”

Moreno has designated “Junie Gersana,” the assistant City Administrator, as acting City Administrator.

Raagas could not be reached for comment, but Gersana said that the city

administrator has been on leave for two weeks.

Raagas got the appointment as City Administrator when Moreno became City Mayor in 2013 as part of Moreno’s legal staff during the 2013 election period.

A veteran legislator, Raagas, a lawyer, served as a City Councilor during the term of former City Mayor Ambing Magtajas in the 90s.

The dismissal of Raagas has alarmed the rank and file at the City Hall amid suspicions that “politics” was behind one of the reasons that lead to the sacking of one the most qualified City Administrators here.

There were suspicions that Raagas attending the birthday bash of Rep. Rufus Rodriguez last Sunday might have triggered the ouster of the City Administrator.

Last Sunday, Rodriguez made an announcement declaring that he would run for Mayor in the 2016 Mayoral race here.

Rodriguez pronouncements sent shock waves to the rough political waters of Cagayan De Oro, which might have resulted in the

abrupt realignment of forces of the Moreno administration.

Moreno, who lamented, but respected the decision of Rodriguez, a strong political ally that helped him “won” the mayoral contest in 2013, has to adopt some counter measure to salvage

Notice

his fledgling political career.

Raagas was seen as the first casualty as reports of more heads to roll as Moreno adopts a strategic realignment to strengthen his political forces in preparation of the 2016 synchronized national and local elections.

Dabaonons told to conserve water

D

avao del Norte – Provincial Agriculturist Dr. Anastacia Notarte asked the people of Davao del Norte to conserve water in order to mitigate the effects of the El Niño phenomenon.

Even though Davao del Norte is not considered a high risk, the provincial government is not taking any chances with the looming dry spell that is forecast to affect 32 provinces toward the end of the year.

During the 2nd Provincial Organic Agriculture Congress last September 3, 2015, Notarte stressed every Dabaonon has a role to play, particularly the farmers, to mitigate the effects of the

dry spell.

“One should knowingly take notice how to conserve water. Our rice farmers, in particular, should always be observant if the rice paddies are already full. They should apply intermittent irrigation.

They should save water instead of disposing the excess water to the rivers,” Notarte said .

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) early this year identified the province of Davao del Norte as among those affected by the dry spell.

Notarte cited some measures implemented by her office, to include insuring

the rice farms, distribution of drought-resistant seeds, as well as, installation of water pumps that could irrigate ten hectares of rice land each.

The official further explained that a farmer should avail of the rice crop insurance given to farmers.

The program is a disaster preparedness program of the provincial government to mitigate the severe effect of El Niño.

She stressed that the insurance is a big help in case the rice cropping fails, especially that the indemnity could at least cover part of the losses.

She added a farmer can also utilize the fund to go for substitute crops for food sufficiency.

With the looming El Niño, Notarte now doubts whether the province can still sustain its food sufficiency level.

She said the 86 percent rice sufficiency of the province is expected to drop in case the dry spell prolongs, although Davao del Norte is belong to the mediumrisk vulnerability of El Niño compared to other provinces in the country.

At present, Davao del Norte is producing 4.47 tons of rice per hectare in all ecosystem as compared to the previous year that has a yield of 4.09 tons per hectare.

The El Niño phenomenon is an unusual warming of the sea surface temperature across the equatorial Pacific Ocean that results to extreme weather.

This would mean drought for the continents of Asia and Australia, while the other parts of the globe like the US expect more rains. (Noynoy Gorgonio/PIO)

New clinic strengthens fight against TB DAVAO ORIENTAL – Intensifying the fight against tuberculosis disease, a newly completed clinic for TB DOTS (Tuberculosis Directly-Observed Treatment Shortcourse) was recently launched at the Davao Oriental Provincial Medical Center (DOPMC) compound, bringing accessible treatment to tuberculosispatients here in the province.

Funded by the Department of Health (DOH) XI in joint partnership with Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP), the facility hopes to make a significant dent in the cases of tuberculosis herein the province and ultimately materialize the Provincial Government’s vision of bringing free TB DOTS Program closer to the people of Davao Oriental.

“With this facility we can cater many TB patients to avail free TB DOTS services,” said DOPMC Chief of Hospital Dr. Ariel dela Cruz.

DOH Region XI Coordinator for the National TB Program (NTP), Evelyn

Gelito said, based on the latest TB prevalence survey, thatmore than 30% of the presumptive tuberculosis patients opts a hospital consultation rather than going to health centers and most of these cases not being reported to the program. Making matters worse is that other patientsdo not seek proper treatment, thus,giving them no chance for a cure.

Gelito said that building this TB DOTS Clinic is a right move for the Provincial Government in its bid to win its long-running combat against TB. “We are very optimistic that more TB patients will be given more attention with this new clinic,” she said.

She further lauded the Provincial Government’s commitment to help the people of Davao Oriental in fighting TB as well as the eagerness of the staff who will operate the facility.

Dr. Joy Sanico of the Provincial Public Health Technical Division emphasized that building this facility See clinic, page A11

Data from the Philippines Statistics Office (PSA) 12 indicated that SOCCKSARGEN Region (Region 12) is the largest producer of rice in Mindanap.

SOCCSKSARGEN is also the 5th largest contributor to the national rice yield accounting for 7.1 percent of the national production.

The region has achieved 128 percent rice self-sufficiency level. (DEDoguiles/ PIA 12 with report from LMSalvo/DA12)

Datukan emphasized.

Construction of SSIPs in SOCCSKSARGEN Region started in 2011 with three projects worth Php 10 million download to local government unit beneficiaries.

Since then, Director Datukan noted, 25 of the 51 targeted SSIP projects have been completed at a combined total cost of Php274.1 million.

Some 5,315 hectares of rice production areas were provided irrigation through SSIP from 2011 until 2014, she added.

The administrator, who relayed the stand of the governor, said both Governor Pimentel and Bishop Nerio Odchimar

had remained steadfast in their common stand—to disarm and disband the Magahat-Bagani force.

Allegedly, members of said group, particularly siblings Bobby and Loloy Tejero as well as Garito Layno were behind the brutal murder of Emerito Samarca, Dionel Campos, and Bello Sinzo, respectively, the executive director of Alternative Learning Center for Agricultural Development (Alcadev), chairman of Malahutayong Pakigbisug alang sa mga Sumusunod, and a civilian.

The said incident had

triggered the mass evacuation of lumads from Kilometer 16, Sitio Hanayan, Barangay Diatagon, Lianga, 90 km. south, this city, and other nearby villages on September 1.

Rivas reported at the flag ceremony program on Monday that evacuees at the Surigao del Sur Sports Center had already been posted at more than 3,000.

Cases of multiple murder, arson, robbery, grave threats, and grave coercions had already been filed against the suspects and 20 John Does at the Prosecutor’s Office in Lianga town, according

Population of invasive starfish species increasing in Samal

By Antonio L. Colina IV of MindaNews

World ‘facing floods of new toxins’ THE world needs to prepare for a flood of potentially dangerous new pollutants, an international expert in environmental chemistry has warned.

Dr. Susan Richardson of the University of South Carolina will tell the CleanUp 2015 Conference in Melbourne that new contaminants, some of which are just as -- or more -- toxic than ‘traditional’ pollutants like heavy metals, are already finding their way into the world’s rivers, lakes, groundwater and drinking water.

The new toxins arise from sources such as artificial sweeteners, nanomaterials, perfumes, medical drugs, hormones, sunscreens, flame retardants, non-stick coatings, pesticide breakdown products, hospital wastes, and the by-products of detergents, disinfectants and swimming pool cleansers.

Left undetected and untreated, they can be hazardous to humans, with some already linked to conditions such as cancer, obesity, lower intelligence and infertility, Dr Richardson says.

“The world is no longer dealing with the ‘same old, same old’ contaminants,” she explains. “The list of new ones keeps growing, with ionic liquids and prions being among the most recent.”

Ionic liquids are used as “green chemistry” to replace traditional solvents

DAVAO City––The red tide alert covering Balete Bay in the northwestern side of the Pujada Bay, in Mati, Davao Oriental remains, the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Region 11 (BFAR-11) said.

During the Kapehan sa Dabaw at SM City Davao on Monday, BFAR 11 director Fatma Idris told reporters the red tide phenomenon is attributed to the sudden changes in temperature and siltation in the bay.

She added the phenomenon, also known as algal bloom, occurs when there is a large concentration of aquatic microorganisms called “dinoflagellates and the bloom takes on red or brown color.”

The red tide will not go unless the siltation, which triggers the recurrence of the phenomenon will be addressed.

“In the past, there has been red tide in Balete Bay but it recurs this year,” she added in a phone interview.

Idris advised local consumers to be vigilant in eating shellfish sourced from the Balete Bay, as this may result in paralysis, or worse, death, if consumed.

She clarified that consumers in Davao City need not to worry of the shellfish sold at wet markets as these are safe and sourced from Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur and Samal Island in Davao del Norte.

Other seafoods sold at wet markets are also safe, she added.

Operators of shimp hatcheries in the region are also encouraged to secure a health certification from the BFAR 11.

Idris said only five operators have so far been accredited to sell fries to the growers in the region.

“Those who are selling fries at cheaper cost baka meron sakit and

may affect other shrimps,” she warned.

The aquaculture industry, the official said, will take centerstage in the 17th Davao Agri Trade Expo on September 25 to 27, at the SMX Convention Center at SM Lanang Premier in cooperation with Davao City Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. and Mindanao Integrated Aquaculture Association.

BFAR 11 and MIAA wil hold a seminar on September 26 for those who want to learn about the opportunities in the aquaculture industry and in the upcoming Asean Economic Community which will take effect in December this year.

One of the topics will be the Post-Harvest Processing HACCP, or the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point.

MIAA president Dr. Alex Tan, who is also the chief of BFAR’s National Mariculture Center, will talk about bangus polyculture.

in cleaning products, but their effects are still largely unknown.

Prions -- molecules that are highly resistant to disinfection -- are known to cause ‘mad cow disease’, chronic wasting disease in deer and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease as well as kuru in humans.

“Algal toxins are also an increasing concern -- an algal bloom in Ohio, U.S., last year shut down the drinking water system for the whole city. Such blooms are expected to increase as more nitrogen makes its way into our wastewater and rivers,” she says.

Richardson explains that many of the new contaminants arise from common household products like cleansers and furnishings, personal care products, food packaging, and the medical as well as recreational drugs we excrete from our bodies.

“These products get washed off in the shower or flushed down the toilet and travel to wastewater plants.

Some of them become toxic once they react with the chlorine or chloramine with which the See FLOODS, page A11

Local control of forestry could significantly slow man-made forest loss, says new research

PUTTING control of forest land into democratic local businesses could significantly slow or even halt man-made forest loss, according to new research released on September 7 at the 15th World Forests Congress, held this year in Durban, South Africa.

The new publication Democratising forest business: a compendium of successful locally controlled forest business models – and linked briefing paper, reviewed and edited by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) for the Forest and Farm Facility (FFF) brings together 19 case studies from across Africa, Asia and South America.

The case studies show that in almost all contexts, countries and regions, lo-

cally controlled forestry (LCF) business models can not only exist, but work well, delivering greater social benefit and environmental protection than current standard multinational business models that solely use profit as a marker of success.

Duncan MacQueen,

IIED principal researcher and forests team leader said: “These businesses are capable of supplying produce to their own immediate local and national markets, as evidenced in the case studies. They also have the ability to feed upwards into the global supply chain.

Crucially they accrue profits

locally and are also better at maintaining flows of all the multiple other forest benefits that their member owners need – such as food, fuel, construction materials, clean water and so on.”

In developed countries the evidence for this model as a successful business approach is even stronger.

Sweden for example maintains 50% of its forest under local control (by cooperative businesses) and has amongst the highest forest cover in the world at 70% and the lowest social inequity as a result.

Given that forest loss and exploitation is taking place at a far greater and unchecked rate in developing countries, the researchers chose to focus on these regions as they hold the See FOREST, page A11

It is more blessed to give than to receive Special Gospel of the day (September16, 2015-Wednesday) Luke 16:19-31-There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and

Pantawid Pamilya beneficiary thanks DSWD for comfort after displaced from homes Tandag City -- A Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program beneficiary has praised the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) for coming to their aid when their family was in strife after displaced from their homes last September 1, 2015 after tensions between the New People’s Army and Philippine National Army intensified.

Julieta Bada, a mother of 5, and a resident of KM 14, Lianga, Surigao del Sur, has expressed her appreciation for DSWD, saying that in times of their hardship, the Department has provided their needs at the evacuation center in Surigao del Sur Sports Center, Tandag City.

“Pait pamalandungon nga nabiyaan namo among balay, kabtangan ug pan-

ginabuhian tungod sa problema sa siguridad sa amo, apan mapasalamaton kami nga maski anaa na kami dri, duna gihapoy tabang sa DSWD nga among nadawat (It is sad to think that we have been displaced from our homes, leaving behind our belongings and our livelihood because of the security issues in our community, but we are thankful that DSWD has provided us with the necessary assistance),” Julieta said.

She and her 5 children have been in the evacuation site for 10 days. According to her, they have been provided with food and non-food items that were enough for her family to last those 10 days, and that they were confident that DSWD will continue to provide for their needs in the upcoming days.

“Apan mapasalamaton kami nga maski anaa na kami dri, duna gihapoy tabang sa DSWD nga among nadawatan (But we are still thankful that even until here, DSWD has provided us with the necessary assistance) ,” says Julieta Bada, Pantawid Pamilya partner beneficiary and one of the evacuees currently housed in Surigao del Sur Sports Complex, Tandag City.

“Gihatagan mi nila ug uban sa mga sabon ug kimga gamit pangkatulog, nahanglanon sa matag usa kanamo. Kaduha napud mi nahatagan ug food packs, ug ganina gihataga sa amo Oftentimes, these will be sa taga DS ang donations sa the hindrance in reaching GMA (We were provided our goals that to some extent with articles for sleeping we tend to discourage and and toiletries for the whole opted to surrender. We need family. They have also given to fight for with a strong us food packs twice, and sprit of optimism in spite earlier, DSWD distributed of the hardships but we are donations turned-over to hopeful that one day we will them by the GMA Kapuso surpass all of these trials and Foundation).” Julieta added. finally we’ll succeed in our Despite the help they dreams in quest for a good are getting from DSWD life. Nothing is impossible and the different national if everything is entrusted to agencies, non-government GOD. But we need to toil organizations, provincial/ hardly as we soar our vision of pursuing our pursuits for a better life.

Therefore, the dream to have a better life is not by chance but a matter of choice and a personal desire.

Towards this end it is within us will determine what our future would be not from other people around us.

The way we orchestrate ourselves will influence and determine how strong we are in fulfilling our dreams of having a decent life.

Dream for a Better Life

By LELITA D. ALAVANZA Teacher-Ill/ Tubigan Elementary School

Life is like a journey in which for every step we made will leave a footprint that will determine our destiny. Indeed, the things we do will always influence our future that we long for. Accordingly destiny is a matter of choice not by chance. In other words, it is within us the desire of what will be our outlook in life.

As we walk through we will encounter many difficulties and obstacles that sometimes we think it is unbearable at some point tempted us to give up. But these are only part and parcel of the challenges that we will encounter along the way yet to fight and overcome in order to reach our fondest dreams in life.

We need to sacrifice too and really work hard in our quest for a better life if not it is difficult to get hold of a thing that we dream for.

Our actions, character and attitudes are the determinants in leading towards realizing one’s dream and ambition that someday somehow we will have a better life. I always believe that poverty is indeed not a hindrance but our behaviors always influence our decisions. It is only a matter of

choice on what we prepare for ourselves. Nevertheless, there are many men and women that are successful yet they are not born to be rich but the chemistry of positive attitudes leads them to have a wonderful life.

On the other hand, through education our life will change and bring us to prosperity. But in quest for this we will undergo a series of struggles because it is really hard to attain our goals especially if we are financially unstable. We need to work hard, sacrifice, save and double our efforts in order to survive. Moreover, the way we prepare for ourselves will determine our life in the future. It is indeed a high time to set our plans and put into actions yet be strong in fighting for the challenges that we will encounter along the way.

local government unit, she says that she could not get rid of the worries regarding their situation. The fact that they have left their homes, and that the latest news she had received was that their farm animals are gone, only adds up to the anxiety she feels.

DSWD will be there Amidst the distress they are in right now, Julieta is confident that the government, especially DSWD, will help them with their problems.

“Kabalo ko dili mi pasagdan sa DSWD. Hinaot nga sa among pag-uli,

matabangan gihapon mi sa DSWD sa pagpaayo sa among balay kay aduna kunoy mga guba tungod sa nahiyabong gubot. Kabalo ako nga tabangan mi sa DSWD sa among panginabuhian kay dunay daghan ayuda ang DSWD alang sa mga kabus nga susama kanako (I know the government will not abandon us. We hope that when we get back home, DSWD would be able to help in fixing our house since it was damaged when we hurriedly left. I know DSWD will help us with our livelihood because DSWD has a lot of programs and services for poor families like me).” Julieta expressed.

Julieta’s family is one of the 301 Pantawid Pamilya partner-beneficiaries among the 627 displaced families currently housed in the two (2) evacuation centers in Surigao del Sur.

most especially those at the Aldevinco Shopping Center that the selling of trumpet shells is prohibited, this being classified as an endangered species.

“Those who would try to take them outside of the city need to know that airport authorities will also confiscate them,” she added.

Avila added the coastal ecosystem needs balance but the population of crown of thorns and the lack of its natural predators has caused in imbalance that would endanger other sea creatures, most especially the corals where some of pelagic fish lay their eggs and the small ones take shelter.

The crown of thorns, which can grow about to 25-35 centimeters, prey on corals and absorb all their nutrients.

Corals take at least 50 years to recover, Idris said, citing this is why they have to control the population of the crown of thorns to prevent it from damaging the corals not only in Samal but also in other parts of the gulf.

Avila added humans also cause damage to the corals by throwing wastes into the sea.

“The destroyer is really the pollution. At least 80 to 90 percent of the pollution is the landwaste, 80 percent of which goes to the coral reefs,” he said, noting that the estimated volume of garbage dumped at sea is from 5 to 10 billions tons a year globally.

He encouraged Dabawenyos to participate in the International Coastal Cleanup, the biggest movement aimed at saving the marine natural resources, slated on September 19, 2015. All cities and municipalities in the region will participate in the event. (Antonio L. Colina IV/MindaNews)

water is treated,” she says.

“It’s bad news because our wastewater treatments, which are designed to remove ‘traditional’ waste, cannot treat these toxins efficiently. There is no onesize-fits-all way to clean up all of them.”

One example is the failure to remove NMDA, a carcinogenic disinfection by-product. “Reverse osmosis -- the same process that removes salt from water -- was used to treat NMDA, but the compound was so small that it passed through the filter. As a result, a half or less of the NMDA is removed.”

Currently, Richardson and her team are researching better ways to detect these contaminants. “As some of them are very difficult to treat, it may be more effective to remove the ‘precursor’ molecules before they can react with chlorine or chloramine in wastewater ponds and turn toxic.

“This means that we need to ‘catch’ them sooner.

“Meantime, the world needs to become much more aware of these emerging contaminants and actively look for them in our waters.

While we may not know the ill effects of some of them, it may be too late to stop those effects once they are unleashed.”

Richardson’s presentation “Emerging environmental contaminants and current issues” is on Tuesday 15 September at 8:30 a.m. in Crown Conference Center Meeting Room 12.

CleanUp 2015, the 6th International Contaminated Site Remediation Conference, is being held at the Crown Conference Center, Melbourne, from September 13-16, 2015.

The compendium’s business models offer an alternative approach to deliver sustainable use of the world’s rapidly disappearing forests, and offer some clear recommendations on how to create conditions that allow for a social and environmentally successful approach that also delivers a steady income to local communities and a supply of goods up the chain.

The researchers are calling on donor agencies to scrutinise their existing grant-giving in forest programmes, and help scale up the LCF models found within the compendium. They also call on governments to realise their responsibilities to their constituents and regain or retain control over forest land, to give over to locally controlled businesses.

In the last few weeks alone, there have been reports that humanity used up its 2015 ‘budget’ of natural resources in eight months, 4 a set of papers in Science5 documented a depressing picture of how we have fundamentally altered the world’s forests – warning of potential large-scale future declines in forest health unless current behaviours change, and research in Nature6 has shown that humans have almost halved the world’s number of trees from six trillion to 3.04 trillion since the dawn of civilisation. We are currently losing trees at a rate of 10 billion per year.

The researchers believe that unless locally controlled democratic business models become the new norm, the future of forests remain in jeopardy. Supply chains and infrastructure required by multinationals will be compromised as competition for resources grow, as will our collective survival.

is indeed very significant in treating this infectious disease, especially thatmulti-drug resistant cases of tuberculosis can occur if the patient neglects to seek proper medical care.

“MDR cases do not respond to conventional treatment and are very hard to treat,” she said.

Sanicosaid that the Public Health Office is incorporating sputum collection in their regular medical consultation and outreach programs as part of the efforts in accounting and treating TB patients in the communities. She said they have already started in Barangay Malibago in Cateel, as well as in the Provincial Jail, as mandated by Governor Corazon N. Malanyaon, in an effort to detect and reach all TB patients and treat them.

Sanico laid emphasis that treating this communicable disease requires concerted efforts of all health care providers, both in the hospital as curative and public health as preventive. “The

work here will always be integration. We will work hand in hand.”

“With this new facility we will be able to realize our goal of seeing more healthy people and put an end to the stigma of TB.” (PIO DavOr)

Killing... from page A1

reportedly killed by NPA rebels last Sunday.

The police investigators in Valencia City said that the victims were residents of the mountain village of Tandakol in Lilingayon, Valencia City, Bukidnon, who were hunting wild games for food when allegedly shot by the NPA rebels.

Datu Uba Lucbay Bayawon, the uncle of the victims, said that he suspected the NPAs as responsible for the killing of his nephews because of their refusal to join the rebel movement.

“The NPA have been recruiting us, especially these victims, for quite a time now. But we refused because we do not want to take up arms and fight the government. We only wanted to live peacefully in our ancestral land. This is the reason why the NPA rebels are furious about us because we do not want to support their armed struggle. The rebels even threatened to kill us,” Bayawon told the police.

Martinez said that the relatives accompanied by the police recovered the victim’s bodies who appeared to have been tortured around 5:00 p.m. Sunday in the forested area of Lilingayen with empty shells of AK-47 and M14 ammunitions beside their bodies.
