Protesters barricade Davao City highway for six hours to push for gov’t response DAVAO City -- A protest action along the Davao-Butuan highway in Panacan fronting the entrance of the Eastern Mindanao Command (EastMinCom) caused a sixhour gridlock as hundreds of protesters from militant groups and Lumads (Indigenous Peoples) barricaded the highway’s four lanes, blocking traffic flow to and from the city, to call on the national government to, among others, pull out troops from Lumad schools and communities in Compostela Valley, Bukidnon, Davao del Norte and Agusan del Sur. Protesters, among them Lumads (indigenous peoples) from these four provinces who sought refuge in the Haran compound of the United Church of Christ in the Philippines in downtown Davao City, farmers, small miners and members of militant groups barricaded four lanes starting at 9:30 a.m. but by 4 p.m. occupied only two after Mayor Rodrigo Duterte, who is on a Presidential campaign sortie in Luzon, asked

organizers to free the lanes to allow passage of thousands of stranded commuters.

The barricade ended shortly before 8:30 p.m.

City Administrator Melchor Quitain arrived at around 12:15 noon and got Mayor Duterte on the phone to speak to Kerlan Fanagel, chair of the Pasaka Confederation of Lumad Organization in South Mindanao Region.

Fanagel said the mayor promised to air their concern to the national government.

He said protesters are demanding the pull out of troops from Lumad schools and communities; disarming of paramilitary groups; indemnification and safe return of evacuees to their communities; indemnification, rehabilitation and rebuilding of damaged schools; arrest of soldiers who violated human rights; and end to vilification, threat and political harassment; dropping of all trumped-up charges; revocation of all large-scale foreign mining firms’ exploration and operation permits,

and removal of North Cotabato Rep. Nancy Catamco as chair of the House Committee on Indigenous National Cultural Communities and Indigenous Peoples.

Fanagel said a representative from the Department of Education was on its way to the rally venue. He said they want DepEd to lift Memorandum 221 which he said allows military encampments in schools in Compostela Valley, Davao del Norte, Bukidnon, and Agusan del Sur. He said they will continue their barricade and warned of closing the two lanes again, if no DepEd official shows up.

As of 6 p.m., no DepEd official arrived at the barricade site.

By 8:30 p.m., the protesters left after a dialogue with Janette Veloso, DepEd regional chief on Curriculum and Learning Management Division.

Why all lanes?

Fanagel appealed to the public to understand them because “we are fighting for our rights.”

Affected residents phoned radio stations and posted on Facebok to complain about the gridlock, The general sentiment aired was that protesters have rights to be protected but so have commuters. Many criticized the organizers for occupying all four lanes while others lambasted traffic enforcers for not acting quickly.

Passengers on the way to the airport also complained of missing flights due to the traffic while some were seen disembarking from non-moving vehicles to walk with their luggage to the airport.

“Hasol kaayo pero katungod

nila nga gipasibaw sa ilang gibati” (It’s so inconvenient but it is also their right to protest), commuter Leoniza Covero said.

Dionesio Claro said he was supposed to fetch his child from a school downtown but could not find a ride due to the traffic.

He admits he was disappointed but understands the protesters’ need to seek responses Drivers of jeepneys that brought protesters from Haran compound to Panacan, said their agreement was supposed to be for half a day only, up to 11 a.m. “Paabot lang kung kanus-a mahuman ang ingon sa

amo. Walay paniduto og walay pameryenda” (We were told to wait until it’s over. We were not given lunch and snacks), said one of the drivers. He said 14 jeepneys were hired to ferry the Lumads from Haran to Panacan and back.

The Eastern Mindanao Command in a statement said they respect “every Filipino’s freedom of expression, foremost, we will always respect and uphold the rights of the Lumads and will continue to be your partner in sustaining the gains of all our peace and security efforts.” (Antonio L.

IN the wake of the recent debacles in the banana industry in Mindanao and other parts of the country, it is high time that a National Banana Research Center be established.

Present statistics show that the country’s banana industry is worth some US $720-million annually, and provides employment to about 240,000 workers and contributes P830-million in taxes to local government units.

The research center would promote the socio-economic development of Mindanao and the country as a whole.

The establishment of this research center must be pursued because 13 out of the 26 provinces in the South, including Muslim areas, are dedicated to banana production. Mindanao is home to about 81 percent of the country’s banana production and generated export income largely from exports.

The data from the Mindanao

of banana diseases.”

The Panama disease, also known as fusarium wilt, has been dormant for about 50 years, but a virulent strain has now reappeared in plantations in the Philippines, having spread from Australia to countries in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. This type of disease could also spread to other banana varieties, threatening the livelihoods of thousands of farmers in the country, The proposed research center is a specialized banana research entity, which shall be responsible for the conduct of comprehensive studies and scientific approaches to sustainable banana farming argued the proponents..

We believe that the establishment of a banana research center is the first concrete remedy towards addressing concerns such as prevention of diseases that infest banana fruit, improved farming techniques and post-harvest practices as well as the exploration of potential banana varieties.

Development Authority, which show that the industry pays the 240,000 workers some P21-billion in wages each year and pays almost P900-million in taxes to local governments is gargantuan to handle, and must need a supervising office such as the proposed national center.

LGUs should also recommend the approval to the establishment of the center since the banana industry pays almost P1-billion in local taxes each year for business permits, real estate taxes, and other fees on top of the P900-million in taxes paid by contractors and suppliers.

The banana industry also supports 30,000 Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs) and small landowners under various contract-growing or lease arrangements.

The CYNOSURE

Cris Diaz

War is manifested by the ongoing ‘pocket of wars’ around the world,” the Pope said.

The conflict in the Middle East countries of Syria, Iraq and Turkey started with the birth of the Iraq-Syria Islamic State (ISIS) whose “hard core” wanted to reestablish the Caliphate in the Arab world.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, one of the ISIS leaders, declared the abolition of the borders of Syria and Iraq, which paved the way to the

creation of the “Caliphate.”

Baghdadi declared himself as the “Caliph-at-large” by “order of God,” and the “successor of the Prophet Mohammed.

The historic declaration reportedly occurred on the first day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan of the year 1435 AH (2014AD).

Baghdadi sought to abolish all other Muslim faiths with the ISIS as the only recognized believer in a move to create a “global Islamic caliphate.” Baghdadi, however, was killed in a coalition air strike in November 2014. That is as far as the conflict in the Middle East and Egypt is concerned.

In Southeast Asia, the aggressive character of China to claim ownership of the entire South China Sea – with due disregard to the territorial rights of other Asian countries also jitters a notion of a possible “flash point” in the region.

The situation in Asia is

Happy Easter!

TO die is to live! We are always shocked when in the middle of our surroundings, somebody passes away. Our usual questions are: Why die so young? Why he or she? Why now? Natural reactions, indeed!

When old people die, some relatives or friends would say: It’s good for him or her. He/she has played his/her role in life and on earth already!. When longsuffering patients pass away, relatives and friends would say: It’s better. They will not suffer any longer!

When Jesus finally gave up His spirit on the cross after three hours of bitter agony, the Pharisees said: “Finally, that impostor is gone! He deserved to die that kind of death!” But for Jesus, dying was not the end of everything. It was the beginning of a new life. For three days after His burial, He rose from His grave on that bright Easter Sunday morning, Yes, resurrection means life. Symbolically, we see that Easter Resurrection of our Lord depicted in various

exacerbated with the threatening tantrum of North Korea, whose leaders had warned of its capability to fire the weapons of mass destruction against South Korea and the United States at short notice.

The United Nation and the United States had issued a sanction, which could prove egregious to the North Korea’s fledgling economy.

Even China and Russia have joined the UN in denouncing North Korea’s “nuclear adventurism.”

At one moment, Russia warned that it would attack North Korea, unless its leaders stop its “nuclear bullying.” In case of an armed conflict, the Sino-Soviet’s displeasure over North Korea might eventually change the balance of power in Asia. Ultimately, the realignment of alliances of forces would likely take place should Third World War takes place today. Send comments/reactions: crisguardian@yahoo.com

Uncontrolled emotion

God has given us a unique ability through the Holy Spirit . . . self-control.

Unfortunately, we do a not-so-good job of letting our emotions, finances, and appetite for food get the best of us.

Merely, shrugging our shoulders and accepting ourselves the way we are is not honoring to God. We should not allow ourselves to

be at the mercies of our uncontrolled emotions.

It is entirely possible to change.

After all, we can do all things through Christ.

The twenty-first literacy skills

By ARLYN P. BANGCONG T-III, Kibatang National High School

THE National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), an American professional organization dedicated to improving the teaching and learning of English and the language arts at all levels of education, defined literacy as “the collection of cultural and communicative practices shared among members of particular groups.”

According to the NCTE, the twenty-first century demands that a literate person possess a wide range of abilities and competencies--many literacies that are dynamic and malleable.

It said participants of the twenty-first century global society must be able to 1) Develop proficiency and fluency with the tools of technology, 2) Build intentional cross-cultural connections and relationships with

others so to pose and solve problems collaboratively and strengthen independent thought, 3) Design and share information for global communities to meet a variety of purposes, 4) Manage, analyze, and synthesize multiple streams of simultaneous information, 5) Create, critique, analyze, and evaluate multimedia texts, and 6) Attend to the ethical responsibilities required by these complex environments.

The rapid advances of modern technology and globalization have transformed the daily life and work of the people. In fact, mobile phone, computers, and even an Internet connection at home are becoming a neccessity nowadays.

In order to succeed in this world of new challenges, a

new set of skills is needed–– and this skills is collectively known as the 21st century skills. Many countries, including the Philippines, have developed the 21st literacy skills frameworks to address such emerging demand.

In the Philippines, the Department of Education (DepEd) has integrated such approach in the K+12 education reform agenda.

Likewise, the DepEd’s National Educational Testing and Research Center (NETRC) is working with a team from the Assessment Research Centre (ARC) and the Assessment Curriculum and Technology Research Centre (ACTRC), an Australian government funded research institution, to investigate the place of these skills and their implementation in the Philippines’ curriculum.

But to become an effective communicator, one must be advanced in reading, writing, speaking, and listening, Ms. Alber wrote.

In one of his speeches, she quoted US President Barrack Obama as saying: “[L]iteracy is the most basic currency of the knowledge economy we’re living in today. Only a few generations ago, it was okay to enter the workforce as a high school dropout who could only read at a third-grade level.

Whether it was on a farm or in a factory, you could still hope to find a job that would allow you to pay the bills and raise your family.”

In today’s world, being literate requires much, much more than the traditional literacy of yesterday, Ms. Alber opined.

Our school administrators are advised to study the needs of the kindergarten classrooms in their respective schools and coordinate with the kindergarten teachers because this will serve as their reference in planning for in-service training and other necessary interventions to improve the quality of instruction.

Our parents are advised to be participative and to be updated with the performance of their children in school and perform their duties and responsibilities in rearing their children in order to promote children’s total well-being. As first teachers of their children they can monitor their children’s progress and can pattern from the preschool teachers practices and use it as reinforcement

By AVITA Y. LIBARDOS– (GRADE –V) MASTER TEACHER –I , MAED ZUBIRI VILLAGE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL QUEZON –I DISTRICT

The Makeshift and the Newly Constructed Permanent Building of Zubiri Village E/S, Quezon-I District Zubiri Village Elementary School is a continuing/ developing school for a comfortable and conducive place for the teachers and pupils. We the teaching force together with our active school Principal Mrs. Victorina G. Baldoman of this school visualize that the school is in need of three makeshift classrooms. In this connection, we decided to construct a makeshift building. We solicited few amount from the private individuals, we also raised funds from school extra-curricular activities such as Lakan and Lakambini, Little Mr. and Ms. Santa, and homeroom donations from Grade IV and Grade V parents. The said makeshift classrooms are now used by the two grades. We give our thanks to all the people who gave

their support to make this project possible.

Luckily last August 2015, Zubiri Village Elementary School is also one of the recipients of one building with four classrooms .This is through the collaborative effort of the Department of Education thru the coordination of Department of Public Works and Highways. This is very useful for the pupils and teachers for a conducive learning environment.

Hopefully this building will be finished and can be used this beginning of the School year 2016-2017.

We, the school head, teachers, parents and the four hundred thirty two pupils in this school, would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the Department of Education and Department of Public Works and Highways who are helping one another to augment the problem of lacking classrooms. Mabuhay!

FAO, DA initiate use of drones for disaster risk reduction in aggie sector Pampanga––Drones were launched on March 17 to officially mark a joint undertaking by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Department of Agriculture (DA) to initiate the use of the technology for disaster risk reduction in the agriculture sector.

“The adoption of modern technologies in agriculture, such as the use of drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), can significantly enhance risk and damage assessments, and revolutionize the way we prepare for and respond to disasters that affect the livelihoods of vulnerable farmers and fishers and the country’s food security,” said FAO Representative in the Philippines José Luis Fernández.

As the country continues to increasingly experience the impacts of climate

FAO Representative in the Philippines José Luis Fernández and Director Christopher Morales of the Department of Agriculture - Field Operations Service launch drones that will support disaster risk reduction efforts in the agriculture sector.

change, which in recent years have manifested in the form of more intense typhoons, flooding and drought, improved capaci-

ties to generate accurate and timely data are becoming more vital. Such information that can be gathered through drone missions, can

support the preparation of early warning systems and farm-level advisories, which farmers and fisherfolk can use to make better-informed decisions in protecting their livelihoods. It will also contribute to the government’s response planning activities.

“With the use of a drone, a team of technical specialists can assess up to 600 hectares in one day, significantly accelerating the process of projecting the extent of damage that an incoming hazard may cause in agricultural areas, and quantifying actual damage after a disaster,” said Director Christopher Morales of the DA Field Operations Service.

In addition to assessments, data generated from drone flights will also be useful in the design of agricultural infrastructure support projects as well as environmental monitoring.

The FAO-DA initiative includes the use of drones equipped with photogrammetric and navigation equipment to allow rapid and reliable assessments.

These will be operated

by DA and FAO technical specialists, including agronomists, agricultural engineers, mapping and IT specialists and data science experts who are undergo-

ing a three-week intensive course with lectures, simulation exercises, actual flying and mission planning. The training also covers principles of professional use through safe, lawful, and ethical means.

“This initiative is a pivotal development that is fully aligned with our national strategy for disaster risk reduction and management for agriculture,” Director Morales explained.

While the Philippines is one of the most disasterprone countries in the world, it is also one of the most advanced in shifting from reactive emergency response to proactive risk reduction.

FAO and DA earlier tested the drone-based methodology through an earlier project funded by the European Commission Human Aid and Civil Protection Department (ECHO), which aimed to facilitate the consolidation of capacities for disaster risk reduction in agriculture in See SECTOR, page A11

Rabid dog bites 6 in Lumbia

By CRIS DIAZ Executive Editor

CAGAYAN de Oro City–– The dog that bit six men in the village of Lumbia here last week has rabies, the City Veterinarian reported.

Perla Asis, the City Veterinarian, made the disclosure after the Department of Agriculture (DA) released its findings Wednesday last week.

The DA conducted a complete laboratory examination of the “dog’s head,” which was brought for examination after the canine was killed by residents in Lumbia, Asis said.

She said that the City

Ve t e r i n a r i a n’s O f f i c e would conduct a massive anti-rabies vaccination in Lumbia next week.

“The City Vet is now preparing for the massive anti-rabies vaccination that would include all pets, including cats in Lumbia,” Asis said.

She said that the six persons who were earlier bitten by the dog had been injected with anti-rabies vaccine an hour after the incident.

According to the Asis, the six persons were taken to the animal bite section in the city hospital for treatment after they were bitten by the dog.

one of the six men who were bitten by dog showed a swollen hand because of the dog’s bite.

“I was immediately injected with the anti-rabies vaccine at the city hospital after the incident,” Montecillo said in reaction to the report that the dog that bit him has rabies.

Asis said that a person has to immediately get medical treatment if bitten by dogs or pets in order to avoid rabies infection.

“It would become medically irreversible if rabies gravely infect a person,” Asis said.

The six men killed one of the three “stray dogs” that the residents believed responsible for sucking dry the blood of the domestic pigs in the village two months ago.

Village residents had expressed the fears that the dogs were “ghouls” (bad spirits) out to hunt children and animals.

The City Veterinarian, however, said that the dog, killed three days ago, was an ordinary dog.

Asis allayed the fears of the residents ab out a “monster” or “beasts” lurking in the outskirt villages of Lumbia.

Pantawid Program: In bringing education closer to poor families

By Tessie B. Valencia Apyao Elementary School

The poor access to learning is a major problem in the Philippines. It is a factor that hinders individuals to be productive, pursue his dreams and have the chance to better his life.

Thus, the government is doing its best to provide programs in order to solve, not just this particular problem, but its main root which is poverty.

4Ps or Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program is the flagship poverty alleviation program of the Aquino administration.

It is a human development measure of the national government, in the lead of Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). In here, there is assistance or providing monetary support to extremely poor families to attend to their immediate needs. Moreover, there is also social development or breaking

the intergenerational poverty cycle by investing in the health and education of poor children.

In an article of Official Gazette, this alleviation program is patterned after the condition cash transfer (CCT) schemes in Latin American and African countries, that have been successful in elevating millions of poor people around the globe.

4Ps operates in all 17 regions of the Philippines and is serving 1,484 municipalities. Individuals under this program are identified through Listahanan or National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction.

For me, 4Ps is one of the best government programs producing evident results. From the time that it has been implemented, a lot of children coming from poorest of the poor families has graduated, which means that they can pursue higher learning and open wider opportunities.

Teacher’s Motivation-Performance Link Author: Cherrie Mae B. Sajulga Teacher I Zubiri Village Elementary School E-mail add: cherriesajulga@yahoo.com.ph

“Motivation can be defined as a factor that determines the direction and force of an individual’s behavior”. It can also be described as the inner force that drives individuals to accomplish personal and organizational goals.

Perhaps some say that salary is often enough to keep employees like teachers working for an organization, but it’s not always enough to push them to fulfill full potential. Herzberg’s theory emphasizes that while salary is enough to avoid dissatisfaction; it’s not enough to propel them to increase productivity and achievement. In fact, the output of employees whose motivation comes solely from salary and benefits tends to decline over time. To increase employees’ efficiency, one must turn to understand and respond to individuals’ internal and external motivations.

People are motivated by different factors that would that influence the motivation of the individual’s performance in the organization. According to Maslow, needs are the key factors that stimulate motivation of the individual. To create an effective motivation strategy, there is a need to understand that some of today’s employees are not looking solely for huge financial rewards from their career. They also look their jobs to provide social fulfillment, security means, and sense of identity such as the friendships, family support, community, flexible work, challenging work, etc.

As motivation is that something which gives an individual’s desire to perform activities in the workplace such as schools, it’s important for the super visors/principals to understand and create the effective motivators to motivate teachers to maximize

their ability towards their responsibilities. It is the responsibility of those who are in the high position to motivate their teachers to perform effectively as it will help increased productivity, quality and school’s success.

To attain long-term success, teachers must be allowed to identify their own goals and that must be aligned with the Vision, Mission and Core Values of the Department of Education.

As already implemented, teachers are required to commit to the tasks set in the Result Performance Management System (RPMS). It is through this timely tool that teachers can be given the chance to set their own goals. RPMS is also a useful tool to evaluate teacher’s performance within the school year. This can be a basis to evaluate on how motivated the teachers are when it comes to committing their selves to work.

While there are many theories surrounding the notion of motivation, two distinct areas of motivation are usually mixed. That is

I personally believe that motivation is significant because even people with the required knowledge, skills, and abilities will perform poorly if they are not motivated to devote their time and effort to work. Teachers have needs which the school must fulfill in order to avoid demotivation. When teachers lack motivation they tend to resort to antiwork behaviors such as absenteeism, negligence of duty, late-coming, failure to meet deadlines, display of open frustration and all these factors work negative to the performance and credibility of an organization such as the school.

I end this article with a suggestion that our organization needs to place all efforts to ensure that incentives such as intrinsic motivators, extrinsic motivators and performance management approaches are used in order to retain, attract, increase teachers efforts, satisfaction and commitment.

actions on correcting their attitudes for it is written in the bible, in Proverbs 23: 13-14, “Do not withhold discipline a child; if you strike him with a rod he will not die. If you strike him with the rod, you will save his soul from hell”. If we analyzed this, it is like just saying to lead children the right path, we should discipline him and part of that disciplining is to punish him. It is alarming that students nowadays show little value on values and education, and unfortunately most of the time, the blame is on the teachers.

Sad to note also, even the respect we should get from them are not given by our dear students. These are the reality that we should need to ponder on, or the better we should take action.

Last May 14, 2012, the

Department of Education issued the DepEd Order No. 40, s,. 2012 entitled “DepEd Child Protection Policy”. As it is stated in the Section 8, one of the duties and responsibilities of school personnel is to practice positive and non-violent discipline, as maybe required under the circumstances: provided, that in no case shall corporal punishment be inflected upon them. If in case, a school personnel or any of them prohibited shall be penalize in administrative proceedings. This law causes suing on the teachers and the worst expulsion from their work because even scolding a child for some infraction could be a child abuse. The student could say he was humiliated and that could be abuse already. Now, how can the teachers instil discipline among their students if a simple action of scolding

is already prohibited? You can’t blame then, why some of the teachers leave their students unknowledgeable. If some will say that this policy help the teacher develop better teaching strategies, then in what way? We had applied lots and lots of strategies, we take the pupil-centred idea, but the behavioural problems remain. It is said that this law foster better quality education, then I say it foster bitter quality education instead. We are not against the policy we are actually in favour of it but we are begging the Government to review the policy because we might create an ill-disciplined Filipino Youth. Our country is already at stake now, how much more in the near future, if today most students acted such vile actions? Maybe, instead that the youth are the hope of our nation, they could be a threat to the nation’s future.

“THE youth is the hope of our nation.” This was enunciated by our national hero Dr. Jose Rizal, a meaningful idiom which has been passing through our ears for years but seems to be the opposite of what is being painted of today’s youth.

Yes, the behaviours of who are called youth are deteriorating, teachers can affirm this. In a casual classroom scenario, brawling, cheating, yelling, are some despicable attitudes displayed by students nowadays. As a second parent, teachers are responsible in reshaping this kind of students’ behavioural problems. Every teacher wanted to make each of their student’s character as perfect as possible. That is why we imposed rules and take necessary disciplinary

Bongbong barnstorms western, southern M’nao Mindanao Daily News, Monday, March 21, 2016

“I was overwhelmed by the warm reception you gave me,” Bongbong Marcos told a gathering of women in Davao del Norte, “I thought I would lose my shirt!”

Arriving earlier than expected for a courtesy call on Governor Rodolfo del Rosario, Bongbong was taken to a women’s gathering at the RDR Gym beside the provincial capitol for an impromptu appearance. The vice-presidential candidate was mobbed by wildly cheering women.

That was just one of many high points during Bongbong Marcos’ “Unity Caravan” through western and southern Mindanao.

Earlier, Tausug leader Nur Misuari declared his support for the young Marcos. This is significant, considering the Misuari launched a rebellion against the government of Bongbong’s father decades ago.

At Zamboanga del Sur, Bongbong was endorsed

by Gov. Antonio Cerilles, Pagadian City Mayor Tata Polmones and all the local leaders of the province. He

The Church allowed converted pagans to retain the custom of egg during spring to symbolize germination of life, but not anymore to Ishtar, the goddess of Spring.

In most other countries, especially those developing rapidly, the ratio is 4,000 scientists per million.

The shortfall in scientific talent is alarming, said Marcos. “This is an indictment of those responsible for managing our educational system,” the vice-presidential candidate claimed.

The country has only 15 science-oriented high schools. All of those institutions are situated in the Metro Manila area. That leaves all the other provinces without facilities that might nurture young minds interested in science and technology.

Should he be elected vice-president, the young Marcos promises to devote effort towards dispersing science and technology facilities nationwide. “We cannot achieve national development,” he said, “with so few scientists.”

As far as he was concerned, Marcos says, the sheer lack of facilities to train young scientists is a serious and urgent problem.

was likewise endorsed by all the mayors of South Cotabato along with the mayor of General Santos City.

While visiting T’boli town, Bongbong was declared “Supreme Leader” by the tribal leaders. The town was established by former president Ferdinand

E. Marcos.

Bongbong won the endorsement of all the major leaders of the Davao Region, as he was so warmly welcomed in southern Mindanao that pundits are now speaking of a “Solid South” to complement the vicepresidential candidate’s

traditional “Solid North.”

Rarely has a national candidate mustered strong support in both the far north and the deep south of the archipelago.

The strong concentrations of voter support puts Bongbong’s candidacy on more solid footing than

his rivals.

Citing comparative data, Marcos pointed out that the Philippines has only 80
