Taiwan eyes stronger relations with PH

By Antonio L. Colina IV of MindaNews

DAVAO C it y - - Tai w an wanted to forge stronger cooperation with the Philippines in various fields under incoming President Rodrigo Duterte, a Taiwanese envoy said Tuesday.

“I believe in Duterte leadership (that) your new administration will further continue to enhance and expand our cooperative and friendly relationship,” Gary Song-Huann Lin, who met with Duterte last Monday at the Malacañang of the South, told reporters on Tuesday in Davao.

He said the Philippines and Taiwan are “longtime friends” but he is hoping to strengthen their relationship in agriculture, aquaculture, education and other areas.

He said they are encouraging Taiwanese businessmen to visit the country to See eyes, page A11

Int’l communities laud Kto12 program

By GERALD LEIGH LAQUINON of PNA

CAGAYAN de Oro City-International communities have sent a message of appreciation to education officials in Northern Mindanao for the implementation of the “K to 12” program in the region.

Dr. Allan Farnazo, DepEd Regional Director, issued the statement Wednesday amid criticism by various sectors about the government’s K to 12 program allegedly being an added burden to the poor.

Farnazo said that students and teachers from Australia, South Korea,

Japan, and elsewhere in Europe sent congratulatory messages to officials of the Department of Education (DepEd) for implementing the K to 12 program in the region. “ T h e i nt e r n at i on a l community is thankful for the Philippine government’s compliance with international standard of education,” Farnazo said.

However, Farnazo admitted that they experienced some problems on the opening day of classes, particularly at the Iligan National High School in Lanao Del Norte where there was a See program, page A11

Fresh fighting erupts anew in Mis. Oriental

By CRIS DIAZ Executive Editor

MISAMIS Oriental -- Fresh fighting between the government troopers and the communist New People’s Army (NPA) erupted Thursday morning in the mountain village of Talisayan, east of Misamis Oriental.

A radio report monitored from here said that the firefight is still on-going Thursday morning in the hinterlands of Macopa, a mountain village of Talisayan, a coastal town 98 kilometers northeast of Cagayan De Oro City.

There was still no report of casualties in the Talisayan encounter, but the army’s 58 th Infantry Battalion confirmed that the government troopers who were on patrol encountered a group of about 10 armed men in the area Thursday morning.

Lt. Janielle Diaz, the spokesperson of the 58IB, said that the security and clearing operations are still ongoing in Talisayan.

The skirmishes occurred as a group of evacuees from the war torn villages of Kamansi and Banglay in the town of Lagonglong,

Misamis Oriental settled at the provincial capitol compound in Cagayan De Oro City asking for assistance from the provincial government.

About 60 families evacuated from their farming villages in Lagonglong after the government troopers and the NPA engaged in a running gun battle for several days last week where two suspected rebels were killed.

Nenita Helogon, secretary general of the tribal group Tagtabolon, said they have See fighting, page A11

Duterte to take oath in Rizal Hall No lunch but pritong saging will be served

By Carolyn O. Arguillas of MindaNews

DAVAO City--It will be a different kind of inauguration on Thursday noon, June 30, 2016, when Rodrigo Roa Duterte, the first Mindanawon to lead the country, takes his oath as the 16th President of the Philippines.

There will be no inaugural luncheon after Duterte takes his oath at the Rizal Ceremonial Hall in Malacañan Palace, Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go, Duterte’s executive assistant and incoming head of the Presidential Management Staff told MindaNews in a text message.

But there will be a “simple diplomatic reception” after the mass oath-taking of Duterte’s Cabinet and only “light finger food” such as pritong saging (fried bananas), biko and bibingka (rice cakes), will be served, Go said.

Instead of wine, guests will be served tablea (hot chocolate) from the worldfamous single-origin Malagos Chocolate in Davao City.

Go also said there will be a tour of the Presidential Museum and Library after the program and the President will not fly back to Davao City that evening but stay in Bahay Pangarap, presently the official residence of outgoing President Benigno Simeon Aquino III. Inaugurations mark the transfer of power from the incumbent President to the President-elect and are usually marked with pomp and pageantry. But Duterte is doing away with that by insisting on holding a simple inauguration within Malacañan, the official residence and principal workplace of the President of the Philippines.

In his campaign sorties, Duterte repeatedly said he would not have his inauguration at the Quirino Grandstand in Luneta, venue of the oath-taking of seven Philippine Presidents including outgoing President Benigno Simeon Aquino III. Quirino Grandstand was where Duterte held his miting de avance on May 7, 2016, two days before the

nation gave him a 6.5 million lead over administration bet Mar Roxas. Duterte’s miting de avance attracted the most number of supporters – by the hundreds of thousands — among the five Presidential candidates.

In the hinterlands of Tulunan, North Cotabato where he fetched an Army soldier held captive by the New People’s Army (NPA) on April 27, Duterte announced to a crowd of civilians and NPA combatants that if he wins the Presidency, the Filipino people should not expect him to have an oath-taking at the Luneta because he does not want to cause traffic and disrupt the lives of the citizens and because the traditional oath-taking would require him to feed the rich who do not need to be fed, anyway.

If he will have to spend, he said, he would rather that the money intended for the inauguration be used to feed the poor.

Tradition Duterte, however, will not be the first President to break from tradition. A review of past inaugurations show that the Presidentelect can decide how his/ her inauguration would be.

His predecessor, Aquino, followed the tradition set by those who preceded him but also built on the rites that marked his first day in office.

“Actually, a Presidentelect can theoretically do what he pleases because the Constitution only specifies taking oath at twelve noon and the text of the oath but nothing on where or how.

The only limits might be public expectations and of course the weight of tradition, Undersecretary Manuel L. Quezon III, officer in charge of the Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office (PCDSPO) said in reply to a query from MindaNews.

“Even in protocol we forget that as head of state, a President can redefine protocol: the only limit being whether such changes will alienate others,” said Quezon, a historian who, under the Aquino administration, made available online the Official Gazette and the

Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte, the first Mindanawon to become President of the Philippines, speaks at the 64th founding anniversary of M’lang in North Cotabato on August 3, 2015. He told the crowd that the next President of the Philippines would have to deal with the peace processes with the Moro people and the National Democratic Front but more than just talking peace, should understand the root causes of the conflicts and honor peace agreements.

Presidential Museum and Library containing documents and photographs of all 15 Philippine Presidents.

Quezon is also the grandson of the first President of the Commonwealth, Manuel Quezon.

According to “The Protocol, Ceremony, History, and Symbolism of the Presidential Inauguration” posted on the Presidential Museum and Library page of Malacanang.gov.ph, tradition dictates that the Presidentelect fetches the President from Malacañan Palace “which would, that day’s end, be his official residence and office.”

When the President-elect arrives at Malacan Palace, he pays a courtesy call on the outgoing President and together they travel to the venue of the oath-taking.

According to “The Protocol…,” this tradition of the President-elect fetching the outgoing President “dates back to the inauguration of President Manuel Roxas—the first transfer of power from an incumbent (President Osmeña) to a president-elect (Roxas), who was his rival for the presidency.” Roxas took his oath on May 28, 1946.

While still President-

elect on June 30, 2010, Aquino left his residence at Times Street in Quezon City at nine in the morning, fetched President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo from Malacañan Palace and together they traveled to the Quirino grandstand for the inauguration. Upon arrival at the grandstand, Arroyo was given her final military honors and departed for home.

When Arroyo left, the President-elect Aquino and Vice-President elect Jejomar Binay were escorted to the ceremonial platform by the Inaugural Committee headed by the Executive Secretary.

After the national anthem, ecumenical invocation and inaugural song, outgoing Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile read the Proclamation by Congress announcing the results of the elections, to reiterate the mandate of the Filipino people.

Separate inaugurations By tradition, the Vice President-elect is sworn in first to secure the constitutional succession. The President-elect then takes his oath, followed by a 21gun salute, four ruffles (drumrolls) and flourishes (trumpet blasts), and the playing of “Mabuhay,” the presidential anthem composed by Tirso Cruz Sr. and used since the Quezon administration.

The Duterte Camp has just informed the camp of Vice President-elect Leni Robredo that he wants a separate inauguration on June 30.

In a statement on June 15, Boyet Dy, chief of staff of Robredo’s transition team,

said they were informed by the Duterte team “about their preference to hold the inauguration separately.”

Dy acknowleged they had been preparing for a joint inauguration but “we respect their decision and will begin our own preparations for a simple and modest ceremony.”

Robredo was the running mate of the Liberal Party’s Mar Roxas while Duterte was standard bearer of the Partido ng Demokratikong Pilipino (PDP-Laban).

Duterte has not named Robredo to any Cabinet post. The Constitution does not mandate the President to appoint the Vice President to a Cabinet post, but he “may.”

By tradition, the President-elect and Vice President-elect take their oath in the same venue.

Undersecretary Quezon said there was one instance when the President-elect had his inauguration without the Vice President – in 1986 – when Ferdinand Marcos, Sr. had his inauguration in Malacanan Palace without Arturo Tolentino, his Vice President.

Emilio Aguinaldo and Jose P. Laurel had no Vice President, hence Robredo is 14th Vice President while Duterte is 16th, Quezon said.

By tradition also, from the inaugural venue the President pro ceeds to Malacañan Palace for the inaugural luncheon, oathtaking of Cabinet and first Cabinet meeting, diplomatic reception.

The Rizal Ceremonial Hall where Duterte will be sworn in as President, is the largest room in the Mala-

canan Palace and is used for large dinners and large assemblies. The first President to take his oath there was Ferdinand Marcos, on February 25, 1986 although he delivered his inaugural address in Maharlika Hall (now Kalayaan Hall).

On the same day, Corazon Aquino and Salvador Laurel took their oath as President and Vice President. By evening, the Marcoses were fetched by helicopter of the Untied States and flown to the Clark Air Base in Pampanga en route to Hawaii.

“Comfort zone” Duterte, a resident of Davao City in Mindanao where he served as mayor for 22 years, has to fly to Manila for the inauguration.

Earlier he told reporters he would fly back to Davao City which he described as his “comfort zone.”

But Go told MindaNews on Wednesday morning (June 15) that Duterte will not fly back to Davao after the oath-taking. “Stay na Manila” (he will stay in Manila), he replied.

Asked where in Malacanang Duterte would stay, Go said, “Pangarap.”

Bahay Pangarap is the official residence of the outgoing President. Aquino chose Bahay Pangarap because he found Malacanan Palace and the Arlegui Mansion where her mother stayed, too big for him.

Like Aquino, Duterte’s civil status is “single,” having separated from his wife in 2001. He lives with his partner and 12-year old daughter in a modest subdivision in Davao City. Duterte had earlier said he will not have See oath, page A11

Dad pushes inspection of ‘ dorms ,’ ‘lodging houses’ Friday, June 17, 2016

CAGAYAN de Oro City-Councilor here called for the inspection of the dormitories and lodging houses within the university belt anew as classes

start this week.

City Councilor Edna Dahino, thanked the city’s Office of Building Official (OBO) for conducting the inspections of the structures of all dormitories in the city.

She said that the OBO officials have conducted the inspections before the opening of the classes this school year.

D a h i n o , h o w e v e r, pushes for another round of inspection as the classes

officially started this week to ensure that the occupants of the dormitories (mostly students) are safe.

She said that all dormitories must have functional fire exits, sufficient water supply, and proper

installation of electrical wirings.

Dahino also called on dormitory owners to monitor the occupants and students as to the number of electronic gadgets to avoid possible overload-

ing of the power supply.

Dahino , chair of the city council commerce and trade, also sought the help of the village officials to assist in the monitoring of dormitories in their locality.

THE habit of drinking hot beverages might be linked to oesophageal cancer, according to a report issued by the World Health Organization (WHO) on Wednesday.

“Drinking hot coffee could be dangerous to your health, but apparently it’s not the coffee, it’s the hot,” UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric told reporters here.

“The report issued by an international group of 23 scientists convened by the WHO found no conclusive evidence for a carcinogenic

effect of drinking coffee, or mate,” Dujarric said at a daily news briefing here.

“But the experts did find that drinking ver y hot beverages can cause cancer of the oesophagus.”

It is the temperature, rather than the drinks themselves, that appears to be responsible, according to the report.

The report said a high rate of oesophageal cancers occur in parts of Asia, South America, and East Africa, where regularly drinking very hot beverages is common.

The report was based on limited evidence from epidemiological studies that showed positive associations between cancer of the oesophagus and drinking very hot beverages, WHO said in a press release.

Studies in places such as China, Iran, Turkey and South America, where tea or mate is traditionally drunk very hot (at about 70 degrees Celsius), found that the risk of oesophageal cancer increased with the temperature at which the beverage was drunk, it said. “In experiments

involving animals, there was also limited evidence for the carcinogenicity of very hot water.”

“Smoking and alcohol drinking are major causes of oesophageal cancer, particularly in many highincome countries,” said Dr Christopher Wild, director of the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).

“However, the majority of oesophageal cancers occur in parts of Asia, South America, and East Africa, where regularly drinking very hot beverages is com-

mon and where the reasons for the high incidence of this cancer are not as well understood,” he said.

Oesophageal cancer is the eighth most common cause of cancer worldwide and one of the main causes of cancer death, with approximately 400,000 deaths recorded in 2012, which accounts for 5 percent of all cancer deaths.

“The proportion of oesophageal cancer cases that may be linked to drinking very hot beverages is not known,” said the press release.

Cold mate did not have carcinogenic effects in experiments on animals or in epidemiological studies, it said. “Therefore, drinking mate at temperatures that are not very hot was not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans.”

T h i s w a s b a s e d on inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of drinking cold or warm mate and inadequate evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of cold mate as a drinking liquid, it added.

Hot beverages can be harmful -- WHO

SP OKs P2.4B budget THE City Council during its regular session Monday presided over by Vice Mayor Caesar Ian E. Acenas enacted Ordinance No. 13081-2016, approving the 2016 annual budgets of the General Fund with an estimated income of P2,247,054,056 and of the Special Account: Economic Enterprises with estimated incomes of P63,400,705 for the City Economic Enterprises and P13,512,112 for the East-Westbound Terminals and Public Market, and P136,033,127 for the J.R. Borja General Hospital, to finance various estimated expenditures of the same amounts, respectively for calendar year 2016.

Councilor Alden Bacal, vice chair of the committee on finance and ways and means, said this year’s P2.460 billion budget is 18-percent higher than last year’s budget of P2.08 billion.

He said the increase was distributed to different departments based on documents submitted.

During budget deliberations, Councilor Bacal said the executive department submitted a budget of P4.8 billion for 2016.

However, in 2014, the actual income of the city was only P2.2 billion, he cited.

According to the council-

or, the executive department was requested to submit the actual income for 2015 as the basis of this year’s budget, but this was denied.

“We always communicated with the execu-

tive department so we can approve the budget,” he stressed yesterday.

In the 1880s, the United States’ western and southwestern territories had become known as the “Wild, Wild West,” where gunslingers ruled and bounty killers abounded. One of the most popular movies that memorialized the bloody history of the “West” was the 1957 movie, “Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.” It was so popular that several remakes were made years later, including two versions that were released almost simultaneously: “Tombstone” and “Wyatt Earp,” where the good guys – led by Wyatt Earp — fought the bad guys known as the “Cowboys.”

What’s interesting is that Wyatt Earp, his brothers, and a reputed gunslinger named John Henry “Doc” Holliday – a dentist who preferred pumping slugs than pulling teeth — went after the “Cowboys” wearing U.S. Marshall badges, which gave them implied authority to kill the bad guys. They’re sort of an earlier American version of the modern-day British screen licensed-tokill agent, “007.”

Fast forward to May 9, 2016. Davao City Mayor Rodrigo “Digong” Duterte won the presidency by a landslide. He ran on a promise to rid the country of criminals and drug dealers within six months. But he didn’t present a plan on how to fight crime and stop

Bread and Butter

Think a minute…

There was a baker who bought his butter from a local farmer. One day the baker decided to weigh the butter. He was surprised that the farmer had been giving him less butter but still charging him the same price. The baker got very angry! He told the farmer he was a dishonest crook and took him to court.

In court the judge asked the farmer: “Do you have measuring weights and scales? The farmer answered no. So the judge asked: “Then how do you weigh the pound of butter you sell to the baker?” The farmer said: “When the baker started buying butter from me I wanted to help him too, so I started buying his bread for my See hurst, page A9

bare hands. But Alexander the Great knew better that he could do it with a sword and he did it. It worked.

Could Duterte do it? Or should I say, “Would he do it?” Perhaps he should ask all his appointees to submit undated resignation letters that he could accept anytime at his pleasure.

One of the things he’d like to accomplish during his presidency is to urge Congress to restore death penalty by hanging, which was abolish in 2006 during Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s presidency. It’s interesting to note that if the death penalty were restored, it would also restore death penalty for the crime of plunder.

This would certainly make lawmakers – particularly those involved in the pork barrel scam — cringe in terror just at the thought of being hanged for plundering the people’s money.

They’d probably invoke their “Christian beliefs” as pretense for objecting to the restoration of the death penalty.

Needless to say, Duterte would be faced with strong opposition from all quarters. But while the people might be ready and willing to fight — and kill — the drug dealers, it doesn’t seem like they’re as enthused with the idea of stamping out corruption, which is See diaz, page A11

Celebrating Charter Day Commemorating the day Cagayan de Oro became a city is remembering Vice President Maning Pelaez, then Mayor Suniel, Mayor Tenying Borja and others.

They were some of the leaders in the frontline.

Looking back at the past, Cagayan, Misamis Oriental was a small town bounded

by Pabayo Street, Dolores Street, Burgos Street and Licoan. There was no Corrales Avenue then except the compound of Ateneo de Cagayan now Xavier University. Across the DBP building where a monument stands used to be a Bowling Alley owned by the Firmacion family. Students of the Ateneo had to pass

by Filipinas Street (now Hayes Street) to Pabayo or South Divisoria. J R. Borja street today used to be Calle Luzon.

Population should be a few thousands original Kagay-anons.

The amphitheater now used to be the site of the public market until it was relocated by Mayor Borja to Cogon. Pigs and other animals were slaughtered behind the Amphitheater by the river bank. Cogon was a forest then and residents were protesting for being far from the poblacion.

Lapasan, Carmen, Julaojulao, Camaman-an, Puntod and Macabalan were far barrios then with few resi-

dents. Nazareth was almost unknown.

Among the bigger stores in and around Divisoria were the Wadhus Store, Society Bazaar, Sabanal store, Dadlani, Oriental Lumber, Pura’s Pharmacy, Cagayan Grocery, Ah Fat Bakery, Cagayan Construction.

Along Real Street were Hongking Restaurant, Cagyan Ice Plant, several Chinese stores. Along Del Mar Street were Philippine Lumber and Hardware, Law Office of Atty. Ramon Adecer, City Restaurant, Yee Restaurant and some Chinese stores.

The area where the Archbishop palace now stands was the site of the old city jail and fire department until it was transferred to Lumbia. Carmen looked far and was reachable only by taking a ferry boat across the Cagayan river near city hall. Lapasan was a very far barrio too. The area where Gaisano and Ororama

now was swampy with tall grasses.

There were only two movie houses, namely: Oro Theater located across the Central school and the Crown Theater across the city hall. Only one public market at the Amphitheater.

There were three bus firms, the Mindanao Bus Company, the International Bus Line and Bukidnon Bus plying between Cagayan and Gingoog, and Cagayan and Kibawi. Much later came the Republic Bus covering the same route. CagayanGingoog travel was about eight to nine hours considering the bad highway plus a ferry boat at Tagoloan town.

The “kotcheros” were the kings of the road with their horse-drawn tartanillas.

Cagayan was then a quiet town and only the sounds of tartanillas could be heard at night.

There was only one shipping line that connect Manila to Cebu and Cagayan, the Compania Maritima.

There were no jeepneys.

People going to Lapasan, Gusa and elsewhere had to take the bus.

The true and real landmarks of the city is the Xavier University/Ateneo de Cagayan and the old Saint Augustine Cathedral, Cagayan river was then clean and crystal clear where people swim. People from See emata, page A11

One of its aims is to develop one’s capacity in order to actively and effectively participate in the solution of problems being faced by the community through the application of rational and creative thinking process in search for the solution of the problem.

The advent of new and up-to-date curriculum has brought into focus the need to match the new science programs with the updated conduct of science related researches.

Surigao Norte guv supports Duterte’s view on mining SURIGAO CITY, Surigao del Norte -- Governor Sol F. Matugas recently clarified that she supports the stand of President-elect Rodrigo Duterte against irresponsible mining.

Gov. Matugas also said that she is strictly enforcing applicable rules and pertinent regulations to make sure that mining companies comply with official policies.

It can be recalled that on June 4, President-elect Duterte told the big mining companies, particularly in Surigao del Norte, to stop destroying the environment.

“I am for responsible

mining. I believe in caring for the environment. That is why at the end of this month we are opening a coastal resource center in Hayangabon, Claver,” said Governor Matugas.

She added that even big mining companies at present are required to observe with the terms and conditions of their existence, to make sure that they do the best practices in terms of making sure that reforestation and tree-planting activities are completed.

Surigao del Norte is one of the major sources of gold, nickel and minerals. Gov. Matugas said she is do-

ing all her best to regulate mining and see to it that the environment is taken care of.

“No new mining permits will be issued and those existing mining companies

like Hinatuan Mining Company, Taganito HPAL, and others must comply with the strict environmental laws of the land,” she added. (John Glenn Platil, PGO-SDN/ PIA-Surigao del Norte)

A8 Westmin AFP: Abu Sayyaf sympathizers hinder operations against terrorists in Jolo Zamboanga del Norte, Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga Sibugay, and the cities of Isabela and Zamboanga

By Dominic I. Sanchez

ZAMBOANGA City -- The military here admitted that the main problem hindering successful operations against the terrorist Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) in Jolo, Sulu province is the backing of many locals there for the group.

We s t e r n M i n d an a o NOTICE

Command (Wesmincom) spokesperson Maj. Filemon Tan told media this morning (June 14) that government troops face a variety of constraints during their operations such as unfamiliar terrain and insufficient intelligence reports, but of note is the attitude of several Jolo residents toward the terror group.

Second Canadian hostage beheaded during Ramadan On Monday (June 13) the head of a caucasian-looking man believed to be that of Canadian kidnap victim Robert Hall was discovered inside an ice chest in the vicinity of the Jolo Cathedral.

Based on initial reports, the victim was executed sometime between 2 to 3 in the afternoon. The body is still to be found. Tan said, in spite of reason to believe that the head belonged to Hall, only police forensics can officially confirm or deny it.

The head was found after the ransom demand of P600-million was not paid during the deadline

set by the ASG Monday.

“The execution could have happened because the family or those negotiating for the release failed to give in to the demands of the group,” Tan said. “The prime minister of Canada says that they will not talk to these people and that no ransom will be given.”

Last April, John Ridsel, a friend of Hall, was also beheaded by the ASG after no ransom was paid. Hall, Ridsel and Filipina Marithes Flor were abducted last year while vacationing in Samal Island.

At present, two foreigners, Dutch Ewold Hurn and Norwegian Kjartan Sekkingstad, together with Flor and 4 other Filipinos are still in the hands of the Abu Sayyaf, Tan revealed.

They are talking through crimes, and we will

counter that with military action. We have never ceased with the operations,” Tan explained.

The Abu Sayyaf threat, said Tan is not only the problem of the authorities – the police and military.

“It is the problem of the local government and every person in Sulu,” he said.

“If we want to solve this problem, there should be a synergy among the locals, the LGU, the soldiers and the police,” Tan clarified.

“We can strike the enemy hard if you can just tell us where they are.”

Teaching computer science in high school

By MAE LADY ROSE CUABO CALINGA Secondary School Teacher I Ozamiz City National High School

A growing number of countries (Canada, Finland, Germany and Lithuania) already require computer science education for all high school students. That is integrated in our Senior High too.

In many cases however, lessons are too narrowly focused on programming and therefore do not give an appropriately broad view of the discipline.

Thus, Senior High school administrators in the Philippines must start coordinating with industry representatives to meet expectations on both sides. Of course, the K-12 curriculum will continue to be strictly followed but we all know that teachers

are free to supplement aids so that students can learn more.

Ev e r y b o d y a g re e s that computer science is a full-fledged scientific subject of its own. Thus, whatever lessons we teach our Senior High students must be anchored on key concepts and foundations of the field. It must be designed to be far more than a traditional introduction to programming – it must be a rigorous, engaging and approachable course that explores many of the big, foundational ideas of computing so that all students understand how these concepts are transforming the world we live in.

For the first time in Visayas, Boysen, manufacturer of the most widely distributed paint in the country, introduced their latest exhibition concept called the Boysen Mix & Match Color Lab to Cebu during the Philconstruct Visayas held last June 2 to 4, 2016 at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino.

Introduced in March this year at the Interior and Design Manila (IDM) and Worldbex, the Boysen Color Lab offers professionals and homeowners the chance to experience firsthand more than 80 of the company’s most popular colors as well as the new colors launched in Color Trend 2016.

Johnson Ongking, vice president of Pacific Paint (Boysen) Philippines, Inc. said, “Color is an experience.

With the Mix & Match Color Lab, the company opened up the possibility of having our clients experience the colors firsthand by providing them “swatchsicles,” or sticks, which they can dip into open cans of paint.

These are dried and then attached to tags or key carabiners so they can bring them home and use as book marks, bag tags, key chains, or simply as swatches.”

The Boysen Mix & Match Color Lab in Cebu was a resounding success with more than 500 people waiting in line to

Many of us are quick to see the faults and wrongs of others, but we’re slow to see and admit our own. In fact, many times we draw attention to other people’s problems and faults precisely because we don’t want to face our own. We think we’re wise experts at knowing what’s wrong with everyone else, yet we’re completely blind to our own weaknesses and character flaws.

But even if that other person does have something wrong with them, our own wrong of judging them can be even worse than what we’re judging them for! This is why Jesus Christ warned us that we will end up being judged by the same judgment we made on someone else! But if we will honestly admit to Jesus what’s wrong with our own character and way of living, Jesus will forgive us and give us His inner power. He can start fixing and changing our heart, so we’ll be free to genuinely love others instead of looking for their faults.

You are called to save others T he G ospel of Jesus Christ (June17, 2016-Friday) Matthew 1:18-24- But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall “call” his name Emmanuel: Are you willing to sacrifice just to make others safe and happy?

Can you get out from your comfort zone in life to give comfort to other people?

This gospel reminds us about the courage and bravery of Joseph to take

the great responsibility as the “El Salvador” of Mary from shamefulness. Look, Joseph never resisted from the instruction of God for him to fulfill since he is very obedient to God. This is our individual calling to protect anyone from danger and to ensure that this person will have a better future.

You are accountable to the progress and downfalls of everyone. You are called to save others like Joseph.

He was an ordinary man

and called to do an extra ordinary thing for us to be saved. Be sure that his will is done and fulfilled on this earth. You are called to become an implementer. You are called to make things happen. You are chosen to become productive for the welfare of others. You are born for a great reason to do and complete on this earth. Imitate Joseph; he was quiet in doing the will of God of his life.

Publication Notice R.A. 10172

By MAE LADY ROSE CUABO CALINGA Secondary School Teacher I Ozamiz City National High School

SCIENCE is the most exciting things to teach even among high school students. At this age, they still marvel and are starstruck about the wonders of the nature around us.

Thus, it is more adventurous and learning-friendly to high school students to learn science based on digital resources.

These resources are found online if only public high school teachers here in the Philippines have the diligence and the time to Google them, download them and present them in school as complementary aids for them to teach their students so the classroom discussion will become

livelier.

For instance, Chemistry teachers may want to download an app or a presentation about how homemade pizza should be cooked in a nutritious manner. By designing pizza that is both tasty and healthy, high school students will learn about nutrients and the relation between energy use and intake through food. In short, it isn’t just about Chemistry. It’s about Health and Human Anatomy too. The main aim is that learners will learn to see the relation between various ingredients and the nutritional value of prepared food using pizza as an example.

from page A4 ingrained in every facet of the people’s lives. In essence, what took centuries to take root in our society, would probably take as much time to uproot, if not longer… if ever.

Benevolent dictator But while Duterte is confronted by a strong defiance to make drastic changes to the Filipinos’ way of life, he can start by enforcing strict discipline to his official family — that is, rule with an iron hand – while showing compassion for the “common tao.”

There is a term for that: benevolent dictator. However, benevolence over time can turn into abuse of power, which was the pitfall of a lot of leaders who had succumbed to the same vice – corruption — that they vowed to eradicate. As Lord Acton said more than century ago: “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” It was true then, it is still true today.

P50-million bounty Faced with such a dilemma – damn if he does and damn if he doesn’t – Duterte may have to bite the bullet and do the best he could to fight corruption, regardless of who gets hurt, friend or foe alike.

The irony of this is that it is harder to punish a friend than an enemy. You can always make new enemies anytime.

But building friendships takes a lifetime, which makes one wonder: How many friends would Digong still has left at the end of his presidency? And how many enemies would he have hung by then? Wouldn’t that be the true measure of his promise to kill the drug lords and hang the plunderers?

But the drug lords are taking Digong’s threat seriously.

Bato dela Rosa disclosed the other day during a TV interview with Karen Davila that he received information from the grapevine that the drug lords have put a P50-million bounty on the heads of Digong and himself. He said that the initial bounty they offered was only P10 million for each and there were no takers, which makes one wonder: How high would the bidding go? But right now, bounty killers have already eliminated some drug dealers.

And the six-month deadline Digong gave Bato to finish the work has yet to begin.

Yep, Digong’s bounty killers are already at work. Welcome to Tombstone, Philippines.

He said that education officials encountered no problems in various schools in Misamis Oriental despite the increase of enrollment in grade 11.

Farnazo also expressed gratitude for the peaceful and orderly opening of classes in the entire region last Monday.

The Kalipunan ng Damayang Mahihirap (KADAMAY), “the United Association of the Poor,” however, said that most of their members in the urban poor sector find the program burdensome as they don’t have a stable income to send their children for additional school years.

Anakbayan (Son of the Country) and Kadamay were among those who challenged the government, especially the incoming administration of President-elect Rodrigo Duterte, to thoroughly review K to 12 and to eventually scrap it altogether. (PNA)

When in the branch, prospective members can register, while employers, individual payors, and self-employed members can pay their membership contributions. Members can also pay their additional savings under the Modified Pag-IBIG 2 Program.

Loan-borrowers can file their application for Multi-Purpose Loan (MPL) and Calamity Loan (CL), and update their housing, MPL, or CL amortization payments. The branch also disburses MPL and CL proceeds through Pag-IBIG Citi Prepaid Card or Land Bank Cash Card. Issuance of Member’s identification (MID) number, Member’s Statement of Accumulated Value (MSAV),

and facilitation of transfer of member’s records & loan details can also be accomplished in the branch.

The branch also issues PagIBIG Loyalty Card wherein members can enjoy privileges and discounts from partner schools, establishments, and merchants. Employers can also request for a Loyalty Card Kiosk deployment so that their employees can enroll for the Loyalty Card in the convenience and comfort of their own offices.

Atty. Berberabe shared that Pag-IBIG continues to bring Pag-IBIG services to more members in various areas in Metro Manila through branch expansion, “We continue to improve our service by making transacting with Pag-IBIG easier for our members. We have also instituted reforms by reducing interest rates in housing and calamity loans, and insurance premiums as well. Pag-IBIG did these for its members without increasing the monthly contribution of P100,” she added.

From only 11 in 2010, PagIBIG branches in the NCR has increased to 30. Pag-IBIG has 113 branches nationwide, up from 38 six years ago. (JRS/ Faye)

Pelaez, and Go Negosyo Angelpreneur Dean Pax Lapid )

VICE GOVERNOR JOEY G. PELAEZ warmly congratulated his personal friend, Go Negosyo Executive Director Ramon M. Lopez, who will be joining the Duterte Administration as Secretary of the Department of Trade and Industry. Mr. Lopez is the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship - Go Negosyo’s Executive Director for the past 11 years.

Together with Go Negosyo’s Founder Joey Concepcion and Go Negosyo’s Executive Director Ramon Lopez, Vice Governor Joey G. Pelaez has consistently widen the learning experience between Taiwanese and Filipino students and teachers through exchanges.

He named four schools – University of the Philippines, University of Sto. Tomas, Ateneo De Manila University, and De La Salle University – where their delegations had immersed so “we can strengthen exchanges of professor and students” to enhance mutual understanding.

He said efforts have been undertaken in Taiwan to give Filipino workers equal treatment in terms of medical coverage, insurance, and other benefits.

China considers Taiwan a renegade province and has always warned it against declaring independence from the mainland.

The Philippines has maintained a one-China policy.

and strongly supported the strong entrepreneurship advocacy which promoted the enterprising culture among Filipinos when he was in the Department of Education.

He also organized the annual Teen Negosyo training in Baguio City in partnership with PCE-Go Negosyo and

the Department of Trade and Industry-Philippine Trade Training Center.

At present, he supports the conduct of the yearly Negosyo sa Barangay and Negosyo sa Bayan Entrepreneurship Development Trainings which seek to promote and develop entrepneurship in the grassroots level.

Vice Governor Pelaez believes that the appointment of Incoming DTI Secretary Lopez will surely empower and inspire the micro, small and medium entrepreneurs in the country.

INTELLIGENCE FUND Councilor Roger Abaday earlier raised concern that the confidential and intelligence expenses of the Office of the City Mayor may not be enough to implement peace and order programs in line with the banner program of the incoming Duterte government.

But Councilor Tabor said other cities like Cebu have allocated the same amount of intelligence fund.

“The question we have to answer is, will increasing the budget for intelligence fund and extraordinary fund deter crimes?” he stressed.

It is not certain if Duterte will spend more days in Malacañan Palace than in Davao City.

Since May 31, a day after Congress proclaimed him winner in the Presidential race, Duterte has been holding office from afternoon to dawn at the Presidential Guest House inside the seaside compound of the Department of Public Works and Highways in Panacan which had been dubbed by locals since the Arroyo administration as “Malacanang of the South” and recently dubbed by the media as “Panacañang.”

Duterte has received Ambassadors and interviewed potential Cabinet members as well as held two press conferences (May 31 and June 2) where he presented his Cabinet members. (Carolyn O. Arguillas / MindaNews)
