And the winner is……
“After twelve rounds, we now go to the judges’ score cards!” We often hear those familiar words from international ring announcer Michael Buffer at the end of an exciting boxing event. Buffer then reads the individual judges’ scores. Depending on how the judges saw the fight that has just gone the distance, the result could be a unanimous decision, a split decision, a majority decision or a draw. Every now and then, the score of two judges would turn out to be poles apart, leaving the spectators to wonder if the two judges were in fact watching the same event. The divergence is explained by the fact that judges are seated at different vantage points around the ring and that the judges could actually have different perceptions on how the fight went. The recent “scorecards” submitted by “judges” grading President Rody Duterte’s first 100 days, in a way, mimic the boxing judges’ scorecards.
Judge No. 1 (and, here, I am referring to the surveys – both SWS and Pulse Asia ) gives President Rody excellent scores in terms of both approval and trust ratings. In fact, observers point out that President Rody’s ratings are higher than those of President PNoy during a similar period. Judge No. 2 (Eg. former President Fidel V. Ramos), on the other hand, considers Duterte’s performance a disappointment. Why the big disparity in the ratings? Let me just venture a guess. The two judges used different criteria! Judge No. 1 measured President Rody against his campaign promises. And, bereft of all those expletives, he just had a very short list of promises - an unrelenting fight against drugs, crimininality and corruption. He was voted overwhelminingly based on this campaign. Very visible to the Judge No. 1 is the war on drugs, like no other, which started even before Duterte assumed office. Crime statistics, ac-
cording to the police, have actually gone down. And while there have been no dramatic changes yet as far as the anti-corruption drive, improvements are expected by Judge No. 1 over a longer term (certainly, not 100 days). Judge No. 2, on the other hand, used a longer list of performance measures. It is true that fighting drugs, criminality and corruption are important. But they are not everything. Yes, we need to address tactical gut concerns. But we also need to address strategic concerns whose benefits could only be felt in the future, eg. environment, climate change, interconnectivity and cooperation in a highly globalized community. Because of the reality of interdependence among nations, we can not afford to be parochial. We need to think globally. We need not alienate old allies while expanding our circle of friends. We also need to discard “20th century thinking” and to embrace the realities of the 21st century. So, did our boxer win

Speaking Out
Think a minute… Imagine this rich, successful young man. He’s well educated and owns a big, beautiful house. He lives and travels first class! Yet even with all his success he still goes to church and is a humble, good person. Of course, he’s not perfect. But he’s definitely no murderer. Adultery? Nothing any redblooded boy wouldn’t do once in a while. Stealing? Only a little cheating like everyone else does to survive. Honors his father and mother? Definitely. He sends money home all the time. Sounds like a good person doesn’t he? But do you know what Jesus Christ said

The Wealthy Poor Think A Minute
Jhan Tiafau Hurst
to a young man like the one we just talked about? Jesus saw right through this nice, church-going young man. Jesus knew that this man really loved his good life and religious reputation
more than he loved Jesus. Yet this man thought he was a Christian and right with God just because he went to church, and was kind to other people. But Jesus said he’s not even close! Harsh words, aren’t they? Jesus taught that there is absolutely nothing that any person can do, whether it’s going to church or giving money to the poor, that is good enough to reach God’s standard of perfect goodness from the heart. You see, if God can forgive and accept me into heaven just because I’m a good person, then Jesus was either a crazy lunatic, or a liar! Because Jesus Himself said that He,
job was to be in Dubai or Turkey (see (https://www. facebook.com/elmercato/ posts/10153999493932532). Cato pointed out that, at present, there is even a ban on deployment of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) to Iraq, in view of ongoing skirmishes in that country. “Like many trafficking victims, the woman in the freezer used an assumed name in applying for a job abroad. Along with several others, she was offered a job in Dubai or Turkey by illegal recruiters in Mindanao. She took a perilous boat ride to Malaysia and eventually ended up in Iraq…” Cato added. Filipino officials learned about Hajan’s death only when her Iraqi employer notified the embassy about her case. The employer said he was sorry that the remains remained frozen in See batas, page A11
God the Son, He had to die and give His own perfect life to pay the penalty for all our wrongs, so He could forgive us and make us His children. So friend, just going to church cannot save you and me. Giving money to the poor cannot earn us God’s gift of forgiveness and new life. There is nothing or no one in this world who can make us good enough and acceptable to our perfect Creator…only God the Son Himself. Jesus alone can forgive and save you and me from judgment and hell forever for living our own way, even if we’re religious. See hurst, page A11

DSWD, JICA, ACTION expand training program for house parents, social workers to push quality childcare in PH The Department of Social Welfare and Development and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in partnership with Japanese non-profit group, A Child’s Trust is Ours to Nurture (ACTION), signed yesterday a capacity building program to boost house parenting standards in child care institutions in the National Capital Region (NCR). Present during the signing were DSWD Secretary Judy Taguiwalo, DSWDNCR Director Vincent Leyson, Region 3 Director Gemma Gabuya, and Project Manager Hajime Yokota of ACTION. Sec. Taguiwalo welcomed the cooperation saying that, “the project supports the present administration’s anti-poverty agenda of reaching out to marginalized children and communities and providing them opportunities to improve their plight.” For his part, ACTION Project Manager Hajime Yokota said, “The cooperation expands our previous initiative on training house
parents or care givers working in child care facilities in Central Luzon in 2003. This time, we aim to train about 280 house parents and social workers attending to vulnerable, impoverished children in NCR.” Data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) in 2012 showed that poverty incidence is high in the children sector (35.2%) versus other sectors. Impoverished children are also most vulnerable to violence, exploitation, abuse, and discrimination. In the Philippines, the DSWD and its accredited childcare facilities throughout the country provide interventions to such children cases. The lack of house parenting or care giving standards in said facilities prompted DSWD, JICA, ACTION to set a capacity building program to improve the knowledge, and skills of child care workers in the facilities. “JICA aims to support the Philippines’ poorest sectors overcome their vulnerability. This cooperation
hopes to also ensure that everyone, including marginalized children, will benefit from the economic growth the Philippines achieved. Improving child care standards of house parents and social workers is crucial in teaching children to become self-reliant and productive members of society,” said JICA Chief Representative Susumu Ito. The project also aims to provide life skills training to children in residential institutions in Region 3. The cooperation is part of the JICA Partnership Program, a scheme under the agency’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) that taps Japanese non-government organizations, local governments, and academe to address social and economic development issues at the grassroots level. DSWD Region 3, JICA and ACTION previously held trainings for about 250 house parents in 38 residential facilities in Central Luzon before the expansion to NCR.
CDO expresses love, care in elderly week celeb By Recthie T. Paculba
CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY -- Participated by over 800 senior citizens in Cagayan de Oro city, the Elderly Filipino Week celebration of the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO) and Office of Senior Citizens Affairs (OSCA) in partnership with the Department of Social Welfare and
Development-10 (DSWD) culminated on October 12 with the awarding of centenarians, games and contests. “We are what we are today tungod sa inyong pagpaningkamot (We are what we are today because of your endeavor),” City Mayor Oscar Moreno referred to the senior citizens during the event. He also said that the

The awarding of centenarians is a way of the city to honor individuals who have lived to a hundred and over.(RTP/PIA10)
elderly do not gather in a group just to discuss the discounts and privileges since it is a right rather they join in groups because it is “through the association where they find a feeling of attachment, belonging to the group.” The association is where they can interact with people whom they can relate to and share stories of success or problems. Meanwhile, Del Monte Philippines, Inc. retiree Estrella Mangubat, 71, cited the significance of celebrating the elderly week saying, “Importante ni siya kay in the first place, ang mga senior citizen shorter time na ang imong life sa dinhi so at least you are given the chance to enjoy other people and entertainment.” (This is important because in the first place, the senior citizens only have shorter time in their lives here so at least we are given the chance to enjoy other people as well as the entertainment.) She also said, “I am very thankful that there are these kinds of group nga nagpakabana, nga concerned sa mga senior citizen, at least nakita nila how important is the senior citizen to them (I am very thankful that there are these kinds of people who initiate and are concerned to the senior citizens. At least they have seen how important the senior citizen is to them.) For his part, Ronald B. Alli, 73, president of See expresses, page A11

Gov’t unions, people’s orgs unite to pursue Movement for Change Various government unions led by the Social Welfare Employees Association of the Philippines (SWEAP); Confederation for Unity, Recognition and Advancement of Government Employees (COURAGE); and, people’s organizations such as Kalipunan ng Damayang Mahihirap (KADAMAY), representing the urban poor; and, GABRIELA representing women, gathered at the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) Central Office yesterday, to push for “tunay na pagbabago” (Real change) under the banner “Kawani at Mamamayan Para sa Pagbabago”. Manuel Baclagon, SWEAP National President, outlined the 15-Puntong Adyenda ng Mamamayan sa Pagbabago being pursued by the Movement for Change which was agreed upon by different organizations during the People’s Summit held last June 29, 2016 at the University of the Philippines. This was presented to President Rodrigo R.
Duterte during his inauguration and the proponents are hoping that he will respond to this in the soonest possible time. These are: 1. Ipaglaban ang karapatan ng bansang magpursige sa sarili at ang dangal ng teritoryo ng Pilipinas. 2. Igalang ang karapatang pantao. 3. Igiit ang kalayaang pang-ekonomiya. 4. Ilunsad ang pambansang industriyalisasyon. 5. Ipatupad ang tunay na reporma sa lupa. 6. Itaas ang sahod at ang pamumuhay ng mga manggagawa. 7. Palawakin ang serbisyong panlipunan. 8. Itigil ang pandarambong at lahat ng anyo ng katiwalian at korapsyon. 9. Bawasan ang badyet militar at ilaan sa pagpapaunlad ng ekonomiya at serbisyong panlipunan. 10. Itaguyod ang makabayan, demokratiko, siyentipiko at progresibong sistema ng edukasyon at kultura. 11. Itaguyod ang pagkapantay ng kasarian at baka-
hin ang diskriminasyong sekswal. 12. Tiyakin ang nararapat na paggamit ng mga likas na yaman at pangalagaan ang kalikasan. 13. Igalang ang karapatan ng pambansang minorya. 14. Ipagpatuloy ang negosasyong pangkapayapaan sa National Democratic Front (NDF) at Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). 15. Ipursige ang isang malayang patakarang panlabas. The discussion focused on the issues and gains of the Duterte administration in its first 100 days vis-à-vis the concerns of the affected sectors, such as the urban poor, women, and militant groups. Sharon Cabusao, a former political prisoner, stated that they “feel hopeful because of the mere fact that the peace talks between the Government of the Republic of the Philippines (GRP) and the National Democratic Front Party (NDFP) are proceeding and these have positive effects on the case of political prisoners.” See unite, page A11

potentials and we acknowledge the Department through regional director, Raymundo G. Agravante, in sustaining efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labor in the country.” Anticipating to learn more, the participants listened to lectures on the Five Key Concepts in Media Literacy with former NCCT Head Delia Hernandez as the speaker. “Media is the central nervous system of modern society...And in media, you must remember to watch carefully, think critically, and participate actively,” Hernandez said. In addition, DOLE–10 Senior Labor and Employment Officer Glenford C. Labial shared vital information in regards with the department’s anti-child labor program which showed effective results upon the integration of child labor in one-minute films. To discuss on story conceptualization, basic scriptwriting, and basic videography, among others, internationally acclaimed director, Rommel “Milo” Tolentino acted as the focal speaker at the seminar as he further exposed the student-par-
ticipants in the pre and post production processes in filmmaking. By t he e nd of t he h and s - on and i nte n sive workshop, participants came up with a one-minute production, shot with their camera devices, and showcased their unique ideas and perspectives which can act as an effective tool to raise awareness about the problems in the community, especially on the concerns inclined with child labor. The presentation of video outputs was done on the last day as participants expressed their viewpoint and integrated them into films that were shown on the screen. It was then followed by the critiquing, evaluation, and posttest activities by the resource speakers and facilitators. Special awards were also given to outstanding films; best production design; best script; best videography; best direction; best actor; best actress; and best editing, respectively. Completion certificates were received by the young participants who now act as the voices of under-represented sectors

5 Tips on How to Motivate Students to Love Math By MANILEN SEGUIREL LIZANO TEACHER II SAN ANDRES NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL
We often hear the remark, “I hate Mathematics”! What is it about mathematics that makes students so unreceptive? A lot of research has shown that learners lose interest between the years in elementary and high school and many don’t regain this interest until they reach college. This challenged teachers on how to make math more engaging to the students. Here are few tips to motivate students to love math. First, math teachers should be lovely first to the eyes of the students. Students have already assumed that math is difficult; teachers should find way that they can be lovable so that their subject will be lovable too. Thus, math teachers should not be terror. Let students provide their own math puzzles before starting your class. Give students the chance to enjoy math while learning it. This activity will ignite students to be confident in standing in front and present their mathematical puzzles. Incorporate technology to your lessons. Students love technology since it is with their generation.
Teachers can see much of its difference than chalk and talk method. There are lot of math applications nowadays in the net which can connect lessons to the real word. Incorporate music into your lessons. This can be done during math week laying down activities such as math song solo, math dance craze and math jingles. Play games. Give students time to play making math interesting using recreational activities such as playing chess, snake and ladder using math numbers, Chinese checkers and etc. Country’s hope was laid in teachers’ hands because if we cannot make students love learning then we cannot expect them to be an asset to our country. We can make a pivot to change the perceptions of the students. We can do it. Learning math is fun!

Technology is necessary but not always a positive influence in modern life. This issue has especially come into vogue in the last decade due to the mindboggling pace of technology. Also, this issue is a complex one because it involves a conflict between the traditional and the modern. First, it goes without saying that technology has made our lives easier to the extent that repetitive
and monotonous tasks need not be performed manually. These tasks, by their very nature, are irascible and reduce the productive potential of an individual. Today, it is a big deal to have technology devices in a classroom learning process. Teachers will work more easily by having these devices in a process of teaching. Also, in terms of students, it contribute a big impact though their learning. Many people warn of the possible harmful
effects of using technology in the classroom. Will children lose their ability to relate to other human beings? Will they become dependent on technology to learn? Will they find inappropriate materials? The same was probably said with the invention of the printing press, radio, and television. All of these can be used inappropriately, but all of them have given humanity unbounded access to information which can be turned into knowledge. Technology can be used to perpetuate old models
KNHS Launches Feeding Program By ANGIE L. TRIGUEROS, Teacher II KALILANGAN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL Kalilangan, Bukidnon
One month after the enrolment our School Nurse, Mapeh Teachers, and TLE Teachers finalized the records of the nutritional status of every student. In grade 7-Taurus there were severely wasted and wasted status and because of these existing problems our School Principal Dr. Elecia M. Rivera together with the school nurse acted the problem right away. She required conducting a feeding program for the students who are identified as wasted status.
They are also encouraged to look for external stakeholders to sponsor this program and to be monitored by TLE teachers. She assigned section advisers to handle these problems. This program is to be supervised by the TLE chairman Mrs. Ruth N. Digdigan. The adviser called up the parents of the severely wasted status of the students who discussed about what they could do to help improve the health of their children and at the same
time made the schedule of the cooking sessions. Three parents were assigned to assist in the feeding sessions of ten Fridays of the month. The feeding program started last July 2016 in Kalilangan NHS HE building. For the month of October it is noted that there were only few children who were served during the feeding program due to their increase of weight. Deworming was also given last August 2016 to make sure the feeding served its purpose. After 3 and ½ month the students gained weight and were no longer sickly

of teaching and learning. Students can be “plugged into computers” to do drill and practice that is not so different from workbooks. Teachers can use multimedia technology to give more colorful, stimulating lectures. Both of these have their place, but such use does not begin to tap the power of these new tools. Though technology has made our lives easier but can we categorize it as a blessing? It is quite debatable because where we have so many advantages of technology there are negativities as well. and pale. With this, group of students are used to report to the HE during Fridays so feeding program continuously done. Dr. Elecia M. Rivera felt the dire need to continue the program for it means survival and prevent s SARDOS due to malnutrition problem. ’’A healthy individual will make a healthy leader in the future”. Quoted by our school nurse. I believe that this feeding program of KNHS has really changed and helped the lives of those severely wasted students in Kalilangan National High School.

Rivera, PhD., Parents, Government Officials, Teachers and Students on May 30 – June 4, 2016 at THE SCHOOL CAMPUS. After the conduct of the Brigada Eskwela, a lot of things were improved not only the physical features of the school but more so to the views of people who are directly involved in the teaching – Learning process.
It had strengthened the idea that amidst the financial constraints and some form of inequities due to lack of facilities, a sparkling hope to create a venue conducive to learning is not at all that inevitable. The Realization then that, with a lot of encouragement and motivation, comes along the ever wanted result which will ignite others to do their share such that they will become a contributing factor in the pursuit of attaining quality education for the year 2010 and onwards. The essence of Brigada Eskwela is not only the preparation of the place where the actual transfer of knowledge happens but it is also a way to reaffirm one’s commitment in extending support to the society in which a person belongs because the very thing that is at stake here are the future of today’s generation. The joint accomplish-
ment of the teachers, parents, students and the community as a whole is so rewarding since everyone became a part in the attainment of the goals set beforehand. Through maintaining this kind of report, there will be a close supervision and monitoring of their children’s performance because with the Brigada Eskwela encounter, parents will not become hesitant to inquire about the academic needs of their offspring as they are assured that they were able to entrust the future of their children in good hands being known as a “Child Friendly School”. In this manner, the parents will truly become the teachers, partners in augmenting the academic endeavor of the youth who are well equipped with tools necessary to make them globally competitive.

Alay Kuwento By DELAILA G. CABAHUG, T-III KALILANGAN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL Kalilangan, Bukidnon
“Literacy is an individual’s ability to read, write, and speak in English, and compute and solve problems at levels of proficiency necessary to function on the job and in society, to achieve one’s goals, and to develop one’s knowledge and potential.” This is according to National Literacy Act; 1991. This is true but in addition to this, as a Filipino student he/she should also know how to read and write in Filipino. This is the reason why “ALAY KUWENTO SA MGA KABATAAN” was created by Mrs. Delaila G. Cabahug and Miss Marvie G. Estiba because they believe that this literacy program is one way of helping children to develop their reading ability. Reading aloud and telling stories to children can enhance
their language and literacy development. Telling stories to children with full of feelings and emotions will develop their skills in listening, understanding and of course acting. The love of reading is develop in this program in the since that they will not only listeners but they will be taught to read and to understand what they have read. As teacher we can extend and share our knowledge, talent, time and love to others not only during class hours but even during off hours. Since Christmas is fast approaching, a time of sharing and time of giving especially to the children, this literacy program was created. This activity will make the Christmas vacation of the children memorable and fruitful one.

The forum ended with an open forum between the guest speakers and the employees from different government agencies.

PNP narco campaign yields HVT CAMP ALAGAR, Cagayan de Oro City, Oct. 14 -- A high value target (HVT) listed No.3 on the priority target list in Misamis Occidental was killed in a shootout during a police drug buy bust operation in Baliangao town, Oct. 13. The slain suspect was identified as Remy Gumapac Jr, a civilian personnel of the Philippine National Police (PNP) employed as computer operator of Ozamiz City Police Station. Gumapac’s driver and cohort identified only as “Arnel” was also killed in the shootout. Northern Mindanao police regional spokesperson PSupt Surki Sereñas said Gumapac alias “Waway” is being linked to an organized crime group based in Ozamiz City, the Dragon Francisco group which engages in robbery hold-up, drug trafficking, extortion and gun-for-hire. Gumapac was one of the subjects of the search warrants issued against high profile personalities in Ozamiz City
on August 28, 2016. However, he was in Cebu during the said dawn raid. Gumapac was transferred from Ozamiz City to Baliangao after the said raid and was reportedly warned to stop his illegal activities but continued his drug trade. “We warned him but he did not heed our advise,” Misamis Occidental police provincial director, PSupt Jeysen De Guzman said. Police regional director PCSupt Noel Constantino lauded the police operation. “I congratulate Misamis Occidental for a job well done! This only shows that our campaign applies to all regardless of whether we are targeting other people or our own personnel. If they violate the law, they will have to answer for it,” PCSupt Constantino said. Meanwhile, Constantino reiterated, “There will be no letup in our intensified war against illegal drugs. There will be no sacred cows.” (PIO PRO10)
OFWs SUFFERINGS PREDICTED IN THE BIBLE: How many more of our countrymen who similarly sought employment abroad to escape poverty and want in the Philippines would suffer the same fate as Laida Hajan? I am sure there will be more, given the continuing deprivation of many our countrymen, and given the greed of many Filipinos who treat their compatriots as objects of commerce from whom financial gain could be achieved. What is more important to remember, however, is this: this kind of sordid fate or ill fortune of our people--having to go abroad to earn a living, and then meeting one mishap after another that either maims them for life or
kills them---was predicted to occur by a book known as the “Holy Bible”. As the Biblical verse quoted under this column’s “Life’s Inspiration” today, if we no longer sincerely listen to, or carefully obey, God, we shall see our chidren given to other nations, where we will be unable to do something to help them when troubles come afflicting them. I suggest Filipinos should read their Bible more thoughtfully now, because its predictions are coming true in our own time! -oooPLEASE WATCH OR LISTEN: “Tambalang Batas at Somintac”, a news-commentary radio program, aired at DZEC 1062 kHz and other Radyo Agila provincial sta-

That’s why Jesus is our only hope! But after we’ve asked Him to forgive us and take full charge of our life in a daily personal relationship. It’s then because He’s already forgiven and saved us, we’ll only want to spend the rest of our life growing and learning in His family, the church, how to live His right successful way every day.
