FDC Misamis synchs with Mindanao grid Filinvest ends Mindanao’s recurring power crisis

THE FDC Misamis Power Corporation (FDC Misamis) announced yesterday that the second unit of its 405 MW flagship project in Villanueva, Misamis Oriental had been synchronized to the Mindanao grid, only a month after its first unit went online, the company said. It said the third unit is scheduled for synchronization by the first half of September. FDC Misamis, A subsidiary of Filinvest Development Corporation, is the first plant to be commissioned under the Duterte administration. “To date, FDC Misamis has a generating capacity of 270 MW and is currently

supplying over 200 MW into the Mindanao grid. So far, the commissioning test has been running smoothly and we expect to attain the full capacity of 405 MW by this month,” said Mario

Pangilinan, President and Chief Operating Officer of FDC Utilities, Inc. Located at the Phividec Industrial Estate in Villanueva, Misamis Oriental, the power plant is a multi-

billion peso investment that uses the latest in clean coal technology: the circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler technology. Considered as the cleanest process to

burning coal, the technology is also known for having higher steam generator efficiency thus lowering carbon emissions. See GRID, page A11

Balay Mindanaw turns over health centers to partner brgys By BONG D. FABE Contributing Editor

AFTER almost a year, the peace and development non-government organization Balay Mindanaw Foundation, Inc. (BMFI) finally turned over the newly-constructed health centers to at least three of its partner barangays. “Health has a very great impact on disaster preparedness and resiliency-building, that is why we need to take care of it,” stressed Sabrina “Sabcee” Garcia Balais, leader of BMFI’s Team CDO during the simple turn-over ceremonies in the barangays of Mambuaya, Lumbia and Patag.

Construction cost was shouldered by BMFI’s generous foreign partners German Humanitarian Assistance and Johanniter International Assistance in partnership with the City Government of Cagayan de Oro, Department of Health through the City Health Office, and Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council. “What happened to the city during Sendong was big eye-opener for all, especially us in public service,” explained Dr. Rachel Dilla, City Health Officer II, refer-

ring to Tropical Storm Washi that devastated Cagayan de Oro and neighboring Iligan City on December 16, 2011. Sendong’s killer flashflood wiped out an entire community, save a twostorey concrete house, that sprouted in Sitio Cala-Cala, Barangay Macasandig. “Thus, Mayor Moreno began thinking of setting up infirmaries in strategic barangays that will serve as catchbasin to cover all of the city’s 80 urban and rural barangays,” Dilla said. However, due to financial constraints, the mayor’s plan only began to be realized four years after taking over the reins of City Hall. Among these barangays are Tablon, Patag, See HEALTH, page A11

Gensan City Council commends GPH, NDF for ‘historic’ Oslo talks

GENERAL Santos City--The City Council has passed a resolution commending the government (GPH) and the National Democratic Front (NDF) for the “historic and unprecedented” first round of formal peace negotiations in Oslo, Norway last week, as it expressed hope it would eventually bring lasting peace in the country. It reiterated its full support to the ongoing peace process and the declaration of an indefinite ceasefire by both parties. “We laud the efforts of both parties for declaring and committing to a unilateral ceasefire with no time limit and signing an unprecedented and historic joint statement that may pave the way for the end of the decades-long communist rebellion and thus, the realization of a lasting peace,” the resolution said. Vice Mayor Shirlyn Banas-Nograles, who authored the resolution, said Thursday that the NDF’s

ceasefire declaration, which took effect last Sunday, Aug. 28, was an important gesture for the peace process. The Vice Mayor said the cessation of the armed hostilities will benefit civilians on the ground as well as government forces and units of the NDF’s armed wing, the New People’s Army (NPA). She stressed that the nearly half a century armed conflict has claimed an estimated 150,000 lives. “(The City Council) is cognizant of the essential need to end the armed struggle of the communist rebels as this hinders the realization of a more comprehensive development in the country,” she said. President Rodrigo Duterte had earlier declared a unilateral ceasefire during his first State of the Nation Address on July 25, lifted it on July 30 when the NDF did not reciprocate it and a Cafgu personnel was killed and four others were injured.

Duterte restored the effects of the unilateral ceasefire midnight of August 21, just before Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process Jesus Dureza and the government peace panel left for Oslo, Norway, for the August 22 to 26 talks. The restoration was in response to the NDF’s seven-day unilateral ceasefire that was to start at 12:01 a.m. August 21 and end at 11:59 p.m. August 27. The NDF declared its indefinite unilateral ceasefire effective August 28. EMOTIONAL.

GENERAL Santos City--The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) expects a surge in tuna exports to the European Union (EU) with the impending implementation of the country’s new free trade agreement with the European Free Trade Association (EFTA). Trade and Industry Secretary Ramon Lopez said the new trade deal will open up more access to the EU for fresh and processed tuna products, which are already enjoying duty-free treatment under the 28-nation bloc’s Generalized Scheme of Preferences Plus (GSP+). “This is a another opportunity that our tuna

industry, especially the exporters, can build on, as we continue to seek better access for our products in the international markets,” he said at the opening of the 18th National Tuna Congress here on Wednesday afternoon. The Philippines and EFTA states Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland signed a free trade agreement in April to boost their cooperation and exchanges. The broad-based deal covers trade in goods and services, investment, competition, the protection of intellectual property rights, government procurement,

and trade and sustainable development. EFTA agreed to “abolish all customs duties on industrial products while the Philippines will gradually lower or abolish its duties on the vast majority of such products.” Lopez said the agreement will come into force once ratified by the four EFTA member-countries. “This is an exciting news for the tuna industry because the EFTA has more liberal rules of origin or regime on tuna products,” he said. He urged tuna industry players to take advantage of the new trade deal and the inclusion of the country in the EU’s GSP+ in December 2014. In 2015, he said the EU became the country’s third largest export partner after coming in fourth in the previous year. Lopez said the country’s exports to the EU grew by 27 percent in the first half of 2015 due to the inclusion of a range of products into the GSP+. In terms of tuna, he said the Philippines is now the See EXPORTS, page A11

Health: Foundation of community’s resilience

Friday, September 2, 2016

By BONG D. FABE Contributing Editor

IN DISASTER preparedness, the safety of the community is of utmost importance. And health is the foundation of this safety. T h i s , a c c ord i ng t o Athena “Nenen” Banza, Johanniter International Assistance-Philippines program coordinator, as she stressed on the importance of health in relation to disaster preparedness and resiliency-building. “Health is our first line of defense for survival,” she said during the simple turnover ceremonies of health centers whose construction was funded by Johanniter through its partner organization, Balay Mindanaw Foundation, Inc. (BMFI). The construction of the health centers is the core of BMFI’s Community-Based Disaster and Health Preparedness to Strengthen the Resilience of 18 DisasterProne Barangays in Cagayan de Oro City project.

HEALTH IS WEALTH. Nenen Banza, program coordinator of Johanniter International Assistance (second from left), poses with (left to right) Eileen Ipulan Bautista, Balay Mindanaw DR3AM coordinator; Mambuaya Barangay Chairman Fernando Daug; Dr. William Bernardo, CHO project coordinator; and Dr. Ignacio Moreno, city health consultant during the turn-over of the new health center to the barangay. Photo by Bong D. Fabe Aside from Johanniter International Assistance, funding support was also extended by the German Humanitarian Assistance. The project was implemented in partnership with the City

Government of Cagayan de Oro, Department of Health through the City Health Office, and City Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council. “We in Johanniter are

very happy to be of assistance to you,” said Banza, a native of Wao, Lanao del Sur, referring to the host barangays of Mambuaya, Lumbia and Patag. She narrated that when

BMFI proposed the project, Johanniter did not think twice of supporting it knowing that health is one of the pillars of resiliency-building. “A community’s resilience — the capacity to

survive and bounce back — is very important. But how can one survive or bounce back if his/her health is not very good?” she asked, as she quoted the saying “an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure.” Banza disclosed that humanitarian organizations are presently overhauling its thrust — from disaster response to preparedness and building resilience. “Humanitarian organizations have now realized that always doing response work is very expensive. That is why we are now into preparing communities against disaster and building their resiliency,” she said. A resilient and prepared community can save much resources during and after emergencies which is why “let’s not wait for an emergency; let’s be prepared now!” she added. The construction of the health centers is just part of Balay Mindanaw’s continuing journey with See HEALTH, page A11

they will both respect us and also count us as their close friends. Many times the kids who rebel and make bad choices are the ones with parents who just make strict rules, but they are not close to their children. It’s usually the kids who are close to their parents who really respect, love, and want to care for their parents when they’re old. But no matter how old your children are, it’s never too late to start being a better parent. Why not ask Jesus to forgive you for all your mistakes and to take charge, so He can start changing you with His love, power, and wisdom? It’s only with Jesus in complete charge of your character that you can become the parent and friend your kids need. Just Think a Minute.

Another claim made by the lawyer is that Napoles also gave campaign funds to a candidate for a national position during the 2016 elections. The candidate won, Baligod said in his

interview, capping his disclosures with a serious charge: that the Aquino government sabotaged the pork barrel investigation initially pursued by De Lima, and then handled by Morales, the Magsaysay awardee. This is of course a very serious accusation that casts grave doubts about the prestigious award--said to be Asia’s version of Europe’s Nobel Peace Prize---that the Ramon Magsaysay Awards Foundation bestowed on Morales on Wednesday.

DENR to intensify info drive on air pollution THE Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has vowed to be more aggressive in informing the public about the dangers of air pollution, with the new air quality monitoring system in Metro Manila now in place. The DENR, through its

Environmental Management Bureau (EMB), can now provide residents with the most up-to-date information about the air they breathe straight from the monitoring stations in 13 strategic locations in the metropolis. EMB Director Gilbert

Gonzales said DENR Secretary Gina Lopez’s marching order was to intensify the information campaign against air pollution by providing regular updates to the public about pollution levels using various media like television, news websites and LED advertising displays.

curate and regular updates on how good or bad the air is, local chief executives are better informed to make sound decisions in improving air quality in their areas of jurisdiction. The public is also advised of what they can do in cases when air quality gets really bad and affect their health,” Gonzales said. The DENR has already finished installing continuous ambient monitoring stations (CAMS) in 13 LGUs across Metro Manila, giving the public real-time measurement of particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM 10), also known as particle pollution, and parameters like wind speed and direction. Particle pollution includes fine particles that mainly come from motor vehicles, wood burning heaters and industry. During bushfires or dust storms, particle pollution

Gonzales said the data gathered from the air quality monitoring stations will assist local government units (LGUs) in dealing with air pollution problems and help residents avoid the most dangerous air quality situations. “By providing fast, ac-

Local leaders of Sibagat town undergo training on governance By Wilson J. Hormeguera Contributor

THE Governance and Leadership Institute (GLI) of Xavier University recently facilitated the Executive and Legislative Agenda Formulation Workshop for the local government unit of Sibagat, Agusan del Sur.

The workshop covered sessions on vision setting and the analysis of local challenges in areas of economy, institutional system, infrastructure, social and environmental programs, including defining the goals and initiatives for each sector. Public servants from

both executive and legislative branches envision the local government of Sibagat as — “A municipality with sustainable socio-economic development by 2019” — the last year of their leaders’ office term. For the local leaders, this new vision can be achieved through increased house-

hold income, safe and secured environment, accessible barangay roads, available potable water, quality basic social services, achieved basic education, and high rate of public satisfaction. Neophyte Mayor Liza Evangelista of the munici-

pality of Sibagat expressed her gratitude to XU-GLI for facilitating the ELA workshop. “The processes and outputs of the ELA workshop went beyond our expectations,” she said. “These will surely guide us in making

our services better.” Held from August 16 to 18 in Amontay, Nasipit, Agusan del Norte, facilitating this ELA formulation workshop formed part of XU-GLI’s mission of building the capacities of public servants in Mindanao.

Davao City needs two new sanitary landfills DAVAO City––The City Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) is scouting for two new areas in the city – one in the north and the other in the south – for new sanitary landfills, CENRO chief Engr. Liza Madrazo said. This after the sevenhectare sanitary landfill in New Carmen, Tugbok which was opened in 2010, has almost exceeded its capacity and is estimated to last for two more years. Speaking during Thursday’s iSpeak Forum at the Davao City Hall, Madraza said she is proposing a P30 million budget to put up the two sanitary landfills that will measure five hectares each. She said they have yet

to decide where to locate the new landfills but added they will finalize the details early next year. The CENRO chief suggested the two landfills be put up to reduce the collection cost and make the collection of wastes easier for the agency which deploys around 80 trucks to collect garbage for 24 hours in dif-

ferent collections points. The landfill’s capacity is 10 years but the daily volume of garbage collected estimated at 600 tons a day has filled up the New Carmen landfill faster, she said. She said 60 percent of the garbage comes from households and 40 percent from business establishments See landfills, page A11

DOH: Fight vs. dengue must be community affair

KOR ONA DA L C it y – – Health officials in Region 12 are asking for public support in the fight against dengue as 36 deaths were recorded since January and more than 8,000 persons have been inflicted with the deadly disease. Dr. Frank Mateo, acting regional director of Department of Health (DOH-12), said fighting dengue needs

community participation. “It is not just a family matter that we clean our homes of mosquito breeding sites, it must be a community effort,” Mateo said. Mateo said data gathered by the Regional Epidemiology Surveillance Unit (RESU) showed dengue cases in the region have been rising sharply since June when the rainy season began.

“Dengue cases spiked starting June in Region 12 when rainy season began and this is alarming,” Mateo said. Region 12 is composed of the provinces of North Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, South Cotabato, Sarangani and the cities of Cotabato, Kidapawan, Tacurong, Koronadal and Gen. Santos. “Dengue is rising in all

areas,” he added, citing reports both from government and private hospitals in the region. “The spike was about 76 percent as compared to the same period last year,” he added. Mateo said a more than 100 percent increase was noted in Gen. Santos and Cotabato cities. “Dengue carrying mosquitoes stay in cool area

and not in free flowing waterways like irrigation canal,” he said. “They stay in stagnant water areas, containers, and stagnant water ways.” “If you clean your surrounding and your neighbors don’t, chances are the disease is not contained,” he said in Filipino. Mateo said once a dengue case is confirmed in the

village or purok, all residents are already at risk of getting the virus. “If your child or any family member has fever, doctor’s intervention is a must because the ordinary fever could be caused by aedes egypti carrying mosquitoes,” he said. Mateo said home medication can be done only after the patient was checked

Caltex Fuel Your School PH cycle 2 raises P3M to help 50,000 public high school students in Davao City Davao City, Philippines, August 25, 2016 – When grade 7 students of Binugao National High school walked into their classroom one Monday morning in July, they were greeted by a giant white screen that stood out in the room like a spaceship in the middle of a durian plantation. Their teacher excitedly announced that they have just received an interactive projector as winners of the Caltex Fuel Your School program. The entire class that was used to the old-school ways of chalk, blackboard and Manila paper was mesmerized as the teacher began to demonstrate animation in a PowerPoint presentation, show videos and create diagrams that can be manipulated with a flick of a pen. Similar scenes of engaged students were reported by the 29 other public high schools that were shortlisted as beneficiaries of Caltex’s fuel to donate program. Caltex Fuel Your School (FYS) is estimated to benefit at least 200 teachers and 50,000 students in Davao City’s highest need senior public high schools. FYS successfully raised P3 million which was used to purchase much needed learning equipment in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) classroom subjects requested by teachers for their students. Piso para sa Eskwela From June 1 to 30, 2016, Caltex Fuel Your School donated P1 for every one liter purchase of Caltex with Techron or Delo Sports diesel engine oil from any of the 22 Caltex stations or lubricants business partners in Davao City. The students played a vital role in raising awareness and fuels ups for the program. Aside from tapping social media, they created jingles, cheers and homemade FYS flyers throughout Davao metropolis informing their communities that fuelling up at the nearest Caltex station will help them get their much need educational materials. Allan Orillan, Caltex retailer, can attest to the FYS buzz surrounding his Caltex stations,” The students did a great job. I

Evaluation. It’s a striking word. Bangcud National High School has recently conducted a Department Bulletin Evaluation. It was tough. Everybody has to get involved, the higher our goals, the greater task we have to do. A lot of things to prepare and it made everybody very busy. There were sleepless nights but all those painstaking work have contributed to the betterment of oneselfhis/her creativity, talent and skills. The day came……evaluators were ready. The presenters were ready but with knee knocking each other, in fear and excitement. So with these mixed emotions, the evaluation began. The board of evaluators headed by the School Principal, Mrs. Dinaflor L. Raagas have ventured the journey of scrutinizing every detail of facts presented in each

A10 Teacher’s Views Why Some Children Have Difficulties Learning to Read By BEVERLY R. ANSELMO, Teacher I Valbueco Elementary School, Lantapan District Lantapan, Bukidnon

Children may struggle with reading for a variety of reasons, including limited experience with books, speech and hearing problems, and poor phonemic awareness. Good readers are phonemically aware, understand the alphabetic principle, apply these skills in a rapid and fluent manner, possess strong vocabularies and syntactical and grammatical skills, and relate reading to their own experiences. Difficulties in any of these areas can impede reading development. Further, learning to read begins far before children enter formal schooling. Children who have stimulating literacy experiences from

birth onward have an edge in vocabulary development, understanding the goals of reading, and developing an awareness of print and literacy concepts. We know from research that reading is a languagebased activity. Reading does not develop naturally, and for many children, specific decoding, word recognition, and reading comprehension skills must be taught directly and systematically. We have also learned that preschool children benefit significantly from being read to. The evidence suggests strongly that educators can foster reading development by providing kindergarten children with instruction that develops print con-

cepts, familiarity with the purposes of reading and writing, age-appropriate vocabulary and language comprehension skills, and familiarity with -the language structure. Substantial evidence shows that many children in the 1st and 2nd grades and beyond will require explicit instruction to develop the necessary phoneme awareness, phonics, spelling, and reading comprehension skills. But for these children, this will not be sufficient. For youngsters having difficulties learning to read, each of these foundational skills should be taught and integrated into textual reading formats to ensure sufficient levels of fluency, automaticity, and understanding.

Problems in Numeracy Skills of Elementary Pupils By Ritchel R. Rosas Master Teacher-I Valbueco Elementary School Lantapan District

“Mathematics is not just about numbers, equations, computations, or algorithms it’s about understanding” - William Paul Thurston Math disabilities can arise at nearly any stage of a child’s academic development. While very little is known about the neurobiological or environmental causes of different skill types. These deficits can exist independently of one another or can occur in combination. All can impact a child’s ability to progress in mathematics. The main purpose of mathematics teaching is to enable students to solve problems in daily life. Unfortunately, according to the latest national test results, most students lack mathematical problem solving skills. This proves to be one of the reasons why overall achievement in mathematics is considered

quite low. It also reflects that students have difficulties in comprehending mathematical problems affecting the process of problem-solving. But as a teacher we need to help this pupil regarding with this problems. According to research these are the very effective way applicable for them. Implement a problem-solving program in which students solve just one word problem a day. Instead of assigning three or four problems at a time, present a single problem and include class time to debrief and discuss the solution. Mix up the types of problems you assign so your students are reviewing a variety of content knowledge and skills over time. Keep problem solving sessions short at first - no more than 10 to 15 minutes a day. As students begin to enjoy these sessions, occasionally include longer problems that require more persistence. Refer to word problems as “puzzlers,” “brain teasers,” or “stumpers,” and present them as fun challenges

rather than dreaded math problems. Alternate cooperative learning strategies with independent work to add an element of fun and to stimulate higher level thinking .However, even when allowing students to work with others, provide time for them to read and think about the problem independently before discussing it with a partner or team. Encourage Creative Approaches after the first student shows how to solve the problem, ask, “How many more ways can we solve this problem?” Keep a class tally of all the different strategies. It’s amazing how many different ways kids will dream up when you show that you value “outside of the box” thinking. This step motivates kids to pay attention during the discussion and it encourages creativity. They quickly figure out that if they want to be called on to share their strategy, they will have to come up with novel methods of solving problems.

The Importance of Reading Comprehension By April Khor R. Alsula, Teacher II Valvueco Elementary School, Lantapan District, Lantapan, Bukidnon

Imagine your employer gives an important document to read and tells he expects a summary of the material on his desk by tomorrow. You see it is written in a language totally foreign to you. you may try to scan the document. You wouldn’t have any idea what the words you just read actually meant. How would you feel? Upset? Discouraged? Reading’s goal is to derive meaning but sadly, classrooms across the nation are interspersed with students who experience

the same type of frustration daily. They lacked adequate reading comprehension skills to do what is expected of them. Without which, reading is simply following words on a page to page while sounding them out. while people read for many different reasons, the chief goal is to derive some understanding of what the writer is trying to convey and make use of that information – whether for fact gathering, learning a new skill, or for pleasure. That’s why reading comprehension skills are so important to gather any information to

enjoy life’s richness. Reading is a multifaceted process that develops only with practice. reading comprehension should be emphasized in the process. Students can parrot words on a page but if they don’t have the necessary comprehension skills they will not be able to make predictions about what will happen next, monitor their understanding of content, sequence or characters, clarify confusing parts of the text, or connect what they’re reading to their own experience or prior knowledge. And that is what true comprehension is all about.

Why there should be disbursement and Bookkeeping By Remma Jane E. Mansamay

Disbursement is the act of paying out or disbursing money, such as money paid out to run a business, cash expenditures, dividend payments, and/or the amounts that a lawyer might have to pay out on a person’s behalf in connection with a transaction. Disbursing money is part of cash flow. If cash flow is negative, meaning that disbursements are higher than revenues, it can be an early warning of potential insolvency. Disbursements measure the money flowing out of a business and may differ from profit or loss. Managers use the

ledgers to determine how much cash is disbursed, and they track its use to determine spending ratios. Since the ledger records the check numbers of the checks issued, managers can determine whether checks are missing or written incorrectly. If earnings do not come as needed to cover expenses, a profit is still reported while cash is running low, which can lead to insolvency. This can be prevented if there’s sound bookkeeping which has a systematic recording of financial aspects of business transactions in appropriate books of account. Having this will al-

low you to access any valuable information you may need quickly and efficiently. Because Keeping records allows your bookkeeping department to get the data when you need it. Importance of Bookkeeping All businesses and f i n a n c i a l i n s t itut e s , without exception, need to keep accurate and readily accessible records of their financial transactions and this importance of bookkeeping is like blood for accounting departments. Ma ny or g a n i z at i on s other than businesses also need to do it, and some individuals too.

Manipulative Toys as tool in developing Fine motor skills, Self-confidence and Socialization Skills By ANTHONY EDMOND G. DUMAOG Kindergarten Teacher I Guilang-guilang Elementary School

Most manipulative toys provide opportunity for the children to learn. It plays an important part of the early childhood life because children use them to be prepared on their variety of skills. Children exercise their muscles through manipulative toys. It engages pupils to de-

velop their imagination and encourage them to interact with other pupils. In my classroom, I allow my kindergarten pupils to use manipulative toys so that they can easily recognize the alphabets, numbers and words. It captures their interest and attention and develop positive attitude

toward learning. In that way, they are not only learning but they also developed fine motor skills, gain self- confidence and socialization skills. As a teacher, we should always guide our pupils on how to use properly the manipulative toys during play and how to organize and keep these when they are done using it.

SUMMER READING CAMP 2016 By CHERRY JANE Q. LOMPON Teacher I Impakibel Elementary School

Reading is the very important thing that the learners should know. This is the tool to make them easy to learn and enjoy studying. Summer Reading Camp is an activity which aimed to help the pupils productively enjoy their vacation through spending their time in reading at the same time letting

the children appreciate the value of reading habit. The pupils who were also named as “Campers” were very excited. Reading camp is not purely on reading activities but they learn also on counting and solving word problem and learning more on how to pronounce words correctly through games given by the teachers. The

campers are enhanced in their speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. There is so much fun doing the reading camp activities as the campers were so excited and full of energy as they participates in the different activities. The activity ended-up with much fun and fulfillment.The campers and the teachers are so thankful for having a Summer Reading Camp!

Director Vizminda Osorio, the partner donors donated data loggers that will be installed in the CAMS to record and transmit data to EMB headquarters or operation center for processing and dissemination to the public. “We welcome partnerships with local government units, private sector and industry organizations to help us ensure that each monitoring station is well-maintained and data are maximized for public information,” Osorio said. Each monitoring station provides an Air Quality Index (AQI), which is a color-coded tool for telling the public how clean or polluted the air is, and recommending steps people can take, if necessary, to reduce their daily exposure to pollution. When the AQI is in green, it means that the air quality is good; yellow means fair; light brown for unhealthy for sensitive groups (children, the elderly and peope with cardio-pulmonary diseases); red for very unhealthy; and purple for acutely unhealthy. If the index reaches light brown, red or purple, the public is advised to stay indoors and limit outdoor activity. The guidelines for PM10 and PM2.5 are set at 150 micrograms per normal cubic meter (ug/Ncm) and 75 ug/ Ncm, respectively based on 24-hour averaging. The monitoring stations are located in the following areas: Hall of Justice, Open Ground, Marikina City Hall; Caloocan City Hall Annex, North Caloocan; Don Bosco Barangay Hall, Parañaque City; Pateros Elementary School, San Pedro, Pateros; Malabon Polytechnic Institute, Malabon City; Navotas City Hall, M. Naval Street, Navotas City; Rohm and Hass Warehouse Compound, CAA Road, Las Piñas City; Bilibid open ground compound, Muntinlupa City; TUP Taguig Campus, East Service Road, Western Bicutan, Taguig City; Danny Floro Street, Oranbo, Pasig City; Plaza Hardin, Martinez Highway, Addition Hill, Mandaluyong City; PAL Compound, Pasay City; and Pinaglabanan Shrine along Pinaglabanan Street, San Juan City.

number one supplier of “tuna prepared as sardines.” It is also the top exporter of products to Europe under the category of “fish prepared or preserved but not minced.” To ensure that the gains of the GSP+ are sustained, Lopez cited the need for tuna producers and exporters maintain their adherence to the product quality standards set by the EU as well as ensure that the rights of their workers are respected. The country and the fishing sector must also maintain its vigilant stance against illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, he said. He commended the efforts of local tuna companies in keeping up with the requirements set under the GSP+. Lopez cited tuna canners Alliance Select Foods International, Celebes Canning Corporation, General Tuna Corporation, Ocean Canning Corporation, Philbest Canning Corporation, Seatrade Canning Corporaion, Citra Mina Group of Companies and the RD Group of Companies. “Your efforts to meet the requirements of the EU market have resulted to the increased competitiveness of our exports in fisheries and generated more job opportunities forour people,” he said.

General Santos City, dubbed the country’s “tuna capital,” has hosted the National Tuna Congress since it was first held in 1999. The city hosts six of the country’s seven tuna canneries and other related ventures that generate an average of nearly US$ 300 million in annual export receipts. (MindaNews)

by a competent physician to determine the extent of virus. “That is why our campaign is focused on information dissemination and community efforts in containing dengue cases,” Mateo said as he asked everyone to clean the surroundings, destroy breeding sites and be safe. In the Maguindanao, Dr. Tahir Sulaik, Maguindanao provincial health chief has reminded Maguindanaons to seek medical attention immediately when a family member is nursing a fever. “Acting quickly will save lives,” said Sulaik, also Maguindanao Integrated Provincial Health (IPHO) chief, adding he was sad that, despite repeated appeals, rural folks bring their sick children or family members to the hospital when they are already in critical condition. Since January, Sulaik revealed, that six persons have died due to dengue. To date, 428 dengue cases have been reported, about six percent higher compared to the same period last year. “Don’t wait any minute, bring your children or family member to the hospital immediately before it will be late,” Sulaik said, adding that the Maguindanao provincial hospital is full of dengue patients. Dr. Kadil Sinolinding, DOH-ARMM regional secretary said as of August 16 this year, 1,575 dengue cases have been reported, more than double the number recorded in 2015 in the same period with only 680. ARMM, composed of the provinces of Maguindanao, Lanao del Sur, Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi, recorded 25 deaths. In 2015, only 15 deaths caused by dengue were reported. Across the countr y, DOH has recorded a total of 84,085 suspected dengue cases from January 1 to August 6 this year, about 15 percent higher as compared to the same period last year. This year, 372 people have died. During the same period last year, DOH listed 228 deaths from 72,627 cases. (PNA)

and wet markets. “We continue to talk with the vendors in the market, even the stall owners, to segregate their garbage,” he said. The city runs a composting site in Maa for biode-

gradable wastes. She proposed that each of the city’s 182 barangays should own a garbage truck to make garbage collection more orderly. She said that Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) will deliver the Japanese technology that will convert used cooking oil to biodiesel in February next year. The city is the sole of beneficiary of JICA in the Philippines for this project worth P4 million to reuse the throwaway cooking oil as fuel for government vehicles. In January this year, the city government signed a memorandum of agreement with 13 barangays and 10 companies in the city that expressed intent to contribute their used oil to the city. Madrazo added that they have so far stored some 10,000 liters of used oil at the CENRO’s facility in Ma-a while noting that JICA’s requirement is only about 1,000 liters a day to sustain the program. She added 90 percent of the used cooking oil can be converted into fuel. (Antonio L. Colina IV /MindaNews)

“The operation of the FDC Misamis power project will greatly boost the supply security in the Mindanao region. And this is not only because of its large capacity but also due to its strategic connection to the grid. With this development, our system will be more reliable and the quality of service will be higher,” remarked Ambrocio Rosales, OIC Head of Mindanao System Operations Department of NGCP. Pangilinan added: “Mindanao has been suffering from perennial power crisis for decades, given its high dependence on hydro power compounded by the increasing frequency of the El Niño phenomenon. Our project will finally put an end to this recurring power crisis that has plagued the region and hopefully drive the much needed economic development in Mindanao.” Upon commissioning of its third unit, FDC Misamis will be supplying a total of about 500 MW with the inclusion of its 100 MW Apo Geothermal IPPA contract. Long term contractual commitments have been secured for more than 85% of the project’s net capacity with various distribution utilities and large industrial customers in Mindanao. “The entire Filinvest group is committed to Mindanao’s development. This is the biggest investment we have made among the numerous ventures we have undertaken in the region,” Jonathan Gotianun, Chairman of Filinvest Development Corp. (FDC) commented. Filinvest also has significant investments in real estate, banking and

sugar in Mindanao. FDC, the holding company of the Gotianun-led Filinvest Group, is one of the Philippines’ leading conglomerates with interests in property development, banking and financial services, hotel and resort management, power generation and the sugar industry. As of June 30, 2016, FDC had assets valued at P448.56 billion with stockholders’ equity at P100.54 billion.

Lumbia and Mambuaya. “These barangays were chosen because of their strategic locations,” said Dr. William Bernardo, program coordinator for the project. “We’ll start with health centers that can respond to emergencies and disasters,” Dilla said as expressed gratefulness to Balay Mindanaw for its “great contribution to making Cagayan de Oro resilient to disaster and health emergencies.” The newly-constructed health centers have ample provisions for their eventual expansion to become infirmaries in the very near future, Bernardo explained. “We are constructing these infirmaries slowly but surely based on available resources. If you noticed, the design of this health center is a two-storey building although at present we only have one storey. This is so that we will no longer demolish any part of the structure if resources become available for the expansion of the building; we will only add another floor and rooms,” he added. The respective barangay chairmen of barangays Mambuaya, Lumbia, and Patag each pledged to take care of the health centers for the good of their respective constituents and residents of neighboring barangays. Chairman Fernando Daug, whose Barangay Mambuaya is the “catchbasin” of neighboring hinterland barangays Besigan, Dansolihon, Bayanga and Tignapoloan, expressed gratefulness to BMFI and Johanniter International Assistance for “this great help to our barangay.” “We are forever grateful to you for prioritizing our barangay, especially our health center. It has been our dream to have a hospital here which is why we have reserve this space (referring to the health center site) for that very purpose,” he said. “We humbly accept,” Chairman Wilhelm Valencia simply said when BMFI personnel, led by Executive Director Rochelle Mordeno, and Johanniter’s Athena “Nenen” Banza. Valencia was, of course, referring to the health center building and to every Barangay Lumbia resident’s responsibility of taking care of the center. Barangay Patag’s Marycor Calizo, on the other hand, expressed her thanks to Balay Mindanaw for finally making the barangay

one of its partners. She also thanked the Moreno administration for recognizing Patag’s potential as one of the city’s “catchbasin” to help take care of patients, even those from neighboring barangays that cannot be accommodated at the city’s JR Borja Memorial Hospital during health emergencies. “This health center is a symbol of our partnership,” she said.

Let us all be one in formulating a positive change,” said Marcellana, a senior Communication student. Other “light for life” activities were also held at the Sto. Domingo Church in Quezon City, Baclaran Church in Parañaque City, Monumento Circle in Caloocan City, People’s Park in Valenzuela City, and at the Alabang Public Market in Muntinlupa City. Similar activities were also held in various churches, communities and workplaces all over Metro Manila. According to the Stop the Killings Network, the Duterte administration must act to stop the killing of suspected drug pushers and users. More future events “We unite to demand an end to the killings in the name of war on drugs. Justice and due process must be upheld. Human rights must by no means be violated,” it said. The multisectoral group also asked the authorities to investigate and prosecute the masterminds of the illegal drug trade, including their protectors and the perpetrators of summary executions. “Let us now allow the solution to the drug problem constitute a forsaking of democratic processes and an abandonment of our humanity,” it said. The network also vows to stage a series of activities in various churches, schools, communities, workplaces, and in other areas in the days to come to raise awareness and encourage more people to join the crusade to protect life.

Statement the two parties signed at the end of the five-day Oslo talks on August 26, their ceasefire committees will “reconcile and develop their separate unilateral ceasefire orders into a single unified bilateral agreement within 60 days” from August 26. The proposed bilateral ceasefire is a major breakthrough in the three decades of peace negotiations across six Presidential administrations -- Corazon Aquino, Fidel Ramos, Joseph Estrada, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, Benigno Simeon Aquino and the President Rodrigo Duterte -- as it will only be the second since 1986. “We are very hopeful that the ongoing peace process will eventually result into a lasting peace that the current and future generations of Filipinos will experience and enjoy,” Nograles added.
