Sinas tells critics to ‘move on’ By Joel E. Zurbano, Rio N. Araja, and Willie Casas
P
RESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte’s first order to his new national police chief Maj. Gen. Debold Sinas, whose appointment has been intensely criticized by several sectors due to alleged human rights abuses, is to step up the anti-drug campaign, the latter said Wednesday.
The police officials were charged for violating City Ordinance 12 of Taguig City, which requires the wearing of masks in public, and Republic Act 11332, or the Mandatory Reporting of Notifiable Diseases and Health Events of Public Health Concern Act. “That cannot be avoided. You’ve been following me since my stint in Region 7 until now. I’m just showing what we are doing right and our accomplishments,” Sinas said. Meanwhile, former Southern Tagalog police commander Brig. Gen. Vicente Danao officially assumed his post as NCRPO director, replacing Sinas. Sinas, who said he would focus on curbing corruption in the PNP and extremism, also said: “And we should really do our duty to curb or stop the spread of illegal drugs in various parts
of the Philippines. The President wants to boost drug sweeps, especially for high-value targets. Duterte recently said around 2 in 100 Filipinos were still addicted to illicit drugs, some 4 years into his controversial antinarcotics drive that has left thousands dead. Sinas is the latest commander to rise to the top post under Duterte having led operations in bloody hotspots of his war on drugs, during which thousands of urban poor have been killed, many in mysterious circumstances. Rights groups accuse police of executing suspected dealers. Police say those killed in their operations were legitimate targets who resisted arrest. “What lies ahead for the Filipino people with Sinas’ appointment is a bloody party of human rights violations,” said Cristina Palabay of rights group Karapatan.
Sinas told a Laging handa briefing: “His very first instruction is to continue, intensify, strengthen the campaign against illegal drugs.” But while he was being criticized, which included his controversial birthday celebration with colleagues last May during the pandemic without observing health protocols, he told his critics to move on. “For now, we should put the mañanita issue to rest, it was already investigat-
ed, it’s now on the prosecutor’s hands,” said Sinas on the sidelines of the leadership turnover ceremony at the National Capital Region Police Office in Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig City. Sinas was referring to the criminal cases filed before the Taguig City prosecutors office against him and other high ranking police officers because of the gathering which the PNP – home to 205,000 police -- earlier described as a mañanita or early morning birthday serenade.

mix of Filipino and English during a recorded public address Tuesday night. “If you have a big, big syndicate, or a ghost project that belongs to the director...son of a bitch, I will give you P50,000. Just whisper it to me, anybody.” The President said if the contract is huge, he would give the whistleblower even more. “I’ll give you P100,000 and I will keep your identity secret until I reach my grave,” he added. The reward offer is part of the Duterte administration’s intensified campaign against graft and corruption in the government. Duterte recently tasked the Department of Justice (DOJ) to carry out a bureaucracy-wide corruption probe as he vowed to zero in on corruption in the last two years of his term. Duterte warned corrupt officials that they are not indispensable. “Do not ever think that you are indispensable in the scheme of things in the government. There are many Filipino graduates who are honest,” he said. “A lot of people are out of work now, so those of you with government jobs, take care of your position. Do not allow even a dent of anomaly to go through your office,” he said. Duterte also read out the names of government personnel from the Department of Public Works and Highways, Bureau of Immigration, and Local Water Utilities Administration who were allegedly involved in anomalies within their respective agencies. On Monday night, he summoned suspended immigration officials in Malacañang and gave them a dressing-down. In an interview over state-run PTV4, presidential spokesman Harry Roque said informants played a crucial role in combating corruption. “Our appeal to the public is, corruption will not stop unless you give us information,” he said. He also offered assurances that the identities of informants would not be revealed. Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra, who heads the DOJ task force against corruption, said the rewards offered by the President would be given only for tips that actually lead to the filing of charges. Since the DOJ-led task force has no special funding for this purpose, Guevarra said he believes the rewards will be drawn from the President’s intelligence funds. “The President has the proper authority to draw from funds like that because it is a very legitimate matter,” he said.

WASHINGTON—The leaders of close US allies on Tuesday telephoned President-elect Joe Biden and pledged to work together but in an extraordinary break, America’s top diplomat Mike Pompeo insisted that Donald Trump would remain in power. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel all offered congratulations in calls to Biden, who a week earlier edged
out Trump in the presidential election. “I’m letting them know that America is back. We’re going to be back in the game. It’s not America alone,” Biden told reporters in his home state of Delaware. The transition team said Biden planned to work with the Europeans on fighting the Covid-19 pandemic as well as climate change -- one of many areas on which Trump sharply differed with the allies. On the call with Merkel, who has been savaged by Trump over her wel-
coming of migrants and Germany’s modest defense expenditure, Biden in a statement “praised her leadership” and called for “revitalizing the trans-Atlantic relationship.” Johnson, who had a warm relationship with Trump, spoke for 20 minutes with Biden and wrote later on Twitter that he hoped to work with him on “building back better from the pandemic,” employing the slogan from the Democrat’s campaign.

‘Ulysses’...
weather bureau said. Ulysses grazed the Polilio Islands and Catanduanes -- which was devastated by Typhoon “Rolly” less than two weeks ago -- before hitting Luzon’s mainland, making its presence felt with intense winds and rain across the country’s eastern seaboard. The weather service also warned of flooding, landslides and storm surges several meters high along parts of the east coast and in the capital. As a result, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) was put on red alert ahead of the typhoon’s arrival. MMDA chairman Danilo Lim said frontline personnel were on standby to render assistance in road clearing, rescue and quick response, traffic management, and other operations to different areas in the National Capital Region, which was placed under Signal No. 3 on Tuesday. Lim said ambulances, rubber boats, truck-mounted cranes, backhoes, water pumps, and rescue equipment will be immediately deployed to different areas in Metro Manila when necessary. The operations of the Pasig River Ferry Service were also suspended. “We need to be prepared for any eventuality. We have coordinated with local disaster risk reduction and management councils in Metro Manila concerning the implementation of disaster preparedness measures in their localities for the safety of the public,” he said.
The Metropolitan Public Safety Office (MPSO) has been tasked to monitor the movement of the typhoon and possible flash floods that may result from torrential rains. Quezon City and Manila City have most of the flood-prone areas in Metro Manila. All 64 of its pumping stations are operational, the MMDA said. The Ninoy Aquino International Airport announced the cancellation of flight operations beginning midnight until 6 AM of Thursday. Malacanang suspended government work and public-school classes in all levels in Metro Manila and several other regions starting Wednesday afternoon until Thursday due to the possible impact of Ulysses. Government work and classes were also suspended in Regions II, III, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Region V, and the Cordillera Administrative Region. Government agencies involved in the delivery of basic and health services, preparedness or response to disaster and calamities, and other vital services will continue their operations, the order stated. Thousands of people were already evacuated from their homes in storm-battered parts of the country Wednesday as the third typhoon in as many weeks barreled towards the Bicol region. The country is in a similar situation to that in 2004, when four strong tropical cyclones from November to December devastated eight regions. With Macon Ramos-Araneta
Major Rosalino Ibay Jr., head of the Manila Police District Special Mayor’s Reaction Team (MPD SMaRT) who was among the first responders at the crime scene, identified Rebato. Interviewed on Super Radyo DZBB, Police Captain Henry Navarro, Homicide Division Chief and Acting PIO of the Manila Police District, said Rebato survived COVID-19 but suffered from depression.
Rebato was supposed to resign his post when he met Abadilla on Wednesday, Navarro said. Abadilla was the eighth judge to be killed since the Duterte administration came to power in 2016 and the 51st in the legal profession during that time, records showed. Chief Justice Diosdado Peralta expressed his sadness over Abadilla’s death, as he ordered stricter security in courthouses across the country. Peralta said Abadilla’s passing was ‘a big loss to the judiciary,” since he knew her as an “upright and highly-compe-
tent magistrate.” In a statement, Peralta said that although courthouses have security protocols, he has directed Court Administrator Jose Midas Marquez to “employ stricter measures to prevent incidents like these from happening again.” He said Abadilla worked at the Supreme Court as a law clerk for more than a decade before she became a judge. He offered his condolences to the judge’s family, whom he said he knows “very well” because they are also from his province of Ilocos Norte.
an office” when he was already given the opportunity to substantiate his allegation that he was cheated during the vice presidential race in 2016 national elections. The vice president’s manifestation came after Marcos on Monday sought the recusal of Leonen from further handling his poll protest, citing the justice’s alleged bias against him and his family. He claimed Leonen had delayed the case. Marcos lawyer Vic Rodriguez lashed back at the Robredo camp for tagging the former senator as “spoiled brat” for
seeking Leonen’s recusal. “We do not reply nor dignify Mrs. Robredo’s resort to ad hominem and usual gutter level of discourse,” Rodriguez said, in a text message. “Maybe, perhaps, if they have a stronger legal argument that is credible then we may indulge them with our legal and intelligent reply,” he added. Reacting to the Presidential Electoral Tribunal’s gag order for both Marcos and Robredo camp, Rodriguez said: “We have always maintained our obedi-
ence and respect to all of the tribunal’s directive including the order to refrain from discussing the merits of our case.” “However, we should also take note of the right of the Filipino people to know what is happening in the election protest of former senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. as they are the ultimate stakeholders whose interest in the resolution of this controversy is vital, and thus must, with delicate balance, be given access to general matters without dwelling on the merits,” he added.

The country’s 20th storm this year reached its peak intensity of 140 kilometers per hour before it hit Quezon – as one person died and three more were missing in Bicol even before the tropical cyclone hit land, regional disaster officials in Bicol reported. The Office of Civil Defense-Region 5 said a 68-year-old man reportedly died on the roof of his house in Daet, Camarines Norte, with no additional details given on the cause of his death. Three men from Vinzons, Camarines Norte are also missing, said OCD-5, as it also recorded at least four landslides. Meanwhile, rivers overflowed, and roads were rendered impassable by Ulysses’ onslaught across the island province of Catanduanes.

Once the vaccine supply is available, the government would prioritize the poor in the distribution, he added. “(Finance Secretary) Sonny (Dominguez) says that he can borrow money of $300 million. That’s huge. We can purchase the vaccine, but I think it would do as well to also realize that they would prioritize their people first),” he said.
“So, you can expect that within the few months until next year, all of those vaccines produced will be used for the Americans.” The President acknowledged that purchasing the vaccines early would be expensive but noted that the threat of COVID-19 has become less scary as some pharmaceutical firms in the US and China have made progress in developing life-saving cures.
Rody to highlight PH COVID tack in Asean meet PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte will participate in the 37th Asean Summit and Related Summits on Nov. 12-15 via video conference. According to a statement from the Office of the President, Duterte will exchange views with his counterparts on the region’s coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) response and recovery efforts. Duterte will also participate in discussions about future direction of Asean community building, and regional and international developments. He will also advance Philippine positions on public health emergencies cooperation, regional economic integration, migrant workers’ rights, climate change, disaster risk reduction management, counter-terrorism, and the South China Sea issue. Key cabinet members, including the Secretaries of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Industry, and Social Welfare and Development will also be joining the summit. Last April, Duterte urged members of the Asean to work together to counter the adverse social and economic impact of Covid-19 on the regional bloc. “To effectively overcome the challenge of the Covid-19 pandemic, Asean must collaborate and coordinate within our region and beyond,” Duterte said during his address at the Special Asean Summit on Covid-19. Duterte stressed the need to boost production and facilitate intra-Asean trade of vital medicines and medical equipment and supplies. He made the proposal as he emphasized that the Southeast Asian nations’ healthcare systems are under “increasing stress” due to the rise in Covid-19 infections. He said Asean should also remain open for trade to ensure the supply chain connectivity and the smooth flow of goods within the region. The 37th Asean Summit and Related Summits, chaired by Vietnam, will focus on the theme “Cohesive and Responsive Asean”. Vito Barcelo
Palace... From A1 Guevarra told the media forum. “We have just discussed it last night. The President has just given his go signal last night. So we intend to immediately schedule our negotiations with the two water concessionaires in Metro Manila: namely Manila Water and Maynilad,” he added. Guevarra admitted the President did not mention any deadline for the concessionaires to finalize and approve the proposed new contract. He recalled that during the meeting, the review panel explained to the President that in general the proposed new water concession agreements aimed to eliminate the onerous provisions in the previous contracts. “We described to him in general the provisions that will have to go and new provisions that will be incorporated, that will somehow, that will make the water concession agreements more equitable, more transparent and will lessen contingent liabilities on the part of the government plus improving its governance system,” Guevarra stressed. Guevarra refused to give details on whether charges would be filed against those behind the disadvantageous concession agreements. However, the Justice Secretary admitted that during their meeting, Duterte “mentioned the Anti-Graft Law in relation to the original water concession agreements, but gave no specific directive on whether to press charges or not.” Duterte ordered the DOJ to review the concession agreements after discovering onerous provisions in the existing contracts, and after the Permanent Court of Arbitration in Singapore issued a decision stating the Philippine government should pay P7.4 billion to Manila Water and P3.4 billion to Maynilad for the losses they suffered from unenforced water rate hike.

Inmates’ death Prosecutor: Testimony against De Lima not retracted in gang riots ‘inexcusable’ By Rey E. Requejo
A JUSTICE department official on Wednesday said the deaths of 13 inmates in two recent incidents of gang violence inside the New Bilibid Prison was “inexcusable.” “Thirteen deaths are too many. Even one death is not excusable. No death is excusable,” Justice Undersecretary Emmeline Aglipay-Villar told the ABS-CBN News Channel. Villar made the statement after a fresh riot between members of two rival gangs resulted in the death of four inmates and injury to 62 others. The incident happened a month after nine inmates were killed in a similar gangrelated violence inside the NBP. Villar said Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra had already ordered the National Bureau of Investigation to look into the matter. Initial reports from the Bureau of Corrections showed that the riots were triggered by the rivalry between the warring Sigue-Sigue Sputnik and Sigue Sigue Commando gangs. BuCor Director General Gerald Bantag and his deputy, Gabriel Chaclag, should explain how those incidents happened, Villar said. “After the October 9 riot, BuCor conducted Oplan Galugad to try to get all improvised weapons that the PDLs [persons deprived of liberty] managed to make. However, it seems that was not effective with the guns fired this week,” she said. Nonetheless, Aglipay-Villar said there should be more custodial personnel to look after th inmates at the NBP to prevent riots. “Riots tend to easily escalate and deaths happen as we have seen because of congestion of the prison and the custodial personnel to PDL ratio,” she said.

nearby provinces, recover from the current crisis by creating and making good jobs available,” SMC president and COO Ramon S. Ang said. The TESDA program, funded by SMC, was initially opened to former residents of Barangay Taliptip, the future site of the airport, but will be opened to more Bulacan residents and those in nearly provinces in the coming months to help displaced job-seekers The airport project, Ang said, would
significantly help jumpstart the economy by sustaining and creating millions of jobs that would eventually encourage other private companies to start investing in critical projects and hiring more people. He says the project would require, among other things, highly-specialized and skilled labor as it will include the construction of four parallel runways, a world-class terminal and a major infrastructure network.

ure, the Philippines and Japan enjoyed sustained high-level exchanges. President Duterte undertook four official visits to Japan since 2016, while former Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzo visited the Philippines twice in 2017,” the Office of the President said. Abe was the first head of state to visit the country after Duterte assumed office in 2016. Under Haneda’s stint, the OP said, Manila and Tokyo likewise enhanced their cooperation in infrastructure, education, transportation, maritime security, emergency assistance and trade and investments.
Two departments’ merger proposed RIGHTSIZING should be done to better manage extension services for farmers and fishermen, and a way to do it is to merge the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Agrarian Reform, Senator Francis Pangilinan said Wednesday. He made the proposal as the Senate began its plenary deliberations for the 2021 national budget. “The manifestation earlier of Senator [Franklin] Drilon regarding the Department of Agrarian Reform that it has been over 40 years since its mandate of distributing land is still there,” Pangilinan said. “On the other hand, the Department of Agriculture’s extension services are very weak. This is one observation as to why countries like Thailand or Malaysia are very strong on agriculture because of extension service. So a rightsizing approach would be to merge the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Agrarian Reform.” Records show that the DAR has 8,383 filled positions out of 10,209 total permanent positions in the Office of the Secretary alone. The DA, meanwhile, only has 9,093 out of 12,604 permanent positions filled. This number already includes their extension offices. “Strengthen the extension service of the Department of Agrarian Reform or the Department of Agriculture and absorb the agrarian reform agency precisely because their mandate should have been completed at this point. That would be an example of rightsizing,” Pangilinan said. He says rightsizing also involves the retraining and capacity-building of DAR personnel for delivery of extension services. Senator Sonny Angara, who as head of the Senate committee on finance is a sponsor of the budget bill, agreed with Pangilinan’s proposal. Macon Ramos-Araneta
He made the call as he pitched the idea of holding limited face-to-face classes through “purok workshops” in the areas with little or no transmission of COVID-19. “Holding these ‘purok workshops’ can help address persisting distance-learning woes,” Gatchalian said. He made the statement even as a partylist lawmaker pushed for an urgent hearing in the House of the Representatives on the bills to increasing the public school teachers’ allowance for teaching supplies. Assistant Minority Leader and ACT Teachers Rep. France Castro made the call following the Senate’s approval on final reading Monday of a bill that would institutionalize the staggered increase of theteaching supplies allowance of public school teachers to up to P10,000 in the next four years. “We urge the members of the Lower House to immediately hear in the committee of appropriations now that the Senate passed the bill for the increase in the teaching supplies’ allowance of public school teachers to P10,000 in the next five years,” Castro said. “Similar measures filed in the Lower House—including our HB 222 filed on the first day of the 18th Congress—are still pending. Adopting the Senate-approved version will speed up the process. “A higher chalk allowance will greatly unburden teachers amid too much demands and challenges in delivering education in this time of pandemic.” Deputy Speaker and 1-Pacman Rep. Michael Romero supported the Senate’s staggered approach to reaching the goal of a P10,000 teaching supplies allowance for public school teachers. Gatchalian proposed that “roving teachers”, including the learning-support aides hired by the Department of Education, could be deployed per barangay zone or purok to teach a small group of up to 10 children. Gatchalian, chairman of the Senate committee on basic education, arts and Culture, said this proposal was inspired by the learning pods that became popular in the United States. He said those learning pods were first formed by parents who were worried that children may not have the attention for online learning. Some pods hired teachers to teach children’s curriculum and some share responsibilities with parents. By mounting purok workshops in lowrisk areas, especially those with zero cases of COVID-19, Gatchalian says, the learners will not only receive proper guidance from teachers. They can also meet their need for social interaction, which they have not been able to do since the imposition of lockdown measures in March. As of Nov. 7, there were less than 500 municipalities that had zero cases of COVID-19 based on the map of the University of the Philippines’ tracker.
“Japan remains a major partner of the administration’s ‘Build, Build, Build’ program and a key supporter of the Mindanao peace process, the ongoing transition to the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao and the rehabilitation of Marawi City,” the OP said. Duterte likewise conveyed his appreciation for Japan’s generous and consistent support in the Philippines’ fight against the prevailing pandemic through aid in emergency response and economic recovery efforts and the Philippines’ inclusion in the clinical trials of Avigan as a potential treatment for COVID-19.

IN BRIEF Navotas offers RFID tagging on Nov. 24 THE City Government of Navotas, in partnership with Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), has offered a drive-thru installation of Easytrip RFID stickers on November 24, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, at the Navotas Bus Terminal. Some 500 stickers for Class 1 vehicles and 25 each for Classes 2 and 3 will be available to applicants on a first come, first serve basis. The Easytrip RFID allows cashless and contactless toll transaction for motorists passing through NLEX, SCTEX, CAVITEX, CALAX and C5 Link Expressway. The RFID system is implemented to further control the spread of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the country. “A number of our constituents are in a rush to get RFID stickers for their vehicles, especially since the full implementation of the contactless system has been set to start on December 1. We are thankful to the MPTC for bringing the Easytrip application close to Navoteños,” Mayor Toby Tiangco said. “We urge those who often use our expressways to avail of the drive-thru RFID installation. By supporting the RFID-enabled toll system, we also help keep our people safe from COVID-19,” he added. Jun David

Isko to allow Christmas bazaars By Willie Casas
M
ANILA Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso said on Tuesday he will allow bazaars to operate in the city to give businesses the opportunity to earn as the country enters the Christmas season. Domagoso assured that minimum health standards will be followed and that everything will be done smoothly. “Rest assured that what happened to MindaTienda, how it was done and hanggang natapos nakita naman na talagang naging maayos (until its last days, every-
thing went smoothly) so we will do the same thing,” Domagoso said. The Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA), in partnership with the city of Manila, held a three-day bazaar in October showcasing products and handicrafts from the Mindanao at the Kartilya ng
Katipunan. Meanwhile, Domagoso said he met with the country’s executives representing pharmaceutical company Pfizer Inc. and announced he allocated an additional P50 million for the city’s supplemental budget which will be used to buy COVID-19 vaccine. This, after Pfizer said Monday that the COVID-19 vaccine the company is currently developing was more than 90 percent effective. Domagoso said the meeting aimed to get the latest developments regarding Pfizer’s experimental COVID-19 vaccine. “We just finished meeting with Pfizer’s top executives in our country to get updates

By Rio N. Araja THE Quezon City government’s website is now accepting complaints about establishments not complying with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) protocols. Mayor Joy Belmonte on Wednesday said the city government’s official website is now ready to accept complaints regarding erring businesses that violate health protocols for appropriate action. “We have put up a link on our official website where residents can confidentially report specific violations of a particular establishment so we can act on it immediately,” she said. City residents can visit the city’s official website (quezoncity.gov.ph) and click on the People’s Corner section, where they can report details of business and infraction after a short registration process, the mayor said. As alternative, residents can also visit the city’s E-services website (https:// qceservices.quezoncity.gov.ph) where they can log-in (for existing users) or register (for new users) and report details of the business and its violation, she added. “We need the help of our citizens. They are our helping arms and our eyes to go after negligent establishments that do not abide by the protocols,” Belmonte said.
Manila Bay needs STP, says Villar SM Marilao ‘star’ By Macon Ramos-Araneta
RECOGNIZING the importance of Manila Bay to Filipinos, Senator Cynthia A. Villar underscored the need for a Sewerage Treatment Plan (STP) to help clean and save the bay. Villar issued the statement as the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) plans to build the solar-powered Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) at Baywalk area in Malate, Manila. The STP, which is capable of catching and treating 500,000 liters of wastewater per day from the drainage outfalls of Padre Faura, Remedios, and Estero de San Antonio Abad, was inaugurated last July
30 by DENR Secretary Frank Cimatu and MMDA Chair Gen. Danilo Lim. DENR plans to install additional solar-powered STPs to handle wastewater from Parañaque River, Tullahan-Tinajeros River, and Las Piñas-Zapote River Villar, chair of the Senate Committed on Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), said this is a “welcome development” to improve the waters of Manila Bay. “We should all do our part, not just whenever we can, but as much as we can. All over the world, many things are happening due to environmental destruction, degradation and neglect,” said Villar.
CIAC cleans up Clark aviation complex By Jess Malabanan
SIMS FOR MINDORO. Globe Telecom recently donated at least 10,230 SIM cards worth P6 million to Grade 12 students of Oriental Mindoro. The SIM cards, pre-loaded with free 5 Gigabytes data allocation for one month, will be distributed to public school students along with tablets procured by the provincial government. Governor Humerlito “Bonz” Dolor (left) accepts the donation from Jeanette Alquizor, Globe Head of Regional Site Acquisition Management Team, in a simple turnover ceremony at the Provincial Capitol in Calapan.
on the COVID-19 vaccine,” Domagoso said in a Facebook post. “We informed them of the readiness of the City of Manila to buy P250 million worth of vaccine from them for the city’s residents,” Domagoso said. On the bazaar, Domagoso asked the Manila Bureau of Permits to start gathering all possible businesses, whether from Manila or not. “I have already tasked Director Levi Facundo last Friday to gather all possible Manilenyos who have products to sell, those who have skills or talents for handicrafts. It doesn’t matter if they are from Manila or not, everyone is welcome,” said Domagoso.
CLARK FREEPORT—Unwanted structures, including sleeping quarters of employees of privately-owned companies, clotheslines and junkyards, and other eyesores to visitors were removed and dismantled Tuesday by Clark International Airport authorities to make the aviation complex tidy and presentable to foreign guests. Illegal structures and stockpile of junks were noticeable in some areas of the 200-hectare aviation complex, prompting CIAC President and CEO Aaron Aquino to call for the clearing of prohibited struc-
tures within the airport zone. “We made earlier appeal to the people responsible for these ‘eyesores’ to voluntarily remove these facilities because they disfigure the commercial and business landscape of the Clark Freeport Zone but to no avail (so) we have to enforce what is lawful and necessary to make things happen,” Aquino stated in his directive to all tenants in the aviation complex. Aquino also ordered the demolition of improvised facilities and crudely built shacks and cleaned the surroundings of piles of garbage and junk in open view of the public.
highlights local craftmanship
STAR has always been a symbol of achievement, talent, honor, and excellence but it takes a different meaning as the country approaches the season of hope. While the pandemic won’t stop Christmas from coming, festivities for this year will be undoubtedly different but one constant still remains and that is SM’s iconic holiday centerpiece and its symbolism. This year’s Christmas centerpiece is inspired by the Star of Bethlehem that glows brightly, leading the three Magis to the greatest story ever told. The intricately designed 30 ft. Christmas tree will not only serve as a seasonal centerpiece in the mall but also a shining beacon of inspiration, and hope for humanity. “2020 was a challenging year for all of us but it also gave us more reasons to celebrate Christmas” says SM City Marilao Mall Manager Emmanuel Gatmaitan. “SM City Marilao’s Christmas centerpiece hopes to inspire joy as we celebrate Bulakeño talent and craftmanship,” he added. Because Bulacan must be the only province that has representatives in almost every category of notable personalities in the country like National Artists, culture heroes, celebrities, and even political figures. The five-pointed stars honor the accomplishment of these personalities through the walk of fame that surrounds the Star of Hope. Jun David

CASH OUTFLOWS
THE FORCE MAJEURE EVENT (Typhoon Tisoy) On December 02, 2019, the province of Sorsogon was hit by Signal No. 3 Typhoon Tisoy. The typhoon devastated the province with a maximum sustained wind 32 MPS and gustiness reaching 170 kph.

US posts record 200k COVID-19 cases in a day
T
HE United States on Tuesday registered a record 200,000 new Covid-19 cases in one day, highlighting the desperate need for a vaccine after results from one medical trial fuelled optimism around the world. The vaccine news brought some relief from an otherwise grim picture, with tighter restrictions imposed in Europe and the Middle East, and a surge in the US claiming 1,535 lives in 24 hours. Stocks in some industries hit hardest by travel curbs, social distancing and lockdowns rebounded on hopes that the world may return to normal, after pharma giant Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech announced Monday that their vaccine candidate was 90 percent effective. A vaccine is seen as the best chance to break the cycle of deadly virus surges and severe restrictions across much of the world since Covid-19 first emerged in China late last year and ballooned into a pandemic. Pfizer and BioNTech said they could supply up to 50 million doses of the vaccine globally this year and up to 1.3 billion next year if it receives approval. The scientific community reacted positively overall -- although the trial is still ongoing and the vaccine candidate would need to be stored in specialist deep freezers, creating huge supply chain complications.

4 HK pro-democracy lawmakers ousted HONG KONG stripped four pro-democracy lawmakers of their seats Wednesday, immediately after China gave the city the power to disqualify politicians deemed a threat to national security. The ousting comes after 19 pro-democracy lawmakers in the semi-autonomous city’s legislature threatened Monday to resign “en masse” if their colleagues were disqualified. Hong Kong’s government said the four would “lose their qualification as legislators immediately”. The statement came after The National People’s Congress Standing Committee -one of China’s top lawmaking committees -- ruled that Hong Kong could remove any legislator deemed a threat to national security without going through the courts. The disqualifications are the latest blow to the city’s beleaguered democracy movement, which has been under sustained attack since China imposed a sweeping national security law, including arrests for social media posts and activists fleeing overseas. It was imposed in June to quell months of huge and often violent protests in the finance hub. China’s leaders have described it as a “sword” hanging over the head of their critics. “If observing due process, protecting systems and functions and fighting for democracy and human rights would lead to the consequences of being disqualified, it would be my honour,” Dennis Kwok, one of the disqualified lawmakers, told reporters Wednesday.

Australia probes Murdoch’s dailies AUSTRALIA’S parliament will launch an inquiry into media ownership, a prominent senator said Wednesday, after more than half a million people signed a petition demanding a probe into Rupert Murdoch’s news dominance. The online petition attracted a record number of signatories after being launched on October 12 by former Labor prime minister Kevin Rudd, a frequent target of newspapers controlled by Murdoch’s News Corp. The Australian arm of the New Yorkheadquartered company is the country’s largest media organization, owning papers in nearly every major city as well as cable television networks and magazines. Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, a prominent politician from the minor Greens party, said the Senate had backed her push to probe the lack of news media diversity in Australia. “Very glad to see the Senate support this and establish an inquiry immediately,” she tweeted. “Australians have become increasingly concerned about the concentration of media ownership and the power and political influence of Murdoch.” The country’s opposition parties united behind the move in the Senate to effectively sidestep the conservative government, which enjoys strong support from the Murdoch press and had not acted on the petition’s demand for a royal commission.

Market slips; GT Capital, Megaworld advance tocks fell slightly Wednesday on profit taking after the benchmark index jumped to an eight-and-a-half-month high in the previous day.
S
The Philippine Stock Exchange Index slipped 11.22 points, or 0.2 percent, to 7,024.26 on a value turnover of P27.8 billion. Gainers, however, beat losers, 139 to 70, with 49 issues unchanged. SM Investments Corp. of the Sy Group dropped 4.6 percent to P1,049, while Robinsons Land Corp. of the Gokongwei Group declined 4.8 percent to P16.
GT Capital Holdings Inc. of the Ty Group, however, rose 5.8 percent to P560, while Megaworld Corp., the biggest lessor of office spaces, climbed 5.2 percent to P3.63. The rest Asian markets were mixed Wednesday as investors struggled to maintain momentum in a rally that had been fueled by news of a highly successful vaccine trial and Joe Biden’s US election victory. Equities were already in the ascendant at the end of last week as it appeared the former vice president was on course to wrest control of the White House from Donald Trump and provide more certainty to world affairs. But US pharma giant Pfizer and Germany’s BioNTech provided rocket
fuel Monday when they said their candidate for a Covid-19 vaccine had been 90 percent effective, lifting hope for a move towards normality for the planet. Stocks that had been beaten down for months owing to lockdowns around the world rallied, while those that had benefited—such as tech titans and makers of medical equipment—took a hit. And while the surge appeared to stutter in New York on Tuesday—the Dow jumped but the S&P 500 slipped— Asia started on another positive note but the advances petered out in some markets as profit-takers moved in. Tokyo, Sydney, Seoul and Taipei all rose more than one percent, while Wellington and Jakarta also enjoyed
fresh gains. But Hong Kong, Singapore, Mumbai and Bangkok all fell into the red as traders cashed out. Shanghai was also down, while investors there were also keeping tabs on China’s massive Singles’ Day shopping sale, which will be used as a gauge of consumer sentiment as the country emerges from the virus. Safe havens that are usually the go-to in times of crisis, such as the yen and gold, remained down from their levels of a week ago, while higher-yielding currencies built on gains against the dollar. Hopes for a lift in demand provided fresh upside for oil prices, which climbed more than two percent a day
after jumping more than three percent. However, observers warned that any vaccination would likely take some time—with billions around the world needing the drug—while the economy remains in trouble and the disease continues its rampage. “You still have a tremendous amount of uncertainty out there, and while equities may continue to climb a wall of worry, the stock market is still subject to the rules of gravity,” said Jonathan Boyar, of Boyar Value Group. And while US expert Anthony Fauci called the results “extraordinary” and World Health Organization boss Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the news was “encouraging,” experts warned the data still needed reviewing.

Chinese indulge in shopping bonanza
SHANGHAI, China—Chinese consumers snapped up everything from food to electronics and beauty products Wednesday as retailers slashed prices for the world’s largest online shopping bonanza, closely watched this year for clues on post-pandemic consumer sentiment. The marathon spending spree has for more than a decade seen China’s army of shoppers shell out colossal amounts of cash that has dwarfed the incomes of many small nations. And this year will be no exception. While “Single’s Day”—so-called for its annual 11.11 date—has long-been a 24hour event, e-commerce giant Alibaba has expanded it to an 11-day promotion beginning November 1. As of Tuesday night, Alibaba platforms had already processed 372.3 billion yuan ($56.5 billion) in sales over that period, more than the GDP of Iceland, Lebanon and Georgia combined. Leading China retailers such as Alibaba, JD.com and Pinduoduo compete aggressively for Single’s Day, which far outstrips the preChristmas “Black Friday” promotion in the United States. But Chinese regulators cast a gloom over the biggest e-commerce stretch of the year by announcing draft antitrust rules that signal a looming crackdown on high-flying internet giants. The rules published on Tuesday outlined plans to prevent “monopolistic behavior” among internet companies, which tend to
develop captive ecosystems. Alibaba’s Taobao platform, for example, supports payments via its own Alipay rather, but not the WeChat Pay technology of rival Tencent. Chinese tech shares tumbled for a second day Wednesday. Alibaba shed more than eight percent in Hong Kong—just a week after regulators halted an enormous IPO by its Ant Group financial arm -- and rival JD.com fell a similar amount. This year’s shopping is being closely followed around the world as a guide to the state of China’s crucial consumer sector, which is increasingly more important to the future of the world’s biggest economy. As the country emerges from the effects of the virus and tight lockdowns, the recovery in retail sales has lagged that seen in industrial sectors, but is gaining pace, analysts said. “Single’s Day” originally focused on sales of certain items like beauty products and electronics, said Melanie Sanders, Asia-Pacific head of retail for consultancy Bain & Company. But e-commerce in China has expanded to include just about anything a consumer might purchase, including groceries, as digitally savvy Chinese opt for the convenience of online shopping. The pandemic, which has made many Chinese wary of crowds, is furthering this trend, she said. “We’re expecting it to be another very, very strong year, another record,” Sanders said. “Retail in China is largely getting back now to last year’s levels.” AFP
Qatar wooing foreigners, offers residency to property buyers By Anne Levasseur and Gregory Walton DOHA, Qatar—Gas-rich Qatar has flung open its property market to foreigners, with a scheme giving those purchasing homes or stores the right to call the Gulf nation home. The scheme, announced in September, is the latest in a series of measures designed to diversify Qatar’s economy away from fossil fuel dependency and attract foreign capital ahead of the 2022 World Cup. Well-heeled individuals are being invited to consider the glistening seaside tower blocks of Doha’s man-made Pearl island or the brand new Lusail city project that flanks a World Cup stadium. Retail units in malls also qualify buyers for residency. The reforms could also help soak up an oversupply of units, which has left gleaming towers half-empty and seen prices drop by almost a third since 2016, according to consultancy ValuStrat’s Price Index for residential property. Previously, investors needed sponsorship from a Qatari business or individual for residency, but now a $200,000 property purchase secures temporary residency for the term of ownership. A $1-million purchase buys the benefits of permanent residency, including free schools and healthcare.

“The reason I didn’t buy earlier was that there was so much grey area,” said marketing director Tina Chadda, a Kenyan who has lived in Qatar for 15 years. Now she is looking for “a property to live in which I can use to get permanent residency.” “I think this will allow me to call Qatar home. I feel more comfortable now,” she told AFP. Chadda said the visa would also allow her to bring her family, including elderly parents, to Qatar from Nairobi. “It’s a safe country, compared to Kenya.”
Foreigners can now house hunt in 25 areas of Qatar—mostly in and around the capital Doha— nine on a freehold basis and the rest with 99-year leaseholds. Seaviews for most Gulf nations have long depended on foreign skills and expertise to convert their petrodollars into the region’s towering cities, but have seldom made it easy, or cheap, for expats to make their moves permanent. Similar schemes exist elsewhere in the Gulf, but for a significantly greater outlay. Dubai offers a 10-year residency visa
for an investment of $2.7 million, 40 percent of which must be in property. So-called “golden visas” and investment passport schemes in several countries have also faced scrutiny over allegations they have attracted corrupt individuals and money laundering. In Qatar’s case, it remains unclear how attractive the tiny, ultra-conservative nation—where strict curbs apply to free speech and alcohol sales—will be to wealthy global buyers. Investment of $200,000 buys a 50-square-meter (540 square foot) studio in Lusail’s new Fox Hills development north of Doha, while $1 million would cover a 330-square-meter, three-bed seaview apartment in the Pearl. “These areas have been designated because they have new and developed infrastructure... as well as a distinctive view of the sea for most,” said justice ministry official Saeed Abdullah al-Suwaidi. “There is no big demand, but we are trying to encourage real estate investment,” he added. “(We) aim to diversify the economy and not depend on oil and gas.” This marks a step change in the Gulf emirate, where 90 percent of the 2.75 million people are temporary guest workers, mostly employed on projects linked to the 2022 tournament.

SM Prime set to open 75th mall in Butuan City to support CARAGA
Business Taiheiyo Cement investing P15b in new Cebu factory T By Othel V. Campos
AIHEIYO Cement Group of Japan is investing P15 billion in a new production line in Cebu to support the growing demand for cement in local housing, commercial and infrastructure development sectors, the Trade Department said Wednesday.
The department said the project would involve a state-ofthe-art facility fitted with new and advanced technologies from developers in Europe and other leading global technology providers. The new production line will increase the Taiheiyo’s production capacity by 50 percent in the immediate term and 150 percent in the medium term. The bigger capacity is projected to increase Taiheiyo’s Philippine market share from 7 percent to 10 percent. Shuji Fukuda, president and representative director of Taiheiyo, said the company adheres to green economy requirements via the introduction of energy-efficient operations which will bring about a reduction by 10 percent of carbon dioxide emissions from energy use in clinker production from the old line’s energy efficiency rates.
Trade Secretary Ramon Lopez said Taiheiyo’s expansion plan would support the department’s cornerstone strategy, REBUILD PH or “Revitalizing Businesses, Investments, Livelihoods and Domestic Demand.” The strategy is designed to jumpstart and reinvigorate the economy by enhancing both production capacity and revitalizing consumption, Lopez said. “The new Taiheiyo Cement expansion project is a strategic investment not only in the context of the President’s ‘Build, Build, Build’ program, but also from the perspective of meeting the demand of our country’s economic recovery. This is estimated by both the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund to reach 6.2 percent to 6.8 percent in 2021,” Lopez said. “This partnership offers numerous opportunities that will complement economic growth opportunities in the Philippines as we aim to build back better,” he said. The company also committed to enhance logistics and meet environmental protection programs through the installation of a 2-kilometer marine belt conveyor, expansion of the berth and jetty in San Fernando, Cebu and the adoption of energyefficient production processes. Trade Undersecretary Ceferino Rodolfo said Board of Investments would review the project’s new technologies for incentive eligibility and provide investment facilitation services through its standing cooperation with related agencies responsible for the issuance of relevant permits and licenses.
By Jenniffer B. Austria PROPERTY developer SM Prime Holdings Inc. said Wednesday it will open on Friday its 75th shopping mall in Butuan City, Agusan del Norte. SM Prime said the opening of SM City Butuan would proceed even as shopping malls across the country continued to experience reduced foot traffic and lower revenues because of the pandemic. SM Prime said in a disclosure to the stock exchange SM Butuan has 48,000 square meters of gross leasable area. It will open with more than 80 percent of leased area awarded to retailers. “The steady economic growth demonstrated by Mindanao over the past years has driven SM Prime to pursue its expansion in the region delivering integrated property developments in various key areas in Mindanao. We hope that the opening of SM City Butuan will further contribute to this advancement while providing essential needs and services, as well as entertainment in the region,” SM Prime president Jeffrey Lim said. SM City Butuan will be the first mall to be opened by SM Prime since the start of the year. It will also be the sixth SM mall in Mindanao and the first in the CARAGA Region. Prior to the pandemic, SM Prime planned to open five new malls this year with total GLA of 257,000 sq. m. It was also slated to complete expansion of six new malls. The company’s newest mall along JC Aquino Ave. in Butuan is expected to attract shoppers from the provinces of Agusan del Sur, Dinagat Islands, Surigao del Norte and Surigao del Sur. The mall offers three levels of mixed local and international stores and dining destinations, including SM brands such as The SM Store, SM Supermarket, SM Appliance Center, Our Home, ACE Hardware, Uniqlo, Sports Central, Surplus Shop, Miniso, Goldilocks, Watsons and BDO. SM City Butuan will also house four SM Cinema facilities, SM Cyberzone, an open parking and a helipad.
METROBANK DONATION.
GMR of India agrees to infuse 40% equity in NAIA project By Darwin G. Amojelar MEGAWIDE Construction Corp. said Wednesday Indian infrastructure partner GMR Infrastructure Ltd. of India agreed to infuse a 40-percent equity in the rehabilitation and development of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport after the National Economic and Development Authority raised concerns over the consortium’s capability to finance the project. Megawide said in a disclosure to the stock exchange that GMR, its equity partner in Mactan-Cebu International Airport, was one of the leading and largest airport operators in the world. “They are currently operating and/ or developing key international gateways such as the Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport, GMR Goa International Airport and the Crete International Airport in Greece. GMR’s airport assets serve more than 100 million passengers per year,” Megawide said. It said its financial fundamentals were “strong and it possesses the capability to fully finance” all proposed phases of the NAIA rehabilitation project. “Megawide’s prudent financial management plan ensures all phases of a complex infrastructure build are fully financed under a project financing program,” it said. Megawide said it planned to deliver a world-class transformation of the NAIA complex in a transparent manner with the highest degree of excellence and government procurement compliance The government has yet to award the contract to operate and rehabilitate NAIA to Megawide and GMR, which secured the original proponent status on July 15. Megawide earlier offered to develop NAIA for $3 billion with a contract period of 18 years on March 1, 2018. Its proposal was two weeks behind the proposal of NAIA Consortium which eventually backed out.
IN BRIEF Pilipinas Shell booked 9-month loss of P13.9b
BULACAN AIRPORT TRAINEES. San Miguel Corp. starts to build up manpower for its massive, P740-billion ‘gamechanger’ Manila International Airport project in Bulacan province, with the first batch of trainees under its specialized job training program completing their courses under the Technical Education Skills and Development Authority. The TESDA program, funded by San Miguel, was initially opened to former residents of Barangay Taliptip, the future site of the airport. It will be offered to more Bulacan residents and nearly provinces in the coming months to help displaced job-seekers.
Cebu Pacific incurred P14.68-b net loss Megaworld’s profit in nine months over flight cancellations up by 7% to P2.2b in the third quarter
CEBU Air Inc., the operator of Cebu Pacific and Cebgo, said Wednesday net loss widened to P14.68 billion in the first nine months mostly because of flight cancellations brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. The budget airline said the nine-month net loss was a reversal of the P6.76-billion profit it booked in the same period last year. Revenues in the nine-month period dropped 69.6 percent to P19.34 billion from P63.62 billion a year ago. “The overall decline in revenues was brought about by the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak which started with cancellation of flights to China, Hong Kong, Macau and South Korea in varying periods due to the imposition of travel restrictions,” the company said. Passenger revenues fell 74.5 percent to P11.88 billion as of end-September from P46.59 billion a year earlier. The group saw a 71.9-percent decline
in passenger traffic from 16.7 million to 4.7 million as flights decreased by 66.3 percent while seat load factor declined 8.7 percentage points from 87 percent to 79 percent. Average fares went down by 9.2 percent to P2,537 in the first nine months from P2,794 in the same period last year. Cargo revenues were down by 17.7 percent to P3.553 billion from P4.31 billion as the volume transported decreased by 55.8 percent. This was partially offset by higher yield primarily from chartered cargo services. Operating expenses amounted to P33.064 billion in the first nine months, down by 38.7 percent from P53.939 billion last year. “This was mostly driven by the suspension of the group’s operations due to the COVID-19 global pandemic since a material portion of its expenses are based on flights and flight hours,” CEB said.

In celebration of Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co.’s 58th anniversary, Metrobankers nationwide skip their traditional anniversary meal allowance and instead donate it for a greater cause. More than 14,000 Metrobankers gather as one community to raise P2,358,158.58 for the benefit of communities identified to have been hardest hit by the pandemic. Metrobank and the Metrobank Foundation boosted the employee initiated donation with an additional P1 million, which form part of the P2 million that the Metrobank Foundation pledged in the anniversary grants turnover ceremony. The employee donation drive will be able to feed more than 67,000 individuals through the Kindness Kitchens of the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
CONDOMINIUM and office builder Megaworld Corp. said Wednesday net income bounced back in the third quarter after two consecutive quarters of decline as rental business gradually recovered from the impact of the pandemic. Megaworld said in a disclosure to the stock exchange third-quarter net income improved 7 percent to P2.2 billion compared to the second quarter of the year while revenues rose 9 percent to P9.5 billion from P8.7 billion in the second quarter. Megaworld said the recovery in the third quarter was boosted by the positive performance of office and shopping mall businesses. Office rental business posted revenues of P6 billion in the third quarter, up 6 percent from P2.8 billion in the previous quarter. Mall business more than doubled its revenues in the third quarter from to the previous quarter as the relaxed lockdown protocols allowed people to start shopping and dining in malls. Mall revenues surged 117 percent to P400 million in the third quarter from the second quarter even as the company continued to offer rental discounts to retail and merchant partners. “We are seeing a lot of optimism now as we have begun the recovery of our mall business, and our office leasing business continues its growth,” Megaworld chief strategy officer Kevin Tan said. “The government’s recovery efforts especially in reopening the economy coupled with our recovery strategies have greatly helped our core businesses bounce back, and we continue to be optimistic of this uptrend as we strive to provide the right balance between safety, convenience, and an enjoyable experience in our townships all over the country,” said Tan.

PILIPINAS Shell Petroleum Corp. said Wednesday it booked a net loss of P13.9 billion in the first nine months, including P7.5 billion in one-off charges in the third quarter following the cessation of its manufacturing operations and conversion of Tabangao refinery into a world-class import facility in Batangas in August. Pilipinas Shell said in a statement excluding one-off charges, the net loss amounted to P6.4 billion in the nine-month period, compared to the P4.4-billion net income in the same period last year. The company’s net loss reached P700 million in the third quarter, a reversal of the P640.68-million net income a year ago. Pilipinas Shell said it boosted efforts to maintain financial resilience amid the COVID-19 pandemic by posting savings of P2.5 billion by the end of the third quarter, exceeding its cash conservation target of P2 billion by yearend.

FDI inflows surged to $637m in August
NET inflow of foreign direct investments rose for the fourth consecutive month as investors reacted positively to the government’s fiscal stimulus and monetary authorities’ stance to lessen the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the economy, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas said Wednesday. Latest data showed net FDI inflows increased 46.9 percent in August to $637 million from $434 million a year ago. “The FDI net inflows increased for the fourth consecutive month, owing to investors’ renewed confidence as the government’s fiscal stimulus and BSP’s accommodative monetary policy stance to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic gained traction along with the easing of quarantine measures in the country,” the BSP said in a statement. The BSP said that in the first eight months, FDI net inflows amounted to $4.4 billion, down by 5.6 percent from $4.7-billion net inflows in the same period last year. Julito G. Rada
Meralco wants review of Malampaya pricing
POWER retailer Manila Electric Co. called for a review of the pricing mechanism of the Malampaya gas-to-power project in northwest Palawan to reduce foreign exchange exposure and oil price volatilities. “In the ongoing discussions regarding Malampaya supply, we respectfully recommend that pricing be reviewed to reduce exposure to foreign exchange and world oil prices, so that the country may more fully benefit from the indigenous nature of the fuel,” Meralco head of utility economics Lawrence Fernandez said a Senate hearing on the Malampaya gas project Tuesday. Fernandez said Meralco recognizes the strategic value of an indigenous source of energy like the Malampaya natural gas. “Meralco, along with NPC [National Power Corp.] in the 1990s provided the guaranteed or take-or-pay market for the gas-to-power projects that underpinned the Malampaya project,” he said. Fernandez said while natural gas from Malampaya accounted for around 29 percent of power generation in Luzon, it represented about 50 percent of Meralco’s supply to its captive market. Alena Mae S.

H
OPE springs eternal. The Meralco Bolts kept alive their hope for a twice-tobeat advantage in the Quarterfinals when they survived the ferocious comeback of the NorthPort Batang Pier to post a scrambling, 80-73, victory yesterday, November 11, 2020 at the Angeles University Foundation Sports Arena & Cultural Center Powered by Smart 5G. NorthPort’s Renz Subido and Kevin Ferrer each drilled a three-pointer to fuel a 16-2 run which cut the Meralco lead to just 5 points, 76-71, with 2:36 to go in the game. Paolo Taha then received an alley-oop pass from Ferrer to convert a layup and cut the Meralco lead to 3 points, 76-73, with 1:57 left to play. That was the closest the Batang Pier would come. Raymond Almazan converted a fastbreak layup to extend the Meralco lead to 5 points, 78-73. Subido and Ferrer made repeated tries for three-pointers which they
repeatedly missed allowing Meralco to escape with the victory. Meralco’s Chris Newsome made two free throws to finalize the count, 80-73. Meanwhile, the NLEX Road Warriors, shut out of the playoffs, vented their ire on the hapless Terrafirma Dyip posting a 127-101 demolition. Kiefer Ravena, as usual, led the NLEX production with 23 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds. Asi Taulava, playing his last game in the PBA, scored 11 points, grabbed 4 rebounds,
posted 3 blocks and issued 2 assists. With the victory the Bolts (7 wins, 4 losses) earned at least tie for a twice-tobeat advantage in the Quarterfinals of the 2020 PBA Philippine Cup. A tiebreak to determine the final standings will be computed after the final two games of the conference are played. The Dyip (1-10) ended the season with its usual place at the bottom of the standings and will be rewarded with a fourth consecutive top overall pick in the next PBA Draft. Leading the standings and with a twiceto-beat advantage are the Ginebra Gin Kings (8-3). The other teams already qualified to the Quarterfinals are Phoenix Super LPG (73), TNT Tropang Giga (7-4), Alaska Aces (7-4), San Miguel Beermen (7-4), Magnolia Hotshots Pambansang Manok (6-4) and Rain or Shine Elasto Painters (6-4). Left outside and looking in are NLEX (5-6), Blackwater Elite (2-8) and NorthPort (1-10). Bong Quinto finished with 14 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists to win Player of the
SMBeermen ready for playoffs By Peter Atencio WITH a two-game winning streak behind them, the San Miguel Beermen have finally entered the the Philippine Basketball Association Philippine Cup quarterfinals. Having recovered from two straight losses in the middle of the eliminations carries a lot of weight to the team. “What is important for us is recovery. This team, when it comes to the playoffs, they play differently unless they feel something,” said Beermen coach Leo Austria on Zoom after their game on Tuesday evening. The Beermen gained confidence and the needed momentum after a 120-99 beating of NorthPort Tuesday
at the Angeles University Foundation Sports Arena and Cultural Center. Arwind Santos led six players who knocked in double-digit scores for the Beermen. Santos checked in with a double-double of 23 points and on 4-for-7 shooting from the three-point range, aside from hauling 11 rebounds, while Marcio Lassiter put in 21 points off his four triples and seven assists. “We’re so happy to get into the playoffs after a week of really thinking about what will happen to us because we felt that our team was really struggling because of a lot of injuries,” said Austria. The Beermen have now hiked their chances of taking one of three remaining twice-to-beat berths with their 7-4 win-loss card.
Adiwang dedicates fight against Minowa to ailing mother IN AN emotional video montage released by ONE Championship yesterday, it was revealed that Team Lakay strawweight and rising star Lito Adiwang’s mother Leticia was terminally ill, having survived multiple strokes over the past few years. A distraught Adiwang shared his family’s struggles in caring for his mother just ahead of one of the biggest bouts of his career. The 27-year-old from Benguet, Philippines has dedicated his next fight to her honor and hopes he can make her proud once again this Friday night. Fans can view the video at these links: https://www.facebook.com/ONEChampionship/ posts/3804582476231646 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOrMo_Xqo7c The Filipino “Thunder Kid” is set to face former Shooto Champion Hiroba Minowa of Japan in a threeround mixed martial arts contest at ONE: INSIDE THE MATRIX III, a previously-recorded event from Singapore scheduled for Friday, November 13. Adiwang is happy to make his return to the ONE Circle, and perhaps put together an inspired performance. “I am very excited and happy to be back in action, and continue to do what I love to do. This fight is very
special for me. I want to win for my family, especially my mom,” said Adiwang. “My mother has had a big impact on my life. She is the reason I am who I am today. I thank her for everything in my life, and I am proud and happy to be her son.” Because of the lockdowns imposed by Covid-19 restrictions in the Philippines, particularly in Baguio City where he resides, Adiwang has taken the extra free time as a blessing, being able to spend more time at home with family while still trying to stay in shape and ready for his next appearance in the Circle. Since joining ONE Championship by way of Rich Franklin’s ONE Warrior Series, Adiwang has strung together a series of impressive performances. He’s currently riding a seven-bout win streak and is one of the most explosive young stars in the world. A victory over Minowa this Friday night will certainly continue pushing him in the right direction. “It’s very important for me to keep my momentum in ONE Championship, because it’s one way for me to be recognized as a top talent in ONE. My goal is to one day become a world champion. Nothing has changed since you last saw me. I’ve only gotten better,” said Adiwang. “I’ve really done my best in training and to improve
Lito Adiwang
myself. That’s the only way I can keep this up. Everytime I step into the Circle, I want to give fans a show they want to watch. Each victory will keep moving me up the ladder until I’ve reached the top.”
Game honors for the Bolts. He credited the close proximity in the “PBA bubble” for better familiarity among Meralco players. “Siguro yung samahan ng team namin ang dahilan sa better play. Habang tumatagal kami sa bubble mas nakikilala namin ang isat isa. Nata translate namin ito sa laro. Sabi ni coach Norman (Black), ito na ang panahon namin. Kumpleto kami. Injury free si Raymond (Almazan). Sabi ni coach Magtiwala lang kami sa isat isa,” said Quinto during the post-game interview. The scores: Meralco Bolts 80 – Bong Quinto 14, Chris Newsome 11, Raymond Almazan 11, Baser Amer 10, Trevis Jackson 10, Jammer Jamito 6, Aaron Black 5, Bryan Faundo 4, Cliff Hodge 2, Nico Salva 2, Anjo Caram 2, Nard Pinto 0, Raymar Jose 0. NorthPort Batang Pier 73 – Jervy Cruz 15, Paolo Taha 14, Kelly Nabong 14, Kevin Ferrer 9, Renz Subido 9, Bradwyn Guinto 7, Sean Manganti 2, LA Revilla 2, Nico Elorde 1. Quarter scores: 23-14, 39-30, 67-50, 80-73.
Bayanihan 2 also benefits team sports NATIONAL athletes in team sports are set to receive the remaining 50% of their June and July allowances and shall continue to receive their full allowance up to December. Along with the rest of Team Philippines, they shall also receive the “special amelioration package” given by the government. Benefitting from these are 199 athletes and 39 coaches belonging to teams of eight sports, namely; aquatics-water polo, baseball, dragonboat, handball, ice hockey, softball, underwater hockey, and volleyball. Philippine Sports Commission chairman Butch Ramirez thanked congress, senate and President Rodrigo Duterte for including the national team in the coverage of Republic Act No. 11494. “A community coming together really makes a whole lot of difference,” remarked Ramirez, citing the instrumental help of Philippine Olympic Committee President, Rep. Abraham Tolentino in getting the funds to give back the 50% cut on the national team’s allowances. Allowances of team sports are limited to a few months before and after a major international competition such as the Asian Games or the Southeast Asian Games, because of the considerable budget it entails. However, fresh from the rousing success of Team Philippines’ overall championship finish in the 30th SEA Games, the PSC Board approved the extension of allowances until July of this year. And now, with the crisis that has hit everyone hard on all fronts, the sports agency approved to continue this until the end of the year and included team sports in the budget from Bayanihan Act 2. The PSC has confirmed receipt of the 180 Million funding under the Bayanihan Act 2. The necessary administration to effect the remittance are now being done and are expected to be released by the first week of December.

Best home self-care regimen for athletes BEING an athlete goes beyond the parameters of the court, or beyond the excitement of the game. To win, it takes sweat, blood and tears--this is what makes an athlete fearless. Plus, the intense passion from the heart! But during this challenging time, when the games are temporarily halted, self-care comes into clarity. To sustain a clear mental soundness during a championship, a holistically structured self-care regimen can be a gamechanger! Follow these tips and find out what it takes become a fearless athlete: 1. Turn to healthier choices As they say, “You are what you eat!” Well-balanced meals can provide essential nutrients your body requires. A plateful of natural vegetables, fruits, lean meat and eggs can be a powerup, providing the much needed energy! Craving for chips or hotdogs? Avoid junk foods! Aside from being nutrientdeficient, excessive consumption of such may lead to major health issues. As athletes, our body needs to operate effectively and do physically strenuous activities. 2. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Sweat it out! Training, in-game playoffs, or even as simple as your daily exercise may bring about excessive sweating. Research suggests that physical performance weakens when dehydrated. At most, the performance capacity of the athlete drops by about 30%. So better keep those hydro flasks close to drink and hydrate! 3. Resting for the champs! According to research, extended sleeping time can be linked to the vast improvement of athletic performance. This gives the body an ample amount of time to rest and recover. As athletes are constantly pushed to their limits-physically, mentally, and emotionally--their bodies require extra hours of sleep to process and rest, preventing burnout. 4. Missed a training? Don’t be upset! Your passion can take you to places! But if not monitored, too much passion can also be damaging! Overtraining, like any excessive activity, increases your risk to chronic stress. Thus, you become more prone to health issues. Do exercises in limited, but regular time throughout the week. As told before, the body requires time to regain lost nutrients and energy postworkout. So drop those dumbbells and maintain a schedule! 5. Never SKIP the shower! To be in shape means to sweat! After you accomplish your workout, make sure to shower and cleanse. As soon as you do so, you avoid the unwanted buildup of sweat and bacteria, especially on your scalp. Bathing with cold water helps open up the scalp’s pores, and improves its blood circulation. For instance, sweat can actually plug up the hair follicles, inciting an inflammatory response that may lead to the dreadful hair loss. To elevate your self-care regimen at home, use a natural scalp solution like Medic Hair to prevent hair loss! Specifically formulated for men, Medic Hair utilizes the powerful combination of Saw Palmetto Extract and Ginseng Extract, giving nourishment for hair regrowth. In every game, free yourself from worries! With Medic Hair, be fearless against hair loss! Medic Hair is available at Shopee and Lazada.

PHISGOC’s games report completed by month’s end By Peter Atencio
T
HE submission of all reports on the status of the 30th Southeast Asian Games is expected to be done by the end of November.
Philippine Southeast Asian Games Organizing Committee Chief Operating Officer Ramon “Tats” Suzara said the report would have been available sooner, but the lockdowns imposed by the government to control the spread of the coronavirus pandemic slowed down the progress of this over the last 11 months. “This pandemic has kept us from submitting this early. It’s now with the auditing firm. We can’t rush this. They need time,” said Suzara, who also revealed that there was also a delay in turning over some of the P1.461 billion fund that the PHISGOC needed to run the Games. The last tranche of the money for the Games, which came from the Philippine Sports Commission, was turned over to the PHISGOC only last September 4. On Wednesday, the PHISGOC turned over to the POC the 30th 2019 SEA
Games Final Report Book, a 190-page hardbound book that chronicled in detail on how the Philippines regained the games’ overall championship, with 149 golds, 117 silvers and 121 bronzes, for a total of 387 medals. “This is part of the closure of the 30th SEA Games. This is the first part. The second part is the financials. This is the evidence, this is the truth. Nandito lahat ang sacrifices ng mga athletes, coaches, technical official at iba pa,” said POC president Abraham “Bambol” Tolentino. The turnover ceremonies, also graced by commissioner Arnold Agustin of the Philippine Sports Commission and PHISGOC Chairperson Allan Peter Cayetano, took place at the Kalayaan Hall of the SM Aura Office Towers in Taguig City. The second group of documents with an audited financial report on the opera-
tions of the Games will be available at the end of the month. PHISGOC’s second report will be in the hands of the POC once a prestigious international auditing firm, Price Waterhouse Coopers, is done working on the accounting of the biennial meet. Since October, some members of the executive committee of the POC have been asking the PHISGOC to submit its report, in compliance with a tripartite agreement that the PHISGOC made with the PSC andand the POC last year. “Tama ‘yung (PHISGOC) explanation. How can you finalize the audit report kung hindi pa tapos ‘yung last transaction—the last transaction was September 4. Hindi pa nga September 4, kasi mayroong two suppliers pa na binayaran, so siguro mga third week pa nga ng September (last transaction). So how can you finalize it na 60 days after or a year or whatever date, kung hindi pa tapos? Kahit kayo sa bahay niyo, paano makapagsara ng libro kung may babayaran pa? So, with that, hopefully one week or two weeks from now matapos na. I am not defending the PHISGOC, kasi alam ko, I know the procedures and this is one of the procedures,” said Tolentino.
Visayan skater wins DIY Solo Competition TEN skateboarders from all around the country duelled in October’s Red Bull DIY Solo Competition, with Johnpaul Horteza of Lapu Lapu City emerging champion. The 18-year-old Horteza, the very first winner of the competition, is an avid skater with seven years of amateur experience. “Sa una pa lang, mahilig na ako sa skateboarding. Mahirap pero sulit din kasi natuto ako. Umulan o bumagyo skate parin. Sa lahat ng sport, ito ang aking nagustuhan,” said Horteza. “Hindi ko naasahan magpa-event ang Red Bull, so na-excite ako. Nag pa-video ako kaagad at solid din kasi nanalo po ako!” The Top 5 participants, namely Horteza, runner-up Trunks Manalo of Lapu Lapu City, third-placer Marvin Pescador of Cebu City, Visayas and (4th) Cesar Mancera and (5th) Kim Bonifacio, both of Kidapawan, Mindanao, were selected by professional local skateboarders, Jeff Gonzales and Demit Cuevas, with final placements determined by Asia and 2X SEA Gold Medalist
THE BOTTOM LINE LITO CINCO MATTHEW “Fritz” Gaston wanted to be a lawyer, but found out Ateneo de Manila could not include him on the varsity team if he pursued it. And since he loved basketball more than law, he shifted to be able to play with the Blue Eagles in the mid 1970s and was part of the back-toback champion team in 1975 and 1976. After serving the national team, he then went on to the professional league and became one of the best defensive guards that the PBA has seen in its early years. In fact, when the U/Tex Wranglers, coached by Tommy Manotoc and backstopped by imports Aaron James and Glenn McDonald, plus Lim Eng Beng and Bogs Adornado, played against Toyota in the 1980
Champion Johnpaul Horteza does his thing.
AUGUSTA—Tiger Woods, still feeling the thrill of last year’s Masters victory to complete an epic comeback, says he can contend again this week thanks to his knowledge of Augusta National. Former world number one Woods, a 15-time major champion who turns 45 next month, seeks a sixth green jacket to match the all-time record of Jack Nicklaus and a record 83rd US PGA victory to break the mark he shares with Sam Snead. “Do I expect to contend? Yes I do,” Woods said. “It can be done. Having an understanding where to miss it and how to hit the shots around here, it helps. “It gets a little more difficult as I’ve gotten older and I don’t quite hit it as far. “You see past champions... able to contend so late in their careers and hopefully I’ll be able to be one of those guys.” Woods’ vivid memories of Augusta include his victory last year, feeling the electric atmosphere of the crowd and hugging his children the way he embraced his dad after his first Masters win in 1997. “The same embrace, 22 years apart, pretty good bookends,” Woods said Tuesday. “I still get chills just thinking about that. “It meant a lot to me and still does. It just reminded me so much of my dad and to come full circle like that, it still gets me a little teary.” Woods has been able to keep his jacket away from Augusta longer than usual because Covid-19 postponed the Masters from April to November that also means no spectators attending. “It has been incredible to have the jacket around the house,” Woods said. “But this is not the way I want to have it.” Woods fed off the emotions of the crowd last year to rally for the victory, his first major title won after trailing before the last round. “They helped me win, the support that I had,” Woods said. “The energy that was around the property was electric that day. We’ll miss the crowds. This year is going to be very different. “Hopefully I can figure it out and duplicate last year.” Since then, Woods has struggled with his surgically repaired back and consistency, unable to assemble four competitive rounds since winning the 2019 Zozo Championship in Japan some 13 months ago. “Last year, I was able to hit a lot of iron shots and putted well,” Woods said. “I hope I get the same feel as I had last year and put it all together.” AFP and Olympic hopeful, Margielyn Didal. Last September, 17 skate crews across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao were given the budget and resources to further enhance their dream DIY skate spots. These skate spots were then used again for the Solo Competition that enabled skaters to showcase their skill and creativity. “Red Bull DIY goes hand-in-hand with skating,” said Cuevas. “From building something to skate on to doing tricks. For Red Bull DIY to shell out support not just to build one spot, but to spread the love for skateboarding around the nation is mindblowing. There’s something for everyone who’s down to do it and it has brought so much exposure to different areas, while bringing people together. Everyone is hyped for the much needed support. It brought the sport closer to home.” “Red Bull DIY gives a chance to local skaters to get creative and think outside the box,” said Gonzales. “A lot of skaters are content with skating a small box and a rail. This gives them an opportunity to go beyond that. I’m sure these guys are hyped Red Bull is able to help out the skate community. It brings more life to the skate scene.”
According to Matthew finals, Fritz was given the unenviable job of guarding a prime Sonny Jaworski. And I always kidded him that Sonny made him popular. But he had to accept that every time he tangled with Sonny and suffered a fall caused by a subtle push, he still got the boos and Sonny got the cheers. But he did stand his ground with Sonny and earned the grudging respect of serious basketball fans for his hard-nosed defense. Unfortunately for Fritz at that time, there still wasn’t a Defensive Player award or a Defensive Team selection, otherwise, Fritz would have been there at the very least. According to Matthew, attention then was on the scorers and it was a sacrifice to play pure defense, but the fulfilment of limiting his opponents was well worth the effort. More known as Fritz than Matthew, he went on to play with other PBA teams until his knee injuries forced him to retire after the 1986 season.
He went on to take up his Master’s degree at the Asian Institute of Management, because the PBA did not allow the use of the PBA educational fund for studies abroad, or else Fritz would have tried Wharton or Fordham University in the US. He went on a string of corporate jobs, but the truth is, he already worked with Mantrade in sales even while playing. He also had an expat stint in Indonesia with wife Duday Mandanas, also an expat worker. Fact is, he hosted me, my wife and his inaanak when we went to Jakarta in the early 1990s. Eventually, he returned to the country to go back to basketball with Mobiline, where he also had a corporate job with the firm. Manotoc was supposed to be the head coach with Fritz as an assistant, politics got in the way, and he had to move on, but managed to combine basketball with corporate work. He even coached Danny Francisco and Jun
Reyes to a UAAP championship in the mid 1980s at one time, and the women’s national squad to a silver finish in the SEABA in 2008 or 2009, I think. He was with the Games and Amusement Board for several years recently, but his last work was during the 2019 SEA Games, where was assigned in Clark. But now, he is happily retired from work and has turned into a plantito, tending the family garden. Now why do I know all this? Simple. He, together with his two volleyball playing daughters Therese and Pauline, Babang and Ponggay to friends, were guests in our sports vlog The SWAB, to be launched this Sunday on YouTube. It was a very interesting chat indeed with this cager, who was my best man in my wedding 37 years ago. We will feature Fritz and his daughters in Episodes 2 and 3. Watch our vlog and hear us admit we both tried marijuana in those good old days.

She has over 6.7M followers on Instagram, 8M on Facebook, 1.7M on TikTok, and 1.12M subscribers on YouTube.

Renz request THE simple act of writing down a song request on a tissue paper for a live band to play is a source of cute, sometimes absurd, anecdotes. Often the request comes with a peso or dollar bill of considerable worth. A showband singer releasing her solo debut album once told me that someone spat on a tissue handed to her. She had to share her experience to emphasize what it meant for her to finally make it. The story behind the creation of Moonstar88’s new single “Migration” is one falling in the category of hilarity. If you think the song has to do with their hit “Migraine,” you’re not far from the truth. It was actually inspired by a misspelled request of that track written on a paper napkin by a fan named Renz, very likely during one of the band’s pandemic-free gigs. Fans found the handwritten spell check malfunction so funny they kept sharing on social media the captured image of the request. It gained enough traction that the band came up with a witty response -- granting Renz’s request by making a new song using “Migration” as title.
POPSTAR Royalty Sarah Geronimo shared that while she is still in the adjustment period in her new role as wife and homemaker, she enjoys her married life and running her own household. “Everything is an adjustment period. I mentioned in one interview that I had to expedite my adulting,” she said. “Now, you have to be hands-on with what’s in your pantry, even your meal plan. You have to keep in mind not just the taste of your food, but if it’s healthy as well,” the multiplatinum artist added. Sarah also shared that she is grateful that Hanabishi came into her life when she was about to get married as it helped her adjust to her new home life. Her favorite Hanabishi appliances as of the moment are the stand mixer and hand mixer as she has recently tried her hand at baking and cooking. “Before, I was really intimidated with baking because it required precise and accurate measurements. It’s actually easy as long as you follow the recipe,” she said. When it comes to cooking, Sarah usually prefers Filipino dishes. She has made her own kare-kare, pinakbet, bangus sisig, and tuna empanada. Apart from her home life, Sarah is also busy with her career. Recently, she filmed a music video with Hanabishi which shows her singing and dancing to a song that highlights how the company provides products that are reliable and affordable. Since being uploaded last Oct. 11, the video has garnered more than 360,000 views and 1200 shares as of this writing. The hashtag HanabishiKapartner SARAH G has likewise ranked seventh on Twitter, with more than 10,000 tweets, when it was first released.

some of Hanabishi’s top-selling appliances and conveys how the local appliance maker is everyone’s reliable partner at home and in business. In shooting the music video, Sarah and the production team had to observe health and safety protocols. “There were safety measures that we need to observe to ensure that our environment is COVID-free. Even the utensils that we use were sterilized and disinfected. We ourselves need to use alcohol and wash our hands,” Sarah G revealed. She added that shoots these days are actually easier since everybody is careful and wants to go home the soonest. Meanwhile, Cherish Ong-Chua, Vice President for Finance and Marketing of Hanabishi Appliances, expressed the company’s excitement on these new projects with Geronimo. “We are happy to be able to continue our partnership with Sarah. We are glad Sarah can connect to our market, the young female homemakers, who are looking for appliances that they can rely on for their everyday and business needs. For the past months, we have experienced a surge in interest from those who are starting homebased businesses, and we are really happy that they have chosen our products to help them kick start their entrepreneurial endeavors,” she said.

As families are expected to stay longer in evacuation centers while they rebuild their homes, more donations are needed to support them. Jen Santos, ABS-CBN Foundation’s director for operations told ABS-CBN News that so far, many have shown interest to help and donate. “So many have donated and many said they want to help, asking us how they could provide assistance,” Santos said. Meanwhile, she said they are also missing the presence of ABS-CBN Regional, which had its last day last Aug. 31 due to the nonrenewal of ABS-CBN’s franchise to broadcast. Santos said that it is usually the staff from the regional stations that are first to respond to affected areas to distribute relief goods. Those who would like to help or donate can do so on the following platforms: https:// bit.ly/3ecoeD0.

Moonstar88, in collaboration with concept group BBS, created the new song ‘Migration’ out of a misspelling of their hit “Migraine” by a fan who requested they play it. (Inset) The now-viral tissue bearing the request was eventually used as image for the digital single.
The new track, recorded in collaboration with concept band BBS, was released last Oct. 23, along with the latter’s other song project in partnership with the group Gracenote. BBS is acronym for Big Band Syndicate which is composed of 6cyclemind members Darwin Hernandez and Rye Sarmiento. The duo collaborates with various artists of their choice. Hernandez is also the head of Soupstar Entertainment that manages a number of popular Filipino bands. Both Moonstar88 and Gracenote are under Soupstar so, obviously, the ingredients for the double-release were right there on the same table. “Migration” includes Migraine’s lyrics “Hanggang dito lang ako nangangarap na mapasayo” as it abruptly closes the song. In a way, the band poignantly acknowledged the fan request while the very image of it that went viral became the love song’s digital artwork. On the other hand, the Gracenote-sung single, “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay,” chose the pandemic blues for
lyrical backdrop. Frontwoman Eunice Jorge noted, “It’s a reminder to stop pretending that you’re okay and it’s normal to have struggles sometimes and admit that you need a hug.” With its upbeat vibe, the song aims to lighten the mood of listeners through a modern soundscape, with Eunice’s bassist brother Jazz doing the main vocals. He related, “The thought of me representing the band as main vocalist scares me to the bone. But the song makes me feel brave. The words ‘kaya mo yan’ and ‘wag sumuko’ may sound cliché, but we all need to hear those words from time to time and this song does that.” Both Soupstar Music releases embraced loose collaboration and amusingly new ideas. At least within its circle, BBS, which in 2018 released a song called “Reunion” featuring Medwin Marfil of True Faith, eventually began to mean “Basta Bago Siya.” Renz apparently started a joke that who knows may make the whole world sing.

Life HOUSEHOLD
Chic and classic Christmas colors
H
OLIDAY color themes depend on what the household prefers for the year. It can be red and gold, silver and blue, pink and white, or you can go nuts with as many colors as you want. At SM’s home department, three main color themes stand out this year—bringing festivity, a touch of luxury, and something wintry through holiday trimmings. Classic red
Red remains a classic Christmas color. SM Home has a number of ornaments such as nutcracker toy soldiers, potted berry trees, wreaths and Christmas trees, snow globes, and miniature vintage villages in this festive hue that will help showcase a traditional holiday scene at home. The home department suggests adding shades of white and a bit of sparkle for added flair. Nothing says festive quite like the color red as seen in these (clockwise) polar bears, Christmas Le Monde des Enfant Toy Factory Village, and Christmas tree adorned with red holiday ornaments.
Luxe gold
Metallic hues make an elegant and polished holiday look. Add a rosy palette with gold—a touch of antique brass and champagne—into your Christmas design for that chic, luxurious feel. Deck your Christmas tree with ornaments in this color. Achieve that chic and sophisticated champagne and rosy pink theme with luxe gold and pink ornaments.
Frosty white
Bring the winter wonderland to your home with a white palette that makes fir or frosted-berry tree merry and magical. SM Home has an array of sparkly silver and white ornaments, blended with luxurious ribbons to create a cozy, snowy feel. Dazzle it further with fairy lights to bring softer and ambient glow to the ornaments.
