XU aids Sendong victims

TO offset the impact of tuition fee increases that may adversely affect survivors of Typhoon Sendong, the Jesuitrun Xavier University (XU) is offering financial assistance to affected students for school year 2012-2013.

Current students need only to present their University assistance access card to the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid for those in the tertiary level or the Principal for those in elementary and high school prior to enrolment.

New students may present their DSWD cards.

Davao wage hike

DAVAO City -- Vice-Mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte has conceded that the P15 cost-of-living allowance (CoLA)approved in December last year by the regional tripartite wage and productivity board for Davao Region’s private sector workers is not enough to cover the basic needs of their families.

The board approved a P15 CoLA, which was to be implemented in two tranches: the P5 took effect last Jan. 1 and the second tranche took effect yesterday.

That brought the daily minimum wage for private sector workers in the region to P270-301.

“How much is the (public transport) fare now? And we have so many kilometers in the city. If you want to have impact on food (affordability) and improve the daily lives of workers, I think the adjustment should be P70,” Mr. Duterte told journalists here.

ONGRESS has asked the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) to enhance the incentives currently being offered to banks that will acquire troubled financial institutions to encourage mergers and prevent more closures of banks in the countryside.

This was contained in House Resolution 2222 filed by Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino Rep. Rufus Rodriguez of Cagayan de Oro even as he underscored the need to strengthen and enhance the incentives package in order to encourage big banks to acquire capital-deficient rural and cooperative banks in a bid to prevent more costly closures, which entail cost for the government, particularly to state-owned Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp.

Global competitiveness with ‘local technology’ sought

By MIKE BAÑOS, Correspondent

THE country’s foremost association of metalworking companies is looking to increase its global competitiveness with a little help from the Department of Science and Technology (DOST).

During his keynote speech at the recently concluded 25th National Convention of the Metalworking Industries Association of the Philippines (MIAP), Department of Science and Technology Mario G. Montejo said the domestic metalworking industries should focus on

making ‘local technology’ work to lower costs of imported technologies by as much as 75 percent.

“Competitiveness can be enhanced by cutting edge technology which can be developed locally,” Mr. Montejo said.

DTI warns retailers anew on sub-standard products

By CARINA L CAYON, Contributor

DAVAO City -– “Whoever is caught selling substandard products will be liable for violating the Product Standards Law of the Philippines.”

Te olu l o T. Pas aw a , provincial director of the Department of Trade and Industry-Davao City Field Office (DTI-DCFO) issued this statement in response

to protests of some store owners who insist that they should not be penalized since they are only selling what their suppliers provide them.

In commenting on questions and issues raised by the participants of the consumer welfare desk officers meeting recently, Pasawa explained that manufacturers and importers must ensure that what they manufacture or bring into the country comply with Philippine product standards.

But he quickly added

that retailers must also offer for sale only products that comply with the Philippine Product Standards if what they are selling is covered by mandatory standards.

Farmers, fisherfolks feted this month BUTUAN City -- The regional office of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) is set to launch this year’s celebration of Farmers’ and Fisherfolks’ Month.

The event recognizes the contributions to the national economy of the farmers and fisher folks, which constitute half of the labor force in the country.

BFAR-Caraga Regional Director Nerio G. Casil said the series of activities have been planned for the entire month of May, which are expected to benefit the marginal fisher folks in the region.

Meanwhile, another notable undertaking to be held during the opening program is the installation of the Fisherfolk Director by virtue of the Department of Agriculture Special Order No. 88, series

of 2005, where national and regional fisher folk leaders who had been chosen by their peers shall act as the BFAR directors at the national and regional levels for the whole month of May. Chosen from among the fisher folk council of leaders in Caraga Region to be this year’s regional director is a leader from Prosperidad, Agusan del Sur - Marceliano B. Monato Jr.- who will sit and do the work of the regional director of BFAR-13 during the duration of the Farmers’ and Fisherfolk’s month.

The reason for placing a fisher person regional director is to further dramatize and popularize their empowerment and participation as government partners.

In a congruent move, BFAR-13 Regional Director

Nerio G. Casil will immerse himself in the villages of his choice and view the fisheries sector through the eyes of a fisherman to gain fresh insights and keep in touch with the sector.

Other equally important activities that will mark the event include the regionwide fingerling dispersal, mangrove planting, and awarding of environmentfriendly fishing gears like gill nets, jiggers, and traps to deserving fisherfolk, in coordination with local government units.

Aside from the consistent above mentioned pertinent activities, the agency will likewise go into the various fisheries technology transfer through conducting enhancement trainings and seminars all geared towards the improvement of the fishery stakeholders.

548 complete skills training FIVE hundred forty-eight (548) participants in the Technology-Based Community Skills Training Program for Tropical Storm Sendong survivors formally completed their 400-hour training on April 30, 2012, said Cagayan de Oro City Mayor Vicente Y. Emano.

Among the free courses offered for the beneficiaries are beauty care services, general sewing, commercial cooking, massage therapy, automotive servicing, and

welding.

Representatives from the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) served as instructors/trainors for the participants in the 400-hour training, in partnership with the City Social Welfare and Development (CSWD) and the Community Improve-

Holcim cement reports flat 1Q earnings SWISS cement maker Holcim Philippines Inc. said it ended the first quarter with flat earnings despite higher sales and two rounds of price increases.

In a regulatory filing, the local unit of the multinational cement-maker said its net income slipped to P809 million in the January to March period from P819 million in the same period last year.

Total net sales grew 17 percent year-on-year to P6.6 billion, in line with the estimated growth of the industry, which benefitted from ramped-up government infrastructure spending and steady rollout of private construction projects.

“I think this year is going Holchim Phils. cement plant in Lugait, Misamis Oriental.

to be a good year. With a bit of luck, you’ll see doubledigit growth,” Ronald van Wijnen, Holcim Philippines chief operating officer, said in a briefing.

He said sales volume may rise by eight to 10 percent this year as the company sees momentum from strong public spending boosting cement demand.

Rising prices of electricity and coal, which account for 60 percent of variable cost, remain a challenge, van Wijnen however said.

UCPB extends life by 50 years THE United Coconut Planters Bank (UCPB) board, in a special meeting on May 2, voted extend the life of the bank by another 50 years to allow it to pursue its pioneering efforts in the banking industry and its key role in countryside development.

The extension of the bank’s corporate life allows the bank to continue its profitability as it set its sights on it’s performance for 2012 primarily by creating more technology-driven products and expanding its loan portfolio, remittance

business, fee income and branch network.

“With the extension of the bank’s corporate existence now a certainty, it can sustain its growth momentum towards becoming a bigger and stronger financial institution,” UCPB president and CEO Jeronimo Kilayko said.

“I also wish express my immense gratitude to the bank’s private and government shareholders for having taking a united stand in voting for the extension of the bank’s corporate life and, in essence, manifest

their earnest desire for the coconut industry’s common good long term benefits from UCPB’s commitment to continue helping develop this precious industry”, Kilayko added The bank’s extended life also assured that it will be able to benefit the government in the repayment of bank’s obligations while it is assured of continuing one of its primary mandates to improve the lives of Filipinos in the countryside who most need financial services and assistance.

The bank has a long his-

tory of leadership after its establishment in 1963 and its becoming the first private local bank to become a universal bank and obtaining its expanded commercial banking license in 1981.

Despite temporary impediments towards its further growth, UCPB plans to open 5 more UCPB branches during the year bringing the bank’s branch network to 193 -- allowing it greater market access, primarily coconut farmers and other industry stakeholders, whose welfare was the key UCPB/PAGE 10

To recover the cost increases since last year, the cement maker has raised prices by five percent this year, bringing average selling prices to P200 per bag, still below the 2010 price level of P214 per bag. In 2011, prices fell to as low as P165 per bag.

“We will try another one [price hike] this month so that we can actually achieve the 2010 level,” said Ed Sahagun, Holcim Philippines commercial director.

Anchored on the projected strong demand for cement, Holcim will reopen its idle grinding plant in Mabini, Batangas next year, which will partly reduce transport

costs and increase the company’s capacity by up to 22.5 million cement bags a year.

The cement manufacturer will spend P400 million to rehabilitate the facility, which was acquired in 2003 but operations of which was deferred because of low demand.

“Having facilities across the country –from North Luzon to Mindanao—gives Holcim Philippines the strong advantage of being near its markets, and our Mabini facility will help further strengthen capability and accessibility in bringing oyr products to where our customers are,” van Wijnen said.

GMA to put up Butuan station BROADCASTER GMA Network, Inc. is seeking a permit to put up a television station in Butuan City, documents from the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) showed.

The broadcaster on April 23 applied for a certificate of public convenience to install, operate and maintain a five-kilowatt ultra high frequency TV station in the Agusan Del Norte city.

LPG retailer Pryce posts profit growth PRYCE CORP., a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) retailer, reaped higher profits last year as revenues surged on higher selling prices and volumes, the company’s annual report showed.

Pryce posted a net income of P129.81 million last year, higher by 4.39% than the reported P124.35 million in 2010.

The company’s consolidated revenues rose in 2011, hitting P3.17 billion from P2.23 billion in the previous year.

Sales from LPG and industrial gases accounted for the bulk of the rev-

enues, or P3.08 billion.

“The growth in revenues from the year-ago level was mainly driven by sales of LPG which ballooned by 42.97% in peso terms. This upturn was fueled by both volume and price increases...” the company stated.

The company also said: “The fact that LPG sales improved substantially despite the significant price increases also indicates that traditional competing products like wood and charcoal are becoming more and [scarce] or also increasing in price, like kerosene.”

“Digitel has recently activated interconnections with other telcos and there are ongoing testing for the others for future interconnections,” the company said in a filing with the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC).

In its three-year forecast provided to the NTC, Digitel said there will be two links with Globe Telecom Inc. this year, an additional one next year and a total of five by 2014. Links between Digitel and Smart Communications Inc. will increase to four

and the rest are in Mindanao, according to the network’s annual report.

GMA Network ended the previous year with P1.715 billion net income after tax, down by 39.01% from P2.812 billion recorded in 2010 due to the absence of political advertisements seen in the 2010 election year.

The company is looking to spend P650 million this year, largely for two regional stations in Ilocos and Bicol.

Digitel expands regional telecom links from two this year before ending 2014 with seven links.

For this year, Digitel and Innove Communications Inc. have four links.

By 2014, their tieups will increase to a total of 14.

Digitel and parent firm Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) will have eight tieups this year.

By 2013, their linkages will reach 17. Two years from now, they will have a total of 27.

Digitel shared this information with the NTC in support of its application for an issuance of a certificate of public convenience and necessity (CPCN) as its provisional authority (PA)

to operate and maintain a nationwide local exchange carrier (LEC) services will expire on May 2.

To date, Digitel has six exchanges in the Visayas and Mindanao with total installed capacity of 4,040,524 lines. It has already covered eight provinces each in the Visayas and Mindanao.

The company also told the commission that it has upgraded equipment and installed new ones to accommodate additional requirements of the covered areas.

“In view of foregoing, Digitel moves for the issuance of the corresponding CPCN to establish, install, operate and maintain LEC

services in the Visayas and Mindanao regions upon expiration of its PA for the LEC services rollout in the area on May 2,” it said.

Likewise, with the acquisition by PLDT of Digitel, interconnection would be easier and material in providing competitive LEC services in the Visayas and Mindanao. This is in addition to the fact that existing facilities of PLDT in the area could be utilized by Digitel for cost-efficiency and to enhance its existing services and expand its roll-out to other areas in the region.

Digitel booked P606 million in net losses last year.

“Media as it is today will not help us,” he stressed, explaining that in most newsrooms “good news is not news”, aside from the fact that the public service role of the media is severely eroded that most journalists have no compassion toward their audience.

Suppakorn Chinvanna, senior research advisor at the Southeast Asia SysTem for Analysis, Research and Training (SEA START) — a global network that supports multidisciplinary research on the interactions between humans and the environment — explained that the media is failing in its reportage on climate change because the issue has not really sink in into the consciousness and heart of the media.

“Everyone knows and talks about climate change.

But what does it mean to you?” he asked the 11 journalists from Asia and Southeast Asia selected to participate in the Climate Change: A Reporting Lens from Asia workshop.

Chinvanna said that everything starts from storylines. “What is your personal story” why climate change is important to you?

He also said that another factor why media miserably fails in reporting climate

change is because the media is “confused between ‘climate change’ and ‘weather’.”

“If you have a confused media, it naturally begets a confused audience,” he stressed.

To avoid confusion, the media should instead use terms that are easily understood by them and avoid using “climate change” and “weather” in their stories.

They should also relate the issue to everything — from economics to agriculture, etc.

“Climate change cannot be seen in isolation—it relates to everything around us. Tackling climate change is not possible in a vacuum, it needs to be integrated into overall development paradigm,” said Rizvi.

But in tackling the inter-relationship of climate change and other issues, journalists must be as “simple as a simpleton.”

“Journalists want to show off, that is why we use high-sounding and scientific terms we don’t even understand or know. We must remember that our job is to raise the awareness of our audience. We should avoid terms that have the potential of losing our audience. If we have to use a term, we have to explain its meaning,” stressed Dixit.

Again, it all boils down to passion and compassion.

“In our passion for climate change reporting, we have to have compassion for our audience,” he added.

Rizvi said that Asia, a basically agricultural region where 60 percent or 2.2 billion people of the economically active population rely on agriculture for their livelihoods, and Southeast Asia — where agriculture employs more than 60 percent of the region’s labour force — must take an active role in trying to halt the disastrous impact of climate change.

“Asia is likely to suffer more from climate change than the global average. The region, therefore, has a high stake in taking action,” he said.

And the media in the region “must use the power in its hands” toward this end.

But “the media is failing in reporting climate change because [reports] have no impact on the common people,” Rizvi added.

“There should be a paradigm shift in the media inorder for it to be helpful,” rejoined Dixit.

Letting the media play “business as usual” in its reporting on climate change will not help because present reportage is what Dixit called “disastrous cover-

Depositors to file estafa case vs Export Bank execs SEVERAL depositors of the closed Export and Industry Bank (EIB) are planning to file charges of syndicated estafa against bank officials.

Lawyer Ferdinand Topacio, who claims to represent 15 disgruntled depositors of EIB, said his clients told him that bank managers prevented them from withdrawing their money. The managers reportedly assured them their money would be safe because BDO Unibank would be buying the bank.

Topacio is also calling on the Department of Justice to investigate the bank’s closure.

One depositor, who has more than P30 million in deposits, claimed she repeatedly asked the branch manager if she can withdraw her money a few weeks before the bank’s closure last Friday.

But the bank manager reportedly discouraged her from taking out her money, with the assurance that BDO is already going to rescue Export bank.

Hundreds of EIB depositors trooped to the Makati Coliseum on Wednesday to attend the Depositors’ Forum organized by the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp. (PDIC). Most of the depositors were at a

loss and still in shock that their deposits were trapped in the closed bank.

Last Monday, the PDIC announced that deposits of P10,000 and below will be

Live Before You Leave THINK a minute…

They say, “The greatest risk is not taking one.”

Why is it when we grow up and become adults, we stop sticking our necks out and taking chances? Yet, at the end of our life, we’ll probably regret the things we did not do more than the things we did.

Remember all the new things in life you learned to do that were big risks the first time you did them?

Your first time to swim, your first time to ride a bicycle, your first time to drive a car. Some of the things we do all the time now seemed almost impossible before we did them the first time.

The great French leader,

Napolean, said: “The word impossible is found only in the dictionary of fools and failures.” So ask yourself: “Is the word impossible in the dictionary of my life?”

Do you say “I can’t” more often than you say “I can?”

Sometimes “you have to go out on a limb if you want to get the best fruit!”

We have to learn to be comfortable with uncomfortable challenges, because we can’t discover new oceans unless we’ve got the courage to lose sight of the shore. We need to believe that the best jobs haven’t been found yet, and the best work hasn’t been done yet. But we can’t have the life we want if we don’t change the life we have.

A successful woman said: “A bad habit never goes away by itself; it’s always an undo-it-yourself project.”

Smart people sometimes change their minds—but fools never do.

So we have to leave our comfort zone if we want to reach a new kind of success.

Don’t allow yourself to be buried alive in your comfort zone, like many people do.

Pawnshop Regulation (Concluded from last week) FINANCIAL consumers, especially those who transact with pawnshops, would be happy to know that the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) actively supervises pawnshop operations.

In addition to coordinating with local government units in weeding out businesses illegally operating as pawnshops, the Bangko Sentral also conducts inspections of pawnshops to ensure that they adhere to applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

The Integrated Supervision Department I (ISD I) of the BSP said that beginning 2012, inspections of pawnshops have been intensified “owing to the increasing role that these institutions play in bringing about formal financial services to the Filipino people.”

These inspections focus

on consumer protection and compliance with AntiMoney Laundering Regulations.

The popularity of pawnshops has also caught the attention of the country’s lawmakers. In June 2010, a bill co-authored and sponsored by Senators Miriam Defensor Santiago and Manuel Villar was filed in the Senate to amend the Pawnshop Regulation Act. Among the proposed provisions of the bill are the following: Increase the required capitalization of pawnshop from P100,000 to P1,000,000.

Only a corporation will be allowed to operate as a pawnshop.

Redemption period will be limited on electronic items.

Transfer the supervision and regulations of pawnshops to the Securities and Exchange Commission

(SEC).

However, as of 31 December 2011, no further action had been taken on the Senate bill.

The ISD I noted that pawnshops now cater to all segments of the population “as their operations vary depending on the location of the outlet and needs of the customers.” In Makati City, for example, there are several pawnshops that accept works of art (paintings, sculpture), expensive watches (Breitling, Breguet, Rolex) and bags (Bottega Veneta, Chanel, Louie Vuitton).

On the other hand, outlets located in the countryside such as those in San Mariano, Isabela, cater to customers offering usual personal items such as jewelry and appliance sets, or even tractors used in farming.

The ISD I pointed out that pawnshop customers

Can NorMin Sustain Itself?

Northern Mindanao is home to two of the most populous highly urbanized cities (HUCs) in the country, Cagayan de Oro (813,856) and Iligan (322,821). Cagayan de Oro City placed ninth in the Top Ten Most Populous HUCs, while Iligan placed 25th. The City of Cagayan de Oro’s population grows at approximately 2.69 percent annually based on the population on years 2000-2010. Iligan City’s population growth rate was observed at 1.25 percent.

Indeed, the total population of the Northern Mindanao as of May 1, 2010 hits 4.3 million. This was officially declared together with the country’s total population last March 30, 2012 when President Benigno Simeon Cojuangco Aquino III signed Proclamation No. 362.

The results revealed that the region has grown 2.06 percent annually since year 2000 which places it at the ninth spot among other regions in the country put-

ting CALABARZON on top at 12.6 million and NCR at the second spot with 11.86 million.

The results also showed that the region’s population is among the country’s fastest growing ranking at 4th next to CALABARZON (3.07), SOCCSKSARGEN (2.46) and Central Luzon (2.14). Davao region (1.97) completes the top five fastest growing regions.

The population growth brought over concerns on the provision of the basic needs of the people concerning health, food supply, security, housing and many others. These concerns caused an unease on the part of population control proponents to expedite the approval of the Reproductive Health Bill highlighting not only the control of population increase but as well as the health of the population. This may trigger again the two opposing views on population growth –those of the population pessimists and the popula-

tion optimists. It reminds me of a debate that took place in my Population Development class at Capitol University when we scrutinized the Malthusian model of population growth against Ester Boserup’s own paradigm on population growth and other views emanating from policy analysts, commentators and researchers.

Thus, the question arises: “With the given increase of population, can Northern Mindanao sustain itself?

It may be recalled that the Medium-Term Regional Development Plan (MTRDP) of Northern Mindanao for the years 2011-2016 envisions Northern Mindanao to be the leading industrial core and trade center in Southern Philippines with dynamic men and women enjoying equal opportunities in harnessing and sustaining its agriculture and natural resources in building a decent, harmonious and safe environment.

It sets a target of making Northern Mindanao as the

Least cost solutions to Mindanao blackouts

By DAVID A. TAULI

(1st of a series) Hello there, Mr. Chanco, Aboitiz people, and DOE officers.

Thank you, Mr. Chanco, for giving greater publicity to my post about the Mindanao blackouts. I hope you continue to give some of your space to the three other posts that I made in response to the issues brought up by Sec. Almendras in his letter to me on April 4, 2012.

I will respond later to your column in the Philippine Star of April 18. While waiting for what I have to say about that, you and the Aboitiz and the DOE people might want to answer the allegations below by Cong. Teddy Casiño, who has a better grasp than I have of the political undercurrents (maybe cronyism is a more accurate term) beneath the Mindanao blackouts. I understand only the technical and economic causes and repercussions of the blackouts, and I will confine myself to those.

You should not try to divert the issues with red herrings concerning alleged misbehavior

by MINERGY and CEPALCO. The questions we are try-

Aves... from page 6

that necessitate careful deliberation among planners. For instance, we have to take note of the following : • The latest official poverty statistics that are based on (per Capita) income data sourced from the Family Income and Expenditures Survey (FIES) 0f 2009 revealed that in the bottom 40% income group, they spent all what they have earned such that they do not have any savings at all.

• More or less, on average a person usually consumes two sacks of rice annually.

Given the population of the region, farmers should have produced 7.8 million sacks of rice. Moreover, for this year, they have to produce approximately 9 million sacks of rice.

• On health, it is expected

ing to address are: What are the causes of the Mindanao Blackouts of 2010 and 2012?

What are the government proposals to address the ongoing blackouts? How effective are these proposals, and what would be their repercussions on the Mindanao economy? What are the alternative options that would work better than the government proposals?

It may interest you to know that the present owners of the CEPALCO group of companies have been trying to keep me from my advocacy for adequate and affordable electric power for Mindanao. They are afraid (correctly as it turns out) that people in high places in government may take it against CEPALCO and affiliates that one of their employees is criticizing government policies and programs in the electric power sector.

The Aboitiz people already told me in 2010 that if I continue to criticize their business transactions in the power sector (in particular the NGCP-TMI ASPA), then they will also criticize CEPALCO and its affiliates. I told Bobby Orig, at that time recently transferred to the Aboitiz Power Corp from DLPC, and others that that 131 doctors are needed to take care of patients and at the same time we will need 4,476 hospital beds for these patients.

However, professional doctors are either migrating to foreign countries or shifting to another profession to become nurses if given the opportunity.

• For the maintenance of peace and order, on average Northern Mindanao needs approximately 6,000 policemen.

• The latest results of the population count shows that there are already 209 persons per square kilometer in the region. If we take a closer look at Cagayan de Oro City, which is the biggest city in the region in terms of population with a land area of 412.8 square kilometers, there are already 1,458 persons in every square kilometer.

The scenario brings us back to the question - Can Northern Mindanao sustain itself?

issuing institutions.

However, the continuous growth of remittances from overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) has encouraged most pawnshops to engage in remittance agency (RA) and foreign exchange dealing/money changing (FX/ MC).

As of 31 December 2011,

CEPALCO has nothing to do about my public advocacy.

(A member of the BOD of CEPALCO recently released a Disclaimer against my advocacy as a member of the Mindanao Coalition of Power Consumers.) Notwithstanding that, the Aboitiz now appear to be waging a publicity war of innuendo and insinuation against the CEPALCO group. I think that is stupid on the part from page 1 of the Aboitiz, but I am not surprised knowing the kind of insurance claims.

Rodriguez said the Moncapitalists that they are. I wish the CEPALCO officers will have etary Board (MB) of the BSP the courage to respond to the is currently implementing Aboitiz in kind.

pawnshops that engage in RA and FXD/MC activities totaled 5,677s — consisting of 691 head offices and 4,986 branches.

However, the ISD I said that although the abovementioned corollary businesses augment the pawnshops’ profits, these require a significant amounts of investment in information technology facilities, which only a handful of pawnshop

can afford and maintain.

In conclusion, many analysts believe that pawnshop businesses thrive during economic hardships as more people pawn their personal items to fund their liquidity needs. Pawnshops, in this regard, have proved to be resilient during these changing times.

rural banks (RBs), mainly those that are capital deficient.

“The SPRB recognizes the vital role of rural banks in providing financial services to the community, particularly to their specialized or niche markets and intends to promote the merger, consolidation and acquisition between or among eligible STPIs and eligible RBs, to create a stronger rural banking system that can more effectively serve the countryside and better contribute in ensuring balanced and sustainable economic growth in our country,” Ro-

driguez said.

He said that while the intention of the BSP in implementing the SPRB is very laudable, there seems to be a lack of takers considering the perceived insufficient incentives to be provided.

According to Rodriguez, the existing incentives package at present under the SPRB allows the state-run PDIC and the central bank to extend loan support and to grant regulatory relief to banks that will acquire rural banks suffering from capitalization problems.

consequence would be that land conflicts could be even more numerous and complex than they are now and possibly are more abrasive, if not even violent. The Government, recognize the worthy purposes of the Torrens system should be the first to accept the validity of titles issued thereunder once the conditions laid down by the law are satisfied.

12. In the present case, although defendant Dominguez did obtain a decree in his favor, his failure to obtain his certificate after the lapse of more that 65 years is tantamount to an abandonment of such right. For which reason, the principle of laches operates against him.

13. Laches has been defined in the failure or neglect, for an unreasonable length of time to do that which by exercising due diligence could or should have been done earlier. It is negligence or omission to assert a right within a reasonable time, warranting a presumption that the party entitled to assert it has either abandoned it or declined to assert it.

WHEREAS, quoted hereunder is the Complaint, to wit .

1. Plaintiff Republic of the Philippines is a sovereign political entity vested with power and capacity to sue. For purposes of this action, all pleadings, notices and other court processes may be served on its statutory counsel, the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) at 134 Amorsolo Street, Legaspi Village, Makati City.

2. Defendant Crisanto Dominguez is of legal age, with capacity to sue and be sued, and a resident of Alubijid, Misamis Oriental, where he may be served with summons and other court processes.

3. Defendant Land Registration Authority (LRA) is impleaded being the agency mandated to issue decrees of registration and certificates of title and register- documents, patents and other land transactions. It may be served with summons and other court processes at the LRA, East Avenue cor. MA Road, Quezon City.

4. Defendant Dominguez appeared to be the owner of a parcel of land located in Alubijid, Municipality of Laguindingan, Misamis Oriental designated as Lot No. 12447, Cadastral No 237 with an area of forty seven, thousand nine hundred seventeen (47,917) square meters.

5. Based on the record of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources - Land Management Services (DENR-LMS) in Cagayan de Ore City, the Bureau of Lands conducted a cadastral survey of the subject Lot sometime in 1933 (annex “A”).

6. Thereafter, the said land was among those subject of the operation of cadastral proceedings and was issued on September 01, 1941 Decree No. 756524 in Cadastral Case No. 27 ( Annex “B”). After its issuance, Decree No. 756524 was then recorded by defendant LPA in its book 7. The record of the Registry of Deeds of Cagayan de Oro City would reveal however that no title to Lot 12447 was issued in favor of defendant (Annex “C”).

8. Considering that the Decree was issued in 1941, it has been note than sixty-five (65) years that the property remained untitled.

9. In Republic vs. Hon. Alon ,1 citing Republic vs. Heirs of Villa Abrille2 The Supreme Court held that in land registration proceedings the following procedure must be complied with xxx (10) Issuance of the decree by the Court declaring the decision final and instructing the Land Registration Commission to issue a decree of confirmation and registration, (11) Entry of the decree of registration in the Land Registration Commission; (12) Sending of copy of the decree of registration to the corresponding Register of Deeds and (13) Transcription of the decree of registration in the registration book and the issuance of the owners duplicate original certificate of title to the applicant by the Register of Deeds upon payment of the pre scribed fees.

10. Indeed, a property becomes registered land only upon transcription of the decree in the original registration book of the Register of Deeds. It follows that until the original certificate of title is issued by the Register of Deeds, the property subject, of a cadastral proceedings not yet a registered land.

11. A Torrens Certificate of Title is the best evidence of ownership issued by the Register of Deeds to the owner of a particular land which is registered under the Torrens system of registration.3 The significance of registration under the Torrens system cannot be undermined in Traders Royal Bank vs. Court of Appeals.4 the Supreme Court reiterates the importance of registration: The main purpose of the Torrens system is to avoid possible conflicts of title to real estate and to facilitate transactions relative hereto by giving the public the right to rely upon the face of the Torrens certificate of title and to dispense with the need of inspiring further except when the party concerned has actual knowledge of facts gad circumstances that should impel a reasonably cautious man to make such further inquiry. Where innocent third persons relying on the correctness of the certificate of title thus issued, acquire rights over the property, the court cannot disregard such rights and order the total cancellation of the certificate. The effect of such an. outright cancellation would be to impair public confidence in the certificate of title, for everyone dealing with the property registered under the Torrent system would have to inquire in every instance as to whether the title has been regularly or irregularly issued by the court. Every person dealing with registered land may safely rely on the correctness of the certificate of title issued therefor and the law will is no way oblige him to go beyond the certificate to determine the condition of the property.

The Torrens system was adopted in this country because it was believed to be the most effective measure to guarantee the integrity of land titles and to protect their indefensibility once the claim of ownership is established and recognized. If a person purchase a piece of land on the assurance that the seller’s title thereto is valid, he should not run the risk of being told late that his acquisition was ineffectual after all.

This would not only be unfair to him. What is worse is that if this were permitted, public confidence in the system would be eroded and land transaction would have to be attended by complicated and not necessarily conclusive investigations and proof of ownership. The further

Solons urge incentives for RB acquisitions ADMINISTRATION lawmakers urged the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) to enhance the incentives currently being offered to financial institutions that will acquire troubled rural banks to encourage mergers and prevent more closures of banks in the countryside.

Cagayan de Oro Rep. Rufus Rodriguez and Abante Mindanao party-list Rep. Maximo Rodriguez Jr. filed House Resolution 2222 calling on the BSP to strengthen and enhance the incentives package in order to encourage big banks to acquire capital-deficient rural and cooperative banks in a bid to prevent more costly closures.

They said bank closures entail cost for the government, particularly to stateowned Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp. (PDIC), given the need to pay deposit insurance claims.

The Cagayan de Oro lawmaker said the Monetary Board (MB) of the BSP is currently implementing the Strengthening Program for Rural Banks (SPRB), a

milestone project jointly conceptualized by the BSP and the PDIC to encourage mergers, consolidations and acquisitions (MCAs) via the grant of financial assistance (FA) to eligible strategic third party investors (STPI) desiring to enter into MCA with eligible rural banks (RBs), mainly those that are capital deficient.

“The SPRB recognizes the vital role of rural banks in providing financial services to the community, particularly to their specialized or niche markets and intends to promote the merger, consolidation and acquisition between or among eligible STPIs and eligible RBs, to create a stronger rural banking system that can more effectively serve the countryside and better contribute in ensuring balanced and sustainable economic growth in our country,” Rodriguez said.

He said while the intention of the BSP in implementing the SPRB is very laudable, “there seems to be

a lack of takers considering the perceived insufficient incentives to be provided.”

He said the existing incentives package at present under the SPRB allows the state-run PDIC and the central bank to extend loan support and to grant regulatory relief to banks that will acquire rural banks suffering from capitalization problems.

He said industry players believed that banks did not find the incentives attractive enough to agree to take on the burden of acquiring a troubled rural bank, including all its debts and other liabilities.

“Although the BSP considers the country’s overall banking sector in good shape, driven by the strong financial performance of universal, commercial and thrift banks, some rural and cooperative banks are facing capitalization and management problems which make the SPRB more important in order to strengthen the overall rural and cooperative banking sectors,” Rodriguez said.

“We need to develop manpower which is also in demand abroad,” he noted.

“If we train many, even if they go abroad, there will be some that will be left behind to man our local industry.

DOST will help conduct this training through the Metals Industry Research and Development Center (MIRDC) he added.

Maximo Rodriguez distributes chicken meat and vegetables to Sendong survivors who are temporarily housed at the relocation center at barangay Canitoan in Cagayan de Oro.
