Dr. Ashley Lopez, acting officer of the City Health Office (CHO), said they are just finishing the inoculation of the primary group including those employees of the infirmaries and dialysis centers. “Then we will proceed for the senior citizens pero hospital-based sila,” Lopez said in a text message. He also said emphasized that the 77,000 senior citizens will still have to undergo health screening to determine if there is any reason they should not get the Covid-19 vaccine. Meanwhile, the city government started this week the pre-registration of Dabawenyos,

who want to be inoculated against Covid-19. Dr. Josephine Villafuerte, the Head of Davao City’s Covid-19 Vaccination Cluster, said that Dabawenyos who are 18 years old and above can go to the nearest district and barangay health offices in their area to be pre-listed until their turn to get vaccinated. She said they can go to their district health offices, barangay health stations, or even their barangay captains through the barangay health workers and bring with them any proof of identification to be presented to the barangay or district health workers. She said here are three vaccination hubs ready for the vaccination of the general public namely University of Southeastern Philippines (USEP), Ateneo

LTFRB 11 to hear D PUV drivers’ woes

‘Balik Probinsya’ sends 6 families home to DavNor

By MAYA M. PADILLO he regional office of the Land Transportation and Franchising Regulatory Board (LTFRB 11) assured it will listen to the concerns of the public utility vehicles (PUVs) drivers affected by the implementation of the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program (PUVMP).

The PUVMP is a flagship program of the Duterte administration which envisions a restructured, modern, well-managed and environmentally sustainable transport sector

where drivers and operators have stable, sufficient and dignified livelihoods while commuters get to their destinations quickly, safely and comfortably.

In its Facebook account, LTFRB 11 posted the conduct of the 2nd Transport Cooperative Forum and Caravan last March 18, 2021 at LTFRB-RFRO No. 11 Driver’s Academy Hall, Libby Road, Bago Gallera, Davao City. “We have to listen to your valid concerns. The main reason ngano anaa mo karon diri, mao ni ang avenue aron inyohang ipadayag ang inyohang gibati. Kaning inyohang mga mulo amoa kining ipaabot sa taas aron ma-

dunggan kamo. Dili lang karon pero kanunay nga abri amoang opisina para maminaw sa inyohang mulo”, said Nonito A. Llanos III, regional director of LTFRB 11.

avao del Norte provincial government officials welcomed Friday six families that availed of the government's "Balik Probinsya, Bagong Pag-asa Program" (BP2) In a statement, the National Housing Authority in Region 11 (NHA-11) said families consisting of 19 individuals are from Tagum City, Panabo City, Kapalong, and Sto. Tomas, all in Davao del Norte province. They all arrived by plane at the Davao International Airport (DIA) here. Zenaida M. Cabiles, NHA-11 manager, said the beneficiaries are pioneer recipients of the BP2 program after the province agreed to accommodate them. “They are those living at the National Capital Region (NCR) who

are either affected by the pandemic, displaced workers, or living in dangerous areas who wished to go home to their provinces voluntarily,” Cabiles. Cabiles said the NHA is tasked to provide technical and administrative support by coordinating with various local government units (LGUs) and facilitating their return. Jorina Sevilla, one of the beneficiaries of the program, said they were only renting a house in Quezon City and could no longer afford to pay for their unit, especially during the pandemic. "Living there is so hard, and we could no longer afford it,” Sevilla said in vernacular. Noel Daquiag, Davao del Norte provincial tour-

3M doses of Sputnik V coming after EUA grant

he government will order some three million doses of the Sputnik V Covid-19 vaccine developed by Russia’s Gamaleya Institute after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an emergency use authorization (EUA). National Task Force Against Covid-19 chief implementer Carlito Galvez Jr. said on Friday an initial meeting is set Tuesday. “Our initial request is for them to deliver more or less three million doses this coming April or May,” he said during the Palace press briefing. Negotiations will also involve allowing local government units (LGUs) and private firms to procure Sputnik V jabs.

"More or less, 20 to 30 countries na po ang gumagamit na po ng (are using the) Gamaleya Sputnik V. And we are requesting na mabigyan tayo ng (to procure) at least two million man lang this coming April," he added. In a separate press briefing, FDA Director-General Eric Domingo said they issued the EUA after interim data from the ongoing phase three trials of Gamaleya National Center of Epidemiology and Microbiology showed an overall efficacy of 91.6 percent in preventing Covid-19. “The efficacy rate is consistent among all age groups, 18 and older," he said.

n official of the World Health Organization (WHO) on Friday said the current surge of infections of the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) in the country has been observed to be also occurring recently in other parts of the world. In a Zoom presser, WHO Representative to the Philippines Dr. Rabindra Abeyasinghe said one of the possible causes of the rise in Covid-19 infections was “vaccine optimism,” a phenomenon that was observed to occur in countries where the rollout of vaccines for Covid-19 has begun. “The arrival of the vaccines and the optimism that the vaccines brought has resulted in the decreased compliance in public health protocols. At a community

level, it has opened room for the virus transmission to increase,” Abeyasinghe said. A similar spike in new infections, he said, is occurring in developed countries that have been administering Covid-19 vaccines to its population for several months, such as the United States and France. He said the recent focus on planning for a vaccine rollout at the local government level may also have resulted in lapses in the implementation of minimum public health standards such as wearing face masks, shields, observing physical distancing, among others. “Because there was the optimism that the vaccines will come, that the economy will bounce back.

In a statement, BSP Deputy Governor Francisco Dakila Jr. said auction results “continue to reflect market participants’ factoring in of higher inflation expectations in their search for yields.” “Nonetheless, financial system liquidity remains ample.

World Bank rolls out vaccine funds for impoverished Asian nations

he World Bank on Thursday announced financing for Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Nepal to vaccinate their populations against Covid-19. Afghanistan will receive $113 million -- including $60 million from the International Development Association (IDA), part of the Washington-based development lender that helps the world's poorest nations -- to "deploy safe and effective Covid-19 vaccines," it said. "The World Bank has worked closely with the Afghan government and development partners to respond effectively to Covid-19, improve testing and treatment, and strengthen the country's health system," World Bank Country Director for Afghanistan Henry Kerali said. "This additional financing is a major step forward to provide timely and equi-

table access to vaccines to millions of Afghans." The funding package is aimed at vaccinating 17 percent of Afghans and helping the country recover from the pandemic, the lender said. Via the IDA, the World Bank approved $500 million in Bangladesh and $75 million for Nepal. "In addition to financing, the Bank is providing technical assistance and knowledge-sharing workshops for countries in South Asia on different aspects of designing and deploying fair and equitable vaccine strategies," the statement said. Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Nepal are among Asia's poorest nations by GDP per capita. In total, the World Bank had provided $12 billion for developing countries to procure and distribute Covid-19 vaccines, tests and treatments.

BSP hikes balance of payment surplus projection to $6.2-billion this year

xpectations for an economic recovery, buoyed by optimism on the Philippines’ coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) vaccination program, made monetary authorities revise further the balance of payment (BOP) surplus projection this year. As of the first quarter of this year, BSP’s BOP surplus projection for this year amounts to USD6.2 billion, higher than the USD3.3-billion surplus projection last December but lower than the USD16-billion surplus in end-December 2020. “This is consistent with the expected higher current account surplus and lower anticipated outflows in the financial account,” BSP Department of Economic Research managing director Zeno Ronald Abenoja said during a virtual briefing aired over the central bank’s Facebook page Friday. BOP is a measure of a

country’s total monetary transactions with the rest of the world in a certain period. BSP’s latest current account (CA) forecast is USD9.1 billion, higher than the USD6.1 percent last December. Last year, the CA posted a USD13-billion surplus, the highest since 2013 according to monetary authorities. Abenoja attributed the upward revision in the CA projection to a broad-based recovery in exports and imports. To date, goods exports are expected to grow by 8 percent, higher than the 5-percent forecast earlier. Goods imports growth projection was revised to 12 percent from 8 percent last December. On the other hand, the financial account is projected to post a lower surplus of USD4 billion from USD4.4 billion last December. The end-2020 figure was a deficit of USD5.8 billion.

New PCA Board prioritizes creation of Coco Industry Development Plan

he Department of AgriculturePhilippine Coconut Authority (DA-PCA) bared that its newly reconstituted Board has agreed to prioritize the crafting of Coconut Farmers and Industry Development Plan (CFIDP). DA-PCA Administrator Benjamin Madrigal, Jr. on Friday said the CFIDP, which will be submitted to the Office of the President for approval within 120 days, was among their most urgent activities during the Board's first meeting on March 15. In December 2020, the DA supported the proposed legislation of both chambers of Congress creating a coconut industry trust fund from the proceeds of the coconut levy. The DA said the trust fund will be disbursed in accordance with the CFIDP, which is also mandated

to complete the coconut farmers registry. The Plan will be reviewed annually. By virtue of Republic Act No. 11524, otherwise known as the Coconut Farmers and Industry Trust Fund Act, the PCA Board now chaired by Agriculture Secretary William Dar, and assisted by Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez as vice-chair -- designated a corporate secretary and created a transition committee chaired by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to help provide overall direction to ensure a coherent and coordinated

approach to pursue plans for the development of the country’s coconut industry. Meanwhile, Dominguez underscored the allocation of the multi-billion coconut levy fund that will revitalize the coconut sector and leads to President Rodrigo Duterte’s vision for agricultural modernization and financial inclusion for all Filipinos. "The PHP75-billion coconut levy fund will now directly benefit the country's 2.5 million small coconut farmers and their families, by way of a trust fund to be used for yielding more value-added coconut products and unleashing the full economic potentials of this industry," Dominguez, who previously served as Agriculture secretary during President Corazon Aquino's term, said. Apart from these, Madrigal cited that they presented several items

for the Board's approval including the proposed selection process for fa r m e r - re p re s e n t a t ive s within 30 days; completion of the coconut farmers registry within 90 days; and forging of a memorandum of agreement between the PCA Board and several government agencies that will receive coconut trust fund allocation to implement various programs as provided for under RA 11524. “With the leadership and guidance of the newly reconstituted and strengthened PCA Board, we are confident that transformative reforms toward the modernization and industrialization of the coconut industry with direct benefits to our dear coconut farmers envisioned in RA 11524 will finally be a reality,” Madrigal said.

COVID-19 cases recently could “never” be blamed for the gradual reopening of domestic tourism. "Since we've started the slow but sure reopening of tourism destinations, no outbreak of COVID because of tourism, never, not because of tourism," Puyat explained. The Department of Tourism (DOT) has been aggressive in promoting local tourism, one sector hit hard by the health crisis. This, after the government strictly regulated domestic and interna-

tional travel since March last year. Government in late February, however, eased travel protocol across provinces and cities. The new rules included the removal of mandatory COVID-19 testing and quarantine for local travelers except if they exhibit virus symptoms. The Department of the Interior and Local Government had defended this move, blaming instead the public’s supposed complacency on minimum health protocols leading to the

surge, and not the easing of travel protocols, a decision officials said was “backed by science.” With the Philippines seeing another surge in daily coronavirus cases, meanwhile, Puyat said: "It is very important, especially for the upcoming Holy Week, for all travelers to understand that a lot of tourist destinations ask for tests before travel." She also emphasized that being negative for COVID-19 does not mean “doing whatever you want to do.”

DOT chief: Spike in COVID-19 cases not because we reopened tourism

Metro Davao Authority

A piece of good news amid the pandemic is the approval on second reading of a bill creating the Metropolitan Davao Development Authority (MDDA) or House Bill No. 8930 during the House of Representatives’ plenary session last Wednesday. Deputy Speaker Isidro T. Ungab, the vital measure’s author, explained that the bill aims to create MDDA consisting of 10 cities and municipalities in response to the fast growth and peculiar urbanization of Davao Region citing its increasing social and economic demands that require a synchronized and unified development. Congressman Ungab said that the bill is also guided by the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) particularly the PDP 2017-2022 or the Philippine Medium Term Development Plan, which incorporates a National Spatial Strategy (NSS) that sets the direction of the physical development on its economic, social, institutional and environmental settings. “The national spatial strategy or NSS seeks to decongest the National Capital Region and direct the growth to key centers throughout the country in which the benefit of regional agglomeration can have better potential of being realized sooner,” the veteran lawmaker said. MDDA is one of the metropolitan centers mentioned in

the PDP, which is a major international gateway and serves as Mindanao’s commercial hub and center for education and health services. “This bill I know will definitely bring change to the socio-economic landscape, growth and development of Davao Region,” he said. The bill finds support in the Philippine Constitution, particularly Section 13 Article 10 of 1987 Constitution which provides that “local government units can group themselves and consolidate or coordinate their efforts, services and resources for purposes commonly beneficial to them in accordance with law.” Mr. Ungab’s legislative measure has the full support of Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio who announced last year that the proposed MDDA will involve the unified management of waste, traffic, disaster resiliency, and infrastructure as well as policy development. The mayor also said that the creation of MDDA will help manage infrastructure, garbage, disaster, traffic and other vital public services in four cities and two big municipalities in the Davao Region. It is quite clear therefore that the next big thing in our fastest growing Davao Region is the Metropolitan Davao Development Authority.

De Davao University, and Matina Aplaya Elementary School. Currently, two hubs are being utilized as vaccination sites namely Apolinario Mabini Elementary School and Magallanes Elementary

School. Villafuerte said that the city will not open the other sites until all the vaccinees under Priority Group A (frontline healthcare and non-healthcare workers) are completed.

sion, said they responded to sightings of the BIFF and reports that Mohaimen Animbang alias Commander Karialan was planning to launch an attack. The military used mortars, howitzers and tanks resulting in the closure of the road between Datu Saudi Ampatuan and Datu Piang town for over three hours. Reports said the conflict was triggered by the construction of a building for the Joint

Peace and Security Team (JPST), a peacekeeping force tasked to provide security to residents inside the six Moro Islamic Liberation Front camps recognized by the government. The JPST comprises decommissioned MILF fighters, the military and Philippine National Police. Abu Jehad, spokesperson of the BIFF under Karialan said his commander was enraged by the installation of the

JPST inside the lot owned by the rebel leader’s family. “We wanted them out, they have not communicated nor coordinated properly to install facility inside their nemesis’ house. And what’s worst, we were tagged as terrorists in our own home lot,” Jehad said. He admitted they lost three of their comrades during the encounter. (Ferdinandh Cabrera/ MindaNews)

detected in the country include the B.1.1.7 variant originally found in the United Kingdom, the B.1.351 variant identified in South Africa, and the P.1 variant identified in Brazil. (PNA)

CLUB AEON REDEFINING THE RESIDENTIAL RECREATIONAL AMENITY

AS THE PROVERB GOES, “All good things come to those who wait.” and with the completion and turnover of the residential floors of Aeon Towers, unit owners of Durianburg’s most anticipated premier condominium development have something to smile about. I recently had the chance to take a tour around Aeon Towers on the invitation of Aeon Luxe Properties’ Vice President, Sales & Marketing Almira “Mara” Mariano. Walking around the finished residential component of the landmark mixed-use development, I was impressed with the level of detailing and finish of the residential units that are ready for turn over. More impressive however are the facilities and amenities of the tower. From its residential lobby, to the highspeed elevators, the smart home system, and fresh air exchange, everything at Aeon Tower is made to impress. And

Fully-furnished studio unit at Aeon Towers.

the most impressive space of Aeon Tower has to be its 6th floor amenity area called Club Aeon. Dubbed as the beating heart of all Aeon developments which integrates a broad range of premium amenities in one convenient facility, Club Aeon is much more than a typical clubhouse that promotes a residential lifestyle experience with a fresh and different perspective. Feeling more like an exclusive members-club rather than just any common amenity space of a residential condominium, Club Aeon is automatically rewarded to homeowners of either Aeon Towers, Aeon Bleu and other future developments of Aeon Luxe Properties. “What’s unique about Club Aeon is that every homeowner can also access the amenities from its neighboring

to cater the first batch of the residents who are now enjoying their turned-over units” added Mara. Club Aeon at Aeon Towers hosts a spacious lounging area were residents and their guests can relax in comfort. It also has co-working spaces where residents can have their small meetings while enjoying a delicious snack served with their favorite drink from the bar, an exclusive led-lit swimming pool, a fitness gym and kid’s playroom which will soon open after the limitations of the pandemic are lifted. Club Aeon also has a meeting room and a spacious events hall open for residents to lease for celebrations or corporate functions. “What homeowners of Aeon developments are now looking forward to are the exciting amenities which they can soon

also enjoy in the live-workplay community at Aeon Bleu, our future development.” said Mara. “The development boasts of its six themed pool, the very first in Southern Philippines, which comes as a bonus that completes a resident’s condo living experience aside from master-planned, world-class indoor and outdoor facilities.” Mara also revealed Club Aeon’s current program which offers Dabawenyos, and travelers, a chance to experience the Aeon Luxe and Club Aeon lifestyle with daily, weekly and monthly accommodation in some of the fully furnished units at Aeon Towers through the Aeon Rental Management Program.

oxers Nesthy Petecio and Carlo Paalam will join national teammates Felix Eumir Marcial and Irish Magno to the Tokyo Olympic Games in July, Association of Boxing Alliances in the Philippines (ABAP) secretary-general Ed Picson announced Friday afternoon. “The International Olympic Committee Boxing Task Force has sent to the Philippine Olympic Committee confirmation notices of qualification to the Tokyo Olympics of 4 Filipino boxers,” Picson said. While Marcial and Magno booked tickets to Tokyo through the Asia-Oceania Olympic boxing qualifiers

in Amman, Jordan in March 2020, Paalam and Petecio, both gold medalists in the 30th Southeast Asian Games in 2019, advanced “by virtue of their highest standings in their respective weight categories (in the Olympic qualifying rankings),” according to the executive representing the sport’s national governing body.

ormer ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) veteran Jason Brickman will lead Meralco's charge in the Philippine Basketball Association's (PBA) 3x3 league. Team manager Paolo Trillo confirmed the development on Friday. "We’re looking forward to seeing his brand of basketball up close," Trillo said. Brickman played for Mono Vampire and Alab Pilipinas in the ABL as the teams' primary point guard. Before those stints, he played in Russia and Germa-

ny.

The IOC-BTF, which took over the Olympic boxing preparations following the suspension of the International Boxing Association in 2019 due to governance issues, had earlier scrapped the world Olympic qualifying competition set in Paris, in June due to the resurgence of COVID-19 cases in Europe. In the tournament’s place, the IOC-BTF announced in a virtual meeting last month that the Olympic qualifying ratings would be used to decide the remaining slots to the Tokyo Summer Games. Paalam, a gold medalist in 30th SEA Games light flyweight division, is ranked No. 12 in the men’s flyweight division rankings while Petecio, a 2019

Brickman named to Meralco’s 3x3 team

In college, the Long Island-Brooklyn alumnus was among the US NCAA's top point guards during his time. "He’s a veteran playmaker who has proven himself internationally and we’re excited to have him on board," Trillo added. The Fil-American playmaker initially declared for the PBA's 5-on-5 draft this year, but he was pulled out from the final list of aspirants after failing to secure the necessary documents to be cleared.

Still, Brickman would get to taste some PBA action this season as the Bolts signed him to a 3x3 deal. The league is planning to hold its inaugural 3x3 conference in concurrence with the first conference of the 5-on-5 season, the Philippine Cup. According to PBA 3x3 chairman Dickie Bachmann, games will be played every Friday and Saturday before the scheduled 5-on-5 games. The league is eyeing a closed circuit Philippine Cup at the Ynares Center in Antipolo. (PNA)

world boxing championship gold medalist, is No. 5 in the women’s featherweight ratings. The boxers moved up to No. 1 in their respective weight classes since the boxers ranked above them have already qualified to the quadrennial global sports showcase. Marcial, who topped his weight class in the Olympic qualifiers, will be battling in the men’s middleweight division while Magno scraped through to Tokyo in winning a box-off in women’s flyweight class. ABAP president Ricky Vargas was elated over the development, saying: “Let us all come together and focus on the challenges ahead not only

of our boxers but all Filipino athletes. Now more than ever they need us to stand firmly behind them.” Petecio, Magno and Paalam are now with the national boxing team that left last week to train in Thailand while Marcial left for the US in October and is now training in Los Angeles with noted American ring guru Freddie Roach after signing a 4-year pro contract with MP Promotions owned by Manny Pacquiao in July 2020. ABAP, however, has invited Marcial, a 3-time SEA Games gold medalist, to join the Thailand training camp so he can re-acquaint himself with the nuances of the amateur game.

Las Vegas-based MP chief Sean Gibbons, however, said he preferred the boxer to remain in the US for workouts while preparing him for his second pro fight next month. The Philippines doubled its representatives to the Olympics after light flyweight Roger Ladon and flyweight Charlee Suarez saw action at the Rio Olympic Games held five years ago. Filipino fighters have accounted for two of the three silver medals the country has won in the Olympics from featherweight Anthony Villanueva and light flyweight Mansueto “Onyok” Velasco in the 1964 Tokyo and 1996 Atlanta editions, respectively, of the Summer Games.

After failing to qualify for the PBA Draft, ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) veteran Jason Brickman will lead Meralco’s charge in the 3x3 league.

FAST TRACKING PSC approves SEAG lineup despite pending IATF ok

he Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) has already approved the line-up of Southeast Asian Games (SEAG) bound sports, even while they await the approval of the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) on the resumption of training. PSC Commissioner Ramon Fernandez and 31st SEAG Chef de Mission said the PSC board has decided to take this action to fast track preparations for the country’s defense of the overall crown, “we will still await the IATF’s approval to formally resume, but we hope to have everything in place so we can immediately go once we get the green light.” Athletes of SEAG bound sports and the rest of the national team can expect to receive allowances retroactive to February, despite SEAG training still projected to start mid-April. An advisory to national sports associations has already been issued for the immediate submission of necessary documents, as part of the government agency’s regular accounting and auditing rules. Athletes in Olympic-bound sports were first to receive their allowances which were released this week. Their allowances continued through January, which is evaluation season, since

training continued for them. More than 50 athletes underwent bubble training in the first quarter, as part of their preparations for the quadrennial in Tokyo. “It took a while to go through the reassessment of our more than 1,300 strong national team. We have to also follow requirements and policies since we are using government funds, but it is now done and subsequent processes have been started,” explained PSC Chairman William Ramirez. At the start of the year, the national team undergoes reevaluation as the year’s national team roster is established. Per policy, allowances are subsequently cut, but the agency retained the allowances of Olympic-bound sports since they continued their training. The PSC also continued to support SEAG and Olympic preparations of different sports, despite heavy budget cuts. Almost P4 Million was ap-
