Possible surge after elections monitored: Covid-19 Task Force

espite the low number of Covid-19 cases in Davao City and a positivity rate far from the acceptable 5 percent, the Davao City Covid-19 Task Force is still monitoring for a possible surge in cases after the May 9 local and national elections. Davao City Covid-19 Task Force Spokesperson Dr. Michelle Schlosser reported that as of May 20, 2022 the city has recorded four cases of Covid-19. “Naa ta’y four cases as of May 20 but still kung basehan nato ang positivity rate still one percent below sa acceptable rate of the positivity rate na five percent. We are still bracing ourselves kay from May 9 naa ta’y gina-anticipate na surge and kinahanglan maghulat ta at least 14 days or two weeks. We are monitoring our cases, bracing ourselves ta. We are always wishing sa Covid-19 Task Force and the City Health Office (CHO) na unta dili mahitabo ang atong gikahadlukan nga magkaroon ug surge after the election,” Schlosser said on Friday. Adding to the concern is the recent detection of the Omicron subvariant BA.2.12.1, which has entered the Philippines after it was detected in 14 individuals - 11 foreign tourists, two Metro Manila residents, and one resident of Puerto Princesa City in Palawan. Schlosser said it’s a matter of time before the said subvariant will enter Davao City wherein there are no longer interlocal and interzonal restrictions and traveling in Davao City is already allowed.

“Atoang i-remind ang mga katawhan wala na tay restrictions interlocal and interzonal and travels are all permitted and we will never know kung ga-travel ang subvariant and what we can do as the moment is mag-protekta ta sa atoang sarili and in order for us to protect ourselves, we have to wear our face masks all the time, especially sa mga crowded areas. Pero since dili man nato makit-an ang atong kalaban we have to protect ourselves from the severity of the disease if in case we get the virus at least dili ta muabot sa point na ikamatay nato ang Covid-19. That is the very essence of receiving or having a vaccine,” she said. Meanwhile, Shclosser reported that on May 19, 2022 the city recorded only one case of Covid-19, however, the patient, who was an unvaccinated senior citizen, died. “For a long time wala na ta’y kaayo natala na deaths but on May 19 we have a case, one case pero death pud siya, a senior citizen and unfortunately wala siya nabakunahan. Based on history wala gyud siya ka receive ug vaccine. Maka-sad kay mao ni ang atong gustong iwasan,” she said. Schlosser added that this is the reason why the city government of Davao is pushing for the vaccination of the vulnerable sector including senior citizens. “Kay kasagaran sa ilaha pag dili bakunado succumb to death. Sila tong dali maigo and kung maigo man kay dako ang tsansa na ma-high

ATTY. CINDY ILAGAN-CAYCO IBP DAVAO CORNER

Dear IBP,

Good pm po Attorney. May Karapatan pa ba ang Papa ko sa lupang ibinenta ng Lola ko ng palihim. Kasi nung chineck naming sa assessors nakapangalan pa sa kanya, pero sinabi po na may deed of sale na ang nakabili nito. Diba ba po pag may deed of sale dapat nakapangalan na sa kanya ang lupa? Salamat po Dear Ma’am,

Due to the lack of specific details, I would have to qualify my answer to your questions. If the title of the property is under the name of your grandmother, then your father has no right over the property that was sold anymore. While

your father as a child of your grandmother is a compulsory heir, the fact of inheriting is only an inchoate right while your grandmother is alive. Hence, your grandmother has the right to sell the property without the consent of your father, because as the owner she has the right to enjoy and dispose of a thing, without other limitations than those established by law. However, it will be a different story if the property is owned by your father. If the property is under the name of your father, then by all means he can avail of the remedies under the law to vindicate his rights. Since according to you, the property was sold by your grandmother secretly, therefore without his consent, your

father can file an action to nullify the deed of sale that was executed. An action for annulment of sale is filed where consent is vitiated by lack of legal capacity of one of the contracting parties, or by mistake, violence, intimidation, undue influence or fraud. By its very nature, annulment contemplates a contract which is voidable, that is, valid until annulled. Annullable contracts that have been annulled are the confer no right and produce no legal effect. Furthermore, If the title in under the name of your father and that the sale transaction happened without his consent, then it is highly probable that a document was forged to facilitate the sale. Take note that an action to annul a deed of sale

prescribes after four (4) years from discovery. You should first check with the Registry of Deeds to make sure that the title has not been transferred yet. If the title has already been transferred to the name of the buyer, then the action that should be filed is Reconveyance of Property. An action for reconveyance, on the other hand, is a legal and equitable remedy granted to the rightful owner of land which has been wrongfully or erroneously registered in the name of another for the purpose of compelling the latter to transfer or reconvey the land to the rightful and lawful owner, or to the party with superior right over it, without prejudice to innocent purchasers in good faith.

While the Deed of Sale is a legal instrument proving the sale transaction, it will not automatically transfer the title to the name of the buyer. You still have to go through a process before the title under the name of the seller will be cancelled and consequently a new one will be issued under the name of the buyer. With that being said, it is possible that while a sale transaction indeed happened, the party (this could be the buyer or the seller) did not process the registration of the sale just yet. We hope that we are able to answer your questions and help you. We wish that you will be able to resolve your problem as peaceful as possible, as this involves family members. Good luck!

HENRYLITO D. TACIO THINK ON THESE!

WIDESPREAD FLOODING: NOT CAUSED BY DEFORESTATION? “Floods are among the most destructive calamities man has to cope with.” The statement comes from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). A really big flood can result in millions, even billions of pesos of damages to road and bridges, buildings and other economic infrastructure, in the loss of agricultural crops and livestock, loss of productivity in industry, commerce and trade – not to mention the incalculable loss of human life. More often than not, people blame the destruction of forests when rains lead to severe flooding. But former United Nations official Patrick Durst begged to disagree with this conventional wisdom. Durst was then the regional forestry officer of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization in Bangkok, Thailand. In a conversation, he said there is no scientific evidence to link major, large-scale floods to the loss of forests. “Government officials, aid groups and the media are often quick to blame flooding on deforestation caused by small farmers and tree cutters,” he

said. Such belief in the past, he pointed out, led some governments to force poor farmers from their lands and away from forests while doing nothing to prevent future flooding. “Such actions are totally misguided,” he said. Now, this is getting interesting. Are floods caused by nature or by human activities like logging and farming? That’s a tough question to answer if it is going to be asked in a beauty pageant question and answer segment. The FAO came up with a book that tries to separate fact from fiction on issues related to forests and water. Forests and Floods: Drowning in Fiction or Thriving on Facts? also dispels some of the commonly held misconceptions about the role of forests in flood mitigation. “Clearly, floods are caused by nature; but in some cases, they are exacerbated by human activities,” Durst said. “The floods blamed on deforestation almost always occur after prolonged rains, which saturate the soil, including forest soil, so that it can no longer absorb more water,” explained the 30-page FAO publication. “Rain then has nowhere to go but into

rivers where it fills them to overflowing.” At its root, the flood equation is pretty simple: If a river cannot handle the load of water it’s required to carry, it must rise. With enough water, it must rise above its banks and flood. The faster water runs from the watershed into the river, the higher a flood will be. Thus, anything that increases runoff speed – like excessive pavement or ditching of farmland – will contribute to floods. Some experts believe that economic and human losses from floods have increased over the years mainly because more people live and work in areas where floods are common. “People need to stop blaming floods on those who live and work in and around forests,” said Pal Singh of the World Agroforestry Center. Trees and forests may partly play a role in environmental protection. “Planting trees and protecting forests can have many environmental benefits, but preventing large scale floods is not one of them,” explained David Kaimowitz, who was then the director-general of the Center for International Forestry Research when he said those words.

“If deforestation was causing floods, you would expect a rise in major flood events paralleling the rise in deforestation, but that is not the case,” he said. “The frequency of major flooding events has remained the same over the last 120 years going back to the days when lush forests were abundant.” Large-scale floods that happened in the Chiang Mai valley in northern Thailand are well-documented for events in 1918-1920 and again in 1953. “These floods all occurred when lush forests were still abundant in Thailand,” the FAO report said. The conventional view for 100 years has been that forests prevent floods by acting as a giant sponge. According to this theory, developed by European foresters at the end of the 19th century, the complex of forest soil, roots and litter acts as a giant sponge, soaking up water during rainy spells and releasing it evenly during dry periods, when the water is most needed. When major floods do occur, it is most often towards the end of the rainy season, when heavy rain falls and soils are already saturated and incapable of soaking up additional water, the FAO report noted.

“The reality is far more complex,” said Dr. He Changchui, former FAO regional representative for Asia and the Pacific. “Although forested watersheds are exceptionally stable hydrological systems, the complexity of environmental factors should cause us to refrain from overselling the virtues of forests and from relying on simple solutions.” After all, there can be a political interest in leaving the conventional wisdom about forests and floods unchallenged, the report points out. Governments can respond to floods with logging bans and give the appearance to the public they are taking decisive steps to stop flooding. The practical effect of such policies is to force poor farmers - who are routinely portrayed as major perpetrators of illegal logging - to abandon their lands. “While the ability of forests to prevent catastrophic floods is limited, watershed management should definitely not be abandoned,” the FAO publication urged. “Forests provide a variety of environmental services, which need to be protected and nurtured for the benefit of today and tomorrow’s upland and lowland populations.”

Difficult to stop rising commodity prices: DTI

he Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said it couldn’t keep the prices of some commodities low because cost of raw materials have increased.

“Hindi na natin mapigilan na hindi magalaw, hindi magalaw iyong presyo dahil sa nagtataas na presyo ng raw materials naman na ginagamit nila, major ingredients nila sa paggawa,” Trade Undersecretary Ruth Castelo said in a televised briefing. (We cannot stop the price from moving because the price of raw materials also increased. These are

the products’ major ingredients.) The agency is however constantly monitoring the price movement of some goods, after recently approving the price hike of some commodities. Castelo said only the price of 82 basic necessities and prime commodities in the suggested retail price (SRP) bulletin had an in-

crease out of their 212 stock keeping units (SKUs). DTI released a new SRP list last week, showing the new set of minimum increase for some products. “Lahat ng mga supermarkets and groceries ay covered nito kasi hanggang tier 2 level tayo ng supply chain nagmo-monitor. So dito sa mga bilihan na ito, sigurado tayo na sumusunod sa suggested retail price natin ang mga retailers,” noted Castelo (All supermarkets and groceries are covered by this because we are monitoring

ome 250 work opportunities, including 150 for overseas work, were made available Friday for jobseekers in Barangay Buhangin here, the city’s Public Employment Service Office (PESO) said. “In this particular event, our partners offered 250 job vacancies – 150 for overseas and an-

other 100 for local employment,” said PESO-Davao officer-in-charge Lilibeth Pantinople in an interview. The event is the fourth barangay job fair stint this year, she said, adding that some 300 jobseekers went to check the available opportunities. Earlier, PESO-Davao

announced it will launch a regular and scheduled job fair every other Friday at an open-area gymnasium in a selected barangay. “The mayor wants us to bring employment opportunities in far-flung areas,” Pantinople said. PESO-Davao, she said, is conducting face-to-face job fairs for those who do

until the 2nd level of the supply chain. We are sure that they are following the SRP in these establishments.) Aside from monitoring the SRP in groceries and establishments, she said her agency is making sure that the price of goods will be maintained, as they also monitor the supply of retail and manufacturing given the demand. Castelo added that they cannot assure the public that SRP will be followed in retail stores because their “supply chain mechanism is different.”

Fintech bids support for PH startups, MSMEs

inancial technology firm Xendit bids to further help small businesses and startups in the Philippines after raising an additional USD300-million funding. In a virtual briefing on Friday, Xendit Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Managing Director for Philippine operations Yang Yang Zhang said their latest capital boost, which came from several investors like Accel, Tiger Global, and Kleiner Perkins, brought to USD538 million the capital they have raised so far. She said they want to continue supporting startups and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) just like how they got the same boost a few years back. “(We intend to) invest directly in startups…. We want to put where our mouth is,” she said. The company started operations in Indonesia but Zhang said they con-

sider the Philippines their home, thus, the support to domestic enterprises. Zhang said they also want to empower women by providing technological education, and non-profit organizations by providing subsidies. “As a woman who has spent her entire career in male-dominated tech industries, I am deeply invested in lowering the barriers to entry for Filipino women interested in technology. Education has always been the fastest way to level the playing field, and I’m so happy that Xendit will be investing directly into making tech education and career training more accessible for Filipinas everywhere,” she said. She explained that optimism in their domestic operations is due in part to growth opportunities for digital transfers and the strong policy support by the government to the sector.

Agri dept: P30B-P40B needed to ensure sufficient rice supply BIR: Megaworld ‘will now comply’ with RDO audit

he Bureau of Internal Revenue on Friday said the now suspended closure order against Megaworld Corp stemmed from its initial refusal to comply with an audit following a dispute on jurisdiction over several properties. Failure to comply with the audit is a ground for closure, BIR Regional Director Eduardo Pagulayan Jr said in a statement. The investigation involves verification of taxes on One-Time Transactions (ONETT) on the sale or transfer of properties by Megaworld, the BIR said. Pagulayan said BIR Revenue Region No. 8B - South NCR has jurisdiction over such enforcement activity. Megaworld is a large taxpayer under the jurisdiction of the Large Taxpayer Service of the BIR National Office. But the ONETT falls under the jurisdiction of the BIR Regional Office “where the property is located,” the tax bureau said. “The said properties being subjected to investigations are located within the premises of Taguig City, which clearly falls within the jurisdiction of the said BIR Regional Office and not with the Large Taxpayer

Service,” the BIR said. “At first instance, Megaworld refused to comply with the BIR audit. The BIR Regional Office, however, found that the said corporation failed in its compliance and reportorial requirements under the Tax Code,” it said. On Wednesday, the BIR said it would issue a closure order to Megaworld Corp. The closure order has since been suspended. “It was resolved that Megaworld will now comply with the audit. Hence, closure was set aside. Now, the investigation is ongoing,” the BIR said. Megaworld earlier said it had a “disagreement” with the BIR regarding jurisdiction but it has since been clarified. It also said it has no pending unpaid liabilities and has vowed to cooperate with the tax authorities. House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Joey Salceda on Friday urged the BIR the further explain the matter since the “bizarre” event undermines the stability of the country’s tax institution and financial market since Megaworld is a listed company under the Philippine Stock Exchange.

Undersecretary Fermin Adriano reiterated Agriculture Secretary William Dar’s warning that a food crisis might hit the country. On Wednesday, Dar said, citing experts, that there is a looming food crisis brought by increases in the prices of farm inputs during the second semester of 2022, aggravated by the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the

economy, rising fuel prices, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. “Ang food crisis maaaring maramdaman towards the end of the year,” Adriano said. (The food crisis might be felt towards the end of the year.) “Nagbibigay kami ng warning sa next administration, hindi natin alam kung sasapat ang supply

ng bigas sa second half ng taon… Kapag hindi tayo nagbigay ng ayuda sa mga magsasaka para sa fertilizer, baka magkaproblema,” the DA official said. (We are giving a warning to the next administration, we do not know if the supply of rice in the second half of the year would be enough… If we do not give aid to farmers for fertilizer there might be a problem.) With this, Adriano said that there might be a contraction of 1.1 million metric tons in palay or paddy rice output. To avert this, he said “kailangan ng P30 billion to P40 billion na pondo para matiyak na magiging sapat ang supply ng bigas sa bansa.”

otorists shall expect mixed movements in the pump prices of petroleum products in the coming week, according to oil industry sources. In its fuel forecast for the May 24 to 30 trading week, Unioil Petroleum Philippines said the prices per liter of diesel may roll back by P2.00 to P2.20.

However, gasoline prices may increase by P3.80 to P4.00 per liter. Likewise, an oil industry source told GMA News Online that diesel prices may be slashed by P2.40 to P2.70 per liter while gasoline prices may be hiked by P4.00 to P4.30 per liter. Oil companies usually announce price adjust-

ments every Monday to be implemented on the following day. Effective Tuesday, May 17, fuel firms implemented a reduction in domestic oil prices. Oil companies slashed gasoline by P0.40 per liter and diesel by P3.00 to P3.10 per liter. Data from the Department of Energy’s oil price monitoring shows that

he incoming administration of presumptive president Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. needs to shell out P30 billion to P40 billion to avert an impending supply shortage of rice in the second half of the year due to the increasing prices of fertilizer, a top official of the Department of Agriculture (DA) said Saturday.

(Around P30 billion to P40 billion of funding is needed to ensure that the supply of rice in the country would be sufficient.) Adriano said the DA is pushing for the production of more seeds to be given for free to farmers by the agency. Meanwhile, he said that food supply in poor countries would be the most affected due to the disruption triggered by the Russia-Ukraine war. “Pinag-uusapan ng malalaking lider ng mga bansa na hindi lang ito food crisis kundi food catastrophe,” Adriano said. (World leaders are discussing that this is not only a looming food crisis but a food catastrophe.)

gasoline prices range from P69.55 to P81.95 per liter and diesel prices range between P73.35 and P80.61 per liter in Quezon City, the largest city in the country’s economic capital National Capital Region. Year-to-date adjustments stand at a net increase of P21.60 per liter for gasoline and P31.40 per liter for diesel.

Hidilyn survives tough Thai challenge en route to SEAG gold

t didn’t turn out easy breezy for Olympic champion Hidilyn Diaz in the 31st Southeast Asian Games in Vietnam.

On Friday, Diaz clinched the gold medal in the women’s 55kg category as she tallied a total of 206 kg’ Her total lift was 3kg ahead of second-running Sanikun Tanasan of Thailand who gave er a tough fight in the Hanoi Games. The pride of Zamboanga City said this feat signaled her intention to defend her Olympic championship. “My journey towards Paris (Olympics) starts here, so this SEA Games gold is very important for me,” Diaz, 30, said. “Napaka-meaningful nito (SEAG). After winning the gold medal, bumalik pa din ako, nakapag-deliver ng gold medal for the Philippines. Masaya ako na nandito ako ulit ako sa SEA Games, na i-represent ang Pilipinas.” It was not a walk in the park for the Filipina sports icon as she was challenged by Tanasan, the Rio Olympics gold medalist, at the start of the competition.

Long, bumpy road to milestone Olympic gold ‘worth it’ for Hidilyn Diaz Tanasan scored a point higher than Diaz after the snatch when she successfully lifted 93kg. Diaz attempted to surpass it but failed to lift 94kg in her third try. Asian Games: Hidilyn Diaz wins first gold for Philippines In the clean and jerk, Tanasan initially lifted 104kg and 110kg to temporarily lead the competition with 203 kg. But Diaz flexed her muscle to pull away from the pack as she carried 114kg just in her first attempt to quickly steal the upper hand and eventually the gold. Tanasan tried to carry the same weight in her final attempt but to no avail. “We studied our opponent, we know she’s strong in the snatch, but not so much in the clean and jerk. But of course, we cannot

Luong Thai Linh, EPA-EFE downplay the competition. I always do my best,” said Diaz, adding that it was a struggle training for the SEA Games after her busy schedule as a result of her triumph at the Tokyo Olympics. “I was able to drop my weight from 61 to 55, that is why I’m so grateful with Team HD to reach this

performance again,” added Diaz, who plans to take part at the World Championships and the Asian Games, before the Paris Olympics. Diaz attempted to lift 118kg and 121kg in her last two tries in the clean and jerk but failed to do so. Indonesia’s Natasya Beteyob

took the bronze for her 188kg total score. Diaz claimed her first SEA Games gold in the 2019 edition in the Philippines. Two years later, she made history by ending the almost century gold drought of the country in the Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan.
