Lapanday, ascribed in nar ratives as the residence of Syrian-Lebanese Juan Awad (a Maronite Christian who got a 1,024-hectare land lease from the Spanish colo nial state) was first known as the home of Davao’s first ab aca plantation. Such a claim, though, has since been dis puted.Abaca cultivation, it seems, was started early on by the Bagobos, and Santa Cruz was its epicenter. Inter estingly, Awad also owned a flourishing farm there. When the Japanese migrants work ing as laborers completed their labor in Baguio were allowed to toil in hemp plan tations, the first batch of re cruits, arriving in 1903, was sent to Awad’s agricultural estate in that area. The cultivation of abaca on plantation-sized farms started in earnest in the last decade of Spanish rule. Jesuit priest Fr. Saturnino Urios, in his letter to the Mission Su perior dated April 30, 1894, described Santa Cruz, a pueb lo (town), as developed, but the sprawling hemp farms, as would be the case in later decades, were experiencing manpower shortfall: ‘…Santa Cruz… has very good roads that are much frequented, for the Chinese from there and from Davao, and other traders… These days, many sacks of cacao are exported, selling at fabulous prices in the plaza… There is more abaca than can be pro cessed by the day laborers here. What a pity! Since 1891 they have become interested in plantations to exploit this fiber. They have since plant ed it, but now they face the problem of lack of workers.’ Fr. Urios’ account puts into context that (i) Awad, as the ‘father of hemp cultivation’ in Davao, is the first planter to employ Japanese labor; (ii) the cultivation of plantations started in Davao del Sur; (iii) Santa Cruz, the oldest town south of Davao, hosted the biggest abaca estates when several nearby localities were still under its control; (iv) the concept of plantation started earlier than 1893, the year it was supposedly in troduced; and (v) the town accommodated chiefly Syr ian-Lebanese, Spanish, and American-owned abaca plan tations.Beyond plantations, Santa Cruz, at the turn of the 20th century after the Spaniards left, became the center of schism. Some Catholic lay leaders who claimed to have been coerced into conver sion, revolted by destroying religious icons and desecrat ing church ornaments. The uprising was later calmed down by the Americans. Lat er, the first Protestant mis sion school shepherded by Rev. Franklin Black was es tablished in barangay Melilla. Santa Cruz’s plantation economy flourished even more during the first decade of American occupation. US military servicemen who completed their tour of duty or were retired, resigned, or discharged from the service opened farms in the area. With their initial success es, more forestlands were opened southwest of the dis trict.One of the notable Ameri can planters in town was Wil liam H. Gohn, originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a sergeant with the US 17th In fantry. After his discharge in 1904, he settled in Santa Cruz and launched his abaca ven ture. Encouraged by his ini tial agricultural successes, he worked together with some friends to organize Keller & GohnOrganizedCompany. in 1906, the company managed a 126-hectare hemp planta tion, the first of its kind in Davao to bve irrigated. It sourced its water from the Lobo River. Aside from Gohn, the enterprise listed as its incorporators, namely R.C. Baldwin and F.L. Keller. Initially, the residents showed skepticism towards the cultivation of abaca, say ing the soil in the area was not suitable for the crop. But the trailblazers, after intro ducing irrigation, proved the detractors wrong. Starting with an investment of P600, they cleared the land and planted it with 50,000 hills of hemp. To keep the cultivation manageable, they only tilled a parcel of land that could

Dear Sender, If your brother intends to impugn the legitimacy of the child, he must prove the grounds found in Art. 166 of the Family Code, which provides that the Legiti macy of a child may be im pugned only on the follow ing grounds, (1) That it was physically impossible for the husband to have sexual inter course with his wife within the first 120 days of the 300 days which immediately pre ceded the birth of the child because of, (a) the physical incapacity of the husband to have sexual intercourse with his wife; (b) the fact that the husband and wife were liv ing separately in such a way that sexual intercourse was not possible; or (c) serious illness of the husband, which absolutely prevented sexu al intercourse; (2) That it is proved that for biological or other scientific reasons, the child could not have been that of the husband, except in the instance provided in the second paragraph of Article 164; or (3) That in case of children conceived through artificial insemination, the written authorization or rat ification of either parent was obtained through mistake, fraud, violence, intimidation, or undue influence. Only the husband (or his heirs in exceptional circum stances) that can impugn the legitimacy of the child. In the case of Liyao Jr. v. Tanho ti-Liyao , the Supreme court said that, Impugning the le gitimacy of the child is strict ly a personal right of the hus band, or in exceptional cases, his heirs for the simple rea son that he is the one direct ly confronted with the scan dal and ridicule which the infidelity of his wife produc es and he should be the one to decide whether to conceal that infidelity or expose it in view of the moral and eco nomic interest involved.

Note that the action for impugning the legitimacy of the child shall be brought within one year from the knowledge of the birth or its recording in the civil reg ister, if the husband or, in a proper case, any of his heirs, should reside in the city or municipality where the birth took place or was recorded. If the husband or, in his default, all of his heirs do not reside at the place of birth as defined in the first paragraph or where it was recorded, the period shall be two years if they should reside in the Philippines; and three years if abroad. If the birth of the child has been concealed from or was unknown to the husband or his heirs, the period shall be counted from the discovery or knowledge of the birth of the child or of the fact of reg istration of said birth, which ever is Underearlier.exceptional cir cumstances, the heirs of the husband may impugn the filiation of the child due to the following grounds stat ed in Art. 171 of the Family Code, which provides that: (1) If the husband should die before the expiration of the period fixed for bringing his action; (2) If he should die after the filing of the complaint without having desisted therefrom; or (3) If the child was born after the death of the husband. I hope we were able to answer your questions and we were able to enlighten you with the steps that you have to take.

The students of Manicani in Eastern Samar are this year’s recipients of Nickel Asia’s ‘Lapis at Papel’ Personal Social Responsibility (PSR) program

NAC’s PSR program was initiated some years back by employees from its head office at the NAC Tower in BGC in Taguig, who had no easy access to the communities that NAC serves.The PSR now provides the opportunity for the head office employees to have a social service activi ty they can participate in as a civicNAC’sduty.“Lapis at Papel” initiative has been running for 3 years and this year, as physical classes resume af ter suspensions due to the pandemic, NAC employees have chosen the students and teachers of Manicani as the program’s benefi ciaries.Maria Clariza Riveral, Principal of Manicani’s Ju nior High School, expresses her appreciation that the students of Manicani are chosen as the program’s recipients, calling the gifts of school supplies as “bless ings”.All students in Manicani each receives pads of pa pers, pens and pencils, and notebooks. The younger kids from the daycare cen ters and the pre-elementa ry students receive crayons and coloring books, also pads of writing papers and jumbo pencils, erasers and sharpeners, plus water tumblers.Allan Bandoy, Jr., Com Rel head for HMC-MNP, says study shows that one of the reasons students get discouraged to do good in school is the challenge of not having enough learn ing materials, particularly “lapis at papel’ or pens and papers and notebooks. “We are assured that the students and their teachers appreciate the gifts and are grateful to the NAC employees and all the donors,” he says.

The International Jour nal of Development Re search defines Personal Social Responsibility pro gram (PSR) as “a novel so cio-economic model, based on a strategic decision by an individual to undertake an obligation to society in an organized framework”.

Obiena beats Duplantis

I know that there have been plenty of talks about our Gilas, coach Chot Reyes and that of his blunder statement about Lebanon. I was in Panabo City a few years back and in my discus sion with uncle Pol Diamante, he warned me not to say some words I uttered because “words are powerful”. That struck me. From that day on, I’ve been very careful. “Words are powerful”.

Let me go straight to the point now.To serve as coach of the coun try’s national basketball team has an extreme demand that it should be focused, extremely focused, to be with just only one team.

If the SBP picks coach Ronel, a dutiful assistant coach of the late great mentor Adriano “Bong” Go, believe me, a loss to Lebanon would never happen because Ronel’s brain has been working day and night to score a victory and will utter only one word, win! * * Comments* are welcome by sending an email to mpb_sports@ yahoo.com.

Half-Pinoy booter leads LaLiga champ Real MadridArmand “Mondo” Duplantis vowed that any danger of becoming com placent would be shelved after he suffered a rare defeat at Friday’s Diamond Leaguemeet in Brussels. Duplantis failed three times at 5.91 metres, fall ing to the mat on the third botched effort with a gaping mouth in stunned disbelief. Ernest John Obiena of the Philippines passed at the same height on the third time of asking, which left the Filipino also shak ing his head in disbelief, so dominant has Duplantis been in his event. It was the first defeat of a sparkling season that has seen the 22-year-old USborn Swede win 17 com petitions, 14 achieved with vaults over the six-metre barrier. Those victories have seen Duplantis seal world indoor gold in Belgrade in March and world outdoor honors in Oregon in July. Both were achieved with world record vaults, of 6.20 and 6.21m respectively. “I did a lot of things poorly technically,” said Duplantis, a meticulous perfectionist in a notori ously ofproach,terydisciplinetechnically-testingthatneedsmasoftherunwayapproperhandlingthepoleandcomplete confidence in the exacting projection upwards and over the bar.

Of course, no basketball lov ing Pinoy would not know what happened after the Gilas played against Lebanon. “Words are powerful”, isn’t it coach Chot?

Defending champion Real Madrid shares the top of the LaLiga Santander standings with Real Betis at nine points each, both winners in their first three matches. They will clash at 10:15 p.m. Saturday (Phil ippineRealtime).Madrid made some impressive sum mer signings – Aurélien Tchouameni and Antonio Rüdiger – to bolster its de fense in the Spanish foot ballDavidleague.Alaba, born to a Nigerian father and Fil ipino mother in Vienna, Austria, was instrumen tal in Real Madrid’s first victory this season, with his free kick in the 75th minute earning them a 2-1 comeback victory against Almería on August 15. “I’m very happy to win this game. That’s the only important thing, that’s why we are here, to be successful at the end of the day. Ahead of the free kick, I felt good and the team gave me the confidence to take it,” the 30-year-old Alaba said. Real Madrid lured Ala ba from Bayern Munich in the German league Bunde sliga and signed him to a five-year contract in May lastAlaba’syear. mother, Gina, was a nurse and a for mer beauty queen in the Philippines, while his fa ther, George, is a Nigerian prince who went to Vien na to study Economics and was the first black guard soldier in the Austrian Army.Alaba is the third play er with Filipino roots to play for Real Madrid after Spanish Eduardo Teus, who was born in Manila in 1896, and France goal keeper Alphonse Areola, whose parents are both from the Philippines, in the 2019-2020 season. Paulino Alcantara, also born in 1896 in Concep cion, Iloilo to a Spanish military officer and an Ilongga mother, played for another Spanish club, Bar celona.Bayern talent scout Werner Kern once de scribed Alaba as an “ex ceptional talent with an excellent attitude” and “can go very far.”

It grimaces me in pain after reading reports that coach Chot will juggle his duties as coach for the national team and the PBA. What? Why juggle? You know very well that pride and honor are at stake. We only need a full-time coach, not part-time, for the na tional squad. Period! That is what is demanded by basketball crazy Pinoys! If Glen Escandor, our SBP re gional chief, happens to be the national president of the Samah ang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, he will naturally pick coach Ronel Leute rio to coach the national team. Do you think Mr.Escandor will allow coach Ronel to do something else? Of course not! Coach Ronel has a duty, solemn duty, to serve only one.NowPeriod!coach Chot, am I being unreasonable?
