25,000 umili, naserbian 2010 Balikatan: US Marine officer Big-spending Villar still fails to overhaul Aquino lead - Kiko The 2010 presidential race will not go to the first on track nor to the more moneyed––but to the pure of heart, Liberal Party stalwart Sen. Kiko Pangilinan said yesterday.

“Despite being the first candidate to run in the presidential derby, and an unprecedented ad buy of over one billion pesos since November of last year, Sen. Villar continues to fall short of his ultimate objective––that of overtaking Sen. Noynoy,” he said.

The last four surveys have had slightly different numbers, according to Sen. Pangilinan, with only one common thread: Sen. Noynoy consistently leads in all of them.

The latest Pulse Asia Survey had Aquino leading Villar, 3629; the SWS Survey had Aquino up 36-34; the Manila Standard Survey likewise had Aquino holding on to a 36-34 lead; while the TNS Survey had Aquino enjoying a 41-30 lead.

All surveys except the TNS Survey––which was conducted just before the end of January––were conducted in February.

“The numbers themselves are rather inconsistent; in one survey Sen. Noy’s numbers in Mindanao are double that of Sen. Villar’s; in another, Sen. Noy’s lead in the same island is only three points. We are, however, happy to see that our people have not allowed themselves to be swayed by the deluge of Villar ads on TV.” Villar, according to figures from AGB Nielsen, has spent over P120 million from February 9 to March 2 on TV advertise-

Transparent, all-inclusive approach key to peace in Mindanao - Aquino Liberal Party standard bearer Noynoy Aquino said Wednesday that a transparent, all-inclusive approach is the key to sustainable and longlasting peace in Mindanao.

Binay: automation no guarantee for clean election United Opposition (UNO) vice presidential candidate and Makati Mayor Jojo Binay urged the people yesterday to guard their votes on May 10, saying that computerized balloting does not guarantee a clean and honest election.

The Commission on Elections (Comelec) is to hold the country’s first automated polls in May under the controversial P7.4-billion contract with Smartmatic, but Binay warned the electorate that election cheats are still out there to rob them of their votes.

“Marami po kasing expectations sa automation na nakakalimutan na ang automation ay para lamang po mapadali ang pagbibilang… at

hindi na tayo naghihintay ng linggo o buwan para malaman kung sino ang nanalo,” Binay told a radio interview in Iloilo, “Kaya ‘yung mga pandarayang gagawin bago bumoto… naririyan pa rin po ‘yan.”

The UNO vice presidential bet said some camps would still attempt to buy votes, intimidate voters, snatch ballot boxes, bribe official watchers and even switch results using the computer to ensure the victory of their candidates.

Binay said the discovery of double registration of some 200,000 names in the voters’ list in Mindanao was another testament to the lack of preparation on the part of the

AFP, local residents, US soldiers come together, build more than walls SALCEDO, Ilocos Sur - At the offskirts of a road in Barangay Atabay, several soldiers from the Armed Forces of the Philippines and U.S. Army are working together daily with the farmers to build a flood protection wall here.

The soldiers working at the site are helping to build a flood protection wall that residents here say will help control water from the river during the rainy season. Philippine and U.S. soldiers have been working hard since February 14 so that they can complete it by midMarch. The task is enormous as the AFP and U.S. teams are building many four-foot by four-foot cages each day to secure the wall. But the soldiers are not the only ones who work on the wall.

“The residents help out as they can,” said Spc. Albert Ericson, a carpentry and masonry specialist with 3rd Mobile Engineer Brigade, 6th Engineer Battalion, 56th Engineer Company, 1st Platoon, from Minong, Wisconsin.

EDITORIAL Maysa a wagas ti panaggatang iti butos Mabalin a madiskualipika ti maysa a kandidato para presidente gapu iti mapapati a panaggatangna iti butos, segun iti maysa a komisioner iti Commission on Elections.

Mismo a ni Election Commissioner Rene Sarmiento ti nagkuna a mabalin a sumabit iti panaggatang iti butos ni presidential candidate Manny Villar gapu iti ar-aramidenna a panagiwaras iti regalo (karaman ditoy ti scholarships) bayat kadagiti panagkampaniana ken angayenna a political rally.

“Iti babaen ti Seksion 261 ti Omnibus Election Code, karaman kadagiti maiparit nga aramid ti panagited iti kuarta wenno aniaman nga addaan pateg tapno mapaboran ti maysa a kandidato. Maawagan dayta iti panaggatang iti butos,” kinuna ni Commissioner Rene Sarmiento.

Segun ken ni Sarmiento, maysa met a wagas ti panaggatang iti butos dagiti scholarships nga ibumbunong ni Villar kadagiti political sorties ken political rally nga ang-angayenna.

Madakamat ditoy nga iti maysa a konsierto iti SM Mall of Asia iti Pasay City, mapapati a nagited ni Camille, anak ni Villar, kadagiti scholarships para kadagiti ubbing nga aggatad iti P70,000. Kasta met bayat ti panagkampaniana iti tiendaan ti Batangas City, mapapati a nagiwaras ni Villar iti sag-P20 kadagiti ubbing tapno igatangda iti kamote.

Mapapati pay a nagited ni Villar iti balay ken lote, kuarta, groseria ken scholarships kadagiti nakisalip iti “Wowowee” a programa ti telebision.

Ngem inkalintegan ti kampo ni Villar a saan a vote-buying ti panagiwarasna iti sag-P20 kadagiti ubbing agsipud ta saan a makabutos dagitoy, kasta met nga iti rock concert iti SM Mall of Asia, awan ti pasetna iti programa ken saan nga isu no di ti anakna a ni Camille ti nagited kadagiti scholarships.

Sagudayen ti Election Code a maibilang a panaggatang iti butos wenno panaglako iti butos ti “asinoman a tao a mangted, mangitanggaya wenno mangikari iti kuarta wenno aniaman nga adda pategna... tapno maawis daytoy wenno ti publiko nga agbutos para wenno kontra iti maysa a kandidato...”

Segun ken ni Sarmiento, kasapulan nga adda maipila a reklama iti Comelec tapno marugian ti inbestigasion mainaig iti mapapati a panaglabsing.

Awan la kadin ti maaramidan ti Comelec tapno mapasardeng dagiti kandidato nga agdadata ken awan amakda nga agsalungasing kadagiti paglintegan ti eleksion? Di payen raemen dagitoy dagiti paglintegan ita ta kandidatoda pay laeng, anianto laengen inton addadan iti puestoda?

Saan koma nga urayen ti Comelec nga adda mangidatag iti reklamo santo agkuti. Maibilang dayta a kinalupoy iti sanguanan ti ipakpakita dagiti kandidato a dida panangipirpirit kadagiti paglintegan ti eleksion.

Ipakita koma ti Comelec nga adda durina a mangipakat kadagiti paglintegan iti eleksion.#

KORAPSION: PASET TI KULTURA TI PILIPINO? Ni Tatang Lakay

Nakababain nga akuen ngem masapul a sanguen ti kinapudno a nakaro ti korapsion ditoy pagilian. Ti pay nakaladladingit, mapaliiw a nagramaramen daytoy kadagiti dandani amin nga ahensia ti turay.

Saan ngarud a nakakaskasdaaw ti panangannugot ti maysa nga opisial ti gobierno nga adda korapsion ditoy pagilian agsipud ta kas panangikalinteganna, maysa daytoyen a paset ti kultura ti Pilipinas.

Iti interbiona iti media itay nabiit, inaklon ni Deputy Presidential Spokesman Gary Olivar a nabayagen a problema ditoy pagilian ti korapsion sana innayon a daytoy a problema ket paseten ti kultura ni Pilipino.

“Ang problema po ay nasa kultura natin yan hindi lang sa ating mga institusyon sa ating mga proseso.

Ito ay kultura sa pulitika at saka sa pamumuhay,” kinuna ni Olivar.

Iti rimmuar a surbey ti Political and Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC) a nakabase iti Hongkong, maikapat

ti Pilipinas kadagiti pagilian iti Asia Pacific a kangrunaan a pagrarairaan ti korapsion.

Maibatay iti nasao a surbey, kakaruan ti kasaknap ti korapsion iti Indonesia, simmaruno ti Cambodia, Vietnam, Pilipinas, Thailan, Malaysia, Taiwan, South Korea.

Ti Singapore ti kabassitan ti korapsion, simmaruno ti Australia sa ti Hongkong.

No patien ni Olivar, dakkel ti nagapuanan ti administrasion ni Arroyo iti pannakasolbar ti korapsion iti pagilian ngem adu pay ti rumbeng a maipakat tapno mapugipog daytoy a problema.

Ngem ti makadakes, narigat a sippawen lattan daytoy nga imbalikas ni

Olivar. Ta maisungani ti ibatbatadna kadagiti mapaliiw a mapaspasamak kadagiti nadumaduma nga ahensia ti gobierno.

MARCH 15-21, 2010 SUNDAY MARCH 21, 2010 5th Sunday of Lent Ps 126:1-2, 2-3, 4-5, 6 The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.

1st Reading: Is 43:16-21 Thus says Yahweh, who opened a way through the sea and a path in the mighty waters, who brought down chariots and horses, a whole army of them, and there they lay, never to rise again, snuffed out like a wick. But do not dwell on the past, or remember the things of old. Look, I am doing a new thing: now it springs forth. Do you not see? I am opening up a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. The beasts of the land will honor me, jackals and ostriches, because I give water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert that my chosen people may drink. I have formed this people for myself; they will proclaim my praise.

2nd Reading: Phil 3:8-14 Everything seems to me as nothing compared with the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord. For his sake I have let everything fall away and I now consider all as garbage, if instead I may gain Christ. May I be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the Law, but with righteousness that God gives to those who believe. May I know him and experience the power of his resurrection and share in his sufferings and become like him in his death, and attain through this, God willing, the resurrection from the dead! I do not believe I have already reached the goal, nor do I consider myself perfect, but I press on till I conquer Christ Jesus, as I have already been conquered by him. No, brothers and sisters, I do not claim to have claimed the prize yet. I say only this: forgetting what is behind me, I race forward and run towards the goal, my eyes on the prize to which God has called us from above in Christ Jesus.

Gospel: Jn 8:1-11 Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. At daybreak Jesus appeared in the Temple again. All the people came to him, and he sat down and began to teach them. Then the teachers of the Law and the Pharisees brought in a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They made her stand in front of everyone.

“Master,” they said, “this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. Now the Law of Moses orders that such women be stoned to death; but you, what do you say?” They said this to test Jesus, in order to have some charge against him.

Jesus bent down and started writing on the ground with his finger. And as they continued to ask him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let anyone among you who has no sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” And he bent down again, writing on the ground. As a result of these words, they went away, one by one, starting with the elders, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. Then Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”

She replied, “No one.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go away and don’t sin again.”

Reflections “Whichever one of you has committed no sin may throw the first stone.”

Everything is meant for our good; even sin. Once we confront the sin in ourselves there is no room for arrogance anymore, no room to be judgmental of others. Sin, if we admit it in ourself, frees us to be kind, to be merciful, to be humble. (Daily Gospel 2010, CLARETIAN PUBLICATIONS)

WITH THIS MLE TURN, NOW WE MAKE THE ROAD WHILE WALKING: OUR TASK AT NAKEM AND AT THE UH ILOKANO PROGRAM UNTIL 2015

By Dr. Aurelio Solver Agcaoili University of Hawaii (CONTINUATION) No, we will no longer use Ilokano as the signifier that expresses our sense of selfworth and self-respect. If we continue to do so, we will have to contend with the signified, in this vicious circle of cultural denigration courtesy of the tyranny of our educational policies and philosophies: we will not become good enough for the universities, not good enough for the social media that bombard us with images that valorize what is not us as a people, and not good enough to face the demands of our teaching profession that demands our competency in other languages but never our very own.

And so while we do not acknowledge our illiteracy in our own language, we accuse and judge our students of being illiterate in the languages of our schools.

We accuse our students of abandonment of their duty to learn through the dominant languages that are not theirs in the first place.

We accuse them of conspiring to learn otherwise, preferring to flunk all national and international standard examinations as if the only metric to national education is the test score.

This whole-scale accusation has always been premised on an educational philosophy and policy that have never been inward looking but always looking to how many of our graduates we can send abroad so they can send back the dollars and the dinars we need to make the sinking economy afloat.

By virtue of these educational regimes, the unjust educational policies valorizing and entitling only the dominant languages in all our educational institutions because of state power, we have failed to teach our Ilokano students how to read the word, and how to read the world. 4 With Ilokano students failing to master these strange because ‘foreign’ languages, we use against this failure to penalize them and issue out a verdict that they are incompetent, illiterate, un-

educated. We do not tell those things to ourselves because we are the educators.

Our teaching logic is quite simple: our students should be in our own image, our clone. We are the educational gods.

But our students are not like us—or they have registered that tacit refusal, the greater refusal, to be like us, with their brand of language that is called ‘text’ or ‘text messaging’ or ‘short message service’, and they are good at it.5 We are good in English; they are not.

We are bad in the mother language because we are not to allow this to twist our Englishspeaking tongue, they are worse.

No, they ought to think and act and behave like us. And so they need to fall in line and be punished for all the world to see because this world, globalized and inspirer of everything homogenous, needs global citizens who are ready to serve the ends of the community of the dominant out there, but never, never, the local communities—their own local

communities.

And so here is the first symptom of our withdrawal from all that which critical engagement in liberatory education is a necessity. We are withdrawing, and yet we have not done our end of the bargain.

In this panel, we are asked to state with clarity our MLE goals.

“We” here refers to the advocates at Nakem Conferences International, Nakem Conferences Philippines, Nakem Youth, the advocates of the Academy for Ilokano and Amianan Studies, and those academics involved at the University of Hawaii Ilokano Language and Literature Program. We are not going to disappoint you: our task rests in the making of our own road as we travel, as we walk, as we journey, and as we take the first and most difficult step to resist the homogenizing consequences of a bilingual education that has caused us more harm than good. We are all pilgrims in

TI DAGA A NAPNUAN KARI Sarita ni Jaime M. Agpalo, Jr. (MAIKAPAT A PASET) Dua a supot ti binitbit ti lalaki. Para kenkuana ti maysa.

Para kadagiti agpalpalama ti sabali. Nagsarimadeng idi nailaksid iti ridaw. Nagtalangkiaw. Dinan makita dagiti agpalpalama. Intag-ayna sana linibian ti maysa a supot.

“Nagdarasdan a nakapanaw?” kinunana. Dagiti laeng agsasallupang a naariwawa a lugan nga agasarsarwa iti gita ken dagiti kasla agdardaras iti pannagnada a tattao ti maimatanganna.

Ngem, saan a bale, nakuna ti lalaki iti bagina. Kanenna laengen. Nagna. Pagna a pagna. Nakadanon iti parke a dina napupuotan. Indalupisakna lattan ti bannogna iti karuotan.

Nagdalukappit. Intukolna ti kannawan a sikona iti luppona sa nagtapaya. Ngem kawaw ti mugingna.

“Wen, aya, apay diak a nangan iti uneg ti kantina?” nakunana iti bagina idi inukasna ti tapayana. Dagiti ngamin agpalpalama ti linaon ti mugingna bayat ti kaaddana iti uneg ti kantina.

Binukitkitanna ti maysa a supot. Kalpasan a makanna dagitoy a taraon, agsapul manen iti trabaho. Uray ania a klase ti trabaho. Uray katulong, basta adda. No saan a makabirok, gasatna ngatan ti matay iti bisin.

Dina mabilangen no namin-anon a daras a nagnaedda iti evacuation center gapu kadagiti dina mabilangen a gubat. Saanna a maawatan no apay a di sumardeng ti gubat iti lugarda.

“Ania ti nadaydayaw, ti matay iti bisin wenno matay a nagtakaw gapu iti bisin?” dinamagna iti bagina. Nanglangit.

“Ti la sumsumrek iti panunotmo,” sinungbatanna met laeng ti bagina. “Isu met!” naipigsana. “Matayto met laeng amin a tao, apay a nasken a mabisinan pay nga umuna santo matay?” Limmidem ti panagkitana ket nginarietanna ti gitebgiteb dagiti pispisna.

It will be recalled that Binay also raised the possibility of an election failure stemming from the poor performance of the machines during field tests conducted in January and the simultaneous nationwide mock

elections held in February.

Observers reported transmission problems, rejection of ballots, failure of some machines to read ballots and long queues during the field tests, among others.

BIG SPENDING... (From page 1) ments alone. The figure puts Villar’s total expenditures on political advertisements from November 1 last year to March 2 this year at over P1.3 billion– –an amount almost equal to the total TV ad expenditures of four of his closest rivals.

Former President Joseph Estrada ranked second with P88 million, followed by Sen. Aquino with P87 million and Sen. Richard Gordon with P67.3 million, and Administration party bet Gilberto Teodoro Jr. with P60.4 million TV commercials since the start of the campaign period.

If spending from November 1 last year would be taken into account, Teodoro would rank second as he has spent almost half a billion pesos (P472,810,675 million) on TV ads from November 1 last year to March 2 this year.

“This only proves that our people will not support a leader who has been tainted by corruption nor one who is associated with the corrupt.

The surveys show that Filipinos want a decent, honest leader they can trust––and they see that in Sen. Noy,” Pangilinan said.#

PEACE IN MINDANAO... (From page 1) initiate peace talks with all rebel groups within 100 days of his administration, and work for a comprehensive settlement with the MILF and the CCP-NPANDF during his six-year term. ”It is time to end the cycle of violence that has bled our country and people for so long,” he said. “Only a broadlysupported agreement will succeed in redressing decades of neglect and oppression of the Moro and other peoples of Mindanao,” he said.

Aquino pointed to the peace dividends that boosted the growth of Davao, General Santos, and Cagayan de Oro cities in the aftermath of the peace settlement with the Moro

National Liberation Front during the administration of President Fidel Ramos.

He expressed confidence that the second wave of development resulting from a peace agreement will boost growth in the cities of Cotabato, Iligan, Zamboanga, and Pagadian.

Aquino also decried the appointment of former peace adviser Jesus Dureza as chair of the newly-established Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA).

“Dureza was one of the architects of the failed MOAAD. This president has rewarded people loyal to her at the expense of national interest,” he said.#

AFP, US SOLDIERS... (From page 1) and resident of Salcedo, appreciates the help they have received throughout the project.”Thank you to Balikatan in helping (with this work ) in our province,” Ellazar said.

The project is in support of Balikatan 2010, an annual combined joint bilateral exercise involving the Armed Forces of the Philippines, the U.S. military, and personnel and subject matter experts from Philippine Civil Defense agencies.

For the soldiers, the help they receive from the residents of Salcedo is beneficial to the overall mission accomplishment. It is also symbolic of the building of bonds. “Team work is nice,” said Spc. Carlos Perez Rodriguez, an interior electrician with 3rd Mobile Engineer Brigade, 6th Engineer Battalion, 56th Engineer Company, 1st Platoon, and Bayamon,
