DUTERTE: DEATH PENALTY IS FOR RETRIBUTION Not intended to deter crime

MANILA, June 23 (Mabuhay) – President-elect Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday stood by to his plan to push for the reimposition of the death penalty despite claims by Catholic church leaders and human rights advocates that executions are not a deterrent to crime. Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of Senator-elect Manny Pacquiao and other local officials in Sarangani, Duterte said that he was pushing for the revival of dealth penalty not to discourage people from committing crimes but to ensure retribution. “The death penalty might be a deterrence to prevent or matakot siya to commit a crime but that is one school

of thought. The other school of thought is iyang death penalty hindi iyan pantakot,” Duterte said. “Hindi iyan to deter. Whether you like to commit a crime or not, that’s not my business. You are equipped with your mental faculty. Iyong death penalty to me is the retribution. Magbayad ka sa ginawa mo sa buhay na ito. Kaya hindi kami magkaSee RETRIBUTION, page 10

Duterte reiterates vow against corruption, criminality, drugs in Alabel, Sarangani (June 23, 2016) – President-elect Rodrigo Roa Duterte delivers his speech during the historic event, “Convergence: The Inaugural Ceremony of a United Sarangani and General Santos”, after witnessing the ceremonial oath taking of Sarangani and General Santos local officials Wednesday, June 22, hosted by Governor Steve Chiongbian Solon with the theme Unity, Integrity and Prosperity. On November 27, 2015, Duterte delivered a speech in the same venue during the Munato Festival and 23rd Foundation Anniversary of Sarangani a few hours after his lawyer filed his certificate of candidacy for president in Intramuros. In that speech, the Davao City mayor vowed that he will build a law-abiding, God-fearing and comfortable nation if elected president. Duterte also said that “corruption has to stop” and “criminality has to go.” He made it clear he would not change his ways in dealing with drug dealers and criminals. Duterte reiterated these on Wednesday before thousands of local officials and families who erupted into wild applause. (Kim Tiblani/Provincial Governor’s Office)

Asian lawmakers disappointed by SC decision on undocumented Washington, D.C. – The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday released a 4-4 decision in United States v. Texas, the legal challenge to President Obama’s Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) and expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) programs. The deadlock ruling upholds an injunction by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals to block the implementation of these programs. However, the ruling does not affect

the original DACA program launched in June 2012. Members of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC) released the following statements: “I am extremely disappointed by the Supreme Court’s decision to deny temporary relief to millions of immigrant families, including hundreds of thousands of Asians and Pacific Islanders who will continue to live in constant fear of being separated from their See UNDOCUMENTED, page 10

PHL can withstand possible ‘Brexit’ effects: BSP By Kris M. Crismundo

MANILA, June 24 (PNA) – The Philippines can withstand the possible impact of United Kingdom’s (UK) exit in European Union (EU) or the ‘Brexit’, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Deputy Governor Diwa Guinigundo said. Guinigundo said the country has strong macroeconomic fundamentals and sufficient foreign exchange reserves if there will be any negative effects in the Philippine market after the Brexit. He added that these should be considered

by investors if they have thoughts of leaving the domestic market. “From our perspective, while Great Britain is also an important trading and investment partner, considering the magnitude, the power of economic relationship with Great Britain, I think we have sufficient buffers to be able to absorb any negative consequence of Brexit,” he added. Guinigundo also mentioned that the country continues to have surplus on balance of payments and has “generally good” current See BREXIT EFFECTS, page 10

Ask yourself the following: â&#x20AC;˘Are you heavily in debt, with little prospect of relief in the near future? â&#x20AC;˘Have you had, or are your creditors threatening, a foreclosure on your home, a repossession of your car or other legal action to take your property? â&#x20AC;˘Have you experienced a dramatic drop in income? â&#x20AC;˘Are you frequently late paying bills? â&#x20AC;˘Do you only pay the minimum on your credit cards? â&#x20AC;˘Are you unable to make even the minimum payments? â&#x20AC;˘Do you have to sacrifice basic necessities to make ends meet? â&#x20AC;˘Are you paying more money than you make on basic living expenses? â&#x20AC;˘Are you losing sleep at night wondering how youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to make it? â&#x20AC;˘Have you bounced more than one check in the last two months? â&#x20AC;˘Are your wages currently, or in jeopardy of, being garnished? â&#x20AC;˘Have you recently become sick, or partially or totally disabled? â&#x20AC;˘Are you going through a divorce resulting in a decrease of income but an increase in expenses? People with high incomes and even higher debts can also qualify for debt relief through bankruptcy. If your answer to one or more of the above questions was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yesâ&#x20AC;?, you should call me immediately. I can help you. Bankruptcy chapter 7 or 13 can eliminate your debt and give you a fresh start to rebuild your credit within a relatively short period of time. A clean slate is the ultimate tool of empowerment. It enables you to take back control of your finances, and plan for the future. A good nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep may also be one of the benefits of â&#x20AC;&#x153;getting your life back together againâ&#x20AC;?, and that is worth a lot. For many people, the decision to pursue bankruptcy protection is not easy to make. Somehow, you want to save face and â&#x20AC;&#x153;do the right thing.â&#x20AC;? You continue to struggle along while your creditors turn up the heat. Pretty soon, with all the late fees, penalties and mounting interest, it becomes impossible to keep your head above water. You feel you are drowning, and financially, you probably are. Your next step is to talk to a qualified bankruptcy attorney to assess your rights and determine if bankruptcy is right for you. Bankruptcy is not for everyone, but you need to be an informed consumer to make the right decision. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to take a good hard look at your own financial situation? Taking a close look at the bottom line takes courage, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a necessity. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait until your wages are being garnished or your car is repossessed. You and your family deserve better. Be proactive and resolve the situation now. Even if you are in the early stages of experiencing mounting debt problems, call my office today. As an experienced bankruptcy attorney, I can help separate panic from reality

and assist you in identifying all of your options. You may even find out that you have more options than you thought! â&#x20AC;˘So what happens, when your attorney files a Bankruptcy on your behalf? Before filing your case, the law requires that you receive a briefing from a certified credit-counseling agency to explain financial management to you, alternatives to bankruptcy, and how to do a budget analysis. Although there are some hardship exceptions to this rule, most debtors will have to get this briefing. Our office subscribes to an approved online service provider, and we set you up with the necessary login information. This usually takes less than 30 minutes and can be done at home or in our office. Next, your attorney files the petition in local bankruptcy court. When this occurs, the court appoints a bankruptcy trustee to your case and an â&#x20AC;&#x153;Automatic Stayâ&#x20AC;? is entered. This is a court order prohibiting all creditors from taking any further action against you outside of bankruptcy court. This action is designed to: â&#x20AC;˘Stop harassing calls and bills from creditors â&#x20AC;˘Protect your property from seizure â&#x20AC;˘Prohibit or suspend creditor lawsuits against you â&#x20AC;˘Prevent foreclosure of your home â&#x20AC;˘Stop wage garnishments â&#x20AC;˘Block the repossession of your automobile. The automatic stay can be waived if the creditor is a government agency, or has a security interest in real or personal property, such as a mortgage or auto loan. However, they do have to file a court motion to lift the stay, which gives you and your attorney time to consider various options, including a possible loan modification, or amortizing delinquent payments through a chapter 13 plan over five years, or both. Bankruptcy will eliminate all unsecured debt. This includes credit card debt, medical bills, personal loans, judgments resulting from car accidents, deficiencies on repossessed vehicles, Payday loans and even some older income taxes, provided it meets very specific criteria. However, you will still be liable for debts on Child support, Taxes, and Student loans. If you need help in resolving your financial problems, easing that debt load, and want to improve your credit scores, call the bankruptcy lawyer that people trust. Call the Law Offices of Paul M. Allen and 818-552-4500 and schedule a free consultation. Three convenient locations to serve you: Glendale, Cerritos and La Palma.

Fil-Chinese community wants ‘emergency powers’ for Duterte By Jelly F. Musico

MANILA, June 21 (PNA) – The Federation of the Filipino-Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (FFCCII) supports the emergency powers being asked by incoming President Rodrigo Duterte. The influential business group, however, said in its letters to incoming House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez that the emergency powers should cover not only traffic problem but the crime, corruption and illegal drugs. “By granting our president-elect emergency powers, he

would be able to address the above issues, instill discipline among our people, and set the policies needed to protect and promote the interest of our citizens,” said Angel Ngu, FFCCII president, in a letter dated May 27, 2016 to Alvarez. Duterte won by a landslide during the May 9 presidential election on a platform anchored on taking a tough stand against criminality, especially the menace of illegal drugs, as well as in combating graft and corruption in government. He is set to assume presidency on June 30. A passenger taps his metro rail beep card to pay his bus fare to the Bonifacio Global City (BGC) on Monday.

Tougher penalties vs carnapping awaiting Aquino’s signature MANILA, June 23 (Mabuhay) – The Revised Anti-Carnapping Act, which imposes stiffer penalties for the perpetrators of carnapping, is now up for President Aquino’s approval. House Bill 4544, authored by re-elected Reps. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (2nd District, Pampanga), Evelina Escudero (1st District, Sorsogon) and Winston Castelo (2nd District, Quezon City), aims to increase the years of imprisonment for carjackers and gives a more elaborate description of who can be considered as violators of the anti-carnapping law. Under the proposed measure, the person guilty of the crime regardless of the vehicle’s value shall be imprisoned for 20 years but not more than 30 years. The current anti-carnapping law only imposes 14 to 17 years and four months of imprisonment. When the crime is committed without violence, imprisonment years shall be 30 up to 40 years while carnapping with violence shall be life imprisonment as the penalty. HB 4544 also entails carnapping as a non-bailable offense especially if the evidence of guilt is strong. The bill also adds punishment from six to 12 years imprisonment to persons who participate in the concealment of the crime. Public officials and government employees who are involved are also subject to dismissal in service and shall be perpetually disqualified from holding any public office if found guilty. The revised measure also requires any person asking for the original registration of the vehicle to apply for clearance from the Philippine National Police (PNP) with the Land Transportation Office (LTO).

Watchdog raises questions about rise in drug arrests, slays MANILA, June 23 (Mabuhay) – An anti-crime watchdog on Thursday raised questions about the rising number of drug-related arrests and killings in the Philippines, saying some police officers may be going overboard and not targeting the “big fish” in the war against drugs. “Masyadong substantial, hindi believable,” Arsenio “Boy” Evangelista, spokesperson of the Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption, said. “Parang sumobra, naging moro-moro, sarsuwela.” Evangelista said that while the efforts are appreciated, the PNP should also focus on high value targets in the drug war. “Ang gusto po namin, makita dito ‘yung mismong mga law enforcers. ‘Yung mga men in uniform na lumalaban sa kanila, napapatay nila na involved sa mga illegal drugs... mga high profile targets na gusto nating makita,” he said.

At least 40 drug suspects have been killed since President-elect Rodrigo Duterte’s May 9 election victory, compared with the 39 deaths recorded in the four months before it. The Philippine National Police (PNP) said there have been over 3,700 drug-related arrests from May 10 to June 15, 2016. Duterte has vowed an intensified campaign against the drug menace and has given government authorities three to six months to curb criminality all over the country. Evangelista also questioned why so many drug suspects are killed allegedly after trying to seize the guns of arresting officers. Police data earlier showed Central Luzon has the most number of drug suspects killed at 25, followed by Davao Region, Soccsksargen (South Cotabato, Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani. General Santos City), Central Visayas and Metro Manila.

Simple inauguration for Robredo at QC Reception House MANILA, June 23 (Mabuhay) – Vice President-elect Leni Robredo will be sworn in at the Quezon City Reception House, where she will hold office. The inauguration will be held at 9 a.m. of June 30, her camp announced on Thursday. “Minabuti nating sundan ang ginawa ni President-elect Rodrigo Duterte, na nagpasyang gawin ang kaniyang inagurasyon sa Malacañang, kung saan siya mag-o-opisina. Kaya gagawin natin ang inaugural sa Quezon City Reception House, na siyang magiging opisyal na opisina ng ating pangalawang pangulo,” said Boyet Dy, Robredo’s chief of staff and head of the transition committee. A short program will be held for the event. Robredo will be sworn in by two barangay captains: Rolando Coner of Punta Tarawal, the “smallest, farthest, and poorest” barangay in the third district of Camarines Sur, and Regina Celeste San Miguel of Barangay Mariana, where the QC

Reception House is located. Robredo’s camp assured the public that the ceremonies will likewise be “simple,” taking the cue from that of Duterte. Only around 300 guests are expected in Robredo’s inauguration. Aside from family, Dy said the vice president-elect asked that representatives from sectors she has worked with as a lawyer be present at the event. “Pinakabilin niya is tiyakin na ‘yung bawat sektor na matagal niyang nakasama at pinagsilbihan bilang abugado ay nandoon,” Dy said. “[Kasama diyan ang] kababaihan, magsasaka, mangingisda, manggagawa.” Dy also noted that there will be free seating at the inauguration. “Wala pong seat plan,” he said. “Free seating po ito. Ang bahagi ng mensahe is, this is the inauguration na magpapatibay sa kung anong pangalawang pangulo ang gustong maging ni Vice President Robredo,

at ‘yun ay ang maglingkod sa mga nasa laylayan.” Dy said the inauguration committee is finalizing the guest list for

the event, and there is no word yet whether Robredo’s running-mate, former Interior Sec. Mar Roxas, will be attending the ceremonies. (MNS)

Incoming PNP Chief vows to resign if he fails to reduce criminality, drugs within 3-6 months By Christopher Lloyd T. Caliwan

MANILA, June 13 (PNA) – Incoming Chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Supt. Ronald Dela Rosa will resign after six months if he fails to reduce criminality and drugs in the country. Dela Rosa would personally ask President-elect Rodrigo Duterte to sack and replace him if he fails to stop the proliferation of illegal drugs within the three-to-six months target. “I will step down if you see me as a failure. If I will not deliver a good result in six months. I will surrender and I will tell him (Duterte): ‘I cannot do it, please release me, let me go’,”

Dela Rosa said in an interview at Camp Crame in Quezon City. Dela Rosa aims to accomplish the anti-criminality and drugs campaign within the three to six months timeframe and he will make every effort to attain. The center piece of the Duterte administration is peace and order and the plan to reduce criminality and corruption within the said time frame Dela Rosa is set to focus on eliminating drugs while reducing other forms of crime as well. “ We need to get rid of those first then at the same time, we need to eliminate all other forms of crime,”

he said. While admitting that he is indeed a junior compared to the other qualified senior police officers, dela Rosa said what he could offer is his sincerity as head of the national police organization. Dela Rosa said he would replicate the peace and order strategies which he developed and implemented in Davao City in various police offices across the country.And part of it is a regular assessment of the performance of the police commanders, from regional directors to town police chiefs, to determine if they still have to stay on the job.

“Three months after their appointment, we will evaluate their performance if they measure up on the expectation of the public,” said dela Rosa. According to Dela Rosa they will conduct a lifestyle check among the force to remove officials involved in illegal activities. “We will do every approach – legal or illegal – to stop these officials from doing just the same act over again,” he insisted. The incoming PNP Chief said that he also wanted the station commanders of each police station to be more engaged in the field to help the reduction of petty crimes.

Left can protect Duterte presidency, says Sison DAVAO CITY, June 22 (Mabuhay) – Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) founder Jose Maria Sison said Tuesday the Left will maximize the use of the three Cabinet positions being offered by President-elect Rodrigo Duterte. Duterte designated nominees of the Left to the departments of agrarian reform, social welfare and development, and labor and employment, signaling a warming of ties between the communist movement and the Philippine government under the new leader. Sison said the DSWD portfolio, given to professor Judy Taguiwalo, could be used to implement social reforms as well as protect the Duterte presidency. “Kung halimbawa nanganganib ang gobyerno ni President Duterte, sa lahat ng nasa department na nasa kaliwa pwede yang magpakilos ng kabataan,” he said. “Halimbawa, ang mga kabataang magsasaka pwedeng pakilusin para ipagtanggol ang Duterte government kung siya ay gustong ibagsak ng mga cacique o mga foreign plantation owners,” he added. He said DAR secretary-designate Rafael Mariano will have to deal with agrarian reform laws which he believes are in contradiction with the advocacy of the CPP. Sison said the country’s land reform program is oppressive as it requires beneficiaries to pay for land redistribution. He said the government must relieve the poor farmers of the

burden of paying for land redistribution by expropriating the parcels of land. “May challenge, may hamon na magtulak ng panibagong batas para maging tunay ang reporma sa lupa,” he said. “Kung ang gobyerno ay kayang gumastos ng bilyon bilyon at ibigay sa dilaw na NGOs, bakit hindi bayaran ang lupa para sa expropriation price? Pwede naming bayaran ang land lord sa tamang expropriation price, tapos ibigay ang lupa ng libre sa magsasaka,” he added, referring to the Aquino administration. “Kung pababayarin mo ng lupa ang mga landless tillers, mawawala iyan. Mapupunta ang lupa sa ibang tao o kapamilya rin ng mayari ng lupa ang magsasamsam muli sa lupa.” Sison, meanwhile, believes that labor secretary-designate Silvestre Bello III and undersecretary-designate Joel Maglunsod will do a good job, particularly in ending the “endo” practice where contractual employees are hired and rehired in order for them not to avail of the benefits being given to regular employees. “Maraming magagawa. May mga limitasyon pero marami pa ring magagawa. At kung mga progresibo ay nasa isang departamento, pag may mga limintasyon na kailangan aysuin, kailangan ayusin, maaring magpatupad ng Executive Order o gumawa ng bagong batas.” (MNS)

Duterte returns to Sarangani as President in Alabel, Sarangani (June 23, 2016) – Presidentelect Rodrigo Roa Duterte arrives at the Sarangani Capitol Wednesday, June 22, to grace one of the province’s historic events, “Convergence: The Inaugural Ceremony of a United Sarangani and General Santos”, the oath-taking ceremony of local officials of Sarangani and General Santos City, including that of Governor Steve Chiongbian Solon and Senator-elect Emmanuel Pacquiao. On November 27, 2015, Duterte delivered a speech in the same venue during the Munato Festival and 23rd Foundation Anniversary of Sarangani a few hours after his lawyer filed his certificate of candidacy for president in Intramuros. In that speech, the Davao City mayor vowed that he will build a law-abiding, God-fearing and comfortable nation if elected president.

Ex-Gabriela solon to Duterte: Keep ears, feet on the ground regarding women’s issues MANILA, June 22 (Mabuhay) – A women’s rights advocate and former lawmaker urged President-elect Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday to “keep his feet and ears on the ground” at all times so he will become more sensitive about women’s issues. Despite criticisms about his view of and attitude towards women, former Gabriela party-list Rep. Liza Maza believes Duterte will lend an ear to their concerns because he is known to be open to receiving advice. “President Duterte is a listening President. Hindi niya magagawa ang kanyang cam-

paign platform na naka-engganyo sa mahigit 16 million voters kundi siya nakinig. Ang tingin namin ay magiging mainam para sa kanya na makinig rin sa kalahati ng ating populasyon,” she said in reference to women. Asked what advice her group would give Duterte to correct criticism that he is disrespectful of women, Maza said: “Ang practical advice namin kay President-elect Duterte would be to keep his feet and ears on the ground at all times kasi alam naman natin na ang kababaihan, one-half ‘yan ng population.”

Business owner seeks to discharge $100k credit cards used to buy business Client is 50. This is his financial picture: He has been working as a truck driver for a furniture company for 15 years. Before that, he worked in the warehouse of that company for 5 years. He is married with a 10-yearold son and a 7-year-old daughter. His wife is a licensed vocational nurse who has gross income of $4,800 a month. They rent a single-family house for $1,800, and pay $520 a month on new E350 Mercedes Benz car lease. Last year, he decided to stop working as a truck driver to become a business owner. The business opportunity presented itself by way of a turnkey franchise. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a retail outlet that provides a service to the public. Client also has credit card debt of $100K. From experience, I know that there has to be some connection between the business and credit card debt. I asked him if he used the credit cards for the business. He said affirmatively that he was required to put a down payment of $50K on the business. What happened was that client used credit cards to pay the $50K down payment? How he was able to do this, escapes me. Apparently, the franchisor operated another company whose purpose is to use buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s credit cards to fund the $50K down payment. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another story altogether. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like going to a car dealer and using ten credit cards to pay for a $50K car. I know thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some finessing going on because 20 years ago, I offered to use one credit card with a $20K credit line to make a $10K down payment on a car, and the dealer told me that they could only used a max of $2,500 using the card. So this tells me that if you can use credit cards to pay for a $50K car or to make a down payment of $50K to buy a franchise, there has to be a lot of back door finessing going on to actually get money from all the credit cards to total a $50K payment. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just put it mildly as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;greyâ&#x20AC;? area. In any event, $50K was transferred from clientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s credit cards to the franchisor pursuant to a purchase agreement between client, buyer, and franchisor, seller. The total purchase price of the business was $100K. How was client going to pay for the other $50K? It was financed by a promissory note where client agreed to pay $2.5K a month until $50K was paid in full, interest at 12% p.a. Thinking that he had just acquired a very profitable business, client believed that he would have no problem paying himself a salary of $3K, the rent of another $3K, and the monthly payment to the franchisor of $2.5K, plus the $1.5K minimum monthly payments to keep the $50K credit cards current, until the business would be able to rake in profits by the truckloads to pay off the $50K

of credit cards. Eager to become a business tycoon, client opened his store at 7 a.m. and closed it at 7 p.m., seven days a week. In the first month, his gross receipts were a grand total of $3K. In the second month, his gross receipts were $2K. And on the third month, his gross receipts were $4K. After 12 months of hard work, his business was losing an average of $4 to $5K a month. He kept the business afloat by using credit cards to finance the monthly losses. So at the end of 12 months, he owed a total of $100K. But all good things come to an end. He has maxed out his credit cards and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nowhere else to borrow money. So now the credit card dogs are barking at the door. They want their pound of flesh. Client then realizes how foolish he was in buying this stupid franchise. Considering all these circumstances, does client qualify for Chapter 7 relief? Of course, he does. His intent was to pay every single cent of his credit cards from the truckload of profits from the business. Instead, he got truckload of losses. Blame that on his lack of experience in business, not on malice aforethought. Why will Hillary beat Trump? Yes, because Americans by and large, are inclusive. And by and large, Americans are a just and fair people. Americans are made up of different ethnicities from all over the world; who believe in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why America can have a black president for two terms despite the fact that Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s majority is not black. In America, we can talk freely about our ideas, which may differ from each other. I can say donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vote for Trump because this man is a demagogue. Indeed, if he becomes president of our great nation, a civil war between different American ethnicities could ensue. This is not far fetched when it is the prospective president Trump himself who incites these feelings of hate towards others who look different. That is so fifties and sixties and has no place in America of the 21st century. Even Pope Francis said that Trump was not Christian in spirit. Even though the Pope did not claim infallibility when he said that, that was a very big negative against Trump. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m voting for Hillary, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my president. â&#x20AC;&#x153;WE WAIT IN HOPE FOR THE

Duterte to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;corruptâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; officers: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Retire nowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ALABEL, Sarangani, June 22 (PNA) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Retire now or I will ask for your resignation in public.â&#x20AC;? President-elect Rodrigo R. Duterte gave this warning on Wednesday to three high-ranking officials of the Philippine National Police (PNP) whom he earlier tagged as involved in â&#x20AC;&#x153;corruptâ&#x20AC;? activities. Speaking before thousands of residents and local government leaders at the jam-packed provincial capitol gymnasium here, Duterte reiterated that the â&#x20AC;&#x153;higher echelonsâ&#x20AC;? of the PNP has â&#x20AC;&#x153;three generals who are really tainted with drugs.â&#x20AC;? He said the accused police officials should just retire from service practically in the next seven days or before he assumes office as the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16th President at noon on June 30. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Otherwise, I will name them publicly and ask for their resignation publicly,â&#x20AC;? he said amid cheers from the crowd. But Duterte, who issued his initial warning to the concerned police officials during his thanksgiving party in Davao City earlier this month, said he still believes that most of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s police officers are â&#x20AC;&#x153;very good.â&#x20AC;? He said that as long as police officers are doing their mandates right, they are assured of his full support.

Police officers who might be accused â&#x20AC;&#x153;unfairlyâ&#x20AC;? by some sectors for doing their jobs could get help from him, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wag nyo lang akong bolahin (Just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trick me) and I will take care of you. I will protect you,â&#x20AC;? he said. As to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;drug lordsâ&#x20AC;? and personalities involved in drug-related activities, he said they will meet their match when he assumes office. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To everyone, do not destroy my country because I will really kill you. Do not destroy our youth,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They (the youth) are the future of our country. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want us to have Filipinos in the future who are mostly mentally ill (because of illegal drugs,â&#x20AC;? Duterte added. The incoming President was here to witness the oath taking on Wednesday afternoon of the newly-elected officials of Sarangani Province and this city, and Senator-elect Emmanuel â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mannyâ&#x20AC;? Pacquiao. The oath-taking was presided by Executive Judge Oscar P. Noel of the Regional Trial Court here. Dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Convergence,â&#x20AC;? the event was described as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;inauguration and dedication to God in unity, integrity and prosperityâ&#x20AC;? of the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elected officials.

Legarda renews call for safety, preparedness in disasters MANILA, June 23 (Mabuhay) – Senator Loren Legarda has renewed her call for the nation to develop a culture of safety and preparedness to prevent natural hazards, such as earthquakes, from turning into disasters. “Everyone should be ready when the ‘Big One’ occurs. Government agencies and all public institutions must be prepared,” Legarda said in a statement Wednesday, following the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority’s (MMDA) second Metro Manila Shake Drill—a simulation of conditions that can occur if and when a 7.2-magnitude earthquake hits Metro Manila. “There should be an effective early warning system and massive information and education campaign to equip us with knowledge on what to do before, during and after such disasters,” she said. Legarda, Global Champion for Resilience of the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR), said there should be regular evaluation and retrofitting of public and private infrastructure to ensure that buildings, bridges and other similar structures can withstand strong earthquakes. Local government units (LGUs), including barangay (village) officials, she said, must determine open spaces for safe refuge when earthquakes occur and craft evacuation plans that would help the people find the fastest and safest way to reach open spaces and other secure areas. Legarda said she would file in the 17th Congress a bill that will mandate the regular conduct of fire

and earthquake drills in all public establishments, especially in schools and hospitals. The drills, she said, should include practice and instructions concerning the location, use and operation of emergency exits, fire escapes, doors and fire extinguishers and other facilities provided for such purpose in buildings as well as the proper evacuation of buildings by persons in the event of fires and earthquakes. The senator said there should be an effective early warning system like the “5pm chime” of Minato City in Japan. Everyday at 5:00 in the afternoon, she said, the instrumental version of the Japanese folk song “Yuyaku Koyake” is heard in speakers all around the said city. This is a way to ensure that the broadcast system and speakers are working correctly because the speaker network is used to

warn people of emergency situations, especially disaster warnings. “We also need to have this kind of early warning system in the country, so that wherever people are, they are informed of important announcements especially in emergency situations, thereby reducing risks, casualties and damages,” she said. Legarda reminded that disaster risk reduction and preparedness can significantly reduce the impacts projected in the 2004 Metro Manila Earthquake Impact Reduction Study (MMEIRS). The study revealed that without the necessary interventions, a 7.2-magnitude earthquake in Metro Manila could destroy 40% of residential buildings, damage 35% of all public buildings, kill 34,000 people, injure 114,000 individuals and the ensuing fires will also result in 18,000 additional fatalities.

SO MANY WAYS TO WIN™

By Ferdinand G. Patinio

MANILA, June 19 (PNA) – Outgoing Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz urged President-elect Rodrigo Duterte to consider imposing death penalty to those involved in illegal recruitment activities victimizing aspiring overseas Filipino workers (OFWs). She noted such activities should be regarded as an organized or heinous crime for duping would-be overseas workers. “Right now, the law already provides the highest penalty of life imprisonment since it is considered as economic sabotage. So considering illegal recruitment for death penalty could be considered,” Baldoz said. Rule IV, Section 5 of Republic Act No. 10022 provides that the penalty of life imprisonment shall be imposed if illegal recruitment constitutes economic sabotage, wherein a syndicate or a group of three persons or more conspired to commit the activity. The incoming Chief Executive is bent on restoring the capital punishment for heinous crimes as soon as he assumes his office on June 30. Duterte said the death penalty should be considered for criminals involved in illegal drugs, gun-for-hire syndicates, and in “heinous crimes” like rape, robbery with murder. Under the law, illegal recruitment is defined as any act of canvassing, enlisting, contracting, transporting, utilizing, hiring, or procuring workers for employment abroad when undertaken by non-licensee or non-holder of authority. The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) said there are about 400 to 500 cases of illegal recruitment being reported annually. (PNA)

Lopez accepts post as DENR secretary MANILA, June 21 (PNA) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ABSCBN Foundation Chairperson Gina Lopez has accepted the offer of President-elect Rodrigo Duterte as secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just talked to him just a few minutes ago, so after much introspection, I decided to accept it,â&#x20AC;? Lopez told reporters in an ambush interview on Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nagulat nga ako eh, because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not the usual choice. My stand on the environment is very clear but this is what I really believe in, na

kung alagaan ang kalikasan at kung gawin sa paraan na may pakinabang ang komunidad na doon nakatira, I am very, very sure we can eradicate poverty,â&#x20AC;? she added. Lopez, who is strongly against mining activities and coal-fired power plants, said she was â&#x20AC;&#x153;deeply honoredâ&#x20AC;? of Duterteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer in spite of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;controversiesâ&#x20AC;? arising from her decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I give you my firm commitment that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do everything that I can and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not only to protect the environment but what I really want to do is to eradicate poverty,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Tourism expert cites Boracay as leading example of progress despite infra restrictions

Incoming DA chief eyes street dwellers for green house agri program

By Azer N. Parrocha

By Lilian C. Mellejor

MANILA, June 22 (PNA) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Boracay in the Philippines is a leading example of a tourist destination in the country that has managed to evolve despite limitations in airport infrastructure, a hospitality consultancy expert said Wednesday. C9 Hotelworks founder and managing director Bill Barnett said that despite limitations in the Caticlan airport Boracay has managed to rely on the distant larger Kalibo International Airport as a mainstream point of access. Barnett lauded the upgrade of Caticlanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, which is extending its runway by 1,800 metres, enough to accommodate Airbus and Boeing single-aisle jets. This extended runway, he said, will see a larger passenger terminal added within the next two years. One key feature of the enhanced runway is the ability to land planes at night which will be a strong boost to airlift. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Boracay interests us but we also ask ourselves, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Is Boracay going sink anytime soon because thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much development?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Barnett said in an interview in Makati City. Spreading the business Barnett said that aside from relying on another airport as a point of access in Boracay, the government is in the right track of utilizing Palawan to help address overcapacity and overdevelopment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much focus on Boracay but Palawan can alleviate spread of the business. San Vicente (in Palawan) has potential,â&#x20AC;? Barnett said referring to the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flagship Tourism Enterprise Zone (TEZ). San Vicente was identified as the first flagship TEZ for its forests, islands, coves, and most specially its 14.7-kilometer shoreline, which is said to be the longest in the world. Among the components of the TEZ is the San Vicente Airport which will be the main entry point for most tourists once operational. Barnett, however, suggested there should be more hotel rooms built in San Vicente to spur airport development or simply put, â&#x20AC;&#x153;make people want to fly there.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;?Tourism numbers would be stronger if there are more tourism products created that are ready,â&#x20AC;? Barnett said. He meanwhile stressed the importance of infrastructure development to â&#x20AC;&#x153;transcend political regimes.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;?An airport takes longer than one political regime so you have to have consistency in policy. Not just after a new government comes, there will be policy and infrastructure changes. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the biggest backlog for tourism. He said that while the Philippines has had well defined tourism masterplans, the key in was to execute them correctly through public-private partnership (PPP). (PNA)

will be used to identify and locate these people and train them for livelihood particularly on the agriculture innovative technology offered by an Israeli investor. This will make them productive and self-sufficient. When asked about the possible areas, Pinol said the project does not require vast lands so it could be in any vacant lots nearer to the targeted beneficiaries. Last year, the project was discussed with the mayor, who then offered one area in Mintal for one module of the agricultural Greenhouse with a size of 272 square meters as pilot area. PiĂąol introduced to Duterte, Eyal Ben Ari, president of the Israel Chamber of Commerce and Industry and owns GurLavi Corporation, which brings the Greenhouse Israeli Agro-Innovative Technology in the Philippines. The Greenhouse Israeli Agro-Innovative Technology is a solution aimed at helping the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agricultural sector increase quality and quality of crops. Greenhouse is practiced by growers in different parts of the world and possible in all types of climatic conditions. He said it is widely practiced in Israel due to scarcity of water and land. The companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agronomist, Beatrice Cortez, said earlier that the intention is to help the agriculture industry of the country and other cities like Davao and other places in Mindanao. Cortez, a Filipina working for GurLavi said the green house and its technology model was set up in Tagaytay.

DAVAO CITY, June 19 (PNA) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The incoming Secretary of the Department of Agriculture (DA) will engage the street dwellers in highly-urbanized cities to do the green house agricultural farming to make them productive and push food sufficiency. This will also be a step towards reducing poverty incidence of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growing population. But first, incoming DA Secretary Emmanuel PiĂąol will embark on a nationwide feeding program through â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lugawanâ&#x20AC;? which is anchored on the President-elect Rodrigo Duterteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s principle: â&#x20AC;&#x153;No one must sleep hungryâ&#x20AC;?. PiĂąol said this could be a venue to develop a data base of people, who have become unproductive and stay only in the streets. These people especially their children are vulnerable to insecurity. It may be recalled that Duterte as mayor of the city, has an ongoing Lugawan program at Rizal Park for street dwellers although some other people who cannot buy food go to the park to eat at sunrise and at sundown. PiĂąol said this will be copied on national scale but the targeted people will have to be registered for data base. He however clarified the program does not promote â&#x20AC;&#x153;dole out principleâ&#x20AC;?. PiĂąol in collaboration with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), targets July 6 to start the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lugawanâ&#x20AC;? in one of the public parks in Manila. According to him, the data base

Women power: from Pinay Maggie Leones to Rosa Parks to Hillary Clinton Countless personal stories of men of valor and patriotism of Filipino soldiers during World War II has been written in numerous Philippine publications, but hardly was there any story on Magdalena “Maggie” Leones, a simple Pinay who was known as the “ Lioness of Filipina agents.” During four years of Japanese rule back home, Maggie risked her life numerous times, “carrying critical intelligence data, vital radio parts and medical supplies through heavily garrisoned enemy-held territory in the Philippines. She was caught three times, but she managed to escape through her knowledge of Niponggo, (the Japanese language) which she learned when she was briefly jailed.” Magdalena Leones was born on August 19, 1920 in the highlands of Labuagan in the then sub-province of Kalinga . She was raised in a religious-oriented family, where her father, Juan A. Leones was a known Filipino missionary through the Cordillera region. “As a missionary pioneer of the United Brethren Church, Maggie’s father, Juan helped promote Christianity through the head-hunting communities of the Mountain Province, as acknowledged by Frank C. Laubach in his book “Seven Thousand Emeralds.” Her mother, on the hand, Lucia Estoista was raised by Rev, and Mrs. Kutch of the United Brethren Missionaries of the Philippines. Maggie’s religious upbringing prepared her for a life of peaceful, religious service, but on May, 1938, a few months before her eighteenth birthday, she became a deaconess to various evangelical churches in La Union and the Mountain Province.

However, by December, 1941, the Japanese Imperial soldiers landed in Northern Luzon and begun the occupation of Northern Luzon which included the enemy march to Baguio, where the American bastion in the Cordilleras forced Camp John Hay’s commander Col. John Horan to abandon the place. A year after, on August 14, 1942, she was jailed along with missionaries’ wives, and other offices at the Camp Holmes, where during their incarceration she learned Niponggo, which eventually helped her in her duties as a “special agent” with the American forces. Five months after, on December 1942 she was set free under the auspices of Rev. Karl Eschbach, a Baguio-based missionary of her church. She was awarded the U.S. military’s Silver Star award - the highest military decoration for valor. She died in Richmond, California at the age of 95. Much like Maggie Leones the “First Lady of Civil Rights,” Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat in the front section of the bus, in Montgomery, Alabama in 1955,” asserting her civil rights. In her book, “When Women Win,” author Ellen R. Malcolm stressed that from “1989 to 1974, when Golda Meir was Prime Minister of Israel she kept rising to power and breaking glass ceilings worldwide, including the rise of feminist movements in

the U.S. led by Gloria Steinem and Betty Freidan.” In her book, Malcolm further said that “in 1992, when Bill Clinton was elected to the Presidency of the United States, it also became the “Year of the Woman,” in the wake of “Anita Hill’s explosive testimony that Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas had sexually harassed her. It was in the same year when scores of women candidates were swept into various political office.”

Five months from now, in November, 2016, if Hillary Clinton, gets elected to be the first woman President of the United States, author Ellen R. Malcolm said” “it is important to have leaders who will go first, articulate a vision and chart a path for millions of people to follow.” And hopefully, that will resonate the fact that women can break the glass ceiling and can HAVE equal power as have benefitted men throughout history.

If before only negative news about the Philippines abound, now we are among those that receive praises.) He spoke lengthily about the achievements of the department under former Secretary Albert del Rosario such as overseeing the evacuation of thousands of overseas Filipino workers in the Middle East. Aquino said that as a Cabinet official, Del Rosario was hands-on, as exhibited by his visit to strife-torn Libya to ensure the safety of Filipinos there. “Si Albert [del Rosario], hindi tagapasa ng problema, siya’y taga-tugon

sa problema at minsan lampas sa inaasahan sa kanya. Hindi kailangang sabihan dahil agad siyang kumikilos at nakatutok sa kapakanan ng ating kababayan,” the President said. “Sa kabila ng pagkakaroon ng mga sakripisyo at karamdaman, ibinuhos pa rin ni Albert ang kanyang buong lakas at kakayahan para sa ating mga Boss. Kaya kay Albert, maraming-maraming salamat,” he added. (Albert del Rosario is not one who passes the burden, he responds to the problem and sometimes even exceeds expectations. He doesn’t need to be told to act on a problem because he does so on his own and is focused on the welfare of our fellow Filipinos. Despite sacrifices and illness, he devoted his energy and skills to our Bosses. So, to Albert, thank you very much.) Del Rosario, who served as DFA chief since February 24, 2011, tendered his resignation last February citing health reasons. It was under Del Rosario’s leadership that the Philippines staked its claim on disputed islands in the West Philippine Sea by filing a historic case against China. The case is pending before an arbitral tribunal at the United Nations Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, Netherlands. The decision of the arbitration tribunal is expected to be issued “within weeks,” according to reports. With seven days remaining in his term, Aquino rallied the DFA to continue implementing the reforms that have started in his administration. “Pagtibayin pa sana natin ang pagkakaisa at nawa’y itaguyod natin ang ating ambisyon: ang iwan ang bansa sa di hamak na mas magandang kalagayan kesa sa ating pinagmulan,” he said.

accounts. “On that basis we should be able to accommodate that kind of an outcome in the Great Britain,” he stressed. On Friday, the result of UK’s referendum whether it should remain or leave the 28-EU economic bloc showed that 52 percent or about 17.4 million of its population voted for Britain to leave EU. Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) expects the solid economic fundamentals and the inherent strength of the financial market will able the country to ride out the effects of Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union (EU). PSE President and Chief Executive Officer Hans B. Sicat said the outcome of the EU referendum had a negative impact on various asset

classes and currencies, including the Philippine market. Sicat said expected reaction in a British exit or “Brexit” case may prevail for the next few days as markets settle. “Medium term, however, we think that the Philippine market will not be adversely affected as it is supported by the country’s solid economic fundamentals and the inherent strength of the local financial market,” he added. The local stock barometer plunged 100.06 points or 1.29 percent to 7,629.72 on heavy sell-off on Friday. “Risk-off trades and increased volatility due to the referendum in UK triggered liquidation activities causing investors to capitalize on their gains from the recent rally,” said BDO Unibank Inc. chief market strategist Jonathan Ravelas.

intidihan eh,” he added. The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) and the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) have opposed the reimposition of the death penalty. Gascon said that the global trend was towards abolition of the death penalty. He added that it had been proven that the death penalty was not an effective deterrent to crime. Gascon said the country’s criminal justice system’s intention was to rehabilitate convicts. “Ang trend po ay para sa abolishing ng death penalty. Kada taon dumadami ang mga estado na naga-abolish nito,” Gascon said. “Sa pamamagitan ng criminal justice sytem sinasabi natin sa mga nagkasala at mga nagkamali na

kailangan silang parusahan pero sa pamamagitan na matututo sila,” he added. “Sa death penalty, wala nang pangalawang pagkakataon pa ang mga salarin at mga convicted na magbagong buhay dahil kikitilin na ang buhay nila,” Gascon said. Archbishop-emeritus Oscar Cruz has said on Balitanghali that the CBCP would also oppose Duterte’s proposal. “Siyempre po naman tututulan po namin iyan, lalo na ng CBCP. Hindi maaaring maupo lamang ang Simbahan diyan. Tatayuan iyan,” Cruz said. “Wala pong binigyan ng buhay ang estado na kahit sino kay ahindi po siya puwedeng kumuha ng buhay ng kahit sino. Iyan po ay malinaw,” he added. (MNS)

loved ones, Congresswoman Judy Chu (CA-27), CAPAC Chair said. “Our country benefits greatly from the contributions of aspiring Americans who work, go to school, start businesses, volunteer, and are integrally woven into the fabric of our society. And yet, because of our broken immigration system, millions are forced to live in fear that any day, parents could be separated from their children, or children could be deported to a country they’ve never known. That is why President Obama’s executive actions were so necessary in the wake of Congressional inaction to pass comprehensive immigration reform legislation.” The Supreme Court on Thursday delivered a heavy blow to the White House’s immigration program by remaining in place a lower court’s ruling that blocked the program. By voting 4-4, the Supreme Court on Thursday left in place a previous ruling by the 5th US Circuit Court of Appeal against US President Barack Obama’s controversial immigration executive action in 2014. Speaking at the White House, Obama called the Supreme Court’s deadlocked decision “frustration to those who seek to grow our economy and bring a rationality to our immigration system.” “The fact that the Supreme Court wasn’t able to issue a decision today doesn’t just set the system back further,” said Obama. “It takes us further from the country that we aspire to be.” Meanwhile, presumptive Demo-

cratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton called the deadlocked decision “unacceptable” and took a sharp jab at her rival in the general election Republican Donald Trump. “This decision is also a stark reminder of the harm Donald Trump would do to our families, our communities, and our country,” said Clinton in a statement. Trump had proclaimed from the very beginning of his candidacy that he would implement tougher immigration policies, pledging to deport millions of illegal immigrants and to build a wall along US-Mexico border. In 2014, Obama resorted to his executive authority to circumvent Congress and pushed forward immigration reforms by seeking to provide as many as 5 million illegal immigrants with work permit while shielding the majority of them from deportation. This immediately sparked an outcry among Republicans, calling the action an illegal executive overreach. In its defense, the White House previously said the Supreme Court and Congress had made clear that “the federal government can set priorities in enforcing our immigration laws.” The first phase of Obama’s executive action on immigration reform was supposed to start taking effect in February last year. As a result, young immigrants would be protected from deportation if they were brought to the US soil illegally as children.

Stated income trying to slowly come back in to the mix of mortgage loans Lenders have been finding ways to make it easy for homebuyers with challenging credit scores, recent bankruptcies, foreclosures, mortgage late etc. to borrow again. And they have been successful in coming out with new innovative programs to fit their needs. Will the consumers pay higher rates and fees for their unfortunate financial credit issues, of course! A lot of professional home flippers made a ton of money using these so called “Hard Money Lenders” these past few years flipping homes paying rates as high as 8-9% short term and making 30-45% profit on their investments. The key is to be able to know that these high rate loans will have to be short term. Don’t use them if you don’t have an exit strategy within a year or less. The interest alone will eat up your equity in a few years and you will drown and throw away good money. These loans have to be labeled “Non Qualified Mortgage” by these lenders due to the lending guideline set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as far as making loans for home buyers occupying the property and getting a home owner occupied loans. These Non-QM loans will mainly favor investment properties and foreign home buyers. Here are some of the very flexible guidelines that you could say mirrored the so called “Stated Income” loan that was once the only type of loan that was being offered: Loan to value to 85% with credit scores as low as 500. 2 year seasoning on bankruptcy, foreclosure, short sale & deed in lieu ( compared to 4-7 on conventional and government financing) Alternative income documenta-

tion, such as personal or business bank statements for 24 months in lieu of tax returns for self employed borrowers. Non warrantable condos up to 80% loan to value. ( meaning condos with litigation or high ratio of rental occupancy ) Mixed used property, commercial property, properties with poor conditions. No seasoning requirement when borrower returns back to work after an extended period of time. 30% equity is not required on departure properties to show as rental income. Home borrowers are not all flocking to get these types of loans, but now with the housing market sort of taking a short breather, sellers are more willing to review offers that are not all cash or with huge down payments. These types of program will mainly benefit self employed borrowers with a down payment to start to consider short term loan options to buy a house. These aren’t the same products as the so-called “liar loans” that were pervasive before the housing bust. Instead, the loans are going to borrowers such as small business owners or investors buying properties they intend to rent who can demonstrate an ability to repay, verifiable through bank or brokerage statements. Lenders said they look for enough assets

to pay six to 12 months of payments, while also demanding high down payments to reduce the chance of default. The Dodd-Frank law said that, for all owner-occupied mortgages made in the United States, lenders must make sure the borrower has the capacity to repay, or face enforcement from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau as well as consumer claims in court, where lenders could be liable for up to three years of finance charges and fees. Ability-to-repay rules apply only to mortgages for people who will live in the house. That means there is potential for abuse if borrowers apply for the mortgages saying they’ll rent out the property when in fact they intend to live there. Because these kinds of loans are not subject to ability-to-repay rules and require less documentation,

borrowers could be talked into taking on mortgages they cannot afford, a lender at a large bank said. The law, and the CFPB’S rules on the matter, will likely prevent lenders from re-embracing the worst varieties of stated income loans during the bubble years, such as so-called “ninja” loans, a near-acronym for “no income, no job or assets.” Therefore, there is still a thick wall to avoid a repeat of the recent mortgage fall out we all experienced. Mortgage rates are really low and homeowners with rates over 4% should consider a lower rate now before the Feds decide to man up and raise rates.

Undocumented victims of Orlando By Jorge Rivas and Rafa Fernandez De Castro Fusion News Report

ORLANDO, Jun 17, 2016 — Victor is recovering in an Orlando hospital room after being shot twice during the Pulse massacre last Saturday night. The 24-year-old Salvadoran is being consoled by three friends at his bedside, but as an undocumented man with no relatives nearby and no idea when his injuries will allow him to return to work, he’s worried about how he’s going to pay for the hospital bills—and what will happen to him if he can’t. Victor, whose name has been changed to protect his identity, is one of two undocumented immigrants who were shot and survived during the nightclub attack. The other, a 33-year-old Mexican named Javier, is recovering in the hospital

and reportedly in stable condition despite taking a bullet to the abdomen. A third undocumented man, a 31-year-old Mexican, passed away earlier this week. He was one of three Mexicans killed in the attack, and although his identity has been released, his immigration status has not, which is why we are not publishing his name. It’s unknown if there were any other undocumented immigrants among the 100-plus victims who were killed or injured during the Pulse shooting. Why does immigration status matter at all in this instance? Because victims without legal status in the United States are now facing a whole additional set of challenges in the wake of the horrible mass-shooting.

Washington exhibit honors Filipina suffragists

WASHINGTON, D.C. — “It is worth noting that Philippine society has always been blessed with strong and powerful women who shape the course of our history. Filipinas are active in diverse fields, pouring their talents, skill, and passion into many areas of human endeavor. It is therefore no wonder that the Philippine Suffrage Movement in the early 1900s was composed mainly of Filipinas who were able to carve an identity, and a mission, that were separate from those of the influential men in their lives.” Thus remarked Minister Patrick Chuasoto, Deputy Chief of Mission of the Philippine Embassy, as he formally opened the exhibit “The Washington Home of the Philippine Suffrage Movement” on 16 June 2016 at the Embassy’s Romulo Hall. “The Washington Home of the Philippine Suffrage Movement” stems from the research of husband-and-wife team Erwin Tiongson and Titchie Carandang-Tiongson, who also spearheaded the ongoing project Philippines on the Potomac or POPDC. It was an initiative of Madam Maria Victoria Cuisia, wife of Philippine Ambassador to the United States Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. Another remarkable Filipina, Monique Bascon, lent her artistic talent as exhibit designer. The exhibit focuses on the lives of Mercedes Tiongson Sandiko, Clemencia Lopez, Sofia de Veyra, Pura Villanueva Kalaw, Aurora Quezon, Ines Villa Gonzalez and Pilar Hidalgo Lim, who pursued their advocacy for the extension of suffrage to Filipino women during

their stay in the United States in the early part of the 20thcentury. “The exhibit celebrates a group of extraordinary women and their ties to Washington. And coming so soon after the last Philippine elections, this exhibit, we hope, serves to remind us that suffrage rights have been hard won through the struggles of many people who came before us. And by coincidence, that photo of the women from the Philippines at the White House, around which the exhibit is organized, was taken almost exactly 94 years ago today,” explained Erwin and Titchie Tiongson. “The exhibit draws materials from our Philippines on the Potomac Project. Discovering all these fascinating women and their ties to our adopted DC home has been a deeply rewarding experience. And the process of discovery has been made so much easier thanks to the generosity of so many people who shared memorabilia, photos, and family stories,” the Tiongson couple added. The Embassy is hosting the week-long exhibit in line with its Gender and Development (GAD) program and the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of Philippines-US diplomatic relations. “We must remember that while diplomatic relations between our two countries turn only 70 years old this year, the ties that bind our nations have existed for over a century. Moving forward entails being open to outside partnerships and at the same time harnessing the cooperation of your own people to be united in pursuit of common

goals. The Philippine Suffrage Movement had its own allies and supporters here at the US capital and we similarly honor their role in the Movement’s eventual success,” the Deputy Chief of Mission emphasized. The Movement triumphed as the right of suffrage was extended to Filipino women on 30 April 1937. Almost eight months later, on 14 December 1937, the Philippines held the first general election in which Filipino women were allowed to vote and run for public office. “It truly takes a village to put together an exhibit. We are grateful to the Philippine Embassy,

the Public Diplomacy Office, the Gender and Development Program and of course, Mrs. Cuisia, for the wonderful opportunity to share our discoveries with the Filipino- American community,” the Tiongsons concluded. Ms. Mitzi Pickard, President of the Philippine Arts, Letters and Media Council (PALM), served as master of ceremonies at the exhibit launch. Members of the public may view the “The Washington Home of the Philippine Suffrage Movement” at the Romulo Hall until 12:00 p.m.of Thursday, 23 June 2016, excluding Saturday and Sunday.

Incoming Aggie Sec. Pinol shows glimpse of future productivity After the smoke has cleared up on the May 9 general elections in the Philippines, an air of hope has pervaded the political arena with more than 30 percent of the more 45 million qualified voters breathing an air of relief for a polical exercise which they have waited for so long. The last Philippine elections tallied more than 54 million who registered to be able to exercise their Divine Right which the Commission on Elections claimed to be within their target of Filipinos who will register. This, so far, the electoral body said is the largest number of registered voters the Philippines’ has ever had.so far. On the Overseas Absentee Voter (OAV) front a total of 432,706 of the registered 1,376,067 exercised their right which is 40 percent of the total. The turn out of voters, Comelec officials noted, is “the second highest record since the poll body has implemented overseas voting in 2004 in 82 posts worldwide”. There were only 737,759 voters in 2013 and of that figure, only 113,209 cast their ballots to register a low turnout of 15.35 percent. Voter turnout in 2010 presidential polls was higher at 26 percent who made their presence felt. The Philippine Consulate General in Los Angeles leads the list of US posts with 55,000 voters, followed by San Francisco with 46,831 and Washington, DC with 28,000. The 2016 national and local elections was marked by passion from all levels of society which also left a deep cut and divisions among personalities, parties, and platforms. In the end, the will of the Filipino electorate reigned supreme. In California, the election heat refuses to subside. Even before the new administration finally takes

reins of the government the business and professional sectors had the opportunity to see a glimpse of what lies ahead in the new dispensation in the agriculture sector. Through the initiative of the Filipino American Chamber of Commerce of Orange County and one of its board members, Emma Tiebens of Tiebens Media, International and Monetized Meet Up Group, an avenue was provided for interested parties aching to be informed of what lies ahead in the Philippine political horizon. They were not disappointed as the speaker for the night, newly designated Secretary of Agriculture Emmanuel “Manny” Pinol gave the audience a substantial preview of what’s ahead in his portfolio considered one of the most important posts in the Philippine bureacratic make up. His credential, many observed, qualifies him to handle such a delicate position that takes charge of ensuring that millions of Filipinos do not sleep with empty stomachs and still have some money to spare. Change in the agricultural sector was his message throughout the proceedings. A former media man, and author of a book entitled “Feeding Millions-President Duterte’s Food Security Blueprint”, Secretary Pinol is most of all a “practicing farmer” who reads the agriculture landscape like a palm of his hands. In the animated exchange of ideas, the presumptive Secretary outlined his program on recouping the once

Caregivers: are you receiving overtime pay? Under California law most caregivers must be paid overtime compensation when working 24-hour shifts. With the increase in California’s minimum wage to $10 an hour on January 1, 2016, that means a 24hour caregiver must be paid $315 a day to comply with the current law. Many caregivers are working under a day rate or monthly salary. A day rate or monthly salary does not compensate for the overtime hours worked and results in a substantial unpaid overtime claim for the caregiver. Oftentimes, employers attempt to avoid liability by claiming the caregiver is an “independent contractor.” In most circumstances, this argument will fail as typically employers maintain significant control over the caregiver such that that California law will find the caregiver to be an employee. This change in the overtime rules for caregivers became effective on January 1, 2014, when the Domestic Worker Bill of Rights (DWBR) became law. Previously, employees who qualified as “personal attendants,” including caregivers, nannies and babysitters who worked in private households, were The DWBR eliminated the overtime exemption for personal attendants and provides that personal attendants, “shall not be employed more than nine hours in any workday or more than 45 hours in any workweek unless the employee receives one and one-half

times the employee’s regular rate of pay for all hours worked over nine hours in any workday and for all hours worked more than 45 hours in the workweek.” So now caregivers, nannies and babysitters (with limited exceptions) must be paid overtime compensation. Under Labor Code § 1194, domestic workers are not only able to recover their unpaid overtime in a civil action, but they also may recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. California law also provides interest and penalties for workers who are not properly paid overtime compensation. If you are working as a caregiver who is not paid overtime when working more than nine hours a day or 45 hours a week, you should consult with an attorney to discuss your rights under this law. With all the penalties, interest and attorneys fees allowed, claims often exceed $100,000 for 24-hour employees working just over 1 year.

World’s first passenger drone may fly over Nevada this year LOS ANGELES, June 20 (PNA/Xinhua) – The world’s first drone capable of autonomously carrying a person may test-fly in Nevada later this year, the United States, Chinese Aerial technology company EHang Holdings Limited told Xinhua on Sunday. The Chinese company based in China’s southern province of Guangdong and the state of Nevada are trying to make this happen by moving forward with testing the EHang 184 Autonomous Aerial Vehicle, the first drone to offer autonomous human flight over short-to-medium distances. The state’s Institute for Autonomous Systems(NIAS) has already given the China’s company permission to test fly the drone. Ehang is now working closely with NIAS over the coming months to work through the UAS flight requirements. “We will help guide EHang through the FAA regulatory process with the ultimate goal of achieving safe flight,” Tom Wilczek, an Aerospace and Defense Industry Specialist of the Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED) told Xinhua early this month. He said that the program would take place at Nevada’s FAA-approved test site, one of six such drone-testing locations across the the United States. This partnership “is a big step for EHang 184 to move forward to government regulatory approval of the unprecedented innovation in US and globally, which will lay the foundation for its commercialization and building up the aerial transportation ecosystem in the future”, Huazhi Hu, Founder and CEO of EHang said in a statement. The electrically powered Ehang 184, released at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this January, can carry a single passenger weighing up to 100 kg for a 23-minute flight at sea level at a speed of 100 km per hour, the company said.

Duterte’s economic managers vow to Incoming DA chief, a Manila Bulletin colleague Incoming Department It will be recalled that bring social peace, nurture Filipinos of Agriculture Secretary when President Benigno By Lilian C. Mellejor

DAVAO CITY, June 20 (PNA) – The economic managers of the incoming administration of President-elect Rodrigo Duterte vowed to transform the national economy that will bring not only social peace but also communities that will nurture the Filipino people in the next six years. Incoming Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez said this can be pursued through accomplishing the 10-point socio-economic program of the Duterte administration that were presented to the business sector during the first day of the two-day Economic Forum dubbed: “Sulong Pilipinas” at the SMX Convention Center on Monday. To push the 10-point agenda, which emphasizes the need to maintain accelerated economic growth broadly shared by the Filipino people, Dominguez said the new administration will move away from the chronic underspending seen the past few years. This means investing on infrastructure from modernizing ports to improving logistical spine to ensuring reliable and cheap power for all the islands, and investing more heavily in building up the nation’s human capital that include more extensive budgetary outlays for education and public health. Dominguez pointed to investing projects in rural areas seeing to it that regions outside of the mega Manila will be given a fair treatment in fulfilling big ticket and small and medium projects. He said the new administration will jumpstart building infrastructure outside of mega Manila to push rural development agenda. Under the current situation, Dominguez bared that 80 percent of projects lodged with the Public Private Partnership Center are located in and around Metro Manila. He said there needs to be pro-active action from the local government units to push projects. “We have to encourage the local governments to invest. There must be a paradigm shift,” he said. Dominguez said they also need to generate more job opportunities in the countryside by modernizing agriculture and encouraging agribusinesses to generate higher value added products. “Farming should no longer be the poverty trap it has been for generations,” he said. Tax systems Speaking before an estimated 300 participants from business sector nationwide, Dominguez said also laid down what to expect under the new administration such as a review of the tax system by initially updating the income tax brackets and eventually to lowering corporate and individual tax rates. “We wish to see our workers having more disposable income to do as they wish. Our corporate tax rates will be adjusted to be competitive with the rest of the region to make our economy more competitive for investments. We hope to broaden the tax base even more to compensate for lower rates,” he said. He said there are some suggestions for raising the VAT rates to offset reduction of individual and corporate tax levels. “We submit this matter for your consideration and suggestions,” Dominguez assured the business leaders. The review of tax system is part of the new administration of push forward a bureaucratic reform.

Manny Piñol has lots of bright ideas to help turn around the moribund agriculture business in the Philippines. Piñol is in the United States this week to explore possibilities of acquiring farm machineries on long term loans to maximize rice production. During a press conference in Irvine’s University Research Park, arranged and hosted by the Filipino American Chamber of Commerce of Orange, Piñol disclosed that his number one priority once he assumes his post is to make sure that food will be available and affordable for all Filipinos He also vowed to stop the rampant corruption in the Department of Agriculture to ensure that government funds intended for farm workers will not be pocketed by corrupt officials and employees in the department. Piñol told members of the Fil-Am Chamber that among other things he also intends to develop the country’s fisheries, and aquatic resources, and make the Philippines rice-sufficient and to revive the once flourishing copra and abaca industries. He said he would encourage farm workers, with ample government support and funding, to maximize farm production. The Philippines has a total agricultural land area of 13 million hectares. In spite of this vast land area, however, the country sadly and shamefully continues to import rice from other countries to meet the growing demand of its expanding population.

Aquino became president, he promised to make Philippines self-sufficient. Well, that has yet to happen. Piñol said he would look into the dying abaca and copra business in the country. He said it is also sad that although we have the largest coconut plantation in the world, the country’s copra export business is on the brink of being extinct. He said the same can be said of the abaca industry in the Philippines. Piñol told his audience that the Philippines is one of only two countries in the world that export abaca. The other country, he said, is Ecuador. Piñol was loudly applauded by his audience when he gave assurance and swore that he will not be corrupted by anyone in his desire to help farmers and fishermen improve their lives as well as to help the country become rice sufficient in the future. I know Piñol will make good on his promise to change the current system in the Department of Agriculture. In my long years of working with Piñol at the Manila Bulletin as beat reporters, I found him to be an honest and down-to-earth person with a big heart, ready to help anyone who needs assistance. Good luck Manny or should I now say Secretary Piñol. Millions of Filipinos are now waiting and watching if President elect Digong Duterte will deliver his promise of change and hope for all Filipinos for a better Philippines in the years to come.

MANILA, June 20 (PNA) – The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) cited on Monday the agency’s milestones in providing social protection for the past six years since July 2010 under the administration of President Benigno S. Aquino III. Outgoing DSWD Secretary Corazon J. Soliman said in a press briefing that her Department made significant gains in prioritizing social protection agenda which include the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), Sustainable Livelihood Program (SLP), and the Kapit-Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan-Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (KALAHI-CIDSS). According to Secretary Soliman, these core poverty reduction programs are complementing each other to uplift the lives of the vulnerable in the society, which is part of the DSWD’s vision and mission. “The Department was able to harmonize the implementation of the core poverty reduction programs to more effectively reach and assist intended beneficiaries,” she said. She added that through the convergence strategy, the DSWD has been involved in empowering and developing the capacities of program beneficiaries toward resilience. She noted that from only 800,000 household beneficiaries previously, there are now 4,409,819 million Pantawid Pamilya households benefiting from the 4Ps. She said that from these beneficiaries, about 144,895 have been able to develop their capacities as parent-leaders from just being shy and not so participative in their communities. In addition, some 491,992 household beneficiaries have emerged as community volunteers in their communities in the creation of sub-projects that can help them uplift their lives and address their most immediate concerns. Secretary Soliman also talked about SLP and shared how the marginalized beneficiaries’ lives have been transformed through it by

availing themselves of employment opportunities and getting interest-free loans. She also looked back at how the 4Ps was enhanced to fit it with the modernized K-12 Program wherein the ages of children beneficiaries have been increased from the previous 0 to 14 years up to 18 years. She also mentioned how the DSWD implemented the program in cooperation with the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Department of Health (DOH). She also said that poor family-beneficiaries of 4Ps now have children in college or have actually finished their courses, some with honors, through DSWD’s partnership with the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). According to the DSWD Chief, one of the recent accomplishments of the Department was its signing of the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of the law ensuring that the government and private entities are incentivize to hire persons with disabilities (PWDs). She said that the age of indigent senior citizens qualified to receive social pension amounting to P500 a month has been lowered from 77 to 60 years. She also said that aside from the old vulnerable sectors, they also initiated various programs for Children in Conflict with the Law (CICL) through the Juvenile Justice Welfare council. The National Youth Commission (NYC) under the DSWD has also been empowered into delivering Youth Development Sessions (YDS) as counterpart of the Family Development Sessions (FDS) among 4Ps parents to ensure that the youth will know the consequences of early pregnancy and drug addiction that can harm their future. Soliman also discussed how the DSWD is protecting the vulnerable sectors against hazards and sudden loss of income, and improving people’s capacity to manage risks by delivering services under its Crisis Intervention Unit.

Dee observed that Celis is not yet used to doing kissing scenes. “Ano siya, hindi siya sanay. Sobrang hindi siya sanay. Naiintindihan ko naman. Sabi niya parang lumaki siya at saka tumanda siya sa business na hindi naman siya romantic, so hindi siya sanay sa ganoon,” he said. “Inaasar na siya ng mga staff kasi hindi niya magawa,” he added. “Pero ako,

sabi ko, I will just stay there, hindi kita pagtatawanan. I will be your supporter, I will be your man to lean on. Kasi ‘yung ganoon, sensitive ‘yung ganoong eksena.” “I Love You To Death” tells the story of a woman (Celis) whose birthday wish is to find a man who is madly in love with her.

Charice to launch album soon Singer Charice will soon release her newest album titled “Catharsis”. “When they hear it, it’s like a release. When you hear my song—either happy or sad—it’s like a release of your emotions. The song has a catharsis feeling to it,” she explained as she narrated the story behind the album. When asked where she got inspiration for her album, the singer replied: “Different, actually. The album itself, hindi lang siya about sa akin. Like everywhere I go, when I look at a certain person, fini-figure out ko kung ano ang emotion niya, ang feeling niya.” “So ang para sa akin, gusto ko sumulat ng kanta na makaka-relate sila at maiisip nila na ‘yun ang anthem ng buhay nila.

Cars 911, other dealers make smart moves in bullish auto market (NewsUSA) - Indications are rosy for U.S. auto sales now that the recession is far in the rearview mirror. According to analysts – who are bullish on the industry – new vehicle sales will hit their highest level since 2006, as consumers look to replace aging cars and trucks. In fact, estimated sales are expected to land somewhere between 16 million and 16.5 million, near pre-recession levels, which would mean an increase of around 5.8 percent. The takeaway? Automakers can afford to be cautiously optimistic about sales for the remainder of the year, but also need to understand that as growth sales slow, they will have to be diligent with their marketing and incentive offerings. Rick Baranski, director of publisher relations for U.S. Suburban Press (USSPI), maintains that the most effective auto-marketing strategies use local newspaper and targeted email to increase sales. USSPI is an advertising network of community

newspapers around the U.S. and is now a recognized leader of nationally aggregated email campaigns delivering targeted quantities of 50K and under through its eZIPs program. “Local newspapers are the primary information source used during the car-buying process,” says Baranski. “The eZIPS email program that we offer complements the print ads by reaching individuals who are most likely to be shopping for a vehicle at the moment.” Scott Slobodnik, brand manager of eZIPs, cites a case study of a dealership that sent out almost 39,000 emails at a cost of just over $3,800

using its eZIPs program. “That dealership sold 31 vehicles, for a return on investment of almost $52,000,” says Slobodnik. As a matter of perspective, the National Automobile Dealers Association estimates that the national marketing cost per vehicle sold is $644, while the eZIPs program delivers on average $250, and as little as $88. “Dealers in the program are seeing outstanding results,” adds Slobodnik. “In most cases, there are six to 12 cars being sold per 10,000 e-mails that are sent out.” With more people working and

Warning: should you trust a debt settlement company? If you are delinquent on your debts, you may be able to avoid dealing with the bill collectors for a few months but sooner or later, you will still need to face the reality of your debt problems and do something to protect yourself. For example, creditors will probably wait until you are 60 days late before they hand over your account to their internal collections department. If you’ve had a loss of income, your creditors may even tell you about their hardship program that will allow you to make lower payments at a significantly reduced interest rate. Others will close your account which means that you can no longer use your credit card until the debt is paid in full. No matter what you are offered by the creditor at this point, however, it is only temporary and will not help you if your hardship continues for longer than a few months. Once you’re 90 days late, creditors start to become more aggressive. Some creditors will turn the account over to an outside collection agency. Of course, by this time, your debts continue to snowball as the creditors continue to add interest and penalties to the original amount owed. Federal and state collection laws prohibit abusive collection tactics but the reality is that a lot of bill collectors do not follow these laws and will make your life miserable by harassing you for payment. If the creditor decides that you probably will not pay back the debt, they may write it off their books and report the account as a “charge off” to the credit bureaus. To recoup the creditor’s losses, the account can then be sold to a third-party collection agency who buys the account for a fraction of the

original amount owed. At this point in the collection process, you may be able to negotiate a drastic reduction of the debt amount and pay the creditor 20-50% of the amount owed. Should you do it yourself, hire a lawyer or is hiring a debt settlement company a good idea? If you don’t feel confident dealing with creditors yourself, you may be tempted to hire a debt settlement company to avoid the expense of hiring an attorney. Don’t do it! Remember that a debt settlement company cannot legally represent you if you are sued and thus, they cannot protect your legal rights. Also keep in mind that some creditors will flat out inform you that they refuse to work with a debt settlement company and if this happens, that means you leave them no other option but to file a lawsuit against you! I have seen a lot of unscrupulous debt settlement companies who misrepresent their services to the public and offer false hopes to unsuspecting consumers who are desperate for a solution. A lot of these debt settlement companies do not clearly explain to you how their debt settlement program works before they ask you to sign a contract with them. Their advertising sounds so good and once you call them, they tell you nothing but lies just to suck you in. They do not tell you anything about the potential downfalls of hiring

them and often make big promises that they cannot deliver. Be careful in hiring a debt settlement company or you may end up in a worse situation with your credit with no solution to your debt problems. If you are in debt and think debt settlement or filing bankruptcy may be a solution for you, we are here to help you figure out your best option.

a solution that’s right for you. We have offices in Glendale, Cerritos and Valencia. (None of the information herein is intended to give legal advice for any specific situation. Atty.

Tourism spending in PHL doubles in 5 years to PHP306-B By Azer N. Parrocha

MANILA, June 20 (PNA) – Tourism spending in the country has reached a new high in five years as data the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed that it has increased by 8.2 percent in 2015 from 4.3 in 2010, reaching PHP306.6-billion for 2015. Department of Tourism (DOT) Secretary Ramon R. Jimenez, Jr. attributed this growth to the positive outlook of the industry, the harmonious public and private partnership and a good marketing campaign. DOT’s “It’s More Fun in the Philippines” slogan has been recognized worldwide, especially in social media. Jimenez said that all these efforts combined with strong government support “allowed tourism to reach the economic heights where it is today”. “The business is good, you only have to keep the momentum going,” Jimenez reiterated. The same report showed that tourism industries have generated jobs for about 4.98 million people, with the passenger transport sector having 36 percent and accommodation and food beverage sector

with 34.8 percent of total employment. Foreign tourist arrivals was third among the biggest export items of the country in 2015, giving tourism an 8.2 percent share of total exports of goods and services of the Philippines. Tourism is also third place in terms of top gross domestic product (GDP) growth generators, trailing behind real estate in second place and the trade industry in first place. Jimenez meanwhile assured that to maintain the industry’s growth, the National Tourism Development Plan (NTDP) 2016-2022 is being finalized for presentation to the current and later to the next administration for approval. He said that the plan should help sustain the strong first quarter growth in tourist arrivals and help the country meet its target of 6.5-million tourists by yearend. Data from the DOT showed that the Philippines acquired a total of 2.073 million visitors from January-April, which registered another milestone in the history of the industry by surpassing the two-millionth mark in just four months.

2016 Outlander Sport awarded NEMPA Yankee value award for second consecutive year CYPRESS, Calif., June 6, 2016 – Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) today announced the 2016 Outlander Sport has once again been recognized by the New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA) and awarded the Yankee Value Award for the second consecutive year. Outlander Alex Jacinto Sport was honored at NEMPA’s annual awards dinner in Cambridge, Mass. where the 2016 Winter Vehicle Awards were presented. “Outlander Sport continues to prove why it’s our sales leader,” said Don Swearingen, executive vice president and chief operating officer, MMNA. “Reliability, quality, competitive pricing and cost of ownership are at the core of Outlander Sport; to be recognized for providing exemplary value in such a competitive CUV segment proves Mitsubishi is providing consumers with what they

not only want, but need.” The Yankee Value Award is presented to the vehicle that best exemplifies the hardy New England spirit of understated perseverance – and NEMPA takes its Yankee heritage seriously. To consider a vehicle for the Yankee Value Award the membership must be impressed with the vehicle as a “value proposition.” That rings true with the 2016 Outlander Sport, a vehicle that offers a variety or features and a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty that continues to grab consumers attention in the competitive crossover segment. Earlier, the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander, recognized for having over 100 improvements as compared to the 2015 model-year, has been rated third in Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com list of 10 Most Affordable Three-Row Vehicles of 2016. Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com editors highlight the 10

2016 Nissan Frontier named top mid-size truck in J.D. Power 2016 Initial Quality Study (IQS) N A S H VILLE, Tenn. – The 2016 Nissan Frontier has been recognized as the top midsize truck in the J.D. Power 2016 Initial Quality Study Manuel Lava (IQS), the industry benchmark for new vehicle quality. Additionally, the Nissan brand jumped 10 spots in the study, bringing it to 10th position, sixth among non-premium brands and above the overall industry average. IQS, now in its 30th year, examines problems experienced by vehicle owners during the first 90 days of ownership. Initial quality is determined by the number of problems experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100), with a lower score reflecting higher quality. “Earning the top spot among vehicles in the extremely competitive mid-size truck segment is an immense point of pride for us,” said Dan Mohnke, vice president, Chief Marketing Manager and Marketing Operations, Nissan North America, Inc. “For our brand to jump 10 spots in the industry is an amazing feat. This recognition is a testament to the incredibly skilled men and women at our manufacturing and engineering facilities around the world.” If you have been desiring to own a new Nissan vehicle, come down to Nissan Mission Hills and check out our kababayan Manuel Lava of Nissan Mission Hills.

new 2016 model-year affordable vehicles that can seat seven or eight passengers, perfect for families on a budget.
