At around 3 in the afternoon, Gilbert Paborada, 47, chairman of Pangalasag (Indigenous Shield), was about to alight from a motorela (public tricycle) when he was shot at by two motorcycle-riding men, according to the initial data gathered by the Rural Missionaries of the Philippines (RMP)-Northern Mindanao Region (NMR).

Video footage proof of BIR’s extortion DAVAO City––A businessman-inventor insisted that a video footage could prove that he was a victim of extortion by a Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) legal officer assigned at the regional office here.

“There was indeed a crime of bribery extortion. The BIR lawyer personally accepted the money he asked from me. Actual video footage can prove it,” Edgar Delibo, also known as Dok Ed, said as his response to allegations that the reported bribe money was just planted.

He said lawyer Roderick Orallo was the one who invited him to be at the Apo View Hotel on September 27, 2012 and to bring the P50,000 compromise money to settle the case the BIR filed against him.

Delibo said that the other issues raised against me and the company will be answered squarely in a proper forum. I will reveal more vital information during the trial,” he said, adding he was already expecting the filing of counter cases like perjury and others as a form of revenge against him.

Delibo said his being an expert in alternative medicine was not only conferred to him overnight.

“I have legitimately undergone studies as Doctor of Ministry in Alternative Medicine at the Open Seminary, USA, and even in Chinese Alternative Medicine at Zhongfang Red Cross International in China,” he explained after he was accused of making it appear to be equipped with medical knowledge in alternative medicine.

Delibo said he also never claimed to be a medical doctor because he was reportedly proud to be an alternative medicine doctor.

He said as a businessman, he was reportedly legally operating, running his business with updated permits from the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), BIR and local government units (LGUs).

“As to my inventions, I have secured appropriate licenses from the Food and Drugs Administration,” he said.

The BIR legal officer denied the accusations of Delibo.

On Tuesday, the BIR exec was out on bail.

Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 16 Judge Emmanuel Carpio granted the petition for bail filed by lawyer Caesar Europa, one of the counsels of the accused lawyer on Friday, September 28.

The court allowed BIR lawyer Roderick Orallo to post a P100,000 bail, the maximum for robbery extortion as provided by DOJ Circular No. 89 (The 2000 Bond Guide).

Solar energy eyed in 12 far-flung villages COTABATO City––The Maguindanao government will soon provide solar-powered street lights to dozens of far-flung villages in the province with Hill 224 in Datu Unsay town as the first beneficiary.

The solar lighting project in the village is in preparation for the construction of a school building in the area upon the order of Maguindanao Governor Esmael “Toto” Mangudadatu. Asim said other villages which will soon have solar-powered lighting are Barangays Poblacion, South Upi; Pura in Datu Blah Sinsuat; Poblacion, Sibuto and Baka in Datu Odin Sinsuat; Poblacion Barira, Poblacion Buldon; Bongo island in Parang; Poblacion in mother and Northern Kabuntalan; and in Salman, Ampatuan.

Black and White Movement defends its Party List Applic THE CIVIL society group Black and White Movement has defended its camp from a leftist group’s appeal that urged the Movement to withdraw its application for accreditation as a Regional Political Party participating in the 2013 Party List election.

“You do not have to be a leftist to qualify in the Party List system and fight for the marginalized,” the Black and White Movement said in a statement expressing its right to participate in the election.

This came in the heels of Kontra Daya’s claim that Black and White Movement’s close alliance with President Noynoy Aquino makes a mockery of the party list system.

Kontra Daya is led by Fr. Joe Dizon, a close associate of the Bayan coalition and Bayan Muna Party

List, a group critical of the Aquino government.

The Black and White Movement also stood up for its nominees like Leah Navarro, who currently sits as a Movie and Television Classification Board (MTRCB) member and the group’s first nominee, by stressing that her position which is soon to end on September 30 will not be a conflict with the group’s application for accreditation.

“We have meticulously complied with the requirements for a Regional Political Party [at the National Capital Region] participating in the Party List system. All of our nominees belong to the sectors being represented. And none of them are former politicians.

None of them are associated with any business interest or political

clan,” the group said.

Women, youth, and urban poor are the sectors specifically identified by the Party List law as marginalized.

Since its inception in 2005 as a civil society group, the Black and White Movement has always worked with the urban poor sector in performing mass actions against the excesses of the GMA regime.

It is a strong advocate of women’s rights and issues and it teams up with its youth counterpart Black and White Youth Movement for the social development of the younger generation.

“If elected, we are committed to sponsor and support legislation that will protect and advance the interests of the sectors we represent,” the civil society group added.

Singapore investing P105m in Surigao mining A SINGAPORE-based firm is investing P105 million in MRC Surigao Mines Inc. In a disclosure with the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE), MRC Allied Inc., MRC Sur i g a o M i n e s’ m ot h er company, said its mining unit will issue n e w s h are s to Mi n -

“The consideration for the transaction is US$ 2.5 million or P105 million, which is equivalent to 60

In it i a l p ay m e nt for the transaction will be on Nov. 15, 2012 and the balance would be after three months, it said, but there is no information on how much the initial payment would be.

“ The trans ac t ion is expected to result in profitability for the Company on its first year of operation, thus the shares of the Company is expected to increase in value as a result of this,” it said.

M RC A l l i e d i s a l s o selling 20 percent stake to a still undisclosed local firm that will be “cho-

sen by the Company and MMIH.” M RC A l l i e d e ar l i e r signed an operations agreements for 2,059.27 hectares of prospective gold and copper reserve in Marihatag, Surgiao del Sur and 3,718.41 hectares of mining area in Surigao del Sur. Last year, it announced

plans to establish a gold processing plant in San Miguel, Surigao del Sur after inking an agreement with the Upper San Miguel Manob o Sectoral Tribe Council, which holds the priority rights over the development of 20,000 hectares of mineral-rich area in Surigao del Sur.

Your biggest bank account Speaking Out Ignacio Bunye

Mobile banking Concluded from yesterday I AM SURE THAT MOST OF US are aware that the Philippines has been considered a “trailblazer” in mobile technology.

We are proud of the fact that we have been repeatedly recognized as the “Texting Capital of the World,” even during an earlier time when mobile phones were just emerging as the new “it” thing.

“People in the Philippines have pioneered in mobile technology years and years before,” said Dr. Maura O’ Neill, United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Chief Innovation Officer and Senior Counselor to the Administrator.

In a meeting hosted by Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, USAID recently got together with BPI-Globe BanKo, G-Xchange, and Smart Communications to push further the frontiers of mobile banking. This will be through the implementation of the Scaling Innovations in Mobile Money (SIMM) Project.

O’Neill stressed that mobile technology, of which the Philippines is a trailblazer, is actually “a safe and stable way to create a new financial system.”

Over the past few years, the USAID has worked extensively with mobile network operators Globe and Smart. It is planning to expand cooperation to deepen financial inclusion in the country through technological innovations.

The USAID noted that while most mobile banking deployments around the world provide a new delivery channel to existing bank clients, transformative models like the SIMM Project aspire to integrate unbanked populations into the formal financial sector.

According to the USAID, financial services provide the means for the poor and the unbanked to build assets, better withstand shocks, and participate more broadly in the formal economy.

THINK a minute.

Imagine t hat e ver y morning somebody put $86,400 in your bank account. Then, every night whatever you didn’t spend that day was taken out of your account and thrown away. Wouldn’t you take out every cent of your $86,400 and spend it every day? So none of it would be wasted or thrown away.

Did you know that you really have a bank account just like that one? It’s called TIME. Ever y morning our time bank gives you and me 86,400 seconds. Then, every night the time we did not use that day is gone.

So we must use it all up or lose the time each day we do not spend well. You use it or lose it. Then what are the best bargains and deals in life which are worth our

Would you like to know the two best investments of your time that will bring you real success and wealth in your life?

The first smart investment of your time is people.

Capitol wants Moreno out

GOV. Oscar Moreno of Misamis Oriental officially filed certificate of candidacy yesterday at the City Comelec office. Moreno and his drumbeaters reportedly hired truckload of people to join him at the Comelec.

There were also reports that Moreno shells out P100.00 to each individual who joined his entourage. Others alleged that the media who covered the event were rewarded P1,000.00 Cris Diaz each. It was not surprising ‘though as candidates want to make it appear that people are supporting their election bid. Generally, people sneer at this superficiality.

Even the Commission on Elections (Comelec) mocked MOBILE | page 3 this hypocrisy. Comelec Chair Sixto Brillantes discouraged this fanfare of political jesters whose aim is only to attract disinterested residents.

However, given all those elaborations, observers were surprise with the minuscule crowd Moreno was www.mindanaodailybalita.com able to muster.

Capitol workers accused Moreno of cash advancing funds intended for salaries and wages that could be one of the reasons of delays in payment of payroll money. Judging from yesterday’s fanfare, Moreno could have spent a lot.

For instance, a truckload from Gitagum was moving its way to Cagayan de Oro just as Moreno was filing his certificate of candidacy at the local election office.

Despite their frustration, Capitol workers are happy of seeing Moreno go. They have long wanted Moreno to be out of provincial Capitol. Since Moreno has filed his certificate of candidacy to run for Mayor in Cagayan de Oro, Capitol expects Moreno to resign. Nonetheless, some are suspecting Moreno to hold on to his post until elections day.

They contend that Moreno would exploit the resources of Capitol to his advantage in mounting election campaign in Cagayan de Oro. Whether Moreno could be liable that would lead to disqualification to run for an elective post in this instant case is a $64 question. Being with the Liberal Party, Moreno believed he has the backing of the administration in whatever he does. In the end, the people of Cagayan de Oro will judge him after all.

Erratum: This is to rectify yesterday’s issue. Rep. Rufus Rodriguez is the official candidate of the Centrist Democratic Party of the Philippines – not Christian Democratic Party as written. The Centrist Democratic Party claimed it is ‘guided by principles of Christian and Muslim social teachings that are spelled out in concrete political programs.’ React: crisguardian@yahoo.com

Removing online libel in Cybercrime law

MINDANAO DAILY NEWS

RUEL V. PELONE

our time on the many people all around us each day to help make their lives happier.

Spending your time on people gives you wealth and happiness that you can never lose The second, yet by far most important, investment of your time is to spend it with your own Maker.

He is the Person Who Himself gives you every second you receive to keep living. You see, God didn’t just make us and then forget

us. Quite the opposite!

God created you to be His child and friend, so you can enjoy living every day with Him. That’s why God the Son came to show us what He’s like.

He wants us to see the good life He designed for us to enjoy. The more time we spend with Jesus, the better we know how to live well and successfully.

In fact, Jesus Christ guarantees that if each day you will spend your 86,400 seconds on living for Him and others, then at the end of your life when you’ve run out of seconds, you will be truly wealthy and satisfied with no regrets!

Even if you just start right now. So why not ask Jesus to forgive you and to take full charge of the time you still have left?

Just Think a Minute.

-oooDECRIMINALIZING LIBEL IN CYBERCRIME LAW: Sen. Vicente Sotto III and other lawmakers who are now much hated because they were the ones who crafted Republic Act 10175, or the Cybercrime Law, may yet redeem themselves from political perdition arising from the nationwide and international outrage over the enactment of the law, by immediately decriminalizing libel and its accompanying offenses like oral defamation and threats to commit libel.

If the law on libel, now provided for by the Revised

Kakampi mo ang batas Atty. Batas Mauricio Penal Code of the Philippines, is decriminalized and removed as a crime, that would have the effect of right away removing likewise the greatly dreaded and much-derided on-line libel under Republic Act 10175, which many attribute as Sotto’s “insertion”, even as he has strongly and repeatedly denied this.

If libel is no longer a criminal offense, that would

With the outpouring of fierce opposition and criticism to this law, we were made aware that decriminalizing libel is actually a very easy process for senators, with Sotto’s appeal to Sen. Francis Escudero to fast-track a bill that would strike down libel as a crime.

30 parents benefit from DOLE livelihood packages

By APIPA BAGUMBARAN

GINGOOG City––Thirty parents of the Special Program for the Employment for Students (SPES) beneficiaries here have benefitted from the livelihood assistance given by the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE).

Eleven of them received starter kits for sari-sari store business, six for hog fattening, three for cellphone reloading, two for peddling of processed foods, and one each for rice retailing, food processing, furniture making, fish vending, karenderia operation, trisikad operation, peddling of kakanin (puto and bibingka) and veterinary services.

Earlier, DOLE 10 Director Johnson G. Cañete released P150,000 for the purchase of goods and starter items to improve the livelihood of the said SPES parent-beneficiaries.

The amount was released to the city government through Mayor Ruth L. Guingona who facilitated the release of starter items requested under the grant.

KORONADAL City -- Some 250 police officers across Soccsksargen Region are undergoing Special Counter Insurgency Operations Unit Training (SCOUT), said PInsp. Benjamin Mauricio Jr. chief information officer of the Police Regional Office (PRO– 12).

The 45-day “rigid and tough training” is being conducted by the Regional Special Training Unit 12.

“This training is the toughest and most difficult a police officer could go through,” but on the contrary, it is the best training they could experience because it teaches every basic detail in internal security operations.”

Scout trainees, he explained, will be taught first aid, rope courses, immediate action drills, water/seaborne tactics, terrain modeling, close quarter battle, survival, field training exercises and community immersion.

Besides training officers to become physically fit and mentally awake, the course also aims to strengthen respect and loyalty to the organization, sharpen the mind; strengthen camaraderie, and build harmonious relationship among fellow police officers as well as the community.

Mauricio added the training is in line with Police Director General Nicanor Bartolome’s 10-point Action Plan.

“Scout trainees are also trained to make and build close relationship with the community. By this training, we aim that we will be able to regain the trust of the Filipino people and further build confidence in ourselves that we can secure every place in the country especially Region 12,” he added.

This batch comprises Class 30-2012. (DEDoguilesPIA 12/asf )

October 14 is Brgy Assembly Day

By ANA CELESTE W. FELISILDA

CAGAYAN de Oro City - The Barangay Assembly for the second semester of calendar year 2012 is set on October 14, this year, said Regional Director Rene K. Burdeos of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG-10).

In line with this, Director Burdeos has urged all barangay officials to conduct such an activity in their respective areas on that day, pursuant to Proclamation No. 260 issued by President Benigno Aquino on September 30, 2011 and DILG Memorandum Circular No.2012-156, dated Sept. 18, 2012. The primary objective of the event is for barangay officials and residents to have dialogue on different issues and concerns, such as peace and order, disaster preparedness, solid waste management and clean-up activities.

Director Burdeos further said, the barangay officials shall likewise present the State of Barangay Address (SOBA) with emphasis on first semester accomplishments, financial reports and updates on on-going programs.

Barangay residents are also expected to actively involve and participate in the barangay assembly to allow them to propose innovations and measures, which contribute to the attainment of good governance in their respective barangays. money services.

• Tr a i n m ore t h a n 10,000 people through financial education and literacy on the uses of mobile money and mobile money services for improved household financial management.

• Provide 10,000 people with new savings accounts via mobile banking.

• Establish an additional 2,500 cash-in/cash-out merchant partners focusing on rural areas.

• Increase payroll implementation and adoption to 100 small, medium, and large businesses and one Philippine government agency or local government unit.

• Increase the volume (monetary value) of mobile money transactions by over 200 percent.

• Sponsor conferences and venues for networking support and produce research papers and assessments for knowledge

sharing.

On the part of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, the government’s implementing partner particularly in the areas of policy and regulation, it will continue to create an environment that promotes innovations rather than stifles them, while ensuring the safety, soundness, and integrity of the system at the same time.

BSP will also continue to be proactive in our mea-

sures to protect the rights of the consumers.

BSP hop es t hat t he cooperation among the parties and agencies mentioned will not only result in the success of the SIMM Project, but also in the provision of much-needed financial services for the entire Filipino people.

to craft change that will make a positive impact to our communities and create lasting and effective results.

As agents of change let us build trust among ourselves and empower everyone who is part in the process so that every individual becomes not only an agent of change but a leader in educational transformation.

Lasting change can only be achieved if people, organizations and the like hold themselves and each other accountable for the effort, commitments and results of the process.

One writer said in his article, change agents can take the lead, act as guides; but long term sustainable change is only made possible by those living in the community.

Being change agents means becoming a facilitator of education in all aspects. This is not a one-

Cop faces rape raps

By BEN D. ARCHE DAVAO City––A police officer of the Davao City Police Office (DCPO) is now facing charges for allegedly molesting his housemaid Monday afternoon inside his residence in Talomo District this city.

The suspect, Senior Police Officer (SPO) 1 Adonis Imbestro, 37, married and detailed at Toril Police Station was the subject of rape complaint lodged by his 17 year-old house help, identified only as “gurl.” According to the victim in her complaint, the suspect entered her room after she took a bath and forced her to submit using his superior strength.

DCPO chief SSupt. Ronald dela Rosa immediately ordered the arrest of the suspect following the filing of the complaint.

Police operatives nabbed the suspect and confiscated his issued firearms on Tuesday evening. The suspect is now detained at the DCPO detention cell.

P/SInsp. Arcely Yaun, DCPO Women and Children Protection Desk chief, said the suspect will be facing several charges for violation of Republic Act 8353 or the AntiRape Law and Republic Act 7610 known as the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act. Yaun, who prepared the charges against suspect, added that SPO1 Imbestro will also be charged administratively before the Internal Affairs Service (JAS) of the Philippine National Police.

worth P250-million with the assistance of Cagayan de Oro Rep. Rufus Rodriguez. This project will be constructed in five phases worth P50-million each and is designed to prevent flooding like the Sendong experience.

Darimbang said she will also continue her livelihood projects for women especially in the hinterland barangays which she has already been doing as a service to the residents of the city’s first congressional district.

She also plans to improve the tourism industry here as a way to generate jobs, remove motorelas from thoroughfares and implement a color coding or numbering system for vehicles as a way to lessen the heavy traffic in the city’s main roads, and address petty crime incidences by strengthening the peace and order situation of the city.

Another concern she would look into is infrastructure development, including the building of a sports complex.

Darimbang has announced that a request sent to the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority for scholarships has been approved recently. She said the youth will benefit from the scholarships worth P5-million when they take up technical and vocational courses.

For his part, De la Rosa said he will “put the city in order.”

He elaborated that by that he means everything should be in their proper places, including sidewalk and ambulant vendors as well as garbage.

De la Rosa said this does not need a new ordinance to be implemented, but the city council’s committees should exercise their oversight function so that implementation is done down to the barangay level.

Online... from page 4

Escudero should instead act on a bill pending with his (Escudero’s) committee, decriminalizing libel,

because decriminalizing libel will be a much easier process than amending the Cybercrime Law at this stage, to remove on-line libel. Sotto proposed two things along these lines: lawmakers must pass the law decriminalizing libel now, or, he, Sotto, himself will proposed a law removing libel as an offense under the Revised Penal Code. Either way, this would mean a major victory for press freedom and free speech, both in the traditional media, and in the Internet. Now, let us see where all these will lead to in the days to come.

-oooL I B E L V I O L AT E S FREE PRESS AND FREE SPEECH: I really do not understand why the Revised Penal Code carries with it a provision penalizing as a crime libelous utterances. And I really do not understand why nobody questioned this anomaly in the law. Why anomaly?

Simply because while the Constitution guarantees free speech and freedom of the press, a much lesser law---the Revised Penal Code---rules otherwise.

In any given legal system such as that obtaining in the Philippines, the Constitution occupies the highest position among existing laws, such that anything that contravenes any Constitutional provision is declared null and void. Surely, the libel provisions of the penal code contravenes the Constitution, but nobody has questioned that.

With the brouhaha generated by the passage of the Cybercrime Law, the time has come for libel to be decriminalized. And it is significant that this is happening not because of the work of former newsmen or mediamen who became lawmakers who, quite oddly, chose to ignore this basic anomaly involving the press. If this is happening now, it must only be because God has willed it to happen.

on fire Thursday morning.

Initial report showed that the fire started at the radio station located at the third floor of Montalban Building that also host a hotel, a jewelry store, among others.

Members of the Boy Scout of the Philippines helped rescue some guests of the hotel.

No casualty was reported in the fire which damage placed at P17 million.

The Butuan City Police Station 1 took custody of the female suspect identified only as “Rose.” She allegedly poured gasoline at the FM station and set it on fire.

Police believed that the absence of security guard made it possible for the suspect to sneak in and set the station on fire.

Police reported that it was not the first time that she poured gasoline at said radio station. She did the same in July to get even with DJ Benjie Parak, who allegedly turned her love down.

DJ Benjie Parak told police that “Rose also poured kerosene at his motorcycle.

‘I already explained to her I do not love her and that we will just be friends but it seemed she’s obsessed. I suspect as others do there’s something wrong with her,’ DJ Benjie Parak said.

Radio station manager and Kapisanan Ng Mga Broadcaster ng Pilipinas Butuan and Agusan chapter President Israel Palero said the they are now studying to file charges of arson against Rose.

unreasonable searches and seizures, and right to privacy can scarcely be imagined” in this age of information and communications technology”, the petition read.

The group decried that the law gives a heavier penalty for crimes committed via the internet. It said that usual cases of harassment such as libel, rebellion and sedition can now be carried online if the idea is

to simply harass someone.

It also assailed the cyberlaw for its silence on what constitutes “without or in excess of authority” on data, documents and data messages in cyberspace.

“Is ‘authority’ based on ‘ownership’ of a computer data, electronic document or electronic data message, e.g. a person’s ownership over online photos or articles, or by a delegated authority from said ownership, or is authority based on ‘mere interest,’ meaning a person’s interest over an online photo or article?

The law is pretty vague on these matters, but the punishments are on the other hand very specific and heavy” Reyes said.

“With admissions coming from lawmakers that the law is flawed, we are confident that the people’s opposition will succeed. We urge the Supreme Court to give due course to all the petitions filed and will be filed against the draconian cybercrime law,” Reyes said.

E-martial law In the House of Representatives, moves against the cybercrime law are also being made.

On October 1, Kabataan Partylist Rep. Raymond Palatino filed House Bill 6613 seeking to repeal several contentious provisions in the new law. Bayan Muna Rep. Teddy Casiño stands as the bill’s co-author.

Palatino said the insertion of provisions regarding online libel and vague sections on data collection and sanctions make it essentially an online censorship law. HB 6613 seeks to repeal Sections 4(c)4, 5, 6, 7 and the whole Chapter 4 of RA 10175.

According to Palatino, Section 4(c)4, 5, and 6 of RA 10175 relate to online libel, and are unconstitutional due its vagueness. Chapter IV, in the meantime, is also unconstitutional for violating constitutional due process.

“The new law is thus a threat to the constitutional freedoms of the press and expression. The relative freedom of publication utilized by online critics of government policies shall now be curtailed,”

Palatino said.

“Once the session resumes on October 8, our primary agenda will be to pass this repeal bill. We cannot let e-Martial Law be enacted,” Palatino said.

The youth lawmaker and blogger is also set to file the Internet Bill of Rights later this week. “It’s high time that legislation on the internet turns from being prohibitive to becoming protective,” Palatino said , explaining that the said bill will enumerate the rights of Filipino netizens.

“We’re still consulting with several stakeholders to ensure that the bill will not turn out like the Cybercrime Law. hopefully, we’ll be able to file it before this week ends.”

Palatino also criticized the SC’s inaction on the petitions against the cybercrime law.

“To that we say, absence makes the Internet grow darker,” Palatino said, referring to the ongoing online campaign to blackout websites and change profile pictures in networking sites to black images in protest of the dreaded law. “We are now experiencing the first repercussions of the Aquino court. The Cybercrime Law is set to be implemented tomorrow, and the high court is doing nothing to stop it,” he said.

The youth lawmaker has joined several other groups in filing petitions for TRO against RA 10175.

He is among the petitioners in the motion filed

by Kabataan Partylist also on October 2.

Other petitioners include ACT Teachers Partylist Rep. Antonio Tinio, Anakbayan National Chair Vencer Crisostomo, Philippine Collegian Editor-inChief Katherine Elona, and Dean Roland Tolentino of the UP College of Mass Communication.

They are seeking the issuance of the writs of prohibition and mandamus against the executive secretary and the secretary of the Department of Justice, and for the exercise of judicial review to assail the constitutionality of the cybercrime law. (http:// bulatlat.com)

Leader... from page 1

Witnesses said one of the men moved closer to Paborada and fired at him again in the head. Paborada sustained five gunshot wounds: two on his chest, one in the abdominal area and another on his hand. He was dead on the spot.

The gunmen on board a white motocross-type motorcycle quickly sped away.

“We believe that Paborada was killed because of his stance against A. Brown Company’s palm oil plantation,” Jomorito Goaynon, chairman of Kalumbay, a regional organization of indigenous peoples in Northern Mindanao, told Bulatlat.com in a phone interview.

Paborada’s organization Pangalasag has been resisting the expansion of the palm oil plantation of A. Brown Company in the villages of Bagocboc and Tingalan in Opol, Misamis Oriental.

Pangalasag said the company did not secure their free, prior and informed consent (FPIC) before encroaching on their ancestral domain. In a fact-finding mission in May, the group said, A. Brown grabbed their lands, destroyed their crops and forced them to leave.

“We view this as an attack against the indigenous people’s right to land and to self-determination,” Goaynon said, adding that Paborada defended the rights of his fellow Higaonon tribe.

Threatened Paborada had been warned against opposing the palm oil plantation.

The Kalumbay leader also said Opol Mayor Dexter Yasay, in a dialogue with Pangalasag on June 4, publicly accused Paborada of being a member of the New People’s Army (NPA).

The NPA is the armed wing of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP).

The local government is vocal in its support to A. Brown.

In an interview by Bulatlat. com in May this year, Paborada related how A. Brown’s security guards pointed their guns at him, telling him to leave the land.

Since March 2011, Paborada left Bagocboc and had relocated to Puntod in Cagayan de Oro City to evade threats to his life. He earned a living by opening a small store. He still frequented Bagocboc village to lead community-based campaigns of Pangalasag. On the day of the killing, Paborada just came from Bagocboc.

He is survived by his wife and their seven-year-old child.

Kalumbay said Paborada is the fourth member of an indigenous people’s group who had been killed in Northern Mindanao since President Benigno Aquino III assumed office. (http://bulatlat.com)

Looking through one’s lens MY SEVERAL READINGS ON MACROECONOMICS OF LABOR MARKETS REVEAL ONE REALITY, that is, the need for more studies that will address basically all sectors of the society.

For instance, the study conducted by Sergiy Stetsenko of the University of Pennsylvania (2010) shows the change in behavior of fertility rate at business cycle frequencies in the United States between the 1970s and 1990s and it further shows how the cyclical and secular properties of fertility can be used to distinguish among several proposed theories that account for the rise in labor force participation of married mothers.

Another study by Marion Warmuth (2007) deals with managing the aging workforce and it discusses the challenges arising from it.

It shows that the prejudices and discrimination attached to older employees such as being resistant to new approaches or new technologies and being less productive can be managed through changing the mindset of employers and the company culture. It also supports findings of a survey of a research institute that elderly are able to mange difficult situations through their routine and experience and up-to-date knowledge and education.

So what is the bottom line?

What I want to put across in this article is the realization that while it is true that the National Statistics Office is periodically conducting the Labor Force Survey, there is a corresponding

Salvador A. Aves, Ph.D, DM need for researchers – be it from the corporate world or the academe- to use the NSO data as take-off point for further studies. It is not enough to obtain LFS data that gives number of employed, unemployed, or underemployed, it is also vital to see through one’s lens the perspectives and consequences of a given situation and given set of data through research.

What is this Labor Force Survey (LFS)? The LFS aims to provide a quantitative framework for the preparation of plans and formulation of policies affecting the labor market.

Specifically, the survey is designed to provide statistics on levels and trends of employment, unemployment and underemployment for the country, as a whole, and for each of the administrative regions, including provinces and key cities.

The LFS has undergone changes in its questionnaire design starting in July 1987 where modifications in the concepts and definitions for measuring labor force and employment characteristics were adopted.

The design is based on a past week reference period and new concept of availability and looking for work is adopted. With regard the concept, the Labor Force or Economically Active

15-24 years.

Looking at the regional data, Cagayan Valley recorded the highest employment rate of 96.8 percent,

Population refers to population 15 years old and over who are either employed or unemployed.

On the other hand, Persons Not in the Labor Force are those persons who are not looking for work because of reasons such as housekeeping ,schooling, etc.

Examples are housewives, students, disabled or retired persons. For most part, statistics have been limited to the socio-economic data at the national level. It is very evident though that there is the need for information at the local level. In this regard, the LFS sample design has been drawn in such a way that accurate lower level classification would be possible.

How are we going to look at the inputs of the LFS? For more effective application, it is preferable to look at the latest results- the July 2012 Labor Force Survey (LFS), which can be easily compared with the July 2011 data.

Translating this set of data into figures, we would be looking at an estimated 63.1 million population aged 15 years and over with an employment rate of 93.0 per cent (almost the same with the 92.9 percent in July 2011), unemployment rate of 7.0 per cent and an underemployment rate of 22.7 per cent.

ADB: World market harmed if RP stops importing rice MANILA, Philippines - The Philippines’ goal of attaining rice self-sufficiency in 2013 year may cause harm to the international rice market and cause price shocks, according to a working paper released by the Asian Development Bank (ADB).

If this happens, this would be the second time the Philippines affects global rice prices in recent history after being cited as one of the main reasons for the world rice price crisis in 2008.

In a paper released on Thursday, August 30, the Manila-based multilateral institution noted that the Philippines is one of the 3 biggest rice importers in the world. The other top global importers are Nigeria and Indonesia.

“Net importing countries have pursued self-sufficiency in rice that is likely to insure them against the risk of trade disruptions. However, the self-sufficiency strategy raises the cost of rice security in the region,” the ADB said in paper titled “Enhancing ASEAN’s Resiliency to Extreme Rice Price Volatility.”

Regional rice index Meantime, the ADB recommended that rice importing countries lower their self-sufficiency targets in exchange for commitments from exporting countries to stay away from unilateral export restrictions.

Fu r t her, i n a not her paper titled “Commodities Exchange: Options for Addressing Price Risk and Volatility in Rice,” the ADB said that to calm world rice price volatility, Asian countries could establish a regional rice index and commodities exchange.

The ADB suggested financial instruments, like futures and options, could be traded on existing commodities exchanges in Hong Kong, China, or Singapore.

“Top exporters such as India, Thailand, and Vietnam could also establish domestic commodities exchanges, allowing farmers to obtain a better price by selling their most popular local rice grades directly on the market, rather than through a middleman,” the paper read.

The road to rice selfsufficiency The local price of rice, the most politically sensitive

among crops in the Philippines, rose close to 40% in 2008, when global supply was threatened, exposing the vulnerability of the Philippines to the world market.

The Arroyo government’s moves then to secure deals with Vietnam, a rice exporter, sent world prices soaring.

The Aquino government has since pursued a rice selfsufficiency policy, which has a timetable as follows: The Philippines has been citing the self-sufficiency program in rice and overall growth in the crops subsector as the main growth drivers in attaining agriculture growth of 4.3% to 5.3% in the medium term.

Agriculture Secretary Proceso J. Alcala has remained firm on efforts to attain 100% rice self sufficiency. He said the government has enough funds to spend for its self sufficiency bid.

The Philippines imported 500,000 MT of milled rice for 2012. Alcala said it is possible that the country will import “a minimal volume” of milled rice next year.

The DA is optimistic that it can produce 20.04 million metric tons (MMT) of palay and 8.75 MMT of corn in 2013 with a bigger budget approved by the Department of Budget and Management (DBM).
