Hydro’s potential to negate dry spells in Mindanao

By Mike Baños Contrary to popular belief, Mindanao could still have undeveloped hydroelectric power potentials which can negate the effects of climate change, more specifically the El Niño phenomenon.

Engr. David A. Tauli, spokesperson of the Mindanao Coalition of Power Consumers, said the experience of other coun-

Oil firms push back prices anew OIL firms on Sunday implemented a sweeping price cut on their petroleum products.

Major players Petron Corp., Pilipinas Shell and small player Seaoil Philippines slashed 65 centavos per liter for premium gasoline (including unleaded); 50 centavos per liter on regular gas, 40 centavos per liter on diesel; and 25 centavos per liter off on kerosene effective at 12:01 a.m. Sunday.

Big player Total Philippines also cut prices of the same set of petroleum products, except kerosene, at 6 a.m.

Flying V, another small oil firm, cut 60 centavos per liter on premium gasoline prices and 50 centavos per liter on regular, diesel, and kerosene, also at 6 a.m.

“This (adjustment) is to reflect the movements in the international oil market,” Petron said in a text advisory.

Other oil companies have yet to announce a price tweak as of press time.

A report from the Philippine News Agency

tries which have a large hydroelectric power component are contrary to the Department of Energy and the Asian Development Bank’s opinion that further development of Mindanao’s hydropower potential is not advisable given their inherent vulnerability to drought, citing the recent 2010 power crisis ostensibly due to the El Niño phenomenon.

“Ninety percent of Nor-

way and Brazil’s electricity are sourced from hydropower plants while New Zealand has 60%,” said Mr. Tauli.

“They also have among the lowest rates internationally for power generation.”

Even granting how Norway and New Zealand both have temperate climate patterns. Mr. Tauli said recent weather patterns in Mindanao demonstrate how energy planners can

actually take advantage of these location specific climate patterns.

“The historical weather patterns in Mindanao show it is wet in the east side when the west side is dry, and vice versa,” he explained. “This means that construction of a judicious balance of hydro plants on the east and west sides would mean a virtually weather-independent total dependable capacity

of hydro power plants. “In other words, hydro plants on both east and west sides would act as the base-load power plants so their combined dependable capacity would be available 24/7.”

Hydro power plants on the West Side include 600 MW of large hydro on the Pulangi River and around 500 MW on the Cagayan River and its tributaries. The East Side includes around

250 MW of large hydro on the Agusan River at least 200 MW of small hydro in various places, and 400 MW of pumped storage hydro on Lake Mainit.

“Hydro plants are supposed to be not operated as base-load,” said Gonzalo B. Julian, Jr., Electricity Sourcing, Business Development Manager, Holcim Philippines, Inc. “Usually MINDANAO/PAGE 7

Cops scratch heads over missing Chinese

By PAT SAMONTE, Regional Editor-Caraga with AL JACINTO, Regional Editor-Zamboanga

BUTUAN City––Police authorities are still facing a blank wall on the whereabouts of a Chinese national who went missing since April 11.

Authorities said 40-yraold Rui Lei, an employee of Shengzhou Mining Corporation in Claver, Surigao del Norte, allegedly went to Surigao City on board a passenger van. His friends tried to get in tough with him through his mobile phone but got no positive information, police said.

Jochrys Real, Shenzhou Mining liaison officer, told police Lei contacted him through his cellphone on Friday at around 9 a.m. but the Chinaman did not divulge his whereabouts.

“Lei merely said ‘I’m alright and I’ll contact you

Lei was born in Jianxi, China on July 18, 1971, more or less 5 feet and 5 inches tall, weighs 60-70 kilos, of medium built, white complexion and black hair.

He was wearing eye glasses, green polo shirt and blue pants when last seen. Claver police request the public to report to them information on the whereabouts of the missing Lei. In October last year, three South Korean nationals––Woo Shu Bong, Kim Nam Dou and Choi––who were reported missing were actually kidnapped in Lanao.

NGCP clarifies research on penetration limits of ‘renewable energy’ into the grid SYSTEM operator and transmission service provider National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) has rejected allegations that it is arbitrarily limiting the installation targets of renewable energy (RE) resources to be connected to the grid.

NGCP and its partners from the State Grid Cor-

poration of China (SGCC) and China Electric Power Research Institute (CEPRI) conducted a technical analysis last year to study how to guard the grid against the effects of the unpredictable nature of intermittent RE. NGCP clarified that the interim report presented to the Department of Energy

last year was not a final recommendation on the installation targets. Other considerations for setting the targets like financial and rate impacts are already outside of NGCP’s purview.

The study’s technical considerations included the electric power system stability and actual avail-

LP conducts seminar for Misor members

By GERRY L. GORIT MISAMIS Oriental––Some mayors, vice mayors and municipal councilors of Misamis Oriental attended Thursday the Basic Orientation on Liberal Democracy conducted by the Liberal Party at the Mindanao University of Science and Technology in Cagayan de Oro. Misamis Oriental Vice Gov. Norris Babiera said about 135 officials who want to take their oath as members of the LP participated in the event as a membership requirement of the party of President Noynoy Aquino.

Babiera said 14 municipal mayors of the province and the mayor of Gingoog City graced the affair with LP Director General Gladys Sta. Rita who arrived from Manila to consolidate their forces here for next year’s elections.

He added that the 14 municipal mayors and Gingoog Mayor Ruthie Guingona have already taken their oath last August and that Thursday’s orientation was held for the vice mayors, ABC presidents and municipal

councilors, including the mayor of Alubijid who had yet to take the oath.

“The LP has stood its ground through the years,” Babiera said.

Founded by Manuel Roxas in 1946, the LP is the second oldest political party in the country and counts two other presidents of the Philippines who have come from the party: Elpidio Quirino and Diosdado Macapagal.

Babiera said the orientation will prepare the participants for full membership in the party as they study the social contract of President Aquino and inculcate the principles of becoming a Liberal.

The activity included a trainor’s training for Northern Mindanao. The regional trainers will then conduct basic orientation seminars for Misamis Occidental, Lanao del Norte, Bukidnon and Camiguin.

Asked whether he is going to run for the governor’s post in the 2013 elections, Babiera said the LP has not yet decided who will be their candidate for that post.

Veggie farmers learn organic agriculture IN the effort to promote and develop organic agriculture, the Department of Agriculture – Agribusiness and Marketing Assistance Division (DA-AMAD) co-funded a seminar on Pest and Diseases and Organic Agriculture among members of the Mindanao Agri-Growers Multi-purpose Cooperative or MAG-MPC on April 17, 2012 at De Luxe Hotel, Cagayan de Oro City.

MAG-MPC is composed of vegetable farmers that are involved in vegetable trading at Bulua Public Market, Bulua, Cagayan de Oro City. They were the first who conceptualized the conduct of the seminar to help members of the cooperative to gain new knowledge about agriculture specifically on vegetable production.

There were 29 out of the 56 members of the cooperative who participated in the said event.

The seminar was organized by Growth with Equity in Mindanao (GEM) Program- a USAID funded project, non-government and non-profit organization. GEM Program aims to provide a refresher course and up-

dates on agricultural practices and policies among vegetable farmers and traders. Ms. Margie G. Baldezamo, Agribusiness Specialist of GEM informed that one of the objectives of GEM is “increasing volume and value of vegetable production of local farmers enabling them to sustain production not only for Mindanao but for the whole country”.

Baldezamo further stressed that with the collaborative efforts of GEM Program, government agencies, private sectors and even the academe, the objective to accelerate economic growth in Mindanao will be attained and the benefits will be equitably distributed.

Pilots are never even allowed to take off without a flight plan: knowing where they’re going and how they’ll get there. But many of us are like the university student who said: “I don’t like to think about things until they happen. Death is still a long way away.”

My grandmother used to tease my grandfather when

he would leave the house to go for walks.

She’d say to him: “Now dear, don’t go so far you can’t get back!” You know, that’s exactly what happens to us when we die. We’ve gotten so far we can’t get back.

‘Triple A+L’ conspiracy LAST WEEK, Party List Rep. Teddy Casiño issued a press release that Mindanao Daily carried on its April 19, 2012 issue.

Casiño hinted that the power shortage in Mindanao was handy work of three top government officials notably, President Aquino, Aboitiz group of companies and Energy Secretary Rene Almendras.

The party list representative Cris Diaz suspected that the three officials connived to create a condition of power shortage in Mindanao. With imminent power shortage, the Aboitiz group could pursue their plans of constructing a coalfired power plant in Davao. It is likely that the Aboitiz proposed coal-fired power plant in Davao is a replica of the 200 MW Steag coal-fired power plant in Mismis Oriental.

Aside from the construction of the coal-fired power plants, the Aboitiz group also offered to sell power barges to the Philippine government. Not contented, there were suspicions that the Aboitiz group also lobbied for the privatization of the Agus-Pulangi Hydropower plant in Bukidnon. Once the government decides to privatize the Agus-Pulangi Hydropower plant, expect the Aboitiz group to have a stake, if not, acquired the Agus-Pulangi Hydropower plant.

Ready or not, we’re going down! So we need to prepare for landing while we’ve still got time.

How about you? Do you know where you would ‘land’—if your life ended today? You see, we cannot know what’s going to happen to us tomorrow so we must be smart and sure we’re ready today!

Just ask Jesus Christ to forgive you for your past wrongs and to take charge of your life every day. That’s the way you can live with total peace of mind that whenever your life ends, 5 years from now or 5 days from now, you know you’re ready for a safe landing.

Just Think a Minute.

thinks. Unless, one walks in the corridors of power, getting into the eye of these transactions is definitely impossible. Would anyone believed that the government would initiate moves to privatize its assets without somebody from the outside initiating it?

Casiño’s suspicions that Aquino, Aboitiz and Almendras conspired to make the public believed that privatizing power supply in Mindanao is the only option holds water. ‘We are left with no option but privatized power generation in Mindanao. The people must bear high power cost, else the island would be swallowed in darkness,’ Aquino said during power forum in Mindanao two weeks ago. Such statement coming from the President leaved us guessing on whether Aquino is aware of backdoor schemes (if any) designed by crooked power brokers.

On the other hand, the declarative statement created an impression that the President has given the go signal to privatize power generation supply in Mindanao. A Mindanao-wide protest will certainly take place if the government allows higher cost of electric power in the island. Aware of an impending dissent, Aquino bargained for two years to fix hydropower plants in Mindanao.

But, why ‘triple A + L’? The ‘triple A’ formula applied to Aquino, Aboitiz and Almendras while the ‘L’ means the Lopez. With the Aboitizes controlling Mindanao power supply and the Lopezes in Luzon, the cycle of power control by private companies closed to the power that be is completed.

The gift WE often receive gifts from people, may it be from a friend, a lover, parent, sibling, enemy, or from God. There are many various natures of gifts like for example the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the gift of persuasion, the gift of charisma, the gift of healing, the gift of lying and many others. Then there is of course the kind of gift that we receive during Christmas and Birthdays.

The kind of gift that I want to talk about in this week’s column is the mystic gift.

Few people are blessed with the gift of foresight and let me share few individuals who are blessed with these gifts. I have a student who has the ability to see ghosts and nature creatures.

He was a member of the Spirit Questors of Ateneo until he decided to transfer in Iligan City for his studies. Twice did he call my

Jibber Jabber with Ace Fredrian Xavier Busico attention in school; one was the time that he met me half way to the class room and told me that he saw a lady walk beside me and slowly vanished. During one of our classes he got distracted because he saw little people playing in the college field.

I also have a friend who has the gift of clairvoyance.

She is well known in one of the schools in Iligan that students call her witch. She had a vision Barangay Saray in Iligan on fire minutes before it blazed and dark smoke filled the sky.

She also had a vision when she was in Davao of

the plane crash a day before it occurred. When she left for the United States, her clairvoyance followed her there and though she was in foreign soil, she continued to have visions of Iligan.

She called her mother and warned her of the upcoming flood at Barangay Mahayahay and the neighbor bound to die in the flood. Her vision came true and recently, she told me to pray that Iligan be safeguarded from natural calamities.

She had two visions, one was a great earthquake that would hit Iligan City and a great flood. The latter

occurred in Iligan but the former occurred in Negros.

Her latest vision of Iligan is the terrorist attack which she felt great fear when she and the vision. She pleaded that prayers be made for safety.

Looking into the future is a privilege owned by the gifted. In 2010, I met a very gifted card reader that I would often visit him to inquire about certain things and he never ceases to amaze me.

He knows my entire secret that I have been keeping in my closet. He would warn me of political enemies and he would often provide me amulets but I refuse to accept them because I feel silly carrying it around my wrist and I know for a fact that God will never let bad things happen to me.

Are government IDs a joke?

A COUPLE of days ago I went to a Social Security System (SSS) office to inquire about getting an ID card.

You see I’ve been paying the SSS, GSIS, Philhealth and Pag-ibig since 2007 but not once have I received an identification card from any one of these government agencies.

Quite frankly, it feels like I’ve been paying these ghosts for the past 5 years without neither a receipt nor any shred of evidence that they exist.

Proof of that of course is none of these entities even bothered to issue me something as basic as an ID. So I thought I should take matters into my own hands.

I’ve waited 5 years after all and it doesn’t look like these government agencies are

So the public may know Atty. Sara Jane A. Suguitan going to change.

So there I was at a jampacked SSS office, which, true to form, looks as depressing as any government office. The guard by the door politely offered to help.

I told him I wanted to get an ID since I have been paying my premiums since 2007. I mentioned the year because I’m thinking that maybe they already have an ID for me ready for printing and that I just haven’t picked it up. (I will be proved

wrong.)

The guard handed me a sheet of paper to fill out and asked me if I have a couple of 2x2 photos. I looked at the queue and did a mental calculation. There are at least a hundred people in there. I turned to the guard and asked him, “How long before I can claim my ID? Two hours? One week?”

The guard replied with a straight face, (wait for it) “At least seven months.” My jaw dropped to the floor.

In a split-second I gathered my bearings, closed my mouth and started laughing.

“Seven? Months? That’s very funny.” At this point, people started to stare at me. Oddly enough, they looked at me as if I should be thankful that it’s just seven months.

(Normally, they would have stared because I was making a scene.) The guard turned to a stack of paper tacked on the wall beside him.

He pointed to the list of names of people who have not yet received their IDs. He told me that they’ve only started issuing IDs for members (wait for it) as of 2003. (It is now two thousand and twelve.) At this point, I started to feel bummed out. I asked him if he already got an SSS ID. JOKE/PAGE 9

Off calculators and stupidity TECHNOLOGY when I was young introduced the TV remote and the calculator allowing us to do our math with accuracy.

The TV-remote allowed us entertainment and TV programming to surf channels to empower us with the availability of competing networks.

The many that refused technology using slide rulers and the abacus if not long-hand, had to learn the Harry Tambuatco hard way and eventually had to catch up.

A decade was lost to many resisting technology.

Hopefully after six decades they have learned to use the calculator and TV remote.

Today the internet has brought the library into our homes and offices. Many that refuse to adapt or remain computer illiterate continue to employ secretaries and practice dictation ever so reliant to a secretary.

They tend to muddle communications when translations are inaccurate and hide their incompetence. With computers, one is allowed to compose with resources at hand i.e. spell-check, managing sentence formations if not resource information from the net.

Instant communication, locally or internationally is within your finger tips literally. It is incomprehensible

that there are still managers out there who cannot adapt to today’s technologies. And what makes matters worse, is most of them are with government.

I “wrecken” these dinosaurs who remain incompetent for jobs authorized can only cause disaster. There are the old folks who in government positions manage to stay in office when to begin with, they have become passé and should retire. Refusing to stay in tune with today’s fast-paced world should be criteria for staying a management position.

Now for some current events if not a recurring issue; the Mindanao power crisis. There is nothing new or breaking news as for power and energy requirements for the south.

Most of us have known for decades that the south will suffer without new power plants in place. This is elementary and yet government has managed to keep Mindanao dark today.

Commerce is restricted and soon the people will suffer the consequence of this retardation. To say the least that the people there need to accept their faith and sigh is simply unacceptable.

Nuclear energy has been discussed on multiple levels if not coal plants for base-load power and yet government is inconsistent with decisions and policy to consider options that remain on the table to the detriment of the south.

The Philippines and China IT is very clear that China which is aware of its size and strength is bullying our country for us to run away from our claim of the Spratleys Islands.

Indications showed crystal clear that the former just want the latter to get out of the disputed area and cry forever. This matter does not make Filipinos pleased so well. Many of us are thinking about taking the law into our hands and start fighting already.

Of course, this is not the solution. I mean that is the solution but not this early. And besides we can not do that because we are so small animal facing the might of a giant.

The matter has to be brought to an international court or arbiter for peaceful solution. In this way we do not lose our faces as helpless people who have nothing to present in a bitter confrontation.

The Striker

Ben Emata Jr. If we go to war, it should not be against China unless outside help come behind us and push us for more strength and power. Right now there is nothing to show off much less any strength capable of winning any kind of battle. There is nothing in our possession except courage and determination which can not be applied in the instant case.

We need more diplomacy tactics and strategies. Just keep those outdated planes and ships from the eyes of the Chinese to show we are not provoking anyone.

But be ready in case fighting will really come to our

shores. We do not have to run to the mountains. We offer our lives for honor and dignity but not ahead of diplomacy.

The mistakes of our leaders ever since was their failure to make our country brave and strong.

Many of them enjoyed enriching themselves forgetting their obligation to strengthen our military. We have no fighting machines in our possession.

We cannot last a full day of war with a strong enemy. Our military has no capability to do battle with such nuclear powered enemies like China and

others.

We need modern war materials, fighter jets, big warships, submarines, and brave Filipinos to man our military. We need soldiers who will run forward and not retreat in volley of fire.

We need respectable styles in fighting rather than be laughed at by foreign countries. We need strength and facilities to give a better fight against whoever is our enemy.

We must save our face.

We must admit we are so little a nation entering in the arena of conflict in the Scarborough Shoal. We must look straight to the eyes of our friends and enemies.

Let us show to China we are not ready to run on any situation although the truth of the matter is we are about to run. After all, war is a matter of who run first. And as long as we run forward, we shall win all wars.

What to expect in the Corona impeachment trial?

THIS EARLY, there is already a raging discussion as to what would be the ultimate outcome of the Senate impeachment trial against Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato C. Corona.

No less than Philippine Star columnist and former Senate President Ernesto Maceda made a fearless forecast to the effect that Corona may ultimately be acquitted not on the merit of the case but more on political realities.

Corona will only need eight votes to earn dismissal of the impeachment complaint. Already, there is a consensus that six senators are inclined to vote for an acquittal for one reason or another. They are Senators Joker Arroyo, Miriam Defensor Santiago, Ramon “Bong” Revilla, Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Manuel Villar and Lito Lapid.

Arroyo and Defensor may vote for acquittal on firm legal grounds while the four others will vote based on political and personal reasons. Revilla and Lapid will go for acquittal because they are stalwarts of the political party Lakas Kampi, principal political enemy of the President.

Villar sees President Aquino as ill-motivated in pushing for the impeachment of Corona while the young Marcos will throw the impeachment complaint to the garbage can in the same manner the President ignored or disregarded the recommendation of Vice President Binay and his committee for the granting of a hero’s burial for the late President Ferdinand Marcos in Ilocos Norte.

So, it looks Corona will only need to do some little leg work to get two more votes. And it is generally believed that the influential Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) is four-square behind the Chief Justice and his bid to get cleared of the charges.

And there are six reelectionist Senators who will likely fall in line at the doorsteps of the INC Central Palace to get its endorsement which should ensure them of between three to four million votes from loyal followers of the Eduardo Manalo led church.

The six senators who will seek re-election next year are Loren Legarda, Chiz Escudero, Gregorio Hona-

san, Allan Peter Cayetano, Antonio Trillanes and Koko Pimental. Who among them could say they don’t need the command vote of the INC? Maybe Legarda and Escudero because they are overwhelming favorites and survey topnotchers. But how about the four other senators, can they say they can win without INC support?

Well, your guess is as good as mine…

On the other hand, there are seven who appear to be sure supporters of a Corona conviction. They are Senators Franklin Drilon, Ralph Recto, Francis Pangilinan, Teofisto Guingona III, Edgardo Angara, Antonio Trillanes and Panfilo Lacson. Senators Drilon, Recto.

Guingona and Pangilinan will vote for conviction based on their being stalwarts of the Liberal Party.

Trillanes may also go for conviction because a NO vote may anger President Aquino who can easily send him back behind the military stockade iron grills for the still pending rebellion charges against him.

Angara is a likely conviction voter because his son Congressman Sonny is already sure of inclusion in the administration senatorial slate.

Lacson is perceived as a good friend of President Aquino and like Pangilinan are sure conviction supporters because they both need an appointment to the Aquino Cabinet by July 1, 2013 when their terms shall have expired.

Lacson is expected to get appointed as Interior and Local Government Secretary while Pangilinan could be the next Justice Secretary with the incumbent Laila de Lima being sure of inclusion in the LP Senate ticket for 2013.

And so, there are important votes that should be a major concern for the prosecution and President Aquino. These are Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile, Senators Jinggoy Estrada, Tito Sotto and Pia Cayetano.

And of course, the re-electionist senators should also be priority targets of the prosecution and the Palace political operators.

I can only think of Sen. Legarda as the easiest target.

All the President needs to do is ask Senator Angara TRIAL/PAGE 9

Little Mary in Sunday School

Little Mary was not the best student in Sunday School. Usually she slept through the class. One day the teacher called on her while she was napping, ‘’Tell me, Mary, who created the universe?’’

When Mary didn’t stir, an altruistic boy seated in the chair behind her, took a pin and jabbed her in the rear. ‘’God Almighty !’’ shouted Mary and the teacher said, ‘’very good’’ and Mary fell back to sleep.

A while later the teacher asked Mary, ‘’Who is our Lord and Savior?’’

But Mary didn’t even stir from her slumber.

Again, the boy came to the rescue and stuck her again. ‘’Jesus Christ!’’ shouted Mary and the teacher said, ‘’very good,’’ and Mary fell back to sleep.

Then the teacher asked Mary a third question, ‘’What did Eve say to Adam after she had her 23rd child?’’ And again the boy behind her jabbed her with the pin. This time Mary jumped up and shouted, ‘’If you stick that damn thing in me one more time, I’ll break it in half!’’ The Teacher fainted.

Mindanao... from page 1

these plants are peakers and ancillary reserves due to the fact that they are dependent on water level (which is dependent on weather patterns). “Balancing” hydro plants on the east and west could be possible to appear that hydro plants could act as base-load plants, but we need more of these plants and high investment is required to maintain supply security in the grid.

Engr. Sonny S. Navarro, a Fil-Am energy consultant who has extensive experience in the construction of nuclear and coal-fired power plants in the US, believes Mr. Tauli’s proposal merits further study. “ The exp erience of Norway and New Zealand is inspiring, considering they’re both industrialized countries and have the ability to build other types of power plants, especially Norway because of its bountiful North Sea oil fields. In comparison, the US only derives about seven percent of its power from hydro, the rest coming from coal (45%), natural gas (23%) and nuclear (20%). It would behoove the Philippines, particularly Mindanao though, not to rely too heavily on one type.

The East and West weather patterns as averred by Dave will need to be studied more closely by weather experts to determine whether sufficient water can indeed be harnessed on a “rotating” basis. If assumptions are proved inaccurate, this scheme could potentially be a costly mistake.”

Mindanao’s pres ent generating supply profile dictates the economically optimum choice for immediate construction are intermediate-load, not baseload power plants, said Mr. Tauli in an email to coalition members, copy of which was furnished to this paper.

“The optimum economic operation of a system of generating plants that supplies a grid normally requires a mix of base-load, intermediateload, and peaking power plants.”

“I agree with Dave if the profile I have in mind is the same as that of him,” Mr. Julian noted. “ Intermediate supply has to come to augment peak demand. New hydro plants could fill in this gap. The system operator however has to manage this well.”

Base-Load power plants operate 24/7 at their rated dependable power capacity (coal, geothermal, and nuclear power plants) while Intermediate-Load power plants include hydro plants and other renewable energy (RE)-based power plants whose power generation varies rather than being held at the same level during operations.

Mr. Tauli says Mindanao has an “ideal mix” of the three types of power plants: 300 megawatts (MW) dependable (not installed)

capacity of coal and geothermal baseload; 700MW of intermediate load hydro plants and 350MW of oilfired/diesel powered peaking power plants.

Considering this, the decision as to which power plants should take priority in construction should not be based on type but rather on the least-cost power plant, regardless of type.

The least cost power plants in Mindanao at present are the Agus III hydroelectric power plant in Lanao de Norte and the large multipurpose hydro plants on the Pulangi, Cagayan, and Agusan rivers.

But a former energy official, (who prefers to remain anonymous) also familiar with the Mindanao situation disagrees.

“The development of hydro power nowadays is becoming an expensive proposition both technically and socially. The notion of low price hydro is already a myth today,” he noted. “Environmental costs for hydro is staggering, one day eclipsing the fossil based ones. To my knowledge, Norway, during winter months when the water become ice, depends on nuclear plants. It’s only the when ice thaws, that water becomes available for hydro plants.”

However, while Mr. Navarro agrees the social and financial development costs of hydro could be a constraint, fiscal incentives may be granted by government to address it.

“Although coal has more negatives, developing hydros will also have social costs including possible displacement of residents living along lake shorelines. Hydros cost more to build than coal; therefore initial costs could be a tough hurdle for investors. They take longer to construct- investors will have to wait longer for returns on their investments.

In order to entice investors, the government might have to provide incentives.”

On another aspect, Mr. Tauli cautions planners to consider the nature of the problem facing the present Mindanao grid in their future plans: i.e., how it is Energy, rather than Power Constrained.

“This means that there is a limit to the quantity of energy (kilowatt-hours) that can be generated annually, while the amount of power (kilowatts) that can be generated during peak-load periods can be increased suitably to meet peak demands or operating reserve requirements.”

Mr. Tauli said Mindanao’s present power supply system is Energy Constrained because of the operating characteristic of the hydro plants on the Agus River, which is determined by the operating procedure of the hydro plants established by the annual Rule Curve for Lake Lanao.

The Energy-Constrained nature of the power supply system in Mindanao also

requires that the decision for the next power plant to be constructed should be based on least-cost rather than type of power plant, which are the large hydro power plants, and not coalfired power plants, as the DOE insists.

“I support the Construction of Big/Large Hydro Plants, rather than CoalFired Base Load Plants, especially if such Big Hydro Plants could be coupled with a Big Dam” said Nestor Degoma, president of the Lanao Power Consumers Federation (LAPOCOF) and the Power Alternative Agenda-Mindanao (PALAGMindanao). “Provided, that it would not cause so much dislocations to the surrounding communities and with minimal impact on food production to store storm-water on rainy days to supplement power during the dry months.”

But the former energy official cited earlier does not share Mr. Degoma’s optimism.

“Hydro is already done for Mindanao. Long overdue na ang acceptance for Mindanao to bite the bullet and take the true cost of power as a way of life. The stark truth is no investor wants to come Mindanao and lose money. In Luzon and Visayas, their true power cost is on a level very much higher than ours, yet, it has long been accepted, no qualms, no big deal. They make noise only when there are adjustments every now and then, approved by ERC,” he noted.

A compromise would serve Mindanao better, according to Mr. Navarro.

“Overall, the country (and Mindanao) would benefit if we have more capacity than demand. The basic law of supply and demand will drive prices down. Right now, IPPs are racing to build coal plants because they’re cheaper, faster to build and can earn very good returns. Once power supply equals demand, there will be a slowdown in building more. If developers are required to build both coal and hydro, then capacity would increase.”

But Mr. Julian insists hydro should not be operated as base-load.

“The idea is to build coal as the base-load plants and maintain the existing hydro as the peakers and intermediate supply,” Mr. Julian noted.

Stupidity... from page 5

Today’s technologies lean towards nuclear power regardless of the arguments for or against it but our decision makers who are obviously not in tune with science and research refuse to accept the leaps and bounds attained.

Nuclear energy espoused by former Congressman Mark Cojuangco is all so revealing yet his adversaries refuse to lend an ear to it.

Now if only they open up to some education to address their concerns, they

may just serve the people who put them in office. But sadly, the answer is NO! These KIA’s (know-italls) only retard our development and our competitiveness. Imagine 2012 and we still have long exasperating brown-outs if no power at all in remote Barangays. The days of the Cory regime characterized by long brown-outs are back with a vengeance.

Do these lawmakers and administrators of our country even know how to use a calculator, a TV remote, the computer, surf the net for information – or for that matter take time-out to read up on developing technologies? Our leaders are tasked and mandated to lead our country towards prosperity to improve the lives of the Filipino people at large.

Are they successful with the wide spread brownouts now plaguing Mindanao and soon possibly even our business hubs?

Should higher prices be the objective of the delay for consumer acceptance is likewise unacceptable!

As it is, we already enjoy the highest cost of power within our region. Ladies and Gentlemen in positions, it is your duty and responsibility to restore power immediately and to erect these needed power plants ASAP! ---harrytambuatco@yahoo. com

G. Montejo has been invited to be the keynote speaker for the opening rites on Saturday, April 21st with a response to be delivered by MIAP National President Virgilio Lanzuela.

Mr. Paras said MIAP is a trade association of firms engaged in metalworking and related activities that was organized in 1978 to answer the need for a body that can represent the metalworking industry sector.

“We envision MIAP as an association that can provide services and assistance to its members in order to effectively compete in both the local and global industry arenas,” said 2012 National Convention Chairman Almarco C. Brito, one of the founding members of the host chapter.

Mr. Brito said MIAP’s mis-

sion is to work for the development of a truly progressive and dynamic metalworking association that can firmly support the needs of its members and stands as the backbone of the various industries.

“Its primary objectives are to unite all entities involved in the field of metalworking and allied engineering industries and to achieve development and growth of the Philippine metalworking industry sector,” he added.

As of January 2012, MIAP has 18 provincial/city chapters with an aggregate of 332 member companies. The Metro Manila chapter has the biggest number of members with 75, followed by Cagayan de Oro with 26, Cebu (25) and Davao (23).

All chapters are autonomous and are free to pursue their own

projects and activities provided these do not run counter to the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the association.

The National Board of Trustees coordinates all chapters and liaisons with government on policy matters and issues affecting the metalworking sector.

Among MIAP’s activities are the following: • Working for the stabilization and rationalization of the market for machines and fabricated metal products.

• Establishing product standards in cooperation with accredited technical/professional societies and appropriate government agencies.

• Promoting exports.

• Disseminating industry information through seminars and symposiums.

• Participating in local and

international conventions and symposiums, and trade fairs related to metalworking.

• Organizing/participating in exhibits/trade fairs (domestic and international).

• Compiling data and information on capabilities and markets of the industry.

• Promoting and encouraging complementation in the use of production facilities to maximize efficiencies and capacity utilizations.

• Cooperating and working with government instrumentalities in the formulation of policies that would promote the development and growth of Philippine metalworking firms.

• Training industry personnel.

• Cooperating with educational institutions for more relevant curricula.

at any given time, without compromising the condition of the entire network,” NGCP Spokesperson Atty.

Cynthia P. Alabanza said.

Alabanza reiterated that assumptions on the integration level are still dependent on the availability and sufficiency of regulating reserves. The said capacities may be increased only if additional

regulating reserve will be made available.

Alabanza added that developing technical certification and considering the mandatory technical requirements are important to the development of RE. Renewable energy facilities should meet certain technical requirements prior to their commissioning.

Renewable energy generating units are powered by location-specific energy sources which make the availability of generated capacity inherently variable, erratic, and uncontrollable. Under RA 9513, the following renewable energy sources are considered intermittent: wind, solar, run-of-river hydro, and ocean energy.

Clash... from page 9

Eugenio Osias, a spokesman for the 4th Infantry Division.

He said troops recovered at least three automatic weapons left behind by fleeing rebels and that the military has ordered a pursuit operation.

“There is an ongoing pursuit operation to capture the rebels who are harassing civilians and military forces in the area,” Osias said.

He said troops are running after some 50 rebels under a still unknown leader.

The NPA has been fighting for the past four five decades for the establishment of a Maoist state in the country.

Government peace talks with rebels had collapsed after Manila rejected demands by communist leaders to unconditionally free of all political prisoners languishing in jails across the Philippines. (Mindanao Examiner)

Gift...

from page 4

looks like she is still in her 20’s. She is a total stranger and I was shocked as to how she knew many things about me. She knows I have two big moles at my back.

She knew about my grandfather Dongkis who cried during the day of my Christening way back in 1981 and she advised me to put a picture of grandpa in my house. She told me that I bring luck to places that I grace with my presence and of course she knows about my gift.

If the religious and Protestants would encounter people with such gifts, I bet their initial move is christen them or to scare them out of their wits, or call their attention that the gift is from the devil. Why can’t people respect other people’s special abilities?

People who are blessed with such gifts often succumb to fear because of other people’s judgment. I do not believe that such gift would come from the devil for even prophets possess such gifts.

To people who have gifts, I want to tell you not to dare give up on your gift because it is who you are and you should never deny that. Special gifts allow you to help people in ways that others cannot and you should respect it, learn from it, take care of it, and never hide it. Having special gifts allow you to protect and heal. Until the next Jibber Jabber.

Joke... from page 5

He said he hasn’t. He pulled out an old card and told me that it was no longer valid because SSS is issuing a new universal ID. We looked at each other and silently agreed that for an entity who gets monthly premiums from all working

persons in the country, you would think they can at least issue you an ID ASAP. I looked up the new universal ID scheme in the hopes that seven months would be properly justified by our dear government and thus, worth the wait, despite the fact that all reason and logic in me is defying that hypothesis.

Apparently, in March 2011, the SSS, GSIS, Philhealth and Pag-ibig Fund launched a universal multipurpose identification system or UMID. The universal ID will allow the agencies to integrate their services.

(Wow, they need an ID for that?!) Then SSS President Emilio de Quiros Jr. was quoted in news report as saying that the universal ID

will do away with multiple ID requirements. It will contain basic and biometric information, and the database will be securely managed by the National Statistics Office (NSO).

This all sounds like a joke. If government is merging its related services like social security and home loans, why do we have to suffer and wait for the issuance of the IDs? Don’t they have a printer? A scanner?

Software for filling up the blanks? Maybe not.

And with all due respect to the NSO, which will always be the census center of the country, it has become so inefficient and cumbersome in issuing a document as basic as a birth certificate that we all now

votes to boot Corona out of the Supreme Court?

We must take note that an acquittal for Corona will mean a serious setback for President Aquino and his campaign for transparency in government and adherence to the “daang from page 5 matuwid.”

Some say that an acquittal a conviction vote. But please, don’t ask me why? The next may render him a lame duck easier one to sway over is Al- President and the LP senatorial lan Peter Cayetano. He maybe slate may be in for a massacre in need of the administration in the 2013 elections.

The impeachment trial, machinery and some logistical support to clinch a re-election. therefore, is a must win for If we look at it a little deeper, the President otherwise his the status at present maybe campaign against graft and at 7 for conviction and six for corruption will do down the acquittal. The question now drain as in kaput or effectively would be which will be a lot made one big fat failure!

This is where his political easier, for Corona to get two or more votes for acquittal or adviser, the one caught buying for the prosecution and Pnoy fake compact discs, should to marshal at least eight more display his savvy in political

turn to the private sector, namely Teleserv, Inc., to do that. I hope Teleserv soon offers government services, too. Maybe then, I’ll be able to get my ID in a jiffy.
