PNoy fails to advance green goals AS the world observes this year’s annual Earth Day celebration, Greenpeace lamented the failing performance of the Aquino administration on the environmental front, citing the last two years under the Aquino leadership as a period marked by lackadaisical enforcement of environmental laws and a troubling presidential pattern of reneging on previous commitments to advance green goals.

The group came up with this assessment after reviewing the administration’s current track record on environmental issues vis a vis the declarations made by then Senator Benigno Aquino III in the Green Electoral Initiative (GEI) GREEN/PAGE 7

A MEMBER of the Senate was appealing public support for the speedy arrest of three high profile fugitives who had remained at large after the court issued warrants for their arrest.

Senator Gregorio Honasan said law enforcers need public assistance for the government to arrest high-profile fugitives, among them, Dinagat Island Rep. Ruben Ecleo Jr., who was recently convicted of parricide for the death of his wife, Alona Bacolod-Ecleo in 2002.

A regional court in Cebu last April 11 convicted Ecleo, “supreme master” of the Philippine Benevolent Missionaries Association (PBMA), and meted him a jail term of up to 40 years. He was also ordered to pay the family of the victim P 26.3 million in damages.

Ecleo’s conviction came after a 10-year trial, under seven judges and amid the “death of 25 people.” Alona’s parents and two siblings, as well as private prosecutor APPEAL/PAGE 2

Groups, studes challenge schools to open accounting books to justify tuition hikes

By ANNE MARXZE D. UMIL of Bulatlat.com

Last of two-part series “FACING the threat of education being reduced to a mere commodity for the privileged, the youth could no longer afford to remain silent and unconcerned.

Various youth groups and

student councils in the country are challenging their schools to open accounting books and to justify tuition increases. We are not afraid to challenge them on this because it is our right to do so, and it is the administration’s respon-

sibility to be forthright,” Baguisi said.

The NUSP has initiated a Tuition Monitor (TM) desk in order to look into increases in school fees for the incoming academic year and also to gather reports about sham consultations.

The TM desk is where students/parents/concerned

individuals can report fee increases, improper or lack of consultation, and other related matters.

“We have also initiated an alliance against tuition and other fee increases (ToFI). Students are coming up with creative ways to show their discontent and rejection of tuition and other

fee increases. They are also becoming more involved in studying the school’s finances and asserting their rights as stakeholders in the school,” Baguisi said.

Palatino shared some facts about current existing guidelines that students may invoke when confronted by TUITION/PAGE 6

Ecleo’s lawyer, Orlando Salatandre, said though that his client would appeal the RTC’s decision before the Court of Appeals.

Before that, Ecleo was also found guilty in absentia of graft charges by the Sandiganbayan.

Honasan said there are other prominent wanted persons at large, referring to Palawan former Governor Joel Reyes and retired Maj. Gen. Jovito Palparan. ”If we want the government to be effective, we (public) give them full support, mobility and information,” he said. ”We even have a wanted Australian national, recently arrested, and who had been hiding in our country for five years,” he said.

In the past, Honasan was also a fugitive of the law for rebellion and sedition charges for his involvement in several coup attempts during the administration of former President Corazon Aquino.

imprisoned, pardoned and won a seat in the senate in 1995, 2001 and 2007.

In Butuan City, the Caraga police has formed an elite force task force to arrest Ruben Ecleo, Jr., Philippine Benevolent Missionaries Association (PBMA) supreme leader and Dinagat Island Representative.

Caraga police regional director Chief Supt. Reynaldo S. Rafal said the Task Force was created in response to a directive for Ecleo’s immediate arrest by Philippine National Police (PNP)Chief Director General Nicanor Bartolome.

Rafal also issued appeal to the public to help authorities and give information to the police.

The Crusade Against Violence (CAV) said Ecleo’s conviction of parricide for the death of his wife Alona Bacolod-Ecleo in 2002 has boosted the morale of other families seeking justice.

In Manila, Justice Secretary Leila de Lima directed the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to help in the hunt for Ecleo who has been in hiding since last year after the Sandiganbayan convicted him of three counts of graft regarding questionable infrastructure projects during his stint as mayor of San Jose town, Dinagat from 1991 to 1994 Still loved by Dinagat folks and officials, Ecleo’s relatives, supporters and religious followers are all behind him despite the court decision convicting their leader over the killing of his wife.

Dinagat Vice Governor Jade Villaroman-Ecleo called on the PBMA to “pray for Master.” “I hope the person who is really guilty would be punished. Master does not deserve to be punished this way!

The real mastermind should rot in jail. I love you, Master,” she said.

A part of PBMA’s executive letter circulated this week reads: “The unfavorable judgment of the Regional Trial Court (RTC), Cebu City, is not yet final and executory.

The justice system of our Republic provided us an option of mechanism for due process. We have 10 days to file our motion for reconsideration to make an appeal to the Court of Appeals, and on top of that, there is a highest tribunal of the land, the Supreme Court, that could hear our quest for truth and justice for our Supreme President, Master Ruben B.

Census shows decreasing Maguindanao population COTABATO City––The population of Maguindanao province dropped in 2010 compared to its 2007 census data, the National Statistics Office said.

Razulden Mangelen, said the 2007 population of Maguindanao was 1,273,715 while after the census in May-June 2010, the data showed the province has only 944,718 inhabitants.

According to Mangelen, the NSO-Maguindanao provincial office had conducted a series of validation and

counter-checking activities to ensure that the data were correct and accurate.

Sultan Kudarat municipality has the highest number of people among Maguindanao’s 36 municipalities with 121,324 in 2007. Its population, after the 2010 census, was only 82,758 or a decrease of 38,476, data from NSO Maguindanao show.

Coming in second was Shariff Aguak, which had 70,340 people in the 2007 census but had only 35,964 inhabitants in the 2010 cen-

sus or a decrease of 34,376.

The population in Parang town in the 2007 census was 102,247 but in the 2010 data, it has only 73,247 or a decrease in population of 29,000.

Mangelen could not explain to reporters why the data in some towns had been reduced but admitted a study is still being conducted on the cause of an increased population in the 2007 census.

He and his staff were also scheduled to meet with the local executives of three

towns to explain the process taken and its implication.

Some local mayors may be angered by the 2010 census because it will affect in the amount of Internal Revenue Allotment.

The province was under the leadership of Maguindanao Gov. Andal Ampatuan Sr who, along with his sons, are now facing multiple murder charges in connection with the Maguindanao massacre in 2009 that left 57 people killed. WITH WIRE REPORT

Typhoon Sendong victims in the gov’t receives assistance

C

AGAYAN DE ORO CITY – EXACTLY three months since typho on S endong has wrought havoc in the city, financial support amounting to around P 300,000 has been poured in to victims, particularly those under the auspices of the Department of Agriculture Regional Field Office (DA-10) thru 2nd district Congressman Honorable Rufus B. Rodriguez.

During the formal turnover of assistance, a total of 156 employees were conferred with cash assistance worth P 2,000 each.

Of which, 60 employees came from DA-10 while the remaining are from the department’s attached bureaus and agencies: Philippine Coconut Authority (12), Bureau of Agricultural Statistics (6), Bureau of Plant Industry (4), National Dairy Authority (2), Fiber Development Authority (1), National Irrigation Administration (49) and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (22).

Leading the occasion is DA-10 Regional Executive Director Lealyn AbellanosaRamos, who conveyed her utmost gratefulness that she along with the employees in attendance has managed to surmount the hurdles as a consequence of the recent catastrophe, and has importantly, emerged as a survivor.

Moreso, she revealed

that she hasn’t been much expectant that the agency would obtain help for its employees, considering that there are other typhoon victims who have gone through more devastating conditions such as losing both their homes and their respective source of income. Nevertheless, she extended her sincerest appreciation of the enduring efforts exerted by Cong. Rodriguez to handout financial support to the department’s employees.

For his part, Cong.

Rodriguez expressed that the office hasn’t only been largely responsible for the advancement of the agricultural sector in his district of responsibility, but to the whole region as well. He added that it’s only apt to return the favor to those employees who have vigorously dedicated and committed themselves for the betterment of region’s populace, especially those marginalized farmers in rural communities.

In return, Dir. Ramos articulated her indebtedness to Cong. Rodriguez in the form of giving out three boxes, consisting packets of assorted vegetable seeds.

She added that in this way, the congressman would be able to expand his reach in lending a hand to more people while also assuming the role of being an ally of the department in conveying brighter impact to the

underprivileged segments ries have commonly uttered financial assistance be- a traumatic calamity such of the society. their warmest thanks to stowed to them would allow as the typhoon Sendong. # In closing, the beneficia- Cong. Rodriguez as the them to move ahead from (Joanne L. Olson, DA-10)

No special treatment on arrested Taiwanese, Chinese DAVAO City––The 72 Taiwanese and six Chinese nationals arrested for international financial fraud were not given special treatment at the Davao City Police Office (DCPO), Acting City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte said.

“We are duty bound to afford and to give them their basic legal rights. Their rights to remain silent and their rights to have lawyers,” Duterte said.

He was reacting to allega-

tions that the foreigners were given special treatment because the women are being held inside a conference room while the men are inside a training classroom of the DCPO. Duterte said he is also protecting the relationship between the Philippines and Taiwan.

“There are lots of Filipinos outside our country who are in Taiwan. What if the same thing happens to the Filipinos

there? What we are doing is not special treatment. We are just upholding their rights,” Duterte said.

He said based on the Philippine laws, the local authorities can hold the foreign nationals for reasons that they came here as tourists, so they are not supposed to work in the city. They do not have permit from the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) and they

do not have business permit.

Meanwhile, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) charged the 72 Taiwanese nationals arrested as undesirable aliens after the Taiwanese government cancelled their passports.

Ma. Antonette Mangrobang, BI spokesperson, said their office found the 72 respondents as undesirable aliens for being undocumented following the cancellation of their passports.

The Taipei Economic Culture Office (TECO) in the Philippines sent a letter addressed to BI Commissioner Ricardo David Jr. that they have already cancelled the passports of the apprehended Taiwanese nationals.

Joint elements of DCPO and Taiwanese police arrested them in separate raids on their hideouts in the city on April 18.

Twenty-eight were arrested at Villa Josefina subdivision in Ma-

tina; 17 at Ladislawa Village in Buhangin, and 33 at Valgonzons Compound on Diversion Road.

DCPO, along with three Taiwanese policemen, submitted their affidavit complaint before Prosecutor Serafica Weis on Friday for violation of Republic Act (RA) 8484, otherwise known as Access Devices Regulation Act of 1998, in relation to RA 8792 (Electronic Commerce Act). CD WITH WIRE REPORT

Above the law THINK a minute.

Does a thief steal because he’s a thief? Or, is he a thief because he steals?

Studies show that over 80 percent of criminals who have been in prison and then freed after serving their time are back in prison for the same crime in less than one year!

So back to our question: Does a thief steal because he’s a thief? Or, is he a thief because he steals?

The answer: he steals because he’s a thief. We do what we do because of what we are inside.

Jesus said that you and I can still be a murderer even if we don’t murder anyone.

If we hate somebody and wouldn’t mind if someone else killed that person, then we also are a murderer in our heart.

Jesus said that if we lust and desire to have sex with

Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst someone who’s not our wife or husband, then we’ve already committed adultery because in our heart we are an adulterer.

Jesus’ way of living is far above the law.

It goes beyond just the minimum, small requirements of the law which simply try to keep society civil.

But God did not create you and me just so we would not cheat or steal from our enemy.

He designed us to love our enemy. Jesus knows

that if we truly love and care about a person, then we don’t need a law to keep us from cheating or stealing from them!

When you and I do something good to impress and look good in front of others, Jesus sees and judges our wrong heart and motives even for doing those good things.

Jesus wants us to do them because we genuinely love Him and others, not for our own self-centered pride and good image in front of people.

You’re probably thinking: “If Jesus’ commands are that high above the law, then is anyone that good and perfect?!”

Of course not! No one is! That’s exactly why Jesus came: to finally change our heart and character inside.

The law can only punish us for our crime, but it cannot change us on the inside. Jesus came to finally take the dishonest thief out of us, so to speak.

So why not ask Jesus to forgive you for your wrong heart and way of living right now?

Ask Him to start changing you inside into a new person.

It’s only with His character and nature in charge of your heart, that you can finally enjoy the freedom of living above the law for the rest of your life.

Just Think a Minute.

Why the Earth is heating up?

First of two parts THE HEATING up of planet Earth is what we call ‘global warming.’ The phrase is now a household figure of speech. However, do we really know why ‘global warming’ occurs? In deference to Earth Day celebration, let us take a glimpse of this spine-tingling phrase ‘global warming.’

As far as planet Earth is con- Cris Diaz cerned, the rise or fall of ‘atmospheric temperature’ has serious outcome. It is true that many parts of Earth have temperature higher than the average temperature that we used to live with. On the other hand, some places are colder than one thinks.

While there are places on Earth where temperature rise as much as 40 degrees at noon, there are also places on Earth where the temperature closes at negative 20 degrees during winter.

Nonetheless, there are inhabitants in both places. In other words, living organisms (including humans) adapt to their habitat as a rule of survival.

Nevertheless, ‘global warming’ is different. If unchecked, places were temperature seemed normal at 40 degrees, may rise to 42 degrees or more. In areas where winter records a negative 20 degrees, may now become negative 18 degrees or lower. In this case, the planet is heating up. Folks, a rise, or fall in temperatures at one

or two degrees will have serious consequences on all living organisms including Humans.

Why the Earth is heating up? The cause of this is what we called ‘greenhouse effect.’ ‘Greenhouse effect’ is actually the mother of ‘global warming.’ A ‘greenhouse’ occurred when the ‘infrared heat’ from the Sun is trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere. In other words, the infrared heat is not freed due to pollutants in the Earth’s atmosphere.

What is infrared heat? To make it simpler, just imagine seating inside an idle car where its doors and windows are closed. Inside the car, the sun’s light could not get inside the car because of the roof. However, the longer the car stays under the heat of the sun, the hotter the temperature inside the car would be. Certainly, a person seating inside the car would be susceptible to heat stroke that could lead to his death.

The sun’s light seen outside the car is the ‘visible light’ while the light inside the car is the ‘infrared light.’

Since the car’s windows and doors are closed, the ‘infrared light’ that causes extreme heat is trapped inside the car. That explains ‘greenhouse’ effect pregnant with ‘global warming.’

Why does the sun’s ‘infrared light’ is trapped on Earth’s atmosphere? Pollutants trapped the infrared light on Earth’s atmosphere. What are these pollutants?

Please take note. These pollutants are things or objects that emit energy or where energy is released. Electricity is one of the sources of pollution.

Tragedies in democracy DEMOCRACY is not that so expensive. But, what people think when tragedies are getting more and more existing in a country struggling for democracy?

Here are the tragedies happening in a country under the process of achieving the real democracy in my country. Again, in Indonesia there have been two tragedies DR. DJUWARI recently. The first one is STIE Perbanas (College of human-made. The second Economics and Business) is social condition and also Surabaya, Indonesia human-made.

The first tragedy was—and still going on—the motor gang that is so brutal. This makes the Jakarta people scared. The attack was so sudden and conducted during the night. The target was initially the restaurant but recently the hotel. It is really terrifying. The more unbelievable is that it is suspected that such a gang and brutality was not done by merely the ordinary people.

What terrible thing is it? The people are presently scared.

The second is concerned with education affairs. This week, it is the national exam started by the national

education commission. Some rumors have been spread away throughout the country in Indonesia about the leaking answer key.

Due to this classic problem, people from region to region throughout this country have made a polemic around this “leaking answer key.”

Of course, such a rumor has made the society especially parents get anxious. Because of this, people get angry and they tend to think that national examination is not fair for some. What is behind this?

But then, that is a country under the process of struggling to survive from the impact of a reform. That is the cost for paying the “price” of democracy. In some TV programs, democracy is made fun by some people, and they have changed this term into “demo crazy,” What has been done so far for achieving the life of being in democracy tends to make all crazy. Any thing can be done without thinking whether it is against the law or not.

What we can do then for the lay men? As ordinary people who are still struggling for getting a meager meal for today and perhaps the next, such tragedies have not been in their concern. They just wish to work hard in order to have their family find the basic needs. They must be strikingly different from what have been done as the “tragedy makers” above. Especially, those are the DEMOCRACY/PAGE 7

HE DIED LAST WEEK A guy phones up his Boss, but gets the bosses’ wife instead. “I’m afraid he died last week.” she explains.

The next day the man calls again and asks for the boss.

“I told you” the wife replies, “he died last week.”

The next day he calls again and once more asks to speak to his boss. By this time the wife is getting upset and shouts, “I’VE ALREADY TOLD YOU TWICE, MY HUSBAND, YOUR BOSS, DIED LAST WEEK! WHY DO YOU KEEP CALLING?” “Coz,” he replied laughing, “I just love hearing it...”

FOOD FOR THOUGHT Take care, the Lord will strengthen each step along the way. Take time and let God’s Spirit guide you gently day-by-day. Take courage for the Lord has power to help you deal and grow. Take heart because love of God will never let you go. (Atty. Vic Carillo, APO Fraternity and Sorority, Cagayan de Oro City)

ASSET-CDO shines in Arnis encounter THE Cagayan de Oro City ASSET-in-Ar nis Te am proved their supremacy over top competing teams in the region as they emerged as the overall champion in the 1st Mayor Vicente Y. Emano Cup Invitational Arnis Encounter 2012 held recently at the SM City Atrium here.

ASSET-in-Arnis Training Director Leo A. Villegas said the top team captured a total of 44 medals to bag the championship title as it pocketed 19-11-14 gold, silver and bronze medals, respectively.

Strike Lead, which will serve as a venue for organizations to release their media advisories, schedule of activities, analyses and other materials about student issues. Strike Lead was launched in September last year during the height of budget cuts. In the No to ToFI campaign, Strike Lead will be a center for monitoring tuition increases in schools around the country with reports coming from students.

Various indoor protests have also been conducted in different schools. Progressive student and youth organizations like Anakbayan, NUSP and League of Filipino Students also conducting protests actions and picket rallies against tuition and other fee increases.

“Amid the worsening economic crisis, Aquino hasn’t made a move to regulate fee increases and the Ched is nothing but a toothless institution. They are left watching businesses that milk the students and parents of hard earned money in exchange for education.

This is what everything has come to, education is definitely now a commodity,” said Gemma Canalis, spokeswoman of the LFS. The youth and students organizations called for a moratorium on tuition and miscellaneous fee increases. (http://bulatlat.com)

from page 1

unjust increases: – Schools cannot implement tuition and other fee increases without conducting consultations with stakeholders (students, teachers, employees, etc.)

- Tuition increases for incoming freshmen are not exempted from consultations. Appropriate consultations with parents, students, alumni, etc. must be conducted - Schools with autonomous or deregulated status are not exempted from conducting consultations - State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) are also not exempted from tuition consultations.

- The absence of proper consultation is ground for cancelation of the fee increase Palatino also encouraged the youth and concerned sectors to report questionable increases to Kabataan Party-list’s “Tuition Hotline” numbers (0926-1703655 and 3521054).

Different private schools have also formed alliances like the Alliance of La Sallian students against tuition and other fee increases. UST also launched its campaign against the six percent increase in their tuition fee.

Robin Nievera, son of Pops and Martin, forges own path in music

By KARL R. DE MESA of InterAksyon.com Robin Nievera, the eldest son of OPM icons Martin and Pops, refuses to concern himself with the inevitable comparisons now that he is a recording artist himself.

The debut album he has just released under Polyeast Records shows that the 25-year-old singer-songwriter is forging his own path in music even as he notes that all the inspiration came from mom and dad.

“My parents are the ones who started all of this,” he says. “I have been watching them for 25 years. And I couldn’t help but be inspired by what they do.”

Robin cares little for the inevitable comparisons that will meet his entry into the field where his parents’ legacies loom large.

“I wasn’t just their son, I was also a huge fan,” he declares. “I may not sound like them and may not be writing ballads but I did learn a lot from them.”

His album is called Overwait “because I’m 25,” he explains, “and I have been planning this album since I was 15.”

The 10-year gestation for his recording debut took an interesting side trip two

years ago when he was chosen as one of Studio 23’s MYX VJs. He confesses it was a great way for him to step into the limelight since he also had a passion for hosting like his father.

“I enjoyed meeting my favorite Filipino artists while being a MYX VJ. And I made a lot of friends in the music industry. MYX really showed a lot of who

I am,” he says.

So now it’s his turn to be heard.

From the get-go, it is clear that he is not taking the same pop-star route taken by his parents after they met and fell in love on the set of the ‘80s show “Penthouse Live!”

This Nievera is a singersongwriter who performs with a guitar.

Overwait is filled with graceful, proficient guitar work on steel acoustic, bluesy vocals, and heartin-hand lyrics.

The album contains 10 tracks penned by Robin himself and filled with his diverse influences like The Beatles, Incubus, Dave Matthews Band and Bon Iver.

He shows an eclectic palette filled with passionate commitment and some very adept guitar work.

This is for any nation anywhere to learn about the tragedies above. They are the lesson learned. But, it is dangerous when people around the world think that democracy is very expensive.

The price of democracy must not that so expensive if the government being elected is not from the money politics. This is because there is no panacea of the impact of “demo crazy” except the people is all aware that money politics is the source of being crazy.

ronmental governance, such gains are being eroded by the lax enforcement of existing policies such as the Clean air Act and the Renewable Energy law,” said Von Hernandez, Executive Director of Greenpeace Southeast Asia.

“Moreover, instad of pushing for the massive uptake of renewable energy as he promised, he is exacerbating the country’s dependence on expensive and polluting fossil fuels,” said Hernandez adding, “Aquino’s administration’s aggressive pro-coal agenda for Mindanao at the expense of clean, renewable alternatives is the biggest disappointment.”

“At best, we can describe PNoy’s environmental performance as middling, which only goes to show that the environment is not a priority

under his government,” said.

He added: “In the two years that have passed, the President’s commitments have either remained in the realm of rhetoric, or have been undermined by contradicting policies or actions of the national government.”

Greenpeace cited the issue of sustainable agriculture where Aquino had pledged to provide incentives to enourage the shift to sustainable agriculture practices, such as organic farming and the establishment of national targets to reduce the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers.

Yet chipping away at this sustainable agriculture agenda is the Bureau of Plant Industry’s loose and cavalier policy allowing the introduction and commericlaization

of genetically modified crops into the country.

In the area of solid waste management, the Aquino administration has yet to make significant inroads to expand the number of local governments and barangays faithfully implementing the mandatory waste segregation and materials recovery objectives of the Ecological Waste Management Act. The EcoWaste Coalition estimates that of the more than 40,000 barangays nationwide, less than 10 percent are implementing the law.

As for the RE law, Aquino’s Department of Energy has effectively stranded its full implementation by allowing discussions on the feed-intariff (FIT) rates for renewable energy to drag on, while permits were being given to

coal power plant proposals.

Lamentably, Aquino has also subverted his winning policy for the environment, which was his issuance of Executive Order (EO) 23, the “Total Log Ban”, by exempting mining projects from the ban’s coverage.

Aquino’s lax stance on coal power, GMOs and mining have put him at odds with environmentalists and sustainable development advocates who had hoped to see major shifts in enevironmental performance and management in his term of office.

“President Aquino still has four years in office. What does he want to leave behind as his legacy? We challenge his government to move away from the dirty development path and move towards a green development pathway

8 News In Focus Philippines, world’s most disaster-hit country in 2011 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 25, 2012

www.mindanaodailybalita.com

THE Philippines topped the list of countries most frequently hit by natural disasters in 2011, the Citizens’ Disaster Response Center (CDRC) reported.

Carlos Padolina, CDRC’s Deputy Executive Director, cited the records of the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED) which showed that of the 302 natural disasters that happened worldwide, 33 occurred in the

Philippines.

CDRC is a partner of CRED, a World Health Organization collaborating center based in Brussels, Belgium, which maintains the Emergency Events Database (EM-DAT: The International Disaster Database).

CDRC revealed that if human-induced disasters like armed conflict and fire were included, the total number of

disaster occurrence in 2011 will reach 431. This is a more than 50% increase from the 2010 figure of only 202 disaster events recorded. CDRC maintains its own disasters database, monitoring both natural and human-induced disasters.

Padolina added that these natural and human-induced disasters combined affected more than 3 million families

or 15.3 million people, and caused over Php 26 billion in economic damages. This is a major leap from last year’s only 6.75 million people affected.

The Philippines also placed third in the list of countries most affected by natural disasters in 2011 with 11.7 million people affected. Previously, the country placed only 5th on that list.

Padolina said the Philip-

pines’ ranking came not as a surprise since Tropical Storm Sendong (Washi), one of the worst disasters that hit the country, happened late last year.

In terms of casualties, the Philippines came second to Japan with 1,924 people killed.

More than 1,400 of these were due to tropical storm Sendong.

“The challenge for us is to reduce the impact of disasters

on our lives,” Padolina said.

“No matter how frequent these calamities might occur, as long as we are prepared, we can bounce right back.”

CDRC is a non-government organization that pioneered and continues to promote community-based disaster management in the Philippines.

It operates nationwide through a network of regional centers and people’s organizations.
