Lawmaker hits PNoy’s Executive Order 79 A PROGRESSIVE lawmaker condemned Executive Order 79 saying that it gives more room for mining companies to commit abuses against the environment and communities. President Benigno Aquino III yesterday issued EO 79 allegedly to institute reforms in the mining industry. Partylist Rep. Antonio L. Tinio said that “there is nothing new in PNoy’s ‘new mining policy.’ EO 79 maintains the same regime tried and tested by largescale mining companies under his wing, and even improves it.” Tinio noted that EO 79 demeans the authority of local governments over mining activities within their respective jurisdictions while it cedes vast discretion to the Mining Industry Coordinating Council (MICC). “In the past, LGUs served as some form of restraint against excesses of these firms. Some heed the alarm raised by communities on the threats caused to environment and the locals by imposing moratoriums on mining activities in their respective areas. HITS/PAGE 9

BUTUAN City––Flashfloods washed away a total of 11 houses in four hinterland villages situated near the Agusan River Sunday evening, belated report reaching urban center of Butuan said. The Butuan City Information Office in their report identified the three barangays as barangays Camayahan, Tag-abaca, Lemon and Salvacion. Report from Butuan City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (CDRRMC) claimed two houses were destroyed af-
ter huge logs carried by strong flashflood current hit them while four houses were washed away by strong current in barangay Camayahan, this city.

destroyed. CDRRMC identified the owners of destroyed houses in barangay Salvacion as Danilo Lugsong, Espandonis Atanog, Alolan Ybañez, Crisencio “Sencis” Andihuyan and Manuel “Manny” Dejarlo. In barangay Tag-abaca, the house owned by Evelyn Dayuc was also damaged by flash floods, CDRRMC reported.

TAGUM City, Davao del Norte––The Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council of Davao del Norte now has a Swiss-made automatic rain gauge that is also capable of forecasting weather. PDRRMC Research and Planning in-charge Eric Rosillo said the automatic rain gauge which is a product of Meteomedia Organization of Switzerland, is also equipped with anemometer to measure wind speed, air pressure, humidity and ultraviolet rays. The rain gauge transmits data to the server of Weather Philippines Foundation with which Meteomedia Organization has tied up in showcasing such type of rain gauge. But the LGU has direct access to the weather readings because it is designed with a local monitoring screen which records the data it is sending to the server in Manila.

Rosillo said Davao del Norte is one of the 25 first batch of provinces where Meteomedia Organization has entrusted a unit of automatic rain gauge. The rain gauge is worth US$2,500 if purchased but Meteomedia Organization is distributing free units in the Philippines which it has chosen as a testing and showcasing site in Asian market. Meteomedia Organization has already produced as many as 480 units of such rain gauge in Switzerland and has produced about a hundred for Germany,
Rosillo said. The provincial government is interested to install such units in all towns in the province in its bid to strengthen early warning system. Rosillo explained that purchasing more units of such rain gauge to be stationed in all towns will complement with the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) weather monitoring as such provides local weather situation. jeanevive d. abangan of pia-11
Energy department policy to set health program for renewable energy workers By CARINA L CAYON
DAVAO City––A proposed safety and health policy to be imposed in all renewable energy (RE) facilities would ensure protection program for the workers. The health program and services for workers in RE facilities will be encapsulated in the occupational health requirements under the proposed Renewable Energy Safety, Health and Environment Rules and Regulations (RESHERR). The Department of Energy (DOE) is finalizing the guidelines which will be required in all RE ex-
ploration, development, utilization and system operations in the country. Lawyer Marissa Cerezo, DOE assistant director for Renewable Energy Management Bureau, said that RESHERR serves as policy guideline for RE operators, developers and contractors in ensuring safety and healthy environment and operations in the workplace. Rule 6 of RESHERR specifies the occupational health requirements that mandate every employer to provide health program and services for the employees.

Dad lashes at colleagues for approving ordinance in haste By ED N. MALIZA Correspondent
CAGAYAN de Oro City–– Opposition Councilor Roger Abaday yesterday lambasted his colleagues at the city council for approving Ordinance No. 11969-2011. Abaday said that after the city council approved the ordinance, the same ordinance is now the subject of an amendment merely because of the alleged violations committed by the other party. Problem is, the councilor said, the ordinance is hastily approved. “Ang rason ngano nga gidali-dali sa mga konsehales sa majority bloc ang maong ordinansa tungod kini sa sulat sa mayor nga urgent daw,” Abaday said. On April 1, 2011, Mayor Vicente Y. Emano wrote members of the city council pertaining to the contracts of lease by and between the city government of Cagayan de Oro with New Wishing Star Trading Corporation represented by its manager Jacky Ching, who is supposed to rent the second floor of Carmen public market and with 858 Market Complex represented by Shi Xu Bo, who is supposed to rent the second floor of Cogon public market, where the city mayor emphasized
ABADAY
BARBA
that his request to enter into contract as “urgent. “ On April 5, 2011 session then, the SP approved the ordinance. “Akong gihangyo ang akong mga kauban dinhi nga sa dili pa unta nato aprobahan ang mga ordinansa, ato una kini nga estudyohan pag-ayo ug dili kita magpadala anang urgent-urgent. Hinaut nga considerahon nato kini nga leksyon,” Abaday said. “Daan pa gyud ko adtong una. Nag-ingon ako nga ato una’ng ila-ilahon kung kinsa kining Ching kay diskompyado gyod ko kaayo. Ako nagtoo nga duha o tulo lang ka tawo ang nakasapi niini nga transaksyon,” city councilor Edgar Cabanlas on his part said. Abaday said the mayor and the majority bloc in the city council should treat the two contracts equally and
should not give one a favor. But Councilor Adrian Barba said that the news that came out on the papers is not really true. “Wishing Star Trading has started its business sometime in December 2011 so that the contract which is for 25 years should start on December 2011. However, because of several violations committed by the trading, the city government has decided to amend the contract,” Barba said. He said that Wishing Star Trading who has not paid any rental to the city government except the twomonth advance, sub-leased the area to Unitop General Merchandise, Inc. which is a major violation to the contract. Barba however said that the matter is now with the City Legal Office for appropriate action.

NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH There is nothing wrong in the creation of more barangays. On the contrary, it means that the city is expanding and growing. The plan of the city government to create more barangays is a welcome proposition. Cagayanons would be glad to see more barangays created. It would mean larger budget for these barangays. Newly created barangays would provide opportunities for growth in areas concerned. It would mean more services for the people. The city government could also serve better in consonance with its mandate. It is, however, unfortunate that some politicians, especially those opposed to the plan, are apathetic. Obviously, these politicians are trying to protect their political interests. With more barangays created, some politicians believed that they would lose the support of their constituents. While we, Cagayanons, welcome progressive legislations designed to enhance the city’s development, ambitious politicians negate these plans. The city government through the sterling leadership of Mayor Vicente Emano, the vice mayor and the City Council, should not be cowed by these unscrupulous politicians. After all, these nitwits have done nothing to improve the lives of their barangay constituents. Of course, with some exceptions, there are politicians masquerading as opposition at the city council who has not done anything for the common good. The Cagayanons are aware of pretentious politicians who sell antics like charlatans in flea markets. If Cagayan de Oro should become a trading center in Mindanao, Cagayanons should get rid of these politicians. We should unite to protect our common interest to develop a highly progressive city where people enjoy the fruits of their toils. Consequently, it is necessary that the city government expand its governance through the creation of more barangays. Creating more barangays is depopulating barangays with high population density. It is by dividing these highly populated barangays into several barangays that services are evenly distributed. Constituents of newly created barangays could also develop their areas into new growth areas in the future. It is, therefore, the common stand of the people of Cagayan de Oro to support the city government’s plan to new barangays. Actually, the plan to create new barangays should have been undertaken long time ago. MABUHAY ANG CAGAYANONS! MABUHAY ANG CAGAYAN DE ORO

Under the surface THINK a Minute… Remember Greg Louganis? The young, strong, superstar athlete who won gold medals in all his events at both the 1984 and 1988 Olympics. He was the first athlete in history to do it, and was elected to the Olympic Hall of Fame. But at the Olympics, no one ever suspected that under the surface Greg Louganis’ body was full of AIDS. It’s true that you really cannot know what’s inside a person just from looking on the outside. Many people are not what they appear to be. For example, that tough football or rugby player you know may actually still be an insecure little boy on the inside, because he could never be good enough for his hard, strict father. That
Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst shy young woman you see around town might still be a broken, hurting little girl, because she was abused by her uncle or stepfather when she was young. Maybe even that 60-year-old political leader or successful businessman is still full of hurt and anger from when he was badly treated as a child because of his skin color, or because he grew up in a poor family. Many people look strong
and mature on the outside, but inside they’re still hurting emotionally and need healing. They still have deep wounds, scars and painful memories of terrible things that were said or done to them when they were young children or teenagers. Friend, if you’ve been living with pain, fears or anger from what people said or did to you in the past, these hurts and bad memories can be like chains that hold you
in prison emotionally. Well, Jesus Christ sure knows how you feel. Jesus is probably the most hurt, abused person in history. His own family thought He was crazy, and His own people had Him tortured and killed as the worst of criminals. But not only does Jesus understand and feel your pain, He’s also the One Who can heal your broken heart and painful memories. So today, why don’t you put your whole life, including your painful past, into the strong, healing hands of Jesus? He’ll even help you forgive those people who hurt you. Then, you’ll finally be free from your emotional pain and prison to start living the full, new life Jesus has planned for you. Just Think a Minute…
The weakest political parties THE alliance of the Liberal Party and the Nacionalista Party is an unhealthy coalition. Somehow, one could discern the political motive of the marriage of LP and NP. At a distance, we could see the forging of a strong political party in the coming 2013 senatorial and local elections. Of course, that is what the LP and NP want to project. The political conspirators want to see a united political party for some reason Cris Diaz only few could possibly understand. Yes, only few could possibly understand because, as ordinary thinkers, we could only decipher what our five senses could attest. For instance, the common understanding is that a coalition of the ruling LP and NP would create a formidable political line-up. The indestructible idea would also trickle down to local candidates running under the coalition ticket. Can anyone imagine the chances of winning by a local candidate supported by the combined power of influential political parties? We could but project the endless logistical support of the two powerful political parties to their candidates in the provincial level. Thinking of the LP and NP coming together to field their combined armies in the political battlefield is as dreadful as one could think of defeat. Well, that is how it appears in the war room as LP and NP’s political lieutenants are map-
ping out political battle plans. That is also the common perception. What about if one would scrutinize the LP and NP’s coalition at a closer look? Would there be any difference as what an ordinary person sees it? Well, we thought there is a big difference. The truth is the LP and NP coalition is defective. Since it is defective, its chance of success is definitely uncertain, too. The LP-NP marriage is defective since the two political parties are inherently opposed with each other - in political views and aspirations. It is defective because it shows the weaknesses of both LP and NP as political parties. Otherwise, not one of them would need each other. It is also impossible that the two political parties could muster a call of political unity in the local level. Even in the national level, candidates of the LP and NP will always have that feeling of distrust with each other. In terms of logistics, local candidates would suffer the most since while thinking of getting necessary support, the candidate will get none at all. What is, therefore, the logic of LP-NP coalition? First, both parties are weak. Thus, they have to unite and share power. Second, both LP and NP are afraid of the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA). LP and NP want UNA to crash before it could take off in 2016. If the plan succeeds, LP and NP would slug it out in the political arena minus UNA comes presidential election in 2016.

Bathroom confidence TILED room. Cold walls. A sanctuary of unexpressed emotions. Our daily capsule where no inhibitions exist. Yes, our bathroom, the place where most speakers hone their skills. I remembered the days when I used to spend time inside the bathroom. Though it seems like a vibrant dungeon yet, it liberates you in ways beyond imagination. One thing we are most sure of is that, we are definitely alone within its confines. Aside from our daily rituals, we sing, laugh, practice our speech, and do more with freedom and ease. The confidence we generate inside the bathroom transforms us into a fearless being but, as we step outside the real world, we shrink from this fleeting greatness. There was a time when I thought I have perfected my presentation
Rubrics of Life Erwin L. Pepino as I delivered my speech eloquently inside the bathroom but as I stood on the stage I became numb and anxious…mortified. Overall, it was a disaster. Why do we perform differently outside our bathroom? Audience effect is the main reason why we tend to shy away and hold our defenses. This is actually a normal phenomenon as we detest rejection and humiliation. A lot of times we succumb to overwhelming fear of being in the limelight and pray that we instantly disappear rather than go
through such petrifying experience. As social beings, we are vulnerable to these scenarios and at one time have been exposed to this may it be during our school days or at work. Is there a way, where we can perform before a huge crowd with unbreakable confidence as if we are in our safest place? Well, here are some rubrics that have worked for a certain public speaker in all of his speech contests. They are the 4 Ps; Pray, Play, Plan, and Practice. Pray. It has been said
since time immemorial that before entering upon any great or important undertaking we should first invoke the blessings of God. No great speaker can stay great without acknowledging his Creator. Indeed it’s true! Play. This pertains to our thoughts, the more we think about failing in speaking, the more we dread it and the more likely the negative outcome will manifest. No one can control your thoughts but you alone. As we acknowledge this, let your thoughts play to your advantage by imagining that you are empowered and you rule the stage. Imagine yourself to be a giant before a group of snails, visualize your audience to be little children or just ornaments, think that you have awe-inspiring greatness in any way you can, picture it PEPINO/PAGE 9

Everyday is a blessing. Every breath, every smile, every tear that falls from your eyes are worth thanking for. Life ends when you stop struggling to survive. Battle ends when you stop standing every time you fall. And hope ends when you don’t believe anymore. So, don’t look back, don’t look ahead. Just look up and thank God for another day because not every person in this world is given a chance to wake up today. (Contributed by Photojournalist Joey Nacalaban, Sun Star Cagayan de Oro City)

Why is a hotdog called a hotdog? IN 1987, Frankfurt, Germany celebrated the 500th birthday of the frankfurter, the hot dog sausage. Although, the people of Vienna (Wien), Austria will point out that their wiener sausages are proof of origin for the hot dog. (By the way, ham, being pork meat, is found in hotdogs.) In “Every wonder why?” Douglas B. Smith explains that the hotdog was given its name by a cartoonist. HotdogA butcher from Frankfurt who owned a dachshund named the long frankfurter sausage a “dachshund sausage,” the dachshund being a slim dog with a long body. (“Dachshund” is German for “badger dog.” They were originally bred for hunting badgers.) German immigrants introduced the dachshund sausage (and Hamburg meat) to the United States. In 1871, German butcher Charles Feltman opened the first “hotdog” stand in Coney Island, selling 3,684 dachshund sausages, most wrapped in a milk bread roll, during his first year in business. In the meantime, frankfurters – and wieners – were sold as hot food by sausage sellers. In 1901, New York Times cartoonist T.A. Dargan noticed that one
sausage seller used bread buns to handle the hot sausages after he burnt his fingers and decided to illustrate the incident. He wasn’t sure of the spelling of dachshund and simply called it “hot dog.” Eating Recipes for placing meat between slices of bread date back to Roman times. However, that was for steak, not minced meat. Thus, the steak burger is older than the hamburger! Sausage is one of the oldest forms of processed food, having been mentioned in Homer’s Odyssey in the 9th century BC. The tongue is a muscle with glands, sensory cells, and fatty tissue that helps to moisten food with saliva. You cannot taste food unless it is mixed with saliva. For instance, if salt is placed on a dry tongue, the taste buds will not be able to identify it. As soon as saliva is added, the salt dissolves and the taste sensation takes place. There are 4 basic tastes plus umami. The salt and sweet taste buds are at the tip of the tongue, bitter at the base, sour along the sides, and umami along the center of the tongue.

Sex & Health | Ni Kuya Heart Dear Kuya Heart, Hapit na ako maka-anak. First time nako nga magka-baby. Kini ang akong buhing handumanan sa akong pagbiya sa kinabuhing dalaga. Di man usab ako magmahay labi na nga gipakaslan ako sa amahan sa bata nga akong gisabak. Di nako malikayan sanglit first time ako magpahimugso og bata, bati-on gyud nako ang kahadlok. Dunay akong nadunggan nga peligro daw sa usa ka babaeng nagsabak kun dunay alum sa gingi sa vagina. Maglisud daw kini sa pag-anak. Bunga sa curiosity, akong gisaminan ang akong vagina og gipahayagan nako gamit ang flashlight. Nakita ko nga dunay alum ang gingi sa akong vagina. Sa akong nadiskubre, nibati ako og kahadlok kay basin og tinuod ang ilang gi-ingon hinungdan nga karon pa lang, gusto nako nga ipasumpa ang maong alum. Kuya Heart, tinuod ba ang ilang gi-ingon nga maglisud pagpanganak ang usa ka babae kun dunay alum ang gingi sa vagina? Virginia,
Virginia
Sa tinud-anay, wa koy nakita nga koneksyon sa alum sa gingi sa imong vagina og sa pagpanganak. Actually, way labot ang alum sa imong gisabak. Ang punto ko lang, ayaw tuo nianang patuo-tuo. Salig sa Magbubuhat, i-ampo nga unta hapsay ang imong pagpanganak. Kun nagtuman ka lamang sa tambag sa imong doctor unsay buhaton og kun nakita sa doctor nga mamaayo og hapsay ang imong pagpanganak, unsa pa may imong kagul-an. Punto lamang nako, hugti ang imong pagtuo sa atong Magbubuhat. Ayaw tuo anang impormasyon nga imong nasagap nga usa ka dautang tilimad-on so on and so forth…wa gyud nay koneksyon sa labing pagkasulte lang. Sa imong pagpanganak, mas maayo nga adto ka sa ospital kay ma-atiman ka man sa doctor. Salamat. Kuya Heart (Sa inyong tampo, i-email sa pagsuwaysakinabuhi@gmail.com)

NCDA publication highlights Opol town By ARJAY S. FELICILDA, Correspondent
MISAMIS Oriental––The newly-established publication of the National C ouncil on Dis abi lity Affairs (NCDA) Office zooms-in to how the local government unit (LGU) of Opol cares for its own constituency of Persons with Disabilities (PWDs). Named ‘ Telling t he Story, Sharing the Success’, the publication features the town’s non-handicapping environment (NFE) projects, particularly its accessibility facilities now existing in various parts of the locality. Said facilities were toured by the 31 LGU-
based participants of the forum on NHE for PWDs held in Cagayan de Oro, July 4 and 5. The publication was launched in same forum by NCDA and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). Opol has pioneered the NFE in this part of the country since year 2008. In the news conference preceding the twoday forum, the 20 percent discount given to PWDs, under the amended Republic Act No. 9442 (Magna
Carta for Disabled Persons ), was also revisited. Such discounts can be availed of by PWDs on all services in hotels and similar lodging establishments, restaurants, recreation centers, theatres, cinema houses, concert halls, circuses, carnivals and other similar places of culture, leisure and amusement. The same percentage discounts are also given to PWDs for the purchase of medicines, medical and dental services, including diagnostic and laboratory fees, fare for domestic air and sea travel, public railways, skyways and bus fares.

believe it. It is through over-estimating yourself and under-estimating the challenge that makes us outrageously successful in speaking, think the other way and you’re doomed! Plan. While you continue to play your visual pictures of empowerment, it is now important to activate your compasses. You need to have a direction of your speech…a simple outline. Planned or extemporaneous speeches can be weaved according to different outlines like, Past-Present-Future format, Point-ReasonExample-Point format, or Stor y-Message-Gain format. Planning also is not all about speech structures but also includes how to captivate the audience through incorporating humor, or a compelling story consistent with your speech topic . Your speech should not only be listened to but should be talked about. You should plan for content and impact. Practice. A mirror could be your best friend in checking your performance before show time. Constant repetition of your speech in front of a mirror or otherwise engaging yourself to speak before small groups or set of friends before the big event will boost your confidence as well as desensitize your glossophobic tendencies. Practice will also calm your nerves as you will develop master y of your piece. Moreover, put more push in your performance by practicing effective strategies in public speaking like using good vocal variety, gestures, eye-contact, pacing, and timing. If you think that your memory can’t seem to sustain any further then use index cards with written speech outline. Glance at it but not for long and push harder! Practice more. I believe that the more exposed you are in speaking , the more explosive your speech delivery will be on stage. These strategies to overcome fear in public speaking can only be proven effective if we manage to pull ourselves up and try it. Despite the myriad of self-help materials available to improve our confidence in speaking, it is in the actual application of these skills that would definitely make the difference. I suggest we stop getting ready for too long and just do it. Eventually, we will be speaking dauntlessly as if we are inside our daily capsule where no inhibitions exist!

station after his arrest on Monday. Gavas however showed papers claiming his chairmanship of the Veterans Legionnaires of World War of the Walter Cushing Guerilla Unit, Inc. with an office address at Arroyo Compound, Barangay 74-A, Matina Crossing here, the police chief added. Illegal settlers entered the Victoria village property upon the headship of Gavas who used a decision issued by the Supreme Court in 1998 favoring “them” to own properties in the Philippines, including the lands owned by the government. The arrest of Gavas came following the pronouncement of Vice Mayor Rodrigo Duterte over his Sunday television program on the illegal settlement headed by the suspect. Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio immediately ordered the demolition team of the City Engineer’s Office and the City Housing Office to dismantle the shanties of the settlers inside the village. The suspect will be facing cases in court for trespassing, malicious mischief, robbery and grave threats, Abude said.

buuin at patingkarin ang suporta at pakikilahok ng Bangsamoro para sa nangyayaring usaping pangkapayapaan sa pagitan ng gobyerno at MILF,” Deles said. (“Our presence here signifies the national government’s recognition of your sincere efforts to gather support from and ensure the participation of the Bangsamoro for the ongoing peace talks.”) “Saludo po kami sa inyong (We salute your) show of unarmed force in support of the peace process,” she added, conveying the national government’s recognition and appreciation to the MILF leadership’s initiative to hold the public assembly. Deles also took note of the successful collaboration of government security forces and the MILF in ensuring the safety and security of the participants to the four-day Bangsamoro Leaders’ Assembly. She related that it was not her first time to be in Camp Darapanan. She attended the Bangsamoro People’s Consultative Assembly here back in 2005 barely a month and a week before she resigned as Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process during the Arroyo administration. “In 2005, together with Secretary Silvestre ‘Yongyong’ Afable, I brought the message of hope, solidarity, and persistence in pursuit of peace,” she recalled, adding that she brings the same, but at the same time, different message. “The difference is the change of leadership under P-Noy. Ngayon, dala ko ang mensahe na sinsero si P-Noy, seryoso si P-Noy, sa kaniyang paghangad at pagsisikap para sa kapayapaan at kaunlaran dito sa Mindanao (Now, I carry the message of President Aquino. He is serious in attaining peace and progress in southern Philippines.” The peace adviser told of reliving the heights of energy, hope and commitment for peace that she experienced. “Now I have returned, filled with joy and hope once more as I sense how strong your drive is to attain peace.” she said. The peace adviser concluded with an expression of new hope and commitment from the government. Chief government negotiator Dean Marvic Leonen conveyed the same sincerity and commitment from the government. He also underlined the urgency that a peace pact with the MILF should be signed soon. Leonen likewise lauded the MILF peace panel for being able, patient and wise in the peace negotiations. “To negotiate with your panel and your leaders is indeed a lifetime honor that we will cherish,” he told the participants in the assembly.

and Senate. “I tell you the feedback has been positive from the leadership of both Houses of Congress,” she said, adding that dialogues with retired Supreme Court justices and members of the 1987 Constitutional Commission are set to be conducted. She declared that consultations with local government units and civil society organizations, as well as business sector and the academe are also continuing in line with President Aquino’s directive for transparency in the negotiations. Deles stressed President Aquino’s “tuwid na daan” (straight path) principle, which is also upheld by the Islamic principle “alsirat al mustaquim” and his hands-on leadership in securing permanent peace in Mindanao within his term. “Sa tuwid na daan, ang salita ay sagrado. Sa ilalim ni P-Noy, siya mismo ang diretsong namumuno, gamit ang buong kakayanan at resources ng gobyerno, pati na ang kaniyang sarili, para sa paghanap ng kapayapaan para sa buong bansa.” She recalled the President’s move to personally meet Murad in August 2011 in Japan where they agreed to fast track the peace negotiations and the stand he made against the outcry for an all-out-war in October of last year, which he silenced with his call for “all-out-justice.” “P-Noy has been tried and tested in the search for peace. Nasubok na po si P-Noy at siya ay tapat na nanindigan. He has passed the test,” she said. Deles graced the kick-off of the Moro assembly which ended Monday with other key government officials, chief negotiator Marvic Leonen; peace panel members Miriam Ferrer, Yasmin Busran-Lao, Senen Bacani and Hamid Barra, 6th Infantry Division’s Major Gen. Rey Ardo, Government of the Philippines (GPH) ceasefire chief Brigadier General Gilberto Jose Roa, senior military adviser BGen. Leo Cresente Ferrer and senior police adviser Senior Supt. Noel Delos Reyes. Also in attendance were Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) representative Tahir Akmad Saif, Malaysian facilitator Tengku Dato’ Ghafar Tengku bin Mohamed, members of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF), foreign dignitaries and local government executives and representatives. The peace adviser’s compelling message reinforced the MILF Chair Murad Ebrahim’s declaration that he “sees a flickering light at the end of the long tunnel,” referring to a possible breakthrough in the GPH-MILF peace process. “Kami ay narito dala ang pagkilala at pagpupugay ng national government sa inyong tuwirang pagsisikap na

Saving Is Smart By LORELEI LOUISE A. DELOSO
ACCORDING to Tennessee Williams, “you can be young without money but you can’t be old without it. “ That, in a nutshell, best captures the reason why we need to save. Now. The younger we start, the better. And the earlier we make a habit of it, the more secure our future will be. We know how money actually loses value as time goes by. The P100 you had last year no longer amounts to the same value this year. A simple example: the two pieces of candy you used to buy for P1.00 from your friendly sidewalk vendor last year now costs you P1.50. So, you see, price increases for the same quantity of goods you used to buy. Ask any of our School of Business and Management classmates and he or she would proudly explain to you that that is what we call “inflation.” So where does this saving thing comes into the picture then, you ask. Well, if not for anything else, it always pays to save for the rainy day. Think before you spend, ask yourself if it’s necessary. Do I need it, or do I just fancy it? Do I need to buy it now or should I better wait. And in the meantime save my money. What you save now may
ultimately save you then. You never know when an urgent need, or worse an emergency, crops up. Hence, saving is really a desirable habit, one that needs to be encouraged and is actually a very smart idea, inflation notwithstanding. Saving for the future is smart. Plus, the habit of saving teaches you discipline in that you learn to appreciate value. For instance, why buy something expensive when a cheaper alternative serves the same purpose for almost the same quality? Why go for an expensive branded shirt when a simple one is just as comfortable and pretty? And save the difference. These were but some of the simple lessons and examples that were imparted to kids, aged 7 to 13 year old who are Sendong survivors,
in a workshop held last 23rd and 30th June 2012 at the Macasandig Covered Courts. Highlighting the value of saving and managing money carefully, “this activity is made to raise the awareness among the youth the importance of saving and really valuing money” says project head Nelsene Faye Mayol. In addition, the workshop also aimed at encouraging developing personal leadership and entrepreneurial skills among the more than thirty young kids who attended. Dubbed as “Bahay Pangarap”, the workshop is a project of Xavier University’s School of Business & Management and was spearheaded by its Department of Mission & Social Action in partnership with the Kuya Fish Campaign.

B U T UA N C i t y – – T h e sounds of an alarm system brought panic to burglars and sent them scampering away empty-handed from a bank on Langihan Road, Purok 12, Barangay Limaha here Sunday. Police said a concerned resident called up and informed them about the siren at around 11:45 p.m. to which they immediately responded and discovered that One Network BankButuan Branch 1 had been broken into but the burglars
had already fled. Bank Branch Manager Leah Mondejar arrived and opened the bank gates and main door as a scene-ofcrime team conducted its initial investigation. Police said the suspects went inside the bank building by opening the galvanized iron sheet roofing, destroying the ceiling made of hardiflex with aluminum frames and jumping into the pantry section. As shown by the bank’s closed-circuit television camera, the suspects went near the vault but hurriedly fled as the siren sounded. They destroyed the padlock
from inside the backdoor in their exit. “They fled with no valuable items or cash,” police said. Police said the bank has no security personnel during night time and relies only on the burglar alarm system which is not connected to the police station. Police recalled that the bank had previously been burglarized and advised to “complement its security measures.” Bank management has not so far acted on the recommendation saying higher management still has to approve it.
