Top management officials including Regional, Bureau and Project Directors, and representatives from other government agencies, constr uctors group, and the academe attended the two-day semi-

nar, Singson said.

He said that through research studies and diffusion of construction and engineering technology, the Philippine government will be able to build disasterresilient infrastructure suited to mitigate effects of climate change.

Topics on various cutting edge technologies were presented by experienced Japanese construction engineers and researchers from Japan led by Mr. Yuuki Aratsu, JICA Economic Infrastructure Department Deputy Director General and Group Director for Transportation and ICT. Singson said the discussion includes Japan’s rapid road construction

Pimentel also admitted that he was not allowed to visit the place however he still pursue visiting Alcadev since he believes that the he will not be harmed by these people because they

are his friends.

He said he will help Alcadev officials pursue their dreams in giving quality education for the lumads.

With this, he is calling people from outskirts barangays of Diatagon town not to lose hope despite allegation that Alcadev is tagged as NPA’s “training ground.”

Meanwhile, Alcadev Executive director Marife B. Magbuna said that most of the subjects from curriculum offered by the school are designed for the people living in the hinterlands.

The subjects offered are agriculture, industrial, Pilipino, math and history.

lakes, estuaries, and other water bodies which can affect our food resources. “ Let us stop this bad habit of dumping wastes into the rivers, creeks and esteroes to preserve our resources,” RED Sibbaluca said.

We, the Senior Citizens of Cagayan de Oro, felt sorry that some of our officers want to gain political favors at the expense of our honor and integrity.

This was in reference to an action taken by an officer who brought us ( senior citizens) to the Office of the Provincial Governor of Misamis Oriental last week.

We, the senior citizens’ group, are declaring here that the group does not intend to ask favor from the Office of the Provincial Governor. The senior citizens group is not a political organization.

We would like to reiterate too that the city’s senior citizens are one in supporting the incumbent Cagayan de Oro City Administration.

We fully support the incumbency of City Mayor Vicente ‘Dongkoy’ Emano whose administration ably provides the needs of senior citizens in the City.

We lament that some of our esteemed colleagues led by an officer went to the office of the Provincial Governor of Misamis Oriental AGAINST THEIR OWN FREE WILL. Undeniably, the senior citizens group cast doubt on the motive of the officer who brought some of our colleagues to the Office of the Provincial Governor.

Although we took action as an independent initiative of the officer, we the majority members of the city’s senior citizens group detested such impropriety.

We abhorred the action taken by the officer. It was evident that the officer wanted to get political favor at our expense.

We vehemently condemned such act of treachery committed behind our back.

The City’s senior citizens whose members are Cagayanons are strongly united.

With the incident last week, we expressed our concern that some unknown politicians are trying to divide us. We equally bothered with the callousness of some officers who are vent on selling our souls to provincial politicians.

As Cagayanons and as senior citizens, let us guard ourselves from unscrupulous individuals or groups who are out there waiting to prey on our seeming weakness.

Let us stand united. As always, let us show our unwavering support to the City Government and its duly elected officials.

Mabuhay and Nakahi-usang Senior Citizens sa Cagayan de Oro! Mabuhay ang Cagayanons!

We just make them angrier and want to rebel against us. So if we want to change our wife or husband, our children, or someone with whom we work, we’ve got to let them know we understand what they want.

Then we must care enough to try and help them get it.

It’s only then that they will want to change and do what you want also.

This is why Jesus Christ teaches that we must love others as much as ourselves, that is, care about their

needs and desires just like our own.

It’s only then that we end up finding our own needs for happiness and success being satisfied.

It’s simply a law of life that always works.

You always end up happier and more blessed by giving and putting others first. But you also find that those other people end up wanting to start changing because of your powerful influence and help in their life.

If today you realize that you’ve been putting yourself first before others, why not ask Jesus Christ to forgive you today?

Then ask Him to start changing your character every day, so you can start enjoying the success that only comes from helping others succeed.

is going on perk up.

It provides employment and induced downstream economy. In fact, the reason why the incumbent administration boosts of scaling down unemployment in the country from 7.2 per cent last year to 7.1 per cent this year was the combined implementation of infrastructure projects nationwide.

Wait! There is nothing to show off since these employment opportunities are superficial. When the road maintenance and repair are over, the laborers are back to their post as unemployed.

Perhaps, the reason why the highway department delays the completion of these road uplifts was to maintain the artificial employment statistic board.

On the other hand, highway officials are purposely slowing down the completion of work so that the public will appreciate with what the government is doing.

In either way, highway officials are wrong! The delay in completing these road maintenance and repairs demonstrate sluggishness. The commuters are annoyed with the delay that many questioned the highway department’s capability in program planning and management.

Highway officials should know that every second in the delay in the repair and maintenance of roads and bridges is equivalent to millions of pesos lost. They should know that the more their projects are the delayed, the more the commuting public mistrust them. react: crisguardian@yahoo.com

Used cooking oil THREE lawmakers from the House of Representatives have filed House Bill no. 5957 which when approved would prohibit the recycling and selling of used cooking oil.

The lawmakers said some enterprising ambulant vendors are using recycled used cooking oil in cooking street foods thus posing health hazard.

its many dangers, leading to the increased incidents of hypertension, damage to the liver, and could be a potential cause of cancer.

“Other countries, particularly in China and Malaysia, have also made efforts to curb this unhealthy practice,” Co said.

For his part, Batocabe said: “There have been reports that packs of used

cooking oil have mushroomed in the markets because these were a lot cheaper.”

Under the measure, it shall be unlawful for any person or entity to buy or sell used cooking oil, except for industrial purposes, such as, homemade biodiesel fuel, lubricant, soup-making and weather-proofing of exterior woodwork, among others.

Retailer, proprietor, corporation or local government unit who shall sell, or authorize to sell, used cooking oil that is not to be used for industrial purposes shall be fined with not less than P10,000 but not more than P50,000.

to Dr. Jonathan Ortigoza of the regional accreditation division.

He said “it’s a lifetime order, so BMC will no longer be granted any other accreditation by Philhealth.”

For such cases, BMC was fined the total amount of P710,000.

Meanwhile, Philhealth-10 Legal Officer Allan Panolong related, the case all started when they smelled something fishy on the family confinement and the mandatory three-day admission of the ‘patients’.

Upon joint investigation

by Philhealth-10 and Philhealth-9, it was discovered

that the 29 individuals, who reportedly belonged to just one family circle, were nonadmitted patients at all, as they themselves confessed during the investigation.

The revocation order issued on November 14

last year, was officially announced by Mr. Alonto during the news conference yesterday morning at Philhealth-10 Regional Office Conference Room. (with report from Philhealth-10 PIO Marlyn Ybañez)

‘Rebels’ harass military command post

By ILT. JOLITO E. BORCES, Battalion CMO Officer

Mayors and other stakeholders plan on natural resource

CAMP Ferrer Sr., Maharlika, Bislig City – Armed men, believed to be members of the New People’s Army (NPA), harassed Sunday afternoon the command post of the 75th Infantry Battalion’s Charlie Company in Sitio Maputi, Brgy. Carmen, Tagbina, Surigao del Sur. First Lt. Dennis de Guzman said the 10-man ‘rebel’ group, operating in the eastern part of the province, was headed by an unidentified commander.

Government troops dominated the 15-minute gunfight causing serious damage on the attackers, who soon escaped toward different unknown directions. No casualty was reported on government side.

Earlier, concerned civilians were complaining over the presence of alleged extortionists in Sitio Maputi where the command post was located.

Lt. Col. Benavidez, 75th IB commanding officer, described the incident as one clear proof of the underground movement’s continuing inhuman acts against the people in the area.

He warned, “my men are always on the alert and ready for any eventuality, being mandated by the Constitution to secure and protect the rights of every individual,” he assured.

The Tagbina incident has reportedly created tension among the local residents, he added. (JEB/asf )

Acupuncture reduces cancer pain SOME trials suggest that acupuncture can reduce cancer pain, although a review of multiple trials showed it to be of no benefit.

Many cancer patients have found relief from nausea and vomiting, through acupuncture.

Some people find that acupuncture is the only therapy needed to combat this side effect, but other find they need acupuncture along with traditional, Western medicines to get relief. (extracted from Lisa Fayed’s article in About.com Guide)

PA jins dominate AFP taekwondo meet

PHILIPPINE Army (PA) jins have dominated the taekwondo tournament held by the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) last March 15 and 16 at Camp Emilio Aguinaldo, Quezon City.

PA spokesperson Major Harold Cabunoc said Team Army bested 33 other participants garnering six gold medals, one silver and one bronze out of the eight events of the two-day AFP-PNP Taekwondo Tournament attended by hundreds of spectators inside the jam-packed hall.

The six gold medalists were Sgt. Michael L. Torres for the lightweight division, Sgt. Maximino D. Tabangcora for the heavyweight division, Pfc. Romel L. Jordan for the finweight division, Pfc. Jun Mark S. Jereza for the Middleweight division and Pfc. Edgar Rosquillo in the bantamweight division.

Pfc. Jhun Mark D. Coronel bagged the silver medal for the welterweight division and Pfc. Ranger D. Dayag got the bronze medal for the featherweight division.

The sporting event was participated in by outstanding athletes from the AFP services including 10 from the Army, eight from the Air Force, and seven from the Navy. There were eight athletes from the PNP. Cabunoc said the athletes went through a single elimination before battling it out in the final round.

He added that PA chief Lt. Gen Emmanuel Bautista sent his congratulatory message to the athletes and the coaching staff, when told about the latest accomplishment by the Army athletes. (PNA)

‘God told me to retire,’ says Manny Pacquiao Culled from www.gmanetwork.com

PINOY boxing icon and Sarangani Rep. Manny Pacquiao said on Monday that he had been told by God in a dream to retire soon, potentially raising doubt over hopes of a fight with American Floyd Mayweather.

Pacquiao, regarded as the world’s best pound-forpound fighter, told radio station DZMM in an interview also broadcast over the channel’s Teleradyo TV show, that he had decided to give up all his vices after the dream.

“I will not stay long in boxing because he said: ‘You have done enough. You have made yourself famous but this is harmful,’” said a seriouslooking Pacquiao, who has won eight titles in as many weight divisions.

Pacquiao, 33, said he had the dream earlier this year but declined to reveal how many more fights he would contest before stepping down.

But when asked if his newfound religious fervor would hurt his boxing, Pacquiao replied: “I will do my work inside the ring.”

The boxer, who has translated his sports fame into huge riches, a showbiz career and election to parliament, said he believed he had been chosen

by God to use his fame to

Azkals secure 3rd place in AFC THE Philippine national men’s football team started strong yet again but this time, they did enough in the second half to avoid a collapse as they booked a 4-3 victory over Palestine to end their stint in the AFC Challenge Cup in Kathmandu, Nepal on a high note.

Tournament leading scorer Phil Younghusband struck twice in the first half, while brothers Angel and Juani Guirado both scored one apiece as the Azkals finished the Challenge Cup in a respectable third place in their debut stint in the tournament.

Younghusband opened scoring early when he avoided three defenders to chip in a 3rd minute goal past Palestine goalkeeper Ramzi Saleh. The Azkals looked to add another in the 15th minute when midfielder Paul Mulders surprised a Palestinian defender by dispossessing him in the penalty area and taking a shot on goal but Saleh made a brilliant save to keep the Philippines at bay.

spread the Christian message.

“When I speak, a lot of people listen,” he said.

He said he would make a major announcement on a religious note later this month.

Pacquiao, who has a 54-3 win-loss record with two draws, stakes his World Boxing Organization welterweight crown against undefeated American Timothy Bradley in Las Vegas on June 9.

Mayweather and Pacquiao have never had a fight and boxing fans have long sought a match-up. The pair were in negotiations for a mega-fight to be held later this year but talks fell through.

Formerly a heavy gambler who was fond of late-night parties, Pacquiao announced in January that he had become a changed man after his religious vision. - AFP

ute to cut their deficit back down to just a solitary goal.

Palestine stayed on the attack when Abuhabib tried for a hat trick with a looping shot on goal not five minutes later. But Sacapaño was able to put a hand on it to keep the Azkals in the lead.

Palestine attempted a last-ditch effort in injury time, pulling Saleh away from their net and into the offensive attack. But it proved fruitless as the Azkals were able to clear the ball and hang onto the win.

Though the Azkals suffered a disappointing setback in the semifinals, they earned some measure of redemption by finishing third, behind just North Korea and Turkmenistan, who will play for the title.

With the two goals, Azkals striker Younghusband also put himself in strong position to claim the Golden Boot as he went three goals clear of North Korea’s Pak Nam Chol in the race to be the tournament’s top scorer.

Younghusband ended his campaign with six goals.

the situation.

Pabillo cited the government’s “inability” to monitor oil prices and to regulate the increases imposed by big oil players.

“This trend is no longer acceptable as the spiralling oil prices in the country aggravates the poverty situation in which the poor are forced to endure accelerating prices of public utilities and basic commodities against the decelerating income and shrinking opportunities,” he said.

“NASSA calls on the government to establish an effective monitoring system of oil price movements and to immediately craft measures that will make petroleum products accessible and affordable to the public.”

“Revisiting the e-VAT on oil prices could just be among the speedy reliefs.

It should also look at Oil Deregulation Law to see how it could protect the public from corporate interest,” said Pabillo. [CBCPNews]

a congressman’s duty is “wide-ranging” in that it involves not only the district he represents but the region, like Caraga, and the country as well. While his district takes the lawmaker’s priority attention in terms of plans, programs and projects, a congressman’s thrust should at the same time address regional and national concerns, he said.

Unconfirmed reports said City Councilor Ryan Anthony Culima will challenge Fortun in the latter’s congressional bid. But according to other sources, Culima would replace Fortun as Liberal Party candidate for vice mayor.

On the other hand, former Mayor Daisy Plaza of Lakas-NUCD Party of ex-President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is expected to announce her interest to run for the same position Fortun is seeking.

Mr. Aquino said they are allocating 10-15 percent of the gross leasable area for local and “home-grown” concepts.

“Our marketing group has extensively researched local brands and we are helping these brands grow with us through our network of 10 large and 12 retail capsule malls nationwide,” he added.

He cited Bigby’s Café and Restaurant and Café Laguna as two of their success stories.

Centrio is being undertaken by Cagayan de Oro Gateway Corporation, a joint venture between Ayala Land Inc. and the Antonio Floirendo Group of Companies (Anflo Group).

Ayala Land is investing over P5-billion for Centrio, exclusive of the merchants investments and the Aflo Group’s equity in the 3.7 hectare property. “Ayala Land has taken the unprecedented step of simultaneously investing the whole amount in the four vital components of this project: the three-level Centrio Mall, eight storey Kukun Hotel, 23-storey Centrio Tower by Avida residential condominium and BPO offices.

This is an indication of our level of confidence in our Cagayan de Oro project.”

Family feud As it turns out, the heirs of the original BGEI stockholders are embroiled in a nasty dispute with Cristina for the past 20 years.

The news about the P11million “cash advance” to Corona – who is not a BGEI stockholder — triggered a series of events that could dethrone the “King of the Supremes.”

cussed the matter with his family and had sought advice from political partymates and supporters.

Fortun, who heads the local Liberal Party committee, said he had decided to accept the challenge and hoped the people will be behind him.

According to Fortun,

Renato and Cristina Corona Days later, it was revealed at the impeachment trial that Corona withdrew a total of P32.6 million from three peso time deposit accounts with Philippine Savings Bank (PSBank) on December 12, 2011, the day he was impeached by the House of Representatives. Corona claimed that the money was not his but owned by BGEI. He said that he withdrew the money because he believed that PSBank was responsible for leaking the existence of the accounts, which also include five secret dollar accounts. But strangely, he opened a new account with the same branch and deposited the entire amount that he withdrew!

Cristina then sent a text message to a media personality saying that the P32.6 million came from the proceeds of the sale of a piece of BGEI property to the City of Manila. But assuming that it’s true that the money belongs to BGEI, why did Corona — who didn’t have any financial interest in BGEI other than being married to Cristina — deposit the money in his personal accounts?

Recently, it was reported in the news that in 1995, Ana’s father, who is Cristina’s uncle, Jose Ma. Basa III, filed an estafa case against Cristina for allegedly failing to account for the rental income of BGEI. However, the court dismissed the case and Cristina sued her uncle for libel for putting out a public notice in the newspaper alleging that it maliciously put her in a bad light. The notice announced that Jose Ma. Basa III, claiming to be a majority stockholder of

BGEI, had filed a criminal case against Cristina for allegedly misappropriating rentals due BGEI. It is interesting to note that at the time Cristina was sued for estafa, Renato was working as Chief Presidential Legal Counsel to then President Fidel V. Ramos.

In an interview with Philippine Daily Inquirer (PDI), Ana said that the original stockholders of BGEI were her father Jose Ma. Basa III, Cristina’s mother Asuncion Basa Roco, Mario Basa, Sister Concepcion Basa, and Sister Flory Basa.

Ana said that Cristina wrested control of BGEI when she became its administratrix in 1989. Since then, attempts by the stockholders to inspect the corporate books were denied by Cristina, thus keeping them completely in the dark about BGEI’s financial matters.

The World Water Day 2012 will also look at how the swelling population can cope with the increasing pressure on available water resources by consuming less water-intensive products and reducing food wastage, which translates to lost water, according to him.
