NESTLÉ, DA10-NOMIARC TO BRING THE LATEST COFFEE FARMING TECHNOLOGIES CLOSER TO BUKIDNON FARMERS PARTNERSHIP TO HELP EXPAND COFFEE-RESOURCE BASE TO ADDRESS THE SUPPLY-DEMAND GAP FOR COFFEE

Department of Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala, DA High-Value Crops Development Program Head Jennifer Remoquillo, and NPI Agriculture Head Arthur Baria, led the tour and discussed the progress of the NestlÊ’s coffee demonstration area within DA 10-NOMIARC. Through its partnership with DA 10-NOMIARCH, NestlÊ has converted a 6-hectare field in NOMIARC into a demonstration farm comprised of a mother plant garden, a Robusta coffee nursery, a composting facility and an R&D station with the Center.

R

ecognizing the potential of Bukidnon as a top coffee-producing province, NestlĂŠ Philippines Inc. (NPI) has partnered with the Northern Mindanao Agricultural Research Centre (NOMIARC) of the Department of Agriculture Regional Field Office 10 (DA-10) in the production and distribution of high-quality Robusta plantlets and cuttings, bringing the high-yielding coffee plants closer to thousands of small-farmers in Bukidnon and nearby provinces within the region.

Speaking at the sidelines of the 19th DA-NOMIARC Farmers’ Field Day and Technology Forum in Malaybalay City, Bukidnon, NPI Agriculture Head Arthur Baria said they are looking to tap Bukidnon as a “coffee basketâ€? where NestlĂŠ can directly source high-quality Robusta coffee beans. “There is great potential for coffeefarming in Bukidnon with the province having a firm backbone in coffee production since the early 60’s,â€? said Baria. “In addition, the province is conducive to coffee growing with its rich soil, ideal altitude, and well-suited climate for the production of quality Robusta coffee beans. Bukidnon is rightly apt to be optimized in the coffee supply chain to respond to the current supply-demand gap in coffee.â€?

Baria explains that while annual local demand for coffee beans is currently pegged at 64,000 metric tons, the country only produces 20,000 metric tons to re-

spond to the demand, outlining further the reason behind tapping key agricultural areas such as Bukidnon to its base of coffee suppliers.

Embarking on a road to expand its coffee-resource base, Baria emphasized that it is imperative that key coffee-producing areas have access to coffee farming best practices, including effective and adaptable technologies, to help thousands of small growers realize sustainability and profitability in coffee farming, and eventually help address the gap in supply-demand. “Through this partnership which started in 2010, we have converted a 6-hectare field in NOMIARC into a demonstration farm. We have a mother plant garden where farmers can get highquality Robusta coffee cuttings; a coffee nursery, which serves as a trial site for different types of Robusta coffee plants; a composting facility for organic fertilizer; and a NestlĂŠ R&D station within NOMIARC,â€? Baria adds.

NestlĂŠ is also sharing its technical expertise in coffee planting with the Center through different coffee training programs, designed to enable farmers to get hands-on exercises on the various ways to better plant coffee. The Coffee Monocropping System and the SAIN (Sustainable Agriculture Initiative System) are taught in the Center, all backed by practical demonstrations at demo plots

by NestlĂŠ agronomists.

Juanita Salvani, Center Manager of

DA-10 NOMIARC outlines how these agriculture developments in coffee farming benefit thousands of coffee-dependent farmers in Bukidnon. “Bukod sa mabibigyan natin sila ng quality [coffee] planting materials, natutulungan sila paano mabuting mag culture ng coffee sa kanilang mga sari-sariling bahay (Aside from sharing with them quality [coffee] planting materials, we are able to teach them how to better culture coffee in their own fields). With the presence of NestlĂŠ, they are also assured of the market because they are planting quality materials capable of producing quality beans.â€?

Salvani, in another interview during the Forum, further explains the “beautyâ€? of the cooperation between NestlĂŠ and DA. “NestlĂŠ obviously has the capacity in terms of resources; they can implement projects outright when you need the resources.

Public institutions like the Department of Agriculture cannot do the pushing of agriculture development alone; we need our private partners to help us. It’s really a good thing that NestlÊ has chosen us.�

With NestlĂŠ currently the biggest buyer of Robusta coffee in the country, purchasing an estimated 80% of the entire Philippine coffee produce, Baria noted that NestlĂŠ is planning to establish more partnerships with the public sector, establishing other demonstration farms like the one in DA-NOMIARC in key coffee-growing areas in the country to reach other untapped small coffee farmers.

DA 10-NOMIARC Center Manager Juanita Salvani at the NestlĂŠ Nursery in the Center. According to Salvani, with the help of NestlĂŠ, the Center is able to share quality coffee planting materials to the local farmers as well as teach them how to better culture coffee in their own fields

NPI Agriculture Head Arthur Baria at NestlÊ’s Mother Plant Garden in DA 10-NOMIARC. According to Baria, Bukidnon has great potential for Robusta coffee farming with its rich soil, ideal altitude and well-suited climate and as such rightly apt to be optimized in the coffee supply chain to respond to the current supply-demand gap in coffee.

Shell cuts prices of oil products PILIPINAS Shell and independent oil player Eastern Petroleum Philippines cut the prices of its petroleum products Tuesday.

In a price advisor y, Eastern Petroleum said that it would slash P1 per liter on premium and unleaded gasoline effective 12:01 a.m. Tuesday.

Eastern said it would also pull down the price of regular gasoline by P0.40 per liter and diesel as well as kerosene by P0.25 per liter.

Fernando Martinez, Eastern Petroleum chief executive, said this week’s price rollbacks reflected the downward movement of petroleum products in

the international market.

Pilipinas Shell, on the other hand, will slash pump prices for unleaded by P0.90 per liter, regular by P0.40 per liter, diesel by P0.35 per liter and kerosene by P0.25 per liter.

Other oil companies have yet to announce a price adjustment.

As of Monday, the average price for fuel products in Metro Manila stood at the following levels: premium, P55 per liter; diesel, P43 per liter and kerosene, P54 per liter.

NPA rebels attack village 2 killed, 7 army wounded CAMP PANACAN, Davao City––Two rebels were killed while nine others, including seven army soldiers, were wounded in a firefight between communist New People’s Army (NPA) and army soldiers in a village in Compostela Valley Sunday.

The fatalities were known only as ‘Max’ and ‘Manny,’ all suspected NPA members. Wounded were Sgt. Marlon Parong, Cpl. Romualdo Tangonan, Pfc. Erwin Manabat, Pfc. Rocky Molina, Pfc. Jaypee Sionillo, Pfc. Carmelo Cachuela, and Pfc. Ludivico Elegio Jr., they were all rushed to the army’s station hospital in Camp Panacan, Davao City.

The wounded civilians were Grace Malisa, 22, who was hit in her right arm and Adela Madanlo, 46, who sustained shrapnel wounds in her stomach and both feet and legs. Medic personnel rushed them to the nearest hospital.

Soldiers recovered two high-powered firearms from the rebel positions during the clearing operation.

Lt. Col. Jerry Borja, commanding officer of the army’s 71st Infantry Battalion condemned the rebels for attacking soldiers and civilians in Barangay Calabcab, Maco, Compostela Valley Province shortly before noon Sunday.

Borja said the attack was a deliberate offensive operation by the rebels against the residents who have been supporting the Army’s Peace and Development Outreach Program (PDOP).

‘This act is clearly out of their frustration to stop the success of Maco in gaining peace and development,’ Borja said.

They (rebels) attacked government forces without considering the presence of civilians that might be caught in the crossfire, Borja added.

SIX INMATES who bolted the Misamis Oriental provincial jail have been recaptured by law authorities. Four have posted bail, one is back inside the jail, and the other identified as Jalil Bangkola remains at large. The jail escape occurred last Sunday. Photo by Gerry L. Gorit of Mindanao Daily News

Pagasa raises storm warning signal no. 1 in Eastern Mindanao PUBLIC storm warning signal no. 1 was raised in nine areas of the Visayas and Mindanao as the low pressure area off Surigao has intensified into a tropical depression and it was named “Ofel”, the 15th tropical cyclone to enter the country this year, according to Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).

In its advisory, PAGASA said that Eastern Visayas and CARAGA region will experience rains with gusty winds. The rest of the Visayas and Mindanao, Bicol region and Mimaropa (Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan) will be cloudy with

moderate to heavy rainshowers or thunderstorms which may trigger flashfloods and landslides.

Weather Forecaster Meno Mendoza said as of 4 a.m.

Tuesday, tropical depression Ofel was located at 460 km east of Surigao City (9.4°N, 130.1°E) with maximum sustained winds of 55 kph near the center.

Mendoza said signal no. 1 is hoisted over Leyte, Southern Leyte, Eastern Samar, Western Samar, Surigao del Norte, Dinagat Island, Surigao del Sur, Agusan provinces and Camiguin Island which are expected to experience winds of 30 to 60 kilometers per hour (kph) within the next 36 hours

“Residents living in low lying and mountainous areas under public storm warning signal #1 are alerted against possible flash floods and landslides,” PAGASA said.

He said those areas within its 400-km diameter are expected to experience rainfall of 5 to 20 mm per hour, which is classified as “moderate to intense.”

Mendoza also said that Ofel has a high chance of making a landfall between areas under storm warning signal no. 1.

Ofel is forecast to move west at 13 kph. It is expected to be out of the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR)

by Friday or Saturday towards China or Vietnam.

Solon defends Cybercrime law DAVAO City––Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero disagrees that the Cybercrime Law is a mistake but was confident it was only some provisions, specifically libel.

“Not the whole law. It also has provisions that seek to curb pornography and protect the privacy of users,” Escudero said.

He said except for the

provision criminalizing libel and imposing a 12-year imprisonment, other provisions in the law should not be feared of.

This, as he reiterated that the Senate has already filed Senate Bill 3288 recently, which seeks to repeal Section 4 on libel of the Cybercrime Law. The Supreme Court re-

cently upheld a number of petitions that sought to stop the implementation of the law as some provisions, particularly on libel, deprive one’s right to freedom of speech and expression.

Senate Bill 3288, he said, is consistent to with the position of the Senate to decriminalize libel under the Revised Penal Code.

AFP cites role of reservists in disaster management

By CARMENCITA A. CARILLO TAGUM City––A military offical yesterday said reservists plan an important role in disaster management especially in the province of Davao del Norte and Davao City.

“The reservists are trained and organized so they are easy to mobilize whenever there is a disaster,” General Lysander A. Suerte, Commander of the 1003d Brigade, said during the Provincial Peace and Order Council Meeting held in Tagum City. This has already been proven in previous disasters in Davao City and in the municipality of Kapalong in Davao del Norte, he added.

Suerte said 1,400 new reservists have been added to their roster, after 500 reservists from the municipality of Kapalong and 900 reservists from the municipality of Asuncion graduated from the Special Basic Citizen Military Training (SBCMT). He said the training of these reservists is focused on disaster preparedness and not military training. This is a reflection of the changing paradigm within the Armed Forces of the Philippines which now seeks to win the war through community service and development efforts instead of through guns and bullets. Data presented by Suerte during the PPOC shows a significant reduction in the activities of enemy armed groups in the province particularly in the municipalities of Asuncion, San Isidro, New Corella and NEW MILITARY CAMP CHAPEL. Photo shows Father Long Galido blessing the 402nd Brigade’s newly-renovated chapel in Bayugan City. Witnessing the ceremony are Col Ronald N. Albano, the brigade commander, and Retired Col. Samuel G Kapalong after they completed their immersion activities in 2011 compared to the statistics in 2010.

Kidapawan City hosts 2012 Mindanao Children’s Festival

By EMMANUEL C. ROLDAN DAVAO C i t y – – Ab o u t 400 children from Mindanao and other places of the country will grace the first Mindanao Children’s Festival (MCF) to be held on October 27-29, 2012 in Capitol Compound, Amas, Kidapawan City.

MCF is a brainchild of the Mindanao Action Group for Children’s Rights and Protection (MAGCRP), a network of child-rights advocates in collaboration with the Provincial Government of North Cotabato.

MAGCRP is composed of Tambayan Center for Children’s Rights-Davao, Bantay Bata 163-Davao, Ka-

bataan Consortium-Davao, Gitib-Ozamiz, Katilingban Alang sa KalambuanZamboanga and Family Planning Organization of the Philippines-Socsargen.

Don’t disparage Nur Misuari!

Last of two parts SECRET MISSION --- I recall I was Chair of MEDCO in Mindanao in 2001 when President GMA called me and said: “You are a friend of Nur. Go fetch him from Malaysia.” Even during the Ramos administration, I was already handling Mindanao affairs and Nur and the MNLF were part of my coverage.

Nur was detained then in Malaysia when he attempted to escape through the “backdoor” and was arrested by Malaysian authorities for his alleged involvement in the failed attack on AFP forces in Sulu. This was during the early stage of the Arroyo administration.

To make the “special ops” covert and secret, I left on a C-130 big plane at midnight from Villamor Airbase. That ride was unforgettable. For about five hours, the old but reliable giant of a plane, humped and bumped.

The cluttering noise of the “off and on” air condi-

tioning motor even drowned out, from time to time the sound of the four engines.

Notable about that special flight were the executive seats that were temporarily installed so I did not have to stand up along the way clinging to a harness as I did in past rides on the C-130 in my Mindanao work (next to coffins, at times). We had a cooler on board with drinks and snacks for the quick trip. A military lady nurse and a case officer were also on board.

“GOING HOME” --When we landed at a military airbase in Malaysia, I was immediately whisked to a receiving area and waited for a while. Then the door swung open and there emerged Chairman Nur Misuari, with a Muslim Imam who was arrested with him, as his constant companion even at the detention area. He was heavily escorted by Malaysian authorities. He was surprised to see me. He did not expect to see me. “What are you

MOVE over sex enhancing steroids, a 96 year-old man from India just fathered his youngest son. He broke his own record as ‘the world’s oldest dad’ after he sired an elder son at age 94 from his wife, 40 years younger.

Ramjit Raghav, of Delhi, India, said ‘he had sex three to four times in a night that made his neighbors jealous.’ Raghav was saying that his sexual prowess was ‘God’s gift.’

Cris Diaz Robert Marchand, a French cycling enthusiast, celebrated his 100-year birthday a couple of months ago by pedaling more than 24 kilometers in 60 minutes. The distance was a world record as the fastest a 100-year-old man has set. Marchand does not smoke. However, at his age, he admits enjoying wine and women. Thus, the French MISUARI | page 11 and the Indian had one thing in common – they both enjoy women even in their old age.

the rest of our lives, we still could not come even close to being as pure and perfectly good as God is.

So because we want to feel we’re still OK and good enough, we choose to compare ourselves to those really bad people.

But there is only one way that God can accept you and me so we can live in a right relationship with Him. God has to give us the

gift of His own perfect goodness. That’s why God the Son became a human being to pay the penalty of death for all our wrongs and sins.

Not His, since he has no wrongs to die for. Jesus wants to give you His perfect goodness free, so you can be good enough to become God’s child and enjoy His life with Him—both now and in heaven after you die.

But it’s up to you to ask Jesus for His free gift of forgiveness and new life. Just ask Him to forgive you for all your wrongs and living your own way. Then ask Him to take full charge of your life and start changing your character with His kind of goodness inside every day, for the rest of your life. Just Think a Minute.

mid-40s’ to be apologetic in bed? How is that, ‘Ronnie and Manny?’ Are not Raghav and Marchand an object of envy? Did they take sexual enhancement tablets or power pills? They did not!

Raghav and Marchand are classic examples of the adage: ‘Age does not matter.’ In their case, lawyers found added weapons in court against any elderly accused of molesting young women. More often, the court dismisses cases of septuagenarians charged with sexual abuse. The defense would always invoke the client’s sexual incompetence.

The Raghav and Marchand experienced had effectively demolished that defense. They have set a clear example of how the elderly could still be as aggressive as a 26-year-old chap could be with women. They debunked the theory that men of old age could no longer perform as women expect them. ‘I had sex three to four times in a night with my wife,’ said Raghav.

Somehow, ‘Ronnie’ and ‘Manny’ would agree that the French and Indian cases were exception to the rule.

Otherwise, their friends ’Ben,’ ‘Allan,’ and ‘Antonio’ would likely protest. How is that again, ‘Ruel?’ ‘Silly’ quote: Half the people you know are below average.

Imagine, simply because Garcia voiced out her critique against what she perceived to be an injurious situation in Cagayan, she was deprived of her liberty, thrown in jail, and was released only payment of a P10,000.00 bail.

-oooSC UPHOLDS FREE SPEECH OVER LIBEL: In the case of “Art Borjal, et. al. vs. Court of Appeals, et. al.”, G.R. No. 126466, January 14, 1999, the Supreme Court laid down landmark legal principles which constitute sound argument for removing libel as a crime under the Revised Penal Code.

Here are these principles, so the public may know: “…

At any rate, it may be salutary for private respondent to ponder upon the advice of Mr. Justice Malcolm ex-

pressed in U.S. v. Bustos, that `the interest of society and the maintenance of good government demand a full discussion of public affairs. “‘Complete liberty to comment on the conduct of public men is a scalpel in the case of free speech.

The sharp incision of its probe relieves the abscesses of officialdom. Men in public life may suffer under a hostile and unjust accusation; the wound may be assuaged by the balm of a clear conscience. A public official must not be too thin-skinned with reference to comments upon his official acts.’

‘Let us persist till we deal a death blow to the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012’

By BENJIE OLIVEROS of Bulatlat.com THE FILIPINO PEOPLE won its first battle against the impending imposition of e-martial law when the Supreme Court issued a TRO against the implementation of the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012.

Now the Aquino government is confused as to what to do. Senate president Juan Ponce Enrile is passing the buck to the Supreme Court.

He said any amendment to the controversial law should wait for the decision of the Supreme Court, which will hold its oral arguments on the 15 petitions on January 15, 2013.

A gmanews.tv report quoted him as saying, “So we have enacted it into a law, let us not blame each other, lahat tayo nagkulang. Let the SC now make a decision.”

Malacañang, on the other hand, is urging lawmakers

to pass amendments to the cybercrime law before the Supreme Court holds its hearings on the petitions.

The bill’s principal author Senator Edgardo Angara, on the other hand, is confident that one of the most controversial provisions in the law – online libel – will be retained.

What do we make of this?

I say let us push for the scrapping of the law altogether. There is no sense in amending a law that serves to curtail our freedom of expression.

Let us not let a law that restricts a medium that provides an opportunity for citizens to express their opinion on matters that affect them – from the laws, policies, and actions of the government and that of other countries, as well as international multilateral agencies, to culture and the arts – without fear of censorship.

Let us not let a medium where the truth could be propagated, where the lives, issues, and struggles of the oppressed and exploited could be written about – without the impediments being imposed on corporate media – be impaired.

We should not allow a law that, instead of empowering the Filipino people, provides those in government, as well as local and foreign big businesses such as mining and pesticide companies, with another weapon to harass those who expose their destructive and corrupt ways and to silence any opposition to their rule.

In the first place, if the real intent of the Aquino government in passing the cybercrime law is to curb child pornography, shut down cybersex dens, and put a stop to the violence being committed against women through the posting of compromising videos on

We grow minds!

the internet, it should have just amended Republic Act No. 9262 or the Anti-Violence against Women and Children Law and Republic Act No. 9208 or the AntiTrafficking in Persons Law. If this does not suffice, it should have passed a law specifically to address this issue.

The US passed cybercrime laws that cover fraud – because identity fraud is a common crime there – child pornography, and copyright infringement (for very obvious reasons.)

But the Aquino government passed an all-encompassing law that curtails the freedom of expression by giving it the power to monitor traffic data, restrict access to websites, and provides it with another weapon to silence critics: cyber-libel.

It even increased the penalties by one degree higher.

Hunger, hunger IN METRO MANILA and elsewhere in the country, we see so many people, young and old, alike going around hungry. You will see them examining trash cans and garbage places looking for something to eat. We see them everyday rain or shine and some are lucky to pick up something to eat. Nothing in their pocket except tears and sweats.

We can read from their outlooks the feeling in their heart. We see them fighting each day to retrieve whatever food there is thrown in the trash boxes. It is so painful to look at them and passing the same place everyday, you will know the same people fighting for their lives the hard way. The kind of existence is simply very difficult.

Some of them go into begging but still the earning for the day is not enough to satisfy just one stomach.

The same thing in the provinces. Still so many people go into begging as others retrieve whatever there is in garbage boxes. Life is indeed terrible for them. In some countries, there are still beggars but very few. It is not because they are forbidden by law but because the poorest of the poor have something to eat in their homes.

In the Philippines, hunger is widespread. Thousands of people could not eat three times a day.

When I was still a student in Manila, it was ordinary to see people going around presumably with empty stomach. It is easy to tell a person is hungry by the way he moves, his outlook and behavior. Some genuine beggars along busy streets are hungry most of the time HUNGER | page 11

Government offers 25-year retail treasury bonds

By Apipa P. Bagumbaran CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, --- The government, through the Bureau of Treasury (Btr), is issuing for the first time a 25-year retail treasury bond (RTB) to help investors in their search for investment instruments for long-term savings.

It will be offered to the public from October 9 to 22 for as low as P5,000 and with additional amounts in multiples of P5,000.

The current offering, having a maturity of 25 years, will be issued on Oc-

tober 24, 2012 with quarterly interest payments at a rate of 6.125 percent per annum.

The RTBs are part of the government’s savings mobilization designed to make government securities available to retail investors and promote savings-consciousness among Filipinos, said BTr Northern Mindanao Director Rogie S. Gadian during the General Investors’ Briefing held yesterday at Mallberry Suites Business Hotel, this city.

RTBs are direct, unconditional and general obligations of the Philippine

government. As such, they are generally considered safe and relatively risk-free investments.

The 25-year RTB is the sixteenth tranche of the Peso-denominated RTB offering of the government.

Gadian said the RTBs were launched in 2001 aiming to raise funds from an alternative source – retail investors who would want to diversify their investments in risk-free securities.

The first RTB issue raised P38 billion. Eventually, the appeal for the RTBs grew as proven by the increasing

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, -- The Philippine Health Insurance Corporation in Region 10 is tapping the support of media in promoting PhilHealth’s first-ever simultaneous nationwide running event on February 17, 2013.

During the media launch of the event, PhilHealth-10’s Management Services Division Head Maria Rhodella S. Pare underscored the important role of the media in propagating information and is hoping that members of the media can extend support in popularizing the upcoming run event.

Dubbed “PhilHealth Run 2013: Nationwide Run for Mother and Child Protection,” the event aims to continuously draw national attention and support to PhilHealth’s mission of providing all Filipinos with access to quality health care through social health insurance.

The first simultaneous nationwide run event will involve four categories,

namely, 3K, 5K, 10K, and 18K. Pare said the event will be held in 18 run sites nationwide as PhilHealth will be celebrating its 18th year in February of next year.

Eight sites are in Luzon, four in Visayas, and six in Mindanao, she further said.

These run sites are in Manila, Baguio, Dagupan, Tuguegarao, Clark, Malolos, Laguna, Batangas, Legazpi, Iloilo, Cebu, Tacloban, Zamboanga, Cagayan de Oro, Davao, Koronadal, Butuan, and Marawi.

Proceeds from the run will be given to the Philippine Children’s Medical Center (PCMC) as the national beneficiary and 18 other local institutions that cater to the health and welfare of Filipino mothers and children.

Dr. Jonathan T. Ortigoza, head of PhilHealth 10’s Accreditation and Quality Assurance Section and Chair of the event in Northern Mindanao, said the OB and Pediatric Units of the Northern Mindanao Medical Center was identified

as the local beneficiary for Region 10.

Early this year, PhilHealth successfully spearheaded “PhilHealth Run: The Mindanao Run for Hope,” a fund-raising run event held simultaneously in the cities of Butuan, Davao, Koronadal, Zamboanga, Cagayan de Oro, and Marawi.

Pare said the 4,563 runners in Region 10 joined the event and Philhealth-10 was able to collect a total of more than P1.3 million from the Mindanao run event.

She said more than P500,000 was given to the Southern Philippines Medical Center Children’s Cancer and Blood Disease Unit in Davao City, who was chosen the main beneficiary of the event.

The Pediatric Chemotheraphy Unit of Maria Reyna Xavier University Hospital, the region’s local beneficiary, also received more than P500,000 while the ABSCBN Sagip Kapamilya was given more than P170,000 for assistance to typhoon Sendong victims, she added.

demand from the market, she further said.

The BTr issued RTBs with three, four, and five year maturities in earlier tranches.

It offered the seven-year tenor in 2009, 10-year tenor in 2010, and 15-year tenor in 2011. Earlier this year, it introduced the 20-year

RTB. To date, the RTB program has generated more than one trillion for the national government, she added.

The BTr-10 stressed that investors should not be overly concerned that their hard-earned funds will be tied-up for 25 years.

Gadian said investors can liquidate their bonds anytime because there is a secondary market for RTBs. "You don’t need to wait for 25 years to get back your investment because, at any given point in time, you can sell the security at the secondary market," she said. .

DOE holds nationwide drive for 2012-2013 energy plan ENERGY, as a valuable commodity, has a direct impact on the country’s economic growth. Recognizing the long gestation periods of energy projects and investments, the Department of Energy (DOE) has formulated the 2012-2030 Philippine Energy Plan (PEP) to be launched in December 2012 in time for the annual celebration of the National Energy Consciousness Month (NECM).

The Energy Plan highlights the policy vision of an economy which will become largely decarbonized with the development and utilization of renewable energy – hydro, geothermal, solar, wind, biomass and ocean energy and with DOE taking the lead in promot-

for R

ing energy efficiency as a lifestyle, and advocating the use of alternative fuels for the transport sector.

The DOE has also simulated the energy needs of the country over the next 20 years by considering factors such as a 10.0 percent target energy savings across all economic sectors – transport, industry, residential, commercial and agriculture; an increase in the number of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-fed buses and possible introduction of CNG taxis, electric vehicles; and higher application of biofuel blends (biodiesel and bioethanol).

To further curb the country’s energy demand, the Plan also seeks to scale-up energy efficiency invest-

ments in both private and public sectors to generate more energy savings. The Plan also envisions accelerating the development and production of indigenous fossil fuels.

The low carbon programs outlined above will support the government’s climate change mitigation strategies thus helping the country achieve progress in meeting its greenhouse gas reduction goals.

The PEP aims also to climate-proof the energy system to help ensure they continue to provide energy services under all impacts of climate change.

Prior to the PEP’s publication, the DOE started its nationwide Information, Education and Communication (IEC) activities to inform the energy stakeholders. DOE already conducted IECs for Region IV-A last October 11 in Batangas and Region V in Naga City last October 18.

Upcoming IECs will be held in the following regions: § Region I and CAR in Ilocos Norte (Oct 25)

§ Region II in Tuguegarao (Nov 13) § Region IV-B in Puerto Princesa, Palawan (Nov 20) § Region VI in Roxas City (Nov 22) § Region VII in Tagbilaran (Nov 15) § Region VIII in Tacloban City (Nov 7) § NCR (Dec 14) The IEC for the National Capital Region will be held during the 2012 NECM and 40th DOE Anniversary celebration.

Skeletal remains exhumed, buried

By RYAN CUMAHIG CAGULA information officer, the skeletal remains were earlier exhumed CAMP Rodriguez, Butuan City–– from mass graves in Nasipit, AguThe Police Regional Office (PRO- san del Norte on June 15, 2006; 13) and the Regional Crime Labo- Barangays Taligaman, Pinamanratory (RCLO-13) have jointly culan and Libertad, this city, on given decent burial to the skeletal June 21, 2006, February 12, 2012 remains of victims of ‘communist’ and August 30, 2012 respectively.

On April 3, this year, more mass killings decades ago.

The ceremonies were held at skeletal remains were recovered the Chinese Cemetery here in inside a cave in Brgy. Poblacion, the city, morning of October 22, Bacuag, Surigao del Norte.

Only those of 15-year old this year.

According to Police Supt. Mar- Sonny Boy Plaza and 38-year old tin M. Gamba, PRO-13 chief Olong Mantilogco were identified,

through forensic anthropological examinations conducted by RCLO-13. They were claimed by their respective families, P/Supt.

Gamba further said.

It was learned that Plaza and Mantilogco were charged and sentenced to death by the kangaroo court of the underground movement.

Operation “Zombie” was launched by the Communist Party of the Philippines, National Democratic Front and the New People’s Army (CNN), leading

to the prosecution of members, who were suspected of having link with the government.

‘Rebels’, who witnessed the NPA brutality and feared they would suffer from same fate, surrendered and revealed to authorities the locations of the mass graves.

For his part, Police Chief Supt.

Carmelo E. Valmoria, PRO-13 director, said the CNN mass killings were clear manifestations of cruelty not only towards the innocent people, but also against

its own members.

“These crimes must be condemned by all peace-loving Filipinos for these are blatant disregard of human rights and chilling testaments of disgusting violence they are capable of,” Police Chief Supt. Valmoria added.

He added, “by giving them decent burial, the victims may now rest in peace but their cry for justice will forever hunt the conscience of everyone who had deprived them the right to live.”

Department of Agriculture in R-11 to probe chicken deaths in island

By CARMENCITA A. CARILLO of the Philippine Information Agency TAGUM City––The Department of Agriculture Livestock Division is set to conduct an investigation into the death of at least a thousand chickens dumped along the shores of barangays Camudmud and Balet in the Island Garden City of Samal (IGaCoS) Sunday.

“Dr. Edunel Sala of the Samal Veterinarian Office has already coordinated with DA’s Livestock Division and Dr. Mercado will go to the area today to investigate the incident,” Davao del Norte Provincial Veterinarian Office Head Dr. Renato R. Embate said yesterday.

Residents of said barangays noticed the dead chickens along the shoreline early this morning.

However, Embate said the chickens were discovered at around 10:30 in the morning Sunday in advanced state of decomposition.

“

If the cause is a viral outbreak then it can be airborne and can spread towards the neighboring poultry farms which can pose a danger to poultry farms in the areas where the dead chickens originated.’

“Some of the chickens were still inside the sacks but most were already found floating in the waters,” he said.

Initial investigation showed that the chickens were carried through a boat and thrown in the areas where they were found.

Embate said they could not yet determine the exact area of origin of the chickens but said it is possible to

determine it based on the water current.

Most probably, he said, these chickens are not owned by backyard growers but by contract growers, most of which are located either in Davao City or Davao del Sur. “The cause of death is probably a viral outbreak like avian pest outbreak but definitely not avian flu,” he said.

For sure, he added, it is not avian flu.

However, investigation is still going on and there is still no conclusive result as to the real cause of the death of the chickens.

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines avian influenza or flu as an infection that can be very contagious and deadly among birds including ducks and chickens.

WHO said some types of

avian fly like the H5N1 virus can infect humans like what happened in 1997 when the virus circulated in various poultries in northeast Africa and parts of Asia.

If the cause is a viral outbreak then it can be airborne and can spread towards the neighboring poultry farms which can pose a danger to poultry farms in the areas where the dead chickens originated, he said.

“This is utterly irresponsible—the owners probably realized the situation was getting too big and uncontrollable for them so instead of burying the chickens they just threw them,” he said.

He said Dr. Mercado and the Quarantine people will visit the two barangays in Samal to personally investigate the incident.

The City Veterinarian Office has buried the chickens.

Army, police clears village of Moro rebels KABACAN, North Cotabato -- Police and soldiers cleared here Monday a remote village of renegade Moro rebels who occupied the area after attacking residents in what authorities believed was triggered by land conflict.

Four members of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Movement (BIFM) were killed in the clash after the rebels stormed the village of lower Paatan, strafed house with automatic rifles and demanded protection money from residents, according to Col. Benjie Hao, 7th Infantry Division commander.

Hao said the attackers also demanded food provision from frightened residents who quickly alerted the police and the military.

When policemen led by Kabacan police director Supt. Leo Ajero and soldiers under Col. Hao arrived, the rebels put up a brief firefight but eventually left hurriedly when the 7th IB armored personnel carriers arrived.

Ajero said the attackers, led by a certain Commander Pax, escaped towards Barangay Cuyapon, a village near the marshland and across the village of Libutan in Mamasapano, Maguindanao.

Ruben Fizardo, a para-military trooper, was wounded when Civilian Armed Forces Geographical Unit put up a fight against heavily armed guerrillas before government reinforcement arrived.

According to Ajero, the bandits wanted to drive away Muslim and Christian civilians in an area they claim the land area.

To prevent BIFF Commander Pax and his men from returning to the village, Supt. Ajero organized a village defender team to patrol the surroundings at night time.

doing here, Jess?” I simply answered: “I’m bringing you home, Nur.” Evidently, he did not know that he was being brought out of his detention cell that night for a trip back to the Philippines.

He was merely told that they were going somewhere and he did not even know that he was at the military airport as I assumed there were no flights at night for him to suspect otherwise.

Except my C-130 landing still at dawn.

Nur was not dressed for a return trip to his country and he looked to me as if he was attired to go to bed for the night.

Someone in my party, a Muslim police officer, had the foresight to bring him

fresh clothes. We were sensitive to a situation of having a noted rebel leader looking disheveled on his return trip home. The scenario of a surprise “pick up” evidently took that contingency into account.

PRINCIPLED --Nur, even during the procedures for his departure took a principled stand and insistent that he had done nothing wrong. He argued, with raised voice, with the Malaysian immigration officers that they had no basis to hold him or treat him that way or that he violated any Malaysian law. He even refused to sign any document that would facilitate his exit from Malaysian soil.

It was rightful indignation, I thought. The Malaysian officer finally said: “You are in Malaysian territory and your passport has no entry stamp on its face so you entered illegally.” He was right.

But Nur remained adamant.

Finally, I volunteered to sign any document just to allow us to leave in haste.

NUR’S TRAVAILS --And off we went without delay. We walked briskly towards the waiting plane.

Nur must have not dreamed of this to happen that night.

The C-130 engines hummed back to life, not even totally cooled down yet after that long trip from Manila.

On board the C-130 several thousand feet in the air, Nur who was seated next to me in those provisional seats, slumped back, appeared so relieved and told me about his travails inside the Malaysian detention area. Contrary to the popular view back home that he was princely or royally treated by the Malaysians, his detention cell was dark, without any contact with the outside world. No newspapers to read. He would even insist at times to be allowed to “see the sun”.

JABBIDAH MASSACRE -- The way he was treated by the Malaysians was way off the way he was accorded courtesies and even protection at the height of the Muslim rebellion when Malaysia then considered the MNLF and Nur as their ally in the Sabah problem.

Remember that the Muslim

uprising, with Nur in the forefront, was triggered by the discovery of a failed Philippine government secret plan to invade Sabah in the infamous “jabbidah massacre” where some commando-trained Muslims who were being prepared to do a foreign mission to invade Sabah were massacred in an island in the south in a deadly “cover-up operations” to prevent the story from leaking out. One survivor however told the story to the world.

Nur and his commanders used to crisscross the southern waters and sought sanctuary in Malaysian soil, of course with the knowledge or quiet tolerance -if not assistance -- of the Malaysians during those friendlier times.

With this in mind, we should not be surprised why Nur now is nurturing deep seated and seething dislike and grudge towards the Malaysians. You can’t blame him.

N O HA N D C U F F S , PLEASE -- Back to Nur in the plane. There was some minor discussion among the police officers who accompanied me whether the SOP of using handcuffs on Nur and the religious imam who was his constant companion, should be done. I thought it was unnecessary and it was quickly settled.

The Muslim Imam fell to sleep in a jiffy in a seat at the back while the lady nurse took the reglamentary blood pressure tests. I volunteered too. My BP, as I expected was high. Those were fast clip and high strung events we all just went through.

DECOY -- When we were approaching Philippine airspace to land, we diverted the flight from the Villamor Air Base to a military airfield outside of Metro Manila as we got information while in-flight that some newspaper and TV reporters were stationed and waiting at the base for our landing. Somehow the “secret mission” was no longer secret anymore.

We landed in another airbase but still there were a few reporters spotted waiting there. So we had a decoy group appearing to have disembarked from

the C-130, with a shrouded man, to a waiting van that the reporters chased in vainful search for Nur while we took off from a waiting helicopter to whisk him to Sta Rosa, Laguna where Nur was turned over for his detention.

CAREGIVER -- A detention facility that was more of a home with some fixtures, although surrounded by a barbed wire fence became his home, including his family, for sometime in the middle of a sprawling PNP training camp. Eventually, while still under my watch, he was moved to a house in the old Manila area where he stayed until he was released on bail and eventually acquitted by the trial court for the rebellion charges filed against him.

Again, the rest is history.

In all those times, I was sort of Nur’s caregiver. Looking back, It was a privilege to be one.

talents and skills to their peers and stakeholders.

And it is providential that Gov. Emmylou “Lala” Taleño-Mendoza has accepted the challenge of hosting the MCF in her jurisdiction.

The province is one of the only few local government units in the country to have drafted a proposed Ordinance Promoting Positive Discipline and Prohibiting Corporal Punishment of Children in the Province of Cotabato through the help of MAGCRP and the Philippine Legislators’ Committee on Population and Development (PLCPD) Foundation, Inc. The ordinance is principally authored by Board Member Airene Claire A. Pagal, chairperson of the Committee on Gender and Development, Family Affairs and Social Welfare after a series of “Latus” road show film presentations in 10 municipalities of the said province.

Latus is an award-winning and internationallyacclaimed short film about corporal punishment and VAC produced by Tambayan Center.

“A l l ro a d s l e a d t o

Kidapawan City for the MCF because of the openness of Governor Mendoza to make her province as the first to craft a comprehensive policy against VAC in all settings,” said Edith Casiple, executive director of Tambayan Center and lead agency of MAGCRP which is based in Davao City.

Among the participants to the festival are children’s groups from the cities of Davao, General Santos, Ozamiz, Zamboanga, Kidapawan and Tagum.

Other children will also come from Tulunan, North Cotabato; Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur; Surigao, Agusan del Sur, South Cotabato, Cebu and Metro Manila.

Casiple added that the three-day festival hopes to draw out from childrenparticipants a Mindanao children situation report vis-à-vis the government’s compliance to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and other childfocused laws and issuances and children’s electoral agenda.

“The results of this event will be presented to concerned government agencies, stakeholders and personalities, especially those who are running for political positions in next year’s election,” Casiple continued.

The MCF will be graced by local government officials headed by Gov. Mendoza, Board Member Pagal and other government officials in Mindanao.

Hopefully the event will be highlighted by the governor’s signing into law the proposed ordinance providing for child protection mechanism in the Province of Cotabato during the last day of the festival in front of children participants.

since they do not earn enough for the day. And the reason some people pull out some coins in their pocket is they are convinced the particular beggar is really hungry.

I just cannot understand why we have so many people roaming around the city streets seemingly hungry.

We are supposed to be rich in natural resources, with a

vast land ready for cultivation or for planting. We have domestic animals ready to plow the fields for rice and corn. It is really very difficult to imagine why we have so many hungry people.

Of course, we have rich people. We have the businessmen, the politicians, the government executives , the leaders and others. They live in mansions, big homes with cars and drivers and they really eat good food more than three times a day. There is a very wide gap between our people, the rich and the poor. We really just cannot understand the situation. It is right there available for our naked eyes to appreciate.

If we go around the countryside, the villages, the exclusive subdivision, you will see real rich people.

Maybe we have lots of industrious men and women in the country. I could feel the failure of the government to see this problem.

We help the rich and forgot the plight of the poor. Our government banks are for the wealthy people. Our system of agriculture remain the same animal pulled plows to cultivate the farm.

think that the real intent in passing the controversial law is similar to the basis why China is blocking access to Facebook.

It is also not a coincidence that a study by the Dubai School of Government revealed that social media such as Facebook and Twitter was effectively used by activists during the Arab Spring uprisings to organize and spread awareness about protests.

The reason behind the passing of the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 is suspect and its basic framework fundamentally flawed.

The law that we need is one that guarantees and expands access to the internet not one that curtails it. Let us not stop until this oppressive law is repealed and we have effectively put an end to the threat of “cyber-authoritarianism.” (http://bulatlat.com)

Pacquiao set to leave for Los Angeles on Saturday

By EDDIE G. ALINEA of the Philippine News Agency

A FOUR-ROUND sparring session at the People’s Champ gym in General Santos City on Monday against former amateur standout Anthony Marcial gave “fighter of the decade” Manny Pacquiao his first taste atop the ring with an opponent following a little over four months in hibernation since his last fight in June.

It was a light skirmish though but enough to give Pacquiao the feel of having someone in the opposite side of the square arena since he started preparing for his coming fight with long-time nemesis Juan Manuel Marquez on Dec. 8 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

“Okay naman ang first sparring ko kahit na medyo asiwa pa at parang kakalawangin,” Pacquiao told the Philippines News Agency in a long distance telephone interview after sweating it out Monday afternoon.

“Alalay lang muna, kasi baka mabigla. Matagal na natigil at baka madisgrasya pa,” assistant trainer Buboy Fernandez, who has been overseeing the Pacman’s training since Pacquiao opened camp in the city where he grew up, said.

Like in the past three weeks, Pacquiao also did roadwork at the General Santos City Sports Center oval for stamina building.

“This is not the crucial stage of preparations. Sa Los Angeles pa, sa Wild Card Gym, ang talagang serious camp. Dito sa GenSan kumbaga parang pahiyang lang para pagdating sa Wild Card eh hindi tayo nangangapa,” Pacquiao, for his part, said.

Marcial, a former member of the national amateur training pool, does not necessary reflect the fighting style of Marquez who, Pacman is facing for the

fourth time, but according to the eight-division champion, he is the fighter nearest to the Mexican counterpuncher.

“What is important is malakas manuntok si Marcial, which is actually what we need at this stage of preparations,” Fernandez said. “Counterpuncher din, pero hindi pa naman yun ang kailangan natin.”

“What we need is to prepare Manny for whatever

hard grind that awaits him when he gets to Freddie (Roach) sa LA,” Fernandez reasoned out. “We will be increasing the volume before the end of this week.”

Besides sparring, Pacquiao also worked the mitts with Fernandez for several rounds, before finishing Monday’s session doing the usual heavy bag, double end ball and the speed ball.

Like in the past three weeks, Pacquiao also did roadwork at the General Santos City Sports Center oval for stamina building.

Team Pacquiao was supposed to fly to Los Angeles last Oct. 8 yet, but due to pressing matters in his duty as congressman in the lone district of Sarangani, their departure was moved twice before it was finally decided they have to fly to

that California City this coming Saturday.

“Tuloy na sa October 27, kasi yung date na yun dapat nasa Wild Card na.

Wala nang delay ito. By that time kasi, six weeks na lang ang nalalabi sa ensayo,” he assured. “Pag na-delay pa, masyado nang malaki ang atraso,” the 33-year-old ring idol said.

As for chief trainer Freddie Roach, the little delay

in Pacquiao’s arrival in LA won’t have any serious effect in his training schedule.

“It’s okay with me. Just in time for the hard work,” he said in a separate interview. “We swill have plenty of time to catch up.”

Asked when he and his team will proceed to Manila, Pacquiao said: “Siguro Thursday or Saturday para tuloy-tuloy sakay na sa eroplano.”
