Neda wants full privatization of Agus-hydro electric power plants

By BONG D. FABE Contributor

CAGAYAN de Oro City––The National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) has recommended the full privatization of the Agus HydroElectric Power Plants (HEPPs) to address the power crisis in Mindanao, it was learned yesterday.

The recommendation was just one of the nine issues and concerns on the Mindanao power situation that were submitted to President Benigno

Simeon C. Aquino III by NEDA, according to Ozamiz City Mayor Nova Princess E. Parojinog-Echavez, chair of the Infracom of the Regional Development Council-X (RDC-10).

“The NEDA board has recommended for [the] full privatization [of the Agus HEPPs] to be done on a per power plant basis or split into three subcomplexes to address the concern on having dominant players,” said Engr. Jaime H. Pacampara, chief economic development specialist of NEDA-10 and Infracom coordinator

of RDC-10.

The issue of privatization of the Agus-Pulangi power complexes, located in Lanao del Sur and Bukidnon provinces, is a very contentious and divisive issue that came to the fore during the power crisis in Mindanao in 2009-2010.

The Agus Hydropower plant in Lanao del Sur has a total power generating capacity of 700 megaWatts while the Bukidnon-based Pulangi hydropower plant has a generating PLANTS | page 9

to 20 mm per hour, which is classified as “heavy to intense.”

Meanwhile, the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) in Bicol has allowed vessels bound to Visayas to sail from the Port of Matnog in Sorsogon where 2,000 passengers where stranded following the onset of typhoon Lawin during the weekend.

The Coast Guard lifted the “no sailing” at around 5 a.m. Monday when Public Storm Warning Signal one in the Samar provinces was lifted to normal, Bernardo Alejandro Office of Civil Defense (OCD) regional director said on Monday.

The Coast Guard also permitted the transport of 136 trucks, 64 cars, and 43 buses, all are bound for Samar. pna

Misamis Oriental LGUs conferred Seal of Good Housekeeping awards

By GERRY L. GORIT Photo-journalist

TWO cities and 16 municipalities of Misamis Oriental were conferred Monday with the Seal of Good Housekeeping award by the Department of Interior and Local Government.

The awardees are Gingoog City, El Salvador City, Balingasag, Binuangan, Claveria, Initao, Jasaan, Kinoguitan, Lagonglong, Lugait, Manticao, Medina, Naawan, Opol, Salay, Tagoloan, Talisayan and Villanueva.

DILG regional director Rene K. Burdeos conferred the awards at the provincial capitol grounds during Monday’s convocation.

Misamis Oriental also received the same award in the provincial category.

DILG provincial director Ponciano D. Caberte provided the rationale of the Seal of Good House-

keeping recognition.

In the same program, officials also conferred the Pilot City Award for Excellence, Delgosea, to the province, the Binkisu Cluster (Binuangan, Kinoguitan, Sugbongcogon), and the Manluna Cluster (Manticao, Lugait, Naawan).

Delgosea provincial coordinator Janetherlyn A. Labadan gave the rationale of the Delgosea replication project.

Opol Mayor Dexter Yasay said the Seal of Good Housekeeping award recognizes local government units that practice good budgeting and auditing procedures.

Opol has been a Gawad Pamana national awardee with a P1-million award which Yasay said has been used to build a community center for multipurpose activities.

The mayor of Opol

personally received the recognition last year at the national capital.

For this year’s provincial Seal of Good Housekeeping awardees, the respective mayors including Villanueva Mayor Juliette T. Uy received their recognition from the DILG and a regional winner will be chosen soon to represent Northern Mindanao in the national event.

Meanwhile, Misamis Oriental is showcasing its tourist attractions at the provincial capitol grounds in celebration of Tourism Week.

Congressman Yevgeny “Bambi” Emano has led the province’s 2nd district municipalities in dsisplaying their various destinations especially for nature lovers.

Dancers dressed in colorful attire performed at the capitol to drum up interest in the activity.

Policemen in Northern M’nao undergo random drug testing CAGAYAN de Oro City––A total of 37 police commissioned officers (PCO) assigned in Camp Alagar, this city, were subjected to random drug testing on Friday, September 21.

Regional Crime Laboratory Office (RCLO-10) personnel administered the test held at the conference room of Police Regional Office (PRO-10). It was a surprise test since many of the police officers only knew about it early in the morning when they reported for duty.

The drug testing for Philippine National Police (PNP) personnel is prescribed under National Police Commission (Napolcom) Memorandum Circular No. 99-008 which requires that it will be conducted regularly

on a yearly basis and at random among PNP uniformed personnel without notice.

Random drug testing will help ensure that police officers are not using illegal drugs.

Passing the test is one of the general requirements for appointment to the PNP, and when police officers apply for promotion, mandatory schooling, and deployment for United Nations Peacekeeping missions.

Police officers are expected to strictly adhere to the policy of non-use of dangerous drugs.

Those found positive will automatically be subjected to summary dismissal proceedings. (PSupt. Ronnie Francis M. Cariaga/PRO/PIA10)

The people of Cagayan de Oro never forget the devious machinations of individuals and groups who manipulated us in times of trials and ordeals. We will never forget attempts to deceive us by ambitious individuals who endeavored to defraud us of their intentions at the expense of our ignorance. Who could forget efforts to dupe us into signing ‘recall documents’ in exchanged of relief assistance? These individuals and groups who campaigned under pretext of working for our benefits made an effort to influence our indecision in the face of traumatic experience.

In fact, many of us unwittingly fallen into their traps.

However, any form of wickedness would always self-destruct. The expose of the malicious efforts to betray our trusts lead to the failure of the ‘recall campaign’ against our duly elected City Mayor Vicente Emano. Those who initially signed those spurious documents later recanted and exposed the fraud. Had the recall succeeded, efforts of the city government to provide thousands of us (including victims of Typhoon Sendong) decent homes in relocation sites would never have had happened.

We could not imagine the hardship and the endless sufferings that these ambitious individuals and groups would drive into our lives had the recall succeeded. Now, the same individuals and groups are accusing City Mayor Vicente Emano of negligence resulting to damage and loss of lives because of Typhoon Sendong. Clearly, their motive is simply to picture themselves as our defenders. We know that this ambitious few simply wants to be emphatic to us.

It is unfortunate ‘though that we, the people of Cagayan de Oro, have seen this scam through their eyes. It is also sad that the same individuals and groups have now come to the open with determined intent to run for elective posts next year. Let us be wary of these people. As Cagayanons who truly look into the welfare of fellow Cagayanons, let us unite and campaign to block the entry of any of these individuals in the affairs of our political lives. It is the only way for us to live peacefully and harmoniously.

Speaking Out Ignacio Bunye

About pawnshops First of two parts TO SAY THAT PAWNSHOPS have mushroomed all over the country is an understatement.

Despite the presence of a variety of banks, pawnshops still play an important role in the economy by “lending” to people who would otherwise fail to qualify for bank loans.

Pawnshops are popular among Filipinos who are in quick need of money because loans are granted without the need for a credit investigation. The collateral or the pawned item is the sole basis for granting the loan.

However, most of us may still be in the dark about how pawnshops actually conduct their business. In an effort to answer related questions, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas came out with a primer on Frequently Asked Questions on Pawnshops.

I am reprinting the contents of the primer to help financial consumers who want to know more about pawnshop operations.

Frequently Asked Questions on Pawnshops: **What administrative steps or procedure should be followed in opening a pawnshop?

A person who wishes to establish a pawnshop must: Register his business name with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).

Secure a pawnbroker’s license or permit from the local government of the city or municipality where the pawnshop is to be located.

Register with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas before commencing business operations. **What are the maximum rates of interest that a pawnshop/pawnbroker can charge on its pledge loans?

Effective January 1, 1983, interest rates shall not be subject to any ceiling prescribed under or pursuant to the Usury Law, as amended. However, the interest rate that a pawnshop/pawnbroker may collect on its pledge loans must be indicated on the face of the pawn ticket.

Complain or change THINK a minute.

A young woman named Cherie was telling about her childhood. Both her parents worked outside of their home from the time she was a very young girl.

Her mother was an actress and was only interested in her own career and selfish ambition, so she spent very little time with her kids.

Even when she wasn’t working she was away from home socializing with her friends.

Cherie and her brother were left alone everyday, so they got into trouble at a very young age. Their parents finally divorced and her dad remarried.

Cherie was a teenager when she overdosed on drugs and almost died.

The next day her step-

Jhan Tiafau Hurst mother, who was very loving and wise, said this to her: “Cherie, how long are you going to use your past as an excuse for your life now?

You can continue hating yourself and blaming others for the way you are, or, you can choose to change.”

Well, as a teenage girl Cherie chose to change.

After finishing her education, she started her own business and now she travels across her nation as a

public speaker to teenage kids, talking to them about their life choices.

One person said: “Little people with little hearts live their life in little ruts, refusing to change anything in their little world.”

So when things are not the way we think they should be, we have two choices: we can keep complaining about them, or start changing them.

complaining about what you have allowed.”

It’s kind of like the old saying, “Put up or shut up.”

In other words, either do something to help change and improve the situation, or stop complaining about it.

We can “light a candle or curse the darkness.”

God is just waiting for you to ask for His help to change your dark situation.

But Jesus Christ can’t help you until you ask Him to take charge of your life everyday.

If you keep shutting out His light and love, then your life will just stay as it is.

Remember, “If things don’t change, they’ll stay the same.”

It’s your choice.

An open and direct communication link is necessary to avoid miscues and miscalculations that backdoor negotiations are likely to produce, just like what we are experiencing now in the case of Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV. Indeed, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.

Back-door negotiations, especially by inexperienced negotiators whose motives are even questionable, can only lead to a war that we may all regret.

-oooTHINGS TO EXPLAIN

IN TRILLANES CHINA CAPER: I guess that, in the hustle and bustle of this controversy over Trillanes having undertaken backdoor negotiations with unnamed Chinese leaders over the West Philippine Sea issue, some things are being glossed over here. These things must be satisfactorily cleared and explained, for they are now dividing the whole country.

One: why did Malac an ang and Pre s i d e nt Aquino choose Trillanes to be a back-door negotiator? What was it that prompted the Office of the

President to allow Trillanes to negotiate with Chinese officials, over and above what the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) and our former Ambassador to China were doing? What made Trillanes so special that he was the one chosen?

Two: why was there a need for a back-door negotiation? Were the efforts of DFA Secretary Alberto Del Rosario and Sonia Brady, the former ambassador, unsatisfactory? If so, why were they not told about it so that they could have changed tack in their directions?

-oooQUESTIONS ON TRILLANES BACK-DOOR NEGOTIATIONS: Three: what were the instructions of Malacanang to Trillanes?

What was Trillanes supposed to tell China? What was he supposed to do?

governor position with low profile but more sympathy from the Jakarta’s people.

People might have been underestimated because he had to struggle against the incumbent governor of Jakarta, Mr. Fauzi Bowo (Foke). Yet, in the first round, Jokowi won over the other candidates, including against the incumbent. After this first round, people were speculating but certainly guessed that Jokowi would win in the second round.

This has been proven by all the Quick Counts involved in that phenomenal governor election: Jokowi won.

Jokowi is the village figure with his low profile, and is well-known as the clean leader with anti corruption

and the like. This attitude has been proved by him while he was leading Solo city as the mayor there. He always goes down to the grass root looking at the low people condition. As a village figure going to the mega metropolitan city— Jakarta with huge social and political problems— he doesn’t show his gestures of being pessimistic in becoming the leader there. And, this has been decided based on all quick counts.

CAMP EVANGELISTA, Cagayan de Oro City – Soldiers of the 4th Infantry “DIAMOND” Division, Philippine Army, have participated in the joint clean-up drive along the coastal areas and underwater of Opol, Misamis Oriental, September 22, this year.

Done in partnership with the Philippine Coast Guard, Philippine Air Force, the Philippine National Police and Xavier University, the activity was in commemoration of the International Coastal CleanUp Day, which falls every 17th day of September.

It was geared towards giving emphasis and importance, as well as instilling awareness of the value and importance of having sustainable, clean and safe coastal areas and seas for the future generations.

Assorted non-biodegradable garbage, such as plastics, tin cans, bottles, metals, ropes, tires, food wrappers and fishnets were fished-out by the participants and put into sacks.

Such types of wastes are found to be harmful to living water organisms, and as they accumulate, may destroy sea life.

Certified SCUBA divers from the 4CMOBn, PCG, STEAG, XU, Dive-Special and several private individuals cleaned-up the Opol fish sanctuary. Brigadier General Romeo L Gapuz, acting commander, 4ID said, “Your soldiers will be your consistent partner in protecting our environment. Activity such as this might be simple, but has huge effect in the protection of our bodies of water. We need to act now to preserve our natural resources that will be inherited by the next generations, let us not fail them, let us protect our environment.”

He encouraged everyone to help preserve the coastal areas, as “preserving our coastal areas is a continuing and life-long effort that requires the commitment of all sectors in the society.”

‘Sin’ tax hike to fund Philhealth dues of another 5.6m families THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT intends to tap a portion of the additional income from higher “sin” taxes to help pay for the Philippine Health Insurance Corp.

(Philhealth) premiums of another 5.6 million marginal families, Cebu Rep. Eduardo Gullas said Sunday.

“Once the ‘sin’ tax reforms are finally passed by Congress, some of the extra revenues will be spent to provide Philhealth protection to around 5.6 million households in the informal sector, such as jeepney and tricycle drivers, as well as public market and street vendors, among others,” Gullas said.

The 5.6 million families will be on top of the 5.2 million indigent households already covered by Philhealth under the Department of Social Welfare and Development’s National Household Targeting System for Poverty Rep. Rufus Rodriguez and Gov. Oscar Moreno lead the grand finale of the Roas in Concert held Saturday, September 22, Reduction (NHTS-PR), Gullas said.

Maxie Rodriguez and Pastor Ching Roa. Photo courtesy of Ingrid Agudo NHTS-PR, Gullas said some P12.6 billion has already been allocated in the proposed 2013 national budget to pay for their Philhealth contributions, which are being shouldered by government.

Philhealth is merely putting the law into effect,” Gullas pointed out.

The House of Representatives has already approved on third and final reading the “sin” tax reforms, as contained in House Bill 5727. The Senate is now deliberating its own version of the bill.

Based on the House-approved bill, the National Treasury stands to collect some P154.56 billion in additional revenues over the next four years from higher taxes on alcohol and tobacco products.

The supplemental income will come from increased taxes on cigarettes; distilled spirits such as whiskey, brandy, rum, gin and vodka; and fermented liquor such as beer lager and ale.

The bill provides that: “The remaining balance of the incremental revenues in excess of the amount allocated

Life imprisonment sought for principals in hazing

THOSE who actually participated in inflicting physical harm during hazing or initiations rites should languish in jail for life, according to lawmakers.

Reps. Rufus Rodriguez (2nd District, Cagayan de Oro City) and Maximo Rodriguez, Jr. (Party-list, Abante Mindanao), authors of House Bill 6468, cited the need to strengthen the Anti-Hazing Law or Republic Act 8049 by providing stiffer penalties and stricter implementation.

“Since RA 8049 was enacted into law to curb the rampant violence during hazings ceremonies by various fraternities, sororities and organizations. There are still numerous reports of death and injuries in various parts of the country, the most recent of which was the case of Marvin Reglos,” Rodriguez said.

“The law was supposed to penalize those who go too far during initiation rites wherein prospective members or neophytes are made to bear and suffer extreme pain thru physical violence,” Rodriguez said.

“This only shows that there is need to strengthen the law by providing stiffer penalties and stricter implementation,” he added.

Under the bill, any officers or members of the fraternity, sorority or organization who actually participated in the infliction of physical harm in a hazing or in other forms of initiation rites shall be liable as principals and shall suffer the penalty of reclusion perpetua.

Furthermore: “The responsible officials of the school or of the police, military or citizen’s army training organization may impose the appropriate administrative sanctions on the person or persons charged under this provision even before their conviction.”

Likewise, “the owner of the place where hazing is conducted shall be liable as an accomplice, when he has knowledge of the hazing conducted therein but failed to take any action to prevent the same from occurring.

7

If the hazing is held in the home of one of the officers or members of the fraternity, group, or organization, the parents shall be held liable as principals when they have actual knowledge of the

hazing conducted therein but failed to take any action to prevent the same from occurring.”

Under the present law, the officers, former officers, or alumni of the organization, group, fraternity or sorority who actually planned the hazing although not present when the acts constituting the hazing were committed shall be liable as principals.

A fraternity or sorority’s adviser who is present when the acts constituting the hazing were committed

and failed to take action to prevent the same from occurring shall be liable as principal.

Likewise, the presence of any person during the hazing is prima facie evidence of participation therein as principal unless he prevented the commission of the acts punishable herein.

“It must always be borne in mind that these fraternities, sororities and organizations exist to foster camaraderie and deep friendships and not to exact plain and violence,” Rodriguez said.

Say Thank You, its National Teachers’ Month

In a message to signal the start of this year's celebration of the National Teachers' Month, DepEd Secretary Br. Armin A. Luistro FSC is promoting one simple yet meaningful gesture to give importance to the role teachers play in guiding families, strengthening communities and building the nation. He wants each one who has ever been a student to say "thank you" to at least one teacher who has made a difference in his or her life whether that teacher is retired or currently teaching. Secretary Luistro also wishes that local TV and radio stations around the country will be able to participate by allowing their respective anchors, hosts and artists to thank their favorite teachers and mentors on air.

The country is Celebrating the National Teachers' Month from September 5 up to October 5 this year.

It will be recalled that President Benigno S. Aquino III issued Proclamation No. 242 in August last year declaring the same period of every year as National Teachers' Month upon the efforts of the then Teachers' Month Campaign Steering Committee composed of Metrobank Foundation, De la Salle Philippines, Philippine Business for Education, Campaigns Social Response, Department of Education, key business and educational institutions. This will culminate in the celebration of World Teachers' Day on October 5, 2012 which will be held in Cagayan de Oro City in Mindanao.

Every year since 2010, the various DepEd activities dedicated for the National Teachers' Month and World Teachers' Day celebrations are being steered by Executive Director Joey G. Pelaez of the Center for Students and Co-Curricular Affairs (CSCA).

"Expressing our gratitude to our teachers is the most important yet inexpensive way to show our appreciation of our dear teachers," says Executive Director Pelaez.

He encourages students to write a letter, send a card, offer a gift or post greetings in their respective Facebook accounts for their teachers. "They can also post messages or pictures of their teachers in the Facebook Page dedicated for the NTM and WTD celebrations which our office created," adds Pelaez. The page has more than 12,500 following nationwide.

To support this initiative, Executive. Director Joey G. Pelaez of the Center for Students and Go-Curricular Affairs (CSCA) in-charge of all activities relative to the National Teachers' Month (NTM) and World Teachers' Day (WTD) celebrations since 2010, encourages students to write a letter, send a card, offer a gift or post greetings in their respective Facebook accounts for their teachers. They can also post messages or pictures of their teachers in the Facebook Page dedicated for the NTM and WTD celebrations, according to Executive Director Pelaez. The page has more than 12,000 following nationwide.

In a separate Memorandum, DepEd rallied all the Supreme Pupil Governments, Supreme Student Governments and other school-based co-curricular clubs or organizations, including the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Parents-Teachers Associations (PTAs), Local Government Units (LGUs), other government agencies, including community, business, socio-civic and church organizations, to support the National Teachers' Month by organizing meaningful, public, creative, festive and memorable celebration for teachers. full continuum of educational services by the Department of Education (DepEd) to those CSN below school age through regular home visits, consultations, day care activities and any other proper medium or program.

The measure also provides financial assistance to the economically marginalized but deserving CSN at the elementary and secondary

levels; ensures adequate and free medical assistance and intervention programs for CSN; and grants incentives to private institutions catering to the needs of CSN. The local government units shall be responsible for the provision of CSN-friendly sites and counterpart funds for training and seminars of parents and teachers in their respective localities.

Four: what commitments, if any, did Trillanes make? And how did he choose who among the Chinese leaders to talk to?

In fact, who did Trillanes talk to in China? Were they

really high enough in the Chinese government to merit his talking to them?

Fifth: did Trillanes really succeed in his back-door negotiations, as he has been claiming? How come Malacanang is saying he only managed “little successes” and not the “great successes that eased tensions” Trillanes is bruiting about?

Plants... from page 1

capacity of 255 mW for a combined total generating capacity of 955 mW. Both plants supply about 55 percent of the power needs of Mindanao.

But given their antiquated infrastructure, the combined power generation of the two hydropower complexes is presently only about half or even less than their power generating potential, with Napocor claiming that these plants are now operating at a capacity of only from 200 mW to 300 mW. Agus’s first unit was constructed in 1953 while the newest one started operation in 1992. Pulangi, on the other hand, began operations in 1985.

While the power plants’ privatization is in accordance with the Electric Power Industry Reform Act (Epira).

Section 47 of Epira states that 10 years of its passage,

Editorial Department. : mindanaodailynews@gmail.com Advertising Department : mindanaodaily.ads@gmail.com Read us online exactly as it appears in print : www.mindanaodailybalita.com

power assets may already be sold to private investors.

Epira’s tenth year was last June 2011.

But despite this law, many are vehemently against the privatization of the Agus-Pulangi hydropower complexes citing negative impact on electricity prices in Mindanao. Privatization opponents also raised the specter of monopoly after these plants’ privatization.

Instead of privatizing these assets, privatization opponents urged the Aquino administration to rehabilitate them.

Mindanawon Senator Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III even urged for an amendment if not outright scrapping of the Epira since it has not benefited the people since its approval.

Pimentel said the Mindanao power crisis is artificially designed to make Mindanawons capitulate to the national government’s desire to privatize the AgusPulangi hydropower complexes.

But with NEDA’s recommendation to Malacanang, Mindanawons fear the worst, especially since President Aquino has repeatedly called for understanding on why he is for privatization of these power plants.

Aside from privatization of the Agus-Pulangi plants, the NEDA also recommended to Aquino to compel the National Power Corporation-Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corp. (PSALM) to purchase power directly from the private producers to come up with a blended rate with hydropower.

However, NEDA said instead of reverting back to a monopoly, the distribution utilities should enter into bilateral contracts with generation companies subject to the limits prescribed under Rule 11, Section 5 of the Epira.

It also recommended the privatization and transfer of power barges (PBs) provided that the private sector agrees to rehabilitate and transfer the PBs and the consumers agree on higher power rates.

NEDA also recommended the Leyte-Mindanao Interconnection Project (LMIP), which many are

opposing for fear that high power cost in Luzon will only be transferred to the Visayas and Mindanao.

which will be attended by more than 5,000 teachers and officials throughout the country, aims, to highlight the unique role, service and commitment which teachers play in guiding families, strengthening communities and nation-building.

DepEd has enjoined all schools and its offices to celebrate the National Teachers’ Month following the synchronized programs, projects and activities it has outlined in a recent memorandum.

These, according to the DepEd organizers, include mobilizing support of the community and commercial establishments in paying tribute to teachers by encouraging them to give discounts, freebies and special treats and promos; featuring stories or write-ups on teachers in school papers, websites, social networking sites, local newspapers and national broadsheets; posting of streamers and tarpaulins; and conducting special activities to honor teachers such contests, parlor games, or cultural performances.

Celebrating Terachers’ Day is one way to express sincere gratitude for the positive influences of teachers on the Filipinos, Benigno said.

DepEd Secretary Br. Armin A. Luistro FSC, in a memorandum too, has enjoined all schools, including all district, division and regional offices nationwide to celebrate the National Teachers’ Month by following the synchronized programs, projects and activities outlined by DepEd for implementation during the month-long celebration.

It was learned that one of the simplest gestures to celebrate teachers day, which Secretary Luistro never fails to promote, is to be able to say “thank you” to at least one teacher. That one teacher, whether retired or currently teaching, may have made a big difference in a student’s. Luistro also urged local TV and radio

stations around the country to join the celebration by allowing their respective anchors, hosts and artists to thank their favorite teachers and mentors.

The celebration came about after President Benigno S. Aquino III, in an unprecedented move last year, signed Presidential Proclamation No. 242 on 24 August 2011 declaring the period from September 5 to October 5 of every year as National Teachers’ Month.

Teachers in public and private schools in the country are a force to reckon with. Numbering more than 500,000 nationwide, they are more than the personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and Philippine National Police combined.

Villar commends Orcollo for winning China Open SENATOR Manny Villar lauded Wednesday Dennis Orcollo, one of the country’s top billiards players, for winning the 2012 China Open held in Shanghai recently.

“Orcollo’s win solidifies the Filipino’s dominance over billiards. For years, more and more Filipinos are getting international fame in this sport and like boxing, people are seeing billiards as the Filipino’s game,” Villar said.

Villar authored Proposed Senate Resolution No. 875 commending Orcollo for beating ChineseTaipei’s Lu Hui Chan with an 11-9 score.

Orcollo branded the win, his first in a Chinese pro event, as the most special win of his career.

Previously, Orcollo won in some of the biggest pool tournaments in the world, including the World Pool League, World Pool Masters, Derby City Classics, US Bar Table and Billiards

US district judge orders Mayweather to pay legal fees to Pacquiao A UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE has ordered unbeaten boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. to pay Filipino boxing star Manny Pacquiao for his failure to comply with a court order to appear in the District Court of Nevada last year.

In the court decision (posted online at Deadspin), Pacquiao and his legal team will receive a total of $114,292.60.

“The clerk of court shall enter an award of attorney’s fees in favor of plaintiff Emmanuel Pacquiao and against defendant Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in the amount of $113,518.50.The clerk of court shall also enter an award of costs in favor of plaintiff Emmanuel Pacquiao and against defendant Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in the amount of $774.10,” Judge Larry R. Hicks of Nevada said in his ruling.

The ruling stems from a defamation case filed by Pacquiao against Mayweather, alleging, among MAYWEATHER | page 7

Congress of America.

“Billiards now matches the popularity of basketball among Filipinos, especially the youth. Support for this sport should be encouraged and enhanced,” Villar said.

In 2009, Villar started the Villards Cup which provided budding billiards players a venue to compete against amateur players and play alongside veteran players like Orcollo,

Efren ‘Bata Reyes, Alex Pagulayan, Ronnie Alcano, Django Bustamante, Gandy Valle, Warren Kiamco, Lee Van Corteza, Ramil Gallego, Roberto Gomez and others.

This year, the Cup will resume on September 23 at Starmall San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan.

Sixteen amateur players from all over the province qualified for the competi-

tion.

“Villards Cup is our own little way of encouraging the youth to engage in sports, and move them away from illegal drugs. I know that there are many future Efren Bata or Orcollo among our youth. I want to become instrument of Villards Cup to discover them and give them a chance to excel,” Floyd Mayweather, Jr. with lawyer and friend 50 Cent David Villar said. pna Becker/Getty Images BRANCHES 1.

ancestral domain.

The tribesmen, all members of the Tambog Villanon Clan (Tamvilca), averred that they were part, as claimants, of the Certificate of Ancestral Domain Claim (CADC) 135, but they were not given their share when awarded to the Quezon Manobo Tribes Association (Quemtras) in 1998.

As a result, the group is now claiming more than 1,000 hectares of Rancho Montalvan Inc. (RMI) in Barangay San Jose, and has assumed possession of the ranch after the lease of the land to the management of Rancho Montalvan expired in 2009.

Last Thursday, more than 200 families of Tamvilca were about to enter and take possession of the ranch illegally.

But the violent incident was averted after an emissary from the mayor’s office asked the tribesmen to delay their intention to occupy the land after they have talked to the mayor who was in Manila on an official business at press time.

Then the tribal members of Tamvilca instead marched to the municipal hall and held a lightning rally there and vowed not to leave the premises until the mayor resolve the issue.

“We are a peaceful and law abiding people, but we are being pushed to the limit that we have decided and opt to take extra legal action and would occupy the land, our ancestral land, because the NCIP has not acted in our behalf as legitimate claimants,” said Datu Midsambay Martiliano Lloren Jr. in the dialect.

The Tamvilca alleged that the NCIP and the tribal leaders of Quemtras are conniving with the RMI management for the renewal of the lease contract of the ranch despite that the Department of Environment and Natural Resources has already turned down the application of RMI. Tamvilca alleged that even a local NCIP official in Bukidnon tried to make them believe and falsified documents showing them the RMI lease contract has been renewed so that they will not pursue their claim on the ranch.

Tamvilca filed a case against the NCIP official and is now pending with the Ombudsman.

“We also want for the NCIP to be held answerable why the leaders of Quemtras were allowed to use their ancestral land awarded to them being rented by sugarcane planters when such practice is a violation of the Indigenous Peoples Rights Act.” Lloren said.

Libel... from page 1

Pacquiao was reportedly seeking P75 million against Espejo.

Espejo said on Thursday that he has yet to receive an

official copy of the Pacquiao libel complaint and noted that he was never summoned by the city prosecutor’s office to answer the case.

Romel Bagares, CenterLaw executive director, has offered to defend Espejo against the libel case by Pacquiao.

CenterLaw is a human rights organization dedicated to the promotion of free expression and a charter member of the Southeast Asia Media Defense Network, an alliance of regional lawyers’ and media advocacy groups providing legal support to journalists facing legal persecution for the work they do.

Bagares earlier urged Pacquaio to withdraw the complaint he filed against the journalist.

Pacquiao’s case stemmed from the articles of Espejo, which appeared at online news outfits Asian Correspondent and MindaNews.

At the Asian Correspondent, the piece was titled “Stolen car dealer finds refuge in Pacman mansion,” while MindaNews titled it “Dealer of stolen cars last seen in Pacman mansion.

“The suit comes on the heels of a view released by the UN Human Rights Committee finding that criminal libel in the Philippines violates its obligations to protect free expression under Article 19 of the International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), to which it is a signatory,” said Bagares said in an earlier statement.

“It would do well for Pacquiao in his job as a legislator to support calls for the decriminalization of libel in the country by recalling the suit he filed

Groups resisting reforms carry bombings in M’nao MALACANANG condemned the recent bombing in Mindanao saying that violence would not deter the government’s efforts to carry out reforms in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).

Another bomb attack was reported in the ARMM on Monday injuring two, which authorities said may be linked to the

ongoing voter’s registration in the region.

Presidential Spokesman Edwin Lacierda said that the Palace acknowledged that people oppose to reforms in the ARMM will continue to find ways in an effort to maintain the status quo.

“We are going after reforms and therefore, I understand that there would be people who will

find discomfort in that.

But we are serious with our reforms,” he said.

“We condemn the bombing. We condole with the family of the murdered victims.”

With regards to police and military officials who apparently failed to stop the attacks, Lacierda said the Palace will leave it to the police and armed forces leadership to sack

commanders who have been negligent in their duties.

On Tuesday, authorities said they are convinced that the two grenade attacks at the border of Maguindanao’s adjoining towns of Shariff Aguak and Datu Hofer in the past two days could be related to the ongoing registration of voters in the ARMM.

A NEW political entity that would replace the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) as contained in the April 2012 GPH-MILF Decision Points on Principles wrapped up the 29th exploratory talks between the Government of Republic of the Philippines and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on Wednesday.

No details were available of the plan. However, both parties agreed to continue discussions on powersharing and other related matters, and agreed to meet again in August 2012.

They (GPH and MILF) expressed appreciation to stakeholders working to facilitate the continued dialogue to hammer a lasting peace agreement in Mindanao.

These countries are the Philippines, Malaysia, Japan, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, United Kingdom, and Asia Foundation.

Davao prone to tsunamis, says Philvocs DAVAO City––The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) in Davao confirmed on Wednesday that Davao Gulf is prone to tsunamis.

Desederio Cabanlit, regional chief of Phivolcs XI, also said that the region is not prepared for a tsunami since Davao region has no tsunami sensor device. He said such device was only installed in Luzon.

“Hope that device will also reach Davao Region, he said.”

Cabanlit also said that people in the Davao Region lack the awareness and preparedness for a tsunami incidence.

Cabanlit said that no

tsunami drills were conducted in Phivolcs Davao except one in Boston, Davao Oriental last year.

There are plans to hold another one this year, he added.

Cabanlit also confirmed there is no fault line in Davao City as well as mining areas in Davao Region. He said fault lines are detected in some parts of Davao Oriental particularly a barangay in Lupon, and parts in Compostela Valley particularly in Mawab, and Mabini.

A fault line is a break or fracture in the ground that occurs when the Earth’s tectonic plates move or shift and are areas where earthquakes are likely to occur, he said.

Bandit arrested Z A M B OA N G A City––Operatives of the Philippine Nati ona l Poli c e ( P N P ) a r r e s te d Wednesday an Abu Sayyaf bandit allegedly involved in the kidnapping and beheading of hostages 10 years ago in Sulu, a police official reported.

Chief Insp. Kenneth Balisang, Lamitan City police chief, identified the arrested Abu Sayyaf member as Hadjer Arasani alias Injing and Jilking, who is facing kidnapping with serious illegal detention charges.

Balisang said Arasani was arrested around 2:45 a.m. Wednesday in Barangay Tandung Ahas, Lamitan City, Basilan province on the strength of a warrant of arrest for kidnapping and serious illegal detention.

The presence of Arasani in Barangay Tandung Ahas was discovered through intensified intelligence operations, Balisang said.

He said that Arasani was involved in the kidnapping of six members of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in August of 2002 in Patikul, Sulu.

The victims - four females and two males - were on a door-to-door sale of comestic products when the bandits seized them.

The two male victims were found dead a day after.

They were beheaded.

The rest of the hostages were rescued after weeks of military operations against the Abu Sayyaf in the province of Sulu.

Arasani was also involved in a clash when the police forces raided a drug den in Barangay Recodo, 15 kilometers west of this city, Balisang said.

ACTING Regional Director Chief Supt. Gil Jamila Hitosis for Northern Mindanao hands over the symbolic key and construction documents to Sr. Supt. Madid M. Paitao, Lanao del Norte provincial director, which were subsequently handed over to Insp. Gerry Ligan, chief of Tubod police station. Tubod Town Mayor Nelieta Q.

President Evelyn Atillo of the Dipolog Pharmacists Association (DPA) said “the law covering this must be reviewed, as it has adversely affected the small drugstores.”

She said, their mark-up price on drugs is only three percent, “so, if a senior citizen buys medicines worth P2,000, he/she would have a discount amounting to P400 as provided for by law. Now, the profit from the P2,000 worth of drugs is only P60. What will happen to our capital?”

This, she lamented, is the reason why even the drugstores operated by certain groups of senior citizens have closed shop.

The assembly was attended by representatives from the water districts of Dipolog and Dapitan, Zamboanga del Norte Electric Cooperative, Smart Communications, Food and Drug Administration, Pharmacists Association, major business establishments in the city, media practioners, barangay officials, consumer groups and other stakeholders.

Teachers to ring school bells nationwide for salary increase TEACHERS all over the country are in observance today of the School Bell Ringing Day for Salary Upgrading.

The event is coordinated nationally and is spearheaded by the Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) and ACT partylist to highlight the clamor of education workers for adequate salaries.

At noon time, ACT partylist Representative Antonio L. Tinio will be ringing Batasan National High School’s bell for fifteen

minutes, symbolizing the long-standing demand to upgrade to Salary Grade (SG) 15 from SG 11 the minimum monthly pay of public school teachers.

The upgrading will give entry-level teachers P24,887 monthly instead of their current salary of P18,549.

Bells in other schools nationwide will be ringing simultaneously. ACT partylist expects principals and other school officials, who will also benefit from salary upgrading, to participate.

“In a rare occurrence,

teachers will encourage students to be as loud as they can, all the more for PNoy to hear, as he prepares his SONA, teachers’ claim to their right to adequate remuneration,” Tinio said.

The event is part of the campaign for the passage of HBs 2142 and 4523, which call for the upgrading of the salaries of teachers and teaching personnel in the tertiary level (from SG 12 to 16), and HB 3746 which call for a P6,000-increase in the minimum pay of other personnel.

MAYOR Vicente Emano this week announced that 300 more houses will rise at the Filipino-Chinese Friendship Village in Calaanan, Canitoan.

This, after the mayor signed a Memorandum of Agreement with a group of Chinese businessmen led by Lucio Tan, the Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry headed by its president, Tan Ching, and local Federation of Filipino-Chinese Asso-

ciation of the Philippines under Antonio Tan. The mayor expresses gladness over this development and thanked the Chinese community for its partnership in addressing the shelter needs of Internally Displaced Persons (IDP’s) in the city.

The mayor said with the help of the private sector the city is able to rise from the December 16 and 17 tragedy. lorebeth requiroso
