Department of Social Welfare and Development. In Sulu province, Reelectionist Gov. Totoh Tan has won a second term in a landslide victory against two Muslim politicians. Tan won by more than 70% against Cocoy Tulawie and Wahid Sahidula who tailed poorly behind. Continue on page 2

MNLF continues peaceful efforts to free Sayyaf captives SULU – Former rebel group Moro National Liberation continues to exert efforts in seeking the release of Abu Sayyaf hostages in the southern Filipino province of Sulu following the safe recovery of 4 Indonesian sailors in the town of Indanan. Abu Sayyaf jihadists last week freed four Indonesian tugboat crewmen after a series of negotiations by the MNLF chieftain Nur Misuari who persuaded the kidnappers to release the sailors without ransoms, according to provincial governor Totoh Tan, who received the Indonesians in his home in Jolo town. Misuari’s wife,

Tarhata, and former Indonesian army general Kivlan Zein accompanied the sailors – Mochammad Ariyanto Mijnan, Lorens Peter, Dede Irfan Hilmi and Samsir and handed them over to Tan. Zein sought Misuari’s help – for the second time - in the safe release of the hostages who were freed in Indanan town. Zein also briefed Tan on the role of Misuari in persuading the Abu Sayyaf to release the sailors, who were all tugboat crew members kidnapped last month at sea off TawiTawi province near the Sabah border, and brought them to Sulu province.

No ransom was paid for the freedom of the Indonesians,” Tan, chairman of the local crisis management committee, told the regional newspaper Mindanao Examiner. No one from among the hostages spoke, but they all thanked Tan and shook hands with him. Sulu Vice Governor Sakur Tan was also present during the meeting. Zein also praised Misuari and Tan and the

Philippine government in their role in securing the freedom of the Indonesians. “We thanked Brother Nur, the MNLF, Governor Tan and the Philippine government and all those who helped in securing the safe release of the hostages,” he said. Tan said the Indonesians were brought to a military hospital in Jolo town for a routine medical examination before being handed over to Indonesian government officials. Just last month, Misuari also sought the release of 10 Indonesian tugboat crew members kidnapped by the

Abu Sayyaf in Tawi-Tawi province after Zein appealed to the MNLF to help Jakarta in freeing the hostages. The seamen were brought by the MNLF at the residence of Tan who handed the, over to the authorities. The Abu Sayyaf – which pledged allegiance with the Islamic State militant group - is still holding four Malaysian sailors, a Canadian man, a Norwegian resort manager, a Dutch photographer and a Japanese treasure hunter in southern Philippines.

Paaralan at edukasyon, kapalit ng Indonesian hostages ZAMBOANGA CITY – Matapos na mapalaya ang unang grupo ng 10 Indonesian na binihag sa karagatan ng Tawi-Tawi province, lumabas ang isang impormasyon na ibang grupo ang nasa likod nito at hindi si Abu Sayyaf lider Alhabsi Misaya. Sa ekslusibong ulat ng Jakarta Post, nabatid na ang mga Indonesian crew member ng tugboat Brahma 12 ay binihag ni Tawing Humair at pinalaya ang mga hostages sa isa sa mga negosyador na si Ahmad Baedowi na siyang kumuha at sumundo sa mga ito sa kabundukan ng Sulu noong Mayo 1. Tulad ng iginiit ng Indonesian government, walang ransom na ibinigay sa grupo ng 30-anyos na si Humair, ngunit kapalit naman nito ay tulong para sa mga Muslim – edukasyon at iba pa – na ipinangako umano ng Sukma Foundation ni Indonesian media mogul Surya Paloh. Sa naturang ulat,

pinalaya ni Humair ang mga bihag dahil na rin sa pakiusap ng isang maimpluwensyang commander ng Moro National Liberation Front na pinangalanan lamang na Grand Alpha na kung saan ay sinasabing malaki ang utang na loob at respeto dito ni Humair. Muntik pa umanong pumalpak ang negosasyon dahil bukod kay Baedowi ay nakikipag-negosasyon rin umano ang dating Indonesian army general na si Kivlan Zein sa grupo ni Misaya matapos itong makipag-ugnayan kay MNLF chieftain Nur Misuari. Agad naman inutusan ni Misuari ang tauhang si Tahir, ngunit lingid sa kaalaman ni Misuari ay nakipag-ugnayan ito kay Grand Alpha hanggang sa makumbinsi nito si Humair na pakawalan ang mga bihag kapalit ng pagpapatayo ng paaralan sa Sulu at pagpapadala sa grupo ni Tahir at iba pang

mga Muslim na gustong mag-aral sa Aceh, Indonesia. “Without Misuari's knowledge, Tahir communicated with Grand Alpha, who said they should hold back their troops and not make any offensive moves against the group as the hostages' lives would be at risk. Later, Grand Alpha's team decided to step in to the rescue efforts as they knew the Indonesian government had negotiated with the wrong party. They were afraid that if a ransom was paid, the hostages would not be freed as there were a lot of similar cases going on,” ayon pa sa ulat. Handa na sana ang Patria Maritime Lines na siyang may-ari ng tugboat at amo ng mga Indonesians na magbayad kay Misaya ng $1.14 million o P50 milyon ransom subali’t hindi naman ito natuloy dahil wala kay Misaya ang mga bihag at hawak ng grupo ni Humair na pawang mga anak rin ng mga MNLF members.

Si Ahmad Baedowi sa kanyang pagsundo sa 10 Indonesians na pinalaya kamakailan lamang sa Sulu province sa ekslusibong larawan ng The Jakarta Post. “The negotiations instead comprised people-to-people dialogue, involving a respected figure from the Moro National Liberation Front), which was made possible due to a friendly promise made by the Sukma Foundation's humanitarian team to provide aid to support young generations of the Moro tribe in the Philippines.” “Grand Alpha said [to Tawing] that there is bigger opportunity than just transactions...bigger opportunities for Moro people's

future, education and welfare,” ayon pa sa source ng Jakarta Post na may alam sa nasabing pangyayari. “Grand Alpha had convinced the militants and said Indonesian Muslims were the only Asian neighbor that had good relations and could help Moro people with a peace process, as well as educational assistance and other transformative projects.” Inutusan rin ni Grand Alpha si Baedowi na sunduin ang mga pinalayang hostages at

ihatid sa bahay ni Sulu Gov. Totoh Tan upang maibigay nito sa mga awtoridad ang 10 Indonesians. Natawagan na rin umano ni Grand Alpha si Tan – na siyang chairman ng Sulu provincial crisis committee - upang sabihin na makakalaya na ang mga bihag. Agad naman kinupkop ni Tan ang mga Indonesians ng sila’y maihatid at pinakain bago nito pinadala sa pagamutan para sa isang routine medical check up at ibigay sa pulisya at militar.

TECH TIPS: Best dual-SIM Android smartphones

Payo ni Dr. Willie T. Ong

HEALTH: Kumain ng Almusal: Para Tumalino at Lumakas

Xiaomi Mi 5: a blockbuster at the price of a mid-range smartphone. (AndroidPIT) THE NUMBER of dual-SIM smartphones within the Android ecosystem has increased rapidly during the past few years. Being able to run two SIM cards simultaneously without having to pop out the SIM tray is a convenient feature that is fast becoming standard hardware for Android phones. Here is our list of the best dual-SIM Android phones. Xiaomi M Mii 5: the most po wer ful dual-SIM pow erful smar tphone smartphone The Xiaomi Mi 5 competes with flagship smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the LG G5. The Mi 5 packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, currently the fastest processor from US manufacturer Qualcomm, plus contains a lot of internal memory. It has, of course, a dual-SIM card slot as well. Although it’s a great Chinese Android phone, the Xiaomi Mi 5 is not commercially available in the United States. You’ll need to buy one online – but we think it’s worth the effort. Honor 7: the best allround dual-SIM smar tphone smartphone The Honor 7 provides value-for-money that other smartphones struggle to match. In our

review, we wrote that we were impressed by its design, fast fingerprint sensor and good battery life. The Honor 7 has dual-SIM support, 16 GB of memory and costs around $369. In late February, Honor released the EMUI 4.0 updated, which is based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Overall, the Honor 7 is good value and, if you’re looking for a dual-SIM device right now, it’s hard to beat. Moto G (2014): the best budget dual-SIM smar tphone smartphone For a bargain price you can get a Motorola Moto G (2014). We were surprised by the breadth of features it has when we reviewed it. Its 5-inch HD display is better than many others in its price range, which was $179 on release. In contrast to the devices above, with the Moto G you can insert not only two SIM cards, but also a microSD card. In terms of hardware, the Moto G performs better than similarly-equipped competitors thanks to its clean software. With the ability to insert a second SIM and microSD card, it offers flexibility as well as a welcome boost to internal memory in light of its slim internal memory of only 8 GB. Huaw ei P8 Lite: the best uawei

dual-SIM smar tphone smartphone for affor dable beauty affordable The dual-SIM Huawei P8 Lite is half as powerful as its big brother, the Huawei P8, but also costs half as much. Unlike the dual-SIM variant of the Moto G it supports LTE, has a better camera and also looks better. And inside you get double of everything that the Moto G has: 2 GB RAM, 16 GB flash memory (expandable if you only use one SIM card) and eight cores. This is very reasonable for the price. In addition to its good specs and reasonable performance, its premium look makes the P8 Lite a winner. It looks like a premium device, rather than a budget mid-ranger, when you slip it from your pocket. Honor 5X: the best dualSIM smar tphone with smartphone par allel micr oSD supparallel microSD por portt Although the dual-SIM Honor 5X may not be as powerful as the Honor 7, it has one big advantage over the others. You can choose to either use two SIM cards or one SIM plus a microSD card, but with the Honor 5X, you can use them all at once. Even better is that this 5.5-inch smartphone costs only $199. (Omar Hamwi, AndroidPIT)

AYON SA kasabihan, “Ang almusal ang pinakamahalagang pagkain natin sa buong araw.” Tama po itong paniniwala. Kahit alam kong marami sa atin ang hindi kumakain sa umaga, dapat pa rin natin ipaalala ang kahalagahan nito. Ito ang mga benepisyo ng pagkain ng almusal: 1. Para lumakas – Parang kotse na kulang sa gasolina, ang ating katawan ay manghihina kapag wala tayong pagkain. Kailangan ng utak natin ang pagkain para gumana. Tandaan natin na halos 10 oras nang walang laman ang ating tiyan pagdating ng umaga. Kaya dapat lang na lagyan ng pagkain o enerhiya sa umaga. 2. Para tumalino ang bata – Ang mga batang kumakain ng almusal ay nakakakuha ng mas mataas na grado sa eskuwelahan kumpara sa mga batang gutom. Mas alerto, matalino, at mabilis sumagot ang mga batang busog, kumpara sa hindi nag-almusal. Bigyan lamang ng

Dr. Willie T. Ong masustansyang almusal ang mga bata tulad ng itlog, gulay, isda, kanin, gatas, yogurt o cereals. 3. Para masigla sa trabaho – Tulad ng mga bata, ang mga matatandang hindi kumakain ng almusal ay hirap mag-concentrate o mag-focus sa trabaho. Pag dating ng alas-10 ng umaga ay parang balisa na sila. Wala nang sigla. Ito’y dahil naghahanap na ng pagkain ang katawan. Kaya para hindi aantok-antok at hindi mapagalitan sa trabaho, kumain ng almusal. 4. Para hindi magkaulcer – Ang mga taong madalas malipasan sa pagkain ay maaar ing magkaroon ng ulcer o pananakit ng tiyan. Para makaiwas dito, kailangan

tayong kumain ng pakonti-konti pero madalas sa isang araw. Kumain ng 5 hanggang 6 na beses sa isang araw, pero konti lang. Mas hindi mahihirapan ang iyong tiyan sa pagtunaw nito at mapapanatili pang tuloy-tuloy ang daloy ng lakas sa iyong katawan. 5. Hindi nakatataba ang pagkain ng almusal – May maling paniniwala na papayat ka kapag hindi ka nagalmusal. Sa katunayan, lalo ka pang tataba kapag hindi ka nagalmusal! Bakit po? Ang mga taong hindi nagalmusal ay mas gutom sa tanghalian, kaya s i g u r a d o n g mapaparami ang kanilang makakain. At mas kukuha ka ng sobrang daming kanin, ulam at panghimagas. Mahirap ding pumili ng masustansyang pagkain kapag gutom na gutom ka na. Kaya tandaan: Kung gusto ninyong maging malusog at masigla ang iyong katawan, kumain ng masustansyang almusal. Napakahalaga po nito.

RECIPE: Chicken Barbecue a la Aristocrat

INGREDIENT S: INGREDIENTS: - Soy sauce, just enough to achieve the color you like - 7up or Sprite, just enough to cover the meat - 1 large garlic head, peeled and crushed - 1 lemon, juiced - 2 tbsp. sugar - 3 chicken legs & 3 chicken thighs - coursely ground pepper - salt to taste INSTR UCTIONS: INSTRUCTIONS: 1) Combine all the ingredients, except the chicken.

Chicken barbecue must be marinated for minimum of 5 hours (to make it even tastier it can be marinated for up to 2 days and 2 nights max) 2) For the sauce and baste, Use about 2 cups of the marinade and add some oyster sauce (worcestershire from the original recipe), UFC catsup (will use it if you want to make it sweet) and 1 tablespoon of oil. Bring to a boil until sauce gets a bit thick. 3) Grill. I just used my pre-heated oven grill and basted 4 times for 20 minutes. Cook for 20 minutes at 180C, but additional of 10 minutes more won’t harm.
