End of bacyard farming industry COMMERCIAL hog producers will gradually replace backyard farms by 2025 due to the burden of investment in biosecurity measures required to keep African Swine Fever (ASF) at bay, the head of the agriculture chamber said. “Many small farms will be closed, with some acquired by larger farms to scale up leading to further market concentration. Successful farms will have better biosecurity, which will reduce the impact of ASF,” Philippine Chamber of Agriculture and Food, Inc. President Danilo V. Fausto said in a briefing on Friday. “Pig productivity will recover, driven by the higher share of large commercial farms as well as their knowledge and financial capability compared to backyard farmers,” he added.
OFW crisis center DAVAO City – The newlyopened Overseas Filipino Workers' (OFW) Family Welfare and Crisis Center here has so far served 18 clients, some of whom are non-residents. The center, manned by the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO), opened on May 2. It aims to provide various forms of assistance and psychosocial interventions for families left behind by OFWs. "We are offering the families of OFWs with psychosocial attention. It is not something that an average family here can think of as a factor that needed to be addressed. It only becomes noticeable when it gets worse," CSWDO chief Marissa Gallo said Tuesday.
Slaughterhouses DAVAO City – The city is set to open soon two new slaughterhouses to boost the economic performance of the local livestock sector, as both halal (permissive) and non-halal consumers can now avail of its products. The halal and non-halal slaughterhouses in Purok 3-A, Barangay Malagos will also have a designated space for meat vendors, Joseph Gabut, acting city economic enterprise slaughterhouse chief, said Monday. “It will become a onestop-shop because the pork meat from livestock to carcass proceeds immediately to the blast chiller and supplies to supermarkets, grocery, and meat shops. You can also opt to cut it into choice cuts such as pork chop or adobo cuts," he said.

By FRENCIE CARREON, MindaNews
ZAMBOANGA City -- The solar-powered seaweed dryers being used by farmers in the Zamboanga Peninsula have impressed Bicolanos wanting to establish their own farms that the regional director of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) there came over the weekend to check on the dryers. Ricardo Apolinario III, science and technolog y director of the DOST for Zamboanga and Isabela cities,
said that the solar-powered dryers being used by the farmers can dry seaweeds in two to three days, compared to the usual 10 to 14 days when leaving it out in the sun. Director Rommel Serrano, of DOST-V, said he checked the dryers in the seaweed farms because the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources in Bicol wanted to establish the seaweed industry DRYERS/PAGE 7
DAVAO City -- The high priority bus system (HPBS), a mass public transport modernization program that seeks to decongest traffic in this city, will affect three indigenous peoples’ communities in six barangays in four districts, according to an Asian Development Bank (ADB) document released in January.

SSS runs after CDO employers with P7.2-M unpaid contributions
THE Social Security System (SSS) here served notices to 11 employers who failed to remit around P7.2 million worth of contributions. In a statement Monday, SSS senior vice president for Mindanao operations group Edwin Alo said the move is part of the Run After Contribution Evaders (Race) initiative. Alo said similar written notices are also being prepared for other delinquent companies or commercial establishments with the same problem. "Our Race (written notices) is to let all employers be informed that there is a program they can avail of; if they intend to participate, there
will be a condonation of penalties for past contribution dues," he said. In one of the firms, the agency disclosed that 214 employees were affected due to their employer's non-remittance SSS contributions for a certain period. Alo said employers with unpaid contributions from March 2020 can choose to avail of the Pandemic Relief and Restructuring Program (PRRP) 2 or the Condonation of Penalties on Social Security Contribution. Under this program, qualified applicants are given a chance via one-time payment or UNPAID/PAGE 6

New SK law to enhance youth’s role in community service
T
HE president of the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) Federation in Cagayan de Oro City hailed the recent signing of a law providing honoraria to SK members, saying this
would incentivize youth leaders to do more for public service. John Michael Seno, the city’s SK Federation president, underscored Wednesday the importance of President Rodrigo
Duterte's signing of Republic Act 11768, which amended the Sangguniang Kabataan Reform Act of 2015. Signed on May 6, the new law provides other benefits that include class
exemptions and health insurance. A copy of RA 11768 was issued by Malacañang on Tuesday. Seno said the law will enable greater participation from SK ENHANCES/PAGE 6

Constructivism in Learning and Teaching By: JOSELITO L. LEGASPI Teacher III Barra Elementary School
Constructivism is a system of learning where the students do not just passively absorb information. Educational experts were concerned with what was going on in the mind of the student. There
is active participation from the students. They are taught to relate the knowledge they are being given by the teachers and relate it to their experiences in life. The educational method
is crucial because it teaches students to think critically. In the classroom, they become engaged and driven. Students learn to build their own knowledge of the content or literature. Students learn to think independently and autonomously. Students learn to engage more in problem-solving and avoid being passive using this method to be learning. The skill of problemsolving is important and even assist the students in their adult life. It is a skill for life and that is what education should be. The student develops his mental processes. It is a process of discovery for the student as he experiments with ideas t problem solving and getting solutions for the issue in his environment. Students view the world through the lens of their own experiences and social interactions, and anytime a new experience arises, the student tends to analyze both the old and new experiences. As a result, the pupil is more likely to think about previous events. If this is how individuals behave, then classroom teaching should take advantage of this and utilize a method that allows pupils to love earning.

Liberalized rice trading lowers staple food price for Filipinos
T
HE passage and implementation since 2019 of the Rice Tariffication Law (RTL) has slashed prices of the country’s staple food to the current average of P39 per kilogram (kg) or a reduction of about P7 per kilogram compared to its cost in 2018 when it peaked to a per-kilo retail
cost of around P46. Freed from local entrenched interests that took advantage of the protectionist policy on rice for decades, this staple food is now more affordable, especially for low-income Filipinos who spend about 16 percent of their total household budget on rice. President Rodrigo
Teachers preparedness for limited face to face classes By GRACE MAE M. ESTAÑO Teacher III
PUBLIC school principals and teachers in the Philippines are on their toes as the progressive expansion of face to face classes takes a higher level. Regional directors of DepEd have ordered schools (both public and private) to commence the progressive expansion phase of face to face classes as instructed by Secretary Leonor Briones. Health protocols and standards are being observed to the hilt. For instance, schools need to be validated as compliant with the standards of the School Safety Assessment Tool. The good thing about the expanded in-person classes is that only schools located in areas under
Alert Levels 1 and 2 have been allowed as assessed periodically by D OH. DepEd confirmed that other grade levels based based on the capacity of schools may be already be included. The mayor of the city or municipality aside from barangay chairmen must concur with the expansion of school classes through the coordination of the schools. Do not discount parents, too. Their written consent must be obtained before their children are allowed to participate in the face to face classes. With lesser Covid-19 cases now, schools have been tasked to be flexible in contact time for teaching and learning.
Duterte signed the RTL into law on Feb. 14, 2019 as Republic Act 11203. The law, which later took effect on March 5, 2019, replaced rice import quantitative restrictions with tariffs. “The Rice Tariffication Law was finally achieved after more than thirty years of failed attempts under previous administrations. The law opened up the Philippine rice market and, in turn, reduced the price of our country’s staple food for more than
100 million Filipinos,” Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez III said in a statement Sunday. As a result of this reform, which he first proposed three decades ago when he was Agriculture Secretary, rice is no longer a main contributor to inflation, Dominguez said. “It took the strong political will of the President for rice tariffication to finally happen for the benefit of our consumers,” he added.
With rice made affordable through the RTL, the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) estimates that three years from now, the proportion of malnourished children and population at risk of hunger in the country would be reduced by 2.8 percent and 15.4 percent, respectively. These estimates are equivalent to around 2.1 million less people at risk of hunger and
malnutrition, the NEDA said. In 2018 before the RTL took effect, the retail price of regular-milled rice (RMR) spiked to P46.04 per kg. After RTL, the average price of this rice variety went down to P39.13 as of April 2022, or cheaper by P6.91 per kg. Another key benefit of RTL is the flow of billions of pesos in funds to the agriculture sector through the creation of the P10-billion PRICE/PAGE 6
Filinvest Land’s income slips to P678M FILINVEST Land, Inc. reported a net income of P677.77 million attributable to equity holders in the first quarter, down 8% from a year ago, as gross revenues dipped while expenses increased. In its quarterly financial report, the property developer said gross revenues during the quarter slipped by 0.5% to P4.14 billion while its gross expense rose by 0.7% to P2.76 billion. Separately, Filinvest Land said in a media release that its residential revenues surged by 9% to P2.69 billion in the first quarter, driven by high reservation sales and continued
construction progress. “We are pleased with the continued growth of our residential revenues, and we expect to sustain this momentum as the economy, both here and abroad, continues to open,” said Filinvest Land President Tristaneil D. Las Marias on Monday. Mr. Las Marias said overseas Filipino workers (OFW) “are starting to gain traction once again.” “We plan to boost our international sales network further and improve our digital and online platforms to reach out to more OFW markets abroad,” he added. He said Filinvest Land would continue speeding up
construction completions while rolling out projects in emerging markets with large unserved housing demand. “We anticipate an improvement in rental revenues going forward now that the traffic has improved in malls and rental concessions will be reduced,” he added. Reservation sales in the first quarter increased by 28% to P4.39 billion, due to high sales to OFWs and strong demand for housing products in the Laguna, Cavite, Rizal, Bulacan, and Pampanga market areas. The company has a planned bond issuance worth P8 billion with an
oversubscription option of up to P3.9 billion. The funds generated from the proposed offering will be used to support its capital expenditures and service debt repayments. Filinvest Land said it is aiming to expand its leasing business to reach 2.1 million square meters of gross leasable area by 2026 and is ready to launch P30 billion worth of residential projects. “We are grateful for this development as we reach our growth targets for our leasing and residential businesses,” Filinvest Land Chief Executive Lourdes Josephine Gotianun-Yap said.

Character worth copying Think a minute… A man named Cliff Streigling told about an older man, Bud Abbot, who changed his life. This is Cliff ’s story and testimony. “When we met in 1972, Bud was 52 and I was 18. Bud was a Navy veteran of WWII who piloted landing craft on dangerous missions in the South Pacific. I was a longhaired kid with no direction or discipline in my life. We met in a woodworking shop where Bud was a master carpenter and I was a knownothing amateur. During the 18 months I worked for him, Bud took me from a teenager rebelling against all authority to a young man willing to accept personal responsibility for my actions and decisions. He instilled in me a work ethic and love for learning that remains with me to this day. Bud inf luenced such a complete change in me because he practiced what he preached. He was always 30 minutes early for work. He never overstayed a coffee or lunch break by even one minute. He never put his

Bud taught by example that always doing your best is what’s important, whether you’re paid and praised for it or not. He told me again and again that I needed a trade or an education, and he recommended education. I followed Bud’s advice for living because his daily example convinced me to believe and trust him.

never imagined to be that accurate, even to the extent of being ‘fast and furious’. Even the old and cranky Mike Enriquez had to say goodbye to his program and go home for good upon learning the numbers going by the millions for BBM-Sara Tandem. By any yardstick, BBM popularly known by the throng of his supporters far and wide was the early runaway favorite among t h e p r e s i d e nt i a b l e s a s manifested by a series of sur veys done before the election.

recent move by a group of civic leaders asking the Supreme Court to halt the looming electoral victory of BBM, the die has been cast. The Filipino voters have already spoken. ‘Judge me not by my ancestors, but by my actions,’ this was BBM’s reply to all bashers as the nation awaits for the inaugural date of the country’s 16th president.

ELECTION is over. The results are out. Perhaps by the time this article comes out, most of the winners have b e en pro cl aime d. The usual family dynasties are back in power, some unexpected winners, some first-timers. Most of those who did not make it have gracefully accepted defeat while others are still lodging their protests. Followers and supporters are either celebrating or comforting each other. Meanwhile, ever yone is hoping and praying that things will turn out for the best. S o mu c h h o p e a n d expectation are pinned on this election, that we really felt the passion, involvement, engagement, and energy of everyone, regardless of political affiliation, from campaign sorties to the actual election day. Followers and believers of the different candidates went all out in showing their support. Many took it to the streets during the rallies, donating food,
drinks, campaign collateral, or simply with their presence. Some even did house-tohouse campaigning on behalf of their candidates. While others actively participated thru their social media accounts and other forms of media. FB feeds kept coming in from all camps. Everyone is rooting for their chosen candidates as the stakes are high! This high engagement continued up to Election Day. The number is not yet out, but we may have registered the highest voters turn out last May 9. I believe the highest, at 86%, was during the 1998 election where Joseph Estrada won. Last Monday, as early as 6 am, eager and excited voters flocked to the voting centers. Even the senior citizens and persons with disability (PWDs) made their way through their assigned precincts. Those who had to work on that day, did their best to beat the 7 pm closing time. Everyone was flexing their inked index
finger indicating they had successfully voted. While there were other factors that caused delays, the high volume of voters' turnout was a big pleasing factor. The heat and the long wait did not deter them. Everyone wants to be counted as the stakes are high! We say that this election is already for future generations. And if they put their acts t o g e t h e r, t h e s e y o u n g generations, which already comprise more than half of our population, can be a solid voting bloc. These millennials plus, on their own, can win an election. They dominated the streets during the campaign rallies. They either spearheaded or actively participated in volunteer work. And they showed their force last Monday. The majority of the voters came from these young generations. It’s heartwarming to see that they got involved, they cared and participated in something they consider vital in shaping

The vine and the branches Once again, we are reminded in the gospel of Wednesday of the fifth week of Easter that Christ is the vine and we are the branches. In short, we need to be united to Christ if we want to continue living and bearing fruit as befits our dignity as children of God, created in his image and likeness and meant to share his divine life. (cfr. Jn 15,1-8) Yes, only in and with Christ can we have the real principle of unity and fruitfulness amid the varying conditions in our life. We would be fooling ourselves if we fail to recognize this basic truth about ourselves. This, of course, is a truth of faith, not so much of science. And that’s where the problem lies. There is a crisis of faith in the world, especially involving those who rely more on their human abilities than on belief in Christ. It’s a phenomenon that can call to mind two contrasting dramatic stories in the Bible. One is the story of the Tower
of Babel, and the other is the story of Pentecost. In the episode of the Tower of Babel, those who survived the flood have multiplied and have gotten so intoxicated by their powers and good fortune that they now want to reach heaven by their own efforts alone, by building a tower. God intervenes, as he always does in our life, and confounds them by making them speak different languages so that they would not understand each other anymore. The project ends in total failure, and new troubles emerge for the people. The story of Pentecost offers a counterpoint. We have different people speaking different languages. But since they believe in God, they are filled with the Holy Spirit. This is how they get to understand each other. They are not made into a uniformed mass. The differences are respected and even fostered. And yet there is unity among them, with a certain focus of attention
that is a result of such unity. We have to reiterate the truth that we need Christ who is our “way, truth and life” with God to have a solid, genuine unity of life and an unwavering focus even in the midst of so many things in our life. Christ himself expressed this ardent desire very clearly when just before his passion, death, and resurrection he prayed that we become “perfectly one” (“consummati in unum,” in Latin) and we be one with him (“utu num sint”). We have to realize that the redemptive mission of Christ was meant to make us one with him, living members of his mystical body which is now referred to as the Church. It’s a unity that not merely a result of some natural forces, achieved social, cultural or political laws, but a unity of spirit, of mind and heart, much like the unity that exists between the God the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
HINTS AND TRACES
ROY CIMAGALA It’s a unity that is the fruit of God’s grace that is corresponded to generously by us. Insofar as God is concerned, all the means are given for us to be united and fruitful with him. What is needed is our generous correspondence to his will and ways. Strengthening our unity with Christ insures us that we would be on the right track toward the goal proper to us, that we would be effective in what we are doing, and healthy and resistant to anything that can weaken us or lead us astray.

DAVAO CITY—Despite the pandemic, AboitizPower subsidiary Therma South, Inc. (TSI), together with Ramon Aboitiz Foundation, Inc. (RAFI) and its project partners, continues to make strides toward their goal of planting 1 million trees by 2024 as part of its Carbon Sink Management Program (CSMP). “The goal of the CSMP is to establish a long-lasting and significant strategy for carbon sequestration to mitigate the emissions of the power plant, while enjoining our indigenous communities to be partners in environmental stewardship, forest protection and conservation, and working towards sustainable development goals such as life on land ,” TSI Reputation and Stakeholder Management Supervisor JK Huyatid said. Established in 2015, the CSMP aims to create a carbon sink by forging partnerships with various indigenous peoples’ groups and communities in Davao

Effects of pandemic on pupils’ learning By GRACE MAE M. ESTAÑO Teacher III
ALMOST 1.6 billion students across the world were affected by school closures because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Even short disruptions in a child’s schooling have significant negative effects on their learning and can be longlasting. These losses may translate to greater long term impacts with the burden falling heaviest on the disadvantaged. While some countries managed to limit the losses, recent research on the actual impact of Covid-19 on l e ar n i ng pro g re s s shows that school closures frequently have a large, persistent and unequal effect on learning. Online education is an imperfect substitute for in-person learning particularly for children from low income families. Early reviews based on
limited data from high income countries suggest l ar g e l e ar n i n g l o s s e s and increased learning inequality. Mo s t s t u d i e s f i n d evidence of learning loss. The studies consistently find different levels of learning loss by student socio-economic status, past academic learning and subject of learning. The longer the schools remained closed, the greater were the learning losses. P u b l i c h e a lt h a n d education workers have long been concerned about the effects of school closures on children’s learning wellbeing. More than two years into the Covid-19 pandemic, the experiment of remote learning has not yielded results that will enable parents or teachers to view it as a viable alternative for children.

Rice C ompetitiveness Enhancement Fund (RCEF), which is used exclusively to finance programs that will sharpen the competitiveness of palay growers by way of providing them with easy access to fertilizer, farm machinery and equipment, high-yield seeds and cheap credit; and offering them skills training programs on farm mechanization and modern farming techniques. Under the RTL, all import duties collected from rice imports beginning March 5, 2019 go to the RCEF and other agriculture modernization programs. In the first four months of 2022 alone, the Bureau of Customs (BOC) already collected PHP6.6 billion in duties from rice imports, which is already two-thirds of the PHP10 billion earmarked annually for RCEF. T h e Nat i o n a l Fo o d Authority (NFA) monopolized rice importations before the RTL, with a few private traders granted import permits that enabled them to control the price and supply of rice through hoarding and other manipulative practices. With RTL, the role of the NFA has been limited
to ensuring emergency rice stocks exclusively procured from local palay growers. Dominguez said that w it h r ice t ar if f ic at ion, the government was able to handle the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) crisis “with strength on the food security front.” He said that despite logistical restrictions resulting from the mobility restrictions or lo ckdow ns imp os e d nationwide to protect people and communities from the pandemic, the government was able to sustain the flow of produce from local farms to Filipino consumers. The agriculture sector was “one of the brightest spots” of the Philippines' response to the pandemic owing in large part to the RTL, Dominguez added. (PR)

year, adding to the challenges that dismayed investors and stalling other open-pit projects. Duterte, who will end his six-year term next month, lifted the nationwide ban late last year, one of his two landmark policy reversals that sought to revitalise the mining industry. “South Cotabato’s local legislative body has voted to lift the provincial ban, clearing the only hurdle remaining in developing one of the largest copper-gold reserves in Southeast Asia,” Wilfredo Moncano, director of the regulator, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau, said. “All the major requirements to legally support the mining operation has been complied with,” he added. The Tampakan project, in which commodities giant Glencore previously had a controlling stake before it decided to quit amid regulatory uncertainties, has estimated resources of 15 million tonnes of copper and 17.6 million ounces of gold, according to developer Sagittarius Mines Inc. But Duterte’s former environment minister who had opposed mining – the late Gina Lopez – had described Tampakan as “a 700-football field open-pit mine on … agricultural lands, affecting four provinces and six rivers”. D ut e r t e’s s u c c e s s or, Ferdinand Marcos Jr., said in an interview with local media during the campaign that he was open to allowing “sustainable” mining but was wary about the open-pit method of mineral extraction.

in their area. Apolinario told MindaNews that DOST-IX has installed 11 seaweed dryers in Zamboanga City, 7 in Zamboanga Sibugay, 2 in Zamboanga del Sur, and 4 in Zamboanga del Norte. He said it was conceptualized and developed by Dr. Ronel S. Pangan, of the Center for Agri-Fisheries and Biosystems Mechanization (BIOMECH) at the University of the Philippines in Los Baños According to Apolinario, Dr. Pangan’s main reason for developing the technology is “the low quality of seaweeds we export because of the impurities like sand and dirt” as it takes too long to dry the seaweeds. Pangan reportedly first piloted the dryer in Palawan. The solar-powered seaweed dr yer provides for a 24/7 operation of the exhaust fan to ensure that moisture inside the dryer is not absorbed back by the seaweeds, Apolinario noted. He added that they have allocated P7.6 million for Grants-in-Aid (GIA) funds for the development of the region’s seaweed industry. Apolinario said that in Zamboanga City, which has 709 seaweed farmers,
they distributed dr yers to Kasanyangan Nursery Seaweed Enterprises Inc., Maharlika Seaweeds Farmer Marketing Cooperative, and the barangay governments of Tigtabon, Mampang, Dita and Buenavista. He said that in Zamboanga del Sur, with 150 seaweed farmers, dryers were given to Pagadian City and the municipality of Dumalinao. In Zamboanga del Norte, having 1200 seaweed farmers, drying facilities were placed in the municipalities of Jose Dalman, Manukan, Rizal and Sindangan. In Zamboanga Sibugay, with its 624 seaweed farmers, dryers were given to the Katipunan Vegetable and Agar-Agar Growers Association (KVAGA) in Ipil town, the municipal governments of Alicia, Mabuhay, Olutanga, Payao and Talusan, and the Manga Fishing Seaweeds Association (MAFISA) in Buluan, Ipil. Aside from the solarpowered seaweed dr yer, Serrano also checked on the information systems developed and maintained by the regional office for the seaweed farmers. Aris Moratalla, of DOST-IX’s information, communications and technology unit, said that IT systems for day-to-day operations are necessary in the seaweed industry as they facilitate ease of transactions and traceability of office processes, for both internal and external, insofar as the seaweed production is concerned.

Peoples’ (NCIP) regional office, the Davao City Legal Office and the Department of the Interior and Local Government’s (DILG) city office as members of a local inter-agency committee (LIAC) to assist residents affected by the upcoming HPBS and the Mindanao Railway Project. EO7 amends EO56, series of 2021, which named the members of the inter-agency committee. EO56 had the regional offices of the DILG and the NCIP as members. The local measures were a response to a letter by the DOTr last year for the city to create the body to assist in the resettlement of anyone affected by the two projects. “In order to ensure the successful integration and effective management of the resettlement aspects of HPBS
Project and MRP, there is a need to formulate a Local Inter-Agency Committee for Resettlement to properly manage and coordinate the concerns pertaining this aspect across all agencies,” Mayor Duterte said in EO7 issued on February 16. T h e H P B S i n c lu d e s t wo det ai le d pl ans for resettlement: a Resettlement Plan for depots, terminals, and the driving school, and another document called the Resettlement and Indigenous Peoples Plan (RIPP) for the bus stops and pedestrian improvements, which will traverse three IP communities, the ADB said in its website. A document published in the ADB website identifies D av a o C it y ’s H PB S a s having in its transport modernization three main c o m p o n e n t s , n a m e l y, public transport system improvement, institutional capacity strengthening, and social development program. The draft describes the bus-based network as having at least 100 kilometers in its core and a feeder network comprising over 500 kilometers. The bus system will include at least 29 route networks plied by 18- and 12-meter bus units. It will have at least three public transport terminals, five depots, a school for bus drivers, 1,074 bus stops, and improvements to the pedestrian network. The ADB do c ument aims “to identify all impacts associated with land acquisition and resettlement i nv o l v i n g l a n d ow n e r s , nonlandowners, owners of businesses and institutions and trees and crops.” According to the ADB, the final output will change depending on the outcome of coordination with stakeholders. Me anw h i l e , j e e pn e y stakeholders ostensibly affected by the HPBS program are already being assisted by the DOTr through a social development program. For the HPBS alone, the land acquisition for the Project will affect seven barangays in Davao City, namely Cabantian, Bunawan Proper, Calinan Proper, Lacson, Panacan, Catalunan Pequeño and Bato. The total land area to be acquired is 52.30 hectares of land, of which 48.30 are private and 4 are public. Currently, the city is running an interim HPBS
