EMB bares water sampling results CAGAYAN de Oro City–– The Environment and Management Bureau (EMB) conducted on Wednesday a public hearing for the water classification of Macajalar Bay in Misamis Oriental. The activity is a way of getting comments and consensus from the stakeholders on their preferred classification based on the revised water criteria under DENR Administrative Order No. 34 (DAO 34). EMB 10 director Sabdullah C. Abubacar said there were two basic considerations for the process, one is based on its beneficial use, and the other on its water quality during the time of the classification. “The reason why we’re having this public hearing, after the water sampling ac-

tivity, is to determine what the public really wants for Macajalar Bay,” Abubacar explained. The most controlling part, he noted, is “the best use” criterion. The EMB, with the support of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), have completed the necessary field survey wherein they were able to conduct a three-year series water-sampling activity, scheduled twice in a year to cover both the dry and wet season. The sampling stations were distributed in all 14 towns covering the 65-kilometer stretch of the Macajalar Bay coastline from La Esperanza in Kinoguitan town to Laguindingan. Engr. Marivic F. Llui-

sima, chief of the EMB 10 laboratory section said in an interview with the Philippine Information Agency that the towns will either be classified as class “SB” and “SC,” depending on the water sampling results generated, in consideration also to its best usage. “SB” classification is good for Recreational Water Class 1 (Areas regularly used by the public for bathing, swimming, skin diving, etc.) and fishery Water Class 1 (Spawning areas for chanos or bangus and similar species). While class “SC” is categorized for Recreational Water Class II (e.g. boating, etc), Fishery Water Class II (commercial and sustenance fishing) and Marshy and/or mangrove areas declared as

fish and wildlife sanctuaries. The classification of a water body according to a particular designated use does not preclude use of the water for other purposes that are lower in classification provided that such use does not prejudice the quality criteria required for such waters. EMB likewise reminded LGUs to harmonize its entire comprehensive and coastal resource management plans with its water classification. She also mentioned that their office is now starting the consolidation of the data gathered for the final water

Zamboanga students, journos attend forum on media ethics ZAMBOANGA City––Dozens of students and journalists attended a forum on “Media Ethics and Media’s Role in the Transformation of Society” in Zamboanga City in the southern Philippines. The event was organized by the local chapter of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines under Frencie Carreon and the Ateneo de Zamboanga University. Mary Jean Andrada, of the Ateneo Mass Communication Department, coordinated and moderated the forum. Good governance champion and Jesuit priest Albert Alejo was invited to speak

during the forum attended by mass communication and journalism students from Ateneo de Zamboanga and Western Mindanao State University. Fr. Alejo, author of the book “Ehemplo: Spirituality of Shared Integrity in Philippine Church and Society,” urged students and journalists to write in-depth analysis and articles about Mindanao and its culture, and important events that would have impact an impact to the readers in general. Carreon, in appreciation to the priest’s dedication and advocacy, handed him a plaque. Ehemplo is also call of people dedicated to live a life of honor, integrity and

good examples. Ehemplo is based on espousing “Ehem” - the urgent call for cultural reform against corruption in the Philippines. Ehem aims at bringing people to a renewed sensitivity to the evil of corruption and its prevalence in ordinary life. It seeks ultimately to make them more intensely aware of their own vulnerability to corruption, their own un-critiqued, often unwitting practice of corruption in daily life. Ehem hopes to bring people, in the end, to a commitment to live the way of Ehemplo - critical of corruption, intent on integrity, according to its organizers. (Mindanao Examiner)

Log ban yields favorable results President Benigno Aquino III’s total log ban and reforestation tually stopping timber the Philippine ranking by eight notches to policies have yielded positive results boosting the government’s extraction of about 300 million board feet a year. No. 42 in 2012 from No. campaign against illegal logging and forest destruction, according The President also 50 in 2010 among the to Environment and Natural Resources Secretary Ramon J. P. Paje. “We are making progress in expanding the country’s forest cover and protecting the remaining forests from degradation with our implementation of the National Greening Program and logging ban,” he said T h e e nv i r o n m e nt chief also cited the government’s intensified enforcement of forestry laws, which resulted in the prosecution and conviction of a number of environmental violators. S ec. Paje said the implementation by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) of the

logging ban in natural forests pursuant to Executive Order (EO) No. 23 has brought about drastic reduction of illegal logging "hotspots" from 197 to 31.

EO 23, which was s i g ne d by Pre s i d e nt Aquino in Febr u ar y 2011, has also halted all authorized logging operations in natural forests nationwide, vir-

CAGAYAN de Oro City - The independent factfinding committee tasked by DENR-10 Regional Executive Director Ruth M. Tawantawan to look into the robbery at the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) 10, has disclosed the loss of various computer accessories on November 9. The lost items include three flat computer monitors, three keyboards, three computer mouse, a computer camera and two automatic voltage regulator (AVR). The committee further disclosed that wires attached to the Central Processing Unit (CPU) were not taken by the robbers. General Services Section Chief Susana Talampas heads the committee, with Budget Section Chief Myrna Kawaling, Legal Division Staff Francis Palle and Property Custodian Raul Zapatos, members. It was reported that the stolen items were acquired on October 2011. The committee could not yet determined the estimated cost of the lost items, since these are not indicated in the property/ IT Ledger Card. The report further said, the thief may have entered

the EMB office, through the glass windows at the ladies rest room, which is usually left open to allow the smell of room to escape. Ocular inspection conducted by the committee revealed that the Office of Regional Director Sabdullah Abubacar was also ransacked as evidenced by two broken plaques on the floor. It was believed that the thief attempted to detach the LCD-TV attached to the wall. The team recommended the augmentation of the number of roving security guards and probation of lightings at the back of the

EMB building or at the perimeter fence of the DENR 10 compound.Other recommendations of the team, include the regular monitoring of the performance of security guards on duty and installation of barbed wire fencing on top of the concrete fence to dissuade would-be-thieves. Determining the actual cost of lost items for proper recording in the Inventory Report of Plant, Property and Equipment as basis for dropping in the Book of Accounts was also recommended by the team. (RPAO # 11-331-2012/ jdelpf )

Initial results of EMB -10 robbery probe disclosed

issued in February last year EO 26 establishing the National Greening Program. The ambitious program seeks to plant some 1.5 billion trees covering about 1.5 million hectares in six years, from 2011 to 2016. So far, the DENR has planted 142.6 million seedlings on more than 232,000 hectares all over the country. The program also generated over 364,000 jobs. At the same time, Sec. Paje said the government’s forest conservation programs are starting to gain international recognition. Just recently, EO 23 and EO 26 were two of the five categories that received a perfect score of 100 percent in the 2012 Environmental Performance Index (EPI) of the World, improving

132 countries evaluated by four respected international institutions. The Philippines outranked countries like S out h Kore a (43rd), Australia (48th), United States (49th), Singapore (52nd) and Israel (61st). EPI is an evaluation of the sustainability of the environmental programs and policies of the countries concerned. The evaluation was made by the Yale University , Columbia University, the World Economic Forum and the Joint Research Center of the European Commission. “ This re cog nit ion confirms that we are on the right track in addressing the problems of illegal logging and forest denudation,” he said. Paje said the DENR’s anti-illegal logging drive has recently netted the

confiscation of more than 19 million board feet of forest products, filing of 546 cases in courts and conviction of 72 persons. He said the “hot logs” have been converted into chairs and donated to the Department of Education. As of late, more than 100,000 pieces of chairs and desks have been turned over to the education department. Paje likewise noted that the anti-corruption reforms being implemented by the DENR have produced unprecedented success. For the first time in many years, the DENR was given double upgrade by the business community on Sincerity against Corruption in the latest Social Weather Stations sur vey. This allowed the agency to jump 35 notches, from a rating of -34 in 2009 to +1 in 2012. (DENR Web/jdelpf )

DENR to fund establishment of clonal facility at USM NORTH Cotabato - Plans for the establishment of a clonal facility at the University of Southern Mindanao (USM) in Kabacan, Cotabato is now on its final stages. DENR-Region 12 Executive Director Adeluisa G. Siapno said the memorandum of agreement on the partnership was already signed by USM President Jesus Antonio G. Derije and forwarded to DENR Secretary Ramon J. P. Paje for signature. Director Siapno said that once the MOA is perfected, the DENR will obligate the amount of P3.5 million in favor of USM for the construction of the clonal facility. “The clonal facility will have state-of-art technolo-

gies as the primary intention is to produce high quality seedlings for planting under the National Greening Program. And to ensure high survival rate, the seedlings that will be produced in the clonal facility will come from superior indigenous forest tree species such as lauan, molave, and tanguile, ” she explained. Aside from the monetary support, the DENR has also committed under the agreement to extend technical assistance to USM, particularly on the scientific approach to clonal nursery operation. “We will not only provide funding support, but we will also capacitate our counterparts and transfer the appropriate technology to them,” Director Siapno

The wheels of environmental justice should turn faster, as the environment hearing officers are undergoing training i n hand l i ng e nv i ronment al cas es st ar ting Nov. 21 to Nov. 24 at the Hotel H2O of the Manila Ocean Park in Manila. Around 90 particip a nt s a r e at t e n d i n g , composed mainly of officials and personnel of the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) an d DE N R , w h o w i l l eventually be designated as hearing officers. The 4-day Seminar on the Rules of Procedure for Environmental Cases and Training for Hearing Officers is organized by EMB, in coordination with the Judicial Branch. DENR Secretary Ramon J. P. Paje said the t raining-s eminar was conceptualized to address the growing public clamor for a speedier administration of environmental justice, particularly to commu n it i e s a f f e c t e d by those whose activities have been detrimental to the safety and welfare of both humans and the environment. “ This training will g u i d e o u r E M B p e rsonnel in the disposition of their mandate on environmental law enforcement, as it will provide them with the legal know-how on court procedures concerning e nv i ron me nt a l v i ol a tions,” he explained. He added that a well-

capacitated legal team would also be able to provide technical inputs to help environmental prosecutors in preparing their legal arguments, as well as judges in rendering fair decisions on e nv i ron m e nt a l c a s e s , w it h out pre ju d i c e t o the contending parties. The training-seminar wou l d t a c k l e , am ong others, subjects on environmental law development, civil procedure, criminal procedure and evidence. Resource persons include Court of Appeals Associate Justices Jose Reyes Jr. and Oswaldo Agcaoili (retired); Supreme Court (SC) Associate Justice Diosdado Peralta; and Sandiganbayan Associate Justice Alexander Gesmundo. Par ticipants would also be trained on the role and demeanor of hearing officers, as well as on decision writing to facilitate the faster administration of justice. The SC promulgated i n 2 0 1 0 t h e Ru l e s of Procedure for Environmental Cases. This was in response to a clamor f rom e nv i ron m e nt a l ists wishing to penalize violators with blatant disregard for environmental laws for their ow n e c onom i c g ai ns .

stressed. USM Pres. Derije welcomed the partnership even as he said that “in the past, our participation in the reforestation program of the DENR was very minimal, hence, a sense of ownership was never felt”. He also said he will mobilize the students enrolled under the National Service Training Program (NSTP) to assist in all the activi-

ties related to the greening program. The MOA provides that the university shall allocate an area within its sprawling campus on which the clonal nursery shall be constructed. It will undertake mass production of cloned quality planting materials for distribution to beneficiaries identified by the DENR field offices in the region. (DENR Web/jdelpf )

Think A Minute Jhan Tiafau Hurst

Two little words THINK a minute. A husband and wife had not spoken to each other for days. They were still angry at one another since their last fight. By the 5th day, the husband realized he had a problem. He needed his wife to wake him up early the next day to catch a plane for an important business trip. But not wanting to talk to her and lose the fight, he put a note on the kitchen table. It read: “Please wake me up at 5AM tomorrow morning.” The next morning when the husband woke up, it was 7 o’clock! He was so angry that he had missed his plane, he was just about to yell at his wife for not waking him when he found a note next to his bed. It read: “Wake up! It’s 5 o’clock!” Why do we find it so hard to say those 2 little words, “I’m sorry”? If we’re honest, most of us are better at remembering the people who should tell us they’re sorry than we are at paying our own “sorry” debt. Yet if we would just apologize sooner we could save our friendships, fam-

Why do we find it so hard to say those 2 little words, “I’m sorry” ily relationships, as well as a lot of time, energy, even money. A British study showed that 37% of people who had sued doctors or hospitals in court would not have done it if their doctor had simply apologized to them. You know, when it comes to taking the blame for something, most people fall into 1 of these 2 groups. The first group almost never thinks that they caused any of the problem. It’s always someone else’s fault and they should apologize to you. The second group often blame themselves for causing the problem and they apologize quickly. But both extremes of always being a blame taker or a blame shifter are not healthy. The key in each situation is to be honest. Then admit that since it

“THEREFORE, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” 2 Corinthians 5:17: As believers, we all believe that we all no longer live for ourselves but since we already have died with Christ . We should no longer be worldly, instead spiritual. Our old nature must be nailed and dead to the cross with Christ. It was buried with Him. What is meant by a new creation? It is something created by God, stated in John 1:13 that says “ children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God. first we must grasp that it is in fact a creation, something created by God. The new creation is completely new, brought about from nothing.

The New Generation Alex A. Podador “Old things have passed away.” The “old” means our old nature— pride, sinful life, bad habits and others. The new creature now focuses towards Christ instead of one’s self. The old things died, nailed to the cross with our sin nature. “The new has come!” Old, dead things are replaced with new things, full of life and the glory of God. Our purposes, feelings, desires, and understandings are fresh and different. The Bible seems to be a

new book, and though we may have read it before, there is a beauty about it which we never saw before, and which we wonder at not having perceived. The whole face of nature seems to us to be changed, and we seem to be in a new world. There are new feelings toward all people—a new kind of love toward family and friends, a new compassion never before felt for enemies, and a new love for all mankind. The sin

BWM MAG we once held onto, we now desire to put away forever. But there is a difference between continuing to sin and continuing to live in sin. We, we still sin, but unwillingly and less and less frequently as we mature. Our new self hates the sin that still has a hold on us. The difference is that the new creation is no longer a slave to sin, as we formerly were. We are now freed from sin and it no longer has power over us. Now we are empowered by and for righteousness. We now have the choice to “let sin reign” or to count ourselves “dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus” We now we have the power to choose not to sin. Being a new creation is a new state of life with the Savior, being created by God.

Advocacy Mindanao Jess Dureza validate later. ***** FLASH BACK ----Here’s a bit of flash back. We discovered Beth’s kidney problems sometime before 2008. The functionality of both kidneys were impaired due to shrinkage in sizes and the filtration rate (referred to clinically as “ GFR”) has been on a downtrend. Kidneys, as we know, function as body filters and remove wastes from the blood. If they reach the stage where it can no longer serve as filters, the patient’s blood has to be cleansed by run-

ning it through a dialysis machine or in severe cases, add a third kidney from a donor in a procedure called kidney “transplant”. (it is not true that in a transplant, you remove the ailing kidneys and replace them with a new one. The doctors merely attach the third kidney from a donor.) ***** RESIGNATION ---- It came to a head when I decided that year to give up my Palace post to devote more time with Beth for her initial treatment. I forthwith resigned as Press Secretary

and we stayed at our Seagull Mountain Resort area for about 8 months when she underwent steroid treatment under the care of renowned renal expert of the Medical City group at Global City. A bit of digression. That reminds me, by the way, of the persistent rumor at that time that I was “ fired” by my boss, President Arroyo for my infamous “ Cabinet Prayer” and other gaffes along the way. Truth to tell, my leaving my cabinet post -- for whatever reason as others speculated -- did everyone a favor, including PGMA as I was feeling I was not up to the job after being Press Sec for 8 months due to Beth’s failing health. Yes, factor in my occasional irreverence and style that at times did not sit well with others. The overall enabling environment at that time TREATMENT | page 10

Gov’t corps, offices to change fees and charges By Apipa P. Bagumbaran CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, - Malacanañg has issued an order authorizing government agencies to change the rates of their existing fees and charges. Administrative Order (AO) 31 directs all heads of departments, bureaus, commission, agencies, offices and instrumentalities of the national government, including government-owned and/or controlled corporations when allowed by their Charters to rationalize the rates of their existing fees and charges. If found necessary, the new Order also authorizes the increase of such rates and the imposition of new fees and charges. "We have previous issuances that governed the imposition of fees and charges by government agencies," Cecilio Y. Clarete, chief economic development specialist of the National Economic Development Aut horit y (NEDA) in Northern Mindanao, said yesterday during the meeting of the Macro and Development Administration Committee of the Regional Development Council (RDC). He said in such issuances

the offices are allowed to revise their fees and charges but are mandated to seek clearance from the NEDA Board. Clarete said AO 31 does not anymore require government offices to seek clearance from the NEDA Board as long as they abide with the guiding principles to seek balance between cost recovery and the socio-economic impact of the new fees that will be imposed. Section 2 of the AO provides that a balance between recovering the costs of services and the socio-economic impact of their imposition shall be sought in the determination of rates and imposition of new fees and charges. Meantime, the Department of Finance, Department of Budget and Management, and the NEDA are mandated to jointly promulgate the rules and regulations to implement and monitor compliance with the AO. The rules and regulations will provide the parameters for determining just and reasonable rates, as well as safeguards to protect the public from unreasonable and arbitrary fees and charges.

P3.927B BEAM project launched in ARMM

By Perlita D. Changco

COTABATO CITY, Nov 21 (PIA) -- Education Secretary Armin Luistro, ARMM Governor Mujiv Hataman, and AusAid Director-General Rod Brazier signed yesterday the Memorandum of Subsidiary Arrangement (MSA) for the implementation of Basic Education Assistance for Mindanao in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BEAM-ARMM). With project cost of P3.927 billion, funding source of the five-year BEAM-ARMM include the Australian Aid (AusAid), United Nations Childrens’ Fund (UNICEF), GIZed, Fit for School, Cardno, and BRAC (Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee) for literacy programs and projects in the provinces of Basilan, Lanao del Sur, Maguindanao, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi and cities of Lamitan and Marawi. Said to be the biggest assistance extended to a single region, the funding sources come in the form of a grant aimed at improving better access to quality basic education to the disadvantage sectors and communities in the region and contribute to the alleviation of poverty and emergence of peace through targeted investments in education. The project’s components include Early Childhood Education and Basic Education, School Health, Water Sanita-

tion and Hygiene (WASH); Technical Vocational Training and Skills Development for Out-of-School Youth; and Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM). Brazier said the event marked a significant boost to the region’s education program as the key to enduring prosperity aligned with the reform agenda of President Aquino pushing for real partnership and shared responsibility. He said as the program is built on partnerships, better education will be achieved that will contribute to the peace initiatives citing the Framework Agreement that signaled the strong commitment of both parties. Luistro, on the other hand, said the partnership means so much to the Philippines not only to ARMM as it aims to close all gaps and cites AusAid as the most consistent donor with BEAM project as the best pilot-tested. Australian government’s continuous support and commitments made during President Aquino’s recent visit there attest long-existing friendship and partnership between the two countries, Luistro said. Meanwhile, Hataman while acknowledging the challenges, expressed gratitude for the involvement and participation of DepEd-AR MM in the planning and designing of the BEAM project in the autonomous region assuring strong commitment and action to improve access to

Little... from page 6

took both of you to cause the problem of offense or misunderstanding, it will probably take both of you to get out of it. Jesus Christ promises that if we’ll give Him total control of our heart and attitude, He will help us to start seeing and understanding ourselves honestly and responsibly, so we’ll know when and how to apologize in each situation. He’ll help you to forgive those people who wronged you, so you’ll finally be free from the heavy burden of blame. Just Think a Minute.

Treatment... from page 6

was full of challenges that my resignation was the best thing that could happen. My good friend Sec Cerge Remonde took over my vacated post but unfortunately he also gave up prematurely the post: he died of a heart attack while in office. The rest is history. ****** STEM CELL THERAPY ---Now back to stem cell treatment. There are different types of stem cell treatment. In the degenerative medicine division of the Medical City at Global City in Taguig, Metro Manila, I met Dr. Michele de Vera, facility chief last week. The facility was first established in 2006, relatively recent for such innovative and revolutionary mode of medical care. According to her, stem cell of a patient is harvested from his/her bone marrow and then subjected to clinical and laboratory procedures for about 2 weeks to allow replication or reproduction and also to orient or direct the stem cells, if infused, towards the ailing organs (like kidneys) needing “ repair”. The treatment cycle takes one infusion every month for a period of six(6) months. The “harvesting” from the bone marrow and the once -a-month infusion are “no frills” procedures and can be done on an “out patient” basis, depending on the patient’s choice. **** UMBILICAL CORD --Another mode is harvesting stem cells from the umbilical cord or placenta of a new born baby. The mother must deliver at the Medical City to facilitate the procedure. The harvested cells are preserved or deposited in a “cell bank” of the facility for future use of the donor child or by other persons needing it. The minimal annual “bank” charges is about P7500/ year. If other persons will avail of the “banked cells” , it is a “must” that some of the harvested cells must be retained for the child’s own use in the future. ***** FRESH CELL TREATMENT --- Another therapy is called FCT or “fresh cell treatment” because it uses freshly harvested stem cell

taken from the fetus (unborn) of a specially bred and raised sheep, tended within laboratory conditions and immediately infused into the patient by simple injections usually in the buttocks. VILLA MEDICA (VM) outside of Frankfurt, Germany is the more popular facility on FCT. The technology started as early as in 1931 according a VM info handout. ***** WE DECIDED TO GO --- Our decision to try the fresh stem cell therapy for her ailing kidneys took a significant turn when our lady doctor friend who is a kidney transplant surgeon in Metro Manila encouraged her to undergo the procedure. She was in Villa Medica last August, this year to accompany some patients. She went through the procedure herself. So we took efforts to verify first. We flew to Bangkok last September to meet up with the Villa Medica regional representative to get information. Villa Medica is the much-publicized center for fresh stem cell therapy. Then we submitted her clinical records which were forwarded to Germany for assessment. After a while, we got word she passed the basic initial scan and was informed that if she would decide to undergo the treatment, she had to finalize arrangements for a 3rd week November schedule. We decided to go. ***** V I L L A M E D I C A’ S TREATMENT --- The whole procedure at Villa Medica will take four ( 4) days of stay at its facilities which covers the complete package of the treatment, food and accommodation that a patient pays on a packaged rate, excluding travel expenses. The patient and the accompanying person, if any, shall shoulder their airline costs to Frankfurt, Germany. Upon arrival at the Frankfurt airport, Villa Medica will arrange airport transfer to its facility, about one and a half hours of land trip. Day One will consist of billeting, settling down and some pre-treatment tests. Day Two will be the injection or introduction of the fresh cells. Day Three will be a rest and observation day where meals are served in the room. Day Four will be a guided tour of nearby tourist spots and then transfer to Frankfurt for departure flights. We will be away for about 2 weeks including some much-needed rest stops along the way. ***** MY REPORTS ---I will document and write about the whole procedure for the information of the public which is now curious about this much-reported revolutionary and innovative treatment. As I earlier said, Beth and I decided that we will set aside the usual privacy protocols so we can share our experience for the

curious and the fascinated. apparent computer error Until my next report. again---at the Sta. Rita exit.

OROQUIETA City, Misamis Occidental––The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) is reminding all employers in Misamis Occidental of the guidelines in the granting of the 13th month pay of their employees. Labor Secretary Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz said all the rank-and-file employees in the private sector are entitled to 13th month pay on or before Dec. 24 of every year. Baldoz said these employees are entitled to such payment regardless of their position, designation or employment status, and irrespective of the method by which their wages are paid, provided that they have worked for at least one month during the calendar year. She said the 13th month pay will mean one-twelfth of the basic salary of an employee within a calendar year. On the other hand, she said the “basic salar y” include all remunerations or earnings paid by an employer to an employee for services rendered. nesses, regardless of size.

and organ failure. Fluids and blood transfusion are usually the only options in critical cases. The Aedes aegypti mosquito, found in tropical and sub-tropical regions, transmits the dengue virus to humans. The mosquito prefers to feed on humans and usually bites after dawn and before sunset. Health experts have warned that the Philippines and other countries could face more dengue flare-ups in the years ahead due to harsh climate change, which has heightened the risk of recurring floods that allow the Aedes aegypti mosquito to breed more easily. Dengue epidemics cause significant morbidity and mortality, social disruption and considerable economic burden in affected areas, both in terms of hospitalization and mosquito control, according to the WHO. Up to 40 percent of the world’s population, or around 2.5 billion people, are threatened by dengue fever, dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome, the WHO said.

But it does not include cost of living allowances, profit-sharing payments, cash equivalents of unused vacation and sick leave credits, overtime pay, premium pay, nightshift differential, holiday pay and all allowances and monetar y benefits which are not considered, or integrated, as part of a regular or basic salary of the employee. Pursuant to the provisions of Presidential DecreeNo. 851, and its implementing rules and regulations, the 13th month pay will be paid not later than December 24 of every year. But an employer may opt to give to her/his employees one-half of the 13th month pay before the opening of the regular school year in June and the remaining half on or before December 24 or every year. Meanwhile, Jose Robles, Director of DOLE-Misamis Occidental said the minimum 13th month pay required by law will not be less than one-twelfth of the total basic salary earned by an employee within a calendar year. He clarified, however, that the two months of maternity leave for the female employees are not included in the computation of the 13th month pay because such employees have no earnings from the company for the period. On the other hand, every covered employer are required to make a report of his compliance with the law to the nearest DOLE Regional Office not later than January 15 of each year. Such reports should include the name of establishment, address, principal product or business, total employment and total number of employees benefited. It also includes the amount granted per employee, total amount of benefits granted and name, position and telephone number of person giving the information, Robles added.

Sales said the TVET sector offers promising opportunities and interventions that can truly make a dent in the development of Northern Mindanao specifically for the government’s thrust in generating more jobs and more skilled workforce. Jordan Ian G. Apat, co-chair of the Social Development Committee of RDC, said the consultation was a laudable move in linking skills supply to the industry to be able to draw realistic data on the forecasted five-year skills need of the major industries in the region.
