Authorities arrested five Chinese nationals and 13 Filipino laborers during a raid last Saturday in an illegal gold mining site in the environmentally threatened Iponan River here.

Director Felizardo Gacad

Jr., head of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Mines and Geosciences Bureau 10, said they found a bottle of mercury among the tents used by the miners in Barangay Pigsag-an here.

Gacad said he had water samples taken along the Iponan River and vowed to check other possible mining sites to check if mercury have contaminated the waters.

“We need to revisit the site to see how rampant is the use of mercury in the illegal mining operations,” Gacad said.

Mercury is considered very

A joint team of DENR personnel, National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) agents and Army elite Special Forces raided the mining site in the hinterland village of Pigsag-an following a tip from a concerned citizen.

Lawyer Michael Pacuribot, chief of the DENR legal division, identified the Chinese as Mingzhi Meng, Shen

Chuangao, Pan Jiquan, Luo Jian Hui, and Yuan Yin Lin. NBI assistant regional director Norman Decampong said the Chinese nationals did not have passports and only showed copies of their Alien Certificates of Registration (ACR).

“All five Chinese nationals are from the mainland China and speaks only Mandarin,” Decampong said.

The NBI filed eight complaints against the Chinese nationals and Filipino laborers for violating sections

Senate to deliver a 'well-crafted, impactful' MIF law – Sen.Villar

MANILA – The ongoing series of interpellations at the Senate plenary discussing the Maharlika Investment Fund (MIF) bill shows the commitment of the Senate to ensure the measure will serve the best interest of the Filipino people, Senator Mark Villar assured on Wednesday.

Villar, who authored and sponsored Senate Bill No. (SBN) 2020 seeking to create the MIF, also assured that he stands firmly committed to the ideals and objectives of the MIF Bill that shall ensure it empowers the people, creates a fair and equitable society, and builds a prosperous future for all.

"Maganda po na madiscuss natin ang mga concerns ng ating mga kapwa senador (It is good that we can discuss the concerns of

our fellow senators). From the start, we always wanted to scrutinize this bill. No better way to accomplish that than by entertaining questions from our colleagues," Villar said in a statement.

“The ongoing process of interpellation highlights the Senate's commitment to deliver a well-crafted and impactful law. By engaging in open discussions and collaboration, we are emphasizing the importance of a thorough examination of the Maharlika Bill," he added.

Emphasizing the significance of scrutinizing the bill thoroughly, Villar said he believes that engaging in discussions and addressing concerns raised by fellow senators is a vital part of the legislative process. Meanwhile, the law -

maker allayed the fears of some critics (of) what happened to the Norway Wealth Fund could also happen to MIF.

The Norway Wealth Fund experienced an unforeseen situation in the first half of 2022 incurring high paper losses.

"But then again, when you analyze it over an extended period, let’s say over 10 years, the overall return for government surpasses that period of losses.“ Villar explained.

He also reiterated the Maharlika has enough safeguards to ensure that the government will achieve a good rate of return.

So far, among those who already interpellated with Villar were Senators Ronald Dela Rosa, Grace Poe, Raffy Tulfo, and Loren Legarda. (PNA)

Senate Committee on Trade, Commerce and Entrepreneurship Chairperson Senator Mark Villar answers queries from colleagues as he defends Senate Bill No. 2020 or the Maharlika Investment Fund (MIF) during the plenary session on Tuesday (May 16, 2023). Considered one of the priority bills of the Marcos administration, the MIF seeks to promote socio-economic development by making strategic and profitable investments in key sectors. Villar said MIF is a necessary instrument to spur economic development and allow the country to recover faster from the Covid-19 pandemic.

MANILA – Expressing his support for President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s commitment to continue and expand the “Build, Build, Build” Program of the Duterte administration, Senator Christopher Lawrence Go on Wednesday filed a measure seeking to establish a comprehensive framework to accelerate the implementation of the national government’s infrastructure flagship programs and projects. For a more diversified funding strategy and strategic utilization of PublicPrivate Partnership with the “Build Better More” program of the Marcos administration, Go said Senate Bill No. (SBN) 2114,

which emphasizes that the country’s economic progress depends on the national government’s ability to deliver infrastructure projects.

“Kung mas mabilis ang daloy ng mga tao, ng mga serbisyo at produkto, mas uunlad po ang ating ekonomiya (If people, services, and products can move swiftly, we will have a better

economy). Infra projects are also leading generators of jobs, lalo na dahil maraming mga kababayan natin ang nawalan ng trabaho at hanapbuhay noong pandemya (especially because a lot of our people lost their jobs and livelihood during the pandemic), he added.

Kim’s Dream

Liberate Humanity from Unbridled Materialism

Wake-Up Call to Debunk Fallacies of Life

“What would profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” (Mark 8 verse 34-38)

This biblical pronouncement by Jesus Himself should awaken humanity that is now in deep slumber as spiritual consciousness has been replaced by materialism and consumerism. Even religions have succumbed to this wrong mindset in a world that is now suffering from collective insanity.

An Oxfam Study has concluded “that humanity has been buried in unbridled consumerism and materialism as there is so much veneration to the profit motive that has already captured the mindset of all governments, all institutions, all universities and all religions while there is so much denigration of spirituality.”

This is because the contemporaneous development paradigm called neo-liberal capitalism also known as corporate globalization has been anchored on the “money-must-grow principle,” and “growth-at-all-cost development strategy,” that has sacrificed the people and the environment to the altar of greed and profit under the regime of one percent as the wealth of one percent is greater than the combined assets of the ninety-nine percent of the world’s population. In fact, the combined wealth of eight richest families in the world equal the combined assets of 3.6 billion people.

The regime of one percent has put humanity in the state of planetary emergency not just because of the threat of climate change but of the threats of a nuclear war as what is happening now in Ukraine and in Sudan. War has been used for so much money making by these

global corporations and would kill anyone like what they did to the late US President John F. Kennedy when he dared to stop in the Sixties the Vietnam war. No way will a powerful corporation allow Kenney to stop the Vietnam war as it was gaining some 500 billion dollars a year out of that war. That corporation connived with the FBI and the CIA to kill Kennedy. Now it is established that it was not Lee Harvey Osward who assassinated Kennedy based on the US Congress investigation.

This time, no way will these corporations stop Climate Change through the continuing use of coal and fossil fuel as some 19 corporations are raking some 15 trillion dollars a year or 10 million dollar every minute through the intensive use of highly carbon emitting coal and fossil fuel – money that these corporations are sharing with powerful politicians like former US President Donald Trump who is a Climate Denier, to the mainstream media and to religious fundamentalists. The regime of one percent has not only led to the death of democracy but to the democracy of death in connivance with religious groups who have failed to do their biblical mandate that is why the Satanic Egoic mindset is winning that has created deep inequities globally.

Such gross inequities have been justified by the rich and powerful as the offshoot of the principle of the “survival-ofthe-fittest.” They are stronger, more powerful, more aggressive -thus, they have more, more,

The peace Christ gives us

It’s important that we understand the kind of peace that Christ gives us. As he said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.” (Jn 14,27) Very heartwarming words of Christ, but we have to know exactly what that peace is all about.

Yes, we have to understand that Christ gives us a specific kind of peace, one that definitely goes beyond the worldly definition and standards of peace. It’s a peace that is not simply the absence of wars, troubles, worries, etc. In fact, it is one that can only be achieved through constant struggles. As one saint would put it, it is a peace that is a result of war!

This is a peace that can only be achieved and felt when we try our best to keep a good relation with Christ. That is to say, that we develop a healthy interior or spiritual life that links us with Christ. With him, we can manage to have peace however the situation of our life and the world in general turns. It’s an all-weather kind of peace, a realistic one that can be enjoyed both in good times and bad times.

This is a peace that is not

more wealth, more money, more power. But the survival-of-thefittest principle works only in a jungle-like existence where a stronger lion eats a cornered prey but not in a civilized society. Let notice be served to one and all that each one of us will be judged not on wealth, fame or power but on how we have served the “least of our brethren.” Development that is based on individual pursuit for self- aggrandizement and wealth, where money is used not to enhance life and the well-being of the people but to make more money is not anymore economically viable and ecologically sustainable. That kind of development (which is really mal-development) makes a few elites have much too much and the many who are poor much too little.

In this country, you call that block capitalism where cartels and the oligarchs run the country, owned by only 50 families. To perpetuate their economic control, they must have a hold to political power including that of the media and continuing financial support to the churches. Look at Mindanao, so rich yet so poor where 70% of the land (the choicest) is under the control of big agri-business corporations (based on a study by the Development Academy of the Philippines). Where are the

simply based on natural and human conditions. It is one that comes from God, that channels the peace of God himself who can transcend and resolve whatever twists and turns our life here on earth goes through. It’s a peace that comes as a result of God’s wisdom and omnipotence.

It’s important that we earnestly make the effort the identify ourselves more and more with God’s will and ways, since only then can we enjoy the true peace meant for us. God’s will and ways have been revealed to us through Christ and are now shared with us through the Holy Spirit working through the different instrumentalities of the Church.

Definitely this peace that comes from God will lead us to become more spiritual and supernatural in our ways, without of course compromising what is human and natural in us. But certainly, there will always be the need for disciplining our natural and carnal selves so we can enter into the spiritual and supernatural dimension of our life with God.

Thus, there is a need to outgrow our carnal selves, a process that will involve constant struggle. We all need

to overcome our carnality and sensuality to allow reason and eventually our faith to take root, dominate, guide, and lead us. That’s because we are meant to be spiritual men, not carnal men. Reason, will, faith, hope and charity --all these make up the spiritual character of our life.

We have to be careful with the many ideological definitions and descriptions of man that can contain certain elements of truth but still miss the core point. Man is not just a social, economic or political being. He is a lot more than these.

Much less is he a purely material being, completely imprisoned in time, space and worldliness, and detached from God, the eternal, supernatural, perfect being, who created him to be God’s image and likeness, as what some worldly ideologies teach.

When we manage to live our life with God through Christ in the Holy Spirit, then we can be sure of having that invincible peace Christ promised to give us

Ayala unit keen to bid for UP-PGH Cancer Center

CITY OF SAN

JOSE

DEL MONTE, Bulacan – AC Health, Ayala Corp.’s health care unit, is interested to participate in the Marcos administration’s first public-private partnership (PPP) project, the PHP6 billion University of the Philippines’ Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH) Cancer Center.

AC Health president and chief executive officer Paolo Borromeo told reporters Tuesday evening that part of the company’s expansion is to participate in the government’s PPP projects in the health care sector.

“We’re also keen to explore the public-private partnership proposal that they are releasing for the (PGH) cancer hospital.

I think that’s a PHP6.5 billion project, the first of this administration’s PPP projects, and we are looking to participating in that project,” Borromeo said on the

sidelines of its hospital rebranding in this city.

In February, the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Board, chaired by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., approved

the construction of the 300-bed UP-PGH Cancer Center.

Half of the bed capacity will be dedicated to underprivileged Filipinos, providing them with advanced, integrated,

and affordable oncology care services.

AC Health and PGH are already partners as the former’s ambulatory surgery center, QualiMed Manila, is located at the UP-PGH Faculty Medical

Arts Building (FMAB), where PGH doctors can do their private practice in QualiMed’s facility.

Rebranding

AC Health is now putting its hospitals and clinics under one roof, the Healthway Medical Network (HMN).

Part of this initiative is rebranding its QualiMed brand hospitals as Healthway.

The QualiMed Hospital in this city is the second facility that was rebranded to Healthway QualiMed Hospital San Jose Del Monte. The first was QualiMed Hospital in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

HMN currently has five hospitals, 17 multispecialty clinics, and more than 200 corporate clinics.

Expansion Borromeo said AC Health aims to increase its footprint across the country through “greenfield and brownfield” projects.

However, he declined to disclose the number of hospitals and clinics it would build and acquire in the coming years.

For this year, Borromeo said, AC Health would open Healthway Cancer Care Hospital in Taguig City in September.

It will also open three new clinics in Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, and Davao, as well as two tourist wellness centers in El Nido and Boracay.

Ayala Corp. chairman Jaime Augusto Zobel de Ayala said the company is steadfast in delivering excellent “care beyond cure” through its AC Health’s facilities and professionals.

“Let’s continue to work together, pushing the boundaries of health care to ensure the wellbeing of every Filipino and contribute to the prosperity, health, and progress of our nation,” he added. (PNA)

DGE Go appoints Leo Lizada as AG for RI District 3870 for RY 2023-2024

BY JOEL CALAMBA ESCOL, Managing Editor

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – Rotary International District 3870 Governor-elect Gilda “Gigi” Go has chosen another Rotary officer for RY 2023-2024.

“AG G. Leo Lizada once served the Rotary Club of Cotabato City South as President, so he’s been addressed as PP Leo for quite some time now. Starting July 1 this year, PP Leo will be called AG Leo as he will be taking on a new role as District 3870’s ASSISTANT GOVERNOR,” said DGE Go.

AG LEO is a practising lawyer at Fontanilla, Lizada Law Office. He is also a Faculty in the College of Law of Notre Dame University, Cotabato City.

“Thank you very much AG Leo for accepting your appointment. Welcome to District 3870’s Leadership Team,” added DGE Go.

Duties of AG

Rotary International is a global service organization that brings together business and community leaders to provide humanitarian services, encourage high ethical

standards in all vocations, and advance goodwill and peace around the world. The Assistant Governor is a key leadership role in Rotary clubs, responsible for supporting and mentoring club presidents and their boards to ensure they are meeting their goals and objectives.

The Assistant Governor (AG) acts as a liaison between the district governor and the clubs in their

assigned area. They visit each club regularly to provide guidance, support, and feedback. AGs help clubs develop and implement their strategic plans and work to ensure that the Rotary International goals are being met. They also assist clubs in identifying potential members and encourage the growth of the organization.

In addition to providing guidance to club lead-

ers, AGs play a key role in organizing and promoting Rotary events and initiatives. They work closely with district committees to plan and execute district-wide projects, such as fundraising events, service projects, and leadership training sessions. AGs also work with club leaders to ensure that members are aware of and participate in Rotary’s various programs

and opportunities.

Utility firm to bring in e-buses to Iloilo City

By Perla Lena

ILOILO CITY – More Electric and Power Corporation (MORE Power), the power distribution utility operating in this city, is bringing in at least 10 air-conditioned electric buses (e-buses) to ply routes in the metro this year.

MORE Power president Roel Castro, in an interview on Tuesday, said introducing the environment-friendly mode of transportation is part of their firm’s sustainable objective in support of the local government’s thrust of becoming a sustainable city with sustainable initiatives.

“Since we are in the electric distribution business, we thought of bringing this in,” he said.

MORE Power has teamed up with supplier Global Elec-

ECO-FRIENDLY BUS. More Electric and Power Corporation (MORE Power) is bringing in at least 10 air-conditioned electric buses (e-buses) to ply routes in Iloilo City this year. A test run has been conducted last week to showcase the alternative mode of transportation. (Photo courtesy of MORE Power)

tric Transport (GET) Philippines for the provision of an alternative mode of transportation.

Castro said they will negotiate with the transport cooperative for the adoption of eco-friendly buses in their fleet and business process outsourcing firms in the city for the shuttle buses of their employees.

He said the e-bus causes no harm to the environment because it does not emit smoke nor create noise pollution.

“Eventually, we want this promoted and that the transport coops will really get into this. This is part of our corporate social responsibility to really introduce a very important sustainable initiative here in the city,” he added.

The e-bus can accommodate 20 passengers. When fully

charged, it could go as far as 100 kilometers.

A slow-charging unit can take around eight hours to get fully charged. Stations will be established in strategic areas in the city to cater to their charging needs.

A similar mode of transport is now in major provinces and cities in the country, including Taguig City, Davao, Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, Pampanga and Batangas.

A test run for a single unit was conducted last week where Mayor Jerry P. Treñas was among its first passengers. “Thrilled to ride the ecofriendly e-bus of MORE Power. Let’s all do our part in reducing our carbon footprint and switch to sustainable transportation options,” the mayor posted on his Facebook account. (PNA)

DICT warns liability of ‘registered SIM cards' online sellers

By John Rey Saavedra

CEBU CITY – The Department of Communications and Information Technology (DICT) in Central Visayas on Tuesday warned online sellers peddling “alreadyregistered” subscriber identity module (SIM) cards using the Facebook social media platform of their future liability.

Frederick Amores, regional director of DICT, said their office in Cebu received reports about individuals who are selling SIM cards in the “Marketplace”, a sub-group in Facebook selling various commodities.

“Actually, we heard reports that there are people who opted to buy already registered SIM

cards. In fact, I have heard stories that it has become an underground business,” Amores told reporters at the sideline of the Fiestartup 2023 press conference here. He said peddlers who registered the SIM under their name should have realized that they become accountable as its owner.

Registered owners

of SIM cards used in illicit transactions and activities would always face the danger of being held liable, he said. He encouraged subscribers to buy their SIM cards in legitimate stores whose sales staff could provide assistance with the registration under the buyer’s name. Meanwhile, Amores said he has observed

more subscribers registering their prepaid SIM cards, after the DICT announced on April 27 that President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. has approved a 90-day extension.

“We are hoping that we will have a more substantial number of SIM registered by the time the extension ends. I think this is going to be the last extension. This may

no longer be extended further,” he said, as he urged subscribers to not wait for the lapse of the extension before registering their SIM cards. Republic Act No. 11934, the SIM Registration Act and commonly referred to as the SIM Card law, mandates the registration of all SIM cards before activation. (PNA)

CDO launches LGBTQ+ federation, mental health task force

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY

– The city government established on Tuesday the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queerplus (LGBTQ+) Federation and Mental Health Task Force.

In a statement, Mayor Rolando Uy signed an executive order (EO) forming the LGBTQ+ Federation "to assist in promoting equality and diversity in the city."

With the creation of the federation, Uy said there would be programs formulated for the LGBTQ+ community that would encourage them to become productive members of

society who could contribute to progress.

"I have been supporting the LGBTQ+ sector since I was still a congressman in the 17th Congress, as I was one of the main authors of House Bill 4982 (in 2017)," he said.

The proposed measure referred to as the Sexual Orientation Or Gender Identity Or Expression Bill seeks to penalize any form of discrimination based on one's gender identity.

With the new EO, Uy also seeks to encourage the city council to pass an antidiscrimination ordinance.

Meanwhile, Uy also

launched the Task Force on Mental Health as an answer to the growing concerns of mental health issues, particularly depression, among the youth in the city.

The task force, which will be chaired by City Administrator Hilario Roy Raagas and co-chaired by gender and development focal person Sheila Lumbatan, is expected to draft measures that would improve the city officials' capability in handling mental health issues.

The task force is also tasked to develop programs on suicide prevention, including its treatment and response mechanism. (PNA)

By Teofilo Garcia, Jr.

ZAMBOANGA CITY –

The city government is establishing its own 911 emergency hotline number to respond to emergency calls here.

Dr. Elmeir Jade Apolinario, the City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (CDRRMO) chief, said Tuesday the creation of the local call station (LCS)-911 has the approval of the Department of the Interior and Local Government that man -

ages the 911 nationwide emergency hotline.

Apolinario said they aim to operationalize the LCS-911 next month once the funding allocation for its operation is approved.

The LCS-911, the equipment of which are already in place, will be manned by trained personnel from his office.

Personnel from the Zamboanga City Police Office, Task Force Zamboanga, and Bureau of Fire Protection will also be assigned to the LCS-911

operation center, Apolinario said.

“Mayor John Dalipe has issued an order designating one of my staff, Clint Senoza, the head of the operations division, to handle the operation of the local call station,” he said. At present, all 911 emergencies and calls for assistance are rerouted either through Davao, Cebu, or Manila.

Once operational, the LCS-911 in this city will be the first of its kind in the region. (PNA)

farmers, the so-called backbone of the nation? They are tilling lands not their own, of if they do, they are tied-up to mode of production and marketing that they have no control. They are in marginalized areas, in slopes where their carabaos will rollover downhill even with a little push. Our country has also become a dumping ground of finished products and source of cheap raw materials which are processed abroad then sold back to us at a high price. What a tragedy knowing that a country that is consuming what it is not producing will always be poor.

The highly iniquitous development paradigm can be likened to the workings of an auto-immune disease syndrome (AIDS), there

no less than the body’s defense mechanisms are attacking vital organs. In the absence of a major change, the global system will collapse in less than one hundred years. The unimaginable is becoming imaginable: the end of life on earth. Why is this so?

Glaring is unsustainability in ecology manifested by climate change, melting of the iceberg (one thousand hectares of the 386-meter high iceberg in the Arctic and Antarctic melting every day), It is scientifically established that for every one degree Celsius increase in global temperature, there will be a corresponding ten percent reduction in food production. As climate change intensifies, insects’ bites will become fatal and can reach up to higher altitude. It is predicted that there will be at least one billion global refugees in the

In the Philippines, 15 years from now, there will be some 35 million homeless Filipinos as it is scientifically established that in the next 15 years, the sea level will increase by 16 meters high (the height of 3-storey building) and the 7,100 islands will just be reduced to 300 islands.

The second bitter reality is the unsustainability in the economy as only a few elites are in control of the resources. Who decides? Who controls? Who benefits? These oligarchs are using “trickle-down” approach to the masses as an alibi. No Sir! No such thing. In so-called trickle-down approach, we just allow all those which have already passed the digestive system of cattle to be eaten by the poor. Money should not be used to make more money but to

No less than a national leader of Myanmar by the name of Aung San Suu Kye, leader of the national league for democracy who had been imprisoned as a freedom fighter, had stressed the truism in her speech that “human development must now be the focus and not consumerism and materialism.”

Yes, HIGIT SA LAHAT, TAO.

Let us now be awakened to liberate humanity, especially the Filipino people from the quagmire of so much unbridled materialism and consumerism and to bring back spirituality amidst morale collapse and religious apathy.

The team raided the mining site at 4 a.m. on Saturday, catching the Chinese nationals and the laborers by surprise, according to Army Special Forces Captain Nerbon Estolloso.

He said his team of soldiers entered silently and caught the suspects feverishly working on the high-pressure jets of water to dislodge rock material from Iponan River.
