Hinuklog: Lenten tradition lives on in Medina town By Froilan Gallardo of MindaNews

MEDINA, Misamis Oriental--Every Holy Week, everyone in this town from public officials, workers, professionals to student, don their costumes and become actors in the reenactment of the traditional Lenten presentation, “Hinuklog” (Reflection or Pagnilaynilay). Even Energy Undersecretary Benito Ranque comes home and dons his costume as a market vendor. “Eight years. I have been doing this for eight years. I always come back here every Holy week,” Ranque, one of the reenactors, said. Since the 1970s, when student trainers came to Me-

dina and recruited residents into this theater production, the town has played host to this Lenten Passion play. Although there were years when there were no presentations, the town has ensured the tradition lives on. Since 2012, Hinuklog has been performed every Holy Week. The play starts on Holy Thursday night when the actors play Jesus Christ and the 12 apostles go to the garden of Gethsemane and one of them, Judas, would betray Him. This scene is played out on the plaza fronting the Medina municipal building. On Good Friday morning, the thunderous hooves of Roman cavalry men are

heard on the main street of Medina as reenactors play the trial of Jesus Christ before Herod and Pontius Pilate at the town market and covered court. The crucifixion of Jesus Christ is played on a huge empty lot in front of the town’s gym. ”Practice starts two months before the Holy Week. After work and dinner, we go to the gym where we practice every night,” Larry Marte, a municipal worker said. Marte plays the role of the Roman soldier who puts the crown of thorns on the head of Jesus Christ. He is among the original actors of the cast. Efifanio Dorimon, See lives, page 7

Tourist visitors in Misor drop during the Holy Week By CRIS DIAZ, Executive Editor

CAGAYAN de Oro City-Tourists and devotees visiting various pilgrimage sites in Misamis Oriental has considerably reduced during the observance of the Holy Week this year, Francis Dy, Jr. head of the provincial disaster office said Monday. Dy said that the reduction of visit by tourists and devotees were observed in Sipaka Island and t he Div ine Merc y Statue, two most popular pilgrimage sites in Misamis Oriental during the Holy Week. The Sipaka Island is located in Talisayan, a coastal town east of Misamis Oriental while the “Divine Mercy Statue” is located in El Salvador, a component city west of Mi s am i s O r i e nt a l, D y said. He said that every year, Roman Catholic devotees visit the Sipaka Island and the Divine Mercy by the thousands during the observance of the Holy

Week. “This year, only about 16,000 devotees visited the Sipaka Island when the visitors would normally it the 30,000 figures in the past. The same was true on the number of visitors in the Divine Mercy, which has also dropped considerably,” Dy said. Dy expressed the suspicion that the attack of armed terrorists in the B ohol, a major tourist destination in Central Visayas could have affected the number of tourists and devotees visiting the Sip a k a Isl and and t he Divine Mercy in Misamis Oriental this year. Dy, however, said that t he c el ebr at i on of t he Holy Week in the province was generally peacef u l a lt houg h t he lo c a l law enforcers were on heightened alert for fear of the spill over of fighting in Bohol, about 200 miles north of Misamis Oriental.

Two explosions injured 7

Republic of the Philippines 10th Judicial Region MUNICIPAL CIRCUIT TRIAL COURT OF BALINGOAN-TALISAYAN Talisayan, Misamis Oriental -oOo-

By Ferdinandh B. Cabrera of MindaNews

TACURONG City––Seven people, mostly policemen and soldiers, were wounded in two separate explosions in a gasoline station here along the national highway Monday evening. Senior Supt. Raul Supiter, Sultan Kudarat provincial police chief, said two suspects were arrested by responding authorities but could not provide details yet as to their identities and their groups. Supiter said the first explosion took place 6:40 p.m. at the rooftop of the Dragon Gas Station in Ba-

rangay Isabela. This was followed by another explosion 30 minutes later in the gasoline station compound as police and Army bomb experts were arriving. Supiter said the gasoline station has been cordoned off as investigators are scouring the area for possible pieces of evidence. The wounded were identified as S/Sgt. Ipil Presaldo, S/Sgt Menzo Salsalito Manoy, SPO2 Jasper Garcia, PO1 Martin San Pedro, and PO1 Eleazar Sustiguer, apparently explosive ordnance

personnel; and civilians Bobong Bamo and a certain Michael Pon. Earlier today, there were text messages and Facebook posts circulating that mentioned possible terror attacks by the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) in Tacurong, Koronadal City in South Cotabato and Kidapawan City in North Cotabato. Police are now conducting tactical interrogation and followup investigation on the captured suspects. (Ferdinandh Cabrera / MindaNews)

Voter registration useful despite possible brgy, SK polls postponement, says Comelec

THE Commission on Elections (Comelec) on Monday said that the registration of those who qualified as voters for the October 2017 Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) polls will not be put to waste even if the measure will be postponed anew. According to Comelec Spokesperson James Jimenez, once the application for registration of a qualified voter has been approved, he/she will be able to vote in the suc-

ceeding polls, as the voter registration nationwide being conducted at present is not only for the scheduled village and youth polls. “New voter registrants’ efforts will not go to waste even if the October 23, 2017 elections is postponed because once they register as a voter, they will be able to vote in succeeding regular and special elections wherein they are qualified,” he said in a statement. President Rodrigo Duterte earlier said that

he is amenable to postpone anew the October 23 Barangay and SK elections. Surigao del Norte Rep. Robert Ace Barbers filed House Bill 5359 seeking to postpone the village and youth elections to May 2020 while allowing the President to appoint officials. On the other hand, the poll body office has reminded the public that there will be no extension for the voter registration procedure which will end See polls, page 7

EDITORIAL

The issue of peace in Mindanao FORMER British prime minister Neville Chamberlain said, “In war, whichever side may call itself the victor, there are no winners, but all are losers.” To me, this statement is a gospel truth when we talk about wars and conflicts. It is a fact that human existence, or human history, has been replete with wars and conflicts. In the Bible, we can read stories about wars and conflicts. In History books, we can likewise read stories about war and conflicts. Which lead me to believe that as long as man is man, there will always be wars and conflicts. And this world can never be perfect. There are small wars and conflicts as there are also big wars and conflicts. And no matter how small or big it is, it is always disturbing. Along the way, there is always collateral damage—innocent people, including children, die as a

country? As Reuben R. Canoy puts it, “There is no quick and easy way to end this tragic state of affairs…. It would be presumptuous for anyone to reduce the Mindanao or Moro Problem to a simple proposition or formula. As has been pointed out time and again, the Southern conflict is an awesome and explosive mix of historical, sociological, cultural, political and economic factors.” For his part, Prof. Julkipli Wadi, dean of the UP Institute of Islamic Studies, said the Mindanao conflict is a combination of the major variables of ethnicity, religion, colonialism, ancestral domain and struggle for self-determination. He said, however, that there is a dimension of looking at the Mindanao conflict as a peace direction. And it is by looking at the conflict as an element in understanding one’s jour-

ney of life in dialogue. To finding a lasting solution to the Mindanao peace problem, we will leave it to our national leaders. And it is good enough to know that there are quite a number of movements, nongovernment organizations and civil society groups that look at the Mindanao conflict as a search for peace dimension, leading the people to introspection, reflection and self-discovery. Whatever, their initiatives are always aimed at achieving social harmony in the south. In the meantime, as writers we will do our role in building peace. ***** Email me at rgmoldez@ gmail.com

result thereof. These flaring conflicts and wars also create harrowing economic hardships, dire refugee problems, and sustain a sense of despair. There are wars and conflicts in almost every corner of the world. But I will focus myself in Mindanao—the island of my birth and the island where I am presently living with my family. Every now and then, we hear news of bombs exploding, exchange of gunfire between the military and rebel groups, ambush, massacres, kidnappings and other crimes happening in various parts of Mindanao. These events lead many people to think that the entire island of Mindanao is in war. But that is not true. In some areas of the island, many people are living in peace. But nonetheless the headlines say it all. When will this end? Why peace remains so elusive in this part of the

The uncertainty of what was to happen to them while they were in Saudi Arabia, and the legal complications brought about by their expired visas and other immigration problems, were much too much to bear for the OFWs, and for their families as well. It was therefore heaven-sent for all of them that Duterte managed to convince Saudi officials to allow them to finally go home. There is a dearth of information about how Duterte did it, but I would like to venture an informed guess: perhaps, Duterte simply asked for it from King Salman Bin Abdulaziz, urging compassion for the long-suffering OFWs. King Salman, on the other hand,

perhaps wasn’t able to say “no”, since Duterte had not asked anything for himself, but was concerned only about his countrymen. -oooALL IS WELL THAT ENDS WELL? MORE PROBLEMS COMING: All is well that ends well? Maybe, but as news reports indicate, there are more OFWs in the Middle East and in many other parts of the world who have been ousted from their works, or who have been made to undergo great abuses from their employers, that needed to be flown back to their families in the Philippines. These OFWS have tasted already much grief, too, and they have to be attended to likewise by President

Atty. Batas Mauricio

Duterte. But this is going to require not just more legwork, more maneuvers and therefore more time to be executed satisfactorily, but also more prayers and spiritual strengthening on the part of the OFWs themselves and their families. I am saying this because I am aware that suffering and tribulation have been prophesied to happen for our OFWs---whether in the Middle East, or in other parts of the world. The prophecies are quite clear, and, to someone like me who adheres to what is written in the Bible See curse, page 7

The squabble over rice importation

By Jun Ledesma, PNA

THERE seems to be no end to the squabble over whether or not we should import rice and who will be given the authority to do so. Importation of rice has always been a source of graft and corruption in the country and those who were in the helm of the National Food Authority have become filthy rich they got themselves elected to office or earn ambassadorial post. Get my drift? President Rodrigo R. Duterte has given a short piece of advice: if it is necessary to import rice never do it during harvest season. But it is obviously unheeded as proven by the recent issu-

Commentary ance of an import permit to some lucky bastards while the ship loaded with rice was already off the shore of Vietnam. Some quarters, who are oblivious to the plight of rice farmers, belittle the directive of the President. They offer a simplistic solution and suggest that if rice farmers cannot compete with the price of imports then they might as well switch to other cash crops. In fact, many did. In Davao not a few switched to planting Cavendish bananas but only those whose farms are rain-fed do. Irrigated lands in Cotabato and elsewhere

in Mindanao stuck to planting rice. The problem here is that we are so pregnant with the issue of whether or not we should import rice. Nobody seems to worry about how and what to do for our farmers to improve on their productivity and later find solution on the delicate balance of at what price should we buy palay from the farmers gate and at what price should rice be sold to the consumer’s market. Can government, for a minute, look at how it can help farmers produce more and maybe increase price

subsidy or provide storage infrastructures so that they will be encouraged to produce and earn more? During the “golden era” of the Marcos presidency, the Philippines was gross rice exporter. Not a few Marcos haters will crucify me for saying these but these are unwritten facts which cannot be deleted. Not by revisionist historians. For how can one deny the fact that 90% of the irrigation systems operating today were projects of the Marcos regime? Masagana 99 (for rice farmers) and Masaganang Maisan are programs which comprehend of a special Philippine National Bank loan See rice, page 7

There are six things the Lord hates, seven that all detestable to Him: Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hand that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pour out lies, and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers,” (Proverbs 6:15-19). These characterize the people who stir dissension and devilish schemes against Iligan City Mayor Celso G. Regencia; a public servant whose name is already dented. This happened to Mayor Regencia. He was elected as city mayor in 2013 election wherein only Atty. Emmanuel Salibay was elected as City Councilor under his political bandwagon. But, Salibay had appallingly affiliated to the City Vice-Mayor Ruderic Marzo -- from the opposing political party of Mayor Regencia, in anticipation perhaps that the grabbing of power will be permanent and that Mayor Regencia will rot in jail. At that instant, the City Mayor had no more councilor to protect him or rather to stabilize from the onslaught of his political adversaries against the devilish acts in the City Council. When he took over the city mayor ship, as his promised to the Iliganons to nip in the bud the corruption in high and low places in the City Government of Iligan, especially about the alleged ghost casual employees in the Sangguniang Panlungsod (SP) and in the Office of the City Vice-Mayor, he issued a Memorandum that he will be the one to sign the Job Order Request of casual employees in the SP and that of the Office of the City Vice-Mayor not subject to the Civil Service Law, Rules and Regulations thus minimize if not eliminate the so called ghost casual employees. The subject Memorandum is clothed with legal propriety based on the provisions of R.A. 7160, as follows: Under Section 456 (a)(2) of R.A. 7160, one of the duties of the city vice mayor, subject to the Civil Service Law, Rules and Regulations, appoint all officials and employees of the SP, except those whose manner of appointment is specifically provided in this Code.

While under Section 77. Responsibility for Human Resources and Development – The Chief Executive of every local government unit shall be responsible for human resources and development in his unit and shall take all personnel actions in accordance with the Constitutional provisions on the Civil Service Commission (CSC) may establish: Provided, the Local Chief Executive (LCE) may employ emergency or casual employees or laborers paid on a daily wage or piecework basis and hired through job orders for local projects authorized by the Sanggunian concerned without need of the approval or attestation by the CSC. Provided, further, that the period of employment of emergency or casual laborers as provided in this Section shall not exceed six months. The subject section pertains to employments where there is no employeremployee relationship which is under Commission on Audit (COA) Laws, Rules and Regulations. Thus, the City Vice Mayor may appoint casual and or contractual employees for his office and the SP whose appointment is covered by the CSC Rules, Law and Regulations, but he cannot employ emergency or casual employees or laborers hired through job orders and/or contract of services whose manner of employment is governed by the COA Rules, Law and Regulations, where there is no employer-employee relationship because that is reserve to the LCE. Subject Suspension Order Resolution by the then Secretary Ochoa was referred to the Office of the Regional Director, Region X, COA for Legal Opinion. The opinion of the COA, Regional Office No. X is hereunder stated: “It is the NOTICE NOTICE is hereby given that the intestate estate of spouses VICENTE M. LAGDAMEN SR. and LEONARDA S. LAGDAMEN, who died on November 30, 2002 at Butuan Doctors’ Hospital, Inc., Estacio Village, Butuan City, and September 02, 2013 at EROMMGH, San Jose St., Butuan City, respectively, consisting of a residential lot (Lot No. 69, Csd-10-004892) situated at Diego Silang, Butuan City, under Tax Declaration No. 08-0100002-00439, Property Identification No. 162-01-0002-005-22 covered by Katibayan ng Orihinal na Titulo Blg. P-6842, containing an area of 228 square meters, is the subject of an EXTRAJUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF ESTATE OF THE LATE SPOUSES VICENTE M. LAGDAMEN SR. & LEONARDA S. LAGDAMEN made and entered into by Nimfa Bracamonte, Rosemary L. Ciencia, Vicente S. Lagdamen, Jr., and Susan L. Ato, adjudicating unto themselves above-mentioned land together with all improvements thereon, per Doc. No. 328; Book No. CCLXXX; Page No. 33; Series of 2017 of the Notarial Registry of Atty. Richard L. Lamigo, Notary Public at Butuan City, Philippines. MDN: Apr 12, 19 & 26, 2017

considered view of this office that the authority of the Vice Mayor to appoint officials and employees as provided for under Section 456 (a) (2) of R.A. No. 7160 pertains to those appointments that are within the coverage of the CSC, and such may in particular extend further to employment of casuals/job orders where there is employee-employer relationship, hence the appointees will be paid both salaries and other benefits charged against appropriations for personal services either in the Office of the City Vice Mayor or SP and the appointees are assigned in the mentioned office. The authority will not extend to employment of casuals and job orders without employer-employee relationship whose compensation will be charged to non-personnel services, referred to under Section 77 because this is within the ambit of the authority of the LCE.” His Suspension Order for six months was devoid of merit and substance, only a political harassment, a glaring act of power grabbing. Then, after Mayor Regencia completed the six months period, he reported back to his office

Cultural education diploma grads dared to bolster Filipino culture, national imagination

Xavier University-Ateneo de Cagayan challenged the inaugural batch of graduates of the Graduate Diploma in Cultural Education (GDCE) in Northern Mindanao to boost the promotion of Filipino culture and the arts and our national imagination through teaching and research. “Gathering cultural workers and cultural scholars is not easy,” said Hobart Savior, director of Xavier Center for Culture and the Arts (XCCA), the host institution of GDCE in Cagayan de Oro City.

This is our biggest responsibility,” Savior told the graduates during their graduation in March.

Designed as an in-service residential program, the scholarships covered a total of 432 hours of intensive training during the summers of 2015 and 2016 designed to integrate a functional understanding of the local and national history, culture, heritage, and the arts. “We hope that you will be able to bring in the voices of your locality and that you will be able to tell a lot of stories and map a lot of cultural experiences and icons,” said Savior.

The students of GDCE underwent modular lectures, excursions, field studies, and artistic performances and exposures over the course of the program. At the end, they came up with culture-based lessons and mechanisms and were expected to apply these to their respective schools. Since the summer of 2008, the NCCA-PCEP, through several conduitHEIs nationwide, has been offering a credit-earning post-baccalaureate teacher enhancement program called Certificate Program on Cultural Education (CPCE), which is now formally known as the Graduate Diploma in Cultural Education.

commissioner of the Subcommission on Cultural Dissemination of the National Commission on Culture and the Arts (NCCA) declared the inaugural 29 scholars as GDCE graduates of Xavier Ateneo. In his message, Magno thanked XU and the people behind the program for the successful run of GDCE which has formed teachers to be culturally-aware advocates, “who now know better how to impart not only the knowledge but also the responsibilities of promoting, protecting and handing down our culture, values, heritage, and traditions to the younger generation.” During their graduation at Casa Real of The VIP Hotel, it was officially announced that XU will soon offer Master of Arts in Education major in Cultural Education under the School of Education. GDCE graduates will only have to take 18 more units to be given the said master’s degree. On behalf of the dean of XU School of Education, Dr. Jovelyn Delosa, Dr. Edralin Manla of the XU’s IDEA Program, encouraged the GDCE graduates to “continue to grow professionally for better opportunities.” “Why continue to grow

professionally? What would it give you? One, you have more knowledge to share with your students. There becomes more depth in your teaching because of the knowledge you have gained. I hope you continue to spread the love and appreciation of our culture, our local and national history, heritage, and the arts,” she said. For Manla, the promotion of our culture can be achieved through practice and research: “Welcome this as a challenge. We want to make a new breed of teachers with this new batch. Take the challenge with a heart. … Bring the Atenean spirit with you! Make a difference in the lives of your students. Love culture and the arts the way you teach your students.”

where these prophecies were laid down, I am certain that something can be done to address the problem. -oooSENDING OFWs ABROAD IS A CURSE FROM GOD: Let us read what the Bible said about OFWs, in a manner of speaking, of course. In Deuteronomy 28:15 and 32, it is there written: “If you no longer listen to God and no longer obey His commands, He will send you these curses… Your sons and daughters will be given to another nation, and you will wear out your eyes watching for them day after day, powerless to lift a hand.” Clearly, this was a prophecy that is being played out and is being fulfilled right now in the Philippines. Due to lack of sufficient employment opportunities, our sons and daughters are forced to seek work abroad, where they are most often abused, maimed, and even killed, even for no reason at all. Why has this fate befallen our countrymen? It is because as a whole nation, Filipinos no longer sincerely listen to, nor obey, God---which is the triggering mechanism for this misfortune or curse from Him. Consequently, if we want to stop this forced migration of our children towards other countries, or eliminate their sufferings while abroad, we must listen to, and obey, God more sincerely and truthfully. -oooWATCH “ANG TANGING DAAN”, “KAKAMPI MO ANG BATAS”, AT FB LIVE: Please watch “Ang Tanging Daan”, a roundthe-clock Bible Exposition and prayer session at www. facebook.com/angtangingdaan; and “Kakampi Mo Ang Batas”, a legal counseling and news commentary program at www.facebook. com/kakampimoangbatas.

window for farmers. Because farmers were either ignorant or were adamant to borrow money from PNB (then government-owned) Marcos ordered both PNB and the Department of Agriculture to roll out “banks of wheels” and municipal agriculturists to reach out to farmers and teach them the rudiments of availing bank loans and improving farm practices. Bank interest on Masagana programs were almost like grants. Rice trading during the Marcos era was controlled by Chinese traders then. During harvest they buy palay (unmilled grain) at the farmers’ gate at the price they dictated. They were so helpless they cannot complain against the Chinese traders except by calling

them “Intsik kwakang”. Because of lack of drying facilities, farmers were forced to sell their harvest for a picayune fearing the moisture content will turn their palay rancid. Realizing this predicament, Marcos created the National Grains Authority which was mandated to buy farmers produce at a much higher (subsidized price) than what the Chinese traders do. While NGA had a ceiling on the volume of palay it can buy, it somehow prodded the traders to equal if not improved on their buying price. What is it with NGA then that it was able to come to the aid of farmers. They have the drying facilities and rice mills. The farmers do not have these. If their farms are adjacent to cemented highways, then they can spread their newly harvested palay by the road side and pray it won’t rain. They do not have storage facilities. NGA has. What am I up to here? I hope Sec. Jun Evasco and Sec. Manny Pinol will not be slighted with my suggestion. Put NFA and the National Irrigation Administration back under the Department of Agriculture. The DA is the custodian of statistics of rice productivity and buffer stocks under NFA. NIA is an essential arm in rice productivity and therefore should not be alienated from DA. I think it was a rush decision made by President Duterte and seconded by Secretary Pinol when they declared that irrigation water should be provided free to farmers. They should just have cut the fees by half instead of just giving it free. Farmers worth their salt knew that money is needed to rehabilitate irrigation canals on a regular basis as these are silted in time and the embankment eroded when water is released. Embankments also serve as virtual farm to market roads in remote barangays and these have to be maintained. Collection of fees should not be entrusted to farmers cooperatives for not a few squandered the amount. Instead, cluster four or more barangays and set up an NIA office manned by an NIA personnel in-charge not only of collection but also programming and allocation of water especially during planting season. The same NIA location must have silos and bodegas where farmers, during bumper harvests and when price is low, may store their palay free of moisture and sell these when price improves. A quedan system similar to the sugar industry must be studied and adopted for this to be effected. Like in any business endeavors, farmers are motivated to produce more if they gain more. By the way, NIA is an important component in rice productivity. By itself it can be a revenue-generating agency if every irrigation

Wednesday, April 19, 2017 dam will have a hydropower plant component. I brought this up with then NIA Administrator Pete Lavina before he bowed out of office. Let’s think out of the box. I often wonder why it takes so long to decide to build an irrigation dams and systems. Why should it be so difficult to decide when it comes to farmer’s plight? Why the row over who will import and how big the volume be? Corruption must not rise over the issue of rice. Just heed the President’s counsel: “Do not import rice during harvest season.” (Mr. Jun Ledesma is a community journalist who writes from Davao City and comments from the perspective of a Mindanaoan)

as City Mayor. But, it was unfortunate to think about that after several months in office, he was accused of masterminding of the ambushed of former Cong. Vicente Belmonte Jr. As a consequence, he was incarcerated for a crime he had not done and will never do in his life time. The cr imes le vele d against him were fabricated through the help of four Philippine National Police (PNP) officers that warrant the declaration of “probable cause” by the Fiscals that investigated said cases. Consequently, he was jailed for one year, three months, forty seven minutes and thirty six seconds. Since his incarceration was just a fabricated accusations with the help of the PNP officers, Region 10, the Department of Justice had issued a Resolution recalling back the previous declaration of “Probable Cause” recklessly issued by the previous Fiscals that investigated the cases. Such Resolution was reinforced by the landmark decision of Judge Ferdinand C. Baylon, National Capital Judicial Region, Regional Trial Court 77, Quezon City exonerating him and his co-accused. “As postscript, the court exhorts the Department of Interior and Local Government, the Philippine National Police and the NAPOLCOM to initiate the necessary investigation and prosecution against those police officers who were involved in the planting of evidence, falsification of blotter of the Laguindingan police station and the illegal arrest of Dominador Tumala so similar incidents will not be repeated in the future. In fact, there is now charges being filed by Mayor Regencia against the Police Officers who allegedly helped former Cong. Vicente Belmonte, Jr. in the planting of evidence(s) against him that catapulted his incarceration for more than a year, in Ombudsman for Mindanao for: GRAVE ABUSE OF AUTHORITY,

GROSS MISCONDUCT, & VIOLATION OF SECTION 4(a), 4(b) and 4(h) OF REPUBLIC ACT NO. 6713, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICAL STANDARD FOR PUBLIC OFFICIALS AND EMPLOYEES. They are as follows: 1. PSSUPTALEXANDER TAGUM- Former CIDG-10 Director; PSUPT LEONILO CABUG- Former Provincial Director PNP-Misamis Oriental; PSINSP BRYAN T. INOJALDO- Former Chief of Police, Laguindingan, Mis. Oriental; SPO4 ARNOLD SALCEDO- CIDG Investigator. On January 24, 2017, City Mayor was released from the Iligan City Jail. It was Monday morning when Mayor Regencia entered the Anahaw Amphitheater, the city government officials and employees were of great surprise to see their idol back. There were shouts of great happiness and joy and some failed to hold their tears from falling down on their checks, tears of happiness. I was one of them that failed to stop my tears from falling. It was a triumphant entry. His tragedy before becomes a triumph in the end, while former City ViceMayor Ruderic Marzo and almost all of his councilors were meted by Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales: “Perpetual Disqualification From Holding Public Office” without prejudice to criminal charges, as the criminal offenses already reach to the Sandiganbayan through the Ombudsman for resolution, a very tragedy for them after their power grabbing triumph. Moreover, knowing that former Cong. Vicente Belmonte, Jr. was declared twice by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte that he was involved in drug business, these can also be considered a tragedy after their triumph over the incarceration of City Mayor Celso G. Regencia. Agree or Disagree! City Information Staff, Office of the City Mayor, Iligan.

in the “Garden of Malasag,” the only remaining reservation site cum ecotourism site in this trading capital of Northern Mindanao. Pacheco said that every year, during the observance of the Holy Week, about 50,000 devotees climb the mountain of Malasag, an ideal site for self-retrospection, that overlooks the placid Macabalan Bay. He said that while the tourism officials who managed the Malasag Garden imposed rules on mountain climbers, and visitors, the pile of garbage was always inevitable. After the Holy Week, tons of plastic bottles, cellophane and other piles of garbage littered in the res-

ervation site of the Garden of Malasag, he said. “We assumed that each person could probably disposed half to one kilo of garbage leading us to calculate that about 20,000 kilos of garbage or 20-ton of garbage could be possible,” Pachedo said. He said that the village officials patiently collect the garbage and successfully cleared the Malasag reservation and the eco-tourism site of garbage just before the Easter Sunday celebration.

collected P3,026,365,814 billion as compared to its assigned tax collection goal of P2,662,475,000. Also in the first quarter last year, Alcid said the BOC-10 managed to collect P2,455,700,746.60 billion, which was higher by P570,665,067.40 million from its tax collection goal. BOC-10 comprises the port of Cagayan de Oro, subport of Iligan, sub-port of Ozamiz, and the Mindanao International Container Terminal (MICT) in Tagoloan town in Misamis Oriental. Alcid said the port of Tagoloan had the highest tax collection record; covering at least 80 percent of the entire collection of BOC-10 in the first quarter. Out of the four, he said only the sub-port of Ozamiz failed to hit its collection target. From January to March, he said the port of Ozamiz collected only P20,230,367. It is supposed to collect P27,423,492.50. Alcid further explained that out of four collection agents, only sub-port of Ozamiz didn’t hit their target. From January to March, out of P27,423,492.50 collection assigned, they collected the amount of P20,230,367 short by P7,193,125.50. Other ports who surpassed its tax collection target include the port of Cagayan de Oro, target P580,153,302.50, actual collection P793,453,902, an increase of P213,300,599.50. The port if Iligan, target P69,224,350, actual collection P184,571,800 surpass of P115,347,450. The port of MICPT, target assigned P1,985,673,855, actual collection P2,028,109,745 having an increase of P42,435,890. On one hand, Alcid attributed outstanding collection performance of the BOC-10 in the first quarter to “our good effort and excellent efficiency, likewise, virtuous team work, constant supervision to our co-employee and above all, establishes a good relation to the importers.” With the overwhelming tax collection performance, Alcid expressed optimism that the agency will be able to meet its P12 billion tax collection goal this year. On the other hand, Alcid dismissed the reports that smuggling is rampant in his area of responsibility. “Actual collection speaks of itself, if the smuggling

reports are true! Therefore, we can’t deliver a good collection,” he emphasized.

agency jumpstart its aim for a “green economy” by adding value to locally sourced environmental products and services. This includes patronizing products from cottage industries to help local communities and encourage them to be more creative and sustainable in production. The DENR, however, is appealing for everyone to be mindful of their surroundings by managing their wastes, conserving water resources, and being respectful of local cultures and community practices. Nature trippers are particularly reminded to be careful of activities such as smoking and cooking within vegetated areas during the dry season to prevent forest fires. Aside from possibly setting back the government’s reforestation and revegetation efforts, forest fires also pose dangers to humans and wildlife living within and around the area. The agency also advises trekkers to abide by orders or ordinances banning activities in certain protected areas, such as in Mt. Banahaw and Mt. Apo, to allow restoration and See green, page 7
