Gov’t urged to invest more in human resources The Aquino administration has to invest more in human resources which can translate to higher productivity and can help bring higher wages for workers. “In its (Aquino administration) commitment to higher spending for e du c at i on a n d h e a lt h , the country’s growth and development is not only based on gross domestic product alone. It can also be attributed to human development”, Dr. Benjamin Diokno, economist and professor at the University of the Philippines, said during the recent 34th National Conference of Employers at the Marriott Hotel. D i o k n o s h a re d a n d agreed to the recent Human Development Report that said “few countries have sustained rapid growth without impressive levels of public investment - not just in infrastructure, but also in health and education”. The report also noted that “rapid expansion of quality

jobs is a critical feature of growth that promotes human development”. In Januar y 2013, the unemployment rate of the country posted 7.1 percent, a slim improvement of .1 percent compared to 7.2 percent posted in January last year. T h ou g h w it h s l i g ht improvement, the country still has the highest unemployment among the ASEAN 5 member-countries, he stressed. M e a n w h i l e , underemployment in the same period posted an increase of two percent from 19 percent to 21 percent. In the 1980’s, the country ranked number one in terms of human development index (HDI) among the ASEAN 5 memb er-countries at par with Malaysia. Today, it ranked behind Malaysia and Thailand, only slightly ahead of Indonesia. The country has lagged the most among ASEAN member-countries in

reducing its shortfall relative to the maximum HDI score, he said. Given this report, Diokno noted that this is a major challenge for the Aquino administration and also those that will succeed it. The government has to step up its efforts to reduce the shortfall in the years ahead, he added. To help address this issue, Diokno said that there is a need to revive the manufacturing sector to provide decent jobs for new entrants into the labor force. This can be achieved by addressing a number of binding constraints in the sector such as lack of infrastructure, high cost of doing business in the country (both national and local levels), high cost and unreliable power supply, policy inconsistency and the lack of highly skilled manpower. -- Gelo Udaundo, PHILEXPORT News and Features

PPI to re-examine media and award best regional papers ON IT S 49t h ye ar and 17th annual conference, the Philippine Press Institute, also known as the national association of newspapers, will re-examine the journalism practice in the country and assess how newspapers are surviving in the digital age in this year’s National Press Forum (NPF) “Watching the Watchdog: Re-examining Ourselves” on June 13 and 14 at the New World Hotel in Makati. The annual event highly anticipated by PPI members f r o m L u z o n , Vi s a y a s , Mindanao and the NCR will gather publishers and editors who will also discuss other issues and concerns related to sustainability and even threats that make it even more difficult for community newspapers and journalists to survive. Also invited to attend are members of the diplomatic community, journalism and communication students and educators, business groups, representatives from the civil society organizations, media executives and government officials. “We need to be critical of ourselves too,” says Malaya publisher and PPI chairman Amado ‘Jake’ Macasaet during the final meeting of the PPI Board first quarter of the year. “There are those who corrupt and those who are being corrupted.” He said the theme goes beyond ethics but more importantly, touches on the sur vival of newspapers amidst the

proliferation of online media and other competitors. Media critic and PPI v i c e - c h a i r m a n Ve r g e l Santos who will do the introduction to set the tone of the conference, said that proficiency should also be the focus. “Not only because the quality of professional practice in ever y aspect is poor, but also because technology has opened the practice to people altogether untrained for it, not to mention clueless about it,” he said. Both seasoned newspapermen and longtime PPI trustees agreed that professional values should be revisited and the quality of their observance as well the extent of their nonobservance re-assessed. The PPI Board’s choice of speakers such as Dean Rolando Tolentino from t h e Un i v e r s i t y o f t h e Philippines’ College of Mass Communication (UPCMC), Ramon Tuazon from the Asian Institute of Journalism and Communication (AIJC) foreign correspondent and popular journalist-blogger Raissa Robles, press freedom f ig hter Rowena Paraan from the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines (NUJP), Malou Mangahas from the Philippine Center on Investigative Journalism (PCIJ), and Marites Vitug from Rappler to name a few, will hopefully provide a wide spectrum of insights and lessons from the shortcomings of the media

from both practitioners and academic experts as the ‘third party’. Highlight of the Press Forum is the 2012 Civic Journalism Community Press Awards that will recognize community newspapers that excelled last year in editing, photojournalism, e ditor ial, business and economic reporting, science and environment reporting, culture and arts reporting, and climate change and biodiversity reporting which is also this year’s exhibit theme. The 17th National Press Forum is being supported by The Coca-Cola Export Corporation (TCCEC) as the Institute’s principal funder t h rou g h a p ar t n e rs h ip program on “Building Better Communities Through Civic Journalism”, and in part by Nickel Asia Corporation as major sponsor, New World Hotel, PhilHealth, First Philippine Holdings C or p oration, Petron Corporation, SM Retail, Inc., SM Investments C orporation, and L and Bank of the Philippines. The National Commission on Culture and the Arts (NCCA) and the ASEAN C entre for Biodiversity (ACB) will provide the cash prizes for the winners of culture and arts reporting, and climate change and bi o d ive rsit y re p or t i ng . Official media partner is the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism (PCIJ).

16 schools in R-12 bid for tuition hike By Allen V. Estabillo

GENERAL SANTOS CITY — The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) in Region 12 has endorsed for approval by its central office the application of 16 private colleges and universities in the region to increase their tuition and other fees this school year. Jocelyn Santoceldes, CHED Region 12 education supervisor, said Monday they issued the endorsement based on the results of the initial evaluation conducted by the regional office on the documentary requirements submitted by the concerned institutions and their compliance with various conditions set for the fee increases. She clarified that CHED regional offices only receive and evaluate the application for the tuition fee increases and the final decision on the matter is made by the commission en banc. “We’re still waiting for the (commission en banc’s) decision. Until that comes out, all these applications are not yet considered as approved,” she told MindaNews. CHED central office reported last week that 451 private colleges and universities in the country have applied for another round of increases in tuition and other fees for this school year. The regional offices initially recommended the approval of the petitions of 344 institutions and denied those of 107 others. C HE D C h a i r p e r s o n Patricia Licuanan said the five-man commission en banc will deliberate and make a final decision on

all applications on Monday (May 27). In Region 12, the CHED regional office said 16 private colleges and universities in the area have applied for the fee increases. Region 12 comprises the provinces of South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani, North Cotabato as well as the cities of General Santos, Koronadal, Tacurong, Kidapawan and Cotabato. In this city, the colleges and universities that applied for tuition fee increases were the Notre Dame of Dadiangas University, Holy Trinity College, AMA Computer Learning Center and the AMA Computer College. They were joined by Notre Dame Siena College in Polomolok, South Cotabato; Notre Dame of Marbel University in Koronadal City; Notre Dame of Tacurong College in Tacurong City and Notre Dame of Salaman College in Lebak, Sultan Kudarat; I Link College of Science and Technology, AMA Computer College and Dr. P. Ocampo Colleges in Cotabato City; Southern P h i l i p pi n e s Me t h o d i s t College, Central Mindanao Colleges and Notre Dame of K i d ap aw an C o l l e g e in Kidapawan City; and, Southern Christian College and Notre Dame of Midsayap College in Midasayap, North

Cotabato. D r. Z o h r a h a y d a h Panawidan, CHED Region 12 assistant director, earlier said the 16 institutions, which were seeking 5- to 10-percent increases in tuition and other fees, have fully complied with the requirements set by the commission by the April 15 deadline. Three other applications filed by the deadline last March 31 were denied by the regional office due to lack of requirements and for failing to meet the deadlines. Pan aw i d an s ai d t h e requirements include consultations with students, parents and other concerned groups about the proposed tuition hikes. CHED requires that 70 percent of the applied increase in tuition and other school fees should be allocated to the upgrading of teachers’ and school personnel’s benefits, salaries and allowances while the remaining 30 percent should go to improvements in school facilities and equipment. Panawidan said they carefully e valuated the applications and documentary requirements submitted to their office and specifically checked whether they implemented “illegal fees.” “Colleges or universities found imposing illegal fees are immediately disqualified from applying for tuition fee increase,” she said. Meantime, Santoceldes clarif ied that once the applicants get their final approval from the CHED central office, the increase in tuition and other fees will hike/PAGE 8

What’s the Hardest Part of Living with Me?

THINK

hink a minute…Have you ever tried to get 2 fighting A Minute kids to admit their share of By Jhan Tiafau Hurst the blame? A 40-year-old man told his friends: “I’ve learned that when you ask your wife ‘What’s wrong?’ And she says ‘Nothing.’ Man, watch out! B ecause her ‘nothing’ means you’re getting blamed for SOMETHING!” Someone said, “Marriage is like a loaf of bread: no matter how thin you slice it, there are always 2 sides.” Because there’s his story and version of the problem, and then there’s her side of it. A husband and wife were meeting with a marriage counselor. The counselor told them both to ask each other this question: “What’s the hardest part of living with me?” Then, without interrupting or defending themselves, the husband and wife had to listen to each other tell them what was difficult about living with them. So they were both responsible to take their share of the blame for their marriage problems. The husband had to admit that he’d been selfish and immature when he went to the bar or pub after work instead of coming home to be with his wife and kids. And the wife had to admit she was always nagging and ruining the mood in their home so that her husband and kids didn’t enjoy being around her. You see, it’s only when we admit our share of the blame for our marriage problems that we can begin to do change and improve it. Then we will stop trying to change our wife or husband, and start working on the only person we can change: ourselves. That’s when our wife or husband might start wanting to change also. But it’s not easy for us to see our own faults and weaknesses, let alone be strong enough to admit we have them. But until we take the responsibility for the problems and unhappiness which we cause in our marriage, very little will change. So why not be honest with yourself? Hurst/PAGE 8

Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis

he human body needs certain minerals in order to regulate basic functions that help in the day to day activities that make existence something to look forward to each waking moment. Potassium is one such mineral: it helps regulate major bodily functions like keeping the heart’s rhythm normal , the blood pressure within the acceptable range, water balance, and yes, making sure that the muscles contract properly. Potassium can be taken from our favourite foods like bananas, avocado, kiwi, milk, oranges, spinach, carrots and seaweeds, to mention a few. But, even if our diet consists of foods rich in potassium, there will still be instances when the level of this mineral is low. A decrease in its level is not only caused by not eating potassium rich foods, but the intake of certain drugs or medications like diuretics to lower blood pressure, or too much licorice. Vomiting and excessive sweating during heavy physical exertions can make one lose potassium from his/ her body. And, when this happens, paralysisor weakness of the muscles can happen. Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis, although not so common, but when it does occur, can scare the wits out of the affected person. Usually, it affects the younger age group, most start

I n Focus The weakness or paralysis By Dr. Mary Jean Loreche mostly affects that of the muscles located at the shoulders and hips, the arms, legs and even the eye muscles, and often happens after sleep or rest. Imagine waking up from a nap or after an exhilarating exercise, and the once active muscles are now stiff, and unwilling to move. It is not uncommon too to have the paralysis after indulging in a high carbohydrate, high salt diet, or after taking in too much alcohol, with each episode lasting for 3 to 24 hours. Other than muscle weakness or paralysis, a patient may present with heart rhythms that are abnormal, difficulty of breathing and swallowing, constipation, fatigue. A correct diagnosis of the paralysis is important, for management and treatment purposes.

How Liquid are You?

ow balanced are your investments? Is being liquid a matter of great significance to you? Balanced investment strategies give you a discernible edge over the medium- and long-term. Among the most important concerns to consider when balancing your investment strategies is the factor of liquidity. Liquidity determines the ease of converting your investment assets back to cash or its corresponding cash equivalents in any market condition. Aside from cash in your personal vaults, the amounts placed in your savings and current accounts are among the more favored liquid assets to boot. With your ATM card or the assistance of your neighborhood bank’s teller, cash may be available at your disposal anytime. However, some higher-growth oriented investment instruments called paper assets are generally considered liquid as well. Certificates of stock ownership, government and private company bonds, medium-term and long-term commercial papers as well as managed investment funds may be traded in the primary or secondary markets by financial intermediaries. Hence, within a few working days, you could easily recover the cash value of your investments in these instruments. Granting a similar profile of 15% average compounded return rate per annum for the next 10 years, would it matter to you if your PhP 1 million is locked in a non-liquid investment vehicle such as real estate or would having the same amount in an instrument that is easily cash-recoverable be a bettersounding investment exit alternative? Issues regarding liquidity balancing are at best left to the inclinations and whims of each individual. However, with due consideration to the equally important investment attributes of

This means that out of your entire net worth, half of your assets may be readily converted back to cash or their cash equivalents. Imagine yourself growing your non-liquid real estate assets at a rate of 30-50% per year, and with your life’s net worth locked in almost all its entirety in this vehicle alone. What if some turbulent economic event significantly affects performance of the real estate sector in your domain? Good if you also have a diversification tactic within the real estate sector itself. But what if you need a sizable amount of cash that badly and you’d have to dispose of a couple of real estate assets in a down market? You’d have no other option but to take that beating.

Environmental activist in hiding amid threats By Vanessa L. Almeda

SURIGAO CITY – An environment activist in Surigao del Sur is now on the run, seeking sanctuary in an unknown but safe places after unidentified men attempted to enter his home early morning Friday last week in what he believes is a move to “silence” him. C h i t o Tr i l l a n e s , spokesperson of the S o cia l Ac t ion C enter (SAC) Vicareate for the Carrascal-Cantilan-MadridCarmen-Lanuza and Parang (CarCanMadCarLan-Par) Zone in Surigao del Sur, is one of the active leaders in the fight against illegal logging and mining activities in the province. Trillanes is one of the active leaders of the antimining struggle in the five towns of Surigao del Sur, including the month-long barricade held last March until April at the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) regional office here. In a mobile phone interview, the outspoken laity worker said he believes the motive behind the “open threat to his life” has to do with his advocacy in the recently concluded political exercise. “I would like to believe that because of my participation to help green candidates who we consider as environmental champions is one of the principal motives in this obvious attempt to

liquidate me,” Trillanes said. But he is not discounting the possibility that people involved in illegal logging could also be the one after him. It was learned that even before the May 13 elections, he had been receiving reports that some armed men, with financial backing from politicians “who support mining,” are out to silence him. Tr i l l a n e s s upp or t e d the successful campaign of reelectionist Cantilan Mayor Genito Guardo, who is known as the only antimining advocate among mayors in the five towns in Surigao del Sur affected by mining – Carrascal, Cantilan, Madrid, Carmen and Lanuza. According to Trillanes, since the end of the elections in the past two weeks, men on board a black Kawasaki Rouser 135 motorcycle have been tailing him. The night before the alleged attempt to break into his house in Cantilan, the same black motorbike was seen 20 meters from where he was staying in

Lanuza. During this time, he was already moving from one place to another for his safety. And while he was on his way home to Cantilan late that night, he believed the same motorbike trailed him, too. Arriving at his home about 11 p.m., Trillanes said he managed to sleep past midnight, only to be awakened by his mother less than an hour later. He said his mother heard a noise near the window of the front porch at 1:15 a.m. and decided to check. When she opened the porch light, she saw two men carrying a bag who were hurriedly going towards a motorcycle, which he believes could be the same Rouser 125. Trillanes said he already brought the matter to the local police “for them to intensify their intel(ligence) monitoring activities.” But he lamented that “they have not done anything.” But Chief Insp. Jesus Aranco, chief of Cantilan police, said in a text message Thursday morning that that he already instructed his deputy “to conduct roving patrol to preempt any unusual eventualities.” This, he said, includes patrolling Trillanes’s residence and the rest of the town. hiding/PAGE 8

Massive gathering of vital seaweed in Surigao alarms concerned citizens By Roel Catoto

Sargassum is aplenty at a warehouse of a local buyer in Barangay San Juan in Surigao City being sold for P8 a kilo in this photo taken May 21, 2013. This common brownish seaweed floating near the shoreline is being massively harvested in Surigao City and neighboring islands and exported to China. Common uses include animal feeds and liquid fertilizers. But concerned citizens are worried that the unabated harvest may cause marine ecological imbalance. mindanews photo by roel n . catoto

SURIGAO CIT Y – The massive gathering of sargassum, the brownish floating seaweed commonly seen near the shore, has alarmed some concerned citizens in the city, fearing marine ecological imbalance. Johanne Jake Miranda, dive master of the Surigao Dive Club, said he received several information from different island barangays in the city and in the neighboring islands of Dinagat, Siargao, and Bucas Grande that tons of sargassum are being transported continuously to the city everyday. Miranda said this is quite alarming because this seaweed is essential to marine life. Locally known as “samu,” Miranda said this seaweed must be protected otherwise there would be a drastic effect on the local marine life, eventually affecting fishermen, too. He suggests that the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) conduct a monitoring or study of the massive harvesting of sargassum. Nerio Casil, regional director of BFAR-Caraga,

told MindaNews that for now, there is no existing law prohibiting the harvest of sargassum. He thus urged local government units (LGUs) to pass ordinances as a way of regulating in gathering the seaweed. A study conducted by marine biologists at the University of the Philippines in Di liman note d t hat sargassum is “economically important” because it is being used as animal feed and liquid fertilizers, among others. But Ariel T. Ortiz and Gavino C. Trono Jr., of UP’s Marine Science Institute, noted that sargassum proliferates “in vast areas along coastal waters housing myriad life forms, making t hem one of t he most ecologically important and productive communities.” In their study published in the Science Diliman journal in 2000, the scientists noted that “in 1987, fishermen in Central Visayas and Northern Mindanao claimed a decline in fish stocks and other associated marine organisms after tons of Sargassum were harvested and exported for seaweed meal.” In the United States,

the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council considers sargassum as important in “provid(ing) crucial habitat for a wide variety of marine animals in the open ocean, including economically important pelagic species such as tuna, dolphin, wahoo and billfish as well as sea turtles and marine birds.” Darwin Brian Lawas, a marine biologist of Green Mindanao Association, Inc., said the massive harvesting of sargassum must be controlled to prevent imbalance in the marine ecosystem that will affect fish and other living organisms. He said fishermen will suffer most in the long run. Dried sargassum now sells P8 a kilo in the local market. Tata Tribor, who works for one of the local sargassum buyers here, s aid t he y transport tons of dried samu to Cagayan de Oro City. He said the seaweed is being exported to China. L a s t y e a r, C i t y C ou nc i l or C h r istophe r Bonite, chairperson of the committee on environment, had considered regulating seaweed/PAGE 8

were only made aware of Trillanes’s situation after receiving a text message from the PNP regional command based in Butuan City. He said Trillanes has not officially filed a report or blotter to the station. Meanwhile, the Alyansa T i g i l M i n a ( AT M ) , a nationwide alliance of nongovernment organizations, peoples organizations and communities in the forefront against large-scale mining activities in the country, will raise Trillanes’s case to the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) as soon as possible. Jaybee Garganera, ATM national coordinator, said they will immediately raise the issue to CHR chair Etta Rosales. ATM has been in partnership with SAC and environment and civil society groups in the CarCanMadCarLan area in Surigao del Sur for years and Garganera said his group will not back down in its support for the struggles of antimining groups in the area as reports of harassments and killings have reached them. E ar l y t h i s y e ar, t r i b a l Manobo leader Manuel “Datu Kajugjog” Gardigo was shot and killed by three unidentified gunmen while on his way home after attending a neighbor’s wake. Kajugjog was the president of the Kalasag organization in Lanuza. He led the antiillegal logging campaign in the area for the last several years. Garganera said ATM is gathering more cases of human rights violations in the area and urged local human rights groups and peoples organizations to d o c u m e nt , c ol l ate an d complete mining related incidents of harassments and threats. “We are also verifying reports

of human rights violations against IPs (indigenous peoples) who have barricaded a m i n i n g c o mp a ny i n Cantilan,” Garganera said. Meanwhile, another environmental group, Green Mindanao, Inc., said in a text message that another shooting incident occurred at 9:35 p.m. last Tuesday along the national highway of Brgy. Bocawe, also in Lanuza. According to Green Mindanao spokesperson Nokie Calunsag, the victim was identified as Vicente Orillaneda, supporter of a losing mayoral candidate. Initial reports said the victim was shot using a caliber .45 handgun. (mindanews)

harvest of the seaweed. But until today, he has not yet acted on it. He said, he did not prioritize this matter because he learned that local buyers had stopped buying sargassum late last year. Bonite said he did not expect the massive harvest of sargassum to resume. Some island villagers are not happy with the massive gathering of the seaweed.

James Pejan, a Bantay Dagat member of Barangay Libuac here, said that he find this a destructive activity. “Even though there is no law or ordinance on this, this should be stopped or at least put some limit to their yield,” he stressed. “Sargassum harvesters would just cut or uproot the seaweed as much as they could and don’t bother with

replanting,” he added. For those doing the harvesting, though, sargassum is a blessing. Edgar Pigaro, also of Barangay Libuac, said he can gather up to 200 kilos a day. After three days of drying, he then sells it to local buyers in the city. “At least we can use the money to buy rice and other needs,” he said. (mindanews)

Statement of Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Abigail F. Valte on the 1st Quarter GDP Growth for 2013 To d ay, t h e Nat i o n a l Statistics Coordination Board reported that, in the first quarter of 2013, the Philippines’ GDP grew by 7.8 percent—the highest quarterly growth rate posted under the Aquino administration; and the highest in a nonpresidential election year since 1988. Based on initial readings, our economy outperformed that of all Asian economies in terms of first quarter growth, including China, which gre w by 7.7 p ercent, Indonesia, which grew by 6.0 percent, and Malaysia, which grew 4.1 percent. These results surpassed almost all market expectations. Growth was felt in almost all sectors, most notably in local manufacturing, which gre w by 9.7 p ercent. T h e c ont i nu at i on of government public expenditures was also key, increasing by 13.2 percent. This was helped by the growth in the government’s spending in public construction, which expanded by 45.6 percent.

By expenditure, capital formation likewise grew by 47.7 percent. Without doubt, the confidence of both investors and consumers remains strong, as e conomic ac t iv it y accelerates even in an uncertain global economic climate. More than economic growth, however, the Aquino administration is focused on fostering inclusive growth. Since our administration took office, we have worked to drastically expand social safety nets to help the most vulnerable in our countr y. Most noteworthy is the fourfold increase in the budget of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, which to date has helped more than 3.9 million Filipino households. The recent election results show that the public has confidence in the President, and agrees with the direction the country is going. Therefore, our administration will continue to promote and expand policies that lead to a Philippines where no one is left behind.

Petitioners are Filipinos, of legal age, married to each other and residents of Barangay Salong, Baroy, Lanao del Norte. The respondent is sued in his official capacity. Petitioners were married on October 5, 1981 at Salong, Baroy, Lanao del Norte and the facts of Petitioner;s marriage were duly registered at the Office of the Respondents. However, the entry of the date of marriage of Petitioner were entered in the Certificate of Live Birth of their children namely; JUNE ABELLA LAUDE, ISAGANI ABELLA LAUDE and ANTONIO ABELLA LAUDE, Jr. as October 4, 1982 instead of October 5, 1981. That in the same Certificate of Live Birth of the abovementioned children, the entry of the mother’s maiden first name and middle name were erroneously spelled and entered as LUZ MURAKAMI. That finally in the Certificate of Live Birth of JUNE ABELLA, the entry under SEX is erroneous as he is of the MALE gender and not FEMALE as appearing in the said birth certificate. Medical Certificate issued by Dr. Melania F. AbadUntao MPH, Municipal Health Officer of Baroy, Lanao del Norte attest to the fact. That petitioners as well as their children JUNE, ISAGANI and ANTONIO Jr. are of good moral character and are not convicted of any crime especially those involving moral turpitude. That the petition is filed in good faith and is not intended to conceal the commission of a crime and/or defeat the investigation and prosecution of the same. That petitioner is likewise desirous of correcting these aforementioned erroneous entries so as to avoid confusion and future inconvenience these may cause in the processing of the petition of the Petitioner’s children to obtain legal status to live and work in Japan being a fourth generation Filipino of Japanese descent. Certificate of Live Birth of Petitioner-wife is attached to the record to support the herein petition. Set the hearing to establish the jurisdictional requirements of the petition to June 24, 2013, at 8:30 in the morning before the sala of this Court. Any persons/s interested to the petition may come to Court on said date and time to show cause why said petition should not be granted. Furnish copy of this Order to the Office of the Solicitor General at Makati City, Office of the Local Civil Registrar of Baroy, Lanao del Norte, Office of the Public Prosecutor in Tubod, Lanao del Norte, Atty. Dorothea Basalo, the petitioners’ counsel and to the petitioners, spouses ANTONIO B. LAUDE and LUCY M. ABELLA-LAUDE. Petitioners are hereby directed to publish copy of the Order to a newspaper of general circulation for three consecutive weeks, at their expense to comply the jurisdictional requirements of the Rule.

While the upsurge may primarily be attributed to the summer season, it is also a clear indication that the nation has galvanized its reputation as an attractive destination. We have been seeing a sustainable increase in arrivals since last year. This building enthusiasm for the Philippines, aided by our government’s good governance agenda, gives us the confidence to achieve our target of 10 million tourist arrivals by 2016. Central to this, we are reaching out to industry, government, and civil society to continue investing in sustainable projects and partnerships to secure our continued growth,” Tourism Secretary Ramon R. Jimenez, Jr. said.

(IFEX). Lim cited that Singapore imports more than 90% of its food from the different countries. With these, she said that they want to enable the consumers to enjoy key food items at adequate supply and stable prices with assurance of food safety. She informed the participants that Singapore imported fruits from 52 countries in 2012, Malaysia and China being the top two sources of fruits. She added that the Philippines accounted for seven percent of Singapore’s total imports last year. The top fruit imports from the Philippines are banana, pineapple, papaya, mango, Hawaii papaya, lemon, avocado, plum mango and pomelo. On the other, Singapore imported vegetables from 43 countries in 2012, with Malaysia and China still the top two sources of vegetables. She added however that the Philippines accounted for only one percent of Singapore’s total imports last year. The top vegetable imports from the Philippines are shallot, sweet corn, capsicum (bell pepper red); oyster mushroom, capsicum (bell pepper green), asparagus and abalone mushroom. Lim pointed out that Singapore consumers prefer vegetables such as cabbage, tomato, capsicum, garlic, chili, onion, potato, cucumber, Chinese cabbage, ginger, broccoli, cauliflower, caixin, xiao baicai, batam, kalian, spinach, and lettuce head. She also mentioned that

AVA has adopted a sciencebased risk assessment and management approach that is based on international standards to ensure safety of imported food. She added that they are rigorously testing for pesticide residues and other harmful contaminants like preservatives, heavy, microbial contaminants, among others. Meanwhile, the Department of Agriculture (DA) posthumously honored a pioneering farmer-rice scientist based in nearby South Cotabato province for his contribution to the development of the country’s rice industry and the organic farming sector. Agriculture Secretary Alcala personally bestowed a special citation on Wednesday to the late Perfecto “Ka Pecs” Ruiz Vicente, who succumbed last Monday to a lingering illnesses at the age of 80 at his home in Barangay San Vicente in Sto. Niño town in South Cotabato. “His commitment and dedication to his work has been an inspiration to all of us. We lost a great man, a friend, a dedicated farmer and scientist. For me, this is the second time that I lost a father,” an emotional Alcala said at Vicente’s wake. The official credited Vicente, who will be laid to rest on Friday, for his long years of work in promoting sustainable agriculture and organic farming as well as in assisting small rice farmers in the countryside. He said the late scientist is considered as among the pillars of the country’s rice industry and was among the brains behind the crafting of Republic Act 10068 or the Organic Agriculture Act of 2010, which Alcala authored while representing the 2nd District of Quezon province in the 14th Congress. Alcala said Vicente was among those who inspired him and other DA officials in pursuing its flagship initiative Food Staples Sufficiency Program, which mainly aims to provide sufficient, safe and nutritious food for every family and eventually end the country’s dependency to rice importation. Peasant parents Vicente was born in Manila on May 5, 1933 to peasant parents from Pangasinan province. A consistent scholar, he eventually graduated with a degree in agriculture at the University of the Philippines (UP) in Los Banos. Vicente took a job for several years as a researcher and faculty member at then UP College of Agriculture and later joined farmer-scientist network and think tank Magsasaka at Siyentipiko Para sa PagUnlad ng Agrikultura Inc. (MASIPAG). His work with MASIPAG brought him to Quezon province, Bicol and Davao regions and eventually in South Cotabato to conduct extensive research focusing on the preservation, propagation and breeding of indigenous rice varieties. For his works, Vicente was awarded by DA with a special citation as outstanding farmer-scientist during the 7th National Organic Agriculture

Conference held in Lucena City in Quezon province on November 16, 2010. He was also a recipient of MASIPAG’s Lifetime Service Award and several other national and local awards and citations. Alcala said he first met Vicente several years ago when he was pursuing the passage of the Organic Agriculture Act at the House of Representatives. During his visits to the scientist’s home cum rice laboratory in Barangay San Vicente in Sto. Niño town, where the latter had settled for the last eight years, Alcala said he was awed by Vicente’s simplicity and drive to continue with his work despite his advanced age then. “Talking to him, I saw that he was a pure person. He was really happy and satisfied with the kind of life that he pursued,” he said. Vicente, who was exposed for many years among the poorest of the poor farmers in the country, had once lost his trust in the government and national leaders, Alcala said. He said through their series of interactions, he was able to bring back the latter’s trust to the government and he later on convinced him to help DA in training its farm technicians, agriculture extension workers and small rice farmers in the area. “He was practical and direct as a person. The first time that I visited him, I brought a soil tester as a gift. He expressed dismay over it, believing it was made in China, and was only relieved when I showed him that it came from Japan. But then he asked me: ‘Congressman, ito ba ay bigay o lagay (is this a gift or a bribe)?’ I only managed a smile and we became good friends after that,” he said. Black rice Alcala said among Vicente’s “greatest treasure and achievement” was his collection of over 500 traditional and indigenous rice varieties coming from various parts of the country. Among these is the black rice, which DA earlier int ro duce d t hroug h t he traditional or organic farming method in some parts of the country and is now exported abroad. “In one of my visits here about two years ago, he gave me two spoonfuls of black rice seeds. I initially introduced them to a group of farmers in Quezon province and now they’re starting to export their produce,” he said. To further give due honor and recognition to Vicente’s work and achievements, Alcala said he will lead the establishment of a foundation in the latter’s name. The planned foundation will champion the scientist’s lifetime commitment to mainstream sustainable agriculture and organic farming in the country, he said. “His work will continue through this foundation. We will make sure that his vision to pass on these indigenous rice treasures to the later generations will be fulfilled,” he added. (with a report from Mindanews)
