enator-elect Cynthia Villar urged the Filipinos to strive to become “financially independent” as the nation celebrates its Independence Day. “I believe that the only way to empower people, especially the poor, is to help them to be economically or financially independent. We should not just give alms or dole outs; we should equip them with necessary skills and
know-how so they can fend for themselves,” said Villar. With still high unemployment rate of the country, Villar said entrepreneurship is the way to economic free-

dom and progress. “Nowadays, poverty is what keeps people from becoming really independent. This is the reason why we have been promoting entrepreneurship as a way out of poverty for young and old people alike because it creates jobs,” Villar said.

OWWA pays tribute to migrant workers in Soccsksargen region KORONADAL City, South Cotabato––Overseas Filipino Workers and their families from Soccsksargen Region flocked to SM City General Santos last Friday during the Overseas Workers Welfare AdministrationRegion 12 celebration of the 18th Migrant Workers Day. Over 500 participants
from different provinces of the region attended the yearly event that gives recognition to the invaluable contributions of migrant workers around the globe. The celebration served as a venue for government and its partner private entities to showcase their programs and services for the benefit
of migrant workers and their families. This years theme is “Migranteng Pilipino: Tayo ay magkasama sa pag-abot ng pangarap mo.” Among the highlights of the event was the launching of the tribute song for OFWs “Abot Kamay Kita” written by renowned com-
poser Vehnee Saturno and performed by Rachelle Ann Go and Jay-R. “The launching was held simultaneously in different OWWA regional offices and selected posts in Europe, Middle East and Asia,” according to OWWA-12 programs and services division chief Marilou Sumalinog.
KORONADAL City––EastWest Bank recently inaugurated its store here, which is considered the regional center of Region 12 and “an important hub of commercial, industrial and socio-economic activities in Mindanao.” The new store will make available to the city residents and agro-industrial businesses its range of savings, loans, investment and cash management products, to name a few. EastWest Bank branches are called “stores” because these serve the financial needs of customers with a complete line of products such as savings, loans, debit and prepaid cards, credit cards and investment products. They act as one-stop shops for the convenience of customers. “We continue to expand our network of stores nationwide and are indeed glad to be here in Koronadal City to serve the needs of our customers,” said EastWest Bank president & CEO Antonio C. Moncupa Jr. “Our goal in growing our store network is to reach customers not only in the metropolis but all throughout the country, including the Mindanao region. “The area being a center of commerce and trade in the province, we want to help its people and businesses to efficiently manage their savings and funds. We believe that when an area has a flourishing business environment, it translates to more job creation, which in turn improves the quality of people’s welfare,” Moncupa said. EastWest Bank Retail Banking Group head and EVP Gerardo Susmerano commented: “The success of our Koronadal store is due to the support of our clientele. Last year, we opened 123 stores, bringing our total network to 245, more than double the number of stores we opened in 2011. We are envisioning to further expand our total network to 350 to make banking truly convenient for our customers.” Koronadal is South Cotabato’s agro-industrial center and acts as catalyst for development particularly in the second district of the province. The city boasts of agribased resources and offers a favorable climate for more investments. EastWest Bank opened its doors to the public on August 1, 1994. The Bank is a subsidiary of the Filinvest Development Corporation (FDC), the publicly listed holding company of the Filinvest Group that evolved from a consumer business founded by Andrew L. Gotianun, Sr. in 1955.

Eating raw vegetables:
a ‘healing’ experience VIENTIANE, Laos––A plateful of raw mint, basil leaves, cabbage, sliced string beans and lime was served on my table ahead of the rice noodle (feu) soup that I ordered. Then small bowls of raw bean sprouts and suki, a sauce made of ground peanuts and garlic cooked in oil with a dash of chili powder, arrived before I finally got my noodle soup. It was my first day after arriving in Vientiane a month ago. My colleagues from the Vientiane Times, Pou and Samly, took me to a popular noodle restaurant here. I needed a heavy meal at the time, but eating those raw vegetables piqued my appetite. I already knew though that Lao people eat raw vegetables, either with noodle soup or any dish. Despite my strong desire to try everything they eat here, it was totally different when you’re about to actually do it. L ao people eat raw vegetables and leaves that we don’t usually eat in the Philippines, or at least in Davao City. They wrap dumplings with wild betel leaves aside from cabbage and lettuce. They eat raw morning glory,
string beans, broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, dragonbone beans and young leaves from mango trees. Some people also eat bergamot leaves, which are often cooked with fried meat or insects. Most Lao dishes contain raw garlic, along with other seasonings. The first time that I ate them, I was worried that my stomach couldn’t digest all those raw vegetables. I grew up thinking that meat and vegetables have to be cooked for good digestion and to kill the bacteria with the heat. Eating my first raw vegetables with a supposed “delicious” noodle meal was nostalgic—I felt like my mother was staring at me
when I was a kid, chiding, “Eat your vegetables!” As they say, “There’s always a first time.” But, after a month, I have been craving for raw vegetables every meal everyday. They really taste so good, especially if dipped in a variety of sauces or mixed as salads. I learned from reading online and health tips from friends in the medical field that eating raw vegetables allows one to consume more nutrients. They said cooking the vegetables destroys vital Plates of raw vegetables and suki to be eaten with rice nutrients and kills enzymes noodle soup.

Dr. Somchine Singharaj, head of Food and Drug Division of Vientiane Health Department, said folate, the form of folic acid in food, is essential for the brain and nervous system to function properly as it is needed for cellular growth and regeneration. The health expert said uncooked vegetables contain higher amounts of folic acid and antioxidants, including lycopene, beta-carotene, and vitamins C and E. Many varieties of tropical

fruits that are also rich in antioxidants and folic acid are sold in the streets here at reasonable prices. As a city girl, I badly need detoxification from the processed and junk foods I eat almost every single day for lack of time and creativity. Surely, I will need much folic acid! But, Singharaj said, you cannot get all the folic acid you need from food alone. If you badly lack folic acid and other nutrients, it is important to seek your doctor’s advice. But you may still want to experience Lao food while you can. You will not only re-
gain your sense of wellbeing while enjoying a calm and stress-free life in the countryside, but will also restore or reinforce your good health and youthfulness. With the way people here eat their vegetables, Laos is indeed “a place for healing.” •• (Lorie Ann Cascaro of MindaNews is a fellow of the FK Norway (Fredskorpset) exchange program in partnership with the Vietnam Forum of Environmental Journalists.

DENR trains soldiers on environmental laws, rules and regulations ILOILO City––Army soldiers, particularly troopers from the Philippine Army’s 61st Infantry (Thunder) Battalion (61IB) underwent a three-day training on environmental laws, rules and regulation conducted by the training staff from the Forest Resources Conservation Division of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENRP) regional office based here. The traning, which formally opened last June 05 and culminated on June 08, 2013, was held at the Headquarters of 61IB based at Camp Gen. Ceferino S. Carreon in Brgy. Libot, Calinog, Iloilo. Lt. Col. Christopher C. Sab-it, 61IB commander, said the undertaking was made possible through the collaborative efforts of command under the aegis of the 3rd Infantry (Spearhead) Division (3ID), Philippine
Army in cooperation with partner stakeholders from the DENR-6. Convergence of efforts anchored on the government’s goal of poverty reduction, food, security, climate change adaptation and mitigation. Sab-it said that pursuant to Executive Order No. 192, the 61IB directly involves the citizenry in the protection and conservation of the country’s environment and natural resources. He said the Executive Order likewise deputized soldiers as Deputy Environment and Natural Resources Officer (DENRO) to assist the DENR in the enforcement of laws, rules and regulations governing environment, forestlands, mineral lands, protected areas and other lands of public domain under the jurisdiction of the Department within the locality. Sab-it also said this
endeavor greatly helps the DENR as the government agency’s primarily responsible for the country’s environment and natural resources’ protection and conservation. It also aims to stop envi-

PNoy inaugurates Laguindingan airport PRESIDENT Benigno Aquino on Tuesday led the inauguration of the P 7.8 billion Laguindingan airport in San Isidro, Languindingan, Misamis Oriental. In his short message, the President expressed the optimism that the airport would spur development in the cities and provinces of Northern Mindanao. Aquino believed that Misamis Oriental and the neighboring prov- Cris Diaz inces in Northern Mindanao would largely benefit with the opening of the airport. He believed that the regional tourism industry would directly benefit, as more tourist would come. The construction of the 2.1-kilometre long, 45-meter wide Laguindingan airport was in accordance with internationally accepted airport standards. The airport’s floor areas were more than 7,000 square meters, thrice larger than the existing Lumbia Airport in Cagayan de Oro City. Its apron would be able to accommodate 300 aircrafts at a time. Certainly, the Laguindingan airport is one of the largest and most modern airports in the country today. The airport’s location is ideal for its construction on a flat terrain along the coastal areas of the Laguindingan that it is visible to the eye under cloudy skies. Officials at the Civil Aeronautics Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) said that the airport would start to accommodate commercial flights starting June 15, 2013. CAAP officials said that the flight in the airport would only be on a “visual landing system.” Thus the reason that the airport would operate only from six in the morning to six in the evening. Everybody at the CAAP and at the Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) rejoiced with the airport’s
opening and operation. In contrast, the business groups and private stakeholders in Northern Mindanao were hesitant. Since last year, the various business organizations did not welcome the operations of the airport pending installation of Instrument Landing System (ILS) and nighttime navigational facilities. Perhaps, this is one of the reasons that the local business groups were not visible during the inauguration rites Tuesday. The rest were public officials identified with the administration’s Liberal Party. The Ayalas were also present. Perhaps, the Ayala believed they were part owner of the airport since they donated 183 hectares to form part of the airport site. The Ayalas also acquired more land holdings around the airport whose acquisition triggered controversies among landowners in the area. Governor Oscar Moreno of Misamis Oriental was the Ayalas corporate counsel at the time. Actually, the Laguindingan airport was one of the flagship projects of former President Fidel V. Ramos. The Oro Chamber of Commerce and Industries in Cagayan de Oro drafted the rationale of the Cagayan de Oro-Iligan (CIC) that Ramos then approved. The economic zone extends toward the municipal town of Kolambugan in Lanao Del Norte. The South Korean government’s Export Import Bank (Eximbank) financed the construction of the airport, which also became a flagship project of former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. It was former Misamis Oriental Governor Vicente Emano who later became Mayor of Cagayan de Oro City who negotiated with the Eximbank for release of the loan that paved the way for the construction of the Laguindingan airport.

We need better than best
THANKS to Tito Mora of SULOG, (One Sendong is Enough), for bringing to fore the most important issue facing the Cagayan de Oro City Water District (COWD) today during the latter’s media conference last Friday. Mr. Mora asked COWD GM Rachel Beja how they were dealing with Non-Revenue Water (NRW). NRW refers to water produced or procured by COWD which are lost due to illegal connections, leaks and the like but are paid for by consumers just the same since this is included in the tariff computations. GM Beja replied that from a high of 59 percent, it is now averaging 52-54 percent. Good it’s been reduced, but as my good friend Ralph Abragan of
Hammer and Anvil Mike Baños Save CDO Movement puts it, “You did your best, but your best isn’t good enough.” In fairness, she admitted COWD can’t properly address the problem since its last programmed rate increase was disapproved two years ago. Ms. Beja claims addressing NRW is very capital intensive needing at least P500,000.00 for extensive pipe replacement and rehabilitation which was integrated into the proposed minimum
water rate increase from PhP 16 to PhP 21/cu.m. Since the rate adjustment was shelved, she admitted “it has been very difficult to address without a major capex.” Why is this issue relevant to the problem in the West Service Area? COWD assistant general manager for technical services Jong Batar said demand doubles between 6-8AM that even if demand is only 40,000 cu.m. a day and daily water supply
is 70,000 cu.m. consumers still have little or no water in some areas (60 percent of this water supply is sourced by bulk water supplier Rio Verde and 30,000 cu.m. by COWD’s 10 production wells in the area.) In his presentation, AGM Jong said unless Rio Verde delivers its mandated 40,000 cu.m. a day at the steady rate of 1,667 cu.m. per hour, COWD has trouble maintaining sufficient pressure on its 500 kms. of pipeline to ensure 24/7 water service. But we doing a little math with the NRW imputed raised questions: If 52 percent of the 70,000 cu.m. daily supply in the West Service Area is NRW, then COWD is only left with only 48 percent or 33,600 cu.m. to distribute BEST | page 8
Money and the law of cause and effect
Life is the sum total of all the decisions we’ve made in our lifetimes. Whatever we are now is the effect of all the things we’ve been doing since our birth into this earthly sojourn. So goes the law of cause and effect in a nutshell. There’s a logical and empowering corollary to this – the exact things that we are doing in our lives today can simultaneously be the reasons (or the causes) of what we can expect to happen in our lives tomorrow (the effects)! Each day is simply the sum total of all the finite 24 hours we have at our disposal. Seven days be-
The financial doctor Dr. Adonis Agcopra come one week, four weeks become one month, and a dozen months become an entire year. And for all we know, years have piled up and our lifetimes have gone by. We are finite beings and our time is limited. Being the most limited resource we have makes time no less than our most precious.
In life, being rich or poor is just relative. Comparing two different individuals will always make one richer than the other, for no two people are alike in everything. Describing someone as rich or poor is simply politics. Everyone is rich in his own right. It all depends on your basis of comparison – friends,
love, happiness, family ties, and a lot of others – not just money. A financially rich person has more accumulated assets of monetary value than others. A religious associate of mine once said, being materially “rich” is neither good nor bad. The morality lies in how your God-given assets are earned and used. Money indeed dictates power and control. But as the cliché goes, “With great power comes great responsibility.” Some people are a lot more materially blessed than others. We might ask ourselves what could be the reasons of them being so?

Freedom from what?
THE nation celebrates today Independence Day, which is actually a commemoration of the independence declared by Emilio Aguinaldo from the clutches of foreign invaders thus supposedly making the country an independent sovereign state. But let us remember that the independence declared by Aguinaldo that vested in us the rights of a sovereign nation was never recognized by any nation. You know, for a declaration of sovereignty to be effective, it must be recognized by a host of nations. Sadly, the Aguinaldo declaration was never accorded such recognition. That is why in 1946 the Americans gave us our independence for they never recognized us as a sovereign nation. But even with the granting of independence that year, many believed it was more of a ritual than factual because the Americans even up to today still act as the country’s invisible master. This fact is proved by America’s hand in the election even of our president up to today. While many of our politically uninitiated compatriots may not believe this, the presidential aspirants themselves seek the anointment or blessings of America to ensure their victory in the polls. This anointment/blessing-seeking act of our presidential aspirants could be likened to their act of lining up before the chief minister of the Iglesia ni Cristo or before the
A deeper view Jesse E.L. Bacon II “self-anointed son of God” himself, Apollo Quiboloy, for their endorsement. So we will be celebrating today freedom day. But the biggest question that remains to be answered is this: Freedom from what? The strangulation by foreign powers led by America of the Philippine economy is very real. This strangulation is currently achieved through globalization where trade between and among nations has been ordained to be without any boundary or limit. What does this mean? This means that foreign goods, manufactured and agricultural, should be allowed to flood in our domestic market at the least tariff at the moment and tariff-less in the near future. Goods and products are now free to move from one nation to another with the least restrictions and in some cases without any form of restriction at all. Under a global economy, we are pushed deeper into the quagmire of economic want because what goods and products can we sell outside of our territory? Even our local farmers are greatly affected by the
flooding of agricultural products directly competing with their produce. Noticeably, readily available in the local markets now are fruits and food spices such as ginger, garlic and even rice, our staple food, coming from abroad. This is because of globalization. But can we sell our malunggay abroad? Certainly not! So how can we compete in the global economy when we don’t have any good or product to sell abroad? Take for example our biggest export which is microchips. This particular export is being produced here by foreign companies who have located in our export processing zones to avail of the enumerable tax benefits we give them just to entice them to come here. Technically speaking, they are not our products but products of foreign companies doing business here. If we talk of exports, our only true and real exports are our professionals, skilled and non-skilled workers. They are the only genuine export that we have earning billions of US dollars to keep the Philippine economy afloat especially during hard
times. But this is one export that the government should not be proud about because it proves beyond doubt that the local economy is in shambles hence its inability to keep to work here these professionals, skilled and non-skilled workers. I just don’t know if the Aquino administration looks with pity the exportation of our human resources to far away lands to strengthen the local economy but in the process weaken the basic social institution which is the family. Without fear of contradiction, I’ll state here that the OFW program of the government will never strengthen us as a nation or improve the economy on a long term basis. If we are a nation that does not have any sense of being bound by one tie as such nation, it is because our sense of nationhood is fractured. Why? Because our families are loosely bound by that bond that strengthens the family as a result of our economic wants. What is so sad about all these things is that our neocolonizers, the modern-day invaders who do not physically occupy our nation as our masters but nonetheless still are our masters, are out to prevent us from becoming one nation with one purpose and with one goal which is to be a real nation. •• (Reactions at jelbacon@ yaqhoo.com or at jelbaconii@gmail.com)

This is the second death…” (Revelation 21:8, the Holy Bible). -oooPOWERFUL GROUP WA N T S A M A N UA L COUNT OF BALLOTS: There’s a buzz going around the country now that local politicians who lost during the May 13, 2013 elections notwithstanding the fact that they were fully supported by a powerful organization whose endorsement usually meant sure victory in the past have been told to ask for a manual count of the votes in their localities. I am told by my sources that leaders of the organization are itching for a manual count of the votes, to find out why the candidates it supported in some of the cities, towns and provinces of the country did not even get the number of votes that would equal the number of its members in those places. Yes, my sources said, the leaders are willing to concede that some of their members may have strayed
Kakampi mo ang batas Atty. Batas Mauricio away and voted for candidates who were not officially endorsed by the organization, but not in the magnitude that the May 13, 2013 election appeared to suggest. The impression is that, something fishy happened in the counting and canvassing and reporting of the votes, resulting in the vote of the members of the organization not having been counted at all. -ooo“WERE OUR VOTES COUNTED AT ALL?” I wonder how the top officials of the Commission on Elections, particularly Chairman Sixto Brillantes Jr. and his fellow commissioners, will react to this. Of course, Brillantes and his group can deny outright that the votes for the candidates who were supported by the powerful organization were manipulated or tampered with, to make them lose. Brillantes can say, as he
had been repeatedly saying in the past, that there were no such manipulations or tampering in any part of the country, and that the election results as announced by the Comelec were all truthful and genuine, and reflected the true will of the electorate. But then, sympathizers of the organization have a point: how come that the candidates it supported in some areas where its support traditionally and usually carried those candidates to victory because of the sheer number of its members therein inexplicably lost this time? It looked as if the organization’s political clout ---and its voting members---suddenly got lost in many areas, because of the way the results were proclaimed by the Comelec. -oooPOLITICAL CLOUT AND STRENGTH GONE? Viewed from this angle, I
can very well appreciate the concern of the organization in asking the candidates it supported but who lost just the same to do everything they can to find out what really happened. A credible explanation must be found, in view of the far-reaching implications that the results of the May 13, 2013 elections tend to show. The fact is that, if the truth about this issue is not credibly established, it could undermine the organization in many areas, since the elections of May 13, 2013 would seem to suggest that its endorsement could no longer materially affect future poll exercises in this country. Now, the question is, why would anyone be interested in undermining the organization and projecting an impression that its usual political clout and strength could no longer be depended upon, and that some other person (or persons) or entity (or entities) has (have) taken over that clout and strength among the people? -oooREACTIONS?

7 Biblical reflection Bro. Edcel L. Closas
Love your neighbor
Fresh Gospel of the day: Matthew5:17-19(June12, 2013-Wednesday) Matthew 5:17-19-Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. The statements of Jesus that “He never destroys the law of God” is “really true” since He taught us the essence of this laws. Matthew 19:16-24-And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? [there is] none good but one, [that is], God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and [thy] mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. In Matthew 22:37-40-Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt “love your neighbor as thyself.” On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Take note, we are reminded by Jesus to “teach these laws for us to be saved” and to become the “greatest in heaven.” Are you obeying God’s laws?

Jong said the disruption of water service in the west service area were caused by the intermittent supply from RVWCI to COWD due to problems arising from turbidity and power interruptions. But Rio Verde Vice President for Operations Joffrey Hapitan said in a text message from Leyte their plant can deal with all kinds of turbidity. He chose to operate when the raw water abstracted from the Bubunawan River was less turbid and costs less to process since they could still comply with the daily requirement of 40,000 cu.m. even if they did this. COWD management met with Rio Verde officials on April 24 and May 31 and have apparently solved the problem by increasing the volume of deliveries from Rio Verde since June 1st which has enabled them to deliver to COWD at the increased average rate of 2,000 cu.m. per hour. GM Beja said it would take a week for the situation to normalize in the entire Western Service Area but the supply from Rio Verde has been stabilized at a constant rate throughout the day enabling COWD to maintain delivery pressure in entire system.
EXTRAJUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF ESTATE WITH DIRECT SALE
Although the water crisis may have been arrested for the moment, it is important for us consumers to keep in mind two important facts about this latest altercation: 1) As a bulk water supplier, Rio Verde is akin to the National Power Corporation in the power industry responsible for delivering water to the COWD Offtake; and, 2) COWD would be like CEPALCO which is responsible for the distribution of power just like the former is responsible for distributing the water it produces and procures to its concessionaires. We share our good friend Ralph Abragan’s view on the issue which he expounded in a letter addressed to COWD: “We acknowledge the efforts of the management to explain to the public how services failed in some occasions before and presently and how they address it, but to us the consuming public couldn’t care less about such details and that the board of directors together with the top management obviously was not able to anticipate, much more prepare, in arresting possible failures related to the works of the whole system.” “We see no concrete master plan on how to curb system loss, connection theft, future immediate demand increments and much more EXTRA-JUDICIAL PARTITION

preventive maintenance to avoid service failures. Backup systems are clearly not defined, rescue initiatives not evident. “ “We view your efforts to be your best but unfortunately your best wasn’t good enough. The data you have accumulated over the years of operation are sufficient tools and references for your necessary study or analysis and that need not be the defining line of your shortcomings.” “On this light the public must be made satisfied, and participation of civil society and all other sectors must be given an outmost priority as taxpayers and stake holders of this failing institution.” COWD can call all the press conferences it wants to explain the problem with Rio Verde or NRW but it’s not going to solve the water supply problem. Consumers need solutions, not explanations. There seems to be a need for the COWD to revisit its mission and vision. Guided by this, an initiative to craft a master plan focused on the water equilibrium that will depict the future of the district for the next 25 years. A short, medium and long term development program aligned with the progressive development plan of the city and its stakeholders should be adopted to ensure a responsive, effective and efficient delivery of water services.

take this into account and persuade the city council and consumers it’s time to allow COWD to have that long delayed rate increase so NRW can be properly addressed. If after doing this, the water crisis remains, then we trust incoming Mayor Oca Moreno knows what’s best to do. Not the least, COWD can also consider outsourcing its anti-NRW initiatives considering how reducing and converting the losses into “cash” can finance the project on its own without burdening the consuming public. There are private firms which can finance the project without COWD spending a single centavo, no increase in water rate and allow the private sector to recover its investment over a period of time. Eventually, with the reduction of water losses, it will redound to the reduction of operational expense towards efficiency in operation that may lead even to the reduction of tariffs. Think about it…

so? How did they do it? By the law of cause and effect, everything has an exact cause and having a good grasp of these causes will lead us to their exact effects! If your means of earning now or the way you think about money seems to be leading you nowhere near having great financial well-being in the future, then it just might be time to reconsider your current game plan. Should you change tactics? Should you upgrade your skills to earn more? Should you seek to understand more investing strategies to help make your money work for you? Should you practice more discipline with handling money? More importantly, you might further ask: “Do I have to do it? Shall I do it? Should I do it? What reasons do I have for doing it?” You alone will decide, nobody else! For you become what you think about most of the time.

Rack up that good karma, as it may come in handy sooner than you think! TAURUS (April 20 – May 20) - You can see more deeply into other people’s souls today -- which may start to feel a little freaky after a while! Try not to worry too much about it, as things are sure to go better for you as a result. GEMINI (May 21 – June 21) - Today is all about clarity, so try to make sure that you’re speaking slowly and listening carefully to make sure that everyone is on the same page. You may be the key to communication once again. CANCER (June 22 – July 22) - You need to spend the day in productive pursuits -- but the good news is that what you want to do is more or less what you need to be doing. That’s rare, but you should be able to keep it up for a while!

the workers. FPPI did not comply with the order and instead hired other people to replace the terminated workers under a “cabo” scheme and “labor only contracting”. Since then, the terminated workers and their families have suffered from hunger owing to lack of livelihood, it said. At least 174 API workers lost their jobs when the firm closed shop on May 2, 2013. API submitted, as reason for terminating operation, the destruction caused by Typhoon “Pablo”. The company allegedly offered each worker an amount equivalent to 30 days per year of service. KMU said the offer was made in exchange for freeing API from re-hiring the workers when it resumes operation. Some 15 workers declined API’s offer while 70 casual workers had not received any payment despite having served API from 10 to 20 years, KMU said. KMU-Caraga stressed that API violated a Collective Bargaining Agreement between API and Pinagbuklod na Lakas ng Manggagawa sa Plantasyon ng API-National Federation of Labor Unions-Kilusang Mayo Uno (PIGLAS MAPAPI-NAFLU-KMU), signed in the presence of DOLE regional officials and NCMB on March 15, 2013. It said the CBA became effective from January 1, 2012 until December 31, 2016. KMU pointed out that FPPI and API’s moves have become widespread in Caraga where contractualization threatens some 1.2 million reserve and regular workers. Its studies showed that some mining companies in Surigao del Norte and palm oil plantations in Agusan del Sur implement contract hiring. For every 10 workers in the region, seven are under contract. The labor watchdog revealed that several firms in the region employ many

(OFWs). She emphasized that the absence of capital should not dissuade one from venturing into business because there are a lot of organizations that can lend capital. She disclosed that their real estate company was born out of a small gravel and sand business. “When Manny resigned from his job in 1975, he borrowed P10,000 from a bank and bought two second-hand trucks, which he used to deliver gravel and sand to real estate developers. With the help of God, coupled with sipag at tiyaga (perseverance and patience), our business grew until we became the biggest home builder in the country,” related Villar. “Senator Villar and I are living examples of what entrepreneurs can accomplish and achieve,” added Villar. Also known as “Misis Hanepbuhay”, Villar said she wants to review government’s incentives to businesses particularly to micro, small and medium enterprises as well as tax incentives to labor-intensive businesses that generate more employment to Filipinos such as manufacturing, and agriculture.

here on June 11, KMUCaraga issued a statement that the two palm oil firms fired the workers to fully implement labor contractualization in the region. Under the system, “huge profits will be squeezed by the business firms from the workers,” it said. According to the statement, FPPI workers staged a strike on November 27, 2012 to January 18, 2013 demanding the reinstatement of 293 terminated workers. It said, DOLE took jurisdiction of the case and ordered FPPI to reinstate

forms of hiring workers that result in labor abuse. On this score, KMUCaraga said it strongly opposed DOLE’s Order No. 18-A dated November 14, 2011 allowing contract hiring in private companies with regular workers and union members as fronts. It said the order was in violation of the Labor Law as it denied the workers’ security of tenure and their
rights and the business firms’ responsibility. It added that the scheme ran counter with the 1987 Philippine Constitution which provides for the primacy of the interest of labor. It further said that DO 18 will be used by capital to feast on the lowly paid workers, their lack of benefits due to contract hiring as well as their right to form and join unions. (PS/OS/asf)
