P34 billion mulled for Mindanao infra in 2014 By Rudolf Ian G. Alama
DAVAO CITY -- Mindanao is being eyed to have an infrastructure allocation of P34.29billion this 2014. This according to Pre si d ent B en i g n o Aquino III during his speech at the 22nd Mindanao Business Conference (Minbizcon) held today at the SMX Convention Center in Davao City. “For 2014 alone, we are
proposing to the congress that the DPWH is set to allocate another 34.29 billion pesos for projects in the region,” the President said in his speech. The chief executive noted that for 2011-2013 the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has allocated P61.54-billion for roads, bridges and other infrastructure projects in Mindanao. He enumerated other high-level projects currently being accomplished in the region, which include the Lake Lanao Circumferential Road Project worth P767-million pesos, which will be completed in February 2015. Aside from roads, the government is also rehabilitating 15 airports and 46 ports. According to the President the goal is to see a Mindanao economy no longer stifled by a lack of proper roads, ports, or airports. In one of the issues raised by Mindanao business leaders during the regular consultations held before this year’s Minbiz-
con, they have asked for more infrastructure projects in the region which could help them prepare for the incoming ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Integration by 2015. The integration will combine the ASEAN member-states into one single market economy. “The vision here is also to create a Mindanao that can compete within the ASEAN community—this is a vision that, with government and private sector initiatives, as well as continuing solidarity, can surely be achieved; and we believe our projects are doing precisely that,” the President said. President Aquino is the first chief executive to attend the biennial gathering of business leaders, government officials and other stakeholders in Mindanao. (PIA/RG Alama)

You will not be in Mindanao affected not only the way of peace that will the immediate areas in Minhelp fulfill the potentials danao, but the rest of the country as well. The President expressed sympathy to the families of the victims of the blasts. During the press briefing, the President identified the Abu Sayyaf Group as one of the groups disrupting the peace and order in Mindanao.
He said government forces continue to conduct operations against this group, citing successes in the effort with the neutralization of Dr. Abu in 2012. He disclosed rewards will be given to individuals who can provide information that will lead to the arrests of the perpetrators behind the bombings in Cagayan de Oro and Cotabato City. Aquino said one of the angles being pursued is the possible involvement of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) in the blasts to lessen the ongoing follow-up military operation against them. "Mayroon tayong tinitingnang tatlong threat groups na tila nagsamasama dahil may pagkadesperado para mahadlangan itong usaping pangkapayapaan. (There are threat groups which are aligning themselves because, to a large degree, their capacities
have been diminished. We are looking at three loose groups that have banded together and are desperate to stop our peace process here in Mindanao)," Aquino said. Aquino has tasked the security sector to continue hardening security. In his assessment, he said terror groups exploit freedom and other rights guaranteed in the constitution like movement, assembly and the like. These groups, the President said, had long been wanting to conduct terror attacks. Aquino said that there are persistent reports that the terror groups want to hit Davao. However, he observed, terrorists seem to evade Davao City attributing to the tight security and the good governance of the city government. “It is a good deterrent.
However, wherever we do target hardening, terror groups also look for other soft targets,” Aquino said. He appealed to the citizens to cooperate as force-multipliers of the security service by providing information in detecting suspicious individuals or activities. Earlier, Mayor Rodrigo Duterte mulled of scrapping the Kadayawan Festival for security reasons. He gave the security sector up to August 13 to come up with a clearer picture of the security situation of the city. “We will proceed with the festivities if the security forces with a rating of 7.5 in a scale of one to 10, can guarantee the safety of the residents and visitors,” Duterte said. He cited the primacy of the lives of the residents for the possible cancellation of the Kadayawan Festival. (RGA/JSD/PIA 11)

BFAR linked with local government units of the provinces of Davao del Norte, Davao Oriental, Davao del Sur and Compostela Valley and the municipalities therein to complete the registration of fisherfolks by using simplified forms and by setting up the Comprehensive Fishery Information System. Included in those whom BFAR referred to as fisherfolks are those directly drawing their source of income from, and making a living out of fishing. The fishworkers as well as the
fishery operators are also considered as fisherfolks. “Ito ay tumutukoy sa lahat ng taong nakatuon sa panghuhuli, pag-aalaga, pagpoproseso, pagbebenta at pagbibiyahe ng isda at iba pang produktong pantubi. (This refers to people who are into catching, producing, processing, selling and delivering fish and other aquatic and marine products.),” BFAR said in describing fisherfolks. Idris assured fisherfolks to avail of government assistances and services due them especially when they get duly and officially registered. To get registered, Idris urged fisherfolks to go to their Barangay Captains for assistance and to approach fishery technicians who
are facilitating registry of fisherfolks. The Municipal Agriculture Office (MAO) is also open to assist fisherfolks registered under Fish R. Meanwhile, she called on LGUs to complete the data on fisherfolk registration as the Department of Agriculture and BFAR will be giving reward to LGUs which can submit soonest their complete registry of fisherfolks. BFAR revealed in a news release that Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala earlier announced a reward of P2 million worth of livelihood projects for fisherfolk communities, given to the first 100 municipal LGUs which would be able to complete their registration of fisherfolk.

MANILA -- After successfully coming to terms on the revenue generation and wealth sharing annex of the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro (FAB), President Benigno S. Aquino III said the Government of the Republic of the Philippines (GPH) and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) peace panels will start working on power sharing and normalization annexes after Ramadan. In an interview with the media after attending the opening program of the 22nd Mindanao Business Conference (MinBizCon) 2013 held at the SMX Convention Center, 3rd Level, SM Lanang Premier, Lanang, Davao City on Thursday, the Chief Executive said the members of the GPH and MILF peace panels have now set their sights on agreeing on the last two remaining annexes of the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro which is power sharing and normalization. "Itong patapos na ang Ramadan – ang susunod na pag-uusapan ay ang powersharing at ang normalization. Ano ba ang mga powers na ide-devolve doon sa
bagong gobyerno ng ARMM at iyong tinatawag na normalization, ang pagbaba ng armas," the President Aquino said. "Sa Congress, I understand, there is widespread support but, of course, everybody wants to look at the details of the proposed Organic Act. Ang Transition Commission ang nagdadraft nitong proposed new measure to replace the current ARMM organic act," the President said. The wealth-sharing annex was signed by both parties after concluding the 38th series of exploratory talks in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia last July. In a joint statement released by both panels, the
GPH and MILF said the wealth-sharing annex will “provide sufficient guidance for the crafting of the Bangsamor Basic Law’s provision on wealth sharing and revenue generation for the Bangsamoro as envisioned by the Framework Agreement. The Parties believe that the Annex on Wealth Sharing, which forms part of the Framework Agreement, will provide sufficient guidance for the crafting of the Bangsamoro Basic Law’s provisions on wealth sharing and revenue generation for the Bangsamoro as envisioned by the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro.

Bawal ang epal dito campaign readied for barangay election The Department of Social Welfare and Development is preparing itself for the upcoming Barangay Elections in October through the "Bawal ang Epal Dito" Campaign. Its "Bawal Ang Epal Dito"
Campaign has been proven effective in empowering the beneficiaries of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, particularly during the midterm elections last May 2013. In the campaign, beneficiaries were thoroughly informed that the anti-poverty program of the Department of Social Welfare and Development is developed, initiated, and implemented by the said agency and that the latter can solely de-list beneficiaries based on their non-compliance to the program's set conditions. Contrary to some politicians' alleged pronouncement that they can de-list beneficiaries if they will not vote for the running candidate, the DSWD is emphatic that no politicians can do so since the agency alone, at the regional and national levels,
can de-list the beneficiaries from the program. With the coming barangay elections, it is once again empowering the Pantawid Pamilya beneficiaries to be vigilant of any political threats of being de-listed and be responsible in complying to the conditions of the program: to ensure attendance of their children to school, to regularly bring them to a monthly health check-up, and attend in the Family Development Sessions conducted by the DSWD. The Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program invests in human capital by providing cash grants to poor families with children aged 0-14 for their education and health. Written by Charmaine P.

Use of plastic products, an ecological nightmare THERE IS ONLY ONE reason why the use of plastic bags, plates, utensils and cups and Styrofoam containers has become widespread – CONVENIENCE to make people’s everyday lives easier. At first, plastic materials seemed harmless, but later on, the modern world found these nonbiodegradable objects difficult to dispose, and hard to eradicate. These plastic products usually turn up in canals and esteros, riverbanks, sea coasts, and other bodies of water, clogging sewage systems and drainage pipes. Eventually it is the main cause of massive flooding when rains and typhoons come. For the past decade, the international community has been trying to cut down on the use of plastic products and Styrofoam containers to avert ecological and environmental disasters. Mindanao cities should not wait
to become Metro Manila, before we stop using plastic products. In Makati, the use of plastic and Styrofoam are now forbidden. Stores use paper bags to wrap sold items as a city ordinance forbids the use of plastic. It is about time that each one of us should stop using plastic products, and our local governments should pass respectively a law banning the use of plastic products. This will ensure our early solution to the problems that affect ecological balance and safeguard our environment from unnecessary destruction of its ecosystem. Already, legislators are proposing the “Plastic Bag Regulation Act of 2013,” which requires commercial establishments to provide biodegradable plastic bags to their consumers provided that they shall promote and make available for sale locally made bayong, buli and other reusable bags

It also urges store to use local reusable bags for consumers when they surrender old plastic bags. We should support this Bill and help stop the production, importation, sale, and distribution of plastic bags and wrappers. Foremost, the Local Government Units (LGUs) should enforce ordinances to decrease the percentage of plastic bag wastes produced within their communities, and should be tasked to collect, transport, recycle and dispose all plastic bags recovered by the stores.

general and their people’s organizations or associations in particular the right to literally meddle in all aspects of governance, which provision many call the `people power provision’. “This provision, found under Section 16, Art. 13 of the Constitution, reads: `The right of the people and their organizations to effective and reasonable participation at all levels of social, political, and economic decision-making shall not be abridged. The State shall, by law, facilitate the establishment of adequate consultation mechanisms…’ “If we don’t watch out, any disgruntled Juan Dela Cruz will one day say that he is ousting our duly-elected officials, and is taking over the government, pursuant to his Constitutionallygiven right to `effective and reasonable participation at all levels of social, political and economic decision making…’ -oooCHARTER CHANGE IS NOW NECESSARY: “As anyone of us can see, these provisions can threaten the very survival and stability not only of government but of the nation as well, as they in fact encourage almost all sectors of society to fight the authorities. “This is the reason why I have been suggesting all along that the time has come for the Constitution to be amended, revised or even totally changed. We must remove these deleterious provisions from our basic law so that our country and our people can really start moving forward to claim its rightful place under the sun.
“As it is, since the foregoing Constitutional provisions encourage fighting the government, they even invite God’s curses upon all Filipinos, pursuant to what Romans 13:1-2 of the Holy Bible is saying: do not fight government and its officials, for there is no government that God did not establish, and anyone fighting what God established is fighting God Himself and will receive punishment.” -oooREACTIONS?

Worry... from page 6
enough trouble of its own. So “At night, give your worries to God. He’s up all night anyway!” Fear and worry is kind of like a rocking chair: it keeps you going, but you don’t get anywhere! And if you can’t help worrying, remember that worrying can’t help you either. Fear will often find proof for itself. If you’re fearful, you’ll find something to be fearful about. That’s why the American President, Franklin Roosevelt, said: “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” Many of us are afraid of what others think; but if we knew how seldom they actually think about us, we’d know not to worry. So whatever you’re afraid of or worrying about, ask yourself: Is it real? And if it is real, how will worrying about it help you? How long will it last? Is it

Love... from page 6
His Father gave. This kind of love has the willingness to die for the people whom He loved. Jesus showed kindness to all. He went about doing good to everyone without partiality. He did not covet what others had, living a humble life without complaining. He did not brag about who He was in the flesh, although He could have overpowered anyone He ever came in contact with. The very first Bible verse that I learned to memorize when I was in grade school was John 3:16, “For God
Karong Agosto. 20, 2013 sa alas 10:00 sa buntag ang among ahensya magbaligya pinaagi sa Subasta sa tanang Prenda nga wala malukat hangtud sa Bulan sa Pebrero 1-28, 2013 gihangyo ang tanang mga suki sa Pagsusi sa ilang resibo.
so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” .We can see from this verse that it is God’s greatest desire that we join Him in His eternal home, heaven. He has made the way possible by paying the price for our sins. He loves us because He chose to as an act of His will. Love is not love until one demonstrates it. To show it to others, we need to experience God and His unconditional love. It takes time though for love to nurture. Real love grows as days pass by. Like husbands and wives, love should grow irrespective whether the other one’s skin wrinkles or the body smells. Real love does not fluctuate. Love is an attribute of God. Everything God does is loving, just as everything He does is just and right. God is the perfect example of true love. Amazingly, God has given those who receive His Son Jesus as their personal Savior the ability to love as He does, through the works of the Holy Spirit.

something you can change? If not, how can you best accept and handle it? Then finally ask yourself: How important will this be a year from now? Will it be important to me at the end of my life? Today, why not give your life, and all its worries, to Jesus Christ? Ask Him to take charge. Then you’ll know that after you’ve done your best, He’ll always take care of the rest. Just Think a Minute.

The Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) on Tuesday last week has formally charged Usman Hapids and five other suspects with multiple murder and frustrated murder in the bomb blast at the Rosario Arcade in the Limketkai Center here last July 26. Macuayag said that he has given the three-man panel of prosecutors one month to come out with a resolution whether a sufficient evidence would warrant the city prosecutor’s office to issue a warrant of arrest against Hapids and the other suspects. He said that the prosecution has already subpoenaed five witnesses who have executed an affidavit pointing to Hapids as the same person caught in the closed circuit television cameras installed at Kyla’s Bistro in the Rosario Arcade at the Limketkai Center here. Macauyag said that the description of the computer generated profile of the suspects allegedly matches with the picture of Usman Hapids taken by intelligence operatives. According to Macauyag, the prosecution wants Usman Hapids to come out in order to answer the charges levelled against him.

“He (Usman) should come out to clear his name otherwise the prosecution would indict him as charge with multiple murder and f r ust rate d,” Mac auyag added. He said that the prosecution has subpoenaed the witnesses to ascertain the identity and participation of Usman Hapids and several others being the suspect(s) alluded to in the bomb blast in the Limketkai Center here. “The prosecution wants to be accurate in identifying the suspects in the Cagayan de Oro bombing otherwise we (prosecution) would be indicting the wrong people,” Macauyag added. City Councilor Ramon Tabor, chair of the city council’s police, security, and public safety, said that indicting the wrong guy would, the more, put the city in bad light making it hard for the city to get its feet back on the ground. “My initial evaluation is that if the evidence submitted to us is not rebutted, then it would be enough for the prosecution to indict Mr. Usman Hapids,” Macauyag added. Last week, Kyla’s Bistro started to pack up things and belongings indicating that the management of the “bistro” bar would be closing their establishment while other adjoining restaurants and coffee shops might follow suit after business in the area dwindled due to the tragic incident. Sources closed to MINDANAO DAILY NEWS disclosed that the Limketkai management might strongly recommend the closure of other coffee shops in the area to forget the carnage that blackened the memory of Limketkai Center as a symbol of the city’s bustling economy. On July 26, a powerful bomb exploded just outside the entrance of Kyla’s Bistro at the Rosario Arcade here leaving eight people killed and wounding 44 others, the worst in recent years as the city was in the thick of preparing for the annual fiesta celebration in August.

explosion. Initial investigation showed the fire started in one of the stalls of the twostory building and rapidly spread when the stocks of firecracker and pyrotechnic products caught fire and exploded. The occupants of the building include an outlet of feed products, a bakeshop, a motorcycle display center, a massage parlor, an outlet of lechon manok, a flower shop and the fireworks store, according to the police. The incident was jointly investigated by the ZCFD and the local police. Zabala said on Saturday that they have yet to ascertain the origin of the fire. Aside from the two-story building, several vehicles parked in front of the establishment were also destroyed, as well as some nearby establishments to include a bank due to the impact of the firecrackers and pyrotechnics explosion.

Jose Budiongan, manager of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) here, said that the driver of the car did not ask permission to park the car at the airport here prompting security officials to be suspicious. He said a proper documentation is needed before anybody could leave a car at the LA airport here since leaving the vehicle at the parking lot for days is not authorized. Budiongan said that the owner or driver of the vehicle would still be subject of investigation when he comes back. CRIS DIAZ, EXEC. EDITOR, Mindanao Daily News

Promises are made to be broken Special Gospel of the day: Matthew5:3337(August10, 2013-Saturday) Matthew 5:33-37-Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths: But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne: Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King. Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black. But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil: Saying says, “promises are made to be broken.” There are many people in our society who are liars because they never fulfill their promises. This scenario is always done in “borrowing money and in lending company.” In fact, “many establishments are closed and bankrupt due to broken promises.” Do you have loans and borrowed money? How many times that you made a promise to your neighbors? In Sirach 29:4-5-“debts must be paid” instead of making any promises to avoid sins. In James 5:12-But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and [your] nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation. Take note, we have no right to make any promises supposed to be, because we don’t know our tomorrow. In Jeremiah 10:23-O LORD, I know that the way of man [is] not in himself: [it is] not in man that walketh to direct his steps. “Just pray to God to make all plans come true.” SPONSORED:Neneth - Bobong Balino- Dr. Edith, PhD- Tony Jordan - CDO.
