Mindanao reels under COVID OCTA urges gov’t to reinforce frontliners as surge likely to last a month By Willie Casas
A
N INDEPENDENT group of researchers on Wednesday urged the government to send health workers and equipment to Mindanao, which is fighting a surge in COVID-19 cases that they say could last a month.
OCTA Research fellow Guido David said areas reporting an increase in infections include Davao City, South Cotabato, General Santos City and Cotabato City. “This is very concerning because some local government units in Mindanao have high hosp;ital utilization rate, hospital

THE United States government has lowered its travel alert for the Philippines from Level 4 to 3. In an advisory posted on June 8, the US State Department advised Americans to still reconsider travel to the country due to "high level" of COVID-19. Under Level 3, US citizens are encouraged to get fully vaccinated before travel, while those unvaccinated travelers were told to avoid non-essential travel. In April, Americans were advised against all travel to the Philippines after the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention raised to "Level 4: Very High" its COVID-19 advisory for the country, the highest of its pandemic warnings. America's "do not travel" notice, meanwhile, remains in place in Marawi City and the Sulu archipelago, including the southern Sulu Sea due to crime, terrorism, civil unrest, and kidnapping. A "reconsider travel" warning also covers other parts of Mindanao. "The Philippine government maintains a state of emergency and greater

FRANCE’S MACRON SLAPPED IN FACE
Palace now floats Go-Duterte tandem By Vito Barcelo and Macon Ramos-Araneta PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte’s former aide Senator Christopher Go will definitely run for president in the 2022 national elections should the President decide to run for vice president, Malacanang said. Presidential spokesman Harry Roque said that should a Go-Duterte tandem push through, Presidential daughter Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio would never run against Go. In a television interview, Roque said that Duterte might decide to reinforce his political plan in December since he was still fo-
cused on beating the COVID 19 crisis. But Go said there would be no "face off" between Duterte-Carpio and himself, with the former standing pat that he would not seek the presidency – the two of them among possible contenders in next year's presidential elections. Go has repeatedly insisted he did not have any plan to run for president in 2022 but added he "would leave his fate to God" if President Duterte asked him to be his running mate. Several sectors, including his own PDP-Laban Party, are pushing for Duterte to run for vice president. Roque earlier said the President Next page

Rody, Xi vow ‘win-win cooperation’ A
"WIN-WIN cooperation" between the Philippines and China would ensure "greater peace, progress, and prosperity" between the 2 countries, President Rodrigo Duterte and his counterpart Xi Jinping said Wednesday. Duterte said the 46th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two sides this year "reminds us of the deep and abiding friendship between the Filipino-Chinese peoples." Xi, meanwhile, has committed to advance relations and achieve "greater winwin results" with the Philippines in a let-
ter addressed to Duterte. Xi said China and the Philippines are "friendly neighbors with time-honored friendship." "In recent years, with concerted efforts of both sides, China-Philippines relations have maintained health and stable development, bringing tangible benefits to our
two peoples," the Chinese leader wrote. "I attach great significance to the development of China-Philippines relations, and stand ready to work with you in guiding our bilateral relations to move forward in a sustained and steady manner, so as to achieve greater win-win results and mutual benefits," he added. Duterte has pursued friendly ties with China despite Beijing's continuing incursions within Philippine territory, as the two countries are locked in a dispute over resource-rich West Philippine Sea. "It is a bond that predates, by centuries, the formal establishment of diplomatic relations 46 years ago," Duterte

City was considered the new epicenter of COVID-19 in the Philippines. "Davao City is not an epicenter," Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said in a statement. "We discourage the use of the term 'epicenter' in describing the rise of cases in an area," she said. Epidemic epicenters are "meant to connote the area as a hotspot for the infection but may be interpreted by some to refer to an area as the source of the infection,” Vergeire said. "Using the term 'epicenter' detracts from other surrounding areas, which may be equally or more affected by COVID-19," she said. Malacañang said it was "unfair" to compare the COVID-19 situation in President Rodrigo Duterte's hometown and Quezon City. The biggest COVID-19 referral center in Mindanao will be increasing its bed capacity for coronavirus cases as it reached 92 percent utilization rate, the DOH in the Davao region said on
Wednesday. The Southern Philippines Medical Center in Davao City will increase its COVID-19 bed capacity to 600 from 408, said DOH-Davao regional director Dr. Annabelle Yumang. Another hospital, the Davao Regional Medical Center in Tagum City, will also raise the number of its virus beds to 288 from 188, she added. Yumang said Davao City's health care utilization rate is considered a "moderate risk" at 65.6 percent, while region-wide it was "low risk" at 57.7 percent. She said they also augmented the number of nurses in private hospitals. Davao City, President Rodrigo Duterte's hometown, had 2,683 active cases as of Tuesday, Yumang said. Yumang said the region's "aggressive" COVID-19 testing and mass gatherings might have caused the increase in virus cases. Meanwhile, the DOH said Calabarzon’s cases are trending down despite its lead in the number of daily average
cases nationwide. Dr. Paula Paz Sydiongco, head of DOH-Center for Health Development in Calabarzon, the region recorded 821 new infections on Tuesday, taking its total virus cases to 173,118. “Based on the cases we recorded on June 8, the trend is declining but the public must continue to observe minimum health standards,” Sydiongco said in Filipino in an interview with ABSCBN's Teleradyo. Cavite has seen a high number of new infections because of intensified contact tracing, with 15 persons being traced per virus patient and its governor setting up a quota for RT-PCR laboratories, said Sydiongco. Provincial health director Dr. Rene Bagamasbad said Laguna's rise in COVID-19 cases are due to the mobility of people, most of whom work in Metro Manila and nearby provinces. “When they return here, they're already sick and this results in clustering in households,” he said.
“If government will stick to the plan, we will have some good news by September, October as far as containment is concerned and if we work really hard together… we will have a better Christmas definitely,” he said. Rye likewise urged the public to avoid being complacent when it comes to health protocols against COVID-19. “While the vaccination program is being rolled out and the percentage of vaccinated individuals is still low, we are vulnerable to surges and outbreaks which is why we need to continue being vigilant,” he said. Manipulation denied The Department of Health on Wednesday once again denied manipulating its daily COVID-19 data, as they vowed transparency in giving out information, the health department’s chief epidemiologist said Wednesday. According to DOH Epidemiology Bureau director Dr. Alethea De Guz-
man, the public was free to analyze COVID-19 data, which is downloadable from the agency’s website. “We are uploading, on a daily basis, anonymized case line lists… it’s one way for the DOH to ensure [that] we’re not hiding anything. We’re transparent,” she said in an online forum hosted by consulting firm Blueprint.PH. “If you see something wrong with the data, here’s the data drop. You can check it. If you see inconsistency, please report it to us. We’ll be more than happy to address it and to check,” De Guzman said. De Guzman admitted that the DOH’s data quality at the start of the pandemic was “poor” and attributed it to the varying capacities of epidemiology and surveillance units. 'Population protection' The Philippines will achieve "population protection" in Metro Manila and
eight other key economic hubs, Malacañang said Wednesday, after Manila Mayor Isko Moreno said herd immunity could not be achieved this year. The Philippine government aims to vaccinate 500,000 people daily in NCR+8 to achieve herd immunity by November 27, vaccine czar Secretary Carlito Galvez Jr earlier said. Health Undersecretary Myrna Cabotaje, however, has said the Philippines is now eyeing “population protection” against the novel coronavirus before the end of the year. “We are shifting to the term 'population protection' through mass immunization kasi po iyong ating herd immunity, marami pong mga kaakibat na mga criteria,” Cabotaje said during a televised public briefing. “Herd immunity” usually refers to continuous protection, said Cabotaje, who is chairperson of the National Vaccinations Operations Center.
"A new step will be taken" on Wednesday, President Emmanuel Macron wrote on Twitter, when people in France will be able to enjoy outdoor dining and stay out until 11 p.m. "Life will resume across our lands." If all goes to plan, French authorities will drop the overnight curfew entirely on June 30. In virtually all of France, however, masks remain obligatory even outdoors. Belgium will also relax restrictions, allowing cafes and restaurants to serve indoors. Prime Minister Alexander De Croo announced longer operating hours for businesses and easing of restrictions on sports venues and cinemas. European nations are ramping up vaccinations as they try to strike a balance between public health and reviving sectors such as tourism that were devastated by pandemic travel restrictions. The hopeful outlook in Europe is a far cry from the early days of the pandemic, when it was one of the worst-hit regions in the world. The impact of that phase was visible in the world's most livable cities list released Wednesday, which saw cities in Australia, Japan and New Zealand -- all with swift coronavirus responses – leaping ahead of those in Europe.

Rights... football player by an IED planted by the New People’s Army shows the terrible threat such weapons pose to all civilians,” Conde said. “Those responsible are subject to criminal prosecution not just in the Philippines but in courts around the world.” College football player Kieth Absalon, 21, and his relative Nolven, 40, were killed in the bomb and gun attack carried out by the NPA on Sunday. Nolven’s 16-year-old son also suffered injuries from the explosion. The Communist Party of the Philippines and its armed wing, the New People's Army, on Tuesday took "full responsibility" for the IED blast in Masbate City last Sunday. The CPP in a statement expressed their "deep remorse", saying the incident was a result of "errors in the military action mounted by an NPA unit in Barangay Anas." "The entire CPP and NPA take full responsibility for the tragedy. There is no justification for the aggravation this has caused the Absalon family," the communist group said. Meanwhile, Commission on Human Rights spokesperson Jacqueline de Guia
condemned the attack. “The use of anti-personnel landmines is a violation of the International Humanitarian Law (IHL),” De Guia said in a statement. “Not only do they cause exceptionally severe injuries, suffering, and death, [but] antipersonnel landmines also fail to distinguish between civilians and combatants, such as what happened in this case,” she said. She said that even non-state entities such as the NPA “are bound to respect IHL, alongside the government.” The Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) both have announced that they were conducting a manhunt for the suspects behind the blast. On Tuesday, three alleged members of the NPA who were suspects in the bomb attack were killed during pursuit operations conducted by government forces. According to Absalon’s death certificate, he and his cousin died not just from the landmine explosion but from gunshot wounds. ABS-CBN, which obtained a copy of the death certificate, said the place of death was listed as Barangay Anas, Masbate, the site where the IED planted by communist rebels exploded Sunday morning.

posed remarks of Pacquiao that the Chief Executive had softened his stance on the disputed waters of the West Philippine Seas compared to when he was running for the presidency. Pacquiao said he believed firmly that his statement on the WPS reflected the sentiment of the majority of the Filipinos that “we should stand strong in protecting our sovereign rights while pursuing a peaceful and diplomatic solution to the dispute.” • Armed Forces of the Philippines Chief of Staff Gen. Cirilito Sobejana, visited Pag-asa Island on Monday to uplift the morale and commend the efforts of military personnel securing its community and other areas within the Kalayaan Island Group (KIG) in the West Philippine Sea. “The AFP will strike a balance between mission accomplishments and looking after the morale and welfare of our men and women,” Sobejana said in a statement Wednesday as he addressed
personnel manning the Naval Station Emilio Liwanag in Pag-asa Island. • Newly-appointed Philippine Navy flag-officer-in-command Rear Adm. Adeluis Bordado pledged to continue all the programs and projects initiated by his predecessor, Vice Adm. Giovanni Carlo Bacordo, to sustain the development of the naval service. “For the PN to sustain its organizational development and modernization path, it is my responsibility to continue what our outgoing FOIC, Vice Adm. Giovanni Bacordo, and his predecessors have already started," Bordado said in his assumptionof-command speech at the PN headquarters in Manila late Tuesday afternoon. In a statement, the Department of Foreign Affairs revealed that the ASEAN foreign ministers reiterated commitment for the full implementation of the 2002 Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC). They also agreed to resume “the mo-
mentum of negotiations” for a Code of Conduct in the South China Sea (COC), which were earlier affected by travel restrictions caused by COVID-19. The code will determine the only allowable actions countries can take in the South China Sea, they said. “Sec. Locsin appealed for full support and sincere cooperation to achieve our collective aspiration for the South China Sea to be a sea of peace, security, stability and prosperity; not a moat between the members of the family of Southeast Asian nations but a wide watery highway for trade and connection,” the DFA said.

The government’s goal is to vaccinate at least 58 million people in COVID-19 hotspots by November this year. “The number of vaccinated individuals nationwide is so low,” Rye said. “We need something like 30 percent to 50 percent to see significant changes in the trends as far as the epidemic is concerned,” he added. The DOH earlier said experts also wanted to see at least 30 percent of the population vaccinated before restrictions are loosened for individuals who have completed their doses. Rye urged the government to stay “eagle eyed” in the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, especially in inoculating residents of Metro Manila and neighboring provinces where COVID-19 cases are high.

"Terrorist and armed groups continue to conduct kidnappings, bombings, and other attacks targeting US citizens, foreigners, civilians, local government institutions, and security forces," it added. Meanwhile, France and Belgium further relaxed their COVID-19 restrictions Wednesday, allowing restaurants and cafes to serve indoors. The pandemic's impact on life around the planet was also illustrated Wednesday with a shake-up of the list of the world's most livable cities, with Auckland rocketing to the top on the back of New Zealand's successful coronavirus response. With more than 3.7 million lives lost globally, many nations are still struggling to contain their coronavirus outbreaks, but the rapid vaccine rollout in wealthier parts of the world such as Europe is allowing the return of some activities considered unthinkable just a few months ago.

Macron slapped in the face while greeting crowd TAIN-L'HERMITAGE, France— French President Emmanuel Macron was slapped in the face while greeting a crowd in southeast France on Tuesday, in a shock incident he shrugged off as "isolated" but which drew widespread condemnation in a tense political climate. Video footage on social media shows Macron shaking hands with voters when a man in a green t-shirt takes hold of his forearm and slaps him. Someone can be heard in the video shouting an old French royalist battle cry, and "Down with Macronism". Macron's bodyguards quickly intervened and two people were detained after the incident in the village of Tain l'Hermitage, local officials said. Two 28-year-old men living in the region are being questioned, said local prosecutor Alex Perrin. But "at this stage of questioning, their motives remain unknown". The incident took place in a tense and increasingly polarised political climate in France, weeks ahead of regional elections and less than a year before presidential polls.

SC acquits ‘killer’ of traffic enforcer, flips CA ruling THE Supreme Court (SC) has reversed the conviction of a man found guilty for the death of an enforcer of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) in 2014. Mark Ian Libunao was acquitted by the SC's First Division, which said it cannot be proven by a lone witness that he caused the death of MMDA enforcer Sonny Acosta during an altercation along Edsa in Cubao on Dec. 18, 2014. Five days later, Acosta died of injuries after he was dragged by the vehicle of Libunao, who was flagged down for using the bus lane. In a 14-page resolution recently published online, the SC reversed the Court of Appeals ruling and said the identity of the driver behind the wheel had not been proved beyond reasonable doubt. The court said it was highly improbable that the prosecution witness, bus barker Rommel Montipio, who was standing five feet away could have seen the driver of the vehicle "when the same was tinted and his position was oblique from the driver side of the car".

If he (Duterte) runs for vice president, it’s a certainty Senator Bong Go will run for presidency,” Roque said. Meanwhile, Roque said that should Sara decide to run and win the presidency, there is no “political dynasty” for Duterte considering her father, President Duterte had made known his wishes for his daughter not to run. “If Mayor Sara runs, it will be against the wishes of her father, and I don’t call this a dynasty because clearly, the President (said), ‘I don’t want the mess of the presidency on my family.’ But if (she) so decides then it’s up to the electorate. And I don’t think we can accuse the Duterte family of perpetuating themselves in power, because the President has made it clear, ‘I don’t want the presidency for Mayor Sara’,” he added. Roque made the remarks amid criticism that the succession for presidency by another Duterte reeks of political dynasty. “They are relatives, but a dynasty is perpetration of the same family by choice or because of a willful decision,” Roque said. “With her father’s words, there was clearly no intent to perpetuate their family in the seat of power,” Roque added. “I know the arguments against dynasties, but this is a different dynasty, because the father is telling the daughter not to run,” Roque said. At the same time, Roque, in an interview with dzRH, said there was no chance the President and his daughter would be in a presidential tandem in next year's general elections. Duterte will not seek a national post, should Sara decide to run for president next year, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said in the interview. “I think the issue as to whether he will run or not depends on whether Mayor Inday Sara will run. If Mayor Sara runs, I am sure he will not run for vice president,” Roque said. (See full story online at manilastandard.net)

By Rio N. Araja AGRARIAN Reform Secretary John Castriciones is set to meet field officials in Central Luzon on June 11 to finalize strategies and mechanisms to immediately distribute all government-owned lands (GOLs) in the region. “The distribution of idle government-owned lands is a top priority of the DAR Secretary following the issuance by President Rodrigo Duterte of Executive Order No. 75, series of 2019,” Central Luzon regional director Maria Celestina Tam said. According to the Department of Agrarian Reform chief, EO 75 directs all government instrumentalities to identify lands owned by the government devoted or suitable for agricultural purposes for distribution to identified qualified beneficiaries. In Pampanga alone, DAR is eyeing to fast track the distribution of 300 hectares of land within the Pampanga State Agricultural University or PSAU, Tam said. Other areas would follow suit to identify GOLs for possible distribution to agrarian reform beneficiaries in their respective provinces, she added. Castriciones would visit San Fernando City, Pampanga coinciding with the celebration of the 33rdanniversary of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program, where a general assembly of all DAR Region 3 officials and personnel would be held. He, together with his other top officials, would tackle the major issues in the region, and draw up the necessary measures to ensure a swift distribution of all agricultural lands in Central Luzon, specifically those owned by the government which are suitable for agricultural purposes.

House panel okays new bill on pension system overhaul By Maricel V. Cruz
T
HE House of Representatives Ad hoc Committee on the Military and Uniformed Personnel Pension System on Wednesday approved the substitute bill to overhaul the MUP pension system to make it more sustainable and to be able to respond to various concerns of uniformed servicemembers. During the meeting, the panel’s chair, Rep.Joey Sarte Salceda of Albay moved for the approval of the committee report after significant issues were resolved among the committee members and with the military and uniformed services branches. Key revisions from the previous committee hearings include the addition of disability benefits in the authorized insurance system on top of already legislated benefits, and the creation of a provident
fund to be infused with voluntary contributions from MUPs, said Salceda. Salceda pushed for added disability benefits under the risk insurance system to be created, in response to the suggestion of Rep. Raul Tupas to enhance the benefits package for MUPs who incur disabilities in the line of duty. “The benefits that MUPs will receive from the insurance system we will create under the Trust Fund Committee will be on top of whatever benefits they

are already entitled to. So, this is a way to balance our fiscal reform of the system with the unique risks the MUPs take,” Salceda said in a statement. Salceda also acceded to the proposal of Rep. Rufino Biazon that there should be a harmonized definition of what constitutes an MUP member. Salceda said law enforcement agencies such as the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency should be included in the definition of uniformed services. “We are just trying to fairly treat similarly situated branches. The proposal by Rep. Biazon is reasonable so I will accept it,” Salceda said. Emphasizing the need to enact military pension reform urgently, Salceda compared the MUP pension liability with other fiscal risks the country encountered in the past.

They are also ordered to subject themselves to a swab test only seven (7) days from arrival. Sotto said there was no need for Cebu residents, OFWs and ROFs to be undergo quarantine in hotels for 10 days or more. “After the arrival of the swab, after the negative results, within 24 hours, they are sent home and undergo home quarantine for the remaining balance of the 14 days required,” also said Sotto. “They will then be monitored by the Barangay. After 7 days, the 2nd swab will be done by the LGU of residence in Cebu,” the Senate leader said. In this manner, he emphasized that the IATF- required quarantine and swab test have not been violated.

Manila pledges Friday finish for Covid hospital MANILA’S COVID-19 Field Hospital will be finished by June 11, Friday, or ten days ahead of the self-imposed, 60day deadline earlier announced by Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso. The local chief executive said that the city’s seventh hospital may be operational in time for the celebration of the city’s 450th founding anniversary on June 24. The seventh hospital was built on a 2.6-hectare lot at the Burnham Green area of Luneta Park, right across the Quirino Grandstand and near the site of the city government’s free drivethru swabbing center. It has 344 beds and has all the needed equipment and facilities required by COVID patients including oxygen tanks, ambulances and medical frontliners, in consideration of the fact that those with moderate symptoms still face the possibility of being elevated to severe cases. The 24/7 construction began on April 20, utilizing hundreds of workers to ensure completion ahead of the city’s big event. “This seventh hospital of ours will be our gift to the people of Manila. Our special thanks to City Engineer Armand Andres and the workers who expeditiously constructed the hospital round-the-clock,” Domagoso said. He also cited the efforts of City Architect Pepito Balmoris and City Electrician Randy Sadac. Domagoso said that the operations will begin pending the filling up of staff needed and dry-run operations. Domagoso ordered the construction of the COVID Field Hospital in view of the anticipated surge in coronavirus cases in the coming months and in an effort to declog the six city-run hospitals of COVID cases so they could focus on those who are under critical or severe condition and other illnesses as well.

PLDT and Smart are reinforcing their support for the rice farming sector, as farmers continue to face challenges in a long drawn-out COVID-19 pandemic. Through the Buy Local Sustainability Fund, PLDT and its wireless arm Smart Communications, Inc., recently turned over P100,000 to 20 farmers supported by FarmVocacy in Baran-
gay Kurtinganan, in Santa Cruz, Mindoro Occidental. The funding aid aims to help support rice farmers in the next cropping season. “Farmers are among the most financially challenged in the country. They’re often saddled with highinterest loans. We want to give them
access to capital funding to help them jump start the planting season,” said Stephanie Orlino, Smart Assistant Vice President for Community Relations. Life is even harder for farmers who till the land on their own. Aida Papa has been exclusively carrying the load of managing her four-hectare rice field since her husband died seven years ago.
The fifty-three-year-old farmer is also raising their only son on her own. “It’s very challenging to grow rice by yourself. I have to hire workers every step of the way and that adds up to my expenses,” Papa narrated. To recoup some of the overhead, she rents out her tractor to other farmers in the community.
Villar bats for PGS to spur organic farming THE Participatory Guarantee System is a motivation to promote and develop the organic industry and a great help to small farmers producing organic products who cannot afford the expensive Third Party Certification, Senator Cynthia A. Villar said . During the grand launch of PGS, Villar, chairperson of the Senate Agriculture and Food committee, said PGS is a low-cost guaranty system compared to Third Party Certification. It makes accessible and cheaper certification cost for organic produce. “The PGS will cost not more than P2,000 per year per certification compared to the Third Party Certification of P150,000 per year,”Villar said. Saying more Filipinos should have access to healthy and safe farm products, Villar has pushed for a system of organic products certification
which small farmers can also afford. Apart from environmental protection, she said PGS promotes the use of natural and farm-based resources and inputs like organic fertilizer, which would yield to less input cost on the part of the farmers. “This means increased farmer profitability.” A locally focused quality assurance system developed and practiced by people engaged in organic organic agriculture , Villar said PGS empowers organizations and its members particularly the farmers and fisherfolk including the consumers. The system also acknowledges the involvement of other sectors in the community as an integral part not only in verifying the integrity of the produce and products but also in providing the needed technical assistance for continual improvement of the system.

2 charged over ROQUE, PANELO AT ODDS OVER ‘MURDER’ RAPS COVID vax slot for sale modus THE Philippine National Police has filed multiple criminal charges against two persons involved in a “vaccine slot for sale” scheme in Mandaluyong City. PNP chief Gen. Guillermo Eleazar said charges for estafa, fixing under the Anti-Red Tape Law of 2007, and violation of the Cybercrime Prevention Act were slapped against Cyle Cedric Bonifacio and Melvin Gutierrez before the Mandaluyong City Prosecutor’s Office. Bonifacio was turned over to authorities by his father, a village councilor in Mandaluyong, after the local police began looking for him after his identity was confirmed in an investigation on the illegal modus. Eleazar said Bonifacio, in his testimony, tagged Gutierrez, a barangay fire volunteer, as the one who helped him get a vaccination slot in the city. “Bonifacio also testified that he only intervened once to get the vaccination slot for another person and the P12,000 given to him, through online bank transfer, was a reward,” the PNP chief said. Eleazar said Bonifacio offered the vaccination slot in exchange for money to his high school classmate, who then rejected the pitch and made the public aware of the illegal activity. He said an investigation by the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group and the Anti-Cybercrime Group is ongoing to determine other people who may be involved in the scheme. The filing of cases against Bonifacio and Gutierrez should serve as a warning to others who will try to cheat our national vaccination program. We don’t have to spend money for vaccinations because they are given for free,” Eleazar said.
50k mask violators in just a week—Año
A
T LEAST 50,021 cases of face mask violations were recorded in just a week from May 31 to June 6, Interior Secretary Eduardo Año said.
At least 613 were apprehended for taking part in mass gatherings while 13,882 were accosted for failing to observe physical distancing. Of the total number of health protocol violators, more than 1,700 were charged. On Monday evening, President Rodrigo Duterte reminded Filipinos to continue observing basic protocols even as the government ramps up its vaccination program to arrest the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. “There is no guarantee – though the vaccine would give you a measure of protection – it does not guarantee that you
will not get COVID again. So in spite of your vaccines and boosters, please observe the basic protocol: wear a face mask, wash your hands frequently, and observe social distancing,” he said. “This pandemic will eventually end. With your cooperation, this will end more quickly,” the President added. Meanwhile, presidential spokesman Harry Roque and chief presidential legal counsel Salvado Panelo, both lawyers by profession, were at loggerheads over a proposal to file murder charges against COVID-19 spreaders. Roque said a “quarantine law” that
would slap heftier punishment against COVID-19 spreaders is more pragmatic instead of filing murder raps, as suggested by Panelo, against those who violate quarantine protocols despite knowing fully that they have contracted the disease. “The easiest thing is to have a special law so we can impose penalties. We really need a permanent quarantine law. Other countries already have that,” he said. “I don’t agree with Secretary Sal Panelo’s interpretation. It is still better to have a quarantine law,” Roque added. The President earlier ordered the arrest of barangay captains who failed to stop events that violate existing health protocols similar to the super spreader events recorded in Caloocan City, Quezon City and Bulacan last month.

Duterte: No mercy for killer cop; orders stricter neuro-psych test
PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte promised he will ensure the police officer who shot dead a 52-year-old woman in Quezon City last week will go to prison. The commander-in-chief said he would not tolerate policemen who commit crimes. “He will be imprisoned. That’s for sure. I will see to it that he will go to prison,” he said in a television interview.
Duterte was referring to the case of Master Sgt. Hensie Zinampan who was caught on video fatally shooting his neighbor, Lilybeth Valdez, in Greater Fairview village in Quezon City on May 31. Zinampan is already in police custody and has been slapped with criminal and administrative charges. The latest shooting incident came
less than six months after the killing of 52-year-old Sonia Gregorio and her 25-year-old son, Frank Anthony, in Paniqui, Tarlac by their neighbor, Master Sgt. Jonel Nuezca in December. Duterte questioned how cops who could not handle “petty quarrels” were able to pass the neuro-psychiatric test for aspiring police officers.
P1.3-m shabu seized in buy-bust By Joel E. Zurbano
POLICE arrested two suspected drug dealers and seized more than P1.3 million worth of shabu in a buy-bust operation Tuesday night in Muntinlupa City. Arrested were Roxane Alcaide, 28, and Joana Leoncio, 18, both residents of Barangay San Vicente in San Pedro, Laguna. Aside from the illegal drugs, authorities also seized two mobile phones, two personal bags, and an ecobag used by the suspects in their illegal transactions. Southern Police District director Brig. Gen. Jimili Macaraeg said his men from the Drug Enforcement Unit led by Maj. Cecilio Tomas Jr. conducted the entrapment operation around 8
p.m. at a mall in Barangay Alabang in coordination with the Muntinlupa City Police and the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency. Macaraeg commended his men and the PDEA personnel for the arrest of the suspects. “I hope this would be another lesson to everyone not to get involved in illegal drugs activities because the PNP is unrelenting in pursuing any person or group involved in illegal drugs” he said. Macaraeg said the SPD is conducting a series of police operations as part of the continuing crackdown on drug dealing in the National Capital Region. Early this month, the SPD also busted three suspected drug dealers and seized more than P1 million worth of shabu in Paranaque City.
“Those cops are too bold. They easily lose their temper. How were they able to pass the neuro [psychiatric test] if they could not handle a petty quarrel?” the President said. Duterte said while he would only defend a policeman or a soldier if they kill a person in the line of duty, he cannot extend the same protection to erring uniformed personnel.
THE Court of Appeals has sustained the ruling of a Makati City regional trial court denying the plea of the government to issue a warrant of arrest against former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV in connection with the dismissed coup d’etat case against him. In a decision penned by Associate Justice Edwin Sorongon, the CA’s Special 11th Division resolved to dismiss the state’s petition seeking to reverse the orders of Makati RTC Judge Andres Soriano issued in October 2018. The lower court earlier junked the motion of the Department of Justice seeking the issuance of an arrest warrant against the former Navy officer for his involvement in the Oakwood Mutiny in 2003. In its motion, the DOJ cited President Rodrigo Duterte’s Proclamation No. 572 which nullified the amnesty granted to Trillanes. The appellate court held that the 1987 Constitution does not prohibit the President from revoking the grant of an amnesty if he finds that the recipient failed to comply with the conditions. In Trillanes’ case, however, the CA gave weight to the trial court’s findings that he filed his application for amnesty in January 2011 pursuant to then-President Benigno Aquino III’s Proclamation No. 75 and admitted his guilt for the offenses, contrary to the Duterte administration’s claims. The appellate court also affirmed the validity of the RTC’s decision to dismiss the coup d’etat charges as a result of the amnesty. “Therefore, it cannot be said that the grant of amnesty in favor of private respondent was validly revoked. As a result, the charges against private respondent in connection with the offenses ‘forgotten’ or forgiven by the amnesty must be necessarily dropped,” the CA said. Associate Justices Perpetua Susana Atal-Paño and Raymond Reynold Lauigan concurred with the ruling.
Cases filed vs. son of Calbayog mayor, 4 cops THE Philippine National Police has filed homicide and murder charges against four policemen and Ronald Mark Aquino, son of the late Calbayog City Mayor Ronaldo Aquino, for their alleged involvement in a shootout in March that led to the elder Aquino’s death. In a Senate hearing, PNP Director for Operations Maj. Gen. Alfred Corpuz said three counts of homicide and frustrated homicide were filed against policemen Lt. Col. Harry Sucayre, Maj. Shyrile Tan, and Lt. Julio Armeza Jr. for the killing of the mayor and his companions. The younger Aquino and Cpl. Ramil Rosales, along with several unidentified suspects, were charged with two counts of murder and one frustrated murder, according to Police Maj. Gen. Alfred Corpuz. The charges, Corpuz said, were for the death of Staff Sgt. Romeo Laoyon and Capt. Joselito Tabada, chief of Samar’s PNP Drug Enforcement Unit. Aquino, for his part, denied that he was involved in the death of two police officers during the incident. The 58-year-old mayor was ambushed by police personnel in March. The police claimed the shootout began when the security detail of the 58-year-old mayor fired first at the vehicle of the policemen, killing Tabada and Laoyon. The National Bureau of Investigation-Eastern Visayas, however, said based on accounts of several witnesses, men aboard Tabada’s vehicle alighted and strafed Aquino’s vehicle, prompting the shootout and killing three of the mayor’s companions.

Biden leaves Washington to meet allies—then Putin
W
ASHINGTON— Joe Biden departs Washington early Wednesday on the first foreign trip of his presidency, launching an intense series of summits with G7, European and NATO partners before a tense face-to-face with Russia’s Vladimir Putin.
Biden, 78, heads from the White House first to Britain ahead of a G7 summit in a Cornish seaside resort from Friday to Sunday. From there, in rapid succession, the veteran Democrat will visit Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle, fly to Brussels for summits with the NATO military alliance and European Union, then finish up in Geneva, where he meets Putin next Wednesday. With the world still crawling out from under the wreckage of Covid-19, Biden is casting his diplomatic marathon as a return to badly-needed US leadership.
But beyond the immediate challenges of boosting vaccine donations to poorer regions and reinvigorating post-pandemic economies, Biden’s agenda features the even bigger task of shoring up a somewhat-tattered group of democracies against Russia and China. “This is a defining question of our time,” Biden wrote in The Washington Post ahead of his trip. “Will the democratic alliances and institutions that shaped so much of the last century prove their capacity against modern-day threats and adversaries? I believe the answer is yes. And this week in Europe, we have the chance to prove it.” Biden’s pitch marks a return to a traditional US worldview after four years during which Donald Trump flirted with autocrats and recast multilateralism as a dirty word. And it is a message that the trip’s choreography -- setting out the military and economic might of the US alliances before Biden sits down with Putin -- will reinforce. “He will go into this meeting with the wind at his back,” National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said. Trump argued that the United States
SCN FORM NO. 1 (R.A. NO. 9139)
can’t afford to be the world’s policeman, an isolationist stance popular with his voters. The Biden administration has performed another 180-degree turn, declaring “America is back.” According to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, the alternative is China taking over or even “chaos.” Still reeling from Trump shock, European partners may eye Biden’s vows with skepticism. There was friction last month when Washington blocked French attempts at the United Nations to demand a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. Biden’s ramping up of vaccine donations around the world also follows what critics saw as a long period of hoarding. Biden’s meeting on the sidelines of NATO with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan promises to be especially prickly. Biden has irked Erdogan, a sometimes Trump ally, by highlighting Turkey’s dire human rights situation and recognizing the Ottoman Empire’s genocide against the Armenians. Washington risks “losing a precious friend,” Erdogan has warned. AFP
US pharmacist jailed for 3 years after tampering with COVID jabs WASHINGTON—A US pharmacist has been jailed for three years after pleading guilty to tampering with hundreds of Moderna coronavirus vaccines, the Justice Department said on Tuesday. Steven R. Brandenburg, 46, “purposefully removed” vaccine vials from their refrigerator unit even though they must be stored at a certain temperature until used, court documents said. The pharmacist was also ordered to pay $83,800 in compensation to the Wisconsin hospital where he worked. He removed the vials on two overnight shifts in December, leaving them outside for hours before returning them to be used on recipients the following day. A total of 57 people received vaccines with the vials that Brandenburg had tampered with,
the Justice Department statement said. “The purposeful attempt to spoil vaccine doses during a national public health emergency is a serious crime,” said Brian Boynton, acting assistant attorney general of the department’s Civil Division. Brandenburg had expressed skeptical views about vaccines and specifically the Moderna vaccine, according to his plea agreement. Moderna vaccines must be stored at standard refrigerator temperatures. More than 124 million doses of the Moderna vaccine have been administered in the US. The two-shot regime is around 90 percent effective against symptomatic Covid-19 and 95 percent effective against severe disease. AFP

SENSELESS DEATH. Friends of the late Yumnah Afzaal hold placards as they gather prior to a vigil for the victims of the deadly vehicle attack on five members of the Canadian Muslim community in London, Ontario, Canada on June 8. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday labeled it as a “terrorist attack” as the suspect, identified as Nathaniel Veltman, 20, was arrested shortly after the June 6 attack. AFP
Canada mourns ‘model family’ cut down on an evening stroll LONDON, Canada—A mother who was a “brilliant scholar,” a cricket-loving father with “a welcoming smile,” a teenage daughter who was “a friend to many”; a doting grandmother: the victims of Sunday’s truck-ramming attack in Canada, all Muslims with roots in Pakistan, were a “model family,” friends say. The attack, dubbed a “terrorist” act by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, came out of the blue as the Afzaal family, taking one of the evening strolls they so loved, prepared to cross a street in the Ontario city of London. The lives of three generations were snuffed out in a moment: Madiha Salman, age 44, who was doing postgraduate work in civil and environmental engineering; her 46-year-old husband, Salman Afzaal, who loved to greet people at the mosque; their 15-year-old daughter, Yumna Salman; and Afzaal’s 74-year-old mother, who has not been named. The couple’s son, nine-year-old Fayez, was instantly orphaned. He remains in hospital with serious injuries but is recovering, relatives said. What had been an ordinary evening for the Afzaals was brutally cut short when a black pickup truck, driven by a 20-year-old suspect, took deliberate aim at them, jumping a curb and mowing them down. The attack, in this city of 500,000 some 200 kilometers (125 miles) southwest of Toronto, sparked anger and disbelief over another senseless attack on ordinary Canadian Muslims. “Everyone who knew Salman and the rest of the Afzaal family knew the model family they were, as Muslims, Canadians and Pakistanis,” said a statement from their relatives. “They were always there giving and participating in spreading goodness.” AFP
Gunmen kill 10 mine-clearing workers in Afghanistan camp KUNDUZ, Afghanistan—Masked gunmen killed 10 people working for the HALO Trust mine-clearing organisation in northern Afghanistan, the interior ministry said Wednesday, blaming the Taliban for the latest attack to rock the violence-wracked country. “The Taliban entered a compound of a mine-clearing agency... and started shooting everyone,” interior ministry spokesman Tareq Arian told reporters. The UK-based HALO Trust told AFP “an unknown armed group” killed 10 staff and wounded 16 others. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid denied the insurgents
were involved in the attack. “We condemn attacks on the defenseless & view it as brutality,” he said on Twitter. “We have normal relations with NGOs, our Mujahidin will never carry out such brutal acts.” The raid happened around 10 pm (1730 GMT) Tuesday when dozens of deminers were relaxing in the HALO compound after a day spent removing ordnance from nearby minefields, around 260 kilometres (160 miles) north of the capital, Kabul. “Around 110 men, from local communities in northern Afghanistan, were in the camp,” HALO said.

HE stock market rallied Wednesday on another set of positive data supporting the Philippines’ economic recovery.
The Philippine Stock Exchange Index surged 92.82 points, or 1.4 percent, to 6,902.54 on a value turnover of P7.6 billion. Gainers overwhelmed losers, 138 to 61, with 52 issues unchanged. April exports and imports both sustained growth, increasing 72.1 percent and 140.9 percent, respectively, as world economies reopen and the rollout of COVID-19 vaccine accelerates, data from the Philippine Statistics Authority on Wednesday show.
Conglomerate Ayala Corp. advanced 4.2 percent to P835, while property unit Ayala Land Inc. rose 3.6 percent to P38.30. Jollibee Foods Corp., the biggest fast-food chain, climbed 3.3 percent to P205, while BDO Unibank Inc. of the Sy Group, the largest lender in terms of assets, gained 3.2 percent at P110.30. The rest of Asian investors, meanwhile, trod cautiously Wednesday with focus on the release of US inflation data this week, which could have a huge bearing on Federal Reserve monetary policy, while the European Central Bank’s latest meeting is also in view. Global markets have essentially been in a holding position this month as traders try to determine the outlook for central banks’ policies in light of the surging economic recovery, with
concerns that a spike in prices will force them to taper ultra-loose monetary programs. After a tepid lead from Wall Street, Asian markets mostly fell. Tokyo, Hong Kong, Sydney, Singapore, Seoul, Mumbai and Taipei slipped, though Shanghai, Wellington and Jakarta edged up. Officials continue to pledge that any sharp rise in inflation will only be temporary and they will maintain their accommodative position until the economy is well on the recovery track, but investors remain susceptible to data. That makes Thursday’s consumer price index (CPI) figures crucial, observers say, with anything above the 4.7-percent forecast likely to ramp up expectations the Fed will tighten policy earlier than expected.

Bitcoin sinks, nears symbolic $30,000 mark LONDON—The price of bitcoin fell sharply on Tuesday, approaching a symbolic $30,000 threshold it has not crossed since January and dragging other cryptocurrencies in its wake. At around 15:45 GMT, bitcoin fell 8.6 percent to a value of $31,501, a level not seen since mid-May, when the volatile cryptocurrency temporarily lost 30 percent in one session. The second-largest cryptocurrency, ethereum, lost 11.2 percent of its value, falling to $2,361. “Numbers that should be staggering for a single day’s performance are no longer a shock to those of us invested in the crypto universe,” Hugh Shields, an analyst at SpreadEx.com said, calling the market an “anomaly.” No concrete reason appeared to explain the price drop on Tuesday, but some analysts pointed to the seizure of $2.3 million worth of bitcoin belonging to the Darkside hackers by US authorities as a possible factor. Former US president Donald Trump also called bitcoin a “scam” that was “competing with the dollar” during an appearance on Fox Business television. “Moves by governments around the world to regulate the crypto space... are causing waves of concern,” analysts at Hargreaves Lansdown said. Since the end of 2020, the price of bitcoin had been boosted by the interest of professional investors, from investment funds to large Wall Street banks. The electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla has also invested some of its cash in it. Between the beginning of last year and a peak in mid-April of $64,870, the price of bitcoin gained nearly 800 percent. But since then, the cryptocurrency has fallen in value by more than 50 percent. The volatility is worrying some investors. The British fund Ruffer, which has a reputation for prudence, caused a stir when it invested in bitcoin in November. But the fund said on Monday it had divested itself of its crypto-currencies, pocketing $1.1 billion in profit in the process. AFP
“The tight trading ranges seen so far this month reflect the cautious mood in the market ahead of the inflation numbers,” said Fiona Cincotta of City Index. “Whilst the Fed reassures that this spike in inflation is temporary, policy makers will need to be out in their droves to calm the market.” Thursday also sees the ECB’s decision on policy, with analysts not expecting any changes yet but looking for any shifts in its outlook as the recovery presses ahead. “It’s an opportune time for a thorough review given the improved state of both the economy and the vaccination rollout, factors that are so closely intertwined and now working more clearly for the positive,” said National Australia Bank analyst David de Garis.

One in 10 Europeans has bought a fake product—study MADRID, Spain—One in every 10 Europeans has been duped into buying counterfeit products, mostly coming from Asia, a study by the EU’s intellectual property office (EUIPO) showed Tuesday. Many consumers struggle to differentiate between authentic products and fakes, said the study by EUIPO which is based in the Spanish coastal city of Alicante. Counterfeit products account for 6.8 percent of the European Union’s imports and are worth 121 billion euros ($147 billion) according to figures from EUIPO and the Paris-based Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Counterfeits are present in all sectors from clothing to electronics, toys and wine, with 9.0 percent of European “admitting they had been duped into mak-
ing such a purchase,” the study found. But the percentage varies widely by country, with 12 percent in Spain, 9 percent in France, 19 percent in Bulgaria and 2 percent in Switzerland. In a context where e-commerce is booming globally due to the pandemic, in which 70 percent of Europeans shopped online last year, Eurostat figures show, “the ability to identify counterfeit products remains problematic for EU citizens,” the study says. EUIPO says 33 percent of Europeans “have already wondered about the authenticity of a product they’ve bought.” EUIPO head Christian Archambeau also flagged the “rise in the number of counterfeit medications and healthcare products which can have adverse effects on people’s health and safety.” According to another EUIPO study published earlier this year, the main
countries of origin for counterfeit medications are China and India, while the United Arab Emirates, Hong Kong and Singapore serve as “transit hubs” for such products, whose global value in March 2020 amounted to $5 million. Such products, which include everything from painkillers to antibiotics and even face masks, are largely destined for Africa, the United States and Europe, but also Albania, Ukraine and Morocco. They are mostly transported by ship, with “80 percent of the global value of containers seized worldwide” originating from China and Hong Kong, the EUIPO study said. It also drew attention to the “lucrative” piracy of television content that is accessed online, which in the EU is worth more than $1 billion every year, with the resulting impact felt by content creators and legitimate businesses.

SYDNEY, Australia—G7 nations must overhaul global trade rules to stop powerful countries using economic coercion, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Wednesday ahead of a meeting of the group’s leaders in Britain. As Australia’s shadow trade war with its largest trading partner China shows few signs of abating, Morrison told the Perth USAsia Center that the global rules-based order is “under serious strain.” “The most practical way to address economic coercion is the restoration of the global trading body’s binding dispute settlement system,” he said. “Where there are no consequences for coercive behavior, there is little incentive for restraint.” Beijing has imposed harsh economic sanctions on a range of Australian products in recent months, including tariffs or disruption across several agricultural sectors, coal, wine and tourism. Many in Canberra believe the measures are punishment for pushing back against Beijing’s influence operations in Australia, rejecting Chinese investment in sensitive areas and publicly calling for an investigation into the origins of the coronavirus. Morrison’s comments came ahead of the G7 Summit in Cornwall, southern England, where Australia has been invited as a guest nation to participate in the “G7 Plus” talks. He plans to use the event as an opportunity to work with leading nations to “modernize” the World Trade Organization rulebook, ahead of its ministerial conference in November. Australia has launched WTO action over Chinese tariffs on barley imports, but the case could take years to resolve. With climate change expected to rank high on the agenda at the G7’s first in-person meeting for nearly two years, Morrison also appears set to resist international pressure to commit Australia to a target of becoming carbon-neutral by 2050.

Pandemic pushes poor US teenage students into taking odd jobs By Delphine Touitou ARLINGTON, Virginia—When his father lost his job last year, Togi, then 16, wasted little time before looking for work to support his family, even though he knew it could put him at risk of contracting COVID-19. He ended up working at a fast food restaurant in a suburb of Washington, juggling the job with attending school held online as the world’s largest COVID-19 outbreak tore through the United States. “It’s exhausting,” Togi said, describing long days spent between school and work, leaving little time for the teenager, who was born in Mongolia, to socialize. The twin health and economic crises caused by the pandemic in the United States have forced some teenagers to take on odd jobs, mostly in the fast food industry, while trying to keep up with the demands of virtual schooling. Educators say many students have fallen off schools’ radar, and may not return to classrooms when in-person learning resumes as the pandemic ebbs. Most students are Black or hispanic—“communities that were disproportionately affected by the pandemic, both in the numbers of infections and deaths,” said Elmer G. Roldan, executive director of
Togi, an 11th grade student at Wakefield High School, is seen at work in a fast food restaurant in Arlington, Virginia, on June 6, 2021. When his father lost his job last year, Togi, then 16, did not hesitate to look for a job to help his family, despite the fear of COVID-19. AFP
Communities In Schools of Los Angeles, which works to stop young people from dropping out. Students from families whose parents are undocumented and not able to access government relief measures enacted during the pandemic are also facing pressure to work, he said. No choice There are no official statistics for how many students may end up leaving
school to work. Hailly Korman, a senior associate partner at Bellwether Education Partners, which is focused on improving schooling, said some students have simply been unable to avoid working, after parents or caregivers lost work due to the virus. “These kids are not working because that’s fun, or they’re making lots of money. They’re working because they
have financial needs that need to be met. And if the choice is go to work, or your family is out on the street, that’s not a choice at all,” she said. Teachers and professionals in the CIS Network have said the number of high school students working has increased dramatically during the pandemic, and the hours of those already working has increased to as much as 35 hours perweek. “Legally, students are supposed to work no more than 20 hours if they are working part time,” but in practice, “it’s hard to monitor,” Roldan said. Johanna, a 17-year-old high school student in Los Angeles, works in a fast food restaurant, balancing the job that pays around $450 per-week with attending class online. She sometimes stays up till midnight to finish work, with only Wednesdays and Saturdays off, but says she’s intent on finishing her studies. “I know if I drop out of school... I’m just gonna keep working at a restaurant,” said Johanna, who hopes to be a music therapist. Yet Korman says many working students won’t be able to hold on. “What we’ve done is created an environment where the decision to leave school to work feels even easier,” she said. AFP

EDC unit starts work to expand geothermal plant in Manito, Albay By Alena Mae S. Flores GEOTHERMAL power producer Energy Development Corp. said Wednesday subsidiary BacMan Geothermal Inc. broke ground on Wednesday to start the construction of the P7-billion, 29-megawatt Palayan Binary Power Plant in Manito, Albay. The project will provide additional supply of clean, reliable, stable power to the country by December next year. “This project is our number 1 additional contribution to that much-needed baseload clean, reliable RE that fully supports the DOE’s intent of providing adequate, continuous and economic supply of energy to our country,” said EDC president and chief operating officer Richard Tantoco during the groundbreaking ceremony streamed live via Zoom. He said the Palayan Binary Project would be EDC’s contribution to the country’s target of reducing carbon emissions to 75 percent by 2030. It is expected to help the Philippines avoid 72,200 tons of carbon emissions each year. “That’s 29-MW of additional clean, renewable, stable power for electric cooperatives, distribution utilities as well as businesses that aim to lower their carbon emissions or even aspire to become carbon-neutral,” Tantoco said. “And for these reasons, we strive to make sure that this P7-billion investment will be able to meet our target commissioning month for this Bacman expansion project by the end of 2022, amidst the pandemic,” he said. The PBPP project will expand EDC’s 130-MW Bacon-Manito geothermal facility and will generate 215.8 GWh of clean power. It was awarded a subsidy from Japan as part of the Joint Credit Mechanism. The low-carbon project is expected to reduce the country’s carbon emissions by around 72,200 tons each year as it helps Japan reach its own CO2 reduction goals. The project will use the waste heat from the 110-MW Bacman-1 geothermal power plant to generate additional energy without the need for additional drilling. Heat from brine, which is usually produced from the wet steam operations, will be used to generate electricity by the new power plant before re-injecting back to the reservoir.

April exports, imports surged on trade revival By Julito G. Rada
E
XPORTS and imports jumped 72.1 percent and 140.9 percent, respectively, in April as global trade reopens amid the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines, data from the Philippine Statistics Authority show.
Export sales reached $5.71 billion in April, up from $3.319 billion a year ago. The growth was faster than the 33-3 percent year-on-year increase in March. The figure brought total export earnings in the first four months to $23.37 billion, up 19 percent from a year earlier. Trade Secretary Ramon Lopez said the country’s export growth rate was the highest among select Asian economies,
surpassing Japan’s 38 percent and China’s 32.3 percent growth rates. Lopez said this was the second consecutive month of positive year-on-year growth, following the 33.3 percent revised growth rate in March 2021. “Our latest export growth rate shows that we are steadily recovering from the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. It can be considered a solid growth considering that the performance was even stronger than the pre-pandemic levels in 2019, and not just due to the low base in 2020.

Revolution Precrafted begins selling designs of pre-frabricated homes to property builders PROPERTY-TECHNOLOGY company Revolution Precrafted said Wednesday it is now open to selling designs of modern pre-fabricated homes to developers. Revolution Precrafted said in a statement the company was pivoting towards licensing property developers and end-users who would like to use the designs for their own homes or projects using their own contractors. Revolutionary Precrafted founder and chief executive Jose Roberto Antonio said the company is an intellectual property-based firm founded on the idea of making world-class designer houses accessible, practical, fast and affordable especially for a rapidly expanding middle class. It supplies property developers with limited-edition designer homes whose international marketing rights Revolution Precrafted acquired. In 2018, the company started to offer the option to construct the houses it designed to wid-
en its reach. “How we pivot now involves leveraging on our IP or intellectual property—the compelling designs that are really at the heart of our enterprise— and licensing them to any developer or end-user who would like the designs for their own homes or projects using their own contractors,” said Antonio. “Our pivot entails focusing on what is truly Revolution Precrafted’s core business—selling designs,” he said. Antonio said the company started to settle its obligations to suppliers, contractors and home buyers. Majority have since been put to rest and we are fulfilling our obligations to clients and suppliers where these contracts are deemed due or expired indeed,” said Antonio. The company with its partner property developers jointly advised home buyers to coordinate directly with the developers concerned to resolve remaining concerns. Jenniffer B. Austria
ICTSI DONATION.
The ICTSI Foundation signs a partnership agreement with Finnish nongovernment organization RiverRecycle to pioneer a financially sustainable river waste collection system for the Pasig River in Manila. The ICTSI Foundation is providing $1 million in funding for RiverRecycle’s implementation of the project, which complements efforts to revive one of the country’s main waterways.
nents (345.2 percent) and miscellaneous manufactured articles (256.1 percent). By commodity group, electronic products remained the country’s top export in April 2021 with total earnings of $3.22 billion. This accounted for 56.4 percent of the total exports for the period. Imports in April also surged 140.9 percent to $8.45 billion from $3.5 billion in the same month last year. It was faster than the 22-percent increase in March. This brought the import value in the four-month period to $34.46 billion, up 21.9 percent from the $28.27 billion in the same months last year. “The annual increment of imported goods in April 2021 was due to the increase in all of the top 10 major commodity groups which was led by transport equipment [547.4 percent]. This was followed by mineral fuels, lubricants, and related materials [387.9 percent]; and other food and live animals [283.1 percent],” the PSA said. With Othel V. Campos
Respirators given by firms rotting in DOH warehouse A TOTAL of 370 respirators remain rotting in the Department of Health warehouse since last year as the agency did not distribute them to hospitals in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic because they were donated by the tobacco industry. “This is criminal negligence. These respirators could have saved lives. My district in Cagayan De Oro which has one of the highest cases of COVID in the country badly needs these respirators,” House Deputy Speaker Rufus Rodriguez told the House Committee on Good Government Wednesday. The DOH ignored the donated respirators, invoking the Joint DOHCivil Service Commission Memorandum Circular 2010-01 signed by then CSC chair and now DOH Secretary Francisco Duque III that prohibits government interaction with the tobacco industry, including receipt of donations. In the same hearing, CSC Commissioner Aileen Lourdes Lizada said she moved to recall the “defective” circular and admitted the agency found no record granting Duque authority to sign the order in behalf of the “collegial body.” Puwersa ng Bayaning Atleta Rep. Jericho Jonas Nograles said it is the primary duty of the DOH to save the lives of Filipinos, yet they chose to prioritize their campaign against tobacco first. The discovery of the rotting respirators surfaced during the public hearing conducted by the House Committee on Good Government on reports that the DOH and the Food and Drug Administration received money from anti-tobacco, foreign interest groups led by the Bloomberg Initiative.
SMC doubles budget to P2b for Pasig River rehabilitation By Jenniffer B. Austria DIVERSIFIED conglomerate San Miguel Corp. said Wednesday it doubled to P2 billion its committed budget for the five-year clean-up and rehabilitation of Pasig River. The project, which is set to become the largest river rehabilitation project in the country, was officially launched Tuesday. “There have been many cleanup efforts in the past, and government has successfully implemented a number of programs these past few years. But decades of pollution and compounding problems that have rendered the river biologically dead since the 1990s are too significant and complex to overcome--even for the best-intentioned advocates and organizations,” San Miguel president and chief operating officer Ramon Ang said. “We hope that with the resources and technical know-how that we are bringing into the effort today—along with the continued support of our national government agencies and local government units--we can all make a bigger difference,” he said. The company is targeting to remove some 50,000 metric tons of waste from Pasig River each month, or 600,000 metric tons of waste a year, using advanced and specialized equipment, which the company already acquired. Ang said cleaning Pasig River would bear historical significance for San Miguel. In 1890, La Fabrica de Cerveza de San Miguel was established along the banks of Pasig River on Malacanang Street in the San Miguel district of Manila. The original site is now part of Malacanang Palace grounds. Those who attended the simple launching ceremony were Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu, Metropolitan Manila Development Authority chairman Benhur Abalos, Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso, Mandaluyong Mayor Menchie Abalos, Interior Undersecretary Epimaco Densing III, Public Works Assistant Secretary Antonio Mulano and Philippine Coast Guard Station Commander for Pasig Crisanto Anas.

Plastic producers oppose higher tax
THE Philippine Plastics Industry Association and other stakeholders expressed opposition to House Bill No. 9171 that will impose a P20 excise tax for every kilogram of plastic bags removed from the factory or customs territory. “The bill encompasses not only us, but all the industry users of plastic bags as primary and secondary packaging, like processed or frozen foods, hygiene and health care, medical and pharmaceutical products, and all agricultural and agro-industrial commodities, including products for export, also as the safest, stronger, and most hygienic material for transporting goods,” said PPIA president Danny Ngo. He said the entire domestic retail and micro-businesses using plastic carrier bags and all consumers would shoulder the higher costs. This does not spare even the smallest outlets like sari-sari stores that number over 1.3 million, he said. The group said the measure would severely affect the informal sector like vendors. The International Labor Organization in 2013 stated that the Philippine informal economy, including micro-retailers vendors, make up 72.5 percent of employment in the Philippines. Othel V. Campos

Tokyo Games chiefs mull plan to vaccinate volunteers TOKYO—Tokyo Olympics organizers are considering vaccinating all 70,000 Games volunteers, CEO Toshiro Muto said Tuesday, in a bid to reduce infection risks with around six weeks until the sporting extravaganza. And overseas journalists covering the event will have their movements tracked by GPS, Muto said, as Games officials try to reassure a sceptical public that the mega-event can be held safely. Around 10,000 volunteers—who are vital to the smooth running of the Games—have quit over issues including virus concerns. Muto said a plan to offer shots to volunteers helping at venues and the Olympic village was “definitely under discussion”, and could be widened to domestic media and other Japan-based participants. “In terms of volunteers, especially volunteers who are bound to be near the athletes, we need to treat them as if they’re the same as athletes,” he said. Japan has seen a smaller Covid-19 outbreak than many countries, but until recently its vaccine roll-out had been relatively slow. Around 3.5 percent of the population are fully vaccinated. Japanese Olympic athletes have started to receive their jabs in a separate programme, part of an International Olympic Committee deal with Pfizer. Muto said there was “a fair probability” that Games organisers could negotiate to expand that scheme beyond the current 20,000 athletes and staff if they decided to vaccinate all volunteers. But with the clock ticking, he warned it would not be simple. “If we’re going to give shots, we need to identify whether we can add those shots, or whether we have the system to back it up,” he said. “Also, how far are we going to widen the scope? There are a number of things we need to consider.” Organizers also warned that overseas journalists coming to Japan to cover the Games would be subject to strict controls on movement. About 6,000 reporters visiting Japan for the Olympics must provide a detailed list of areas they will visit for their first two weeks in Japan, such as sports venues and hotels. And Muto said smartphone tracking technology would be used to make sure they only go where they are supposed to. “Using GPS, if they go to places outside their planned destinations, that would become very apparent,” said Muto. “If they go places they’re not supposed to, we are definitely concerned that it would heighten the risk.” AFP

Vietnam government to decide on fate of ‘21 Hanoi SEA Games By Peter Atencio
T
HE government of Vietnam will decide on the fate of the 31st Southeast Asian Games. Philippine Olympic Committee president Abraham Tolentino said this after attending an online meeting of the SEA Games Federation Council on Wednesday.
Seven countries, including the Philippines, have appealed to the Vietnam SEA Games Organizing Committee not to postpone the biennial meet, which is set to be held from November 21 to December 2 this year. Tolentino said Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Singapore, TimorLeste and Thailand have joined the Philippines in opposing plans to

This time around, the 21-year-old top Filipino gymnast took the bronze medal in the parallel bars last Sunday at the 2021 All-Japan Apparatus Championships at the Takasaki Arena in Japan. Yulo, the world’s no. 1 gymnast in the floor exercises, got his podium finish with a month to go before the Tokyo Olympics, where he is slated to take part. The bronze finish boosted his confidence when he sees action in the individual all-around event in Tokyo next month. In claiming third-place honors, Yulo tallied a final score of 14.966, which came from a difficulty score of 6.400

and an execution tally of 8.566. Japanese Yusuke Tanaka and Kaito Sugimoto shared the gold medal with 15.400. Yulo, the 2019 Southeast Asian Games silver medalist in the apparatus, earlier settled for seventh place with 14.733 in the this event. The 4’9 Yulo, the second Filipino to qualify for the Tokyo Games, made it to the Olympics after advancing to the finals of the all-around in the 2019 World Artistic Gymnastics Championship in Stuttgart, Germany.

The Vietnamese planned to postpone this year’s SEA Games for next year, sending a proposal and survey to member countries as the country continued to struggle with a new coronavirus outbreak. “We discussed on plans on not to postpone (the SEA Games). But no decision yet. It is still up to the
government of Vietnam to decide .... It is up to the government of Vietnam to decide by next week,” said Tolentino, who is also a congressman representing the eighth district of Cavite. The regional meet is supposed be held in Hanoi and 11 other locations in six months’ time. But the Vietnam locations are at the epicenter of the fresh Covid-19 wave. The games’ events are set to take place in some of the worst affected provinces, including Bac Ninh and Bac Giang, located in the country’s northeast. For one, the badminton venue in Bac Giang has been turned into a field hospital. Virus cases have more than tripled in Vietnam since April to over 9,000.

Eala, Russian partner advance to French Open quarterfinals
The Philippines’ Alex Eala and her Russian partner Oksana Selekhmeteva
FILIPINA tennis phenom and Globe ambassador Alex Eala and Russian partner Oksana Selekhmeteva took a step closer to the title as they advanced to the quarterfinals of the 2021 French Open girls’ doubles tournament with a dominant, 6-3, 6-1 win over the pair of Sofia Costoulas of Belgium and Laura Hietaranta of Finland on Tuesday night at the Stade Roland-Garros in Paris, France. Eala and Selekhmeteva, who finished as runners-up in the W25 Platja D’Aro in Spain last month, were on top of their game and managed to wrap up the victory in just 57 minutes. Their opponents got the first game in the first set but that proved to be their high point as Eala and her Russian teammate broke
Costoulas and Hietaranta’s serve in the fifth, seventh and ninth game to nab the easy 6-3 first set win. With momentum clearly on their side, Eala and Selekhmeteva zoomed off to a 4-0 lead in the second before their opponents got on the board. Later, the 16-year old Filipina ace finished the game with a precise forehand winner that gave them the second set, 6-1, and the match. Eala, who is the world’s no. 3 ranked juniors player, and Selekhmeteva, who is ranked 10th, will take on either the pair of Barbara Palicova of the Czech Republic and Annabelle Xu of Canada, or the due of USA’s Qavia Lopez and French Mathilde NgijolCarre in the quarterfinals.
Asian neighbors. A budget of $69 million has been earmarked by the Vietnamese government for the games. The games are expected to attract nearly 20,000 participants, including about 7,000 athletes, from 11 countries. Authorities in Vietnam, which previously hosted the biennial meet back in 2003, has earlier implemented a “no vaccine, no participation” policy for the 2021 Games. As Tolentino and members of the general assembly now wait for the decision of the Vietnamese government, the POC chief said Filipino sports officials will still meet on the status of vaccination of national athletes and officials headed to the games and the plans to resume training for national athletes this July.
PSC okays PH athletes’ P46M budget for Olympics THE Philippine Sports Commission has earmarked P46.230 million to bolster the country’s medal drive in the coming Tokyo Olympics. The amount was approved Tuesday during the PSC board meeting based on the proposed budget of the Philippine Olympic Committee. PSC chairman Butch Ramirez said the sports agency is happy to accept and approve the said request reiterating the PSC’s commitment to support the national team’s effort to bring the best contingent possible to the Tokyo Olympics 2020+1 edition. It will cover the international airfare, hotel and accommodation and allowances of athletes and officials as well as the COVID-19 testing prior to departure, hotel quarantine expenses and insurance for COVID-19 treatment, travel and repatriation of the entire Philippine delegation. The POC’s proposal does not include the costs for other items such as flags, flaglets and pins, luggages, parade uniforms which would be needed should there be an opening and closing parade. The P46.230-million assistance is still subject to adjustment based on the actual participation of Filipino athletes, coaches and officials in Tokyo and to accounting and auditing rules. So far, nine Filipino athletes have officially qualified starring pole vault ace EJ Obiena, weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz, gymnast Carlos Yulo and boxers Nesthy Petecio, Carlo Paalam, Irish Magno and Eumir Marcial, taekwondo jin Kurt Barbosa and rower Cris Nievarez. US Open golf champion Yuka Saso and fellow golfers Bianca Pagdanganan and Juvic Pagunsan are likewise anticipated to make the cut and join Team Philippines in the July 23-Aug. 8 Summer Games as well as skateboarder Margielyn Didal.

Denver’s Jokic named 2021 NBA Most Valuable Player LOS ANGELES—Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic was named the NBA’s Most Valuable Player on Tuesday, completing a remarkable rise to the pinnacle of basketball after entering the league in 2014 as a lowly 41st draft pick. The 6ft 11in (2.10m) Serbian centre scooped the season MVP honours after a 2020/2021 campaign that has seen him average a career-best 26.4 points per game with 8.3 assists and 10.8 rebounds. “Stat wise, you know, I think this was my the best season of my life,” Jokic said shortly after the award was announced. “Kind of the cherry on the top is probably the trophy—so I think this is my the best season of my life.” The 26-yearold Jokic is the lowest draft pick ever to win the Nikola Jokic MVP, and the first player in Denver history to take the accolade. “To be honest, I didn’t even think of being in the NBA when I started to play basketball back home,” Jokic said. “It was playing Euro League, because that was kind of the closest top league to my country...But then the Denver Nuggets drafted me it was an opportunity for me to become an NBA player, and I think I did a good job of using that opportunity.” Jokic is the fifth international player to win the award after Hakeem Olajuwon (1994), Steve Nash (2005, 2006), Dirk Nowitzki (2007) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (2019, 2020). Jokic beat out competi tion from the Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry and Philadelphia 76ers ace Joel Embiid who were both finalists for the award. Jokic was instrumental in guiding Denver into the second round of the playoffs this season, finishing the regular season 47-25 despite injuries to key personnel including Jamal Murray, P.J. Dozier and Will Barton. Nuggets coach Michael Malone earlier this year praised Jokic for hitting the ground running in the new campaign despite a short off-season following last year’s pandemic disruption. AFP

Jazz overcome slow start to nip Clippers; Sixers win L OS ANGELES—Donovan Mitchell scored 45 points and Rudy Gobert made a clutch block at the buzzer as the Utah Jazz rallied to beat the Los Angeles Clippers 112-109 in the opening game of their NBA playoff series on Tuesday.
Mitchell scored 32 of his game high 45 in the second half, carrying the Jazz on his back offensively after the team got off to a sluggish start in the best-of-seven Western Conference second round series. “I let my team down in the first half,” Mitchell said. “They were kicking my butt. I said, ‘It is on me’. I had to set the tone and I did.” Game two is Thursday in Utah. Mitchell got help on the defensive end from France’s Gobert, who is in the running to win his third defensive player of the year award. Gobert helped sealed the win when he denied Clippers forward Marcus Morris’s three-point attempt at the final buzzer in front of the crowd of 18,007 at the Vivint Smart Home Arena. The Jazz defence smothered attempts by Kawhi Leonard and Paul George before the
ball ended up in the hands of Morris. Despite coming off a short rest after beating the Dallas Mavericks in seven games, the banged-up Clippers stormed out the gate and took a big lead by going on a 22-2 run in the first quarter. Los Angeles led 25-18 at the end of the first and by 13, 60-47, at the half. The Jazz had six days of rest between series and it took them half the game to shake off the rust, but when they finally got going in the third quarter they outscored the Clippers 32-19 to level the score 79-79 heading into the fourth. “We scrambled on the fly,” said Mitchell, who missed a month of the regular season with an ankle injury. “We did some things wrong and we are going to have to make some adjustments. We have to come to play every single day.” Bojan Bogdanovic and Jordan Clark-
Ilocos Norte boosts reputation as sports venue ILOCOS Norte is resolved in boosting its reputation not only as the top sportstourism capital of the north, but the entire country as well. The province has proven itself as a safe haven for teams to train, either professional or those from the Philippine delegation, even at this time of the pandemic that more and more are now looking to travel in the region and hold their bubble practices. PBA teams TNT Tropang Giga and Meralco are currently in their second part of bubble training in the capital city of Laoag where they hold scrimmages at the Laoag Centennial Arena, while the men and women’s beach volleyball teams have also been doing training camp for almost a month now at Villa Del Mar in Saud beach in Pagudpud, which Ilocos Norte Governor Matthew Manotoc said was recently named as the only Philippine beach to be included in the Most Beautiful Beaches in the World of Travel and Leisure. “Itong bubble naging opportunity nga,

Sun shining bright for Phoenix THE BOTTOM LINE LITO CINCO AS the action in the NBA Conference semifinals continues to heat up (pardon the pun), the sun is certainly shining bright in Phoenix. Before the season started, I was sure the Phoenix Suns were among the teams not considered to reach the finals, more so win the championship. Man for man, the other teams were ahead, but look where the Suns are now—a game ahead of the Denver Nuggets in their conference semifinals series. The first game was even a rout, 122105 win for the Suns. Ask any coach, it is very difficult to play against a team which believes in itself and the players play as one, brimming with confidence as they stride into the playing court, which is exactly the Suns are right now.
I believe critics will also say the same for the other contending teams like Utah, super team Brooklyn and Atlanta. As of this writing, as expected, the Nets were 2-0 against the Bucks, even without James Harden in the second game, which was a real blow out, 125–86. The Hawks of Trae Young, another perfect example of a team oozing with confidence, won Game 1 against the favored 76ers, with Utah yet to play the Clippers as I wrote this piece. Going back to the Suns, I believe because of the fact that very few people thought they would be where they are now is what makes the team even better. They are outdoing themselves, even booting out the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers in the quarterfinals. LA fans, though, would argue that without Anthony Davis, the Lakers were simply not the same, but then who cares? It is what it is and player injuries will always be a fact of life in any sport. The Suns’ duo of veteran Chris Paul and another All-Star Devin Booker have meshed perfectly. But I maintain that even
the weekly Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum online edition on Wednesday. The Philippine National Volleyball Federation is very much satisfied with the stay of the beach volleyball teams that associaif Booker is the face and the future of the franchise, right now, Paul is the one carrying the team. Just look at Game 1 of their series against the Nuggets, the younger players of the team have certainly embraced Paul as the team leader that he is. It is the way he controls the game and makes those pinpoint passes and near perfect midrange shots that make his teammates look up to him, and I would say that includes Booker even if he outscores Paul regularly. And talk about self confidence, the Suns had five players scoring in double figures, with Mikal Bridges even out-scoring his more illustrious teammates with 23 points. Every time I see a team, with five players all scoring in double figures, I am impressed. For the second game, the odds have shifted to the Suns. Paul and Booker and the rest of the supporting cast of the Phoenix will be able to show my readers how right I am after they win again the second game, I hope. Another surprise team in the semis are the Atlanta Hawks. This time, led by a younger player in Young, who has been accepted by his teammates, including the veterans remaining, as their uncontested team leader. Young certainly has earned that right with the way he has been playing the whole sea-
son chipped in 18 points each while Joe Ingles added eight points with seven assists in the win. The Jazz, who are missing all-star guard Mike Conley with an injury, have never lost to the Clippers in the postseason, having earned wins in 1992, 1997 and 2017. Conley’s availability for game two is uncertain. Leonard scored a team high 23 points and George added 20 for the Clippers, who didn’t have much time to celebrate a hard-earned and strange series win over the Mavericks in which neither home team won a game until game seven. Embiid stars Elsewhere, Joel Embiid scored a playoff career high 40 points and added 13 rebounds as the top-seeded Philadelphia 76ers toppled the Atlanta Hawks 118-102 to level their Eastern Conference series at one game each. Tobias Harris tallied 22 points, Seth Curry finished with 21 and five threes, and Shake Milton came off the bench to score 14 points as the Sixers reserves scored 26 points in the second half in front of a crowd of 18,600 at Wells Fargo Center. AFP tion President Ramon ‘Tats’ Suzara plans to send the men and women’s national indoor team for a separate training camp starting on June 15 as they prepare for the coming 31st Southeast Asian Games. Others are set to follow as well, including the handball team, according to Manotoc, son of champion golfer and basketball coach Tommy Manotoc and Senator Imee Marcos, “Hopefully, we can welcome more. We are a safe and comfortable destination,” according to the governor in the same session presented by San Miguel Corporation, MILO, Amelie Hotel Manila, Braska Restaurant, and the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation. “We want to establish Ilocos Norte as the sports tourism capital of the north. If there’s anyone interested and we have the facilities, I’m all for it. My real passion is sports.” Even pre-pandemic, Ilocos Norte hosted other national teams as they prepared for international meets like the canoe kayak squad which trained at the Paoay Lake for the 2019 SEA Games in Manila. And during the surge of COVID-19 cases last year, sports didn’t take a hit in the province, according to Manotoc,
son. And again, I would say the self confidence of the Suns can be matched by that of the Hawks who are now starting to believe they have what it takes to go all the way. The Nets are a different matter. They were expected to make good with their trio of superstars in Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Harden that even incomplete, they were winning games. I would say Durant led the way with the way he plays, he shoots and passes as needed without hogging the ball all the time and his co-superstars have adapted to that. Harden certainly is making his teammates look better with his assists. Now if there is a team that I will bet on to reach the finals, even win it, it would be Brooklyn, they are simply too strong. As for Utah and Los Angeles (Clippers), I have yet to see them play as of now. In the meantime, allow me the opportunity to update you with our Ayuda Sa Atleta campaign. We have exceeded already the P400,000 mark, including the seed fund of P250,000 from Jean Henri Lhuillier, and if we include the “in kind” donation and pledges, easily we are over the half a million worth already.

THE National Basketball Association (NBA) today announced the NBA Academy Women’s Virtual Program, an eight-week basketball and leadership development program for more than 40 of the top female, high-school age (14-17 years old) prospects from the outside the U.S. Participants will connect with their peers from around the world and take part in basketball and life skills development programming under the guidance of current and former WNBA players and the NBA Academy staff. Any parent or legal guardian interested in submitting an application on behalf of their child should submit their child’s HomeCourt profile or upload a skills video as outlined in the application form on the NBA Academy website by June 18. NBA Academy Women’s Virtual Program participants will be announced in June, with the program starting in July and running through August. As part of the program’s on-court curriculum, participants will receive weekly virtual basketball lessons, instructions and challenges featuring current and former WNBA players. The interactive lessons will include a variety of shooting, ball handling and conditioning drills to promote holistic skill development. The top performing athletes will be considered for future in-person basketball development camps and showcases. The life skills programming will feature weekly sessions centered on leadership development, nutrition, goal setting, personal branding, mental health and wellness, player pathway education and women’s empowerment. Sessions will feature guest speakers and experts from across the NBA and WNBA family, including NBA Academy Women’s Program Global Technical Director and 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist Jennifer Azzi. “The NBA Academy Women’s Virtual Program will continue our mission of helping young women around the world develop as people and players,” said Azzi. “International players are making a significant impact at all levels of the women’s game, and this program will help top international prospects connect with their peers, learn directly from WNBA players and continue their development.” who is also partner with Marvin Espiritu as sports agents of the Espiritu-Manotoc Basketball Management (EMBM) “We hosted three stages of the Ilocos Cycling Tour all during the COVID-19 pandemic. No untoward incidents happened,” said the governor, who added over 800 people participated in the last stage. “I’ve been a firm supporter of resuming sports kahit may COVID. Sa akin it’s as important as education,” Manotoc said in the same Forum powered by Smart and Upstream Media as official webcast partner. “I have been lobbying for face-to-face classes and I also lobby for some sort of sports activities for every person kasi kailangan na kailangan natin ito.” Manotoc said the province can also be a training shelter for water sports such as surfing with its vast beaches and lakes as well as biking, and marathon. He also welcomes hosting in the future such international meets like the Asian Beach Games “So long as we can fulfill our responsibilities and requirements, because because we know sports tourism is very crucial,” added Manotoc. tle Philippines (MILO products), Pepsico (Gatorade ), Asian Centre for Insulation of co-trustee Tom Carrasco, Philippine Couriers, owned by another trustee Alex Wang, Foton with Rommel Sy Tin, F2 Logistics and its president Efren Uy, and Britton Pharmaceuticals, and Biocare Lifesciences, for their vitamins’ pledges.

Tom will take care of coordinating with the different National Sports Associations on the matter. At the same time, he will make a report to the General Assembly of the Philippine Olympic Committee. Finally, me and the rest of the team can rest now, knowing in our own little way, we were able to extend a helping hand to our athletes. Again, thanks to all the donors and companies.

HIDILYN DIAZ
is a modern-day warrior in new online campaign The silver medalist weightlifter athlete Hidilyn Diaz talks about her preparation for the coming Summer Olympics, her mission for the country, and being a ‘mandirigma’ in the modern world.
T
HIS pandemic has witnessed the rise of modern-day heroes, from frontliners to ordinary citizens with extraordinary contributions to our community. They and the thousand many others who exhibit courage and strength in facing life’s many adversities are the true treasures of society. They make living in the new normal bearable. Best of all, they give everyone hope for the future of humanity. In honor of their meaningful contributions, Alaxan FR, a trusted brand of pain reliever, launched the ‘Mandirigmonth’ campaign to recognize the men and women who exemplify hard work and perseverance despite the many
hurdles that test their endurance and resilience. They are the ones who live out the #LabanLang spirit. These individuals received Laban Lang Gears containing essentials that will empower them in their commute or work to triumph over the
challenges that come their way. And while on the topic of the modernday warrior, celebrated weightlifter and Alaxan FR brand ambassador Hidilyn Diaz is one shining example of having triumphed over adversities and successfully bringing pride to the country. True warrior Fresh from her recent win at the Asian Weightlifting Championship held in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, Hidilyn is in high spirits as she talked about her latest feat. “Akala ko noong una, imposibleng magkaroon ng laro, imposibleng makaalis sa Malaysia, imposible na makaka-apak ako sa international platform, at imposible na ma-meet ko ang 6th Olympic qualifying competition na required para makapag-
Phone phenom EVEN in this age of interconnectivity and technology-driven work, tossing a story of a hit song recorded via just a YUGEL smartphone still sounds like LOSORATA a fictional plot. Yet, that is exactly what happened to Rob Deniel whose breakthrough single “Ulap” became a smash hit as the pandemic surged last year. A meticulous musician may find his recording crude and wanting. But who cares; the song, labeled “bedroom jazz” by who else but the 17-year-old dude himself, has already amassed more than 22 million streams on Spotify as of this writing, with its lyric video uploaded eight months ago by SuperbLyrics YouTube channel generating the same gigantic number for its view count. Perhaps he’s a famous face or the son of a media mogul. Nope. He was unknown and wrote “Ulap” “out of boredom” in his room designed with proper acoustics and adorned with a Beatles poster. “I was just writing words that I wanted to say. You could say that the whole song was made subconsciously,” he said of his unexpected hit eventually used in Vivamax series Parang Kayo Pero Hindi. In my interview with him, I mused that he should keep that phone where he recorded the song that introduced him to music fans and proved that his father made a wise decision giving him a guitar as a gift when he was 12. Previously Rob wanted to be a basketball player. “Ulap” became that big shot for the win. The track was released on Sept. 13, 2020, or six months after the pandemic turned things weirder and more uncertain. A week before that his actual debut called “Baby I Tried,” which sounded like a throwback tune, was dropped in digital stores. That same month came a third single titled “Gabi.” Such pacing further reflected Rob’s natural flair for doing things raw and quick. It certainly worked for him. “The support from my family and the people who have listened to my songs really do help in keeping my good mental
qualify ako sa Summer Olympics… With man this is impossible, but with God, all things are possible,” shared Hidilyn who finished 4th place in the competition with a record lift of 94kg in snatch and 118kg in clean and jerk. Perhaps unknown to many, Hidilyn and her team of coaches were stranded in Malaysia since the first quarter of last year after its government declared a national lockdown because of the pandemic. She was all set to fly to Colombia to compete at the Ibero-America Open Championships 2020, supposed to be her final Olympic qualifying competition, but all borders have been closed, competitions were either postponed or canceled, and athletes were sent home. “Mahirap na part noong nangyari ang lockdown all over the world, ‘di namin alam ang gagawin, kung ano ang next move. Wala rin kaming kilala dito sa Malaysia, walang connection, ‘di namin alam ang lugar, at ano ang mga bawal at pwede… Then syempre, during this moment, ‘di maiwasan na magka-anxiety, mag-overthink, may takot at na-miss ang pamilya…”
Unable to return to the Philippines, they were also faced with the big dilemma of how to continue her training. The answer came to them in the form of spacious parking lots, big plastic gallons filled with water, and heavy metal gates. These have become her gym, weights, and monkey bars. “Gagawin ang lahat basta makapagtraining. From gallons of water naging bag na may laman ng gallons of water during the lockdown,” said Hidilyn remembering how she and her coaches became creative in finding ways to train and to stay on track towards their journey to the Olympics. She continued, “Not being able to train and being stuck at home quarantine has been very difficult for me. But I must stay proactive and find ways to keep moving… Tuloy ang laban dahil mandirigma tayo.” Check out Hidilyn Diaz’s video on the Alaxan Facebook page (https://www. facebook.com/AlaxanFastRelief) and leave your message of support for the country's Olympics champion. You may also share your Laban Lang moments and be models of resilience and triumph to others. Full story on manilastandard.net

state,” Rob implied, showing again that music as an outlet is not a bad way of dealing with this pandemic, especially for a person who must be missing the all-out parties and youth gatherings this global situation can’t yet afford to allow. The surprise hit teen’s most recent single “Ang Rosas” is currently making the rounds of what is dubbed as “chill and feels” playlist circuit. A new single titled “Darling, Darling” will be released next week. He said that it is a track serving as “an advice for myself and about the experiences I’ve had so far.” Well, Rob has always kept himself busy learning more about music and internalizing things so he has much to dig from. He’s a multi-instrumentalist playing guitar, drums and keyboards. Viva Records had come to his aid and informed industry people that he was given the floor to “write his songs and not get in his way.” Oh, that meant nobody’s taking the hit-making phone of this boy in cloud nine.

TV5 redefines television dynamics in new station ID AT A time when most have been forced to shut themselves in and many businesses have had no choice but to close down, TV5 has redefined television dynamics by opening its doors to talents and creatives from different networks and giving them a new home. “Iba sa 5,” TV5’s station ID launched at the later part of May, features the different celebrities and diverse personalities who now thrive on the channel as they come together to produce quality entertainment that brings joy to the viewers. The station ID features a catchy jingle composed by Jeff Arcilla, the man behind "Apat na Buwang Pasko" and the original singer of the World Youth Day Song, "Tell the World of His Love." The upbeat and cheerful song evokes how TV5 is the Filipinos’ happy place, where they can take a fun break from the challenges of the current situation. The new line, “Iba sa 5,” doesn’t just mean offering something different, but something for different kinds of people. The ad agency, Grey Philippines, spent months collaborating with TV5 executives to develop a reinvigorated campaign that conveys the channel’s new thrust. Dino Laurena, Chief Operating Officer of Media5, explains, "The concept behind it is to showcase the wide range of programs and genres that TV5 now provides the Filipino audience. Since TV5's transition back to entertainment, it has now become a one-stop channel for all
types of content—dramas, gameshows, talent shows, variety, movies, series, news, and sports. Viewers can just tune in to TV5 and find all these there." Whether solo binge-watching with a bucket of popcorn, having a barkada sports night, or spending a relaxing Sunday with the whole family, TV5 caters to audiences of all demographics. Those who always want to be in the know can get their first dose of the day's news from Frontline sa Umaga, then be the first to get the information they need from the earliest primetime news program, Frontline Pilipinas. Because Pinoys are known for their love of both music and comedy, they can sing and laugh in equal measure, with Sing Galing.

T IS like living in a luxury hotel but you don’t need to check in or check out because the place is yours.
Real estate developer Federal Land, Inc. brings the hotel lifestyle to its twotower condominium in North Bonifacio Global City. Together with Japan’s Orix Corporation, the company launches Grand Hyatt Manila Residences, the first and only Grand Hyatt branded residences in Southeast Asia. Grand Hyatt Manila Residences is located within Federal Land’s mixed-use luxury township Grand Central Park, where its neighbors include five-star hotel Grand Hyatt Manila, five premium residential towers, and a soon-to-open Mitsukoshi Mall – the first in the Philippines. The towers were designed following the style of the New York-inspired community, with a glass facade that minimizes ultraviolet rays and glimmers at night. Catering to the demand for more space, the low-density Grand Hyatt Manila Residences South Tower offers 188 residential units in two-bedroom (ranging from 120 to 143 square meters) and three-bedroom (205 to 394 square meters) configura-

What to expect at the soon-to-rise Edsa busway concourses The Edsa Busway Concourse project aims to provide commuters a safe and convenient way to board and alight buses.
THE Department of Transportation and SM Prime Holdings, Inc. in May announced the building of three busway concourses along Edsa. The Edsa Busway Concourse project, whose construction has started this month, is located at SM Mall of Asia, SM Megamall, and SM North Edsa. These concourses aim to provide commuters a safe and convenient way to board and alight Edsa Busway units. But what else can we look forward to these infrastructures, which are expected to be completed within 10 months?
Ticketing booths, elevators, and more
Each concourse will have a concierge, ticketing booths, and automatic fare collection system turnstiles which will allow passengers to pay for their fares before boarding the buses—like how it’s done at train stations. Ramps and elevators are included in the design to provide easy access for commuters, especially persons with disability, senior citizens, and pregnant women. There will be access bridge facilities near the three SM Supermalls. In addition to funding the construction of the concourses and bridgeways, SM says it will ensure security and maintenance for the safety and convenience of passengers and pedestrians.
Traditional bamboo design
Each busway concourse (SM Mall of Asia, SM Megamall, SM North Edsa) will have a concierge, ticketing booths, and automatic fare collection system turnstiles.
Based on the proposal of busway advocate and Green EDSA Movement chairman Eduardo Yap, the concourses will feature a blend of functionality, aesthetics, and “green principles”. With traditional bamboo construction as inspiration, tubular steel frames simulate the flexibility and strength of bamboo, while the flanking planting strips provide openness The design is inspired by traditional bamboo construction, combining beauty and function and greenery, serving as a buffer area with a touch of Filipino identity. between the walkways and the edges bamboo structures.

Pedestrians get to walk through natural elements.
A GLOBAL survey conducted this year found that more than one-fifth or 23 percent of respondents from the Philippines bought more houseplants within the past 12 months. The amount of time people spend indoors seems directly proportional to their interest in being plant parents. Forty-three percent of those surveyed believe they have gotten better at caring for houseplants in the past year, while almost half (49 percent) of them are interested in learning more about caring for their potted friends. One of the ways people are tending to plants nowadays is by playing plant-friendly music. During the past 12 months, streams of Spotify’s “Music for Plants” playlist grew nearly 1,400 percent. The theory that the vibrations of audio content can stimulate growth in plants has been around since the ‘70s. Spotify’s Music for Plants playlists offers mellow vibrations from 100 tracks, including those by Philip Norman Watson, GreenHouse, Bob Boilen, Christopher Stracey, Hiroshi Yoshimura, and more. The music and soundscapes, Spotify said, were carefully handpicked to help encourage growth. Listening data showed that morning is the most popular time for Spotify users to play audio to their plants from the playlist, and the audience data found one in 10 of people worldwide has tried using audio content (music or podcasts) to care for their plants in the past year, while one in five has been talking to their houseplants more. Many users of the music streaming platform also created their own plant playlists (over 2.9 million to date), with the most popular houseplant that saw playlists created for it worldwide being

Jasmine, followed by Ivy and Vanda. Popular song picks for plant playlists include “Ivy” by Frank Ocean, “Such Great Heights” by Iron and Wine, “BUTTERFLY EFFECT” by Travis Scott, “Mr. Brightside“ by The Killers, “Garden (Say It Like Dat)” by SZA, “Here Comes the Sun - Remastered 2009” by The Beatles, “Secret Garden” by Bruce Springsteen, “Three Little Birds” by Bob Marley and The Wailers, “Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran, “Rose Garden” by Lynn Anderson, and “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac.
