Army on track in making Samar, N. Samar insurgency-free by 2016

TACLOBAN CITY The Philippine Army is on track of making the provinces of Samar and Northern Samar insurgent-free by 2016, an official said. Capt. Amado Gutierrez, spokesman of the Philippine Armys 8th Infantry Division, is optimistic of putting the two economically-depressed provinces in the category of manageable conflict-affected areas ready for development in the next two years. We have two full years to achieve that. This is attainable since our bayanihan program has reached majority of barangays in Samar and Northern Samar, Gutierrez told Leyte Samar Daily Express. Bayanihan program brings the delivery services to hinterland villages, mostly infested by the New Peoples Army (NPA), which cannot be accessed by national government agencies due to poor infrastructure. Under its internal security plan, the Army believed that insurgency is largely driven by structural problems in the country, such as unequal development, non-delivery of basic services, injustice, and poor governance. We want to bridge these gaps in two Samar provinces through bayanihan, he said. By 2016, we cannot say that the insurgency problem will be completely gone but the degree of influence will be manageable. Of the six provinces in Region 8, four have already been declared as insurgent-free, these are Biliran, Eastern Samar, Leyte, and Southern Leyte. The latest province to ear the recognition was Eastern Samar on March 26, this year. The Army official could not give not give an estimate of the strength of the insurgents operating in Samar since many of them come to Samar from Bicol and move back to Bicol. The absence of road networks in the triboundaries of the island and lack of education, make people vulnerable to the influence of communist-rebels. Samar and Northern Samar registered the lowest simple literacy rates in Eastern Visayas at 85.4% and 88.3%, respectively, according to the National Statistics Office. In its website, the communist group claimed that in series of operation in the last quarter of 2012, 15 soldiers were killed, eight government troopers were wounded and two rifles seized. Those who launched the attacks were red fighters of Efren Martires Command in Samar and Rodante Urtal Command in Northern Samar. The latest clash between government and rebels was reported last Friday resulting to the militarys recovery of two powered firearms in Pinabacdao, Samar. No casualties were reported on either side. Two months ago, two rebels who were extorting candidates were killed by soldiers in Catbalogan City. Gutierrez said that even if the two areas will be deaddressing the insurgency problem in the province. The government is sincere in bringing peace and development in the barangays unlike what the NPAs are doing, they took advantage of the peoples hard earned resources to support their revolutionary struggle, Vistuir, in a press statement, said. Just like Moreno, Col. Vestuir also calls for the remaining NPA regulars to lay down their arms and avail the current programs of the government that could help them as they return to the mainstream of our society. We welcome and help those who choose to live in peace, but we will

clared as insurgent-free, Army strength will remain in the island to sustain the insurgent-free status. The Army is also counting on the completion of Samar Roads for Peace and Development. Among these are the opening of Gandaranot hesitate to use the full strength of our forces to those who continue to threaten the people that we are bound to serve. Vestuir stressed. Meanwhile, Capt. Amado Gutierrez, spokesperson of the Armys 8th Infantry Division based in Catbalogan City said the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) is offering cash incentives and livelihood programs to members of the New Peoples Army (NPA) who surrender with their firearms under its Guns for Peace Program. Gutierrez said the AFP will pay P200,000 for light machine guns, P60,000 for M-14

Former NPA commander calls on former comrades to return to the fold of the law
CATBALOGAN CITY New Peoples Army commander Lemuel Moreno alyas Ka Kulas on Sunday (June 23) appealed to his comrades and followers up in the mountains to give up their hopeless armed struggle and returns to folds. It is time for us to return (to the folds of law) because the people that we believe to be our mass base would no longer support us, Moreno,in an statement said as he addressed his fomrer comrades while he was still the squad leader of NPAs Section Committee 2, Front Committee 2 (FC2) of the Northern Samar Provincial Party Committee (NSPPC). Together with his wife Nida Lugares Moreno alias Ka Mina, medical officer of same underground movement, he contacted the military base and surrendered two caliber .45 pistols, two magazines with four rounds of ammos last June 13. It is very hard for us living in the mountains, with so much running from the government forces, we barely sleeps peacefully, the NPA leader confessed. The other day (June 23), 803rd deputy brigade commander Col. Mario Lacurom, in the presence of Bobon town Mayor Rene Celespara and other military officials handed over an amount of P50, 000 to the NPA couple during a simple ceremony at Barangay Trojillo, Bobon, Northern Samar. For his part, Lt. Colonel Noel Vistuir, commander of the 20IB, said they are now exerting all efforts in ensuring peace as well as

assault rifle, P50,000 for Colt M-16 armalite rifle, and P40,000 for M-203 grenade launcher. He added that aside from cash assistance, the former rebels may also avail government livelihood programs and other benefits under the Comprehensive Local Integration Program. The AFP Guns for Peace Program is a transition mechanism that is also open to other armed threat groups.

BIR directive bars media, others from getting official data from agency
TACLOBAN CITY New directive of the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) bars anyone, including media practitioners, to get official data from their regional office, unless approved by no less than Commissioner Kim Jacinto-Henares. Surprisingly, BIR officials repeatedly declined interview requests from this writer, who have been gathering and publishing revenue collection performance of the BIR Eastern Visayas in the past 10 years. Hilda Tecson, BIR information officer, said in a text message that the regional office is not anymore allowed to release official figures in strict compliance to Revenue Memorandum Order (RMO) No. 11-2012, issued April 22, 2013 by the Henares. The regional office also holds off the conduct of its quarterly media dialogue where they announce revenue collection performance of the regions six revenue district offices. But even prior to the issuance of the new order, the office staff of BIR Regional Director Diosdado Mendoza have denied interview request saying that the quarterly press conference is the proper forum for media to raise questions. This writer, who had regularly interviewed then BIR Eastern Visayas Regional Directors Alfredo Misajon, Sonia Flores, Estrella Martinez and Alert Alocilja was told by Mendozas staff that their boss does not entertain media interviews in his office. This year, the BIR held its press conferences in February 27 to inform candidates on submission of election expense and in April 15 to raise awareness on income the tax filing deadline. BIR held its latest press briefing a week before the issuance of RMO 11-2013. With the implementation of the new RMO, the media will be deprived from getting collection data without approval of the BIR Commissioner. All requests for official information or documents from the BIR made by any government office, department, bureau, agency and instrumentality; or by private entities shall be addressed to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, the RMO said. Request submitted to other BIR offices should be transmitted to the commissioners office. All responses to request should be coursed through the Commissioner. BIR officials who will violate the policy will be penalized for illegal disclosure, gross neglect of duty, and unauthorized production of information. (SARWELL Q.

TACLOBAN CITY This season is the perfect time to go green, thus the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has called on the public to take advantage of the weather and plant more trees in aid of the governments National Greening Program (NGP). DENR-8 regional information officer Purificacion Daloos said that today, June 25, is Arbor Day and is geared towards the effort of getting back the countrys forests. We enjoin both public and private sectors to commemorate Arbor Day by participating in the nationwide simultaneous tree planting activities, Daloos said. About 11 offices of the community environment and natural resources (CENRO) and six provincial environment and natural resources (PENRO) will coordinate with their respective stakeholders for the conduct of the ac-

tivity. Today, employees of the DENR regional office, CENRO Palo, Leyte and the Leyte Provincial ENRO will troop to Barangay Caibaan, Tacloban City to plant at least 400 seedlings of narra and mahogany at the Caibaan Community Based Forest Management project site. This is part of the effort of DENR in the region to plant more trees under the NGP. The NGP seeks to reforest some 1.5 billion trees on 1.5 million hectares of government-selected lots from this year until 2016. The program covers just part of roughly eight million hectares of Philippine forestland that is currently open and degraded. Arbor Day is a holiday in which individuals and groups are encouraged to plant and care for trees. It originated in Nebraska City, Nebraska, United States in 1872.

But Galenzoga, who reportedly has bunches of evidence that the election in Baybay was allegedly tainted with fraud, stands firm that she is the real winner duly elected by over 25,000 votes in the last May 13, 2013 midterm elections. She said she will not back off even an inch in her fight to unseat Mayor Cari. According to Galenzoga, the CBOC led by city election officer Susan Collamar hurriedly proclaimed Cari even if the votes that was electronically transmitted thru the PCOS machines was only 25 percent.

Proclamation No. 396 enjoined the active participation of all government agencies, including government-owned and controlled corporations, private sector, schools, civil society groups and the citizenry in tree planting activity.

What embassy?

omen OFWs who have been trapped with serious dilemma in hostile countries where they are being maltreated by their employers, or are having conicts with their agencies, are into more dehumanizing experiencesthe harrowing experience of prostitution. But what is most painful is that, they are driven to this trade not so much by need, or by their employers beastly lusts, but by their abusive countrymen themselves who are supposed to provide them with necessary protection and assistance in those foreign lands. Running for their lives, they seek shelter in our embassies there believing that it will ensure their survival only to nd out later that some embassy people are already selling them to prostitution. These embassy ofcials, instead of helping them come back home safely, are allegedly taking advantage of their hopeless condition by acting as pimps. They would accordingly solicit customers for these desperate ladies in return for a share of the proceeds. And the benet

earned by the victims are not limited to cash, which is very minimal anyway; it may include a mere plane ticket back home, or what they call sex for ight scheme. See the picture here? Our decent women would go overseas in search of greener pasture that could augment their family income, only to end up in a most humiliating and embarrassing situation. They get out of the country to avoid economic hardships, but there in those places, they get brutalized not just by poverty but by the devastating impact of prostitution as well, courtesy of our very good albeit selected embassy ofcials there. The present administration in its pursuit for matuwid na landas must look into this. Those who are found guilty must not only be dismissed from work; they should also be charged in court and slapped with severe penalties so that their successors will not follow their footsteps in the future, for the welfare of our overseas women workers.

Donnas choices
I havent written anything about my eldest daughter, Donna, though I should have done so for quite a number of reasons, and more so with my bent to scribble anything under the sun. Well, Im doing it nownow that Im already sending her to college. It seems just yesterday, as a clich would have it, that she came to our home. Having her for my rstborn, I was of course so excited to welcome her. But my excitement was just greeted by her seemingly endless appetite to sleep. Her tiny, frail body appeared too pressing her thoughts, particularly in the presence of many people. She seems to have a world of her own, oftentimes deep in thought, and is doing her own thing that the rest of us in the house could not understand. As regards house chores, you cant count on her. Her performance is no good, reason why for several occasions, we accused her of being so irresponsible. An open faucet, for instance, could ood the entire house with water; or a kettle of rice could burn endlessly on the to page 6

That was ituntil now, she is not that physically active. Her movements are too slow unless compelled to move otherwise. This, to me,

has been a problem, and I would usually say some heated words especially when Im in haste and her snail-like movements are delaying me. As if to add fuel to the re, she developed this extreme shyness that deprives her to assume a more active role in social activities. She has difculty in approaching people, in ex-

A Different Kind of Gift

Her composure remains the gift of gentleness, compassion and sense of gratitude in spite of these events. Seeing a friend through a period of grief can be difcult. ... In addition to intense feelings of sadness, I can associate with her journey. Differently sad, my mind drifted how would I be in the same predicament. Looking up to high heavens, we all have our own journey to complete. It is just a matter of time. I am sure, our time will come too. Parting ways, I told her that the owers will come tomorrow, Although there is nothing more depressing than owers for the dead, this time I know she needs these owers more for her dead brother. All the same, happy birthday friend.

Sto. Nio SPED Center at 25

Time swiftly goes by that unnoticeably one of Eastern Visayas prime school of character and academic excellence is now 25 years old. Sto. Nio SPED Centers silver anniversary, though celebrated not in a pompous manner, is indicative of how the denizens in Tacloban City and nearby towns patronize the institution which is highly regarded for constancy in quality education. It is known, too, to have yielded alumni who are now making their own imprints in their respective eld of endeavor and profession. But this feat the school administration has been claiming it owed to the Almighty God for guidance and blessing. As of now, there are more than 800 pupils enrolled at SNSC from Kindergarten school to Grade Six as well as in the Special Education Class for the physically impaired and Children with Special Needs. Of this number too, part of each grade school level is categorized Special Science Education Section that primarily accommodates the intellectually adept but below-age pupils. Established in June 1988, SNSC has produced graduates who likewise made good in their higher educational pursuits, some of whom left the portals of their alma mater in the secondary and tertiary levels with ying colors. Quite a number of the students who joined various competitions annually also got the chance to bring home the bacon. This proves that SNSC does not only have dedicated and zealous teachers but students whose brainpower is at par if not better than the cream of the crop of other schools across the archipelago. Moreover, SNSC is a consistent awardee in the implementation of Brigada Eskwela, an annual program of the Dept. of Education every school opening. This is attributed to the support given by stakeholders, the nearby community, the students and the parentsteachers association. Speaking of the homeschool cooperation, a substantial share of the physical improvement that now dons the school campus and its facilities is upshot of the collaboration among the key players in these two sectors. The Homeroom PTA and General PTA in SNSC play pivotal role in making the school ambience conducive to excellent learning. The good thing about the composition of the GPTA board of directors of SNSC is that a certain number of the members of the board will leave ahead after two

As I woke up this morning, I was guarding myself against children who may pitch water on me. Surprisingly, there was none. Isnt it the feast of St. John the Baptist today? Since her name is Joan, I am sure she is St. Johns counterpart. Today, she is soaked with tears and not the festive waters of San Juan. The sort of spiritual tests that would make her faith stronger than ever. Robust in faith, instead of the traditional gift-giving,

I gave her a different kind of gift the concern for a grieving friend. Her brother has joined our Creator. Her uncle is at the ICU while another baby nephew needs intensive care also at a public hospital. The family anchor and breadwinner, she needs more than that. As I consoled her in silence, for fear of saying the wrong words, I just whispered, Jo, your tests are blessings to me and I knew she knew what I meant.

Heat spurs

Like all basketball fans around and across the globle, folks of my home barangay that is San Antonio in the progressive and developing town of Basey under the leadership of reelected mayor Atty. Junji Ponferrada, were treated with a classic championship series of basketball in the just concluded finals of the prestigious National Basketball Association. The following went divided with no love lost between the clashing teams that gave everything for the coveted 2013 NBA Championship title. Ours is a place that uniquely fell between the contending teams vying for the NBA Championship trophy as folks from our place that left for the big city to pursue opportunities, gravitated to settle in a place along a short street named Miami in the district of Cubao in Quezon City. Both places are linked by a people with familial roots sharing goals and aspirations for the barangay of their birth, their native home that is San

Antonio. It may be providential that the first migrants from San Antonio to the big city fell in that place called Miami, which later became the place to go to for those who went to immigrate to the cities in the national capital. It did not take long for our folks to swell in numbers, in time building a community as they found Miami their home place in the city. The area became the quick destination for those who decide to search for their luck in the big city as they would easily find hospitable reception and comfortable company with folks they know by acquaintance or blood relations. With folks settling in that place along that short street named Miami, they came up with a consensus to also make San Antonio de Padua their patron Saint. Back home, we would learn the festive cooperation among people of our barangay who live in Manila and the neighboring towns and provinces, as they celebrate the feast in honor of our patron Saint, San Antonio de

Padua. The celebration in Miami was set simultaneously with our barangay fiesta which is every 13th of June. Many of our folks who could find means to take a journey home would join the celebration of the feast of San Antonio de Padua, joining our people in giving honor to our miraculous wonder worker. Those who cannot take a journey home would find grace in thanking our patron Saint as there too is a celebration in that place in Quezon City called Miami on the same day of the fiesta in San Antonio. When San Antonio bagged the western conference crown, it brought so much expectation that a final series with Miami was in the offing. While San Antonio took a breeze into the NBA finals by routing Memphis Grizzlies opponents via four straight wins. The road for Miami was rough and tough as it had to reach the finals in seven games against the Indiana Pacers. With the finals going into a close encounter, our folks had a full sports entertainment with a classic basketball match that fell within the days of the fiesta celebration, both in San Antonio and in Miami where the feast in honor of San Antonio de Padua is celebrated simultaneously on the 13th of June in places that are apart but closely linked simply by heat spurs.

THE GOLDEN RULE

Jesus said to his disciples, Do not give what is holy to dogs, or throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them underfoot, and turn and tear you to pieces. Do to others whatever you would have them do to you. This is the law and the prophets. Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are many. How narrow the gate and constricted the road that leads to life. And those who nd it are few.

A NARROW GATE AND ONLY A FEW WILL FIND IT.

Tobit in the Old Testament had already advised his son, Tobias, do to no one what you would not want done to you. It has been called the Golden Rule, and the world would be a happier place if all tried to observe it. But Jesus raises the standard by making the rule positive: Treat others as you would like them to treat you. It is an invitation to take the initiative in loving, not just in self-defense. We are coming to the end of the Sermon on the Mount, and Jesus is under no illusions about the difculties of his path for the natural man. The way of Jesus leads through a gate too narrow for the pride of the Pharisees, the avarice of the rich, the sensuality of the many. Jesus urges us not to follow the wide and spacious road that leads to perdition. It is the road of the crowd that so many of the media tempt us to follow. So often the road of the god mammon. The motive that Jesus gives us elsewhere for entering the narrow gate is: for my sake and the gospel. He who follows me does not walk in darkness.

stove, but she would not bother to stop all this, as if she were blind to the outside world. Fortunately, when it comes to school work like home readings and other assignments, she doesnt have to be told. Since her pre-school, she never bothered to ask us about how to do a thing in her workbooks; she did them all, patiently and almost perfectly. And her grades? Oh my, they were all very good, except in cases when a teacher made an error in computations. But again, her shyness prevailed, and she would not compete with those who excelled in class. Somehow, it seemed to us that when it comes to household responsibilities, she is almost of no use; but as regards her studies, she has been accomplishing meritorious achievements that make us, her parents, very proud. After graduating as valedictorian at the Leyte Normal University-Integrated Laboratory School,

she made it to Philippine Science High School for being one of the morethan-a-thousand passers only out of the 22,000 plus nationwide takers who took the very difficult entrance test of that elite school. She was in fact one of the three top scorers from Region 8 reserved

for the Diliman main campus, but we did not allow her to stay away from us that time; she had to study at Pilsay, Eastern Visayas campus. Four years passed, and she again needed to take entrance tests, this time for college. She took that of UP and Ateneo and passed both. Now, she is at UP Diliman, her choice, taking up a program that, again, we could not understand chemical engineering. We could only hope and pray that she will survive there,

social welfare officer of the Citys Social Welfare Office, as member. Their composition was not as required under the Comelec resolution and therefore illegal that was meant to ensure my defeat in spite of the great number of votes I garnered against Cari, Galenzoga added. Galenzoga further claimed that the sudden change of the CBOC composition, as per Atty. Avito is held in honor of the feast of Senor. Sto. Nino, the patron of Tacloban City and Leyte. The star-studded search had king of talk show Boy Abunda and beauty-queen turned Pateros Councilor Daisy Reyes as judges. Present during the yearly search were Palo Mayor Remedios Matin Petilla, Palo Councilor Wilson Uy, Evelina Acebedo, Eugene Tan and other Pintados executives, politicians and businessmen. (VICKY C. ARNAIZ)

Cahig, legal counsel of Cari, was allegedly approved by then Comelec Regional Director Veronico Petalcorin, via a cellular phone made to Collamar. In a separate press statement Collamar denied the allegations of Galenzoga saying that no untoward incident took place in her jurisdiction during the elections. A certificate of proclamation printed on huge tarpaulins posted near the City Hall, indicates a 30,618 votes for while Galenzoga had only 15,421 votes. In contrary, Galenzoga claimed that Comelec-Manila, NAMFREL, and the national transparent server showed a consolidated vote counts of 25,851 votes for her, while Cari had only 20, 658 votes or a 5, 193 votes margin in favor of Galenzoga. On the proclamation document that circulated on media allegedly coming

from the Comelec en banc declaring Galenzoga as winner, she said it was another manipulation of her political opponents meant to divert the talks on her (Caris) creation of an illegal CBOC, which they will then hurl to me as the one creating a confusion- and which they just did, Galenzoga said.

Last June 19 and 20, Galenzoga led her supporters in a rally staged against MBCs Radyo Natin here where announcements of Collamar

and Mayor Cari were being aired, and at the City Hall respectively. A big rally is expected to happen on July 1 against Mayor Cari. (FRED
