ASF in Ma-a? • But LGU assures that slaughterhouse case “isolated”
THE DAVAO City Veterinarian’s Office has imposed even more stringent measures to prevent the resurgence of African Swine Fever (ASF) in Davao City. This, after a pig slaughtered at the Ma-a slaughterhouse tested positive for the virus during a post-mortem inspection last June 20, 2022. In an interview with Davao City Veterinarian’s posed of properly.

‘Small’ problem: Abellera Jr. left without committee membership P300-K cigarettes, shabu seized at two checkpoints BY RHODA GRACE B. SARON
ANOTHER more than P300,000 worth of smuggled tobaccos and shabu were intercepted by the personnel of the Task Force Davao at the Sirawan and Lasang checkpoints on July 5. Capt. John Louie Demaala, the Task Force Davao spokesperson, said at around 10:35 am, the authorities arrested four individuals car-
rying a total of 550 reams of smuggled Canon menthol cigarettes with an estimated street value of P275,000 inside a metallic gray Toyota Fortuner with plate number LGB 881 at the Eden checkpoint in Toril. The suspects were identified as Al-Sarif S Nuh, 22 years old, married; Alyasid S Nuh, 34, married; Jole A Arad,
45; and Juluie Jie Sahisa, 19, single, all residents of 1st Crumb St., Purok Centennial, Zone 1, Digos City. The suspects reportedly violated Republic Act 4712, an act amending certain sections of tariffs and customs code of the Philippines. Barely 15 minutes later, the personnel of TF Davao

Family cries for justice for slay of 19-year-old student THE FAMILY of a 19-yearold grade 9 student who was shot to death by a doctor assigned to the Davao Police Regional Office is calling for justice for the killing. On the “Justice for Amier Mangacop” Facebook page, the post said Amierkhan Pulalon Mangacop, 19-year-old student (contrary to some news reports saying he was 21), was shot seven times outside Lugar Café and Bar reportedly by Marvin Rey Andrew R. Pepino, the 31-year-
old non-uniformed personnel working as a doctor at the Police Regional Office (PRO)-Davao. “Amier and his cousins were just sleeping at their aunt's house in Davao City when his cousin called and requested to be fetched at the Lugar Cafe and Bar in the corner of Tavera and V. Mapa streets. Being a good and loving cousin that he was, he immediately complied … not knowing what fate awaited him there,” the post said.
“Contrary to reports that these young people were all drunk or high, they were just at home sleeping. “They were not drinking, and definitely were not high on drugs. On the contrary; Dr. Marvin Pepino, a son of a PNP General, brought a gun and was drinking in a public place.” The student arrived in the middle of a scuffle outside the bar. "Dr. Pepino went to a bar to drink and brought his
gun with him. So even if Amier was not there that night; someone might have still been killed—it could be someone else’s cousin, son, or worst seven people might have been shot by the seven bullets fired. We all know that guns and liquor are a deadly combination," it added. The victim’s family posted several questions: 1. Are PNP Personnel allowed to drink inside bars? If we're not mistaken, follow-

CHO wins recognition for its COVID vaccine efforts MAYOR Sebastian Duterte cited the good performance of the City Health Office (CHO), which helped the local government win the “Most Innovative City for COVID-19 Vaccination Rollout” and the “Highest Eligible Population - Fully Vaccinated for COVID-19 Vaccination Rollout”. He said that the awards were not surprising given the success of the CHO’s antiCOVID vaccination rollout. “I commend the City Health Office kay ever since man pud gyud ingon ana ang ilang performance.

From Captivity to productivity BY ALAND MIZELL
THIS WEEK, Reny Ornado Aguilar earned his Bachelor of Science in Computer Technology at the University of Southeastern Philippines and is currently working at the Cariaga Law Office. Because Reny’s parents separated when he was a child, he never saw his father. From the time of that separation, everything became completely unsettled and dysfunctional for him. The only reactions he could muster were confusion, anger, and fear, so he took those emotions and tried to use them as a form of power, resulting in the perfect formula for getting in trouble, going down the wrong path, and landing him in the Davao City Jail where he was sentenced for and to misspending his time and squandering his life. It did not take much time Behind Bars in Davao City ductive members of society, in jail for Reny to realize that which gave him a chance to a transformation that seems his actions were hurting not obtain a quality education. impossible until it is done. only himself but also other When Reny graduated from For Reny his failure was not people he loved the most, his college at age forty-two, he fatal, nor was his success final, children.

If given ment.

While incarcerated at the Davao City Jail, Reny took rehabilitation classes, and through these classes, he realized that he is bigger than his problems and that he could understand and overcome his habits and hang-ups. When Reny was arrested, his children stopped going to school, and some of them started to work just to support themselves and to survive. When people are incarcerated, they are not the only ones being affected, because they hurt their families and loved ones as well. Although his children dropped out of school, Reny now is helping and encouraging them to finish school, so that his son Laurence has returned to school, and Reny has become a proud father as well as an inspiration both for his children and for all of us. Reny’s receiving his diploma made his children very proud, especially his eldest daughter who was crying with joy and pride for her father, and now she plans to follow in his footsteps by attending college. Another challenge was that on the day that he was released, he did not know where to go, and his mind was still toggling back and forth on what he should do. The need for family restitution and for a job loomed large. Unemployment, according to studies on
the high rate of recidivism, proves to be the primary cause of re-incarceration. When released, Reny needed to find a job, so he could eat, support his four children, hold his head up, and know he could handle freedom. In reality, jobs are hard to find when an individual is an ex-convict. When Reny was released from jail, he had difficulty securing a job, but Attorney Susan Cariaga offered him a full-time position at the Cariaga Law Firm. According to Attorney Susan, Reny is one of the hardest working employees she has ever had. Also, she holds that Reny paid his debt to society by spending several years in jail, and now it is time for society to support and mentor Reny to be a productive member of our community. With a college degree and useful life skills, released PDL can overcome the prison stigma. Aguilar testifies, “It was through College Education Behind Bars that I am not only learned a wealth of knowledge about human behavior, but also a wealth of insight into my own behavior and, most importantly, to know my creator, sustainer, and provider and to get to know Him as well. It was a journey of self-discovery.” By God’s grace, he was able to survive seemingly insurmountable obstacles while incarcerated by becoming one of the beneficiaries of College
Education Behind Bars, the school inside the jail. College Education Behind Bars helped him to rebuild his life from the inside out. Undoubtedly, College Education Behind Bars constitutes a powerful investment in the lives of individuals on whom society has set its lowest expectation. Since many PDL did not have access to an acceptable education or role models in their lives, college education gives them a second chance. The road is neither easy nor short, but change is possible. “There is no hope inside the jail. The only good thing that happened for us was the establishment of the College Education Behind Bars. I am glad I was able to study. I have been blessed to come across individuals in my life, that were not afraid to open their hearts, minds, times, determination, leadership, prayers, vision, and resources and who took the time to know me and overlooked the crime I had committed. These amazing individuals and institutions made the program what it is today,” Aguilar admitted. Today, we are all witnesses to a historic milestone in the CEBB program. Reny O. Aguilar finished his course in Computer Technology against all odds. At the age of thirty-four, Reny went to jail as a problem and became a captive, but eight years later
he came out as a productive man, and he has been transformed. Equipped with a college degree through College Education Behind Bars, he is now gainfully employed and a resident of Davao City. Jail is a tough place. It is neither designed for reform nor for rehabilitation. The only tool available is survival. To have higher education inside the jail is not an easy task; there are obstacles in every direction, but obstacles do not mean defeat. Jail can be a defining moment in a man’s life, but not the definition of the man. Reny and others have overcome those obstacles, moving from captivity to productivity. Congratulation to Reny for a job well done! The honor is shared by Dr. Aland Mizell, founder of Social Entrepreneurship, Technology, and Business Institute/ Minority Care International (SETBI/MCI) and College Education Behind Bars; Cofounder of CEBB, Attorney Susan Cariaga; President of the University of Southeastern Philippines, Dr. Lourdes C. Generalo; the Don Antonio O. Floirendo, Sr., Foundation; and the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP). Dr. Aland Mizell is with the MCI, SETBI and is a regular Mindanao Times columnist.

DAVAO CITY – Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) testing to establish blood relations is the top of service being availed by civilian clients in the Police Regional Office - Davao Region DNA Laboratory Section of the Regional Forensic Unit (RFU-11) here, an official said Monday. In a press briefing, Maj. Florepes Pallado, RFU-11 DNA laboratory section chief, said they have catered to some 400 clients all over Mindanao who availed of DNA testing since they opened in February 2019. "Primarily, they need the service as proof for inheritance rights. There are over 400 clients across Mindanao who availed of paternity and maternity tests," she said. For civilians who seek to avail of the services, Pallado said they only have to submit a letter
of request to the section. The DNA processing costs PHP20,000 per sample with results available after two to three days. "We do not release results unless it is with 99.99 percent accuracy," Pallado said. The laboratory is complete with a sampling and extraction area, amplification room, and a genetic analyzer. Prior to its establishment, all services related to DNA examination were forwarded to Camp Crame, the Philippine National Police's headquarters in Quezon City. Aside from DNA testing, the RFU lab also offers bullet comparison microscopes for firearms identification, ballistic examination, and automated scan for fingerprint identification systems. (PNA)

All in or back again YOU have got to admit, our just-concluded “shared experience” of being under the Duterte administration for the last six years will be a fave debate topic for years to come. While on one hand, a hail of praises may have been heaped on its style and achievements, the opposing flak from the direction of the president’s detractors could also merit what online enthusiasts naturally classify nowadays as popcorn reading. In fact, all that one has to do is put up any single positive accomplishment by the said administration for discussion online and then observe as comments slowly begin to pile up like against it. (Just a precaution though: you might have to sift through troll garbage on this one.) Since day one, criticism stemming from both local and international media had never been few and far between. On the contrary, orchestrated efforts to turn public opinion against him had always been the obvious motive for the deluge, up to a point where at one time, the UN and even the international court have been dragged into these intentions. In the end, these efforts may have only been successful in one aspect: they have brought to the surface the hidden seams which have for so long divided our social classes, polarizing it further and ensuring that, that divide lasts for a long time. As though to make light of it all, mixed with our Pambansang propensity for name labels and such, we have vocalized this class divide into catcall types, hurling them like stones. Thus, throughout these six years, we have called each other as trolls, Dutertards, disente, dilawans and pinklawans etcetera. In spite all these negativities, no one can deny that the country is in a far better place than before. In the same breath, who one can deny that, despite all the non-stop criticisms and junk thrown at it, the past administration Correspondents:

had doggedly forged through all the silt and gone ahead with its programs and being true to its Change is Coming promise. The humblest remark yet may have come from the president himself with his brief remark when queried on what the government has accomplished at the end of their term: “Look around.” Be that as it may, this whole parade is over and it’s time to move on. For or against, we may have actually shared one common thing out of all these. For but a brief moment in time, a semblance of tangible unity or whatever word one has for it, may have looked us straight in the eye but then, like a sprite, it lingered for an instant and then was gone like a mist. I remember back in the mid-nineties in Zamboanga’s Subanen land, we were resting in the middle of a secondary forest after a 5-kilometer walk, when a deer stopped dead a few meters from where I was resting. Stirring from my nap, I clearly saw its dark brown body unmindful of my prone figure by the bush, until I moved my hand slowly to get the camera. It made a quick turn and with alarm in its eyes, and disappeared back from where it came. That might as well be the six years going by so fast.

Baste’s ‘baptism of fire’ NEWLY seated Davao City Mayor Sebastian “Baste” Duterte is given his baptism of fire on the very day he started his term. We say “baptism of fire” because what happened early dawn of last Friday in a local bar will certainly test the mettle of the new mayor in deciding how he will mitigate the impact of last Friday’s incident in his thrust to sustain the peace and order situation obtaining in the city during his father’s and sister’s terms as mayors. Last Friday (or was it Saturday?) early dawn a medical doctor who is a non-uniformed personnel of the Police Regional Office (PRO) XI shot and killed another customer of the bar the doctor was in. We are certain that the young mayor is familiar with the family of the suspect doctor. Some personalities bearing the doctor-suspect’s family name had been involved in some controversial incidents in the past that for some time they dominated the front page of local newspapers. Whether he is related to them or not we have no idea so far. We do not know as well what triggered the incident in the local bar but it must be something of a deep hatred or hurtful because it caused a medical practitioner to impulsively draw a gun and shot the victim who is reported to be years younger than the suspect. The question though is how come a civilian was able to enter the establishment carrying a gun with him? It could only mean that the suspect could be packing with some degree of influence to the bar owners or managers. It could also be possible that the managers of the bar are not seriously implementing the ban on carrying firearms by anyone whether he is a civilian or law enforcer (when the latter is not on duty). Moreover, the shooting happened when the supposed curfew hours were still in effect in the city. And as expected the PRO XI was in a defensive mode when its spokesperson claimed that non-uniformed personnel of the police are not issued firearms. The spokesperson added that the doctor could be carrying with him his licensed personal gun since any civilian who is qualified to apply for a license will be issued one. The lady police mouthpiece though failed to explain why the suspect somewhat freely carried his gun when a ban is still in effect. Of course there is the possibility that the suspect doctor could have acquired a permit to carry a firearm. As to why he got the permit we could only assume that it could only be his personal or his family’s influence that gave him the privilege. Unless of course the Police Regional Office will agree that the guy’s life is constantly in danger because of the existence of enemies. Now as to why the crime is detrimental to Baste as mayor and it looks like his “baptism of fire”, it is because the incident happened on the very start of his term and somewhat a major challenge to his resolve to sustain the gains of the city in its peace and order initiatives. It is how the new mayor will make the police or other probe bodies conduct a fair and honest investigation into the circumstances of the case and how they will treat the suspect, he being an influential component of the PNP civilian support group. We can only hope that the PRO XI will be true to its words that “it will not interfere in the investigation.” The PNP Regional Office, we assumed, is allowing other law enforcing unit to do the investigation based on the spokesperson’s statement. That is one good idea. However, it is not a guaranty that interference cannot be done by them or anyone of its “agents.” And this is where Mayor Baste must be wary about. ************************** We hit it right. We mean our earlier guess that newlyassumed Vice President Sara Duterte-Carpio will bring along with her to Manila lawyer Zulyka Lopez, her City Administrator during the times she was mayor of Davao City. But we are not quite familiar with the one who is tapped by Mayor Baste to replace Lopez’s position although his family name is quite familiar to us. Yes, he is (

Progress with a face POVERTY and inequality are recurrent in the Philippines. According to PSA, in 2018, the highest poverty incidence was registered among farmers with 31.6% and the fisherfolks at 26.2%. The ADB in a 2009 Report, revealed their location. They are living in rural areas. If poverty is described this way, no wonder Mindanao will always be viewed as poor. Mark Twain said, "it's not what we don't know that gets us into trouble; it's what we know for sure that just ain't so." The assumptions of nature and character of Mindanao poverty and also its progress needs to be understood, as these would have consequences on growth, a self-fulfilling effect. Let me share Price's Law which described the dismal disparity in the number of people enjoying the benefits of productivity concerning productive potential and the size of resources dedicated for production. As confirmed in publications and literature, Price's Law can also explain the terrain of growth --- only a fraction of the population obtains the benefits of productive uses. Mindanao experiences low to moderate economic growth owing to weaknesses in employment brought about by the underdeveloped and undervalued agriculture and a weak link with manufacturing industries. I remember attending a conference where a friend shared insights on the value chain of papaya. He shared that a papaya's farmgate price is P15, but when sold in the market with a plastic covering and a brand name, it's P100. I asked why the farmers would allow it. He said they
EGALITARIAN
BY ADRIAN M. TAMAYO don't' allow; it's forced unto them. Mindanao continues to wade towards progress. At the core of its pursuit are the people, the farmers, the fishermen, and the workers who are singlehandedly denied their rightful share, value, and benefits of growth. Therefore, poverty is brought about by geographic and psychological isolation. The inadequacy of infrastructures that could have afforded effective and seamless transportation, logistics, and post-harvest facilities is proof of attention that has been a long time coming. The national attention need be guided to find solutions that reflect the realities on the ground.
That poverty is essentially a rural problem such that development needs to focus on the countryside. Connecting rural areas to the urban centers for food, energy, raw materials, human interaction and information will bring economies of scale in agriculture, modernization of industries, and innovation in the services sector. As we use to say, rising tide lifts all boats. With Secretary Maria Belen Acosta at the helm of Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA), the agency pursues Mindanao Development Corridor (MinDC). MinDC is a spatial development strategy that connects the undeveloped areas with the developed centers to take advantage of the natural endowments and usher in domestic growth. The aim is to harness governance and culture, sustain environmental integrity, widen economic opportunities, improve interconnectivity and farm productivity, hasten economic recovery, revive tourism, and achieve a reliable and affordable Mindanao power. The intended progress is rudimentary and deeply interwoven in the social fabric of the Mindanawons. It is also logically consistent with the bottom line of business and investments. After all, progress is not only about numbers. Progress has a human face. (Adrian Tamayo is the head of the Public Relations of the Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA). He also teaches economics at the Graduate School of the University of Mindanao and is currently on a scholarship grant for a Master of Public Safety Administration (MPSA) at the Philippine Public Safety College).
Daghang Salamat Bernie. Magpadayon mi DAVAO CITY (MindaNews ) -- He was buried today in gloomy weather. Saturday’s heavy downpour and overcast skies could easily have been interpreted as manifestations of heaven’s grief. But the man who was buried this morning would have been more concerned about children and their families in bad weather. He would have worried about mga bata and kabataan and their pamilya needing shelter; those under threat from flooding; and those who would be denied their day’s sustenance because the rains prevented them from working. His work was an assertion that children have rights and that children’s rights are human rights. As such, children cannot be denied these rights; and society cannot be arbitrary about what rights to prioritize, more so because these rights make up a coherent whole. He reminded us that children and youth getting into conflict with the law are less about poor discipline and more about society’s failings. The situation of our children and youth are but products of what we have allowed our society to become over time: pronounced socio-economic inequities; government leaders who manipulate rather than serve people’s will; political divisions fueled by untruths; and intolerance that prevents authentic growth and connections. Instead of benefiting from the best of our hopes, many

So far the City Administrator’s Office is the only one Department at city hall with its head moved by VP Sara to help her run the Office of the Vice President (OVP). If there will be other departments we have yet to know. And by the way we congratulate former City Tourism Operations Officer Gene Rose Tecson. Though she will remain based in Davao City she now has to give up her post to assume a new responsibility given her by VP Sara. She now heads the Davao City-based satellite office of the OVP which is established to make sure that whatever services the said office is to deliver will be done nearest to those who need these. ************************* We are extending our condolences to the family of the late lawyer Noe Laguindam who passed away recently. Atty. Noe was a close friend and former co-employee of ours at the Commission on Population. May he rest in eternal peace.
TRIBUTE BY MAGS Z. MAGLANA
Filipino children and youth today suffer from the worst of our fears. Our fear of threats and disorder have made us susceptible to the lure of punitive blanket solutions. And so, instead of being rehabilitated and reformed, many of our young who engaged in criminal acts had been incarcerated or worse, summarily killed. To our shame, the foundations of our current sense of security include acts of violence against children and violations of their rights. We fear instability and mistake aspirations for change as malicious destabilization. Hence, we are quick to label youth expressions of their rights to association, free speech, and assembly as terroristic. Never mind that in doing so, we put their lives and liberty at risk. Never mind that in doing so, we abet the stunting of our people’s political maturity and the weakening of institutions. We value continuity and fear disruption and thus think that the transfer of political positions from older to younger members of a family is a matter of course.
But we discount the real nature and true costs and effects of political dynasties. With continuing poverty a reality in many areas where dynasties have reigned for generations, it can almost be said that dynasties are about securing the future of clan interests represented by a few children, to the detriment of the wellbeing of other and more children. But Bernie Mondragon, whose person, work, and passing inspire these musings, would have wanted us to overcome the worst of our fears so we could provide the best of our hopes to our children and youth. He was laid to rest today in gloomy weather. But his vision, passion, and energy will help sustain the work to respect, promote, protect, and fulfill children’s rights and all human rights. Daghang salamat, Bernie. Magpadayon mi. (MindaViews is the opinion section of MindaNews. Mags Z.

Public markets and stockyards are also under strict surveillance. The city’s

slaughterhouses, cold storage and processing plants are closely monitored. Stockyards in Bangkerohan are currently closed and will be under tight monitoring after one stockyard specimen from the area tested positive for ASF. Sepulveda said this prompted the office to cull all hogs in the establishment and to temporarily close all stockyards in the city. She added, “Kailangan po naming mag-continuous monitoring sa palengke, sa mga stockyards, although ang Bangkerohan ngayon walang laman ang kanilang mga stockyards
kasi gi-close namin sila (We need to conduct continuous monitoring in public markets and stockyards although the stockyards in Bangkerohan Public Market are currently empty because we had to shut them down).” On top of this, the City Veterinarian’s Office has also tightened border inspection of hogs coming into the city. Sepulveda said that farmers with commercial hogs coming from areas that have declared ASF outbreaks (red zones) and from areas that have not been flagged (green zones) must acquire an animal
inspection certificate and an ASF-free certificate from the Veterinary Quarantine Services Department of the Department of Agriculture. However, non-commercial hogs or backyard hogs from outside of the city are not allowed entry. “If backyard hogs coming from Davao City, okay lang po yan; dito lang po sila iikot sa Davao City pero with corresponding animal inspection certificate.

We are known to have no enemies).” However, he vowed to fulfill his campaign promises for his constituents since committee membership is only a portion of a councilor’s role. Meanwhile, Vice Mayor Jay Melchor Quitain Jr. dismissed insinuations that Abellera was deliberately targeted. “Of course, kinsa choices sa konsehal mao na ila nominate, it’s up for the body to decide,” he said. “Everybody was unanimous, nobody commented, nobody reacted.” “Everything here is democratic,” he added. He also echoed Abellera’s
sentiments that a councilor’s scope of work is not limited to committee membership. He explained: “When we decide sa floor, dili man committee mag-vote. Everybody votes even those with no committee or no membership, we still have that right to vote. He can still comment, he can still object, and he can still say something about the committee reports that will be coming out of the council. So, he still has a say on everything.” Meanwhile, Quitain said that the 20th City Council regular sessions will be conducted face-to-face but they will not totally eradicate the Zoom platform. “It proved very advantageous, especially for guests or resource speakers who cannot travel here to Davao City because of restrictions,” he said.
Earlier, Abellera was dropped out of the majority Hungpong sa Tawong Lungsod and Hungpong ng Pagbabago Party, which was founded by then vice mayor Sara Duterte to help launch her vice-presidential run. The party claimed that Along with Abellera, former councilor Pamela Librado-Morata was also delisted from the roster of official candidates. The decision promoted Morata to drop her plans to gun for reelection. “The party believes that their ideals are not in line with the political party’s vision for Davao City and the Philippines. We wish them well in their future endeavors,” said the statement released by former vice mayor and now Mayor Sebastian Duterte in September 2021.

The same applies for commercial farmers with hogs coming in from green or red zones outside of the city, they will have an ASF-free certificate good for seven days),” Sepulveda said.

She said that a supportive chief executive and opening of the sectoral vaccination, door-to-door vaccination, and other means to spread the opportunities most easily and possibly to the communities helped the city get the “ Most Innovative City”. She also cited the partnership with the private sector in the sectoral vaccination and the cooperation of the malls also helped the city achieve its goals. She added that apart from the above mentioned factors, the public’s participation and cooperation in the
vaccination rollout are worth mentioning. “Dili lang ni sya effort sa city health, dili lang ni siya effort sa pang-gobyerno kundi effort ni sa tanan (This is not only the efforts of the City Health, the government but by everyone) including the vaccinees who accepted the call for vaccination since they know what is good for them and what is good for the community. We wish to thank everyone for the support given to the city government, the City Health Office, and the community, as well,” Villafuerte said. By Rhoda Grace B. Saron

FAMILY ... (from page 2) ing former president Rodrigo Duterte’s directive in January 2019, then DILG Secretary Eduardo Año has ordered the Philippine National Police through an Administrative Circular to ensure that cops conduct themselves professionally in public, banning them from drinking in bars, nightclubs, and in other public places. 2. Are gun owners allowed to just bring their guns anywhere and everywhere, especially in bars, nightclubs, and other public drinking places? Or our Bars slowly becoming like the schools of America? 3. Are guns allowed inside Lugar Café and Bar? What's the use of their security checks? “Amierkhan was kind, obedient, and a loving son. He didn't have any vice; he disliked to drink liquor and hated the
smell of cigarette smoke. That was why he was just at home sleeping on that unfateful day, had his cousin not asked to be fetched from the said bar. “Amierkhan was second in a brood of six. He had many beautiful dreams for himself and his family. “He loved to tinker and repair cars and dreamt that one day he would be able to build his own car detailing and repair shop. But that dream will remain a dream... forever,” the statement added. The suspect is currently detained in the San Pedro Police station for the filing of an appropriate case. In a recent press conference, city police director Col. Alberto Lupaz revealed that they have prepared a murder charge against Pepino. However, as of this writing, there has been no inquest procedure
since the suspect requested a preliminary investigation into the case. A preliminary investigation is necessary to determine probable cause. Lupaz added that Pepino will also be facing a charge under Sect. 31 of RA10591 ( Illegal Possession of firearms) since he has no permit to carry firearms outside of residence (PTCFOR). Aside from criminal liability, the Regional Investigation and Detection Management Division (RIDM) is also conducting a parallel investigation against the suspect for administrative liabilities. He said the division will eventually release the results of its investigation in two weeks and his liability is tantamount to discharge from service. By Rhoda Grace B. Saron
in capital stock in 2021, proof that businesses continued to grow and generate more jobs for Filipinos. Corporations also continued to turn to the capital markets for their financing needs, as the amount of capital raised in 2021 more than doubled to P234.48 billion, compared to P103.76 billion in the year before. Investments in mutual funds likewise steadily increased, reaching P444.08 billion in 2021 from P294.7 billion in 2017. Meanwhile, the number of companies registering as corporations with the SEC remained consistent amid the pandemic, with an average of around 34,000 per year from 2016 to 2021. Central to the Commission’s undisrupted operations during the pandemic is the successful implementation of its digital transformation initiatives, which allowed corporations to transact with the SEC from the comfort of their own homes or offices. The SEC’s digital transformation includes the launch of the Electronic Simplified Processing of Application for Registration of Companies (eSPARC) and its subsystem, the One Day Submission and Electronic Registration of Companies; the Electronic Filing and Submission Tool (eFAST); and the Electronic System for Payments to the
SEC (eSPAYSEC). The Commission also intensified its efforts to stomp out fraudsters and perpetrators of investment scams by regularly issuing advisories and cease-and-desist orders against unauthorized investments. A total of 115 and 126 advisories were issued in 2021 and 2020, respectively, compared to just 50 in 2019. Prior to the pandemic, the Commission was able to institute key reforms that allowed the further development of the corporate sector under the Duterte administration. Among these is the signing into law of Republic Act No. 11232, or the Revised Corporation Code, on February 20, 2019. The law aims to improve the ease of doing business in the country, provide enhanced protection to corporations and stockholders, and promote corporate governance. Another significant milestone is the issuance of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations of Republic Act No. 9856, or the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) Act of 2009. The new regulations fixed taxation issues, among others, that previously discouraged corporations to issue REITs, allowing interested entities to finally introduce the new financial product to the market. “I am confident that the SEC will continue strengthening its corporate governance, adopting the best practices, and riding the wave of policy reforms. These will ensure the provision of the most effective regulatory environment,” Mr. Dominguez said.

Aquino said. “As such, the Commission renews its commitment to championing the development of the capital market to support the recovery and growth of corporations, as well as regulatory reforms aimed at improving the ease of doing business in the country, and the economy’s global competitiveness.” Under the recently concluded Duterte administration, the SEC achieved significant milestones that helped the corporate sector survive and bounce back from the impacts of the pandemic. In a message to the SEC before the end of his term, former Finance Secretary Carlos G. Dominguez III noted how the Commission “confronted the challenges of this time with flying colors.” Mr. Dominguez added: “I commend the men and women of the SEC, led by Chairman Emilio B. Aquino, for the courage, commitment, and innovativeness you demonstrated through the length of the public health emergency. You sustained your regulatory role and inspired confidence in our market. The Commission plays an important role in our nation’s strong recovery.” Despite the pandemic, the SEC approved a record high of P687.40 billion in an increase

CABINET ... (from page 3) "The central policy actually that everybody else will eventually be following will be that set out by our economic managers," he said. Vice President and Education Secretary Sara DuterteCarpio, Executive Secretary Victor "Vic" Rodriguez, and Press Secretary Beatrix Rose "Trixie" Cruz-Angeles were among the Cabinet members who attended the meeting with Marcos at Malacañan. Agriculture, finance, transportation and education sectors were among the key items discussed in the first Cabinet meeting, the RTVM said. Malacañang has yet to release additional details about Marcos' first meeting with his Cabinet. In a separate Facebook post, Social Welfare Secretary Erwin Tulfo said attendees are mandated to undergo antigen testing. Marcos' Cabinet remains incomplete, as he has yet to appoint secretaries in some departments, including the Department of Health. Marcos is already in the "final stage" of evaluating the candidates for vacant posts in his Cabinet, Cruz-Angeles said in a Palace press briefing on Monday. Proposed retrenchment opposed Marcos also rejected the proposed retrenchment of some government personnel to collect more funds to sustain the efforts to hasten the country’s economic recovery from the prevailing coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic, Tulfo said in another Facebook post.
ABOVE ... (from page 3) it added. The FMIC and UA&P forecast the peso to further weaken against the US dollar because of the generally stronger US dollar, higher US interest rates, and increasing trade deficits, with the latter seen to surpass the USD50billion level this year. The local currency again closed at the 55-level against the US dollar on Monday, after starting the year at the
51-level. The report said rising interest rates in the US, which the Federal funds rate hiked by a total of 150 basis points since last March, along with the rising trade deficit of the Philippines, are expected to hurt the local currency. “Safe haven demand boosted the US dollar as investors worry about the global economic slowdown on the horizon,” it added. (PNA)
“We don’t want anyone out of job at this point,” Marcos, as quoted by Tulfo, said. In a text message, Solicitor General Menardo Guevarra said controlling inflation, ensuring food security, supporting the transportation sector, and resuming the face-to-face classes were among the issues raised during the four-hour
Cabinet meeting. The first Cabinet meeting, Guevarra said, is “very productive” as Marcos handled it “extremely well.” “He (Marcos) is knowledgeable, organized, and very sharp,” he said. “Other areas of concern will be discussed in subsequent meetings of the Cabinet.” (PNA)

A total of 27 universities and colleges, out of 89 HEI applicants from around the country, were granted access to funding by the Department of Science and Technology Philippine Council for Industry, Energy, and Emerging Technology Research and Development (DOST-PCIEERD). PWC of Davao is the only privately owned college in Mindanao to have participated, with its PWC CHI+ (Creative Hub for Industry 4.0), a technology business incubator for the mainstreaming of indigenous culture, heritage, and identity, focused on fashion and food as a lifestyle; it is unique in its focus on the creative industries. De La Salle College of St. Benilde and the Ateneo de Manila University, both from the NCR, were ranked first and second, respectively. Present during the kick-off were Prof. Vicente Antonio V.
