Tupas said his administration followed to the letter the electric power purchase agreement they entered with Green Core Geothermal, Inc. Tupas made the reaction after the Office of the Ombudsman indicted him and three other capitol officials for graft for allegedly overpaying some P4 million to Green Core for unconsumed electricity. The power purchase deal was meant to energize the proposed Iloilo MultiPurpose Convention Center (IMPCC) which did not materialize.

Mateo Jr. ILOILO City police director Senior Supt. Ruperto Floro said they are finished with the illegal drug-clearing activities in 7 barangays of La Paz district. Floro said they are now eyeing to clear another group of barangays in January 2015. “We are through with the 7 barangays of La Paz. In fact, we will already hold a culminating program by next week at La Paz Plaza to mark our successful operation. PNP regional director Josephus Angan will be our special guest,” he said. The 7 barangays are Aguinaldo (the barangay of Liga ng mga Barangay president Carlos Guarin), Rizal, Railway, McArthur, Divinagracia, Alalasan, and Punong. Asked for their next target barangays next year, Floro said in jest: “Secret!” “It could be any group of barangays known to be drug-affected. We will reveal them later,” he said though. Under the drug-clearing campaign, city cops are assigned to monitor the movements of every suspected drug personality in the target barangays. The move aims to scare drug personalities away from the barangay and prevent drug peddling activities.

THE CORPORATE SECRETARY 4 News Friday, December 19, 2014 Guardian the daily Western Visayas Most Read and Respected SWS: 7 out of 10 Pinoys expect a happy Christmas MANILA – Just over seven out of 10 Filipinos—71 percent—expect a happy Christmas this year, a marked improvement from previous years, according to a new survey from Social Weather Stations. In contrast, sadness this Christmas is at its lowest since 2003 at six percent. Meanwhile, 23 percent expect the Yuletide to be neither happy nor sad. The SWS survey also showed three out of four or 75 percent said it is better to give this coming Christmas as against 23 percent who said it is better to receive. SWS conducted its fourth quarter social weather survey from Nov. 27 to Dec. 1 using face-to-face interviews of 1,800 adults nationwide. IMPROVEMENT of Filipinos who expected a happy Christmas remained at the sixties: 64 percent in 2004, 62 percent in both 2005 and 2006, 64 percent in 2007, 63 percent in 2008, and 64 percent in 2009,” SWS said. It said the figure recovered to 69 percent in 2010, but fell to 64 percent in 2011 and 2012, and 62 percent in 2013. SWS said the 71 percent who expect a happy Christmas was an improvement from the 62 to 64 percent since 2004. “The expectation of a happy Christmas was a high 82 percent when the series started in 2002, but declined to 77 percent the following year. From 2004 to 2013, the percentages SWS said the six percent expecting a sad Christmas in 2014 represents the lowest since 2003, when it hit four percent. “In 2002 and 2003, only three to four percent reported having a sad Christmas, and then increased to 10 percent in 2004. From 2005 to 2010, This included 300 each in Metro Manila, Balance Luzon, and Mindanao, and 900 in Visayas. Sampling error margins of ±2.3% for national percentages, ±5.7% each for Metro Manila, Balance Luzon and Mindanao, and ±3.3% for Visayas, applied to the survey. Lowest sadness level sadness with Christmas fluctuated at 7-10 percent level,” it said. Christmas sadness peaked at 11 percent in 2011, but fell to 9 percent in 2012 and 2013. Better to give than receive The last time that the percentage of people who said it is better to give than to receive hit 75 percent was in 2006, almost a decade ago. The SWS said the proportions of those who say it is better to give than to receive this Christmas are high across all areas and socio-demographic groups.

Pals/p11 Boy, 12, nabbed for robbery By Jennifer Ponsaran-Rendon A 12-YEAR old boy was arrested for allegedly stealing from a neighbor’s sarisari store in Jaro, Iloilo City Thursday. Jim (not his real name) said he planned to rob the store Zone 6, Barangay Sambag to pay for his computer game rental. The store owner and his son caught Jim inside the store around 2:20 a.m. Thursday. The boy initially claimed that he was from Nueva Ecija province. He even concocted a story that a group of men onboard a van told him to rob the store. But the driver of the van whom Jim tagged denied knowing the child. Jim later revealed that his family used to reside in Nueva Ecija province but later relocated to Jaro. Since the police did not recover any money or goods from his possession, Jim was charged for trespass to dwelling. He was also kept out of jail because of his age. Meanwhile, the Iloilo City Police Office (ICPO) advised residents to ensure their personal safety and make sure that the doors and windows of their homes are securely locked when they go out shopping. The reminder is one of top advisory of the ICPO in leaflets which police officer distributed to mall and church goers. “They should be always on alert,” said Senior Supt. Ruperto Floro, ICPO director. He added that air conditioning unit shaft should be fully secured as some child burglars use the hole to enter into houses. 6 Opinion Friday, December 19, 2014 Guardian the daily Western Visayas Most Read and Respected Trash and more B ACOLOD CITY is awash not just with cash but also with trash. Yesterday I said that something smells but it is not just the reported hefty “bonus” that some members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod reportedly got for the rapid approval of the Real Estate Tax hikes. Three million pesos of intelligence and therefore unaccountable funds can really make the SP move even doing away with legal requireModesto Palacios Sa-onoy ments for such an ordinance. In that sense the councilors got the cash and lot owners and developers got the trash. This is the same SP that approved a patently disadvantageous contract for the collection and disposal of the city’s garbage. Under the contract with Environking, the garbage collector is given P9 million a month regardless of the volume of garbage collected. So whether it collected ten tons or one ton a month, it is still paid P9 million. At the beginning it was doing fine but since some months back, we were already experiencing the rise in uncollected garbage. We thought it tolerable since the contractor was still adjusting to the situation although this is ridiculous because Environking should have studied the garbage situation before it offered to bid. Anyway the people of Bacolod were forbearing; it seems nobody was complaining anyway. But garbage is one object and subject that cannot be hid or covered. It smells. Nevertheless the Environking or the city government did not bother even to cover them so we see them all over. In fact, I suspect that Environking is not bothered at all. Its contract is to expire and it seems it is not interested in bidding again. After all whether it collected or not, it gets paid for P9 million. Or perhaps, is it really getting the full amount of P9 million? Or does Environking share its fees with somebody who makes things happen in the Government Center? A highly reliable source in Manila says that the contractor is already disgusted because it has to foot this and that bill on demand from powerful personalities in Bacolod. In a way, Environking is just compensating by cutting cost through scaling down its collection work. And so we see the results of this anomalous, stinking and disadvantageous contract. Last week I went to the City Library to research on the Minutes of the session of the Bacolod Municipal Council of 1906-1909. Since the tricycles are parked right in front of the library’s gate, I had to park farther west near the Hernaez entrance of Rizal Elementary School. It was nauseating and I am certain every kid and teacher that passed through the gate had seen the pile of uncollected garbage, the swarm of flies and cockroaches but fortunately not the disease carrying rats. At the school’s Yulo Street entrance is another mountain of garbage. Near the Fire Department, in Mambulok, at the Reclamation Area, Burgos Market, at the Capitol Shopping Center, in Libertad near UNO-R, at San Juan Street near the LCC Architecture Building, at the corner of Rizal and San Juan, at Gatuslao near the Andres Bonifacio Elementary School, in Aguinaldo Street behind ABS-CBN, at North Drive in the Santo Niño Stop – these are only few that I know to be reeking with garbage. I wonder whether the same situation is true in our barangays! If this situation is true in the inner city how much more outside the gaze of visitors and commuters? Do our city officials also go around even just in their cars to see what penalty they inflicted on the people for passing this contract? If they do, they cannot escape the sight of the garbage because trash is all over the city. They are directly responsible for this state of affairs for approving a contract that is loaded in favor of the contractor or whoever is getting a portion of the fees directly or indirectly. Sure the councilors are legislators and the burden of monitoring and supervising the performance of Environking rests with the Executive. But the disadvantageous contract practically absolves the executive for not doing anything. After all, the contract does not impose penalties on Environking for poor performance or for not collecting all the trash in this city. If they have been going around, they would have seen these piles of garbage and demanded performance. Has any member of the SP at least initiated a move to find out what’s happening? Indeed we are awash with trash here and there and everywhere and we are paying over P90 million for them. Focus Vidality Alex P. Vidal Graciano Lopez Jaena inspires Ilonggo journalists formed a triumvirate with Dr. Jose Rizal and Marcel H. del Pilar. But he became well known for his newspaper, La Solidaridad. No wonder contemporary journalists in Iloilo today flood the Western Visayas community with newspapers. Almost every freedom-loving and lovers of letters and literature want to become newspapermen or to own and manage their own newspaper in the Ilonggo-speaking populace. It runs in the Ilonggo blood. Before he became famous, Lopez Jaena was first sent by his parents to study at St. Vincent Ferrer Seminary in Jaro which had been opened under the administration of Governor General Carlos María de la Torre y Nava Cerrada. In the seminary, he served as a secretary to Claudio Lopez, his uncle who was the honorary vice consul of Portugal in Iloilo. But he had ambitioned to become a physician. Lopez Jaena convinced his parents that he needed to enrol in a university in Manila. “When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.” – Tecumseh T HE REASON why Ilonggos are so proud and probably the most-inspired journalists in the country in this generation is Graciano Lopez Jaena. Could the son of Jaro, Iloilo City, who died in poverty, have been swallowed by the prevailing system that decimates the moral fiber of many enterprising journalists had he lived in today’s generation? Born on December 18, 1856 and died on January 20, 1896, Lopez Jaena was not only an outstanding journalist, but was also an orator at par with the country’s and even the Asia’s best. As the first ilustrado to arrive in Spain where he started the Propaganda Movement against our Spanish colonizers, Lopez Jaena became revolutionary when he ADMISSION He was denied admission at the University of Santo Tomas because he did not have a Bachelor of Arts degree when he was at the seminary in Jaro. Lopez Jaena was appointed to the San Juan de Dios Hospital as an apprentice. He eventually dropped out due to financial difficulties and returned to Iloilo. His assimilation with the poor ignited his feelings about the injustices common in that era. Lopez Jaena’s potentials as a reformer and writer became apparent at the age of 18 when he wrote the satirical story “Fray Botod” which depicted a fat and lecherous priest. Lopez Jaena ribbed Fray Botod’s false piety which “always had the Virgin and God on his lips no matter how unjust and underhanded his acts are.” The story was not published, but a copy circulated widely in Iloilo. The infuriated friars could not prove that Lopez Jaena was the author, thus he went off the hook, so to speak, temporarily. The son of Jaro refused to testify that certain prisoners died of natural causes when it was obvious that they had died at the hands of the mayor of Pototan town, thus he was pilloried. He continued to agitate for justice. Vidality/p10 Lemuel T. Fernandez Publisher (On leave) Francis Allan L.

Fortu’s statement was in reaction to the letter sent to her by Dino Gasendo, president of the Progressive Alliance of Capitol Employees (PACE). Gasendo asked Fortu the “actual basis of the computation for tax on bonuses in accordance with the policy being followed by the provincial government in reference to whatever issuances/policies required by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) visa-vis on taxes on bonuses.” Gasendo requested Fortu to “furnish PACE with the necessary legal basis for the computation of the accounting office in the deduction of taxes on employees’ bonuses.” Fortu pointed out that “badly hit by the taxes were those in the provincial government-operated district hospitals.” “Hospital employees have many benefits that fall under what is called as gross taxable income (GTI) which increases their income bracket under the BIR regulations,” she added. Theses is unlike the employees based in the Capitol area who has two sources of income – salaries and overtime pay, thus they have lower GTIs, she said. “Those assigned in the hospitals have additional benefits aside from their salaries like overtime pay, hazard pay, subsistence allowance, night shift differential and PhilHealth allowance,” Fortu said. Because of the GTI, there are some hospital staff who even have a higher income than the governor, she added. Under the BIR regulations all these items classified as income are taxable, Fortu said. On Wednesday, Governor Alfredo Maranon Jr. called on the PACE to prove its claim that the Negros Occidental provincial accountant is wrong in her computation of the taxes imposed on the extra bonuses of its members Otherwise the provincial government may have to pay for a shortfall in tax deductions, he said. Capitol employees numbering about 2,300 will have P40,000 each in additional bonus which was released starting December 18. SHIPPING LINES, INC.

He pointed out that no business will expand in Bacolod and the province, “if they do not feel secured.” They should assure not only the businessmen but especially the general public, Carbon said. Loarca, 61, and former manager of Maybank, was on board his Toyota Rad4 SUV and was about to park near the East View Hotel here when the gunmen onboard a motorcycle blocked his way, shot him four times, and fled. The victim’s family has sought the Friday, December 19, 2014 help of the National Bureau of Investigation in resolving the case. Police are looking into business and traffic altercation as possible motives. The victim’s vehicles was found with bump marks. Earlier, Escarilla dismissed the gunning down of Loarca as an isolated case. 9 NOLITC eyes expansion of IT course offerings BACOLOD City – The Negros Occidental Language and Information Technology Center (NOLITC) plans to develop more short IT courses to further enhance the skills of Negrenses, Governor Alfredo Marañon Jr. said.

The trees were tagged with Global Positioning System coordinates by the TFI personnel during their follow-up operation from November 19 to 22. Superintendent Gabriel Gutierrez, TFI head, said in an inventory report that a total of 70.66 cubic meters or 29,959.84 board feet of fallen logs, and 1, 128.77 cubic meters or 478, 598.48 board feet of standing trees are inside the area. Gutierrez also reported the presence of freshly-cut fallen trees and about one-hectare rice field inside the forest. Timber and wildlife poaching are evident, the TFI report added. The report also stated that native horn bills and parrots which lay eggs above the tree tops were taken by wildlife poachers while cutting the stems of the trees and harvesting the newlyhatched birds. The team destroyed nets and foot traps installed by the poachers, and are also set to conduct an inventory of the remaining portion of the area. In the past months, the TFI discovered 3,000 to 4,000 board feet of illegally cut century old trees inside the wilderness. Inventory showed the hotlogs were worth P14 million and P15 million, respectively. Marañon strongly condemned the act of cutting down trees and poaching of wildlife inside the area and agreed to the team’s recommendation to deputize civilian volunteers as forest guards in the area to minimize or stop forest degradation.

He finally pursued his medical studies at the University of Valencia but did not finish, thus incurring the ire of Rizal. Lopez Jaena defended why he did not finish his medical studies: “On the shoulders of slaves should not rest a doctor’s cape.” “The shoulders do not honor the doctor’s cape, but the doc- Western Visayas Most Read and Respected tor’s cape honors the shoulders,” Rizal intoned. The national hero died of tuberculosis in poverty on January 20, 1896, some 11 months short of his 40th birthday. He was buried in an unmarked grave at the Cementerio del Sub-Oeste of Barcelona the following day. Marcelo H. del Pilar’s death followed on July 4. Rizal was executed on December 30 by firing squad in Bagumbayan. Their deaths ended the great triumvirate of Filipino propagandists, but their works contributed in the liberation of their compatriots from the Spanish colony.

In an interview with Aksyon Radyo-Iloilo, Tupas said stressed that the payment included the IMPCC’s power requirement. “If we look at the contract, there is no excess payment. The contract stipulated the convention center which did not push through. The Ombudsman questioned that provision and eventually became the basis for determining probable cause to file cases against us,” Tupas said.

Lead, which is also commonly found in children’s toys, is also a major environmental health hazard which can have wide-ranging effects on a child’s development and behavior.

Tupas said he has yet to receive the Ombudsman resolution and the one-year suspension meted on provincial accountant Lyd Tupas, assistant provincial accountant Sandra Bionat and General Services Office head Ramie Salcedo. Lyd Tupas, Bionat and Salcedo were ordered suspended for one year after they were found guilty in the administrative case for conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service and neglect of duty. Dennis Ventilacion, Iloilo provincial legal officer, said the respondents have the option to either file an appeal or motion for reconsideration. He said the order was direct- ly addressed to the respondents and the head of implementing agency which is the office of the governor. “There is an instruction from the Ombudsman on how to implement the order,” said Ventilacion. Ventilacion said the provincial legal office is willing to assist Salcedo and Lyd Tupas after the two sought their help. Also in an interview with Aksyon Radyo, Gov. Arthur Defensor, Sr. said he will check if the suspension order is immediately executor or not. “We still cannot implement it as we have not received the suspension order yet. If it is immediately executory, even if they have filed an appeal, we will still implement the order,” Defensor said. loss. “Parents can use their purchasing power to compel manufacturers to offer toys that are safe from dangerous ingredients,” Tarroza added. John Richard Lapascua, DOH-6’s senior health program officer, said partygoers must also be wary of food poisoning and other sickness stemming from too much eating. “That is why moderation is very important. Just eat the right amount of food and drink moderately,” said Lapascua. Lapascua advised the public to avoid smoking and drugs, observe proper diet, drink liquor moderately, get physical (exercise) and relax. Ten Filipinos die of smoking every hour. “It is not only first-hand smoking that kills. Exposure to second-hand smoke is prevalent as well,” said Lapascua. Proper diet includes whole grains, healthy protein, fish, vegetables, fruits and dairy. “They say you are what you eat. Reduce salt, sugar and fats to prevent hypertension and heart diseases. Reduce calories to prevent obesity and increase fiber intake to lower cholesterol level,” he said. Moderation in drinking is a must, according to Lapascua. For men, two drinks are recommended while women are urged to take one drink. One drink corresponds to 12 fluid ounces or 355 ml for beer; 5 fluid ounces or 148 ml for wine; and 1.5 fluid ounces or 44 ml for distilled spirits. DOH emphasized that “stretching your body means stretching your life.” Ways to be physically active include climbing up or going down the stairs, walking, biking, dancing, gardening and cleaning the house. “We can enjoy Christmas without sacrificing our health,” Lapascua said. Farms located in Barangay Baliwagan, San Enrique, was surprised to find their office inside the administrative building already disarray. Vasquez reported the incident to the police saying that the suspect entered the building through the glass window then destroyed the door knob of the cashier’s office. Based on the accounting report to the police, the suspects stole some P1.3 million cash from the cashier’s office. Vargas said their investigation is still ongoing. Bingawan made an astounding performance in the first set of the game through the highflying Jocson. San Rafael tried to steal the momentum from Bingawan through better placing games. The small but terrible Johnrey Miro of Bingawan proved that volleyball is not just for taller guys as he controlled the third set by his impressive placing which allowed Jocson to score wicked spikes. San Rafael’s head coach advised his players to maintain and secure their rotations and positions against Bingawan’s set plays. But a miscommunication led to an empty back court for San Rafael which spelled their doom as Bingawan scored the championship point.

De los Santos An executive of a power firm believes that renewable energy is ideal for an archipelago like the Philippines. Mr. Alexander Brasier of the Energy Renewables Asia, Inc. said that RE is ideal and practical for a country with many islands like the Philippines. Brasier, who signed a memorandum of agreement with the University of San Agustin for the 660 kWh solar power project last Wednesday, said the country has many small communities with very small power needs. “Putting up big power plants is not practical as it is very expensive,” he said. He said RE facilities is both beneficial to the community and to the power sector itself. Aside from energizing small communities, the electricity generated from RE facilities will help reduce the power dependency during peak hours or the time when the need for electricity is at its highest, he said. ERA’s commitment with USA is under the build-leasetransfer scheme. The firm will put up the facilities, the USA will pay its monthly power consumption, and after 15 years, the facility will be owned by the institution.

He based his petition on fare rates history, wherein last December 2008, price of diesel was P34.95 and regular provincial buses charged commuters P8.50 for the first 5 kilometers while regular buses plying Metro Manila charged passengers P9. Since diesel prices are currently at P31.15/liter, Iway asked the board to reduce fare rates of buses nationwide by at least P2. For taxis, he asked flagdown rates be reduced to P30 with P2.50 for every succeeding 300 kilometers.

B2 Business Friday, December 19, 2014 Guardian the daily Western Visayas Most Read and Respected Probe high airline fares - solon MANILA – A congressman said the Congress should investigate why airline fares are still high during peak travel season despite the drop in the prices of fuel products in the world market. Bayan Muna party-list Rep. Neri Colmenares criticized high air fares despite the drop in prices of fuel. “Forty percent na ang ibinagsak ng world market sa presyo. Bumaba na ang pamasahe sa jeepney at sa iba pa, pero ‘yung airline na pamasahe ay hindi pa binababa. In fact, tumataas pa so dapat imbestigahan ng Kongreso and we will push for a very serious investigation of the airlines who refuse to lower the plane fares despite the sub- stantial decrease in world prices and in spite of the dismal services nila,” the lawmaker said. Colmenares wants the investigation when Congress resumes sessions in January 2015. “So imbestigahan ‘yan sa Enero itong mga airlines na palaging delayed, na palaging hindi nagbibigay ng ta- mang serbisyo pero napakataas pa rin ng presyo ng pamasahe sa eroplano kahit bumaba na ng 40 percent ang world prices sa gasoline,” he said. LPG Marketer’s Association Rep. Arnel Ty, meanwhile, reiterated his previous call for a rollback in the prices of electricity and basic commodities. “Malaking bagay din ang pagbaba ng presyo ng petrolyo dahil ito ‘yung historical draft ng world market…Ang goods ay affected ng pagbaba na ito, mapa-bakal man ‘yan o kung ano mang basic commodities ang ating ginagamit sa ngayon ay may effect po ‘yan. So we are urging DTI to continue for the call to pagbaba ng mga presyo,” he said.

The tax bureau once again exceeded its nine-month sin tax collection target due to the nearly double than expected excise tax payments by cigarette manufacturers, data from the Department of Finance showed. The total collection from tobacco and liquor products is 42 percent more than the P64.54 billion nine-month target set by government. Government revenues from so-called sin products also grew by 40 percent from P65.45 billion yearon-year. BIR Commissioner Kim Henares attributed the higher than expected revenues from tobacco and liquor products to the steady consumption of cigarettes despite a series of tax increases since January 2013. Henares said cigarette prices in the country remained relatively cheap compared t o pri ces i n neighboring countries. HV percent short of the P30.39 billion target. The figure was an 11 percent increase yearon-year from P24 billion. The government is expecting sin taxes to reach P110.33 billion this year, P72.12 billion of which are expected to come from tobacco while P38.21 billion will come from alcoholic products. Henares said she is confident that the BIR will exceed its target for the year. Next year, the BIR is tasked to collect P130 billion from sin products.
