Magkano na ngaun ang franchising ng Jabee? hehehe

Daghan advantages kung company owned. Mas daghan benefits and mas dako sweldo. For the operation side, no problems with ordering or with finances kung sa company coz ihatag lang na sa company. All we have to do is liquidate lang all expenses and take care of our net income. ang franchise is bayran gyud tanan orders before i-deliver. The only diadvantage kung company owned ka kay ang employees pwede lang ilabay bisan asa nga company owned store, naa mi reshuffling whereas ang franchise pwede lang ka stay-put sa imong store until mo-resign ka. Yep, JB Surigao is doing great!

I missed that event already.... basta Sunday gani gana kaayo mo kaon...hehehe:cheers:

well, its a Sunday Reg, most Butuan people are in the movies, in the mall, in the church or in the bargain tiangges, or in the beach...

ugma na sila surf dire :)

I remember when i was a kid... pag mo adto gani mi sa akong Nanay sa Langihan, kaon jud ako tumong didto... kinilaw jud daun na... :cheers::cheers: Head akong uncle diha sa my fish landing... Pastor ang last name...hehehehe :cheers::cheers:

Mga peps, ka remember mo na meron Jerry's Shoppers World sa BXU sa may gilid ng Agusan River? Diba nasunog to? Ano nga kaya ang dahilan non? Wala atang insurance kse ndi na bumalik sa BXU. Diba meron din ang Surigao non? Nag close nata sila diba...

For a small store, it's 25M (included na ang store itself, equipment plus the training of the team plus the famous Jollibee standee). The price goes higher if magkadako ang store.

Magkano na ngaun ang franchising ng Jabee? hehehe

1. It's the 6th largest Philippine city in terms of land area.
2. It's one of the 33 highly urbanized independent cities.
3. It's a first class city.
4. It's the 30th most populous city in the country.

Kung independent city ang BXU so it means to say na hindi na sya hawak ng Agusan del Norte. Kse ang Cabadbaran na ang Capital diba? So dapat sa adress BXU, Caraga Philippines... (correct me if I'm wrong) Musta na kaya ung proposed new Capitol of ADN sa may Cabadbaran can anyone gives status on it?

I think Butuan City lang ang name. Wala na apelyido. Just like Davao City. Gigamit pa ba nang Capitol dinha sa may unahan Gaisano?

Nag acquire na ang Provincial Govt ug yuta sa Cabadbaran for the new Capitol. However, ang nakapadugay sa construction is not the budget. Actually, ang budget, naa na. Ang problema are the staff working at the capitol. Almost tanan sa ila nag puyo sa Butuan City. Kung mabalhin man gani ang Capitol sa Cabadbaran, either madala sila ug transfer didto, or matangtang sila trabaho. Until now, nag negotiate pa sila.

dugay na independent ang BXU Reg, I think 1985 pa ata, when it gained highly urbanized status....since then BXU voters are no longer complied to vote for provincial posts...

haha, wala oi, gawas kong naa kay ibidinsya !

di ba aduna man pod ka kandiis Ian? naa ba to?

Do you know unsa ila plano ana nga building after mahuman ang sa Cabdbaran? May unta himuon nila og Museum kay karaan man tan-awon ang building.

the land where Agusan del Norte Capitol stands and the park.....is a property donated by the Guinfonas during the divsion of Agusan into Sur and Norte....the provincial government willhave to confer to the Guingonas what will be the future use of the site should they relocate to Cabadbaran once the building there is finished

Bitaw nakunsinsiya ko kay akoy ngpasugod sa topic about Iraq Employment Ban lifting. Nghubog na hinuon

this recession has taken its toll on the IT jobs in the Pilipinas.....Intel for instance had just shut down their plant in Cavite....Mactan locators at MEPZ too are downsizing workforce...

the opening of Iraq to Philippine skilled labor should be welcomed...

lucky for BXU....its economic base is more on food,agro,agri,and aqua industries... I think the effect of global slowdown will be minimal on agro based industries and industries involved in food production

Ayaw kaguol kuya... Siya man gud pod ang star of day ang night karon sa ilaha...:banana:

Basin nidaghan na ang tourists nga moadto that's why na-improve na ang dalan. Nindot man coz on the way to the falls, you'll see the sea, a river and a lake. Murag connected lang sila tanan.

According to the Flying Star computation of Feng Shui; there are nine different stars which fly over different geographical sections each year based on the rotation of the planets.

The Wealth and Prosperity Star this Earth Ox Year will be positioned at the South East.

With this alignment of this prosperity star towards our direction relative to the center of the Philippines, the Year of the earth Ox will usher in greater prosperity for Butuan.

Agusan Marsh Sanctuary ~ UNESCO World Heritage Center
Bunawan Agusan del Sur

Agusan Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, protected by law, covers an area of 14,835.989 hectares. It is a vast complex of freshwater marshes and watercourses with numerous small shallow lakes and ponds in the upper basin of the Agusan River and its tributaries which rise in the hills of eastern Mindanao. Some parts of the marsh are used for traditional fish ponds and rice paddies. The site acts as storage for rain water and acts as the most natural effective protection and defense from floods to the Agusan plain.

It is one of the largest and the most contained freshwater catch basin wetland in the Philippines. The main habitats of the marsh include freshwater swamp forest (49%), secondary scrub (14%), herbaceous swamp (7%), lakes, pools and rivers (10%), rice paddies and other agricultural land (6%), and small settlements (6%).

The Marsh is a valuable habitat for water birds such as species of wild ducks, herons and egrets. It is also the refuge of the rare Oriental Darter (Anhinga melanogaster) and Purple Swamp Hen (Porphyrio porphyrio) and the threatened Philippine Hawk Eagle, Spotted Imperial Pigeon and Rufous-lored Kingfisher.

my grandfather was a naturalized Filipino Chinese....

Chinoys have made an important mark as far as community building...they have risen from rags to the ranks and the riches....brought by sheer work and perseverance..

My mother used to tell us when they arrived here in BXU from then war torn Cotabato, Chinoys at that time sell all tyoes of goods in the roads, they go house to house, selling from banig to tupperwares...one prominent Chinese in Butuan who rose from these now happens to own one of Caraga's largest hotel here in BXU..

I'm sure nga mas anindot pa jud tan-awon ang plaza area kung
aduna pay maayo nga landscaping sa area, pero kung naa kay
ikahatag nga ideya kuya rex.. i-share lang dayon ha. :)


there was a plan before to expand the area of the park...

the PNP (Central Police Station) Building (used to be Butuan Municipal Hall Building in the 1940s)...will be transferred...and the area will be developed as an extension of the park across JC Aquino....I dunno what's the status of that plan

hahaha... naa jud diay buwaya dihaa dapita kuya Bob?.. :bash:

The Almont ba or Balangai hotel ang largest hotel in BXU? Any Idea?

my grandfather was a naturalized Filipino Chinese....

Chinoys have made an important mark as far as community building...they have risen from rags to the ranks and the riches....brought by sheer work and perseverance..

My mother used to tell us when they arrived here in BXU from then war torn Cotabato, Chinoys at that time sell all tyoes of goods in the roads, they go house to house, selling from banig to tupperwares...one prominent Chinese in Butuan who rose from these now happens to own one of Caraga's largest hotel here in BXU..

I dont think if they still exists.... Maybe big bayawak :hahaha: I'm sure naa dagku diha na snake like anaconda... I would consider Agusan Marsh as Amazon.... hahaha hadlok diha kung ikaw ra isa mag banka....

the Agusan Marsh crocodiles will take care of them :)

an underpass would be desirable considering that it will NOT block the view of the Cathedral and the park....similar to what was done on QC Memorial Park in Quezon City....where an underpass from the QC city hall connects it to their park

I dont think if they still exists.... Maybe big bayawak :hahaha: I'm sure naa dagku diha na snake like anaconda... I would consider Agusan Marsh as Amazon.... hahaha hadlok diha kung ikaw ra isa mag banka....

fortunately though however, there has been NO reported croc attacks around the area since I was born Reg :)

maybe the residents there really know how to respect the place...they are living along with it and not against it :)

The Almont ba or Balangai hotel ang largest hotel in BXU? Any Idea?

its now Dottie's Reg, after completing their expansion project

That's a good idea Bob. Para dili masapawan ang Church pati ang kahoy. Sa laktod nga pagka sulti mamahimong bililhon ang maong park inubanan sa mga dagkung kahoy nga nagapalibot sa atong dakbayan ug maibsan na unya ang crimen nga maoy unang problema sa nasod... ug kini mamahimong ihemplo sa mga uban dakbayan kung kini mag malampuson ug makanunayong paglambo sa atong dakbayan...toink...:hahaha:

Mapasalamaton kita nga mirespeto kining atong mga kaigsuonan nga dihang dapita.... Ilang gitagaan og bili ang maong lugar aron kini maipreserba. :)

PGMA allots Php 2 billion for massive reforestation project

BUTUAN CITY, Jan. 26 (PNA) -– President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has earmarked some P2 billion for a massive reforestation project for forest lands and protected areas throughout the country.

As part of the measures to counteract climate change, President Arroyo directed the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to lead line agencies of the government and various sectors of the society in the continuing reforestation program in idle lands within forest lands and protected and watershed areas.

To date, the DENR has already planted an estimated 10 million tree seedlings of various tree species in some 13,000 hectares within the country’s watershed and protected areas the past years.

The massive tree planting in watershed and protected areas is part of the “Tree for Life” program of Pres. Arroyo and DENR Secretary Lito Atienza.

Meanwhile, Agusan del Sur Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Officer (PENRO) Sixto Badua on Sunday suggested the agreement on three years maintenance of planted trees among the local governments, tree plantation holders, companies and other concerned agencies that conducted tree planting activities in their respective localities, should have five years instead thorough maintenance for a more successful tree plantation program.

“Our local officials down to barangay level play a vital role to these sustainable activities,” Badua said.

He also said that all agencies of the government particularly the Department of Education has also a vital role to play in the information education campaign (IED) in the environment preservation and forest protection, and mining and forestry laws rules and regulations.

“Our students from elementary up to college level should know about the environment and natural resources and the climate change,” he said.

He said people should be encouraged to go on tree plantation and agricultural activities while farm-to-market roads and irrigation program should step up through the IEC program. (PNA)

He said people should be encouraged to go on tree plantation and agricultural activities while farm-to-market roads and irrigation program should step up through the IEC program. (PNA)

Good evening BXU....Sorry I'm late. Nakaduty man gud ko karon.

To start my day, I've been following a blog of the recent Valley Golf incident involving a Cabinet Secretary and his sons which I presume you are all aware of. Lately the blog has shifted to political issues and to my surprise two bloggers mentioned some personalities there in BXU regarding illegal logging activities. Here is the link of Bambi da la Paz blog:

Just scroll down (about 3/4 of this page) and search for the contribution of Manassas Benedict and a certain Alvin. I'm aware that this a very sensitive issue as it named names that's why I don't want to comment on this (for your eyes only na lang and keep it to yourself). Btw, the link of this blog was also posted in the Marawi Forum last December.

very bad weather when i left butuan... i was not so lucky my flight was canceled due to bad weather, on that day i traveled butuan cagayan de oro valencia then davao for my 745 pm flight to manila to catch up my international flight... Bancasi Airport still the same since the last time i left... I don't see the improvements and expansion... especially lights on the runway which is a very important and essential for the pilot to navigate during bad weather conditions... and the terminal itself still the same infact they are more flights now from cebu and manila they should evaluate the comfort and safety of the passengers...

actually the Butuan Airport Development Plan was already conceived 6 years ahead prior to that incident in 2007....this was under the Asian Development Bank's Third Airports Development Program.....

However the DOTC-ATO failed to expedite the detailed plans of the 6 airports across the country thus fund release was severely stalled ending in the cancellation of the loan ..

@ Alfechekarl

A quote from Bob in response to your concern on Butuan Airport. I have the same sentiment as yours.

wow, i think it would be shorter if you have taken the butuan-dvo road. :)

it's rainy season here in the country..t'was that time when most flights to NorMin and Caraga were all cancelled

that airport upgrade isn't completely done yet....unfortunately turtle paced work

but the runway lights which I believed you did not see (coz you did not make it to the runway as your flight was cancelled)...were already installed..

the terminal building especially the pre departure really I must say needs a fast upgrade works NOW

While runway lighting is imperative for ensuring safe night time vision for pilots, it has some visibility limitations if the weather is really bad. The costly Instrument Landing system (ILS) is best suited for difficult landing conditions even at 0 visibility. This provides precision guidance to an aircraft approaching a runway with less intervention from the control tower. This navigational aids has been utilized in busy airports for quite a long time. It was first installed in 1940's. The latest of this kind of technology is called Localizer Performance with Vertical guidance (LPV).

Its really good for BXU to have this kind of equipment. This will accommodate night flight soon once this renovations be materialized.
