Bitaw daku ang Bayugan mao nga nag libog jud ko sa una kung asay tinuod nga Bayugan. Bagyugan Uno is more qualified than of San Franz. Next year i think kung kayod silag insakto... hehehe I hope this Agusan del Sur College of Agriculture and Technology will be NORMISIST-CSU campus.... IMO...

I agree with you eskersyon, we cannot judge ora mismo kung angay ba sila pag ka city.. who knows diba.. kay when it comes to commercial capability, naa man sad ipakita ang San Franz.. look at jabee.. not just that, wala lang ta kasayod basin sunod tuig naa na sila mcdo... and ug maunhan pa na sila sa Surigao... ehehe bitaw hope nga magka mcdo na ang surigao... we didnt know that mang inasal is in trento na diay... hehehe kalit lang sila og butho.. hehehe ug naunhan pa hinuon ang BXU... diba so therefore dili lang jud mahibaloan ang panahon.... kay ang ilang mga leaders are trying man sad.. ningkamot man jud sila kay basin maunhan sa panon... these other municipalities in ADN like RTR, Tubay, kitcharao, Santiago murag hinay sila... kay mostly sad ang mga taga Tubay diha man sad mag transact ang uban ug business sa Cabadbaran ug ang RTR sad kay arang kaduol ra man jud sa BXU mao nga hakot halos sa BXU. hehehe then ang Santiago mga murag mingaw pajag.. iapil nato ang mun. of Afga and Sibagat.. pero dili ko mo conclude kay wala pako kaadto didtong dapita.... :cheers:

I think the conversion of San Francisco and Trento into a city is not impossible. We have to wait for years. Like Tagum City, San Francisco lies on a crossroad in going south to Davao and going east to Bislig. The seat of the provincial government, in Patin-ay, is very near to San Francisco. Trento lies along the boundary of Caraga and Compostela Valley. Actually near Trento is a place whose population is much bigger than Trento but not a municipality. It is Diwalwal. Most of the miners in Diwalwal transact business in Trento compared to Monkayo as Poblacion Trento is much nearer than Poblacion Monkayo. Most of them are even registered voters of Trento. Previously Trento was just a barangay of Bunawan and like Magallanes, Agusan del Norte who was then a part of Butuan City, these two barangays were converted into a municipality in 1971. A current add on for Trento now is the highway to be constructed in going to Bukidnon. Currently there are buses from Davao City that pass Trento and send their passengers to Santa Josefa, Veruela, Loreto and areas near the boundary of Bukidnon. Just sharing what I got from people there who were my friends and relatives being a member of the Piencenaves clan.

Five elementary schools in Agusan Sur receive educational aid from Japan

By Dave M. Suyao

Butuan City (16 July) -- Five depressed elementary schools receive some 600 school materials as an act of friendship extended by the Japanese children to poor but determined children in Agusan del Sur thru the Philippine National Red Cross, Agusan del Sur Chapter.

According to Lyn Garcia, National Red Cross Youth governor, the 600 bags contain notebooks, drawing books, crayons, pencils and other school supplies needed by elementary school children.

"These supplies that you receive came from the heart of children from Japan thru the Japanese Red Cross. I want you to know, that children like you in Japan spare 1 Japanese Yen every day out of their allowances in order to buy these school materials for you as gesture of genuine friendship that they want to extend to Filipino children thru the International Friendship Project of the Red Cross", Lyn Garcia said.

Coalition Elementary School principal Babylinda Doysabas of Barangay Coalition, San Luis, advised the pupils to take extra care of the educational aid they receive saying that is the only way they can show their gratitude to the generosity of their fellow children from Japan.

In response, with tears rolling down on her face, the President of the Pupils’ Supreme Council of Coalition Elementary School said, they did not expect they will receive "gifts" like what they received from children outside the country. She also promised they will repay the gesture of friendliness by taking good care of the materials in order that the love behind the "gifts" will linger forever and friendship will flourish.

In his message, Rev. Solomon Bilaoen, Chairman of PNRC Agusan del Sur Chapter Board of Directors, said the "gift" giving is just the start of a deeper development of friendship between the Filipino and Japanese children. "Someday, when our children and the Japanese children and the children around the world would share ideas and experiences thru writings and other means of communication, then true friendship will grow and that will mean better cooperation and understanding which will lead to international peace that is so elusive", Rev. Bilaoen said.

Rev. Solomon Bilaoen and Christyll Basan, PNRC provincial Administrator, led the team composed of PNRC Board of Directors and Red Cross Youth volunteers in the distribution of the educational materials to New Visayas Elementary School in San Francisco, San Vicente Elementary School in Veruela, Noveli Elementary School in Rosario, Coalition Elementary School in San Luis and Mabuhay Elementary School in Prosperidad who were chosen to be the recipients of the Red Corss Youth International Friendship Project since July 13 and ended July 15, 2009.

Ay oo diay, I've forgotten...:lol::lol: si rgejeex man gud bah...:lol::lol: BUT Yes, it's true Filino. An Internet Cafe is not a typical Cafe. Ang iyang original concept is to provide Internet access and Entertainment at the same time. Actually, those who maintained this are those who caters to the Business people and the Working Class. Some of those Internet Cafe's especially here in BXU just have a snack corner or a kiosk. Naa puy uban, purely internet access ra gyud. And I think that it's one of those nga maoy naadtuan ni regj and his mother..hehe

I've never been to most of those places mentioned above, except for Davao. Trento and Tagum mura'g nakalabay lang :) But I do wish that those deserving a cityhood will be granted to them.

Yes @bluepanther, ang fastfood sa TITA's CAFE separate ang entrance.Tapad ra gyud sa ilang TAKE OUT counter. Check out this place when you're in Butuan. I think they also offer value meals. It is located near Urios College and Metrobank.

$800m Railway Gets Nod
By LITO RULONA - Correspondent Updated July 18-19, 2009 12:00 AM

Retired police general Thompson Lantion, DOTC under secretary leads transportation officials during the ground breaking of the opening of the Mindanao railway system office in Bulua, Cagayan de Oro City.

The House of Representatives through the Committee on Infrastructure and Urban Development has approved the construction of the first Mindanao railways project from Cagayan de Oro City to Laguindingan in Misamis Oriental costing US$800 million.

Rep. Rufus Rodriguez,( 2nd District, Cagayan de Oro City), who joined the oversight committee for the Mindanao railways project, said that the project would commence before the year-end.

He said an office was recently established in Cagayan de Oro City to over see the preparation and implementation stage of the multi-million railway project.

“Gi-finalized na karon ang feasibility study and it would be implemented soon. Construction stage would follow,” he added.

The approved Mindanao railway project will be implemented in four phases. The first phase is from Laguindingan to Cagayan de Oro City; second phase is Laguindingan to Iligan City; third phase is Cagayan de Oro to Phividec area in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental and the final phase from Iligan City to Linamon town, Lanao del Norte.

“This would become the first railway system in the entire Mindanao stretching across 2,000-kilometer when completed,” Rodriguez said.

He said the project is done through the effort of DOTC Secretary Leandro Mendoza, transportation undersecretary Guiling Mamondiong; House Speaker Prospero Nograles together with the Mindanao based congressmen.

Rodriguez said the facilities to be used in the railways system are modern equipment used in India and Europe provinces.

He said the first phase of the railways system is expected to be finished in one-and-half- year, just in time for the operation of the Laguindingan International Airport in 2013.

“This would become the cheapest and fastest mode of transportation in Misamis Oriental. Ang atong mga negosyante dili na mobiyahe nga magdala sa ilang sakyanan. Ibilin lang nila sa terminal,” he added.

The rest of the project would attempt to connect Butuan City to Davao, Cotabato and Zamboanga provinces as well as the cities of Malaybalay, General Santos and Zamboanga.

Earlier, Mamondiong claimed that Saudi Arabian, Spanish and Chinese entities have expressed interest in helping finance the project.

The project would require the acquisition of about 360 hectares which would be used for the construction of formation and rail tracks and for the location of the depot and terminal stations.

ilan na ba hotels ng butuan?

Fahdingding, diri mag ihap ta sa ako lang nasayran ug ang uban na ang mo puno:

2. Hotel Karaga
3. Almont Inland Resort and Hotel

5. Goat to-geder Hotel (spelling)
6. Dotties Place
7. Embassy Hotel
8. Luxury Hotel
9. Hensonly Plaza Hotel
10. Royal Plaza Hotel
11. Emerald Villa Hotel
12. msbunny hotel :hahaha:

wala nako kabalo sa uban...

msbunny thanks sa pics...

naka bantay mo sa Hotel Karaga? nga naay kabilya on top! kay based sa akong nasayran... hehehe nga dapat daw dili lang kay 3 storey na sya... na gipit lang sa budget mao nga taman ra sa 3.... :bash: hahahha

dili na tinood Rex. Hotel Karaga right now has 3 full floors and a mezanine floor for VIP rooms for Blue Haven KTV Bar. Dapat 4 full floors siya with a swimming pool sa rooftop. But as the construction progressed they noticed the building was sinking. Meaning there was a mistake in the calculation for the pile driving requirement. This prompted the owner to demolish the 4th floor to unload some weight and prevent the building from sinking more. The next time you visit Hotel Karaga mapansin nimo ubos ang flooring sa ground floor. mas ubos pa sa level sa montilla blvd.

naa pay hotel diri sa may old china bank murag Royal Plaza Hotel man cguro ni.... murag taas taas sad ni nga hotel ba... operational pa ba gihapon ni sya?

operational pa ang Royal Plaza Hotel, Luxury Hotel, Embassy Hotel, Emerald Villa Hotel and the other old hotels in the city. According to the Department of Tourism, the city still needs more hotel rooms to accommodate more national conventions and the like. Just imagine kung magdungan ang national conventions sa Dotties ug Almont Inland, asa na lang kaha magstay ang uban participants. he he he twice na nag-expand ang Dotties and Balanghai is also planning some expansion by adding a mutistorey building. The abandoned Carl Patricks Hotel is now undergoing renovations and will be back in business in due time. More hotels are expected to sprout in the city within the next 5 years. Right now the old unrenovated hotels in the city are still alive because they still have clients (those who cannot be accommodated anymore in better hotels and maybe because of the rate).

Good Pm guys,




Carl Patricks Hotel will now have a new name...



...it will soon be called......



























...PRINCE HOTEL....:yes:



At least that's what a VERY reliable source told us. We also learned that the owner of PRINCE HOTEL in Cebu (near Ayala Center) is the brother-in-law of VU (VU is the new owner of Carl Patricks).


If ever, my PRINCE HOTEL na rin tayo :banana: or shall we say, PRINCE CONDOTEL....

Good Afternoon people of the world!

We're back! Mag read back usa ko. hehehe

hallooooo.....

what's the latest in butuan now a days...

politicians buzzing a for 2010 elections... looking for infrastructure projects to associate with their names... hmmmmm...

No! ADS is not listed as poorest provinces in PI. Dako ang source of income sa ADS. ADN and SDN i think is part of one of the poorest provinces in PI. Datu ang Del Sur oi.. hehehe Surigao and Agusan del Sur.. ang mga Norte lang nga luya kaayo....

Nope. Downgraded baya ang mga siyudad sa ADS reg because of low city income, so pasabot ana, wala sila'y wawart. Kung kwartahan palang ang ADS, daghan tana'y nahimo ug siyudad sa ADS. I think I heard a report that ADS is one of the poorest provinces in the Philippines gyud. I also think nga ang mga pulitiko didto sa ADS ang mga datu diha. I don't think that ADN is a poor province, I mean, ADN has Butuan City and has municipalities nga mga nindot like Nasipit, Cabadbaran, Carmen, etc.

I still have no UPDATE about that sister company of Jollibee I told you about which is supposed to occupy FSUU space vacated by Tita's Cafe. My brother told me wala pa gyud daw sila magkita adtong mag franchise (son of Wing On).



BUT my brother told me also,that another friend had mentioned to him nga instead of MANG PEPE.....(Yes, Mang PEPE...hehehe..any violent reactions? :lol:), a DIMSUM which they'll also franchise is now being considered.

BUT like I said guys, this isn't SURE pa gihapon till my brother says so. Ako lang ni gi mention here karon coz I know how BOB & BXU-GCP reacted to Mang Pepe...:lol::lol:


So, if ever, which is better, MANG PEPE or a DIMSUM?

How I wish :lol::lol: The son of Wing- On wanted that Tita's Cafe space for their new Franchise venture. Their main market will be the students of Urios, so most likely, a fastfood chain ( basi Mang Pepe ) or a DIMSUM.

:banana::banana: GOOD NEWS jud kaayo na MSBUNNY... wow... PRINCE HOTEL..... OR PRINCE CONDOTEL... :cheers:

Good Pm guys,




Carl Patricks Hotel will now have a new name...



...it will soon be called......



























...PRINCE HOTEL....:yes:



At least that's what a VERY reliable source told us. We also learned that the owner of PRINCE HOTEL in Cebu (near Ayala Center) is the brother-in-law of VU (VU is the new owner of Carl Patricks).


If ever, my PRINCE HOTEL na rin tayo :banana: or shall we say, PRINCE CONDOTEL....

Nope. Downgraded baya ang mga siyudad sa ADS reg because of low city income, so pasabot ana, wala sila'y wawart. Kung kwartahan palang ang ADS, daghan tana'y nahimo ug siyudad sa ADS. I think I heard a report that ADS is one of the poorest provinces in the Philippines gyud. I also think nga ang mga pulitiko didto sa ADS ang mga datu diha. I don't think that ADN is a poor province, I mean, ADN has Butuan City and has municipalities nga mga nindot like Nasipit, Cabadbaran, Carmen, etc.

If the politicians mao ray datu sa Agusan del Sur then I think same ra sa Agusan del Norte. Plaza's are still lording over the two Agusan provinces though the Amante's are now showing their strength also. The siblings of D. O. Plaza are still there in Patin-ay, Prosperidad and in Butuan City.

hahahaha ayaw jud mog sulod sa regjeex cafe kay mahal kaayo.... $5... hehehhehe

Ok raman gihapon og Mang Pepe diha sa may tita's cafe' either of this 2... basta dili lang ma bakante... hehehe

Based on the statistics mentioned from past thread i think, mas dakug income ang ADS kay sa ADN and mas daghan population ang ADS ke sa ADN IMO. BXU is exclueded na in ADN politically... ambot ug asa to nako nabasa oi... hinay kaayo ang net diri nya blocked pa jud ang ubang site... If someone can recall and give some sources, appreciate it!

Nice ang PRINCE HOTEL in Cebu. Mura'g sosyal. I've seen a lot of Koreans nga naga check-in didto. Duol ni siya sa Ayala Center, isang liko lang..hehehe. And since ang owner of PRINCE HOTEL in Cebu is the brother in law of Mr. VU, it is possible that this PRINCE HOTEL in Butuan is a joint venture?



Another news, guys, A "POSH SPA" will open soon atbang sa butuan Doctor's. The owner of this Spa & Saloon is no other than Ma'am Angel Amante. Hmmm...tingnan nga natin kung "posh" spa nga as what the name implies :nuts:


And, I was at Body & Sole yesterday. I asked them if it's possible for them to open a branch in Surigao. Ingon sila, no plan pa as of now. I asked them, how about David Saloon in Butuan? kay naa na baya sa Surigao. Their reply was that there's no way David Saloon can compete with Body & Sole, Viamonde, Skin & Body & Bloomingdale's ( Dating Pretty Looks Saloon) in Butuan. Aside from that, daghan na lagi kuno diri mga saloon diri Bxu,plus mag open pa si Ma'am Angel Amante...hehe.. uwahi na daw ang David Saloon, maglisud na sila. Huh? :nuts: Bakit naman? The more, the merrier,di ba? Iba din naman if we have a David Saloon IMO.

Mao lagi na si Lolong Trillo, ang tag-iya sa Lolong Trillo salon. Siya ang tig make-up sa reporters ug anchor sa TV Patrol Caraga. Naa man iyahang name sa credit roll.

Hasta sad diay ang ampayon Franz, nag widening nasad sila? wow... daku pa jud kaayo ug chance nga mag 4 lanes na dihang dapita kay lapad man ang area.... pero murag appektuhan ang dagkong kahoy diha sa St. Peter Seminary College diba naka bantay nga naa dagku nga mga kahoy diha kilid sa dalan?

Yeah, gi-widen nila ang road into four lanes. Sakto ang government nga padak-on ang mga dalan diha sa Baan-Ampayon kay didto man ang entry point sa mga tawo nga gikan sa northern and southern part sa Mindanao, labi na ang Davao ug Agusan del Sur ug Surigao. Murag gipangputol naman nila. I didn't notice reg kay murag sa sulod ra sa seminaryo ang mga dagko nga trees, uban sila sa mga unggoy ug sa Philippine Eagle.

mao ba? so mas nice jud tan awon ang 4 lanes nga naka aspalto... ilaha unta butangan og isla isla no kanang pareha sa tagum ba.. nga ang national highway lapad kaayo tas naa isles sa tunga tas nice pa jud.....

Kusog kaayo ang ulan oi. Fair man ang weather didto sa Davao, pag-abot namo sa Agusan del Sur, bagsak dayon ang ulan while we were eating sa Halang-Halang Express didto sa Hill's View in Trento (dili man halang ang ilahang mga pagkaon didto that's why I'd like to call it "NAAY PAGKA-HALANG" Express hahaah). Maygani pag-abot namo diri kay ni-undang na pero frequent na ang rainfall karon ba.

mao ba? so mas nice jud tan awon ang 4 lanes nga naka aspalto... ilaha unta butangan og isla isla no kanang pareha sa tagum ba.. nga ang national highway lapad kaayo tas naa isles sa tunga tas nice pa jud.....

Bitaw, taas ang mga isla didto sa Tagum with wide highway pod and with Palm trees like foreign countries.

mao lagi... big timer jud na si lolong kay murag sya man sad cguro ang official saloon sa city.... :) tig make up ni daisey plaza.... murag sya sad ang tig make ni madam salas sa SJIT.. hahahhaha mo no comments ko ni madam...

wow daghan jud dala nga good news ni si msbunny og si Franz da..

Msbunny, huge building ba ng saloon ni Angel Amante? kay basin og bukot bukot ra sad. Pero basin dili kay tag iya baya na sila sa mining company diha sa Tubay.. hehehe banggi-itang opponents ni Plaza... hehehe


I can't really tell unsa ka daku ang area kay wala pa man siguro nahuman regj. I think tapad man siguro ni siya sa LA CAFEZA. Let's just hope it's not "bukot bukot". Sayang, sana she could have franchised nalang David Saloon kay sure market pa. With all those existing spas & saloons in our city, it'll be quite a tough start if it's not a "BIG" name at all :ohno:

bitaw murag wala ta sa pinas kung makalabay ta og tagum ba... nice kaayo ilang lugar da... very clean...

kanus a kaha pulihan ng gipang tanom diha sa montilla blvd no.. pulihan tana nila og palm tree tapos pintalan og bright colors ang bricks... murag gi gubutan man ko anang murag pine tree bitaw... murag sagbutan ko mag tanaw....

Bitaw, taas ang mga isla didto sa Tagum with wide highway pod and with Palm trees like foreign countries.

bitaw tama jud ka msbunny.. pero naa man sad taste si angel amante... naka dungong man gani ko nga mag tayo syag shopping center... murag depende kung asa nila unahon pag tukod ang sa Cabadbaran ba or sa BXU.. kay ang inahan baya niya si Sayong Amante sa CAbadbaran ang magplano sad... ambot ug tinuod sad na sya.. pero sa giingon ko na nga big timer sad na sila... mao na sya ang #1 kalaban pagka Mayor sa BXU karong 2010...

bitaw murag wala ta sa pinas kung makalabay ta og tagum ba... nice kaayo ilang lugar da... very clean...

I agree with that reg ^^ however, there are center islands in south montilla blvd nga daot na ug wala na gina-maintain di pareho sa mga center isles didto sa north padulong kay gipintalan ug ginaputlan ug mga sagbot etc. ang diri kay naay mga guba-guba, walay mga trees ug puro ra sagbot.

Just now @alfechekarl...I have to admit I'm one of those not "updated" or "tagaw" , when it comes to highly advanced technology :lol: So thanks for sharing this one. This new technological development is really big deal. I've only seen this in"futuristic" movie ni Tom Cruise ( forgot the title) but now, touch screen never looked so stunning & enjoyable. Nalingaw gyud ko ug tan-aw.

Mao ba, sayang no.. pero ok lang kay i think once masugdan na ang Malaybalay-BXU road and connected to that Montilla Blvd maging na nice na yan soon...

Once finished, unsa kaha ang itawag na sa Montilla? kay diba national highway na sya.. og dili na sya Montilla Boulevard...

unsa naman status sa mang Inasal?

Good Luck to Alejandra B. Boiser (DENR, Agusan del Sur)

Good Pm guys,
Carl Patricks Hotel will now have a new name...
...it will soon be called......

...PRINCE HOTEL....:yes:



At least that's what a VERY reliable source told us. We also learned that the owner of PRINCE HOTEL in Cebu (near Ayala Center) is the brother-in-law of VU (VU is the new owner of Carl Patricks).


If ever, my PRINCE HOTEL na rin tayo :banana: or shall we say, PRINCE CONDOTEL....

Montilla Blvd ra man siguro na gihapon reg coz the road leading to Malaybalay is not straightly connected to Montilla. Same with JC Aquino Ave nga continuous with the highways.

Mao ba, sayang no.. pero ok lang kay i think once masugdan na ang Malaybalay-BXU road and connected to that Montilla Blvd maging na nice na yan soon...

Once finished, unsa kaha ang itawag na sa Montilla? kay diba national highway na sya.. og dili na sya Montilla Boulevard...

daghan gyud na tga-FSUU in both branches kay a few steps away ra baya. gimingaw na ko sa ilang siopao og lomi. Gimingaw na sad ko sa Tree Garden. Mao pa man gud na sila sikat sa una sa kadtong high school pa ko.

Subayno tops Butuan race
By CLYDE MARIANO
July 19, 2009, 4:09pm

BUTUAN CITY — Fernando Subayno ruled the Butuan leg of the 33rd National Milo marathon elimination Sunday that started and ended near Saint Joseph Church here.

The 25-year-old farmer from Sibagat, Agusan del Sur overtook Angelito Sibayan and Jobert Carolino in the last nine kilometers to cross the finish line alone, an improvement from his fourth place finish last year.

Subayno, who turns 26 on August 8, negotiated the 21-kilometer race through the city’s main streets in one hour, 14 minutes and 58 seconds.

In Santiago City, Isabela, Francisco Dinaming won the race in 1:16.49, but failed to meet the 1:15.00 qualifying standard in the men’s division. He clocked 1:16.49.

Dinaming blamed lack of competition for his slow time.

“I could have made it and run in the finals if the opposition was tough. No one chased me when I spurted away right from the starting gun. I’m very disappointed,” rued the 21-year-old student from Ifugao State College of Agriculture and Forestry.

Nevertheless, Dinaming went home P10,000 as consolation for his effort.

There were also no women qualifiers in the Isabela race.

Subayno was ecstatic with his triumph.

“Nang kumalas ako hindi na ako lumingon. Masaya ako dahil yung biyahe ko galing sa bayan ko hindi nasayang,” said Subayno, who won P10,000 plus a ticket to the finals in October in Manila.

Sibayan, a criminology graduate at the University of Mindanao, finished second in 1:16.08 and Carolino, 24, from Tagum, Davao del Norte, was third in 1:17.52.

Sibayan and Carolino also joined Sabayno to the finals.

Subayno said he hopes to become the first runner from Agusan del Sur to win the country’s premier footrace.

“Sasagarin ko ang tatlong buwan ensayo para may laban. First time ko sasali sa finals.Gagawin ko lahat ang makakaya para manalo,” said Subayno.

Butuan Prepares for a Week-long 59th Charter Day Celebration
July 18, 2009

http://mindanao.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/IMG_2108.JPG

Butuan – Responding to people’s call, the city government opted to conduct yet another Mega Job Fair in time for the week long celebration of the 59th Adlaw Hong Butuan.
Job seekers can avail of the 2-days Adlaw Hong Butuan Mega Job Fair on July 27 and 28 at the city hall lobby, where more than 20 local and overseas agencies were invited to involved in the event.

The new City Tourism Chief whose appointment has already been approved by the Committee on Tourism recently has drafted the calendar of events and presented the same to City Tourism Council Chairperson Daisy B. Plaza, who promised to make the celebration festive.
One event that could draw attention for those in search of action is the motocross competition to be held at the City Sports Complex on August 2, the Charter Day Celebration.
Organizers hope, that this is not simply an adrenaline rush that draws motocross riders, enthusiasts and their families.

http://mindanao.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/IMG-1011.JPG

“It’s also where friendships made, the family atmosphere, discipline and sportsmanship learned, and the excitement and fun”, said City Sports Coordinator, Councillor Randolf Plaza.
Part of the tradition is the wreath laying ceremony on the tomb of Marcos M. Calo who was the congressman to file a bill converting Butuan into a city.

It was on August 2, 1950, that Butuan became a city by virtue of Republic Act No. 523 otherwise known as the City Charter of Butuan, and from being a chartered city, Butuan was reclassified into a highly urbanized city on February 7, 1995 based on its outcome and population.

Boy Daku: Life’s Second Chance, A Miracle
July 18, 2009

by: striker_jem

Butuan – Mayor Democrito D. Plaza finally is home today from Davao in almost a month’s confinement in a hospital.

“What happened to my husband is a miracle from God, it’s hard to believe but I think God has given him a second chance to live,” recounts Daisy B. Plaza, the wife of the Mayor.

It was in June 22 when the Mayor felt unusual the moment he finished his dialysis session at Butuan Doctor’s Hospital. On his way to the comfort room he felt weak, unable to get up.

The Mayor was confined in an ICU and Mrs. Plaza observed him suddenly so quiet and not joking of which he does most of the time.

Mrs. Plaza suspected something might be wrong and called up the doctor’s attention that immediately conducted a CT scan and found out, that the Mayor’s right frontal nerve in his head bursts.

Attending physician temporarily stopped the mayor from taking his 4 types of blood thinner medicines to prevent complications.

Cases such as this it was learned, that within 24 hours after stopping blood thinner medication the patient faces risks.

“Surprisingly, its God miracle that the blood stopped from spreading sparing his vital organs from damage”, said Mrs. Plaza.

http://mindanao.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/IMG-0974.JPG

However, cardiologists wouldn’t take chances and recommended to the family that the Mayor need to be transferred to a hospital in Davao where it is equipped with a catheter laboratory to improve blood flow to the heart under worse situations as an effect of not taking the blood thinning medicine. The Mayor had a history of angioplasty.

“A second chance at life will have a brand new Mayor Democrito D. Plaza II in the coming days. Others may not believe, but the Mayor has seen his purpose, and that would be winning souls, to tell a story of God’s mercy”, Mrs. Daisy B. Plaza said and thanked all the people who prayed for her husbands recovery.

Yep, it's near Ayala. Dili siya impressive nga hotel if you look at it from the outside. Dili nimo siya ma-notice dayon coz daghan man towering buildings within the area nga breathtaking ang facade. Here's the pic and site.

The owner of Golden Prince Hotel owns also the older Golden Valley Hotel which is situated at Pelaez St. right at the back of University of San Carlos Main. Our team was the one who undertook the plumbing design of these buildings. I hope Golden Prince Hotel will not be overshadowed by the 15 storey Elizabeth Hotel which is constructed across Golden Prince.

Yes, this is the Hotel and I agree that it doesn't look that impressive from the outside. Let's just hope that only the name will be the same but not the entire look of our soon PRINCE HOTEL in Butuan.

The owner of Golden Prince Hotel owns also the older Golden Valley Hotel which is situated at Pelaez St. right at the back of University of San Carlos Main. Our team was the one who undertook the plumbing design of these buildings. I hope Golden Prince Hotel will not be overshadowed by the 15 storey Elizabeth Hotel which is constructed across Golden Prince.


Ah ok. So the complete name of this hotel in Cebu is Golden Prince Hotel. Our source just told us that the former Carl Patrick's will be named PRINCE Hotel. But who knows, maybe it's gonna be Golden Prince hotel afterall? :lol: But i like the sound of Prince Hotel better..heheh.

I see. Are you not by any chance would also be doing the same plumbing design with Carl Patrick's? :)

I like Prince rather than Golden Prince... sus og himuon og Golden Prince na sya. na i gold na nila ang paint.. :bash:... maayo unta to og Prince lang para lain ang paint.. or ibalik nila ang green paint.. kay mas nice and cool tan awon... clean and green nata karon... hehehehe

---Pag-abot kang Mindanao,
Ana na lang tawon si Mindanao: "Kaluoy ni Manila, nglisod jud cguro pag-ayo did2 ky grabe bya ang bagyo, ngkinahanglan jud ni pag-ayo sa akong tabang ky nagpadala ug sako pra akong sudlan sa akong bugas itabang sa iya.."

TSK! TSK! TSK!

Mosugot pa ko na mapaso ko sa init nga kan-on ky pwede pa mahuyop, kysa sa prituhon ka sa imong kaugalingong mantika..!!!

In this ladderization mode, the courses of the program may not be overhauled according to the usual TESDA mode.

Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT)
Programming NC IV
Comp. Hardware Servicing NC II
PC Operation NC II

Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS)
Programming NC IV
Comp. Hardware Servicing NC II
PC Operation NC II

Bachelor of Science in Electronics and
Communications Engineering (BSECE)

Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering (BSAgEng) Programming NC IV
PC Operation NC II

Bachelor of Science in Geodetic Engineering (BSGE)
Programming NC IV
PC Operation NC II

Diploma in Computer Technology (DCT)
PC Operation NC II

Inscribed in this curriculum are three Training Regulations (TR) from TESDA namely PC Operations (NC II) on the first year of the course, Computer Hardware Servicing (NC II) on the second year and, Programming (NC IV) on the third year. Each TR corresponds to one (1) diploma from TESDA after completion. The fourth year concludes the entire course and the graduate receives a diploma for the whole program from CHED.

Based on the IT programs sa NORMISIST-CSU, karon lang ko kamatikod nga Agricultural Engineering already applied with computer programming... i think it's one an only in the region. I dont know though kung naa pod ang Agusan del Sur State College of Agricultural and Technology. Dapat isahon nalang ning ADSCAT sa NORMISIST...

wala pa na maapil Franz ang kadtong ilang gipang send sa laing school for additional PhD. They sent both local and international. swerte ang kadtong naadto sa International school... :banana::cheers:

Really? you mean all expenses shouldered by the school?

based sa photos sa U/C sa 248 diners, karon pa ko kita sa metro aid.... hehehe bag-o na ila uniform hehehehe proud of you Manang...... kana limpyuhan nato ang dalan aron walay mag yaw yaw.... hahahaha

dugay-dugay na ang Metro Aide diri reg, mga 4am palang sa buntag, silhig silhig na sila sa mga kadalanan sa bxu

hahaha :lol::lol::lol:

Actually, it's not that easy to just take pictures of establishments with guards outside, most especially pa gyud mga banks. Siguro if naa kay kauban unya picture2ran nimo siya unya background ang building, okay ra.

I am working on the flickr now atebunns....but nothing is working too...:nuts::ohno:

mao ba? hope nga mahuman na sya before december... para nako i check ang bhe bhe nako.. hehehe

So ang mang inasal, 2nd level ra jud sya? wala naman lang unta nila gi 3 level aron sikat... hehhee

I don't know if Mang Inasal would put up a second floor because I can't see the framework on top of the first floor and the workers were working on the first floor pa. Ambot sa franchiser ani, dugay kaayo mahuman ang construction. Anyhow, I'll keep you updated kay malabyan man nako pirmi ang U/C site.

hahaha :lol::lol::lol:

Probably msbunny! government expenses cguro na sya.... pero naa na syay commitment cguro and wavers na if you graduated those PhD programs mag stay ka ug pila ka years depending upon on their negotiations before ka maka hawa sa school... IMO.

Imagine? Puro ra PhD ang naa sa Normisist ug naa pa gyud uban pa nga nag school here and abroad. Di man siguro pare-pareho na ang ilahang mga major. Naay uban nga PhD in English, PhD in Math, PhD in bla bla bla. Mga doktor man gyud ba. :lol: Exactly reg, those teachers of Normisist are being sponsored by the gov't...

Na-apil raba ko diha sa photo. Ate bunns, try to guess kung asa ko dapit (ayaw lang ug saba kung unsa nga color akong gisuot etc.)

See? Di baya mawala ang mga wires. Well organized lang ang mga wires didto sa Davao kay gi-straighten gyud nila ug gibugkot pero there are some nga tangling pod gamay.

that road in tagum City is much better than most boulevards here in Mindanao....it is better looking than BXU's Montilla, or Gensan's Pioneer and Acharon, or Davao's McArthur...
the only thouroughfare that is as nice as that of tagum's is Zambo's Cawa-cawa boulevard

The Tagum highway is very much beautiful. Not only that they have planted center islands but also a well manicured side islands with red brick layouts and much wider enough for a car to even perch on it. Much more their side islands are provided with waiting sheds for bus passengers to use during embarking and disembarking and utilize the accessory one lane road (a bike lane?) for their mint green colored tricycles. The highway is a six lane road with center island and two side islands plus two additional lanes making it an eight lane highway. Some will say that a highway is six lane when in fact its only a four lane highway as the six lane occurs only near an intersection as it is a flared highway. Tagum's highway is really the real eight lane highway without flarings.

Ouch! You can say that again,BOB :lol::lol: True, Our North Montilla Bldv.center island lacks the luster as compared to that of Tagum's. But those Indian trees looks okay,actually, for as long as they're trimmed. What's kulang lang I guess, are flowers that will add color (like maybe Bougainvillea?) instead of those "Dying" looking planters nga niwang na kaau :lol:

And ...those vehicles should not be allowed to just park anywhere. Just look at that track...:ohno:...nakadugang lang sa kagubot plus hazard pa.

bitaw, sagbutan ko tan awon sa boulevard murag daghan ra kaayo ang gi butang dili organize.... dapat jud palm tree ang ibutang diha bahala ng batik batik ang i paint sa concrete.... basta organize lang ang mga tanom.. ngano man diay ug buwak nga utot utot basta organize lang.... hehehehe

Naa man siguro programa ang city government nga pwede daw ta maka-rent ug center island sa montilla boulevard wherein kita ang mag maintain sa mga trees or plants, or tig-guna sa mga sagbot. ^^

Naay uban nga imbis naay nakasulat nga NO PARKING, mag parking gyud. Himoon tana ug no parking zone ang montilla boulevard lanes, ang masakpan, multa dayun.

Good for Tagum to have thought of this ELEVATED center islands which IMO is easier to maintain because nobody(in their right mind) would dare step on those planters kay tua man sa taas :lol:

Bitaw, kulang pud ta ug mga waiting sheds for passengers. I hope Butuan will address this need as well.

ang mga naga work ana diha sa center island ang mga student kalimot kog unsay tawag ato oi... naay program ang LGU nga mga students pede mag work during summer para naa allowance.... summer job diay... hehehehe dapat unta basta naa na mga bricks ang kilid sa boulevard dili na unta na pede parkingan kay pila ra ba intawon kusog sa mga bricks dili man na lig-on... nice na tanawon nga ang side sa blvd..... tapos kanang lingin nga suga... hehhee ok ra basta naa.. pero kung pulihan, pulihan na unta nila walay pag langan langan.... kay ngil ad tan awon..

mao bitaw gubot tan awon ang center island is that kana pong kable nga naa sa tunga... pero ok ra man unta lagi basta organize lang unta nila... pulihan nato og palm tree na.... pangib-ton ko ng mga kahoy kahoy diha... hahaha sus kung naka adto mo og dubai good example jud.. deserto pero nice ang mga buwak nga naa sa street oi... sus murag mga plastic nga buwak.. klase klaseng rose na naa sa side sa streen.... hasta sa center island..... mao bitaw nga hapit mo madakpan bisan ning sim-ot ra ko og ni hikap... nag wang wang dayon ang pulis.. hehehee animelssss

choi baya tan-awon ang mga lingin nga suga tapos bricks dayun sa sidewalk, kung molakaw ko dihaa kay feel nimo nga murag Roxas Blvd. sa MNL. patas-on tana nila ang mga suga gikan sa north hangtod sa south montilla blvd. pero nil-ad tan-awon nga naay mga iskwater sa s. montilla blvd. lami man sunugon or gubaon kung naa palang Metro Butuan Development Authority. :ohno:

Ginahimo naman ni nila Franz. Didto sa downtown area daghan na na tow nga sakyanan for not following the No Parking sign. There was once I saw a policeman put a lock or something sa vehicle's tire. they do this after 20 mins had lapsed after they've called the attention of the car's owner using a loud speaker (sakto ba ni nga term? :lol:). To be able to unlock the tire, the owner should pay first the corresponding fee. I just hope tho' that they'll be more strick in our main thoroughfares.

Hoist, ayaw sad Franz.

mao bitaw gubot tan awon ang center island is that kana pong kable nga naa sa tunga... pero ok ra man unta lagi basta organize lang unta nila... pulihan nato og palm tree na.... pangib-ton ko ng mga kahoy kahoy diha... hahaha sus kung naka adto mo og dubai good example jud.. deserto pero nice ang mga buwak nga naa sa street oi... sus murag mga plastic nga buwak.. klase klaseng rose na naa sa side sa streen.... hasta sa center island..... mao bitaw nga hapit mo madakpan bisan ning sim-ot ra ko og ni hikap... nag wang wang dayon ang pulis.. hehehee animelssss

The government should focus on the environment naman pod oi. Kalooy ni mama earth, every afternoon, grabe ang climate change. One thing to support the environment of Butuan is to plant palm trees along the blvd as what you've said reg, kung pwede lang, magbutang pod sila ug mga bulak or mga bushes aron ma-decorate sab ini. Ang mga suga sa center island kay nanga-ponder ug nanga-guba ang uban unya wala pa gipulihan.

bitaw mas nindot tanawon ang side walk kung butangan tanan og bricks... hehehe tan awa tong naa sa lagoon sa langihan nga gi butangan nila og bricks ang side walk.... nice tan awon og looks clean... bravooooo.... ug nalimpyo jud ang lagoon....

oi ngano man? wala ba napansin sa mga nag dumala ana? :bash: or nag paka buta bungol lang sila :bash: yati ra.... :bash:

oiiii i andam na sa ang atong banner diha Franzie... hehehe hapit na naman diya mo close...

Hoist, ayaw sad Franz.

Lagi ate bunns, I'm serious. Kung ako palang ang chairman sa metro butuan development authority, akong ipa-baklas kanang mga balaya or sunugon pero ipa-rellocate sa namo sila sa libreng pabahay sa Butuan Sub-Urban Homes. nil-ad sad baya tan-awon. gusto lang nako i-rellocate sila sa lain lugar first and foremost before clearing the area aron himoon ug hotel dihaa dapit or para sa lain establishments.

Franz pls verify the news that NORMISIST did not pass the recent AACCUP Level III Accreditation Visit last March. If you have time, please see Dr Thelma Conde Montero-Galliguez at the Mathematics Department, College of Arts and Sciences. She is the highest ranked professor of NORMISIST and a holder of a PhDMath degree from Ateneo de Manila University. Dr Galliguez can definitely shed light to this.

Sayang ang universityhood kung tinood ni.

bitaw mas nindot tanawon ang side walk kung butangan tanan og bricks... hehehe tan awa tong naa sa lagoon sa langihan nga gi butangan nila og bricks ang side walk.... nice tan awon og looks clean... bravooooo.... ug nalimpyo jud ang lagoon....

bitaw, unsa kaha naay champagne trees sa center isles with flowers blooming or with bushes, tapos naay tarung nga mga suga? tapos ang naa sa sidewalk kay kadtong palm tree, bench for lovers, lingin nga mga suga and ang flooring is purely made of bricks? Don't forget naa pod diay mga tables and chairs aron makakaon ang mga tao ug kwek-kwek ug barbecue sa sidewalk, kundi naa pod coffeeshops aron malingaw sad sila. Pwede sad butangan ug mini playground kung wala palang ang mga pook iskwater.

Bitaw, i hope they'll implement a very strict regulation on this. akong daddy kay bisag unsaon gahi jud ug ulo, didto gyud siya nag parking sa NO PARKING sign pag simba namo sa Cathedral. Ingon man siya sa amo nga sige lang wala bitaw pulis. :lol: malingaw man pod siya kung tawagon nako siya ug Traffic Violator hehehe katawa ming duha

hala ngano man BXU-GCP? kasayang kung mao na... adto mismo sa CHED pag inquire Franz.. hehehe kay aron naa kay direct info duola lang si Engr. Martinez... or kaha ang director... panumangil lang ug inquire sa scholarship program tapos after that, i open ang issue about the universityhood sa NORMISIST..... tsk tsk tsk sayang... based man gud sa articles murag kulang nalang og declaration.... i hope nga dili tinuod kay sayang kaayo....

independent sa CHED ang AACCUP. mura na siya ug PAASCU ug PACU-COA. The details of the results of the accreditation will be given directly to the school. Hence mas maayo kung sa taga-school ka mangutana.

Ah ok. So the complete name of this hotel in Cebu is Golden Prince Hotel. Our source just told us that the former Carl Patrick's will be named PRINCE Hotel. But who knows, maybe it's gonna be Golden Prince hotel afterall? :lol: But i like the sound of Prince Hotel better..heheh.

I see. Are you not by any chance would also be doing the same plumbing design with Carl Patrick's? :)

Good Morning Butuan!

Greetings from the Queen City of the South!

BTW, I would like to share another highway that is "parang wala sa Pinas". It's a different highway than that of Tagum coz it's situated beside the sea. Impressive gyud ang Tagum considering that they're still a very young city. Expected na man gud ang Cebu to have this kind of project. I hope mabasahan ni sa atong local government to create something like this, it's very possible since Butuan has a handful of existing and U/C highways.

Agusan gold miner sees ‘greater profitability’
Tuesday, July 21, 2009

THE LOCAL unit of Australian Medusa Mining Ltd. has found significant gold reserves in its gold mine in northeastern Mindanao, the miner said in a report to the Australian bourse late last week.

The probable reserve as of June 14 stood at 1.041 million metric tons at 14.9 grams of gold per metric ton equivalent to 500,000 ounces of gold, Philsaga Mining Corp. said after completing its ore reserve estimates.

"This represents an increase of 101% or 251,000 ounces over the probable reserve of 249,000 ounces at 10.8 grams of gold per metric ton announced in August 2008," the miner said.

The reserves will allow the miner to extract 100,000 ounces of gold per year in five years from its 2,539-hectare property in the municipality of Rosario in Agusan del Sur. "A mine life of five years based on reserves is a major achievement for a narrow vein mine," Medusa Managing Director Geoffrey Davis said. "The company anticipates that it will be able to maintain this level of reserves on a yearly basis through continuing conversion of inferred resources to reserves as the mine develops," he said in the disclosure.

Meanwhile, Philsaga President Samuel G. Afdal said "there is going to be longer mining operations and greater profitability for our shareholders."

"There is no problem in the market because of good prices of gold," he said in a phone interview.

Gold is now selling at $940-$950 per ounce, higher than the average of $907 an ounce in the first quarter.

In April, Medusa said it was "on track" toward producing 60,000 ounces of gold per year starting this month.

"We are targeting 100,000-ounce-per-year operation staring in November this year," Mr. Afdal said.

The miner started redeveloping the underground mine in September last year, when the company was producing 40,000 ounces of gold per year.

Medusa and Philsaga produced 12,716 ounces of gold in the first quarter, slightly higher than the 12,158-ounce output in the last quarter of 2008.

In January, Medusa began its one-year supply contract with a Hong Kong metal trader.

"Our exploration projects [in adjacent areas] will continue. We have budgeted around $6 million for exploration this year," Mr. Afdal told BusinessWorld.

Medusa merged with Philsaga in 2006 through a A$12-million payment to shareholders. — Neil Jerome C. Morales

Lagi ate bunns, I'm serious. Kung ako palang ang chairman sa metro butuan development authority, akong ipa-baklas kanang mga balaya or sunugon pero ipa-rellocate sa namo sila sa libreng pabahay sa Butuan Sub-Urban Homes. nil-ad sad baya tan-awon. gusto lang nako i-rellocate sila sa lain lugar first and foremost before clearing the area aron himoon ug hotel dihaa dapit or para sa lain establishments.


I will also do the same thing :) Foremost, aside nga these squatters are an eyesore, these areas can also be a haven for criminals and addicts. Dapat gyud unta, even before maka start ug squat ni sila, sitahon na dayun para di mudaghan. I don't know why our officials have never learned from this problem nga sige nalang balik balik :ohno:

bitaw, unsa kaha naay champagne trees sa center isles with flowers blooming or with bushes, tapos naay tarung nga mga suga? tapos ang naa sa sidewalk kay kadtong palm tree, bench for lovers, lingin nga mga suga and ang flooring is purely made of bricks? Don't forget naa pod diay mga tables and chairs aron makakaon ang mga tao ug kwek-kwek ug barbecue sa sidewalk, kundi naa pod coffeeshops aron malingaw sad sila. Pwede sad butangan ug mini playground kung wala palang ang mga pook iskwater.

For me naman,I would prefer that the whole stretch of Montilla Blvd's center islands should be planted with white and pink bombels (or Bougainvilleas) just like in Singapore. And YES,Franz, palm trees along the sidewalks para cool and shaded ang feeling sa mga pedistrians. Benches are okay but I notice that in Butuan, himuon lang ni nga tambayan or higdaanan sa mga rugby boys and beggars :lol::lol: mas better pa siguro, waiting sheds nalang. Hay, if this will indeed happen, driving along the Boulevard will never be the same again. Wala nay ma high blood coz those flowers will somehow cool down the senses.. fresh na fresh .:lol::lol: sigh..again...wishing...wishing...:bash:

Wala nay ma high blood coz those flowers will somehow cool down the senses.. fresh na fresh .:lol::lol: sigh..again...wishing...wishing...:bash:

speaking of rugby boys, beggars, crazy persons, etc., nganong pasagdan raman ni sila oi, di man sila dakpon sa mga pulis nga sige ra ug laroy laroy sa siyudad nga murag si bob marley ang mga nawong. dakpon tana ni sila sa mga pulis tapos ibutang sa usa ka cell. kung mag wild sila kung dakpon, dapat tirahon sila sa mga pulis ug TRANQUILIZER or TASER Stun Gun so that they will comply. lain baya tan-awon nga sige ra ug suroy suroy nga hugaw na kaayo nga bilasa, dapat ibutang ni sa custody sa mga pulis or sa CSWD aron mahatagan sila ug proper clothing ug bag-o nga panginabuhi.

kaning mga tawo, they are one of the factors nganong hugaw ang atong siyudad

Bitaw, i hope they'll implement a very strict regulation on this. akong daddy kay bisag unsaon gahi jud ug ulo, didto gyud siya nag parking sa NO PARKING sign pag simba namo sa Cathedral. Ingon man siya sa amo nga sige lang wala bitaw pulis. :lol: malingaw man pod siya kung tawagon nako siya ug Traffic Violator hehehe katawa ming duha


It's the same thing with signs that says "Bawal Magtapon ng Basura" or "Bawal umihi Dito" or "No Loading & Unloading" :lol::lol: That's what you call, "Only in the PI".

Tell your Dad not to be overly confident just because there are no policemen around. I've paid the price when I did something I thought "makalusot" kay way pulis ...hehe. Na ticketan na tawn ko twice noh, coz one time, diha GMALL, "GO" ang light, ni left turn ko..:lol::lol:.I thought same ra sa Ochoa nga pwede ka mo left turn pag "GO" ang light.With all innocence, I told the kind looking officer about this, but he wouldn't budge (so unkind na siya after that :lol::lol:). The second time naman, my violation ay "Beating the RED LIGHT".Speeding my way from North Montilla going left, I saw the yellow light na, "yehey, nakaapas pa ko, suya 'guro ang pulis diha sa Crown kay wa nagbantay". But when I neared Dunkin, aruy, gipahunong ko sa pulis :bash: I've learned my lesson after that, Not only it's very HASSLE on your part, you also have to pay the 1,ooo penalty. Mau gani nakahangyo ko ug 500 ra didto gyud sa ilang Boss in Langihan Jeepney Terminal Office :ohno: But hey, at least hindi nagpabaya ang mga police natin ha. Pag violator ka,kahit babae, hindi pinapalampas, abay dapat kang magbayad sa kasalanan mo. BUT comment ko lang, sana they have to be more vigilant sa mga real culprits and not tolerate especially kanang mga jeepney drivers nga badlungonon gyud.

Great profit indeed for Agusan del Sur! Agusan del Sur is rich in natural resources. Mining could be a good income generating trade that is abound in Agusan del Sur like the gold mining in Rosario and Bunawan. Marble mining is also existing in Trento. However, like what I learned from a DOST seminar here in Cebu wherein a speaker said "What's boom for the farmers it might be a boon for fishermen". During my last visit there in Agusan last May, fishermen of Magallanes and Lumbocan were complaining of their dwindling catch. They even encountered a case where fishes were gasping for breath. For the past years they did not have a catch of the famous "uyap". Hipon, a fish bigger than uyap with vertical black stripes is nowhere to find. Kinsa ilang gibasol? Its the mining operation sa upper Agusan.

Good Morning BXU...

Guys, our dearly friend (Filino) happened to travelled back and fort in BXU lately. Is Cabadbaran implemented an ordinance na mag stop by ang busses sa ilang terminal with 45 minutes? kay nag hulat hulat intawon ang mokloy didto kung unsa orasa mo larga ang bus going to BXU :bash: unsa man na patakaran jud na nila or buot buot lang sila.... kay ti-aw mo nang 45 minutes... lupig pay BXU... kinsa may taga Cabadbaran diri nga residents, palihog kog confirm sa inyong mga leader diha... hehehe nag yaw yaw ang mokloy nang luspad intawon... hahaha kinsa may dili mag yaw yaw ba bisan ako naman... kabalo ko kung unsa feelings ni filino ato nga time murag kalibangon nga murag kaihion... hehehehe

Ipatang tang ang welcome arc diha nga City of Cabadbaran pulihan og " Welcome Brgy Cabadbaran"

this agusan gold mine is really a big help to boost their economy...

i think it's one of the reasons why ang Agusan del Sur wala maapil sa one of the poorest province in PI.

A development can be a great opportunity in ways that it can provide jobs. But more often than not, it can also be environmentally damaging like that of a Mining operation. But what can we do, that's just it.and the harsh reality, naa gyuy ma sacrifice.

I hope maayo ug organize unta ang pag put up diha sa Mang Inasal aron dili masayang ang location. So natapan na jud ang jabee..... hehehe pero first day im sure puno na sya... not sure of the following days....

frankly speaking mga taga butuan, I dont see any reason na pilahan ang mang inasal. it is nothing hmmmm d nalang ko sulti. comparing it to other Butuan Chicken BBQ, layo ra siya kaayo sa weegles ug mas lami ra ang chicken ati-atihan. try it na lang para mo makato-o.

I can partially see the interiors reg, naa nay CR, naa nay murag table nga para gani sa counter, naa nay flooring, naa nay pintal nga green sa mga walls sa interiors. wala pa nila gitrabaho ang exteriors reg, as in wala sila nagbutang ug mga glass, mga entrance or exit. I can only see that they're working on the interiors pa.

franz, just like in surigao 4th flr taman ang mang inasal pero 3rd flr lang taman ang gigamit kay office man ang last flr, usually ana dili aircon ang first flr. open ra jud na as in wide kaayo nga open. sa surigao 2nd ug 3rd flr lang ang aircon ug dili aircon ang first flr. kung wala kay nakita na glass, it's because wala jud na siyay glass like in surigao kay open ra na siya. dont know lang kung unsay style sa butuan pero sa ako nakita murag wala na siyay 2nd flr kay imposible pud na ga pintal na sila sa ground flr as in almost done na ncluding the tables and etc. pero wala pa tiwasa ang 2nd flr.

Wow,you mean ang Mang Inasal put up their own building in Surigao? Ang BXU Mang Inasal is just renting and you're right, just by looking at the construction,murag wala siya'y 2nd floor. Pero kalain sab tanawon no nga pag mahuman na ang Mang Insal, naay mga kable mag protrude sa ibabaw?

Bitaw, I've read some feedbacks about their chicken nga wa daw lami. Nah, wa pay aircon, wa pay lami, unsaon nalang :lol::lol: IMO mas better pa ang ANDOKS.

No, Franz, Mang Inasal is just renting that building from the Villareal's who also owns MJ Santos Hosp. They have no plan of selling that property.

ok. mao ba? how come they're the ones constructing the building?

For future expansion sa ilang hospital na msbunny mao nga dili nila ibaligya ang property....

Unsa man nang likod sa MJ Santos? is that their MJ Santos Medical School?

ok. mao ba? how come they're the ones constructing the building?

Correct me if I'm wrong, pero dili siguro ang Mang Inasal ang nag construct sa building kay mag rent ra man sila. Mang Inasal lang siguro ang mag design sa Facade and the interior's concept. Just like Jollibee sa Otis and Greenwich sa Mancao Square.

For future expansion sa ilang hospital na msbunny mao nga dili nila ibaligya ang property....

Mao gyud na siya nga location ang gusto sa Mac Donald's sa una pa gyud, But then ang rental ay abot hangang langit sa kamahal.. P400.00 thousand a month for the whole area na...grabeh ra daw kamahal. MacDonald's opted instead for the GMALL site which is a much better location.

If that's the case, then goodluck nalang to Mang Inasal :lol: I just hope that if it survived in Surigao, it'll be the same thing in BXU.


Anyway, here's a pix of ANDOK's in Boracay. Just look at the choices of their menu, di ba pagka yummy gyud? See, it's not even that expensive.
I also noticed that of all the kan-anan didto, Andok's ang pinaka daghan tao. Mang Inasal is just acrooss, pero gamay ra tawn ang customers.

frankly speaking mga taga butuan, I dont see any reason na pilahan ang mang inasal. it is nothing hmmmm d nalang ko sulti. comparing it to other Butuan Chicken BBQ, layo ra siya kaayo sa weegles ug mas lami ra ang chicken ati-atihan. try it na lang para mo makato-o.

Mao ba? Lami man lagi sa Cagayan, sa may SM. Basin wala nila ma maintain ang quality sa Surigao?

Anyway, speaking of bbq's, ang pinakalami ako natilawan sa Butuan kana diha Pina's bbq diha doul sa Butuan City Central Elementary School sa may AD Curato st.

Butuan celebrates 31st NDPR week

by Lovely Laudette Gamba

Butuan City (July 21) -- Parents' faces light up as their children with disabilities shows off their talents during the opening salvo of the 31st National Disability Prevention and Rehabilitation (NDPR) Week celebration at the Rizal Park, recently.

In that rare moment the city witnesses the untiring hand of parents and teachers as they guide their special children in the day's activity. It shows the community how far can parents' love, nurturing and community involvement could go in helping children with disabilities.

The activity also highlights the capabilities of an empowered person with disability (PWD). It shows how much they can achieve and contribute to the community. The day's activity proves that with community involvement and proper implementation of programs, the PWDs are assets and contributors to the country's development.

Mr. Ritchie Ravelo, President of the differently-abled association of Butuan despite his disabilities has achieved milestones in his life. He has inspired PWDs like him and has steered his organization to the right path. In his closing remarks during the opening ceremony, he implores the local government units and all enforcing agencies of the government to implement the laws pertaining to PWD's.

Another PWD, Jonathan Nonan proved that disability is not a hindrance in becoming a good father. Jonathan has six children and according to his wife a very good provider of the family.

This year's theme, "Tungo sa Katuparan ng Karapatan ng PWD's" stresses the importance of enforcing the laws for PWD's such as the accessibility law.

To show the government's support to the PWDs, Vice Mayor Dino Claudio Sanchez together with representatives from the different regional line agencies distributed 14 crutches and two wheelchairs during the opening ceremony. The crutches were donated by the Faith Baptist Church and by Vice Mayor Sanchez and the wheelchairs by the Seventh Day Adventists Church. (PIA-Caraga)

Butuan to commemorate IHL day and 60th anniversary of Geneva convention

by Lovely Laudette Gamba

Butuan City (July 21) -- The city is set to commemorate the International Humanitarian Law (IHL) Day and the observance of 60th Anniversary of the 1949 Geneva Convention on August 12.

Several activities were lined-up by the inter-agency committee to celebrate the occasion. The committee is headed by the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA).

IHL is a set of rules which place restrictions on the use of weapons and methods of warfare. It aims to protect human dignity and to limit suffering during times of war.

IHL prohibits or limits the use of weapons during war. It requires parties to a conflict to distinguish between combatants and civilians; to refrain from attacking civilians; to care for the wounded and sick; to protect medical personnel; and to ensure that the dignity of prisoners of war and civilian internees is preserved by allowing visits by ICRC delegates.

The ICRC serves as the "guardian" of IHL, basing its work on the four Geneva Conventions of 1949 and their two Additional Protocols of 1977. These instruments of IHL give the ICRC the right to carry out activities such as bringing relief to wounded, sick or shipwrecked military personnel, visiting prisoners of war, restoring contact between members of families separated by conflict, aiding civilians and ensuring that those protected by humanitarian law are treated accordingly.

IHL concerns two situations; international armed conflicts, which involve at least two countries and armed conflict that take place in one country such as those between a government and rebel forces.

IHL applies to all parties to a conflict regardless of who started it.

IHL protects those who are not, or no longer, participating in hostilities, such as civilians, medical and religious military personnel, wounded, shipwrecked and sick combatants, and prisoners of war.

Recognizing their specific needs, IHL grants women and children additional protection.

The ICRC is present in over 60 countries. Its network of offices is adjusted regularly to keep step with developments in armed conflicts and other situations of violence. (PIA-Caraga)

Illegal settlers around Camp Bancasi given till August 31 to vacate homes

by Lovely Laudette D. Gamba

Butuan City (July 21) -- Illegal settlers at the Military Reservation area in Bancasi, this city is given until August 31, to vacate their homes. This is revealed by Lt. Col. Efrain Oropel, Camp Commander of the Camp Bancasi Military Reservation during a press conference recently.

The eviction is prompted by plans of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) to pursue development in the military reservations throughout the country.

"The eviction is part of the developmental plan of the AFP, the plan could not be pursued without evicting the illegal settlers surrounding the military reservation. This is true to all military reservations throughout the country not just in Bancasi," says Cpt. Aldrich Uayan of the 4th Infantry Division.

The eviction is covered by AFP Special Order No. 26 dated December 16, 2006. The said order aims to clear military reservations throughout the country of all illegal settlers.

The military reservation in Bancasi was granted to the Philippine Army (PA) through Presidential Proclamation No. 113 dated November 23, 2009.

The eviction of illegal settlers around Camp Bancasi is supposed to be done last January, 2009. For humanitarian reasons the eviction was postponed till May 31, but residents of the area through a Barangay Order asked for another 3-month extension, which the AFP concede.

"As per order from the top, residents surrounding the Camp Bancasi are ordered to vacate the area. The order is supposed to be effective last January 2009 but because of humanitarian considerations, I personally extended the eviction till May 2009. Now, thru a Barangay Order the residents asked for a three months extension till August 31," explains Col. Oropel.

The military is confident that there will be no resistance during the eviction on August 31.

"I don't think there will be resistance during the eviction, since they (the illegal settlers) has been given ample time. In fact, four concrete houses in the area has voluntary demolished their homes," says Col. Oropel.

Major Eduardo Abaño of the 4th Infantry Battalion added that, "If they go against the military, they can be charged with direct and indirect assault. And I don't think, the active military service men in the area will object in anyway because it is a direct order from the headquarters."

To help relocate illegal settlers in the area the AFP tapped the local government unit of Butuan. There is already a relocation program for the illegal settlers but fund for the purchased of the lot is still unavailable. There are also relocation areas in Butuan where those who will be relocated can apply.

Illegal settlers in the military reservation started through permission by Camp Commanders for military personnel to build houses in the area considering that their job is semi-permanent. But they were not required to build concrete houses, only houses made up of indigenous materials.

Most of the settlers are civilians and not connected to the military, children of former military officers. There are also some active military personnel and retirees. (PIA-Caraga)
