Cagayan fire death toll rises
to 16; Aquino’s mad

BY RAYMOND AFRICA
INTERIOR Secretary Jesse Robredo yesterday ordered the administrative relief of Chief Insp. Neil Caranguian, fire marshal of Tuguegarao City, in connection with the fire that hit a pension house Sunday.
The number of fatalities rose to 16 yesterday, after a Nursing graduate succumbed to asthma complications while confined in a hospital in the city.
The Bureau of Fire Protection National Headquarters in Quezon City could not immediately give the identity of the 16th fatality in the fire that gutted the Bed and Breakfast Pension House where Nursing graduates who were to take the board exams scheduled Sunday and Monday had been billeted.
The BFP named nine Nursing graduates among the fatalities --Richard Gonzales, Francis Caranabas, Marlon Viernes, Henderson Leodovico, Jefferson Lopez, Ryan James Malaki, Romualdo Respicio, Wilmer Galapia, Jerome Saet, all graduates of the University of La Sallette in Santiago City, Isabela.
The two other fatalities, Cecilia and Norman, are from the Fondevilla family that owns the pension house.
President Aquino said he ordered Robredo to coordinate with Justice Secretary Leila de Lima to ensure that charges are filed soon against those who failed to do their jobs.
"Aaminin ko sa inyo sobrang pikon ko nang nalaman ko kahapon iyan. Sa initial report, walang fire inspection, walang mayor’s permit. Malapit sa city hall ang building. Meron silang dapat gawin na hindi na dapat nangyari ito. Pagka-describe sa akin, sa second floor maraming combustible materials na nagtulak sa mga tao na umakyat sa mga palapag, lalong na-trap. Paano nakalusot lahat ito?" Aquino said.
"Supposed to be naghigpit na. Supposed to be tuloy-tuloy ang inspection ng agencies. Tinuturo na naman ang electrical short circuit. Nasaan ang nag-approve ng electrical plan?...Bottomline, may mga hindi gumawa ng dapat gawin na dapat na-prevent ang tragedy," he said.
Senior Supt. Sergio Soriano, BFP regional director in the Cagayan Valley, said he created Task Force Sunshine composed of local engineers and fire inspectors to determine liability for the fire and the deaths of the 16 persons.
Soriano said the fire was caused by electrical overload from the Sunshine Auto and Bike Supply at the ground floor of the five-story building, where flammable items such as gasoline were kept.
"May gasolina na naka-imbak sa loob ng auto supply galing sa generator, doon kasi sila nagkukumpuni ng mga motor," he said.
Soriano said they will look into the liability of the Fondevilla family for violations of the fire safety code.
He said the pension house has no fire safety certificate for this year. "Hindi dumaan sa fire marshal for inspection. We also found out na naka-hold pala ang mayor’s permit nila," Soriano said.
Robredo said the Bureau of Fire Protection national headquarters in Quezon City will also investigate the fire incident.
He named Supt. Jesus Fernandez, Cagayan provincial fire marshal, as acting fire marshal for Tuguegarao City in place of Caranguian.
BFP director Chief Supt. Rolando Bandilla Jr. said Caranguian was relieved from duty to prevent him from influencing the investigation. -- With Jocelyn Montemayor

Yan pa ang isang dahilan bakit nauubos ang pera ng gobyerno. Kung lahat sana ay sinusunod at nasa tamang pamamaraan ang pagpapatupad sa mga batas natin maiiwasan sana ang mga ganitong trahedya at hindi na gagastos pa ang gobyerno para sa mga imbestigasyon. Gaya ng nasabi ko dagdag gastos na naman ito. Hindi pa nagsisimula yung reinvestigation ng Vizconde massacre eto na naman tayo. Kelan kaya tayo matututo. Puro kahihiyan itong gobyerno natin kaya katawa-tawa tayo sa mata ng mga taga-ibang bansa.:ohno:Nakakatakot dahil sigurado na naman na may mga palulusutin sila dito.:ohno:

Sorry guys pero I must say walang kwenta ang fire fighters dyan...!

The fact na super lapit ng fire station; just 20 meters away. It took them more than an hour to respond at five hours para apulahin ang apoy sa area. - very disappointing!

Very sad. Sana maginvest ang city govt ng Tuguegarao sa aspetong yan. First class city pa naman na to at Capital city pa!^^

the whole people of cagayan are very disappointed...
this is the truth...
to all the forumers.

masasabi kong on that time christmas party nila. so sa investigation lumalabas na nagsiuwian ang iba.at ang mga officials nila ay nasa claveria, aparri.therefor isa lang ang fire truck na nag responde. kulang sa tao.lasing na nagresponde.

lumalabas na kapabayaan ang nangyari.at akoy nalulngkot dahil sa nangyari.
at tama lang na tanggalin lahat sila ng city government.

Guys.. I have not seen naman an attack against Tuguegarao City. Sana wag nating isipin na yung comment ko (halimbawa) o ni project JGR ay patama or with intent to destroy Tuguegarao City Govt. May basis naman po but not to make it personal...

I personally, based on how I understand governance, siguradong may pagkukulang ang Tuguegarao city Govt sa pangyayari. Una. Bakit sila nakapagoperate? - Ibig sabihin, nagkulang sa police power ang city govt. Pangalawa, kaninong supervision ang fire dept?. Pangatlo, bakit hindi ginagawa or mukhang hindi ginawa ang building inspections at iba pang ministirial act ng city govt.

Ito lang, pero nothing personal.

Tuguegaro firefighters reeked of liquor: witnesses

TUGUEGARAO, Philippines – Firefighters who responded to the blaze that struck a pension house in Tuguegarao on Sunday were slow, ill-equipped, and reeked of liquor, witnesses said.

Siblings Francis and Jesus Samaniego said they saw the firefighters at the height of the blaze that killed 16 people.

“’Yong iba walang helmet, walang gloves. Parang pinaghati-hatian ang uniform. Siguro ‘yong [pang 10 uniform] ginamit ng 15 na tao,” Francis said.

Another witness who tried to help the victims said they clearly heard the screams of those inside the burning building.

They were able to save several people but they could not forget those who perished.

“Initsa lang iyan, siguro mga 7 times or 6 times bago nasalo noong mga nasa bintana. Sinira nila 'yan...tapos tinanggal nila 'yong naka-welding na grills,” said Jesus, pointing to a rope they used to help some of the victims.

ABS-CBN News found out that 69 personnel of the Tuguegarao fire fighting office have to share 5 boots, 5 trousers, 5 firecoats, one flashlight, and a broken axe when responding to emergencies.

Tuguegarao fire chief Jesus Fernandez admitted that they lack equipment but he denied that his men were drunk when they responded to the fire.

“Talagang complete ang mga apparatus ng mga counterpart natin. I-compare natin ang BFP sa mga counterpart natin ay malayo ang agwat ng modern equipment nila,” he said.

Arson?

A fact-finding team tasked to investigate the cause of the tragedy, meanwhile, started its work Tuesday.

The team is looking at the possibility that the fire was deliberately caused.

The team immediately noticed that the fire exits of Bed and Breakfast pension house were not correctly placed.

The fire inside the building was intense because of the tires and oil at a motorcycle parts store in the building’s ground floor, according to investigators.

Fiscal Ronnel Nicolas, Department of Justice official in Tuguegarao, said they will also interview witnesses.

Eight fire inspectors in the city have already been sacked because of the tragedy.

They are Senior Fire Officer (SFO) 4 Paulino Camacam, SFO3 Antonio Dumlao Jr., SFO2 Daniel Abana, SFO2 Fructoso Tumbali, SFO2 Rey Mariano Lim, SFO1 Gary Guillen, FO3 Jesus Arturo Labadia, and non-uniformed personnel Dennis Cababa.

The pension house is located less than a kilometer from the city’s fire station.

Fernandez said his office will look into the officers’ possible liability.

Interior and Local Governments Secretary Jesse Robredo, meanwhile, said the pension house should not have been allowed to operate without proper documents.

[B]“Dapat hindi po nag-ooperate ang negosyo kapag walang Mayor's Permit at ang requirement po ng Mayor's Permit, ‘yong Fire Safety Inspection Certificate,” he said. – Reports from Gretchen Malalad, ABS-CBN News; Julius Camba, ABS-CBN News Cagayan; ANC

Panel starts investigating Tuguegarao fire

BY RUBEN D. MANAHAN 4TH REPORTER AND FRANCIS C. HIDALGO JR. CORRESPONDENT

THE joint investigating panel on the recent Tuguegarao City fire that killed 16 people at a downtown bed and breakfast pension house has started its inspection of the site on Tuesday. The probe body—comprising members of the Department of Justice, the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) and the Philippine National Police—inspected the entire building.

According to the panel, the north side of the building’s structure took the worst beating, particularly in the fourth and fifth floors were the victims were found.

The investigators said that they are set to invite survivors to testify in their probe.

As the investigation started, eight fire inspectors were also relieved after the Tuguegarao City’s fire marshall—Chief Insp. Neil Caranguinan was relieved on Monday.

Based on reports, the blaze was only put under control at about 6 a.m. of Sunday, resulting to the five-story hotel’s structure almost in total ruins, especially its ground floor, which was being utilized as commercial stalls where highly flammable materials were being sold.

Meanwhile, Rep. Juan “Jack” Ponce Enrile Jr. of the First District of Cagayan, son of Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile, said that they are now drafting a resolution calling for a House inquiry over Sunday’s fire.

Enrile said that there must be somebody who is liable of the incident. The BFP, he said, has also a lot of explaining to do in the wake of reports that they failed to arrive on time at the incident site, as well as failure to properly utilize firefighting equipment and related gadgets such as fire hydrants, which are only located nearby.

“We should have avoided unnecessary loss of lives if the concerned agencies only to their homework. This is a wake up call not only for Cagayan but throughout the country. We have to do something concrete to prevent the occurrence of another similar tragedy,” he said.

Enrile also lauded President Benigno Aquino 3rd calling for an investigation in the recent Tuguegarao City fire.

He also expressed heartfelt sympathy to the families of the victims with the hope that the incident would not be repeated. “My heart goes out to the families of the 14 victims and those injured by the fire. I believe that no one should lose their loved ones especially when the holiday season is just around the corner,” Enrile said.

He said the tragedy should spur Cagayan officials, as well as the BFP to immediately conduct a province-wide inspection of establishment to determine their compliance with the Fire and Safety Code.

Enrile said he also lauded the decision of Interior and Local Government Secretary Jessie Robredo, to relieve Caranguinan, to pave the way for an objective investigation.

“While it is premature at this moment to make any conclusion as to anybody’s culpability, the decision to relieve Caranguinan is a step in the right direction,” the veteran lawmaker added.

Para sa akin ito ang may pananagutan sa trahedyang yan:

Una ang may ari ng Pension Haus.

ULS Admin, kulang sa coordination, tama ung nanay na bakit daw pinag hiwalay ang boys sa girls. May pananagutan sila dun kc dapat naghanap cla ng mas comfortable at safe na tutuluyan ng mga studyante.

Hehehe sinisisi nyo ang mga bumbero, city government, may-ari ng hotel pero yung pinagmulan ng sunog na nagbebenta ng motorcycle parts hindi nyo pinapansin. Yung pinagsimulan ng sunog ang dapat unang managot, siya ang dapat nakakulong ngayon.

iisa lang po ang may ari nung nagbebenta ng motor cycle parts at pension haus...pero tama ka dapat siya ang unang nkakulong ngaun.

Tuguegarao City fire marshal relieved

Tuguegarao City, -- The Fire Director of the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) has issued relieve order to the City Fire Marshal of Tugeugarao following the horrifying "Bed and Breakfast Hotel" fire incident last Sunday.
Fire Director Rolando M. Bandilla Jr, Chief-BFP, relieved City Fire Marshal Chief Inspector Neil Z. Caranguian by virtue of Bureau Order number REA-2010-210.
Bandilla further ordered Supt. Jesus P. Fernandez as acting city fire marshal of the Tuguegarao City Fire Station, in concurrent capacity as Provincial Fire Marshal of BFP Cagayan province.
Though the specific reasons of the relieved of Caranguian is not specified in the order, authorities from BFP Regional Office stated that the very reason is because of the negligence of the city fire department to act immediately and efficiently during the Bed and Breakfast Hotel fire incident, which took more than 4 hours before neutralizing the fire, and causing 16 death toll and 11 injured individuals.
On the observations of the witnesses, the city department is located just few steps from the fire scene but failed to deliver the expected service immediately because their fire truck was empty. Fire trucks from neighboring municipalities were even the first to rescue but failed to attain the "zero death" casualty in the incident.
Of the 16 dead casualties, 11 were all young male individuals who are about to take nursing licensure examinations, scheduled on Monday here, and the other 5 include members of the family of the owner and their house helper.
Aside from the investigation being conducted by BFP officials and city council, Justice Secretary Laila de Lima ordered Department of Justice and Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) to conduct parallel investigation on the said disaster.

You can't just blame ULS, kung alam nyo lang tunay na sitwasyon pagboard exams, nagkakaubusan po ng mga hotels, kaya kahit pati yung mga pipitsugin na hotel napupuno.

Para sa akin ito ang may pananagutan sa trahedyang yan:

Una ang may ari ng Pension Haus.

ULS Admin, kulang sa coordination, tama ung nanay na bakit daw pinag hiwalay ang boys sa girls. May pananagutan sila dun kc dapat naghanap cla ng mas comfortable at safe na tutuluyan ng mga studyante.

City BFP tsaka Regional BFP: mali cla na City BFP lang ang sisihin at sibakin sa pwesto dapat pati ung nasa Regional Office, kc under the supervision nila ang City BFP eh anong gnawa nila? WALA!!! ung sinasabing walang tubig na mga Fire Trucks sa City BFP eh kasama dun ung mga Fire Trucks ng Regional...tsaka bakit hindi rin nakaresponde ang Regional BFP eh and2 lang din sa 2gue ang Opisina nila? isang malaking SAMPAL sa inyo yan mga HINAYUPAK kau.

Radio Maria expands Northern Luzon operations

TARLAC City, Jan. 1, 2011—After eight years of airing Church-based programs in Tarlac and Nueva Ecija provinces, Radio Maria-Philippines has expanded its coverage to Cagayan and Isabela provinces.

The radio station has constructed repeater stations in Tuguegarao City (101.5 FM) and 102.1 FM in Santiago City. These two frequencies are part of the four frequencies approved by the National Telecommunications Commission since 2007.

The 101.5 FM Tuguegarao City was inaugurated on June 19, 2010 while 102.1 FM Santiago City is up for operations today. It could have been inaugurated earlier had it not been for the recent typhoons.

With the support of the Archdiocese of Tuguegarao under Archbishop Diosadado Talamayan and the Diocese of Ilagan under Bishop Joseph Nacua, OFM Cap., Radio Maria-Philippines continues to broadcast Church-based programs in their respective areas.

The Radio Maria-Philippines is part of the World Family of Radio Maria, an international radio network. It is a non-profit, non-commercial radio station. The radio station broadcasts religious programs and relies on volunteer work. Fr. Jay M. Policarpio is the current program director. (Raymund Acuna)

Uuuhhh! Nope. You mean 2 primary airports Cagayan hehe. NCIA is in Lallo, about 70 kms. north of Tugue. And for those who didn't know, there were also PAL flights to Aparri before the mid 80's but the airport has since been reduced to a municipal airport due to lack of funds for upgrading. It just recently reopened but only for regional flights for small aircrafts.

freightrunner

January 3rd, 2011, 02:08 PM

For a short period before that, domestic flights to Northern Cagayan were in Ballesteros which is across the river from Aparri. So up until the mid-80's there has always been 2 major airports in Cagayan, both having PAL services, a distinction only a few provinces enjoyed. Here's the original PAL domestic schedule during their inaugural flight in 1947.

Region 2 to co-host 20th National Trade Fair

TUGUEGARAO CITY, Jan. 4 (pia) - The Department of Trade and Industry Region 2 has announced that Cagayan Valley will be hosting the 20th National Trade Fair along with the Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions (CITEM) on March 17-20, 2011.

The trade fair, which will be held at the SMX Convention Center, will showcase products of small enterprises from the provinces such as holiday decorations, jewelry, home decor, toys, and other crafts.

As partner-host, the region will launch its festival of festivals with the theme “Pappabalo” featuring the Scarecrow Festival.

The five provinces (Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Nueva Vizcaya, and Quirino) shall come up with their own unique scarecrow icon that is best suited to represent Cagayan Valley’s festival of festivals- the Scarecrow Festival.

Robert Pancha of DTI said each province will conduct a scarecrow making competition and it is open to all bona fide residents of Region 2, 12 years old and above.

Pancha explained that two entries shall be considered provincial winners and these entries will have a chance to compete for the title of Grand Scarecrow for 2011.

The criteria for evaluation and selection are: Idea/Concept-30 percent, Innovativeness and Creativity-30 percent, Eco-Friendliness-25 percent, and Visual Appeal-15 percent.

There shall be one Grand Scarecrow winner and 10 provincial winners who will receive a cash prize amounting to P10,000 and P5,000 and certificates respectively.

The regional winning scarecrow will be reproduced into a giant-model. The reproduction costs will be shouldered by the provincial government of the winning entry.

The giant-scale Grand Scarecrow and all provincial winners will be showcased during the 2011 National Trade Fair.

Those interested may request forms through polixabad@yahoo.com. They may also visit the DTI regional office at the Regional Government Center, Carig, Tuguegarao City or at the DTI provincial offices for more details about the contest.

The Scarecrow Making Contest will run from December 20, 2010 to February 15, 2011. (TCBicarme/PIA 2)

the total income of tuguegarao for 2010: 918Millon.
lets wait for the COA.

2008 pa lang latest sa COA....matagal pa siguro bago lumabas ang 2010 audit report ng tugue

Cagayan International Convention Center matagal ng proposed ng Provincial Gov pero walang budget non 2010 pero im sure itutuloy din ito.
tuguegarao to build up regional sports complex and International Convention Center also. in cooperatio of Regional Devt Council.

kaya nag uusap muna silang 3. para sa mega project na ito.hindi biro ang project na to aabutin ng higit 3 billion piso.

i wonder ano bang malaking event ang ihohost nito kung meron man....tuwing maghohost lang kasi ng malalakng events karaniwang itinatayo ang mga convention center eh

Before kc dapat ung 3rd district ang magiging composition ng Metropolitan Tuguegarao (Metro PIESTTA) Peñablanca, Iguig, Enrile, Solana, Tuao, Tuguegarao City at Amulung

dapat maabot muna ng tuguegarao ang 200k population tapos ihain ng congressman ang pagiging HUC nito.
at guma na silang 3 congressman ng cagayan ng batas para maging 4 na distrito na ito.

para sakin i doubt sa METRO PIESTTA.
masyadong malayo.
maybe
Go for Metro Tuguegarao.
IGUIG,SOLANA,Penablanca and tuguegarao city.

anong economic Growth ng Philippines ngayon year.

then top 10 biggest economy in asia.
tapos no.1 outsourcing destination in the world.

Saan galing itong mga data na to? Yung top 4 fastest growing economy in the world, kung totoo yan bakit hindi natin naramdaman hehe. Kahit yung top 10 biggest economy in Asia highly doubtful. At yung no.1 outsourcing destination India pa rin sa alam ko but we are aiming to be the number one this year. I can come up with more than ten countries in Asia whose economies are way way bigger that the Philippines. Let's see, not necessarily in order:
1. China
2. Japan
3. S. Korea
4. India
5. Saudi Arabia

SP Cagayan approves P1.2-B provincial annual budget

TUGUEGARAO CITY, Jan. 5 (PIA) -- The Cagayan Provincial Board has finally approved the annual investment plan and 2011 provincial budget amounting to P1.2 billion after a long deliberation and talks between the legislative and executive bodies.

Vice Governor Leonides Fausto has called for a special session last December 30 for the purpose of discussing the two items.

Before the session, the Board members sat with the executive body headed by Gov. Alvaro Antonio to tackle some suggestions for the systematic implementation of the plan to further improve the management of the province.

Board Member Mila Lauigan said one of those which need to be improved is the maintenance and operation of every office in the provincial capitol.

Lauigan has proposed for a single application for telephone and internet for the whole provincial capitol instead of every office in order to reduce bills.

Aside from this, BM Lauigan has also pushed for a more systematic process of giving financial assistance to those who are asking for it. “Those who ask for assistance usually approach the officials one by one due to the absence of a centralized policy,” Lauigan pointed out.

The lady board member said most of suggestions were favorably answered by the governor. (TCBicarme/PIA 2)

The campaign period will start on February 26 and it will end on March 10, 2011. The candidates are required to use lawful election propaganda.

During the campaign period, the following acts are no longer allowed: making any donation or gift in cash or in kind, appointing or using special policemen, special/confidential agents or the like, construction or maintenance of provincial, city, municipal or barangay-funded roads and bridges, among others.

The second district of Cagayan comprises the municipalities of Abulog, Allacapan, Ballesteros, Calayan, Claveria, Lasam, Pamplona, Piat, Rizal, Sanchez Mira, Sta. Praxedes and Sto. Nino.

2. Dapat may maganda sana naman tayong WELCOME ARCH sa may bungad ng Buntun bridge at sa may boundary sa carig.

3. Yung mga bagong daan nagayon na ginawa sa riverside,cataggaman, dapat nakaplano na ng four lanes, para by the time metropolitan na tayo, ok ok naman..at yung h-way sa regional center dapat may island/landscape yun sa gitna..

saan ka naman nakakita ng SM Hypermarket na may SM Department Store sa loob. Paki qualify po yung statement kasi hindi yun SM Department store. :)

Yung SM Supermarket sa SM Tarlac meron ding utensils sa loob, meron ding Appliance Section, meron din mga small furnitures, meron mga RTW... at marami ring mga tenants. :) Halos parehas lang din ng Savemore sa Angeles at nung Hypermarket sa Mabalacat. :)

Invest at CEZA

http://www.investphilippines.gov.ph/images/logo.png

http://www.investphilippines.gov.ph/images/logo/ceza.png

Cagayan Economic Zone Authority (www.ceza.gov.ph)

The Cagayan Economic Zone Authority (CEZA) is a government owned and controlled corporation created by virtue of Republic Act 7922, otherwise known as the "Cagayan Special Economic Zone Act of 1995".

The Cagayan Special Economic Zone and Free Port (Cagayan Freeport) is located at the country's northeastern tip, a strategic location for dynamic enterprise development. The location is at the crossroads of international shipping lanes and is thereby open to a number of lucrative markets which include Japan, China, US West Coast, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The CSEZFP encompasses the entire municipality of Sta. Ana in Cagayan Province as well as Fuga, Barit and Mabbag islands in the municipality of Aparri. These areas are characterized by its untapped natural and economic resources. The Zone, 54,118.95 hectares large, is poised to become the one of the country's most important agro-industrial, commercial, tourism, recreational and transshipment hub.

Investment Priority Areas

Gaming Activities
By virtue of the powers and functions of CEZA stated under RA 7922, CEZA can operate on its own, either directly or through a subsidiary entity, or license to others, tourism-related activities, including games, amusements, recreational and sports facilities such as horse racing, amusements, gambling casinos, golf courses and others. This particular power of CEZA is independent from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) for as long as the gaming activity is held within the Cagayan Freeport.

Tourism and Resort Facilities/Services
CEZA offers a friendly investment environment coupled with the natural tourist attractions surrounding the Cagayan Freeport. Thus, accommodation facilities and tourism activities must be developed to address the influx of tourists and prospective investors in the coming years.

Business Process Outsourcing
The availability of advanced telecommunication facilities makes the Cagayan Freeport a viable site to operate various business process outsourcing activities.

Processing and exportation of sand, gravel, armored rocks and limestone (Mining and Quarrying)
The Cagayan Region is rich not only in agriculture and marine resources, but with mineral resources as well. Many sites have been identified to be abundant in metallic and non-metallic reserves.

Marine Products Processing
The area of the Cagayan Freeport is recognized the Game Fishing Capital of the Philippines with the surrounding waters comprising of the South China Sea and Pacific Ocean. Hence, propagation of marine products is sure to flourish in the area.

Real Estate Development
A world class economic zone is not complete without a fully developed Industrial Park Complex to compliment the operations of the seaport.

Port Operations
The existing Port of Irene in the Cagayan Freeport needs to be upgraded and developed further to be a viable shipping and transshipment hub in Asia. Development and operation of the port is currently being offered to major port operators.

Power Generation and Distribution
A major component of development is the availability of stable, reliable and affordable power that would suffice the requirement of the Cagayan Freeport. Renewable power sources are mainly being considered. CEZA, however, is still open to the option of operating traditional power generating facilities.

Agro-industry
The Cagayan Region, being an agricultural basket of the Philippines, can provide the produce and raw materials relative to agro-industrial products.

Water Supply and Treatment Facility
Solid Waste Management Facility

Incentives

4-6 years income tax holiday
Special Tax Rate of 5% of gross income in lieu of all local and national taxes

Rare freshwater eels poised to become high value export
BY PAUL ICAMINA
IT is so rare and expensive, the price of one tiny eel hit $3 this year.

That’s nearly P150 per each and every elver, or young eels highly valued for stocking commercial farms in Asia.

The price was "the highest in history" as the supply was unable to meet the demand during a "poor catch year," said Dr. Wann-Nian Tzeng, head of National Taiwan University’s Institute of Fisheries Science.

He was among the Taiwanese scientists invited to an international symposium at the the Central Luzon State University (CLSU) to discuss the science and commerce of eels.

Freshwater glass eels may yet be the country’s next high-value export, Dr. Apolinario V. Yambot, head of the Freshwater Aquaculture Center at CLSU’s College of Fisheries, told Malaya Business Insight.

Eels that grow into marketable size are highly priced in Asian cuisine and they thrive in Philippine rivers, explained Yambot who leads pioneering molecular and genetic studies on local eels.

While the country is also looking at a huge market for elvers to stock commercial farms in Asia, he said, it even means more revenue if the eels are raised here.

The country is strategically located because many of its neighbors have voracious appetites for eels, he pointed out, while Filipinos are not that much into cooking eels.

Intensive pond cultivation of eels is already worth over $1.2 billion a year, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates. World cultivation of freshwater eels (mainly Japanese eels and European eels) is pegged at 270,000 tons a year.

The bulk comes from Asia, with China the largest producer of farmed Japanese eels, Chung-Zen Shyu, of the Union of Eel & Shrimp Breeders Cooperative of Taiwan, said during the symposium.

Taiwan, South Korea and Japan are not far behind, he said, adding that in terms of export value, eel farming tops fisheries in Taiwan, with 90 percent of its eel exports going to Japan.

The major producers of farmed European eels are China, The Netherlands, Italy and Denmark, followed by Spain, Greece, Sweden and Germany.

Eels are highly valuable because, with strong a resistance to disease, their survival and thus production rates are high, said Yu-San Han of the National Taiwan University.

"Because eels are highly nutritious, there is also a strong consumer demand," he said. The wild marbled eel, for example, has long been valued in China as a highly nourishing food.

Japanese eel is the main cultured species in China, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea – the main players, producing about 100,000 metric tons a year, mostly consumed in Japan.

Philippine inland fisheries scientists are interested also because eels are among the migratory high-value fishes with aquaculture potential. These include mullets (such as the ludong in Cagayan River), gobies, pigek (Mesopristes cancellatus), and maliputo in Taal Lake.

These migratory fishes move across a wide range of saline environments, from fresh- to salt water and vice versa, said Yambot who is the first to study the migratory patterns and molecular characterization of these fishes.

"These fish species remain understudied and possibly other species remain to be identified," said Yambot.

A. huangi, for example, is a freshwater eel newly discovered by scientists at CLSU and at the Department of Life Science, National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan.

Eels abound in places such as the Cagayan Valley where migrating, high-valued glass eels are present the whole year in the Cagayan, Abulog and Wangag rivers, Yambot pointed out.

The Cagayan offshore current is along the migration path of the eels, particularly the North Equatorial Current that goes north to join Japan’s Kuroshio Current, he said.

Three species of eels (the newly discovered A. huangi, A. marmorata, and A. bicolor pacifica) have been identified in northern Luzon and in Buayan River in General Santos City, southern Mindanao.

The presence of A. huangi in Mindanao’s Buayan River suggests the time it takes to migrate from Luzon which peaks from July to September, coinciding with the split of the North Equatorial Current northward and southward east of Mindanao.

"The distribution of eels and its population composition are important in population dynamics, management and conservation strategies," Yambot said, adding that the declining eel stocks in other parts of the world is advantageous to the Philippines as a potential source of eels.

China, Taiwan and Japan already import glass eels from the Philippines, albeit at a smaller scale than those coming from Europe and Australia to supply farms where eels are raised into marketable size.

The Philippines does not have the problems experienced by other countries such as blocked migration route, polluted waterways, diseases, and excessive harvesting of glass eels to stock farms, Yambot said.

Eel overfishing is a problem in other countries as great numbers of glass eels are caught in the wild to supply aquaculture farms.

In Taiwan and Guangdong province of China, it takes one to two years in open pond farming for eels to grow into marketable size. In Japan, South Korea and Fukien (China) where greenhouse farming is practiced, eels take six months to just over a year to grow.

"The unstable supply of glass eels from the wild, expensive production in captivity and limited consumption markets restrain the sustainable development of eel aquaculture," said Han. "Due to the rapidly declining eel resource in the wild, eel conservation and management have now been taken seriously."

Because of the shortage of Japanese eels, he said, the competition for the glass eel will become more serious. "Monitoring resources is the key for eel aquaculture," he said.

Tuguegarao City gov't grants tax relief

TUGUEGARAO CITY, Jan. 7 (PIA) -- The City Government of Tuguegarao is granting tax relief for the business and real property taxpayers.
Hon. Delfin Ting, City Mayor, said under City Ordinance No. 09-2010 the city government is granting tax relief for the condonation of surcharges and interests on business tax and real property tax arrearages in the city from January 1, 2011 up to March 31, 2011.
The Mayor has also scheduled the payment period of payment for the current year. For real property tax, the payment is on quarterly basis which include March 31, 2011 for the first quarter, June 30, 2011 for the second quarter, September 30, 2011 for the third quarter and December 30, 2011 for the fourth quarter.
For business permits and licenses, it is scheduled up to January 20, 2011; the professional tax is up to January 31, 2011; while the community tax is scheduled up to February 28, 2011.
“We also grant discount on real property tax for the whole year such as 15 percent discount if the tax for the whole year is paid on or before March 31, 2011”, Ting stated.
For the prompt payers, they are also given 10 percent discount within the quarterly schedule.
On the other hand, the city government is currently updating its revenue data bank in its goal to increase revenue collection.
Ting said to come up with reliable database, they are coordinating with all government agencies to get lists of employees residing in the city to know who are really paying taxes. (PIA 2)

Intellectual property protection for SMEs pushed

O AVOID repeated incidences of copyright infringement, the government said Saturday that it will launch more information campaigns this year to encouraged small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to protect their intellectual assets.

Ricardo Blancaflor, director general of the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IP Philippines), said SMEs are bound to suffer financial headaches if they do not protect their brands.

“We expect more (trademarks and patent) filings from them," he said. "We have to increase awareness among our SMEs. There are several treaties we have to accede to not only because we have actually signed them, but also to give us better footing with those we do business with."

Data from the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) showed that around 95 percent of the country’s registered businesses belong to SMEs.

The same segment comprises 30 percent of sales revenue and employs more than 60 percent of the country’s labor force.

As he expects more IP filings across trademarks, inventions, and patents this year, Blancaflor said IP Philippines will soon establish satellite offices in Cagayan de Oro and Tuguegarao to make its services accessible to more regions.

IP Philippines currently has satellite offices in Cebu City, Davao City, Angeles City in Pampanga, Legazpi City, Baguio City, Iloilo City, and General Santos City.

In line with this development is the continuous process of automating their systems while lobbying Congress to pass a law that would “properly promote copyrights and protect Philippine ingenuity.”

“Sometimes we forget that more than enforcement, there are other ways of protecting IP rights. We are also concentrating on amending our own internal rules on the judicial processes available to those who would like to seek remedy with us,” Blancaflor noted.

Blancaflor said IP Philippines likewise continues to build on the framework of partnership with the government.

“But there are other activities which our people are doing other than just accepting filings. In Cebu, we are active in engaging the universities; we feel that R&D (research and development) are future based on universities.”

The World Intellectual Property Organization said the Philippines averaged 6,000 to 7,000 a year on copyright registrations in the last five years. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)

SM Prime sets record mall construction for this year

THE Philippines’ largest retailer will launch a record number of shopping malls this year, including a joint venture with a local government that will house a public market. Jeffrey Lim, SM Prime Holdings Inc. executive vice president and chief finance officer, told reporters that the mall developer would roll out six new malls in Masinag, Antipolo; San Fernando and Apalit in Pampanga; Consolacion, Cebu; Sucat, Paranaque; and Dasmarinas, Cavite.

The new malls will translate to about 400,000 square meters of gross leasable space.

Lim said the six mall openings this year will be a record in terms of number. Its biggest launch in terms of gross leasable area was in 2006 when it opened Mall of Asia in Pasay City, its largest in the country.

SM Prime has also started the construction of a shopping center in General Santos City and its second mall in Davao, all set to begin commercial operations in 2012.

For its mall in Dasmarinas, SM Prime has entered into a partnership with the local government, allowing the company to lease a two-hectare property for its mall, which will have a public market in the basement.

“We pay them [local government] rental of the property. On top of that, in a way, we can improve the service and quality and we will be able to maintain the area,” said Lim, adding that it offered the local government an unsolicited proposal for this particular venture.

SM Prime will establish a hypermarket and some food stands in the ground floor and will lease the second floor to third party tenants. The top floor will be a parking area.

The company has yet to decide on a name for this particular venture, which is expected to open in the fourth quarter of the year.

The success of the P500-million Dasmarinas mall will determine if SM Prime will pursue more public market partnership projects with local governments in the future.

“Public markets are usually rundown now. Those local governments have the funds to redevelop [the market] but they have other priorities in providing basic services to the people,” Lim said.

This year, SM Prime will spend P20.1 billion, of which P9 billion will be allocated for the construction of its malls in Chongqing and Zibo and payment of the land in Tianjin. The remaining P11 billion will be set aside for the development of its new malls.

Last year, SM Prime opened five malls in Tarlac, Novaliches, Calamba and San Pablo in Laguna, and its fourth mall in mainland China, which is located in the city of Suzhou.

SM Prime’s nine-month net income grew 11 percent to P5.6 billion from P5.1 billion in the same period last year on the back of new mall openings and same-store rental growth.

Its shares lost P0.02 to close at P11.30 each on Friday.

Sana maglagay sila sa region 2 kahit isa lang...

Yung six na nabangit ay parang public market na ginawang mall at 500 million each so 3 billion na yun... Hopefully may project din sila sa region 2 para sa natitirang 8 billion....^^

2nd thing gusto ng city mayor ng tugue na magkaroon ng malaking stadium. chineck nila yun tuguegarao peoples gymnasium kung pwedeng irenovate at palakihin.then sabi ng city engineer na irenovate pwede pero yun size ganun na din.

3rd thing. gusto din ng mayor at city officials na magkaroon ng sariling sports complex na kumpleto sa kagamitan.

at yun naganap na session nila last december ay proposed of International Convention Center and regional sports complex to build in carig or larion..

with the cooperation of RDC.

MERON TALAGANG plano na ibalik ang Seat ng govt sa lallo.
dahil eto ang magiging soon to be richest town in cagayan valley.
pero sa tingin ko ghihintayin muna nilang:

mag ka 4th district sa cagayan.

at maging HUC ANG TUGUEGARAO.

at makabuo ng isang metropolitan ang cagayan.

Considering that Lallo was once the Capital town of Cagayan, I woudn't be surprised if it would happen.

In regards to making Tuguegarao an HUC, think again what is really important to you guyz in 2gue. You might just get what you wished for. However, I have said it several times, and I say it again, regarding sustainability. I can't emphasized enough, without citing "Hargreaves & Finks"
definiton, saying; "Sustainability does not simply mean whether something will last. It addresses how particular initiatives can developed without compromising the development of others in the surrounding environment now and in the future". MM a classic example, as development expanded
exponetially in quadratic directions from Manila as its anchor, Manila the city center at one time is now being left behind by more progressisve municipalities nearby. And getting at the Manila city center is a huge struggle. Traffic jams hinderss mobility in the city.

Now, once 2gue become an HUC, you will be creating a huge "metro" and without proper planning and infrastructure, getting at the city center will soon be an hour or more of ranting. IMO:)

COMELEC sees peaceful, orderly special elections in 2nd district
by Thelma C. Bicarme

Tuguegarao City, Jan. 12 (PIA) - The Commission on Elections of Cagayan predicts a peaceful, honest, and orderly elections in the province’s second district on March 12 as there are no election hot spots identified and no election-related violence were noted during the past Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) in the said district.

During the weekly PIA online radio program at DWPE Radyo ng Bayan, Atty. Catherine B. Allas, provincial election supervisor said they are now preparing for the elections pursuant to Resolution No. 9109 which was promulgated last January 4, 2011.

Under the said resolution, the election period will be on February 10 - March 22 which is 30 days before and 10 days after the elections.

The prohibited acts during this period are as follows: issuance of appointments, promotion, creation and filling of new positions, giving of salary increases in government offices, use of security personnel or bodyguards by candidates, construction or maintenance of provincial, city, municipal or barangay-funded roads and bridges, making any donation or gift in cash or in kind, among others.

The filing of certificates of candidacies will start on February 21 and will end on February 25 and the campaign period will be on February 26 up to 12 midnight of March 10.

Allas has reminded those who will be filing their COCs not to bring their supporters during the filing period saying that it is already a form of premature campaigning.

Likewise, she advised the supporters to follow the guidelines in the posting of election posters. “Removing, destroying, defacing, tampering or preventing distribution of lawful election propaganda are prohibited under Sec. 83 of the Omnibus Election Code.

As to the specific guidelines, Allas said they are still waiting for the resolutions to be issued by the Comelec en banc.

The election supervisor however said that she sees no major revisions in the previous election guidelines issued during the past elections.

Allas has urged the candidates to conform with the election laws to avoid problems in the future adding that they have filed a case against a politician in the province and it is still in court.

The second district is composed of the municipalities of Abulug, Allacapan, Ballesteros, Calayan, Claveria, Lasam, Pamplona, Piat, Rizal, Sanchez Mira, Sta Praxedes, and Sto Nino. (TCbicarme/PIA 2)

Without adjusting for inflation since 2000, there are only 21 municipalities that have met the PhP 100 million local income requirement. Of these, just 19 are eligible for cityhood, because Bauan (Batangas) and Carmona (Cavite) do not meet either the 150,000 population requirement or the 100-sq. km. land area requirement as mandated by current laws.

All the 19 municipalities eligible for cityhood come from either Region III or IV-A. In the top 40 (municipalities with local incomes above PhP 60 million), only 7 come from outside these two regions.

The column "Dependence on own income" is the percentage of the LGU's locally-sourced income as a part of its total income. A high percentage means that the LGU relies heavily on its own revenue collections rather than being dependent on funds from the national government. The most self-reliant municipality is Carmona, with 78.97% of its income actually coming from its own coffers.
A low percentage means that the LGU is mainly being propped up by taxpayer (your) money. Many of the underperforming cities (especially those from the so-called "League of 16") have very low rates of dependence on their own locally-sourced incomes - many under 10%!

What are your thoughts on the matter? Is it justifiable that taxpayer money is being spent on LGUs that don't necessarily perform as well as they should? How do you propose we correct the current system of IRA sharing?

haha kung gnito ang mangyayari eh malabong maging richest town ang Lal-lo dahil sa sobrang layo na ng agwat nila ng 2gue. Once maging HUC ang 2gue at magkaroon ng Metropolitan ang Cagayan which 2gue will be the lone city of this metro eh tingin ko dadagsa at dadagsa ang mga investments d2, na lalo pang magpapataas sa status ng 2gue ngaun. Kaya malabo ng mahabol ng Lal-lo ang 2gue!

...hindi malabo ang mangyari ito guys.
kung maririnig mo lang ang report ng neda sa economic status ng region 02. at ang sinasabi nilang eye of the investors in 2011 ra the Muncipality of Sta.ana and Lallo.

kung walang mag malalaking businesses ang mag iinvest sa tugue mahahabol nila ito. dahil sa 2 towns na yan ay puro international business ang mag iinvest.
gayan ng sta.ana
note: the 114 ang sure ng mag iinvest sa town na to. threfore multi billions pesos.
sa lallo wala pa...

sa tugue considering maganda ang pamamahala nila(alam ng tugue forumers yon) nasa magandang status ng ekonomiya pero puro local ang mag iinvest at kahit anong programa pa at infrastractures ang papatayo pwede parin mahabol ang tugue.

about third district pla.tugue lang maunlaD TAMA PO BA..

pumunta kayo 1st and 2nd district mauunlad lahat ng bayan.at may sariling economic strategy ang mga bayan nila.

^^
Melvyn Vargas Jr. vs. ex-Gov./Cong. Edgar Lara. I'm rooting for Lara. Nagtra-trabaho talaga yan, di tulad ng mga Vargas na pala-absent.

Tama ka jan, palagi ako sa Abulug pero wla man lang pagbabago...ung Vargas Resort sbrang pangit na. sayang lang un, ang ganda nun noon eh.

if you mean abulug poblacion,yes wala ka ngang makikitang pagbabago don...
but the more progressive part of abulug lies on the part of juction luna in barangay libertad..in fact,,it is becoming a commercial hub on that part of northern cagayan and serves as a gateway in the province of apayao...

i would say that junction luna in abulug just rank behind tuguegarao, aparri, sanchez mira, and camalaniugan in terms of the vibrancy of its commercial propers
actually,,these are the only ones who has some popular establishments and vibrant market in whole cagayan province

@cagayan on the rise
it would be nice if you post that in the philippine economy thread,,,:)

Electric vehicles, isinusulong sa Tuguegarao nasolusyon sa lumalalang air pollution

TUGUEGARAO CITY(01/13/11) --- Isinusulong ngayon ang paggamit ng electric vehicles sa lungsod ng Tuguegarao.

Sa panayam ng Bombo Radyo kay Mayor Delfin Ting ng Tuguegarao City, sinabi nito na ito ay bilang solusyon sa lumalalang air pollution sa kalungsuran.

Ayon kay Ting, 20 hanggang 30 motorsiklo at jeepney na pinapatakbo ng elektrisidad ang bibilhin ng city government para ipautang sa mga namamasada sa lungsod pagkatapos ng first quarter ng taon.

Bukod sa matutugunan ang problema sa polusyon sa hangin, bababa pa umano ang pasahe sa mga traysikel sa lungsod dahil hindi na ito kailangan pang gumamit ng napakamahal na krudo o gasolina.

Lumabas kasi sa pag-aaral ng Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) Region 2 na masyadong mataas ang level ng polusyon sa hangin sa lungsod dala ng mga nagsulputang pabrika o gusali at mga bumibiyaheng traysikel araw-araw.

Sinabi ni Romeo Fragata ng EMB na kung hindi ito matugunan sa pinakamadaling panahon, maaaring magdulot ito ng mga respiratory infections, lung cancer at sakit sa puso sa mga mamamayan.###

I wonder what makes the Philippines' GDP that high compared to other countries that obviously more industrialized. :) One of the best export of PI according to Ramos when I had a chance to interview him in 1997, during the Apec summit here in Vancouver are "OFW's". Make sense. they brought in almost $19b, in the the Philippines' Economy this year alone.:)

mayaman naman talaga ang Pilipinas.. masyado lang tayo naloloko ng media. at hindi lang halata na maunlad tayo compared sa ibang nation kasi ang itsura ng housing development sa bansa natin mukhang squatters. ang kalinisan wala atang nagi-implement. what we need is discipline and not democracy. meron na tayong demokrasya, wala lang tayong disiplina... haha, my honest opinion. :)
