kalooy sa dios lahi na ang surigao karon lacoste. talking about bagyo, kalooy sa dios, wa na jud bagyoha ang surigao. kanang cg balita sa TV nga signal no 1 2 3 daw, dont know lang dis-a agi ang hangin nga everytime naay i news nga naa bagyo, kalooy sa dios, linaw ang surigao. wala na tood ang jerry's lacoste. it is now Metro Surigao Shopping Center with foodcourt na sa second floor.

about sa airport, lahi ra ang sa nonoc kay private man adto. ang commercial airport kay jari gajud sa city ug lain pud ang commercial airport nga toa sa siargao nga active usab. so surigao province hosted two active airports. ug kini gi serbisyohan sa PAL express, cebu pacific and soon zest air.

about sa investments, naa man usab. nxt year mag open na siguro ang japanese company (forgot the exact name) na mo hatag ug investment worth billions nga usa ka nickel plant adto sa claver ug kini nagkinahanglan ug more or less 4,000 workers upon construction stage ug nag hiring na sila abot pa gani sa butuan.

surigao city and the province for now is the home of one of the country's most modern sports complex and the most modern in caraga region. it is also the home of the country's 3rd and mindanao's first sanitary landfill. todate, surigao city is also the place where the only 3 star hotel in the region is located. and as of now some of the country's best shops/restaurants like bench, david salon and goldilocks have decided put up branches in the city and hopefully mag open pud ni sila sa other parts of caraga like butuan. so far, yan lang naman hehehehe gagmay ra na nga investments pero lipay nami ana diri oi.

anyway, welcome to surigao lacoste, the city of island adventure and the surfing capital of the philippines.

well said,villager.

actually, it's a joint venture, villager. Nickel Asia Corporation (headed by Bunny Zamora of Taganito Mining Corp, Hinatuan Mining Corp and Cagdianao Mining Corp) and Sumitomo Corporation are the partners in operating the High Pressure Acid Lime (HPAL) plant to be constructed just beside the Taganito Mining area in Claver. These two industrial leaders are also the owners of the country's biggest nickel plant of record in Rio Tuba,Palawan. When the Claver plant is finished it will be thrice as as large as that in Rio Tuba, Palawan.:)

really! this is good news! wew! thnx for this info dangas. uno may source nimo ini na info ngas?

Tama ikaw bulldog, layo ra sa tinuod ang surigao compara nimo sa ubang city like tagum, pagadian, ozamis, tacloban, butuan, nga sa una raman unta ni na city. Kurakot kaayo ang mga politicos diha mga barbers, og pimentel. Nya mag sige lang og post aning thread nga very progressive city in pinas pero naa lagi pero sus gamay ra. Why nganong naka comment ko ani? tinuod oi diba? kulang sa infra ang Surigao. Diha ko pag palarong pambansa og naa lagi nice ang sports complex sa probinsya tapos ang gym ok sad, pero lantawa ang mga tao nga nag puyo sa boulevard nag kalisod :bash: gi unsa man pag huna huna sa mga leaders diha? gituman ang mga way gamit nga infra, oh nibarog ang world class complex bisan dili, tapos pag human wala na dayon tuboan nag daghang sagbot pati ang pool pwede na mang limas og pantat diha or pwede na buhi-an og pijanga. Dapat unahon ang mga dalan nga piot kaayo. Walay maayong plan zoning ang Surigao. Nice ra ba untana kay duol sa Dagat.

AMEN! I should say, Surigao still far better than other provinces and cities in terms of physical developments but admittedly corrupt an mga leaders :lol: and that's my opinion :cheers:

Less? kay wala lang kakasayod igsoon ko kung unsa na nahitabo sa panudlanan diha sa inyong lungsod. Wala ka ka realize nga dugay naman untang city nang inyong lungsod unya unsa may nahitabo karon nga nalabwan namo sa gagmay nga city sama sa Pagadian nga makita nato nga less ra jud ang corruption didtdo. Mao nay insakto diha. Pamulihan unta nang inyong mga leaders diha aron mo asensu sad mo sama diri sa amo sa CdeO.

in my observation bulldog mas less kuman ang corruption but still may corruption gihapon :lol:

suko ka? :lol: ay ay sab kaw, umay pag compare nimo sa surigao sa cdo? anyway, corruption is a socila problem ug dili kini masulbad not unless kita mismo ang magbag-o.

i agree with you, hinay ang progress sa syudad ug walay nagkiglalis ana, amo bitaw daghan nag yawyaw diri tungod ana but still we are thankful nga maski ing-ani ang syudad sa surigao dili me diri gubot ug layo sa mga katalagman.

kung unsa may nahitabo sa amo panudlanan, atleast nakita namo ang taghimo kay sa tagbulsa lang.

Dapat unahon ang mga dalan nga piot kaayo. Walay maayong plan zoning ang Surigao. Nice ra ba untana kay duol sa Dagat.

kanang imong gipanghisgutan nga mga syudad loloy kay mga regional center man na sila. pwede ayaw e compare ang surigao nga component city lang sa mga lugar nga regional center. if you have nothing good to say about surigao will you please stop posting here ug adto ka magkalat sa cdo ok! i love cdo pero pwede ayaw pud na e compare sa butuan ha kay dili mo ka level kat bata pa ang butuan. kung sa tawo pa maas napud mo pero look at your city ni wa gani na nag kingking sa davao ug cebu.

ayaw kasuya ug nanghambog me sa small progress sa surigao tungod kana kay proud mi kaayo maski mao rana amo nakab-ot ok?

Wala man ko masuko Sir, opinion lang nang ako-a. Gi compare lang nako kung unsa kadugay nahimong city ang inyong lugar og wala kaayo na improve because of the leaders nga nag ingkod ra chair.

Tama ka! nice pamati-on ang lugar nga walay gubot sama diri sa CdeO linaw ang among lugar. Mapili ra diri sa Mindanao ang Peaceful nga city sama sa CdeO of course, Butuan, Pagadian, Ozamis, ingon man ka nga surigao, so apil ang Surigao og ang Gensan, Davao, Zamboanga murag 50-50 kay daghan man lagi mga extrimist nga mo adto sa ilang lugar ayaw lang ka offend mga brothers nating muslim kay murag sila ra may nag pa siug-da :ohno:

suko ka? :lol: ay ay sab kaw, umay pag compare nimo sa surigao sa cdo? anyway, corruption is a socila problem ug dili kini masulbad not unless kita mismo ang magbag-o.

kung unsa may nahitabo sa amo panudlanan, atleast nakita namo ang taghimo kay sa tagbulsa lang.

Kon ako gajud tan-awon an sitwasyon nan Surigao, dili ako kuntento sa dyagan nan syudad tungod kay an makita na bag-o sa Surigao mainly develop from private sector. Infra is poor, no livelihood na tag create nan LGU para sa mga tawo. May mga bag-o na mga investors nanuyod sa Surigao not because na may marajaw na programa an LGU to attract investments to bring in. Tourism industry of Surigao has huge potential to bring more jobs to many jobless Surigaonon pero waya gihapon kuyang pa gajud an effort nan mga leaders.

Nagka parehas ra ton sila mga Barbers sanan Casurra puro ra amga propaganda an nahibay-an pero lajo sa tinu-od. Proud karajaw si Ponso mo sulti na kesyu marajaw an ratings nan Surigao sa survey pero waya sija masipog na an mga squatters jaon mismo nag lumbay sa kilid nan dagat :bash: an mga politiko sa Surigao puro ra buya-buya an mga baba pero way mga nangahimo, jaon pay mga tagpanukod na mga gym sa mga baryo pero waya mangahuman nag usik-usik ran kwarta an mga mananap :bash:

Unya mo ingon ka nga mabag-o ang maong lugar unless kung ma bag-o sad ang mga tao. So karon palang bag-uhon na inyong mga batasan sa pag pili sa maong leaders nga mo encourage para mapalambo sa inyon lugar, like what Tagum and Pagadian did. Naa sa mga leaders hand ang asensu sa lugar oi. The attitude of the people itself ang maka pa huyang sa inyong lungsod. Mo sugot ra diay ka nga ing ana ra ang abot sa inyong gamay nga city sa imong sulti. Like what bulldog said that tourism has huge potential sa inyong lugar.

pero ato pud unta huna hunaon and epekto sa kinaiyahan ani nga mga mining ventures ug company :bash:

thnx for the info jed. by that time, samot jud kadato ang claver. basi pa gani mas dako pa ang income ani kay sa uban nga tag declare nga cities kuman. imagine five active mining companies operating within its jurisdiction ug wala pa labot ana ang Sumitomo Corp. i heard 50k ang bunos nga nadawat sa mga empleyado sa LGU ug sa mga teachers. dont knw lang kung tinood pero i hope nga tinood. :banana: :banana: :banana:

Nihatag raman ko og opinion oi ngano nasuko man ka? nag compare lang ko sa kadugayon sa city mao nga natingala ko sa progress nganong ing ana ra ang abot sa Surigao kay tungod sa mga leaders. Unya mo ingon ka nga mabag-o ang maong lugar unless kung ma bag-o sad ang mga tao. So karon palang bag-uhon na inyong mga batasan sa pag pili sa maong leaders nga mo encourage para mapalambo sa inyon lugar, like what Tagum and Pagadian did.

relaks ka lang kay moabot ra mi diha. kinsa bay dili malain sa imo mga post nga naka highlight paka unya naka underline pa jud. kabalo ka ba diri kung mao na ang imo buhaton sa imo mga post, bagan naningka ka sa imong isigpakno?

again stop comparing our city to tagum and pagadian kay mga regional center na sila. what if i told you na layo ra mo kaayo sa progress sa makati davao or samot na sa cebu nga wa ra jud mo nag kingking bisan bali-balihon pa. uno may imo ikasulti ana minicity? tubaga daw na. ajao e compare ang itlog sa manok kay dili jud ta magkasinabot bisan unsaon pa nato.

oo sakto ka minicity, progressive kaayo inyong lugar, dili corrupt inyong leaders ug tungod ana nahimong mong SEX CAPITAL OF THE PHILIPPINES. kana maoy atimana ug sulbad ha. ayaw pangilabot sa mga tawo o lugar nga wa manghilabot nimo.

next time be careful sa imo mga comment labi na kung wala ka sa inyong lugar.

pero ato pud unta huna hunaon and epekto sa kinaiyahan ani nga mga mining ventures ug company :bash:

our mining law is one of the best in the world. proper mplementation lang ang gikinahanglan. believe me, mas lasang pa tan-awon ang reforestation project nan taganito mining kay sa lugar na waya pa nila hilabti, thus, sige jud ka award ang taganito mining. daan man gud walay kahoy diha.

aprub ako sa taganito pero dili ako mo aprub sa place (manila mining placer project)

Ang imong mga post @minicity ang usa sa maka pa init aside from bold imong fonts. Dili nimo i compare compare ang mga city to city kay dakong lalis ang mahitabo... Naay wala sa inyong lugar nga wala among lugar.. ug naay wala sa inyong lugar nga naa sa amo. Lahi lahi atong mga city mao nga ayaw sig compara. Kanang inyong city nga dugay rang gi ulipon sa una ang Butuan sa sakop pa ang Butuan sa Region 10. Taman ra intawon sa pisik ang nagahin sa Butuan kay naa tanan sa inyo...

In respect to those CdeO SSC members murag ikaw ra jud ang mi balagbag. Mag respetaray ta kay kita ang na alaot sa Prime Manila nga didto sa ilaha hing hapak ang mga swerte. Ayaw daug dauga ang among mga city diri kay mubarog ra kini ug mo simag nalang nang imong mata.. butangan unya namo og check point aron dili naka ka agi.. joke :hahaha:

Tama ikaw bulldog, layo ra sa tinuod ang surigao compara nimo sa ubang city like tagum, pagadian, ozamis, tacloban, butuan, nga sa una raman unta ni na city. Kurakot kaayo ang mga politicos diha mga barbers, og pimentel. Nya mag sige lang og post aning thread nga very progressive city in pinas pero naa lagi pero sus gamay ra. Why nganong naka comment ko ani? tinuod oi diba? kulang sa infra ang Surigao. Diha ko pag palarong pambansa og naa lagi nice ang sports complex sa probinsya tapos ang gym ok sad, pero lantawa ang mga tao nga nag puyo sa boulevard nag kalisod :bash: gi unsa man pag huna huna sa mga leaders diha? gituman ang mga way gamit nga infra, oh nibarog ang world class complex bisan dili, tapos pag human wala na dayon tuboan nag daghang sagbot pati ang pool pwede na mang limas og pantat diha or pwede na buhi-an og pijanga. Dapat unahon ang mga dalan nga piot kaayo. Walay maayong plan zoning ang Surigao. Nice ra ba untana kay duol sa Dagat.

Wala man ko masuko Sir, opinion lang nang ako-a. Gi compare lang nako kung unsa kadugay nahimong city ang inyong lugar og wala kaayo na improve because of the leaders nga nag ingkod ra chair.

Tama ka! nice pamati-on ang lugar nga walay gubot sama diri sa CdeO linaw ang among lugar. Mapili ra diri sa Mindanao ang Peaceful nga city sama sa CdeO of course, Butuan, Pagadian, Ozamis, ingon man ka nga surigao, so apil ang Surigao og ang Gensan, Davao, Zamboanga murag 50-50 kay daghan man lagi mga extrimist nga mo adto sa ilang lugar ayaw lang ka offend mga brothers nating muslim kay murag sila ra may nag pa siug-da :ohno:

Nihatag raman ko og opinion oi ngano nasuko man ka? nag compare lang ko sa kadugayon sa city mao nga natingala ko sa progress nganong ing ana ra ang abot sa Surigao kay tungod sa mga leaders. Unya mo ingon ka nga mabag-o ang maong lugar unless kung ma bag-o sad ang mga tao. So karon palang bag-uhon na inyong mga batasan sa pag pili sa maong leaders nga mo encourage para mapalambo sa inyon lugar, like what Tagum and Pagadian did. Naa sa mga leaders hand ang asensu sa lugar oi. The attitude of the people itself ang maka pa huyang sa inyong lungsod. Mo sugot ra diay ka nga ing ana ra ang abot sa inyong gamay nga city sa imong sulti. Like what bulldog said that tourism has huge potential sa inyong lugar. Then, what you're gonna do? just to vote this current leader and retain as leader sa inyong place nga mao ra gihapon?

:bash::bash:punto na check point nyorrrr:bash::bash:

:bash: unsa man dire dapita sir dangs mura man ug GYERA hehehehehe:bash:

hhoi mga mayaot nga bayong pasko ug new year karon unya mag gyera kamo,, undanga na ninyo maayo pa magtagay na lang :cheers::lol::banana::banana:

A farmer’s son becomes a topnotch educator
By Dr. RUBEN ABAYUCON
December 22, 2009, 9:24am

Many of the decisions we make now will have far-reaching effects in our lives in the future.

If Dr. Ruben Abucayon, for instance, had not persisted in finishing college, Surigao del Norte would have lost an invaluable educator, and children from across the country would not have heard of his inspiring story.

Laki Sa Gatas, the nutrition education advocacy initiated by Bear Brand Powedered Milk, taps into the ideals of a Laki Sa Gatas person — one who successfully surmounts life’s challenges and makes a name for him/herself by remaining strong in mind and body – from whom parents, educators, and children could take inspiration from.

Dr. Abucayon advocate spent his childhood years at the foothills of Mt. Kanayawan in Surigao del Norte. There, his parents, a farmer and a housekeeper, and six siblings worked hard in making ends meet.

“It was my mother who instilled discipline in me at a very young age. Looking back now, I think her being strict when it comes to my studies and the food I ate helped a lot in making me strong in facing life’s challenges,” Dr. Abucayon says.

He relates that her mother was especially meticulous when it comes to her children’s food and drinks.

“My mother always made sure that we ate vegetables and drink our milk. During harvest season, my milk consumption increases to two glasses a day — one before school and another one before going to bed,” the educator shares.

The Abucayon children needed to stay healthy and strong to make that long trek towards Capayahan Elementary School, which was three kilometers away from their home.

“I had to get up really early and leave at 5:30 a.m. for school, and walk another three kilometers to go back home,” Dr. Abucayon says.

The sacrifice paid off, as the young Abucayon graduated salutatorian from elementary school and eventually received a high school scholarship at a private school that his mother wanted him to attend.

HARD WORK PAYS OFF

The fifth child of a brood of seven, the young Abucayon also worked hard at helping his parents augment the family income.

“My weekends were spent helping out in our family’s rice and coconut fields. During Sundays,
my mother would harvest root crops that I would sell in school early Monday morning. I would then buy fish from my earnings in the afternoon to bring home to my family,” Dr. Abucayon shares.

During Sunday, the Abucayon family would hear mass in the morning, and in the afternoon, the siblings would be playing with the neighborhood kids.

“We had to go home by 5 o’clock in time for our 6 o’clock rosary,” Dr. Abucayo says.

It was during playtime on Sundays that the young Abucayon displayed a penchant for teaching.

“I would be playing teacher with my playmates as my students. I would use the heart of the cassava plant as chalk,” Dr. Abucayon reveals.

NO GIVING UP

When he graduated as 4th honorable mention in high school, Dr. Abucayon had high hopes that he would eventually pursue his dream of becoming a teacher. Tragedy, though, struck the family and almost ruined his chances of getting into college.

“My mother died and my father told me that it would be better if I didn’t continue college. I cried so hard that time. I told him, ‘Pa, gusto ko talaga makatapos ng college (Pa, I really want to finish college)’,” the Laki Sa Gatas advocate recalls.

Instead of giving up, though, the young Abucayon prayed hard that help would come along, and indeed it came. His grandmother heard of his predicament and offered the earnings from her rice field to pay for her grandson’s first year college tuition. During weekdays, Dr. Abucayon worked as a waiter in one of Surigao City’s restaurants to earn money for books.

By the time he was in his sophomore year in college, his siblings pitched in to help put him through school. “Two of my brothers were farmers and my sister was a barangay secretary that time. They themselves didn’t pursue college, but they were kind enough to make sure that I finish school,” Dr. Abucayon says.

In March 1993, the young Abucayon graduated cum laude with a degree in Secondary Education. He then went on to finish a master’s degree in Biology Education from Ateneo de Manila University
here in Manila. In 2007, he earned his PhD in Educational Management from St. Paul University in Surigao.

After college, he likewise started pursuing his dream of being a teacher. He taught in high school and college and now works as an associate professor for Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology.

His dedication to the teaching profession, meanwhile, had been richly rewarded. In 2006, the education materials he developed won first prize in the National Strategic Intervention Material Competition of the 3rd National Science Fair. He also won the Most Outstanding Science Club Adviser for the Caraga Region.

The following year, Dr. Abucayon was declared by the Metrobank Foundation as one of the country’s most outstanding teachers and likewise received the Outstanding Caragan Achiever Award from the National Economic Development Authority.

“I think my greatest achievement is seeing my students do well in life. I once had a student who experienced difficulty in Physics. After a few years, he went back to visit me and told me that he was already an engineer and told me that had he not found Physics difficult in college, he wouldn’t have worked hard in mastering it,” he says.

a very sad news.....


MANILA, Philippines - Tiniyak kahapon ng Department of Foreign Affairs na parehong matutu-lungan ng pamahalaan ang Pilipinang napatay sa loob ng bahay ng Lebanese ambassador at ang suspek na isa ring overseas Filipino worker sa Austria.
Ayon kay Foreign Affairs Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs Esteban Conejos, inatasan na niya ang Embahada ng Pilipinas sa Vienna na ma¬kipag-ugnayan sa Vien¬nese Police at sa kampo ng biktima at mismong suspek na nakakulong at nahaharap sa kasong murder upang mabigyan ng ayuda ng pamahalaan.
Posibleng bigyan ng tulong legal o abogado ng em¬bahada ang nasabing suspek. Gayunman, kapag napatunayang nagkasala ay inaasahan na masesen¬tensyahan ito ng parusang bitay.
Aasistihan din ng Em¬ba¬hada ang pagpa¬pauwi sa bangkay ng bik¬tima maging ang anumang be¬ nepisyo na maaaring ma¬kuha nito at sa mister nito na dumating na sa Vienna.
Kinumpirma ni Conejos na umamin na ang suspek sa pagpatay kay Romalyn Basalo, 30, tubong Surigao del Norte. Tumanggi ang kalihim na pangalanan sa ngayon ang suspek.
Pagseselos ang tini¬tingnang motibo sa pama¬maslang kay Basalo na natagpuang tadtad ng saksak sa isang maliit na silid sa residential building ni Lebanese Ambassador to Vienna Ishaya El-Khoury na matatagpuan sa Gymnasium St. 59, 18th District ng Vienna.

Power, mining lead Caraga investments
By MIKE U. CRISMUNDO
December 31, 2009, 2:17pm

BUTUAN CITY – Economic boom in the Caraga Region continues to shine as power and mining industries added to the burgeoning business opportunities and both major players in 2010, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said.

The DTI also said agri-business and tree-planting are also expected to pick up next year.

The agency said target business investment might hit close P6 billion while also generating some 1,000 job opportunities.

In power-generating opportunities, at least two wind farms on Siargao Island are seen as one of the major players in Surigao del Norte next year.

Coal power plants in Agusan del Sur and Surigao del Sur, mini-hydro power plants in the municipalities in Jabonga and Santiago in Agusan del Norte and geothermal power plant in Mainit, Surigao del Norte, are also seen as major players in 2010.

“These big business investments will pick up next year,” said DTI-Caraga Regional Director Brielgo O. Pagaran.

He also said these big business opportunities will likewise boost tax revenues to both local and national coffers.

Added to the burgeoning income and employment generation in the Caraga Region is the $30-million International Labor Organization (ILO)-Sustainable Development for Indigenous People (IPs) fund, also in 2010, Pagaran said.

i hope economic boom is not only in papers...:bash:

Power, mining lead Caraga investments
By MIKE U. CRISMUNDO
December 31, 2009, 2:17pm

BUTUAN CITY – Economic boom in the Caraga Region continues to shine as power and mining industries added to the burgeoning business opportunities and both major players in 2010, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said.

The DTI also said agri-business and tree-planting are also expected to pick up next year.

The agency said target business investment might hit close P6 billion while also generating some 1,000 job opportunities.

In power-generating opportunities, at least two wind farms on Siargao Island are seen as one of the major players in Surigao del Norte next year.

Coal power plants in Agusan del Sur and Surigao del Sur, mini-hydro power plants in the municipalities in Jabonga and Santiago in Agusan del Norte and geothermal power plant in Mainit, Surigao del Norte, are also seen as major players in 2010.

“These big business investments will pick up next year,” said DTI-Caraga Regional Director Brielgo O. Pagaran.

He also said these big business opportunities will likewise boost tax revenues to both local and national coffers.

Added to the burgeoning income and employment generation in the Caraga Region is the $30-million International Labor Organization (ILO)-Sustainable Development for Indigenous People (IPs) fund, also in 2010, Pagaran said.

Tama ikaw bulldog, layo ra sa tinuod ang surigao compara nimo sa ubang city like tagum, pagadian, ozamis, tacloban, butuan, nga sa una raman unta ni na city. Kurakot kaayo ang mga politicos diha mga barbers, og pimentel. Nya mag sige lang og post aning thread nga very progressive city in pinas pero naa lagi pero sus gamay ra. Why nganong naka comment ko ani? tinuod oi diba? kulang sa infra ang Surigao. Diha ko pag palarong pambansa og naa lagi nice ang sports complex sa probinsya tapos ang gym ok sad, pero lantawa ang mga tao nga nag puyo sa boulevard nag kalisod :bash: gi unsa man pag huna huna sa mga leaders diha? gituman ang mga way gamit nga infra, oh nibarog ang world class complex bisan dili, tapos pag human wala na dayon tuboan nag daghang sagbot pati ang pool pwede na mang limas og pantat diha or pwede na buhi-an og pijanga. Dapat unahon ang mga dalan nga piot kaayo. Walay maayong plan zoning ang Surigao. Nice ra ba untana kay duol sa Dagat.

Less? kay wala lang kakasayod igsoon ko kung unsa na nahitabo sa panudlanan diha sa inyong lungsod. Wala ka ka realize nga dugay naman untang city nang inyong lungsod unya unsa may nahitabo karon nga nalabwan namo sa gagmay nga city sama sa Pagadian nga makita nato nga less ra jud ang corruption didtdo. Mao nay insakto diha. Pamulihan unta nang inyong mga leaders diha aron mo asensu sad mo sama diri sa amo sa CdeO.

Wala man ko masuko Sir, opinion lang nang ako-a. Gi compare lang nako kung unsa kadugay nahimong city ang inyong lugar og wala kaayo na improve because of the leaders nga nag ingkod ra chair.

Tama ka! nice pamati-on ang lugar nga walay gubot sama diri sa CdeO linaw ang among lugar. Mapili ra diri sa Mindanao ang Peaceful nga city sama sa CdeO of course, Butuan, Pagadian, Ozamis, ingon man ka nga surigao, so apil ang Surigao og ang Gensan, Davao, Zamboanga murag 50-50 kay daghan man lagi mga extrimist nga mo adto sa ilang lugar ayaw lang ka offend mga brothers nating muslim kay murag sila ra may nag pa siug-da :ohno:

Nihatag raman ko og opinion oi ngano nasuko man ka? nag compare lang ko sa kadugayon sa city mao nga natingala ko sa progress nganong ing ana ra ang abot sa Surigao kay tungod sa mga leaders. Unya mo ingon ka nga mabag-o ang maong lugar unless kung ma bag-o sad ang mga tao. So karon palang bag-uhon na inyong mga batasan sa pag pili sa maong leaders nga mo encourage para mapalambo sa inyon lugar, like what Tagum and Pagadian did. Naa sa mga leaders hand ang asensu sa lugar oi. The attitude of the people itself ang maka pa huyang sa inyong lungsod. Mo sugot ra diay ka nga ing ana ra ang abot sa inyong gamay nga city sa imong sulti. Like what bulldog said that tourism has huge potential sa inyong lugar. Then, what you're gonna do? just to vote this current leader and retain as leader sa inyong place nga mao ra gihapon?

Laong pa nan taga-Gigaquit - BUHANGINON KAW!:nuts:

Sus! kagana nimo patulan nakay malisod na manaog sa imu level. Uman di na kaw kabayos sa Davao ugsa ari kaw sa gagmay na lugar mangaway.

Inday BODIT kaw alo.

a very sad news.....


MANILA, Philippines - Tiniyak kahapon ng Department of Foreign Affairs na parehong matutu-lungan ng pamahalaan ang Pilipinang napatay sa loob ng bahay ng Lebanese ambassador at ang suspek na isa ring overseas Filipino worker sa Austria.
Ayon kay Foreign Affairs Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs Esteban Conejos, inatasan na niya ang Embahada ng Pilipinas sa Vienna na ma¬kipag-ugnayan sa Vien¬nese Police at sa kampo ng biktima at mismong suspek na nakakulong at nahaharap sa kasong murder upang mabigyan ng ayuda ng pamahalaan.
Posibleng bigyan ng tulong legal o abogado ng em¬bahada ang nasabing suspek. Gayunman, kapag napatunayang nagkasala ay inaasahan na masesen¬tensyahan ito ng parusang bitay.
Aasistihan din ng Em¬ba¬hada ang pagpa¬pauwi sa bangkay ng bik¬tima maging ang anumang be¬ nepisyo na maaaring ma¬kuha nito at sa mister nito na dumating na sa Vienna.
Kinumpirma ni Conejos na umamin na ang suspek sa pagpatay kay Romalyn Basalo, 30, tubong Surigao del Norte. Tumanggi ang kalihim na pangalanan sa ngayon ang suspek.
Pagseselos ang tini¬tingnang motibo sa pama¬maslang kay Basalo na natagpuang tadtad ng saksak sa isang maliit na silid sa residential building ni Lebanese Ambassador to Vienna Ishaya El-Khoury na matatagpuan sa Gymnasium St. 59, 18th District ng Vienna.

2010 One Stop Processing of Business Permits Opens
at Tuesday, January 5, 2010


Mayor Pons formally opened the One-Stop-Shop processing of business permits at exactly 8:00 o’clock in the morning of January 4, 2010.

The venue for the permit processing is the Surigao City Auditorium and is expected to cater to the businessmen of the city at the most expeditious manner.

For the last four years, the average processing time has been maintained at the level of less than 2 and a half hour and the same is seen to be achieved this year or even better.

The first 10 businessmen who were issued their respective business permits were honored in simple rites at the office of the City Mayor immediately after the Mayor signed the permits in their presence.

As announced, the processing of the permits will continue until midnight of January 25, 2010. (surigaocity.gov.ph)

Yearender: DOTC: Its thrusts and strategies
January 2, 2010 12:32 pm
MANILA, Jan. 2 — For over a century and a decade of public service, the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) plays a vital role in accelerating the nation’s economic development.


It provides the backbone for growth and enhances the country’s competitive edge through efficient, effective and secured transport and communications infrastructure, as well as by introducing innovations, management directions, policies, strategies and projects, all compliant with international standards and responsive in the changing times.

The DOTC, through the leadership of Secretary Leandro R. Mendoza, has implemented a number of programs and projects to attain the development strategy laid down by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to buttress and strengthen the country’s economy.

CIVIL AVIATION

Reforms were implemented and one significant positive action was the enactment in March 2008 of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP).

The creation of the CAAP ‘will update and strengthen the international framework of the country’s civil aviation industry and meet the standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

Airports were built, improved, modernized and upgraded to international standards to provide access to tourism destinations and improved air travel.

A total of 29 airports nationwide are being modernized to accommodate bigger aircraft and the increasing passenger traffic.

Among the airports are the Bacolod-Silay Airport, the Busuanga Airport. Caticlan Airport, Puerto Princesa, Siargao, and La Union International Airport.

The Ninoy Aquino International Airport-Terminal 3 (NAIA-IPT 3) started its operation with eight domestic flights from Cebu Pacific Air, followed by PAL Express and Air Philippines.

The growth in international passenger traffic has added impetus to the Air Services Agreement (ASA) negotiations with other countries. Last year, 14 air services negotiations had been completed which resulted in substantial increase in capacity entitlements for passenger and cargo services, making available additional seat capacities for the country's airlines and greater access to tourism destinations.

As part of the country’s commitments to the ASEAN in order to enhance the capabilities and professionalism of the ASEAN member countries’ respective aircraft investigators and strengthen, promote and develop cooperation to enhance aviation safety, authorities of ASEAN member countries signed on May 29, 2009, a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on Cooperation Relating to Aircraft Accident and Incidents Investigations.

RAILWAYS

Last year, once again, has proven the very significant role of the railways sector in improving the lives of the Filipino people. With the prices of oil-based fuels skyrocketing to new highs, people from all walks of life in Metro Manila have shifted to ride the light rail systems -– Light Rail Transit (LRT) Line 1, Light Rail Transit (LRT) Line 2, Metro Rail Transit (MRT) Line 3, and even the Philippine National Railways (PNR) South Commuter Railways.

More than one million passengers daily have benefited from using the light rail systems, which resulted in significant increase in both passengers time savings and motor vehicles operating-cost savings.

Meanwhile, the government is pursuing high-impact railways projects in an effort to complete the projects embodied in the National Railway Master Plan. For year 2009, the notable accomplishments for the railway sector include the following:

–The vision to finally close the LRT 1–MRT 3 loop will soon become a reality. The construction of the Line 1 North Extension Project (Closing the MRT 3 and LRT Line 1 Loop) officially started on June 12, 2008.

The project involves the construction of a 5.71- kilometer elevated light rail line from the Monumento Station of LRT Line 1 in Caloocan City to the North Avenue Station of MRT 3 in Quezon City.

The project will connect LRT Line 1 and MRT 3, thereby, completing the loop that runs through the cities of Caloocan, Manila, Pasay, Makati, Mandaluyong, Pasig and Quezon. This would enable seamless travel through the major cities of Metro Manila. The project, costing about P6.322 billion, is targeted for completion in May 2010.

The Northrail–Southrail Linkage Project (Caloocan-Alabang), which refers to the Philippine National Railways (PNR) South Manila Commuter Railways, runs from Caloocan City to Alabang, Muntinlupa. The project, which was started in 2007, is already 45 percent complete. Inauguration is expected in 2010. The project seeks to rehabilitate a 34-kilometer commuter rail line.

This project will also pave the way for the completion of the whole stretch of the old PNR South Commuter Railway form Caloocan to Calamba (56-kilometer railway). So far, 75 percent of the informal settlers along the railway track (around 25,000 out of more than 34,000 families) have been relocated. The project cost is about US$ 50.42 million funded by the Korean Export-Import Bank (KEXIM).

For the proposed MRT 7 (North Avenue-Commonwealth-Quirino (Novaliches)-San Jose Del Monte) Project, the Build-Gradual Transfer-Operate-Maintain (BGTOM) contract for the 23-kilometer, US$ 1.235-billion rail and road project was signed on June 18, 2008 between the DOTC and Universal LRT Corporation (ULC).

The private proponent ULC is now in the process of securing financial investors for the mega project, which it expects to attain within 18 months upon contract signing. Construction is targeted to start in early 2010.

The DOTC will continue to improve railway operations and will pursue railway development programs in areas of expansion, extension, rehabilitation, construction and development of new railway lines.

ROAD TRANSPORTATION

The year 2009 was a challenging year for the road transportation sector. The prices of fossil fuels in the world market escalated until THE third quarter of the year. There was also a greater concern on climate change where smoke emission from motor vehicles is one of the factors. Road safety concerns grew as the World Health Organization (WHO) cited that road accident is one of the leading causes of death worldwide.

The Philippine government and the DOTC formulated and implemented programs and projects to ease the impact of the unabated increase in fuel prices, lessen motor vehicle emission, and mitigate road accidents.

The transport sector accounts for about 25 percent of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Thus, the DOTC has encouraged public transport operators to use alternative fuels and convert their units to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)–fed engines. To date, the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) had approved a total of 17,545 taxi units.

COMMUNICATIONS

Communications is vital to nation-building. It links people all over the country and the world with one another in real time. This allow economic activities to grow because of the high speed connectivity and exchange of information which is very essential in improving the quality of products and services.

In the Philippines, broadband service looms to be the next growth area for telecommunications companies which have started offering their broadband services to the public. The country, in fact, is ready for a broadband explosion as the fundamentals appear sound to propel the country to the ranks of Asian countries that have embraced broadband technology.

MARITIME TRANSPORT

The maritime transport is vital in the country’s economic buildup. Majority of trade and commerce are carried by sea carriage owing to the archipelagic naure of the country.

Thus, to connect the islands, the government has implemented the Roll-On/Roll-Off Transport Systems (RRTS) or the Strong Republic Nautical Highways (SRNH).

The DOTC, through its sectoral agencies, will secure the compliance with the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention and the International Ship and Port Security Code.

President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is expected to sign soon the new Coast Guard Law that would delineate the overlapping functions of the Philippine Coast Guard, Maritime Industry Authority and other agencies regulating the maritime industry.

TRANSPORTATION SECURITY

The Office for Transportation Security (OTS) has the following major accomplishments:

–The neutralization and apprehension, in coordination with elements of the PNP-Police Regional Office 9, of the Abu Sayyaf Group subleader Usamn Asari at the vicinity of Zamboanga City wharf on January 11, 2009.

–The OTS has processed and screened a total of 45,288,577 outbound passengers for 137,291 international and domestic flights, as well as 1,018,722,523 kilograms of air cargo and 45,872,891 pieces of check-in luggage.

–It has conducted 34 inspection audits and surveys of airports, security scanning equipment and personnel; noted and referred to concerned agencies for appropriate action 28 aviation security violations; and conducted verification and audit of 81 ships and 57 ports. Out of this number, 23 ports and 56 ships were approved for the issuance/renewal of Statement of Compliance of a Port Facility (SCPF) and International Ship Security Certificate/National Ship Security Certificate (ISSC/NSSC), respectively.

–It has enhanced security control measures at the different airports through the acquisition/installation of 17 X-ray machines, gas masks, binoculars and vision goggles. (PNA Features) scs/LBV

Caraga producers get P305 M in local sales

By MIKE U. CRISMUNDOJanuary 5, 2010, 3:13pm

BUTUAN CITY – Producers in the Caraga Region earned some P305 million in sales from their participation in various marketing activities facilitated by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) for the first 11 months last year.

The marketing unit of the DTI-Caraga’s Business Development Division is confident the final figure will approximate that of 2008 at P378 million as soon as more reports come in.

According to the DTI, trade sales went to some 34 producers who joined the agency’s national, regional and provincial trade fairs, inbound and outbound selling missions, market matching activities, maintenance of trade houses and “pasalubong” centers.

Producers from Surigao del Norte including Surigao City got the biggest share with P113.93 million in sales, followed by those from Surigao del Sur (including the cities of Bislig and Tandag) with P88 million.

Agusan del Sur including Bayugan City sellers also got P67.53 million in sales while P35.77 was generated by Agusan del Norte including this region’s capital city of Butuan.

Among the Caraga products sold were processed food items, gifts, home decors made from wood, coco beads, nito, romblon, agsam, tikog, fashion accessories and wooden furniture.

The region's products have continually inched their way to new markets owing to continued efforts in product development to ensure that the region’s products are competitive in terms of design, functionality and pricing, the DTI said.

Activities for enhancing packaging and labeling especially for food products were likewise done as buyers get more enticed to attractive product packaging.

“Our own products here are already picking up in the market and seen to add more sales this year,” said DTI-Caraga Regional Director Brielgo O. Pagaran.

Caraga Region products displayed at various trade fairs in the country are being noted as one of most saleable products in the country today


CONGRATS!:banana:

at least ni angat na ang atong region bisan pa man sa kalisod sa panahon. Despite from the fact that our region is the youngest region in PI but still getting on the ladder. Hope Caraga will focus to promote the tourist spots... daku jud ni og kausaban sa region if this will be realized same with Bohol nga grabe ang pag angat sa ilang tourism.

really great! hope almont would make some improvements sa ila beach area.


Comment ko lang base sa nakita nako sa pictures:

1. I don't like the idea na rough an ila floor sa room bagan waya mag compliment sa concept nan isa ka resort.

2. Sayang an shore-line na jaoy concrete dapat buhangin gajud without sea wall tapos white sand unta bisan kon tambak ra.

3. An mga cottages looks very ordinary (I hope for the time being ra jaon while ongoing pa an ila renovation)

4. I hope makakita ako nan motor motor sa dagat na mag parking sa baybay :lol: sanan baruto na mag gujod nan dako na tabanog amora nan pajong na pwede mo kumbabit :lol: you know guys what I mean!

Amo ra :) salamat!

MANILA, Philippines -- The League of Cities of the Philippines (LCP) convened on Tuesday in Manila and filed their appeal on a decision by the Supreme Court upholding the legislated cityhood of 16 municipalities in the country.

LCP president and Mandaluyong City Mayor Benhur Abalos expressed alarm over the Supreme Court’s decision, which he claimed would make a bad precedent and cause the reopening of cases, which had been decided with finality.

The LCP filed on Tuesday an appeal to the Supreme Court asking the judicial body to uphold its first ruling, which declared the 16 cityhood laws unconstitutional.

In a statement read during an emergency meeting of the LCP at the Manila Pavilion Hotel, Abalos said that the mayors belonging to the organization were “very surprised and extremely disappointed that a final and executory judgment of the Supreme Court was still altered and completely reversed.”

He warned that the reversal of the decision would disturb the well-established legal principle on the finality of a judgment rendered by the Supreme Court.

“As Filipino citizens and local chief executives who have put their faith in the judicial system, the final judgment of the court of November 2008 must be defended from the partisan tactics employed by the municipalities,” Abalos stated.

The Mandaluyong mayor stressed that these legal reversals could erode the people’s faith in the judiciary and result in the mass lay-off of employees in the legally constituted cities.

“We can now just reopen cases. Everyone can do that now,” he warned.

Abalos explained that under the salary standardization law, local government units have been required to raise the salaries of its employees. With the conversion of the 16 municipalities into cities, the internal revenue allotments (IRA) of all cities -- or the cities’ shares in national tax collections -- have been drastically reduced, because total tax collections have not really grown significantly over the years to accommodate new cities.

Mandaluyong City, he pointed out, lost P54 million of its IRA because of the conversion into cities of the following 16 municipalities: Baybay in Leyte; Bogo, Carcar, and Naga in Cebu; Catbalogan in Western Samar; Tandag in Surigao del Sur; Borongan in Eastern Samar; Tayabas in Quezon; Lamitan in Basilan; Tabuk in Kalinga; Bayugan in Agusan del Sur; Batac in Ilocos Norte; Mati in Davao Oriental; Guihulngan in Negros Oriental; Cabadbaran in Agusan del Norte; and El Salvador in Misamis Oriental.

All 120 LCP member-cities, he said, lost large parts of their respective IRAs because of the conversion, which came about during the 13th Congress.

Abalos explained that instead of the IRA going to services, local governments would be forced to cut down on infrastructure projects to be able to pay off the salary increases due government employees

How much IRA does Surigao City get? Kalooy sab sa mga empleyeado kay en vez of getting a raise, mo-ubos hinoon an ila sweldo. Na-iton na, mismo iton supreme court corrupted sab. Sin-o pa may tuho-an?

Cityhood eyed for Taytay, Cainta towns

RIZAL GOV. Casimiro Ynares III has said he would push for the conversion of Taytay and Cainta towns into cities within the year in the wake of a Supreme Court decision favoring the conversion of 16 municipalities into cities despite not meeting the income requirement.

He said he would back the application of the two towns, noting that they actually meet the annual income requirement of P100 million.

But Ynares said the application for cityhood of the two cities would also depend on the outcome of the local elections, assuming that the elected representatives and executives would favor it.

He added that he respected the decision of the Supreme Court that reversed its previous ruling declaring as unconstitutional the cityhood of 16 municipalities because they did not meet the income requirement.

The towns were Batac, Ilocos Norte; Baybay, Leyte; Bayuga, Agusan del Sur; Bago, Cebu; Borongan, Eastern Samar; Cabadbaran, Agusan del Norte; Carcar, Cebu; Catbalogan, Samar; El Salvador, Misamis Oriental; Guihulngan, Negros Oriental; Lamitan, Basilan; Mati, Davao Oriental; Naga, Cebu; Tabuk, Kalinga; Tandag, Surigao del Sur; and Tayabas, Quezon.

Based on government records, the towns generated incomes ranging from only P7.5 million (Lamitan town) to P56 million (Naga town).

Should the cityhood application fail, Ynares said he would push for the redistricting of the province to give it more representation in Congress and consequently more funds for local projects.

Based on the initial proposal, two districts will be added to the current four districts. (Antipolo City has two districts.)

Ynares said the first district would be composed of Taytay and Cainta; Angono, Binangonan and Cardona would make up the second district; the third district would be composed of San Mateo and Montalban while the remaining towns would make up the fourth district.

We should also file for the conversion of Bad-as and Magpayang to component cities kay medyo bibo bagan jaon duha ka barrio, amo amo ra man bagan nan siyudad:). We'll send the proposals to the supreme court ( note no caps coz they don't deserve it) just to poke fun at the system.

1. I don't like the idea na rough an ila floor sa room bagan waya mag compliment sa concept nan isa ka resort.

Mao- mao ra gyud na sa Tavern ug Gateway and I would not expect too much from a 1 or 2 star accommodation.

2. Sayang an shore-line na jaoy concrete dapat buhangin gajud without sea wall tapos white sand unta bisan kon tambak ra.

That part is quite deep. Dili man gud ni kon natural beach. Lisod na koreksiyunan an ato mga ninono kay walay panhibaw-anan sa ato environment. I will give them credit for hauling the sand and putting it on the rivers edge- pero kon ato huna huna-on iton suba did-on sigue nagaduyog. Magkadugay ma-anas ra gajud. Even a kid knows that. Pero hala, tagha-od nila sa Ternate- Puerto Azul which was a completely fake beach. That place today is a piece of junk. Imagine the sea wall did not even work. And I would not swim on that beach considering na daghan kaayo ang mga eskwater diha a few meters upstream with no sanitary toilets. Di lang kung torpedo ang ma-encounter mo kundi mga surface to surface missiles. Good luck to whoever decides to swim here.

I don't know the numbers but my take on this is the runway will definitely cost more vis-a-vis overpass. I like to see that overpass built so feeling jaon kaw sa Quiapo or have that big city feel.;)

Nickel miner allowed to start operations on Dinagat Island

The Environment department’s Mines bureau has approved the mining plan of listed Century Peak Metals Holdings Corp., allowing the miner to start putting up a nickel mine in northeastern Mindanao.

In an order dated Dec. 23, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau said:

“Century Peak is henceforth authorized to proceed to the development and operating periods ... including the extraction and commercial disposition of nickel ore and associated minerals within the contract area.”

In the first stage of operation that will begin this year, the miner will produce 5,000-10,000 metric tons (MT) of nickel per year from its 4,000-hectare nickel property in the province of Dinagat Island. It will be doubled to 20,000 MT per year under full-scale operations.

The miner will invest P2 billion and $150 million for the first and second phases, respectively.

In November, the miner signed a deal for United Kingdom-based Gem Global Yield Fund, Ltd. and Global Emerging Markets Investment Advisors, Inc. to put in as much as P2.9 billion.

In April last year, Century Peak filed the declaration of mining project feasibility, which required an environmental compliance certificate, the final exploration report, an environmental protection program, a final mine rehabilitation and decommissioning plan, and a social development program.

An 86-hectare area has total resources of 11.900 million wet MT of nickel ore, enough to sustain the company’s operations for at least 10 years.

Aside from nickel mining, Century Peak will put up a processing plant with Century Hua Guang Smelting, Inc., where the miner has a 55% stake. -- Neil Jerome C. Morales

That's not much. Gamay ra kaayo. And walay cost of living raise? Taking into consideration the high inflation costs, this is a nail in the coffin for so many city employees. :ohno:

The employees just received notices of their respective step increment in their salaries. this is done every 3 years of service. So may increase gihapon as mandated by law. but then to fund this increare in salaries, mugamay an fund for the social services and infra, as the LCP has pointed out.

I don't know the numbers but my take on this is the runway will definitely cost more vis-a-vis overpass. I like to see that overpass built so feeling jaon kaw sa Quiapo or have that big city feel.;)

Ing-ana gajud, it will be a chokepoint for traffic.

actually, daan na may objections when the overpass was proposed but the dpwh proceeded with it including bididng it out and awarding it. in fact the present site is not the original porposed site kay an original didto man atubangan sa Caraga hospital but this was shot down after it was pointed out that it would result to difficulties in entering and exiting form the hospital. ugsa tag iswag jaon kuman.

An jaon naghuya sa bukid, informal settlers but the ones on the other side are not.

sa ako lang, dili importante kung city or municipality or barangay ang usa ka lugar as long as makita sa mga panimalay sa nag puyo ana nga lugar ang kaginhawaan sa kinabuhi..

the ultimate barometer sa development mao ang mga nagpuyo sa maong lugar, kung puro nag lisod na di na developed, pero kung hayahay ang pamuyo na developed na sya nga lugar.....:banana:

Sir, meaning nag salig ra gajud an city sa IRA? hat kalooy sab :bash: uno may taghimo ni Ponso as local executive sa pila nija ka termino?

Agree jud ko sa imong gi quote Kuya Rally nga instead of having that pedestrian, didto nalang unta nila ihapak ang budget sa lain project like infra or the runway extension nga daku pa kaayong tabang... or relocation area para sa mga shanties nga naa nag puyo diha sa may blvd. Pero unsaon man nga naa naman mubarugay na...

This is just my personal opinion. I am not aware of the politics involved in the overpass project. I am seeing this as a neutral party ( I am not a voter of the city and the 2nd Congressional district).

I am passing the main road everyday. That part of the highway from that part they called "traffic" until Ferdinand street is a chokepoint specially during rush hours. The cause is that so many pedestrians are crossing that part coming from and going to Caraga Regional Hospital esp. that pharmacies are located in front. Also, elementary school children from CV Diez Elementary School are crossing that very busy street everyday. I always put my feet on the brakes everytime I pass that part. Lastly so many people are crossing that street because of Panadero Bakery (their breads are delicious) and those betting at the lotto station beside it.

The point is, that road is very busy. An overpass might somehow minimize the pedestrians crossing that area.

Again my two cents worth and if ever I am amenable to the overpass, it does not mean I am favoring a certain politician.

In my opinion tagtujo ton ni Romarate kay mag election man lagi kay para jaoy ka bitayan or kasuyatan nan ija ngayan with matching "A PROJECT OF CONG. ROMARATE PARA SA MGA PINALANGGANG SURIGAONON" :lol:

Extension rakan tana sa runway jaon na project noh?..daku pay silbi.. sanan

its one of his frustrations actually. he had targeted a 60-40 ratio between the IRA and local revenues but this was not achieved. mataas na storyahon the reason for this cause a lot factors are involved.

If you have been following the surigao city forum previously (whihc i think you did:)), there was thread there about the job orders who have taken much away from the benefits of the regular. a reduction (take note, not elimination) of just 50% of the JOs would go a long long way but then again its election year so i dont think thats happening.

Anyway, the IRA dependence phenomenon is not unique to Surigao City, except for a handful of HUCs, the rest of LGUs nationwide are dependent on IRA. Even the new 16 cities/municipalities are banking on the increase of their IRA to spur development.

we share same sentiments on this, dili ra sa pagkakuman ato hunahunaon,sa sunod na lumalabay na panahon..they must create an ideal overpass for that, if pwede tangtangon jaon mga squatters diha sa may bukid, buhaton..magriprap dajun na side meaning kubkuban jaon na part, silbe dha rakan muextend gamay para dili karajaw sikit an overpass sa dayan..magfence dajun on that sides of the road para magamit jud an overpass.:ohno::)

Lets assume for the sake of discussion you are correct about the heavy volume of pedestrian there. do you think this people will not anymore cross the highway right away but instead go to and climb the overpass to cross? Im willing to bet that this would never happen unless they toally prohibit crossing in this area other than the overpass which means installing fences in the middle of the highway, whihc in turn will congest the already congested highway.

AS iv said before, this was not given a thorough study. its like the traffic lights of the barbers, its now useless. its hihg impact projects designed for the elections with no thought poured in about its sustainability or effectiveness. its a waste of money and thats where my beef is.

although if i were the lce, i would not oppose it but let them continue with the project just to let them realize later on the waste that was done.:)

Isn't the highway 4 lanes already with 2 shoulders on each side? Why not install a working traffic light here? Build fences along the sidewalks to keep pedestrians from crossing other than the designated crossing lanes close to the traffic light. Medyo bubarato compared to an overpass. This worked in Manila and other big cities and I don't see any reason why it should not work here. Now, if the main intention of building an overpass is to keep the traffic flow constant, road-sidewalk fences are still necessary to keep pedestrians from jaywalking.

And I know medyo may kamahalan but did anyone suggest an underpass instead of an overpass? This can actually be built diagonally from Bonotan's side and come up close to the main entry of Caraga Hosp. or they can build one with multiple entrances and exits, perhaps another one will exit at Vasquez St.

The employees just received notices of their respective step increment in their salaries. this is done every 3 years of service. So may increase gihapon as mandated by law. but then to fund this increare in salaries, mugamay an fund for the social services and infra, as the LCP has pointed out.

Sweet. I would not expect IRA changes to impact the budget immediately but rather a couple of years from now.

Ceremonial Signing of RA 9854 Creating Caraga State University by President Arroyo

President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo signed today RA 9854, "An Act Establishing the Caraga State University in the Caraga Region by Integrating the Northern Mindanao State Institute of Science and Technology (Normisist) in Ampayon, Butuan City which was approved by the President on December 16, 2009.

House Bill 5110 established the Caraga State University (CSU) in the Caraga Region by integrating the Northern Mindanao State Institute of Science and Technology (NORMISIST) in Ampayon and the Northern Mindanao College of Science and Technology (NMCAST) in Cabadbaran, Agusan del Norte with its main campus in Butuan City.

NMCAST which is now known as the NORMISIST Cabadbaran Campus NCC specializing in developing individuals in the fields of electrical engineering, industrial technology and education, information technology, HRM and Teacher’s Education with its campus situated in an 8 hectare area at T. Curato Street in Cabadbaran City.

The bill was filed in Congress by Representative Jose S. Aquino II of the 1st District of Butuan City and Las Nieves, Agusan del Norte and sponsored by Senator Mar Roxas and has passed in the Senate’s second reading on November 2009.

Other representatives of the lower house who co-authored the bill are Congressmen Angara, Villar, Lagman, Javier, Remulla, Amante, Romarate, Padilla, Madrona, Nicolas, del Mar, Amatong, Mitra, de Guzman, Garay and Angping.

According to the new law, Caraga State University shall offer undergraduate and graduate courses within its areas of specialization, specifically, but not limited to the fields of agriculture and environmental studies, fishery, engineering, forestry, industrial technology, education, law, medicine and other health related programs, information technology, arts and sciences and other fields as the Board of Regents may deem necessary to carry out its objectives particularly to meet the needs of the Caraga Region.

After the ceremonial signing of RA 9854, President Arroyo in her speech said, “Unta sa panghitabo sa karon nga ang inyong eskwelahan nahimo nang Caraga State University, nga unta labaw pa ang kalidad ug investment ang inyong maangkon ug mao nga makaabot ninyo ang daghan pang kauswagan dinhi sa Caraga” (now that your school became the Caraga State University, it is hoped that you obtain higher quality and more investments will be achieved, that will make Caraga more progressive).

NORMISIST, now Caraga State University has been applying for state university since 1996.

^^ So this would mean CSU specialty branches in Surigao for Fisheries, Marine/ Deep Sea Mgnt in Dapa, Forestry in Tandag, Industrial Mgnt in Bislig, Agriculture in Bayugan down the line? Considering na state university ini, they will be in direct competition to state colleges in Surigao Norte and Sur, with better advantage since tuition is cheap or even free due to national funding. I can't wait to read its charter, if ever drafted already kay bagan tagdali-dali ini before the elections to get more votes for the administration ticket.

Nope its still 2 lanes brick. that sidewalk pedestrian fence might just work.

Amo ba ral. For discussions sake, same thing was said of underpasses around Manila. But they kept building more around the metro. Since bukid- bukid man jaon na area sa hospital and since historically, bagan spared man jaon sa baha because of its elevation, I still think it is not a bad idea if planned and engineered well. Like I said, mahal lamang.

they should work it out..way impossible ton..:):)

i also observed once youll create an overpass you must first clear and make a walkway on both sides with fence to make it walkable to public up to pastoral center road.if the govenment is serious enough in making the rizal street into four lanes, pwede pa oi and impose no parking on both sides! this is a national highway man sad gud..hawanan ton mga squatters jaon sa mga kilid nan bukid, plant more trees and walah! thats it!:bash:

ay punto mu gajud na laag mike hu.:)

bagan nalooy ako kuman sa caraga. hamok tood na syudad pero do they really look like a city? laong pa nila pag tong-tong nan alas 6 mingaw na, waya man gani mga suga bagan aninipot ra. ay ay sab. the declaration of these cities in the region shows kung uno jud ta ka pordoy para nako. lahi man gud ang message nga ato tagbandera. kung suhito ka sa lugar you would really surprise nga city d ay siya. lahi ang mensahe nga ato gipadala. bagan sajop jud. anyway, that's only my opinion.

korek, and there is nobody to blame but the politicians and our political system who made all this mess possible :ohno:

actually, daan na may objections when the overpass was proposed but the dpwh proceeded with it including bididng it out and awarding it. in fact the present site is not the original porposed site kay an original didto man atubangan sa Caraga hospital but this was shot down after it was pointed out that it would result to difficulties in entering and exiting form the hospital. ugsa tag iswag jaon kuman.


this is a concrete case of how the process of arriving at the social acceptability aspect of a project is practically railroaded if not outright discarded. to think that social acceptance is even an integral component before one can get an ECC. they have an ECC daw and even a brgy. resolution to support the project then how come there are residents protesting??? :lol:

that area of the highway is suppose to be 30 meters wide up to checkpoint, and beyond that 60 meters. why plan an overpass expanding only for the present road width of 17 meters??

Good observations Mike, sounds positive particularly from private sector developments.....wake up LGU! uno may naka line up na project sa side nan gobyerno?

LGU has no projects to announce until elections are over :nuts:

2010 One Stop Processing of Business Permits Opens
at Tuesday, January 5, 2010


Mayor Pons formally opened the One-Stop-Shop processing of business permits at exactly 8:00 o’clock in the morning of January 4, 2010.

The venue for the permit processing is the Surigao City Auditorium and is expected to cater to the businessmen of the city at the most expeditious manner.

For the last four years, the average processing time has been maintained at the level of less than 2 and a half hour and the same is seen to be achieved this year or even better.

The first 10 businessmen who were issued their respective business permits were honored in simple rites at the office of the City Mayor immediately after the Mayor signed the permits in their presence.

As announced, the processing of the permits will continue until midnight of January 25, 2010. (surigaocity.gov.ph)

i hope they will collect more this year. from what i gathered, the city's collection efficiency in business licenses last year is very low at less than 70%. it seems the people at CTO are very lax in their tax campaigns that even a popular resto bar hangout near a radio station with live band prominently functioning in surigao for several years turned out to be operating without a business permit. what the f*ck! this bar even has a regular radio ad and streamer announcing their operation and yet no business permit?? :bash:

MANILA, Philippines—Hers was a campus life spent mostly at late night parties and drinking sprees, waking up the next day with a nasty hangover. Still, she got good grades.

Kemberly Jul Luna’s binges seemed normal for someone studying at a state university, living alone but often surrounded by friends drawn by her natural charm and intelligence, who fondly called her “Kimay.”

The 21-year-old Kemberly, however, traded her little comforts for the cold and the unknown world in the mountains of Bukidnon. There, her small joys and miseries were easily swallowed up by the people’s wretchedness; it became easy for her to redeem herself from old habits that were slowly causing her decay.

She was doing well with the peasants of Bukidnon, her friends thought, until that fateful day when a bullet pierced her right breast and went through her nape in Sitio Bulacao, Barangay Concepcion, City of Valencia. It was 10 days before Christmas.

Gun battle lasted for days

Army Maj. Michelle Anayron, spokesperson of the 4th Infantry Division, said Kemberly was killed in an encounter with soldiers belonging to the 8th Infantry Battalion.

“The soldiers were on foot patrol when they chanced upon the NPA encampment,” Anayron said. The gun battle, which started at 10 a.m., lasted for days, he added.

Kemberly died a member of the communist New People’s Army (NPA). She was Adriane, Joshua, or Ma’am Nurse to the people she had worked with in the highlands.

Her body, already rotting, was found dumped, along with seven other guerrillas, deep in the forest of Concepcion, days after the Dec. 15 encounter.

Kemberly was an AB English student at Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) before she joined the communist movement in early 2009.

A mix of charm, bravery

Mark Jason Tan Cesar, spokesperson of the Student Alliance for the Advancement of Democratic Rights (Stand-MSU-IIT), remembers Kemberly as a merry mixture of charm and bravery.

“She was really beautiful and surprisingly brave and determined. She was not scared to speak her mind out. She was a risk-taker,” Cesar said of Kemberly, a former ad hoc chair of the university’s student opposition party.

Kemberly was popular on campus not only because of her physical attributes and intelligence, but also because of her flair for music and dance. She was once a member of the university’s cultural dance group Kalimulan.

She was doing well in her studies. She was a high school valedictorian back in her hometown of Tubod, Surigao del Norte.

“But her ultimate dream was to serve the people—the poor … the masses,” Cesar said.

Friendster account

In her Friendster account “shoutout” last updated on Dec. 12, 2008, Kemberly quoted Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong: “It is man’s social being that determines his thinking—once the correct ideas and characteristics of the advanced class are grasped by the masses, these ideas turn into a material force which changes society and the world.”

Her heart for the poor and the oppressed could have been influenced by her involvement with the Catholic Center Campus Ministry as a leader of its educational committee.

“There, amidst the daily Masses, boarding house meetings and other activities, she concluded that faith without action is dead. She always sought ways to show that her Christian faith will not be confined to empty words and prayers, but will be brought out to the real world and be coupled with relevant action based on concrete conditions,” said a statement by Stand-MSU-IIT.

“She believed that faith should not be a lifeless dogma. She believed that just like Jesus, one must bring faith to serving the people—without thought of oneself. And just like Jesus, to die in service of the poor and oppressed,” the group added.

Political awakening

But even when she was active with the ministry, she still lived a happy-go-lucky life. Not that she was not serious in her involvement, but because she was not really that “politically awakened.”

Kemberly’s ministry work helped her see the realities surrounding the poor and the oppressed, but her political maturity started when she became involved with the League of Filipino Students (LFS). She joined the militant group in February 2008.

“Kimay’s remolding inside the LFS was different. It was so fast that it surprised many of those who knew her. The drinking and the parties were replaced by her attendance at meetings and discussions on the political situation in the country,” said Gary Ben Villocino, LFS MSU-IIT chair.

“Inside the organization, she was able to realize many things and most of her time she already devoted to going to communities and living with the people. And we were all surprised that the things that she used to do she suddenly was not doing … no more nights out and drinks for her,” he said.

Her exposure to the plight of the poor and victims of human rights violations took a more serious turn when she joined the National Interfaith Humanitarian Mission in October.

Her decision came shortly after fresh fighting broke out between government soldiers and Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) rebels following the failed signing of a memorandum of agreement on ancestral domain (MOA-AD).

Opposition to US presence

“She was part of the local secretariat and headed the area preparation committee in Poona Piagapo, one of the target municipalities for the mission. Daring as always, Kimay did not hesitate entering the war-torn village of Tagoranao to uncover the effects of indiscriminate aerial bombing and militarization in the area,” Villocino said.

Kemberly also convinced one of the victims to testify on what had happened in the conflict areas in Lanao, Villocino said.

She became active in opposing the government’s war policy and the intervention and presence of American troops in farmers’ and Moro communities in Mindanao.

“Kemberly was a very good example to her comrades and to the people around her. She showed youthful fervor and gave her heart to everything she did inside the organization,” Villocino said.

Helping peasants big time

During the second semester of 2008, Kemberly informed her friends that she was resigning from Stand-MSU-IIT for a full-time work organizing peasants with Kasama-Bukidnon.

“There was no stopping her,” Cesar said.

And in January last year, after a short Christmas visit to her family, she went straight to Bukidnon.

“In August 2009, we received a letter from her saying that she left Kasama-Bukidnon, but did not say where she went to and that she was happy where she was at that time, and that she had learned to love the peasant masses more with each day she lived with them,” Villocino said.

Kemberly, he said, shared her experiences with the communities “from helping the peasants harvest corn to teaching them to read and write and do a little arithmetic, since literacy in the area is extremely low.”

“She was also known to the people in the community as a health worker, often called as Ma’am Nurse,” Villocino said.

For the LFS, Kemberly died an honorable death.

“She died because she fought for what she believes in until the very last minute of her life. She chose the path of armed struggle, firmly believing that there is no greater form of struggle to advance the interests of the toiling masses,” the group said.

Facebook notes

A Facebook note on her death is filled with comments that both honored her and her war—both from people who knew her and also for those who believed in what she fought for.

“It’s painful to know that yet another freedom fighter has fallen while fighting for the people. But no matter how painful this is, I will not shed a tear because there is time for that. And it is history that will end the chain of bullets … and as we grieve, we continue the struggle toward victory,” one said.

Another said: “She has not died. She will continue to live among us who relentlessly continue the revolution.”

And still another said that the blood of Kemberly “will nurture the burning passion in us to serve the poor and the oppressed.”

She was doing well in her studies. She was a high school valedictorian back in her hometown of Tubod, Surigao del Norte.

“But her ultimate dream was to serve the people—the poor … the masses,” Cesar said.

Friendster account

In her Friendster account “shoutout” last updated on Dec. 12, 2008, Kemberly quoted Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong: “It is man’s social being that determines his thinking—once the correct ideas and characteristics of the advanced class are grasped by the masses, these ideas turn into a material force which changes society and the world.”

Her heart for the poor and the oppressed could have been influenced by her involvement with the Catholic Center Campus Ministry as a leader of its educational committee.

“There, amidst the daily Masses, boarding house meetings and other activities, she concluded that faith without action is dead. She always sought ways to show that her Christian faith will not be confined to empty words and prayers, but will be brought out to the real world and be coupled with relevant action based on concrete conditions,” said a statement by Stand-MSU-IIT.

“She believed that faith should not be a lifeless dogma. She believed that just like Jesus, one must bring faith to serving the people—without thought of oneself. And just like Jesus, to die in service of the poor and oppressed,” the group added.

Political awakening

But even when she was active with the ministry, she still lived a happy-go-lucky life. Not that she was not serious in her involvement, but because she was not really that “politically awakened.”

Kemberly’s ministry work helped her see the realities surrounding the poor and the oppressed, but her political maturity started when she became involved with the League of Filipino Students (LFS). She joined the militant group in February 2008.

“Kimay’s remolding inside the LFS was different. It was so fast that it surprised many of those who knew her. The drinking and the parties were replaced by her attendance at meetings and discussions on the political situation in the country,” said Gary Ben Villocino, LFS MSU-IIT chair.

“Inside the organization, she was able to realize many things and most of her time she already devoted to going to communities and living with the people. And we were all surprised that the things that she used to do she suddenly was not doing … no more nights out and drinks for her,” he said.

Her exposure to the plight of the poor and victims of human rights violations took a more serious turn when she joined the National Interfaith Humanitarian Mission in October.

Her decision came shortly after fresh fighting broke out between government soldiers and Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) rebels following the failed signing of a memorandum of agreement on ancestral domain (MOA-AD).

Opposition to US presence

“She was part of the local secretariat and headed the area preparation committee in Poona Piagapo, one of the target municipalities for the mission. Daring as always, Kimay did not hesitate entering the war-torn village of Tagoranao to uncover the effects of indiscriminate aerial bombing and militarization in the area,” Villocino said.

Kemberly also convinced one of the victims to testify on what had happened in the conflict areas in Lanao, Villocino said.

She became active in opposing the government’s war policy and the intervention and presence of American troops in farmers’ and Moro communities in Mindanao.

“Kemberly was a very good example to her comrades and to the people around her. She showed youthful fervor and gave her heart to everything she did inside the organization,” Villocino said.

Helping peasants big time

During the second semester of 2008, Kemberly informed her friends that she was resigning from Stand-MSU-IIT for a full-time work organizing peasants with Kasama-Bukidnon.

“There was no stopping her,” Cesar said.

And in January last year, after a short Christmas visit to her family, she went straight to Bukidnon.

“In August 2009, we received a letter from her saying that she left Kasama-Bukidnon, but did not say where she went to and that she was happy where she was at that time, and that she had learned to love the peasant masses more with each day she lived with them,” Villocino said.

Kemberly, he said, shared her experiences with the communities “from helping the peasants harvest corn to teaching them to read and write and do a little arithmetic, since literacy in the area is extremely low.”

“She was also known to the people in the community as a health worker, often called as Ma’am Nurse,” Villocino said.

For the LFS, Kemberly died an honorable death.

“She died because she fought for what she believes in until the very last minute of her life. She chose the path of armed struggle, firmly believing that there is no greater form of struggle to advance the interests of the toiling masses,” the group said.

Facebook notes

A Facebook note on her death is filled with comments that both honored her and her war—both from people who knew her and also for those who believed in what she fought for.

“It’s painful to know that yet another freedom fighter has fallen while fighting for the people. But no matter how painful this is, I will not shed a tear because there is time for that. And it is history that will end the chain of bullets … and as we grieve, we continue the struggle toward victory,” one said.

Another said: “She has not died. She will continue to live among us who relentlessly continue the revolution.”

And still another said that the blood of Kemberly “will nurture the burning passion in us to serve the poor and the oppressed.”

another shocking event for all tuboranon. i dont personaly knw her but kaila me sa ija parents. even her parents were shocked upon knowing sa kalihukan sa ila bata. bantog ra daw dili mohatag sa iya exact address.

duha ang namatay sa tubod nga mga batan-on pa na nakapatingala ug nagpabilin nga talinghaga sa mga panumduman sa mga tuboranon kung unsa ang tinood nga mga rason. una si ms. luna then that OFW na tag murder sa Austria. tana mopahulay na sila sa dayun.

Dili and Janex resto bar amuy way business permit for 2009.:nuts: inday kuman kay mulukat na daw, pabayron unta nan delinquency plus penalties and surcharges for 2009.

Jaon ausie bar nag operate na but way ako kamang ka-agan ton. :)


ehemmmm, sure kaw sir yay imo kamangka-agan? :lol:

bitaw napansin ra nako the other day sa dihang nagbayad ko sa bill namo sa surneco

sayang nga lang...ang aga niyang namatay....:ohno:

tood sir ral, na remember na nimo kung uno na gasoline station an mo open dapit sa SMWD?

what's the latest buzz sir about citihardware and davao central?

private local company sila pero they will get their supply daw from jetti. Waya sila musugot sa Shell and opted to be an independent gasoline station carrying no particular brand. at the moment their contract is with jetti to supply them with the fuel.

nahilum naman an citihardware. basin palabay anay nan election.

Nope but si Villager siguro because he is from the same town.

Uman villager kilaya mo ini?

kwaya ako kakita ini na bata sir, pero kilaya ako sa ija parents. silingan ra kami nan barangay unlike kang romalyn adton OFW na tag murder kay barkada ko gajud adto since high school pa.

i hope they will collect more this year. from what i gathered, the city's collection efficiency in business licenses last year is very low at less than 70%. it seems the people at CTO are very lax in their tax campaigns that even a popular resto bar hangout near a radio station with live band prominently functioning in surigao for several years turned out to be operating without a business permit. what the f*ck! this bar even has a regular radio ad and streamer announcing their operation and yet no business permit?? :bash:

2od, na controversial naman noon ang overpass project ni cong. romarate. hamok man nag protest. para sab nako, dili man importante na nga project, although it is better than the barbers arc kay at least iton overpass maagian man nan tawo kay sa mga arko ni barbers nga tabili ray maglatay-latay.


the arc is indeed a nonsense project. :ohno:

this one if the demand or necessity is justified then it is ok. but the way i see it, this is just another arc put in the guise of a pedestrian overpass. the bottom line is their need to put something in the middle of the street with their names on it :lol:

same dog different collar :banana:

Me, i knw her because she's my cousin... untana hunungon n sa uban ang mga negative write ups bout her kay wala na sya na maka defend sa iyang kaugalingon... We will respect her and her family nalang. basta she's mabait and friendly to everybody... She has brain and beauty.

they should work it out..way impossible ton..:):)

i also observed once youll create an overpass you must first clear and make a walkway on both sides with fence to make it walkable to public up to pastoral center road.if the govenment is serious enough in making the rizal street into four lanes, pwede pa oi and impose no parking on both sides! this is a national highway man sad gud..hawanan ton mga squatters jaon sa mga kilid nan bukid, plant more trees and walah! thats it!:bash:


Uno may gajud itsura nan inin overpass? Seems like the plan is hush hush to the public. Bagan this is another spur of the moment plan without intense study to alternative ways to decongest the area. Is this overpass feasible in 25, 50 years or so? What happens con iton Caraga Hospital decides to open another campus somewhere effectively reducing the number of patients at its current location? What happens if the hospital loses its patients to another better hospital built outside of the city? The overpass may end up like a blighted structure kon dili long term an ija gamit.

In this case, they should not build this at all.
