I've talked to the agent of Palexpress in Calbayog (he is the agent for both Calbayog and Catarman, btw and a good friend of mine), kulang sila ng aircraft and most of the Q400 are based in Cebu. And lately yata isa sa Q400 is under repair.

Ah ganun ba? sana magdagdag sila ng aircraft to compete Cebu Pacific and Zest Air... parang humihina kasi sila ngayon dahil nabawasan ang sumasakay sa kanila at lumipat sa ka-compete na airlines na mas mura.hehe..... And I like if there's a competition, kasi nagmumura ang mga tickets and the service ay gumaganda. Unlike nung Asian Spirit palang ang bumabyahe, ang mahal ng ticket (super) P6000, kaya nagbubus ako lagi nun papuntang Samar at pabalik ng Maynila hehe. Pero ngayon mura na mag-plane, P788-P1500 nalang.:D

^^
Pero mas marami ang tao sa Catarman Airport..:lol:

^^ Maraming passengers? Yup, mas marami compare sa Calbayog. Kaya nga nagsisiksikan ang mga pasahero sa loob ng waiting room e kasi maliit lang yun. hindi kasya ang 100 passengers.... Kaya sana, kung magkatotoo at mangyari mang ilipat ang airport ng Catarman sa Mondragon or Pambujan, sana lakihan nman nila ang terminal building at pahabain ang runway yung pwedeng maglanding ang malaking airplane like A320. hehe... but I really like na sa Mondragon sya ilalagay dahil sa katabi lang sya ng Catarman... pero kung sa Pambujan, sobrang layo na nun.. I'd rather chose to go to Calbayog than Pambujan kung ganun. and in that case mahahati ang passenger load ng Catarman at dadami sa Calbayog.

^^
Hindi passengers..Tao lang..:D

Pero marami din namang passengers sa Catarman..

^^
Hindi passengers..Tao lang..:D

What do you mean by maraming tao sa Catarman airport? Sabi mo hindi passengers. Employees ba?.. kung ang sinasabi mong maraming tao yung naglalakad sa runway, I think naresolve na yun.hehehe

^^
Yun..:lol:

Mabuti na lang si PGMA mismo ang naka observe ng situation ng airport sa Catarman kaya aksyon agad.

^^
May bakod na ba sa Catarman Airport?..Di na ba napapasukan ng mga tao ang runway?

May portion na may bakod meron naman wala dahil sinira na ng mga tao at hindi pa yun napalitan ng mga authorities kaya lang wala na talaga pumapasok malban sa tatawid ka lang dun sa may gate sa itinakdang oras. 24 hrs kasi nakbantay ang sundalo at pulis.

Pagasa warns E Visayas, Bicol to brace for storm Feria (http://www.pna.gov.ph/index.php?idn=0&nid=1&rid=213261)

MANILA, June 23 (PNA) -- The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) urged the provinces in eastern Visayas and Bicol region to brace for inclement weather as tropical storm Feria makes a landfall and hit these areas in the coming days.

Bods..How's the weather there in SL?

Bods..How's the weather there in SL?

as of 8:00 AM the sun started to shine:lol:

^^Kuya Bods you're back. Hows Sogod? :D

^^ There are new buildings constructed around downtown mars. All of these are 3-story buildings.:)

^^Thats great. Gusto ko makita. :D May mga renderings ba nalinagay sa construction site? :D

They dont put renderings on the construction site @mars. They just pop-up without being noticed.:lol:

^^Kagaya dito sa Tacloban :lol: I'm happy na may mga bagong buildings sa Sogod.

Kuya Bods operational ba ang Maasin Airport?

nope....a lot of people doesn't even aware that there's an airport in Maasin.:nuts:

^^:lol: Mas maganda kung ilagay sa Sogod ang airport since sentro sya ng province. Pero kung ilagay man sa Maasin okey na din para hindi na pumunta ng Tacloban ang mga taga western leyte :D

^^hopefully mars in the next 20 years:lol:

^^I've never been to Maasin or Sogod pero based sa pictures mauunahan pa ata ng Sogod ang Maasin na magkaroon ng highrise or midrise someday? :D

I dont think so since Maasin has a little space for buildings. They usually build mid-rise buildings to save space.

^^I've never been to Maasin. :D Pero infairness maganda ang Bus Terminal nila kesa sa Tacloban :D

^^I've never been to Maasin. :D Pero infairness maganda ang Bus Terminal nila kesa sa Tacloban :D

yup...maganda nga yong terminal pero wala namang tao:bash:

^^:lol:

I'll be going to Maasin for the anniverary celebration this July 1 hopefully I could take a lot of pictures of Maasin.

^^Salamat Kuya Bods. We'll be expecting that. :D Don't forget to take pictures of Sogod too. :D

Mahina lang ang hangin sa Catarman. Kaya lang total blackout pa dito for 2 days na. Kaya di pa rin akio makapost ng maayos

PROMINENT IN THIS PICTURE ARE THE INK AND THE 7TH DAY ADVINTIST CHURCHES BUT THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH IS MISSING.

2 days??!!...Grabe..Di ko kaya yan...

Diba sa Leyte din nanggagaling yung kuryente dyan?

^^ Yups, Sa Leyte galing... Ganyan din talaga sa amin... madalas ang brownout... Pag may bagyo kahit hindi malakas nagbabrownout..
Yan ang isa din sa malaking problema sa Norhtern Samar.. Halos everyweek may brownout... di mo maintindihan kung bakit. at minsan tumataas ang voltage at bumababa kaya maraming may nasisirang mga appliances dyan.
Lalo na nung may Power Barge dyan sa Victoria, dun ang source ng kuryente..

Hanggang ngayon ganyan pa rin.. Kaya nga kung mababasa mo sa Cebu Pacific inflight magazine yung about sa Catarman destination.. may nakalagay dun always bring a flashlight dahil laging may power outage.. hehe..
Ewan ko kung bakit hindi maayos yan ng NORSAMELCO..
Kaya isa din yan sa dahilan ng mabagal na pag-asenso ng bayan.:bash:

^^I believe na may makukunan ng kuryenta sa Samar Island. Mabundok ang isla so its not impossible na may Geothermal reserves sa kabundukan ng Samar.

Tourism industry in Southern Leyte shapes up despite need for aggressive marketing and promotions

By Erna Sy Gorne

Maasin City (June 24) -- Investments in support to tourism industry start shaping up in the province despite the need for the local government units to set up a more aggressive marketing and promotional campaigns, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Provincial Director Micheal Nuñez revealed.
Provincial Director Nuñez cited that construction of several facilities to support tourism industry surprisingly sprouted all over the province recently particularly along those areas where dive sites were identified.

The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) together with the non-government organization (NGO) German based, GTZed in close coordination with the local government units are drawing an investment code incentives to further encourage investments in the province.

He said the group expects more investment will continue to pour in the near future should an aggressive marketing and promotional campaigns be completely designed for each of the local government units.

He said tourism in Southern Leyte takes off due to newly discovered dive sites that draws thousands of foreigners throughout the world despite the global economic crunch.

Dive sites located in Limasawa, Padre Burgos, municipalities along the Sogod Bay Area and Napantao in San Francisco, the twin islands of San Pedro and San Pablo in Hinunangan and the whale sharks watching in Pintuyan, were among the tourists attractions that begins to call the attention of both local and domestic tourists, he said.

To mention a few, the newly completed construction of a beach resort in Kuting, Macrohon, the Padre Burgos Castle in Tangkaan, Padre Burgos and a hotel in Silago, all of Southern Leyte, were among the most recent investments, he added.

Nuñez added that more tourist destinations were awaiting to be tapped to include the no less than 2,000 - hectares natural forest in Silago, among others.

He is also optimistic of the economic growth to take place in once-the farthest town but due to the opening of Abuyog-Silago road network, Silago has become the nearest point to a commercial airport in Tacloban City throughout the province. (PIA Southern Leyte)

Gaisano, other investors keen on locating in Maasin City

By Bong Pedalino

Maasin City (June 24) -- All times, according to a Chinese proverb, are times of crisis.

Perhaps this was the reason why, in spite of widespread talk on financial crisis gripping economies global and national in scope, a number of commercial building construction is visible here, obviously upbeat despite claims of perennial bad times.

And the local government unit here is up for the challenge.

During the bi-weekly radio program yesterday dubbed "Maasin City in Action", City Mayor Maloney Samaco disclosed that aside from the Gaisano chain of superstores, other investors were equally excited to have their presence felt here.

At least two Mall-oriented business enterprises from Manila have expressed their intention to open shop in the city, Samaco said, naming one of them as City Square and another unidentified prospective locator.

In a brief chat at his office today, Samaco told PIA that even a local grocery owner from Sogod town informed him of her willingness to invest in the city.

The city LGU has been in the thick of preparation to build a dry goods market at the integrated terminal building, at the other side parallel with the newly opened wet market.

In fact, when President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo shall visit the city on July 2 (no longer July 1) she will lead in the groundbreaking ceremony for the soon-to-be-constructed dry market, a 36 X 36 square meter structure that will add glitter to the city's already expanding business landscape.

It has been an open secret that the new structure would house the Gaisano, but Mayor Samaco said negotiations are still ongoing, and as this developed other investors are also willing to take the place of Gaisano if they will not push through.

Samaco stressed the need for the city to have an advantage of the proposed business deal, in which the city will shoulder construction costs, and locators pay monthly rentals.

He said there's no need to rush this development undertaking, adding that the city can wait for the proper time -- until after the elections, if necessary -- to dispel notions of politicking. (PIA-Southern Leyte)

Maasin City (June 24) -- All times, according to a Chinese proverb, are times of crisis.

Perhaps this was the reason why, in spite of widespread talk on financial crisis gripping economies global and national in scope, a number of commercial building construction is visible here, obviously upbeat despite claims of perennial bad times.

And the local government unit here is up for the challenge.

During the bi-weekly radio program yesterday dubbed "Maasin City in Action", City Mayor Maloney Samaco disclosed that aside from the Gaisano chain of superstores, other investors were equally excited to have their presence felt here.

At least two Mall-oriented business enterprises from Manila have expressed their intention to open shop in the city, Samaco said, naming one of them as City Square and another unidentified prospective locator.

In a brief chat at his office today, Samaco told PIA that even a local grocery owner from Sogod town informed him of her willingness to invest in the city.

The city LGU has been in the thick of preparation to build a dry goods market at the integrated terminal building, at the other side parallel with the newly opened wet market.

In fact, when President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo shall visit the city on July 2 (no longer July 1) she will lead in the groundbreaking ceremony for the soon-to-be-constructed dry market, a 36 X 36 square meter structure that will add glitter to the city's already expanding business landscape.

It has been an open secret that the new structure would house the Gaisano, but Mayor Samaco said negotiations are still ongoing, and as this developed other investors are also willing to take the place of Gaisano if they will not push through.

Samaco stressed the need for the city to have an advantage of the proposed business deal, in which the city will shoulder construction costs, and locators pay monthly rentals.

He said there's no need to rush this development undertaking, adding that the city can wait for the proper time -- until after the elections, if necessary -- to dispel notions of politicking. (PIA-Southern Leyte)

NAGA CITY, Philippines -- The Naga City Council has passed a resolution strongly opposing a House bill seeking to amend the Local Government Code of 1991 (Republic Act 7160) to allow several municipalities to become cities by exempting them from income requirement.

In the resolution, passed on June 16, the council said it was joining the League of Cities of the Philippines (LCP) in opposing the bill which it said discriminates against other local government units in favor the 16 municipalities that recently lost in the case “LCP versus the Commission on Election.”

In the case, the 16 municipalities argued that they should be exempted from the minimum income requirement to be a city because their charters had been approved by Congress before the Supreme Court nullified their elevation to the category of city in November last year.

The Naga City Council said the proposed amendment would violate the “equal protection clause under the 1987 Constitution” and would be a retroactive implementation of a law, which is in violation of Section 450 of Republic Act 7160.

It also noted that the 16 municipalities must comply first with the requirements provided under Section 450 of Republic act 7160 which states that to become a city, a municipality should have an annual income of at least P100 million.

It said that when the decision of the Supreme Court in the LCP vs Comelec case became final, Naga City, for instance, was notified that it was going to receive an IRA adjustment amounting to P42 million.

The cities reverted back to being municipalities and call themselves the "League of 16", which include Baybay (Leyte province), Bogo, Naga and Carcar (Cebu), Catbalogan and Borongan (Samar), Tandag (Surigao del Sur), Lamitan (Basilan), Tayabas (Quezon), Tabuk (Kalinga), Bayugan (Agusan del Sur), Batac (Ilocos Norte), Guihulngan (Negros Oriental), Cabadbaran (Agusan del Norte), El Salvador (Misamis Oriental), and Mati (Davao Oriental).

Kaya sakaling kumandidato si Binay, siya ang iboto natin. One of Binay's platform is to give poorer municipalites the biggest share in IRA. Gusto niyang ibigay ang malaking bahagi ng IRA sa mga LGUs na mas nangangailangan.

Isa pa ay yung pondo para sa infrastructure ay diretso na dun sa municipio o city at di na dadaan sa kamay ng DPWH, Provincial Government and etc. Kumbaga yung DPWh sa logictic services like heavy equipments na lang sila.....

BE NICE in 2010! :lol: as we can see in tarps/banners in most of the streets here in Makati. hahaha:lol:

Same with me. He is not my type of politician. mayabang! Pinagyayabang nya yung mga free services ng Makati sa constituents. natural magagawa ng Makati yun dahil sobrasobra ang income ng Makati kahit sino ang Mayor dyan. kung tutuusin hindi na kailangan ng Makati ang IRA allocation dahil walang sinabi ang IRA allocation nila as comnpared to Business Income and Real Property Taxes. Billions ang collections ng Makati. The richest city in the country not because of Binay of course. Kung tutuusin kulang pa ang pinagyayabang nyang free services na yan Mani lang yan at Ampaw. Ang tanong. . . Magkano kaya ang Ahmm. . . . ni Binay sa napakalaking income ng Makati?:ohno::ohno::ohno:

^^
Baka mas malaki ang Ahmm niya kesa sa income ng Makati..:lol:

^^I'm sure malaki ang na AAhhhhmmm ni Binay sa Ahhmmm ng Makati :D

^^A320 na ba ang ginagamit na eroplano ng PAL, CEB, at Zest?

Yung papuntang Catarman hindi pa. Maliit lang ang airport dun, hindi rin pede ang A320 maglanding sa runway kasi maiksi lang... kaya malilit na aircrafts lang ang gamit dun. PAL Express (Q400 -76-seater), Cabu Pacific (ATR 72-500
72-seater), at Zest Air (MA60 -56 seater)..
Yun PAL Express, previously gumagamit daw ng Q300 - 50-seater.

Memories. I still remember that building sa left side. Dyan kami naggrogrocery before pagandyan kami sa Naval. I believe yan ang pinakamalaking shopping center sa buong munisipyo :D

^^Sir Calbayognon kung ok lang sayo and if you have time kunan mo naman ng picture yung internet cafe mo :D

Proposed Calicoan Resort in Calicoan Island, Guiuan, Eastern Samar

^^
Ngayon ko lang nakita to ah...Who is the owner Mars..?..Will that project push through?

http://www.cirdc.com/images/overview/overview_siteplan.jpg

Project Site

The site has two especially prominent features. Firstly, the site is located on the center portion of 5 kilometer white sand beach facing the Pacific Ocean with 450 meters (1476 feet) of ocean frontage.
Secondly, the site is approximately 15 minutes from the Guiuan Airport, which has an existing 2,134 meter (7,000 feet) of asphalt runway maintained by the Department of Transportation of the Philippine Federal Government. The approximate flying time to Guiuan utilizing a commercial passenger jet from Cebu-Mactan Airport would be about 20 minutes. And, the Cebu-Mactan Airport has numerous daily domestic and international arrivals. Therefore, the proposed development will be easily accessible to both domestic guests and those originating from international locations.

http://www.cirdc.com/images/calicoan%20resort%203d.jpg

Development

The proposed development consists of a total of 550 residential and hotel units. Specifically, the development will have:
288 Condo Hotel Units
150 Time Share Units
120 Condominiums
60 Poolside Suites
18 Private Residence (Fractional Ownership)
636 Units+(40 to 48 Poolside Cabanas)

In addition to the Residential and hotel units, Calicoan Island Resort includes:
• Casino
• Spa and Sports Complex
• Medical Facility for tourism related medical treatments
• Various Restaurants and Bars

http://www.cirdc.com/images/overview/overview_resort_site_pic.jpg

Development Schedule

The Calicoan Island Resort will be developed in two Phases. Phase 1 is to be developed on approximately 3 hectares of the total 11 hectares and will contain the casino, the spa, a restaurant and corresponding hospitality units. The hospitality units will be designed to provide hotel accommodations until the principal hotel is available (288 units), which is Phase 2 of the development. Once the principal hotel is opened, the initial Phase 1 hospitality units will be converted into the timeshare component. The entire development will take about 3 years to build, where Phase 1 will be constructed in about 2 years with a scheduled completion date of December 2009.

I have no idea kung nagstart na ang construction sa area. Pero sabi ni urban the last time he went to Calicoan wala pang malalaking infras na tinatayo dun :(

^^ WOW! nice plan for Calicoan.. Sana mag-open na ang Airport sa Guiuan para dumami ang mga tourists at investors na pumunta dyan hehe.:banana:
Pero sana hindi sya maging katulad ng Boracay na over-crowded na; at dapat maayos ang pagplano sa paggawa ng mga kalsada dyan..at maiwasan ang mga squatters;

mahigit 1 year ko na nakita yung plan.. sana mag start na yan..

I believe this is the first Mercury Drug in Calbayog?:D...Pero dalawa na ata ang mercury drug sa Calbayog ngayon.

matraffic nga dyan pag sapit ng 5-6pm lalo na kung bukas ang runway gate malapit kasi yan sa runway. yung mga vehicles galing sa dalakit at capitol nakakadagdag sa traffic dyan. Plus may naka park pa na service vehicles sa mga schools na yan. buti na lang may nalilipasan din na ibang kalsada

^^
Meron dapat silang parking area pag nagtatayo ng building..Lalo na ito..Skwelahan pa naman..

NAKITA KO LANG SA NET.... SHARE KO LANG... :D

^^:lol: Mas maganda kung ilagay sa Sogod ang airport since sentro sya ng province. Pero kung ilagay man sa Maasin okey na din para hindi na pumunta ng Tacloban ang mga taga western leyte :D

maasin doesnt deserved to have an airport and sogod has no vast plain land to build an airport.there is an airport in the nearby hilongos but to date no commercial or even private plane who used the airport.why not upgrade this airport to served the southern part of the island.i remember back in the 90s, Aerolift advertised to have service in the area but i dont think if it was possible since aerolift lasted shortly.i heard also that this airport is very short and can't handle commercial flights.

^^Cyber you're back! :D From Sogod and Maasin ilang km ba papuntang Hilongos? Diba PAL (i think) may flights sila before sa Hilongos?

Naksakay ko ngayon paguwi ko ang "Shamrock Band" via Zestair balita ko may concert sa UEP Gymnatorium sponsored by GSM Blue.

Galing ka pala ng Maynila Catar? hehe

YAP! MGA 5 DAYS AKO DUN. NAKASABAY KO NGA ANG SHMROCK BAND KANINA. MAY CONCERT SILA MAMAYA SA UEP GYMNATORIUM. MARAMI NGA DITO STREAMERS/TARPAU HALOS LAHAT NG POSTE FROM DOWNTOWN TO UEP.

^^Cyber you're back! :D From Sogod and Maasin ilang km ba papuntang Hilongos? Diba PAL (i think) may flights sila before sa Hilongos?

yes mars..from sogod to hilongos is about 35km and from maasin to hilongos is about 30km..i think no flight yet that served the airport.

Akala ko nasa Catarman ka dahil sa mga pics mo..
