Congressman Jalosjos says it’s ‘Amor con Amor se paga’ with Zamboanga (http://www.zamboangatoday.ph/index.php/news/13-top-stories/5951-congressman-jalosjos-says-its-amor-con-amor-se-paga-with-zamboanga.html)

Zamboanga – is the immediate and categorical answer given by Zamboanga Del Norte 3rd District Representative Cesar Jalosjos sighting the good relationship of its leaders and that of Zamboanga City when asked if he is running for any position in Zamboanga City.

In an interview, Congressman Jalosjos said that the political climate of Zamboanga City is presently in its strong foundation and the people have chosen outstanding leaders who managed to run the state and its affairs properly in consonance to progress and development and there is no reason for the people to venture other political clans or organizations to run the affairs of their city and consign it in despair.

The solon sighted that his province is also in good relationship with the leaders of Zamboanga City, particularly his co-leagues in congress Deputy Speaker and District 1 Representative Ma. Isabelle Climaco-Salazar, and District 2 Representative Erico Basilio Fabian, who is his seat mate, close personal friend and co-league in the Nacionalista Party where the entire Jalosjos political clan in Zamboanga del Norte province also belong.

“Our alleged invasion in Zamboanga is only rumors. Not in our personal knowledge, we don’t have plans to put a Jalosjos in Zamboanga, Beng is my kumare, Erbie is my co-party member, so why should we go there?” Congressman Jalosjos clarified.

Congressman Jalosjos revealed that for several times and even just recently, some people from Zamboanga City visited them and wanted the Jalosjos to run in Zamboanga, but they haven’t taken it seriously as there is no serious matter about it because they don’t have plans to meddle with Zamboanga’s political climate.

“Let’s leave Zamboanga City to its present leaders. The city is in good hands with the able leadership and sound management of Erbie, Beng and Mayor Celso Lobregat as the record shows, the Jalosjos’ are not traitors to its friends and allies ” the solon said.

The same opinion is also shared by Zamboanga del Norte 1st District Representative Seth Jalosjos and Zamboanga Sibugay 2nd District Congressman Romeo Jalosjos,Jr who are one with their clan in having one voice in terms of political stand and decisions.

“Although we have a lot of friends there in Zamboanga, mucho conose, de alya tamen kita, pero para comigo, last term yo ara na congress, I will run as governor in Zamboanga del Norte, my brothers and nephews are in their 1st term also, so how could we ran in Zamboanga? Very simple, we would rather support our allies there,”. Jalosjos said.

At present the Jalosjos’ are occupied in formulating coordinative efforts and strategies in upholding the peace and order problem here in Western Mindanao together with their co-leagues in congress.

Congressman Jalosjos said that they also had talks with the representatives of Zamboanga City with regards to the initiatives to be undertaken in the present peace and security problem we are facing here in our area.

Jalosjos said that with the coordinative efforts of the leaders in the halls of congress, the huge possibility of convergence in peace and security initiatives would be favorable to all citizens of Western Mindanao.

Let's be careful this coming 2013 Zanortehanons specially we Dipolognons. The province needs a leader with a strong political will to change its present condition.

Jalosjos, who is owner of the world famous beach resort, said that at present parking areas are being developed to accommodate the growing number of vehicles of clients and functions halls are being constructed and completed to accommodate greater number of tourists. He said by July this year, customers can already park their vehicles near their cottages and tourist-oriented facilities within the Resort.

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MXz4FjB1fO8/TiKmN-0aTPI/AAAAAAAAA9g/smsgprqw9_0/s1600/IMG_8755.JPG

Just recently the twin facilities involving the Dakak Musical Fountain and the Dakak Cockpit bar and restaurant were inaugurated in simple ceremonies attended by local government offickials which include Dapital City Vice Mayor Patri Chan and the Sangguniang Panglunsod Members, Baliangao, Misamis Occidental Municipal Mayor Lana Jalosjos, key officials from the national government offices relating to cullture, arts, museaum, archives and other related offices and other local government officials and representatives of non-government organizations. The Dakak Musical Fountain provides additional entertainment to tourists and the water flow from the fountain dances with the music being played, while the Dakak Cockpit Bar and Restaurant provides a variety of drinks and foods that cater to the tastes of customers both domestic and foreign.

Jalosjos said that Dakak Resort is offering a promotional treat for family or group clients at the minimum of 50 persons with lowest rate per person. He said for Nine Hundred Ninety-Nine Pesos (P999.00) only per person. The family or group clients can avail of two free meals and an overnight stay plus a visit to historical spots such as the Rizal Shrine and similar landmarks in the city especially to the Fantasy Land where you can enjoy various rides and entertainments. He said at present, twenty six (26) air-conditioned buses are available to transport family or group clients from various points, including Cagayan de Oro City, Zamboanga City, Davao City, Ozamiz City, Bacolod City and other nearby areas. He said the transportation is given free. He added children may have a separate rate if they are in company of the family or group clients.

Jalosjos said while in Dakak the clients will be treated to a variety of experiences such as river and bay cruising, historical land marks, fantasy land, exotic foods and a variety of drinks, hospitality of the people, and many more.

Compared to other resorts in the country, Dakak has the solitude which is missing in other resorts; People who prepare solitude will enjoy their stay in Dalak as they are free from the noisy atmosphere common to other beach resorts. Dapitan City had been declared recently as a cultural heritage zone.

Marami pa lang latest development sa Dakak or sa Dapitan City as a whole. Sana itong mga promos nila ay i lathala din nila sa mga local at print media para kahit saang sulok ng Pilipinans ay malalaman talaga. Si Mr. Jalosjos naman sana huwag niyang i limit ang pluging niya sa GMA channel lang. Hindi ko na kikitang may pluggings siya sa ABS-CBN. Hindi sa minamaliit ko ang audience share ng GMA pero mabuti na ring lumawak pa ang kanilang pag aanunsiyo kasi maraming TFC ang ABS sa ibat-ibang parte ng mundo. I noticed when other provinces advetzied their festivals or celebtations nakikita natin sa ABS bakit an Hudyaka festival natin hind lumalabas?

In fairness nariring ko ang mga usap-usapan tungkol sa presence ng promong Fantasyland Bus sa Zamboanga pero hindiko na kikitang i plug-in nila sa TV para mas maging aware at marami ang nakakaalam. I am saying this because masaya ako sa mga plano at nagagawa ng ating mga local officials sa ating province ngayon. Ang sa akin lang kung gusto nating ipaabot sa lahat bakit hindi natin gamitin ang lahat ng networks?

Opinion ko lang po yon. Salamat.

Yun din ang napansin ko libris. Pero now, mukhang nawala din ung ads nila sa GMA. Ok naman ung sa tv pero dapat ding iupdate ng Dakak ung website nila. Ang hirap ksi macontact nla ng mga tourists sa Manila dahil d2. At tsaka mas maganda rin mamuhunan si Jalosjos ng ads sa internet sa mga indemand na websites kagayang facebook, twitter, at mga news sites. As of now, ok ang inflow ng tourist sa Dakak. Madaming taga Manila na by group ang nag-aavail ng promo sa Dakak which is also good sa ating airline industry sa Dipolog particularly sa Cebu Pacific. :banana:

Bank contributes to Dipolog Credit Surety Fund
October 20, 2010

DBP has increased its total approved contributions to the Credit Surety Fund (CSF) program of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas to P31-million with its support to the recently-launched Dipolog Credit Surety Fund.

DBP president and chief executive officer Francisco F. Del Rosario, Jr. said the Dipolog CSF is the 16th CSF project supported by the DBP as part of its continuing efforts to boost its assistance to the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) sector.

The CSF is a credit enhancement scheme that allows member cooperatives and its member MSMEs to borrow from banks through a Joint Letter of Surety Coverage issued by the CSF Oversight Committee in lieu of hard collateral. The Dipolog City government, including nine cooperatives, also contributed to the Dipolog CSF which is the fifth credit surety fund established in the Mindanao region.

DBP is the first financial institution to support the CSF program, while serving as a trustee bank and lender to the participating cooperatives and its qualified MSME members. Del Rosario said that as of September 30, 2010, the DBP CSF Credit Facility has total loans in the pipeline amounting to P154.5-million and approved loans of P34.35-million, of which P13.37-million has already been released.

BOI conducts investment promotion seminar in Dipolog
by Franklin P. Gumapon

DIPOLOG CITY, Aug. 19 (PIA) -- Building the image of the town and, providing incentives for investors, were among the techniques learned by around 30 participants including local officials from the Dipolog-Dapitan-Polanco-Katipunan-Roxas-Manukan (DDPKaRoMa) Growth Corridor, representatives of the national government agencies (NGAs), business sector and other stakeholders during a three-day investment promotion seminar held here recently.

Ms. Lourdes Ellen Kionisala, head of the Board of Investment (BOI)-Cagayan de Oro Extension Office served as the main lecturer-facilitator in the seminar, providing techniques in investment generation and servicing.

Kionisala told the participants particularly those coming from the LGUs that they should start building the image of their respective cities/towns to attract investors.

She said that giving incentives to investors is one way of attracting investments. This may be in the form a tax holiday or tax credit.

The participants were also asked to identify the positive conditions and characteristics of their respective cities/municipalities that make them attractive to businessmen.

A common trait among the municipalities which is considered a come-on to investors is the very low crime incidence. Terror groups are also absent in the area.

Two vice mayors and a municipal councilor religiously attended the seminar. They were vice mayors Enriquita U. Winters and Leonor O. Alberto of Manukan and Roxas towns, respectively, and Councilor Erlinda Zaragosa of Polanco municipality.

The seminar was an initiative of the DDPKaRoMa Project Management Office headed by Maria Teresa B. de Jesus in partnership with the Local Government Support Program-Local Economic Development (LGSP-LED) and Department of Trade and Industry (JPA/FPG/DTI-PIA9/Zambo Norte)

Modernization of the Livelihood Skills and Development and Enhancement Center

PROJECT TITLE : Modernization of the Livelihood Skills and Development and
Enhancement Center

PROJECT BENEFICIARY : LGU of Dipolog City

PROJECT SITE : Galas, Dipolog City

CONTACT PERSON: Hon. Evelyn Tang Uy

POSITION: City Mayor

IMPLEMENTING AGENCY : DOST IX – GIA

PROJECT COST:P 8,685,000.00

Amount requested: P 711,000.00

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The City Government of Dipolog, in its quest to address the problems of poverty and unemployment had come up with a very worthwhile project, which is the establishment of the Livelihood Skills Development and Enhancement center (LSDEC). Through constant coordination with other agencies like the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA), the 2nd District Congressional Office and the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), the realization of the project has been made easier.

As a center established to hone the skills of interested individuals, LSDEC partnered with TESDA in providing technical education and vocational trainings to help local residents earn a decent living. The training facility is already operational and in fact a lot of students/trainees who were trained for various competencies as classified had graduated and had already landed a good job locally and abroad.

Another component of the project is the common service facility. This project involves the establishment of a common service food facility which is FDA- and HALAL-certified. The facility caters to the interested food processors in Dipolog City and the neighboring municipalities under the concept “rent, process and sell.” This scheme addresses the common problem of micro food processors whose growth is hampered due to absence of an appropriate processing area that will comply with FDA requirements. In response to that, the facility can now be used to process bottled sardines and herring and fruits, vegetables and other roots crops.

Various sectors of the society will eventually benefit from this project. Furthermore, this serves as a venue for students, graduates, women, out-of-school youth who wish to further enhance their skills in food processing for National Competency certificates from TESDA. This will also boost the local food industry as processed foods are assured of the highest standard in terms of quality. All the responsible processors assigned at LSDEC had undergone series of trainings on good manufacturing practices (GMP) and food safety.

The common service food facility is not just a mere service provider in Dipolog City. It is positioned as a change agent that promotes entrepreneurship, builds capacities and livelihoods, and facilitates community involvement and collective action for local economic development.

Aside from the various equipment LSDEC has acquired, DOST has provided some equipments for the processing of root crops into chips, grates and flour specifically 1-HP root crop grater/chipper, root crop presser and 2-HP root crop combined flourmill.
And to further enhance the facility, LSDEC proposes for the acquisition of modern equipment under the grant-in-aid (GIA) program. This proposal will focus on the common service processing facility of LSDEC.

TECHNOLOGY INTERVENTIONS :

* Manpower Development
* System Improvement
* Process Improvement
* Equipment Acquisition

PROJECT STATUS/OUTPUT/IMPACT :

* Upgraded processing equipment
* Standardized production process
* Increased income through product quality and productivity improvement
* Generated employment and business opportunities for the people
* New markets penetrated resulting from increased production volume
* Provided students/out-of-the-school youth an avenue to train and enhance their capabilities for TESDA-certification

Plaza Magsaysay - A landscaped park providing an oasis of greenery right in the center of Dipolog City. It is a converging point for many people from all walks of life for simple strolling and relaxing. The hectare-sized lot just beside the City Hall and fronting the Holy Rosary Cathedral is an ideal place for small outdoor meetings in a nature setting.

Goodtimes Café & Art Gallery - A private mini-park-cum-art gallery and restaurant. It is about 1,000 square meters with a two-storey ancestral house filled with art collections. Everywhere are objects and collectibles including chinaware, figurines, paintings, sculptures, papier mache masks, odd-shaped driftwood, and a twenty -five year old stereo from which soft music flows. Kapilya Juliana, a chapel for all religions, can be seen at the garden. Cut marbled tiles forming a scattered rays of the sun made up the design of the floor of this open chapel. Several artistic works of Dipolog known artists are also displayed at Galeria Indolencio at the yard.

Pagsalabuk Circle/Rotunda - The design is partly abstract and partly classical. It is the artist's interpretation of Dipolog Today -- a perfect blend of rich cultural, ethnic and historical heritage; deep-seated traditions, values and customs, and technological advances, modern breakthroughs and amenities.The statues represent the Tri-people of Mindanao…. Like the people of Dipolog, diverse, yet united in its visions and goals, peace, progress and a just and humane society.The figures stand almost 4.50 meters in height and are made of resin, a polymer fiber product that is durable light and cost less than bronze or brass.Symbolic of the people of Dipolog, the bowl raised to the heavens is a gesture of thanksgiving and offering to God Almighty, they look up to God and beg for the generous outpouring of graces and blessings, bountiful harvests and sustained peace and prosperity, which He generously showers on them - like the water that cascades profusely to the ground. It also symbolizes the diverse cultures prevailing in Dipolog City. Inspite of the diversity, the people are united by a common vision and hope.

Dipolog Beach - A velvet stretch of fine gray sand, exquisite solitude as the fiery sun dies in the horizon to the onset of twilight, broken only by the distant cries of fishermen returning to shore with the day's catch.

ECOTOURISM COMPLEX - Dipolog City's premier ecological destination and a favorite site of visiting local and foreign nature enthusiasts. The complex comprises the following:

Cogon EcoTourism Park - So named after its entrance location in the hinterlands of Barangay Cogon, this environmental rest area park and forest preserve stretches into the neighboring Municipality of Polanco and covers a total land area of 344 hectares.
An upshot of massive tree-planting activities regularly undertaken since its establishment as a reforestation area way back 1958, the area now hosts a range of mature planted trees and other important floral varieties. Within the park's vast expanse also lies a 40-hectare natural forest that is home to at least ten documented rare fauna species.
http://www.dipologcity.com/HRRAD/011304CogonEcoPark_NightOwl02_small.JPG http://www.dipologcity.com/HRRAD/011304CogonEcoPark14.JPG
Just a few meters from the park's entrance is located the Aviary, where visitors can catch a glimpse of exotic birds endemic to the area. Further ahead is an exact replica of a typical Subanen Village where real Subanen tribesmen actually living within the buffer zone of the project area, on their colorful native costume and perform traditional Subanen dances and rituals for the benefit of interested visiting groups. This is also where visitors can witness Subanen women as they demonstrate the art of weaving baskets and other novelty items mainly from Nito vines.

Sungkilaw Falls- In nearby Barangay Diwan, another natural wonder awaits visitors with the cool, cascading waters of Sungkilaw Falls.
Where nature is at its best, the Cogon EcoTourism Complex (Cogon EcoTourism Park and Sungkilaw Falls) offer such exciting outdoor sports and adventures as camping, trail trekking, bush walking, rapelling, cañoneering, swimming and Tyrolean traverse.

Naa ra ang difference sa 3d, 4d og 5d:

4-D film (sometimes written as 4D film) is a marketing term that describes an entertainment presentation system combining a 3-D film with physical effects in the theatre, which occur in synchronization with the film (note that 4-D films are not actually 4-dimensional).

The combination of 3D movies with chair movement (vibration, sway, tilt, drop, wave motion, or movement in any direction) and other chair effects such as wind blowing, water spraying, leg and back ticklers is usually considered a 4D experience. Using additional hall effects such as smoke, rain, lightning, air bubbles and special smells (for example fireworks smell at the London Eye's Experience and gassy smells when the stinkbug sprays it at It's Tough to be a bug) is often regarded by many as 5D. However, since there is no standard for using these terms, each company uses its own terminology and it is often confusing. It is important to disregard the marketing slogans (4-5-6-7D) used by different companies and check what is exactly offered for both the visual and sensory experience.

Sungkilaw Falls Tour, Diwan, Dipolog City (http://gogobibo.wordpress.com/2010/07/30/sungkilaw-falls-tour-diwan-dipolog-city/)
July 30, 2010 in Dipolog, Escapade, Mindanao

http://images.sharpangel.multiply.com/image/1/photos/159/300x300/16/IMG-4581.jpg?et=kguPIwnumqnt,GD2GiJRwQ&nmid=354152654

Sungkilaw falls is an awesome falls that lies beneath the mountains of Diwan, Dipolog City. It boasts a spring on the east part that flows to a very rapid fall down to a river.

The “Habal-habal” ride is worth it. We would definitely come back here again to take a dip the cold spring or just hang out with friends.

Tourism hut and entrance

There is NO ENTRANCE FEE to the falls and spring. You will be asked to log your name in the Tourism guest book.

http://images.sharpangel.multiply.com/image/1/photos/159/300x300/41/IMG-4615.jpg?et=3qKpOOe0AgkWGraCkiL3Qw&nmid=354152654

http://images.sharpangel.multiply.com/image/1/photos/159/300x300/40/IMG-4614.jpg?et=5BuPUhtO1vTCqTvjmeJvgA&nmid=354152654

The path to the mountain is well paved and is well maintained.

http://images.sharpangel.multiply.com/image/1/photos/159/300x300/5/IMG-4567.jpg?et=eVJq6rzX+qY8F8,8yGBQkw&nmid=354152654

You will walk across well paved steps 100 meters to reach a Y-trail. The left trail will get you to the view deck of Sungkilaw falls around 30 meters away. The right trail will lead you to the “Mineral” well and River/Spring where you can take a dip in the cold water.

The Sungkilaw Falls
Amazing! One of the best water falls in the Philippines.

Salt/Mineral concentrated water well
It is very unusual to have salt water well on top of a mountain. This is believed by the locals to have medicinal effect due to its mineral concentration. I tried to sip some water and IT IS VERY SALTY.

The Sungkilaw Spring

The water is very cold and there is a current going to the waterfall. This area has very big rocks and the water is very clear and drinkable. This is the main swimming area for tourists.

How to get to Sungkilaw Falls
Rating: Expect very rocky road.

1. Ride a tricycle from your hotel/house in Dipolog to Satellite Market bus terminal, Dipolog City for 7.00 Php. This will take 10 minutes if your hotel is located near the central barangay.

2. From the terminal, ride a bus/jeep/truck bound or that will pass “Diwan” or “Cogon” Dipolog City. “Pagadian City” bound buses also travel via this route. RURAL Co. Bus fare to the Sungkilaw intersection as of 7/21/2010 is 25Php. Ask the conductor to drop you in the intersection going to “Sungkilaw Falls”. There is a sign “SUNGKILAW FALLS => 14 KM” and you cannot miss this. Distance is 37 KM and travel time is 42 minutes.

Barangay route to note is Central barangay > Galas > Olingan > Punta > Diwan.

3. From the Diwan highway “Sungkilaw” intersection, you will note a number of motorcycles parked near the waiting shed. Ask around for a “Habal-habal” or “Motorcycle for rent” to Sungkilaw falls.

http://images.sharpangel.multiply.com/image/2/photos/159/300x300/1/IMG-4563.jpg?et=Y1ElmoSVi+o2bJ+ALYQNTw&nmid=354152654

This will cost you 100Php/ride/head. A round trip will cost you 200.00Php. If you are a local traveling in a group, you can bargain with your charm. Good luck.

The route will be Diwan highway > Pamansalan > Sitio Virginia.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND Cars/Multicab/SUV to travel the road of Sitio Virginia going to the falls. It is very rocky and malformed. The engine of low cars will be easily snagged. Leave your cars. YOU ARE WARNED! 4X4 pickups or mini Jeeps or ATVs is advised to take this road.

http://images.sharpangel.multiply.com/image/1/photos/159/300x300/44/IMG-4621.jpg?et=OTit+FNQlBp5uHQ2lNCa6A&nmid=354152654

Insider tip:
a. There is no mobile phone signal up the mountain trail and in the Sungkilaw Falls area.
b. There are no written rule/fares for the Habal-habal drivers. If 100Php/ride/head is raised (Some will ask 150!), Learn to bargain!
c. Ask for Ruel Saldariega ( 0928-228-3397 ), a Diwan Local who strictly imposes a 100php/head/ride to the falls. You can text Sir Ruel for reservation on your trip.
d. Bring food and water and DO NOT LITTER. Please consider the environment. No cold soft drinks after Pamansalan.
e. Water in the Sungkilaw Spring is drinkable and cold. :)

RPMC MONITORS PROJECTS IN ZN
Friday, 01 July 2011 07:56

http://www.neda9.net/images/stories/neda_graphics/Press_Releases/PR_12-_RPMC.png

The technical working group of the Regional Project Monitoring Committee (RPMC) IX, a committee under the Regional Development Council IX, visited nine (9) projects in Zamboanga del Norte on May 16-19, 2011. Six of the projects are implemented by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and three by the Department of Health (DOH).

The three DOH projects visited by the team were the Construction of the Constantino Soriano Sr. Memorial Hospital in Siocon, Zamboanga del Norte costing P 35.0 million, Upgrading/ Renovation/ Improvement of the Jose Rizal Memorial Hospital in Dapitan City, amounting to almost P10.0 million, and the Construction/Improvement of Building at the Pinan District Hospital costing some P5.0 million.

The DPWH projects that were monitored consist of the following: Road Gravelling and Widening of the Zamboanga West Coast Road, Gutalac-Baliguian section amounting to P 668 million; Road Upgrading (gravel to concrete) of the Sindangan-Siayan-Dumingag-Mahayag Road amounting to almost P15.8 million; and the Construction of Multi-purpose Pavement Phase I and II at the Jose Rizal Memorial State University Complex amounting to about P9.6 million and P19.3 million respectively, Completion of the Multi-purpose Pavement at the Jose Rizal Memorial State University Complex amounting to some P19.3 million, Construction of Multi-purpose building
Phase II and III at the Jose Rizal Memorial State University Complex amounting to about P19.2 each phase respectively. Other projects that were visited include the Concreting of the Dapitan-Dakak Road amounting to P58.0 million; Rehabilitation/Improvement of Dipolog-Punta-Dansullan-Sergio Osmena Road (Pob. Alto-San Juan Section) amounting to P161.8 million; and the Construction of Seawall along the Coastal Area of Poblacion Manukan to Manukan River amounting to P47.7 million.

http://www.neda9.net/images/stories/neda_graphics/Press_Releases/PR_12-_RPMC2.png

Except for a few concerns, the projects monitored by the RPMC team especially those by DPWH were implemented according to plan. For DOH-implemented projects, the team noted its observations and recommendations, among which are additional manpower to address limited personnel, need for consultation among end-users starting at planning stage, and the need to keep an up-to-date record on all construction activities in order to have a timely and reliable report on the project accomplishments. After conducting monitoring activities, the team forwards its findings to the agencies concerned for their information and appropriate action. (Michael Vincent DC. Caboral/ Vilma M.

The Regional Development Council-Executive Committee-9 (RDC-ExCom-9) convened last June 3 for the conduct of Fiscal year 2011 budget consultations of Agency Regional Offices (AROs) and State Universities and Colleges (SUCs), per National Budget Memorandum 105, s. 2010 of the Department of Budget and Management.

As a preparatory activity for the budget consultations, a two-day Pre-Budget Forum was conducted by RDC-9 on February 23-24, 2010, where concerned agencies and SUCs presented their respective FY 2011 Annual Investment Programs.

The forum generated issues, concerns and recommendations to be considered by the agencies/SUCs in the preparation of their budget proposals for FY 2011. The Pre-Budget Forum is an initiative of the RDC-9 as recommended by the Private Sector Representatives (PSRs) to give them more time to review/comment the programs, projects, activities of agencies/SUCs for Calendar Year 2011.

Based on the foregoing, the RDC-ExCom-9 endorsed a total FY 2011 budget proposal of P23.24 billion representing 27 agencies and SUCs. The breakdown of the proposed budget, by sector, is as follows: 1) Agri-Industrial Sector (9 agencies) with P1.65 billion or 7.10 percent share; 2) Development Administration (2 agencies) with P141.27 million or 0.61 percent; 3) Infrastructure Sector (3 agencies) with P4.67 billion or 20.14 percent share; 4) Social Sector (5 agencies, 2 TESDA-supervised schools) with P15.64 billion or 67.32 percent share; and 5) State Universities and Colleges (6 schools) with P1.12 billion or 4.83 percent share.

Of the agency regional offices, the Department of Education-9 (DepEd-9) has the biggest budget proposal amounting to P11.94 billion, followed by DPWH-9 and DSWD-9 at P4.13 billion and P2.42 billion, respectively. For SUCs, the Western Mindanao State University (WMSU) proposed the largest budget of P374.88 million followed by Jose Rizal Memorial State University at P248.67 million.

The budget proposals shall “give priority to the completion of major ongoing programs and newly-approved commitments while considering expenditure proposals in identified priority sectors of the national/regional government,” as disclosed by DBM (Norman Jose E. Ramirez/NEDA 9).

Sad to hear nga when I was there and I tried to check the District hospital, guba, empty ug ang pharmacy na lang ang partially opened. The staff of district hopital received a memo to report to the new hospital last May lang and. In short bag-o ug modern ang hospital pero ang facilities, furnitures and fixtures were taken from the old district hospital. Sorry wala koy pictures kay confidential ang akong tuyo didto.

By the way ang Atrium Hotel kay nindot siya pwede e compare sa uban sa nga hotel in other cities, three stoy siya ug dunay function hall that can accomodate 300 guests ug duna pay swimming pool.

Lumad artists help in healing of crisis victims

By: Ramon Royandoyan
1:46 am | Monday, September 5th, 2011

After the government addresses the economic needs of victims of calamities and war, artists come in next.

Why? It is through the artist and their art that victims experience psychosocial healing.

Recently the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) held the 12th Artists for Crisis (A4C) in Dapitan, Zamboanga del Norte. The seminar was part of a series that started two years ago.

The A4C is a quick-response program to aid in the psychosocial healing of communities ravaged by war and natural or man-made calamities in the country. The emphasis of A4C is on women and children in the community.
http://lifestyle.inquirer.net/files/2011/09/t0905dapitan_feat3_2.jpg
The workshop completed the third group of artists, the Lumads.

The Lumads, defined in Cebuano as “a rising out of the earth,” consist of artists from different indigenous groups all over the Philippines—from Kalinga, Bontoc, Kankana-ey, Ifugao, Talaandig, T’Boli, B’laan, Bisaya, Banawaon, Aeta, Subanen, Matigsalug, Mangyan, Tagabawa, Ati and Manobo.

The four-day training for the artists consisted of plenary sessions from resource speakers, who addressed the problem of “cultural identity” and crisis situations. The training will help the Lumad artists in assessing and giving the trauma healing within their respective communities.

The workshop also showcased the different cultures of the indigenous peoples: from the invocations which included different rituals such as praying to their religious icons, to the chants which they incorporated in their rituals.

The artists employed different art forms in artistic psycho-healing, such as the visual, performing and literary arts.
http://lifestyle.inquirer.net/files/2011/09/t0905dapitan_feat3_4.jpg
The artists from the indigenous groups used these art forms to revive and pass on their cultures to the younger generation, one artist said during the plenary sessions.

Problem of cultural identity

Bro. Karl Gaspar, CSsR, a member of the Redemptorist Itinerant Mission Community/Team that conducts missions in various parishes in Mindanao, addressed the artists and talked about the problem of a cultural identity among indigenous peoples.

“Even you, the indigenous peoples, look down upon yourselves because of the lowlanders,” he said, referring to the way members of indigenous groups perceived themselves because of alienation from urban residents.

Aside from that, he also addressed the fact that “they [indigenous peoples] should see themselves as equal to the ‘lowlanders,’ contrary to their perception of inferiority.”

Lowlanders tend to have a “condescending” view toward indigenous groups in the country.

Gaspar also talked about the problem of colonial mentality, a systemic feeling of inferiority left behind by several hundreds of years of colonialism in the country.

“Even festivals are a clear violation of rituals of indigenous peoples,” he said. “Music arises from their integrity.”

Gaspar said that Filipinos had become “culturally traumatized” because of several years of colonization.
http://lifestyle.inquirer.net/files/2011/09/t0905dapitan_feat3_5.jpg
In the same manner, even one Lumad artist said they themselves could not classify if they really belong to the Lumad; there had been continued cultural dialogue on how they should be addressed.

Aside from Gaspar’s talk, June Pagaduan Lopez also gave her two cents’ worth about the way the artists should react in crisis situations.

“From my experience, certain crisis situations demand that the artists be patient when it comes to their respective communities,” Lopez said. “One parent asked me once why I was encouraging the child to play after a military encounter. I said in reply, ‘When would you have them play?’”

She stressed that feelings of trauma, which stemmed from experience of war and natural calamities could be resolved through counseling and even the arts.

Indigenous trauma

Lopez initiated several group discussions to address the problems of artists in their respective communities. One Lumad artist said they were even identified as members of the New People’s Army by the military, which caused them trauma.

The plenary sessions enabled the different Lumad artists to interact among themselves. They were not grouped according to their indigenous groups in some instances.

The plenary sessions were conducted to orient the artists on how they would address psychosocial problems in their communities.

Ernie Cloma, from the Philippine Educational Theater Association, talked about how he had used theater arts to help children rehabilitate.

“I used trash to make puppets so that the children can express themselves,” Cloma said. “During the session, a child refused to play because he was afraid of what happened to him.”

“The use of the different art forms for therapy can purge fear, hatred and trauma.”

The Lumad artists were encouraged to create illustrations of what they felt toward the natural or man-made disasters they experienced. Visual artist Alma Quinto facilitated those sessions.

The questions “Why did it (the natural or man-made disaster) happen?” and “What was the creative response of the community?” were among those raised.

The four-day training focused on “enlightening” the Lumad artists on the artistic methods in psychosocial healing, not on the problems of the victims per se.

Before Dapitan, 11 workshops had been conducted, most of which in Mindanao, for victims of domestic violence, military conflict, cultural discrimination, and child trafficking. A4C has produced 88 trained facilitators and 242 participants since its inception.

The NCCA already conducted two trainors’ training which benefited 50 Christian artists and 38 Moro artists from Jolo, Tawi-tawi, Marawi and Maguindanao.

Lain na usab nga bag-ong ekipo ang nadawat sa Zanorte Medical Center (ZMC) karong ba-o pa lamang gikan sa Spanish Government ilawom sa Millennium Development Goal Fund (MDGF 1919). Ang Bacteriological Equipment nga nagkantidad P5.3 milyones giturn-over ngadto sa ZMC pinaagi sa Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG).

Si Fe Secosana, Local Government Operation Officer V sa DILG ning lalawigan nagkanayon nga usa ang Zamboanga del Norte sa 17 ka probinsya sa nasud nga resipiente sa maong ekipo gikan sa Spanish Government ug magamit kini sa pag eksamin sa ilimnong tubig sa tinguha nga mamentinar ang kalimpyo niini.

Dugang pa niya nga ang maong proyekto sa MDGF 1919 o “Enhancing access to and provision of water services with the active participation of the poor” gipadangat dinhi sa nasud pinaagi sa United Nation Development Fund (UNDP) ug United Nation International Children Educational Fund (UNICEF).

Niini, ang kagamhanang probinsyal ilawom sa administrasyon ni Gov. Rolando Yebes mipaabot sa dakong pasalamat ngadto sa Spanish Government sa ayudang gihatag aron masiguro ang kalimpyo sa tubig nga gipang-inom sa mga pasyente.

DILG cites 10 governors, 20 mayors for effective programs
September 5, 2011, Filed under In Focus

(A reprint from the Philippine Star) The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) has cited 10 governors and 20 mayors for initiating and implementing programs designed to improve the lives of their constituents, environment protection, financial accountability and commitment to transparency.

Interior Secretary Jesse Robredo said the 30 local government units have been named as top performing LGUs for 2010 based on their high scores in the latest local government state of performance report.

“I laud these local governments for their commitment in elevating and maintaining the highest standards of public service delivery in their respective localities. I hope that their shining examples will inspire others to strive hard in the performance of their duties,” he added.

Robredo said the 30 LGUs garnered high scores in the DILG’s Local Governance Performance Management System (LGPMS), a web-based, self-assessment tool that measures LGU performance in key governance areas and provides information on the status of LGUs in terms of local governance and development.

The assessment system is being managed by the DILG’s Bureau of Local Government Supervision to gauge the LGUs’ performance on administrative, social, economic, and environmental governance, and fundamentals of good governance which include transparency, participation and financial accountability.

Robredo said the top 10 high performing provinces are Bohol, La Union, Bulacan, Negros Oriental, Pangasinan, Ilocos Norte, Albay, Cavite, Compostela Valley and Tarlac.

On the other hand, top performing cities in the highly urbanized and independent component cities category include Valenzuela, San Juan, Puerto Princesa, Angeles, Davao, Naga, Zamboanga, Iligan, Cebu and Taguig.

For the component cities category, the top performers are Ligao in Albay, Laoag in La Union, San Fernando, Vigan, Gingoog, Cabanatuan, Dipolog, La Carlota, Iriga and Batac.

Mayor Evelyn Uy and Dipolog PNP Chief Maclang Awarded

The observance the month-long celebration of Police Community Relations Month (PCRM) last July has successfully culminated last August 1 with both Dipolog City Mayor Evelyn T. Uy and P/Supt. Reynaldo M. Maclang simultaneously received an awarded from the PNP Regional Office, Zamboanga City for their unique tandem resulting in successful apprehensions of criminals and control of the peace and order condition of the city.

This year’s PCRM, dubbed as “Matatag Na Ugnayan Ng Mamamayan At Kapulisan Tungo Sa Mapayapa At Ligtas Na Pamayanan” is annually conducted pursuant to Presidential Proclamation No. 764 issued last January 24, 2005.

The celebration seeks to promote strong partnership between the police and its community in the maintenance of peace and order as well as to foster and improve communication and mutual understanding between the police and the community.

One of the highlights of the culmination was the presentation of awards and recognitions to the “best among the best practices” for PNP Units/Offices and personnel, to emphasize the initiatives that projected the police image not just as a regular law enforcer but as a catalyst for the socio-economic development of the country.

Furthermore, Dipolog PNP continues its mission in strengthening the partnership between the police and the local community. This is because the local community plays a critical role in the eradication of crimes and unlawful activities by feeding relevant and vital informations to the Philippine National Police to combat all forms of criminalities in the city.

Ang uban kay mag realign lang jud ug pundo para mapunduhan ang ilang mga big infra projects, ang other services wala nay budget. Lets hope nga ma achieve nato kining Swingapore.

I hope they (DMC) already changed those meds as their clients are paying right amount for the services they rendered.

Senator shares his PDAF to Dipolog City indigent patients
by Alfonso T. Ruda

DIPOLOG CITY, Sept. 5(PIA) -— Senator Francis Escudero has committed to allocate P200,000.00 of his Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), commonly known as “Pork Barrel” Funds for the indigent patients from Dipolog City that will be admitted at Dr. Jose Memorial Hospital in Dapitan City.

According to the City Information Office, Escudero, in his letter dated August 23 to Dipolog City Mayor Evelyn T. Uy, pledged to share the said amount upon learning that most if not all of them usually go to the City Mayor for financial assistance.

Relative to this, Mayor Uy then asked the Sangguniang Panlungsod of Dipolog City to pass a resolution to grant her authority to enter a Memorandum of Agreement in the name of the Local Government Unit of Dipolog City with the Office of Senator Escudero for the said purpose.

In another development, Dipolog City Planning Officer Engr. Albert Alimpulos said that the construction of the 100-bed capacity Corazon C. Aquino Hospital will be started immediately as soon as they will get the go signal from the Central Office of the Department of Public Works and Highways.

Alimpulos said, all the pertinent papers relevant to the construction of the said hospital has already passed the initial screening conducted by the DPWH First District Office in Dipolog City and is now with its regional office for comment before it will be forwarded to the DPWH Central Office for final screening and ultimately, its implementation.

The P200-million hospital was personally committed by by Kris Aquino (younger sister of the President) during the Presidential Campaign of then Presidential Candidate Benigno Aquino III in the 2010 Presidential election.

In that meeting, Kris personally Mayor Uy about her priority project to ask from the President, if ever President Aquino will be elected as President which the City Mayor readily replied, a hospital.(JPA/ATR/PIA9-Zambo Norte):banana::cheers: `

Dipolog City , one of the ten top Performing LGU
by Alfonso T. Ruda

DIPOLOG CITY, Sept. 6 (PIA) -— Dipolog City has been recently included among one of the top performing Local Government Units (LGUs) under the Component City category.

This was the result of the 2010 Local Government State of Performance (LGSP) report of the Department of Interior and Local Government.

The LGSP Report is one way of assessing the performance of an LGU on governance, and providing information on the LGU’s state of local governance and development.

Based on the LGSP Report, DILG Secretary Jesse Robredo, then announced the top thirty (30) LGUs in the three different categories all over the country.

In the Component City Category, aside from Dipolog City, other cities which comprises the top ten are Ligao City in Albay; Laoag City in La Union; San Fernando; Vigan; Gingoog; Cabanatuan; La Carlota; Iriga;and Batac, Ilocos Norte.

The top ten(10) performing provinces are Bohol; Bulacan; La Union; Negros Oriental; Pangasinan; Ilocos Norte; Albay; Caviete; Compostela Valley; and Tarlac.

On the other hand, the top ten (10) performing highly urbanized cities and independent component cities are Valenzuela; San Juan; Puerto Princesa; Angeles; Davao; Naga; Zamboanga; Iligan; Cebu; and Taguig.

The LGU’s recognition was based on its administrative performance; social; economic; and environmental governance and fundamentals of good governance including transparency; participation; and financial accountability designed to uplift the social living condition of its constituents.

The recognition received by the City Government of Dipolog came amidst accusation by the critics of Mayor Evelyn T. Uy of sowing terror in the city by conducting political persecution to the media personalities who are very vocal against her administration.

Particularly cited by her critics was the arrest of Genesis Ajero, an Anchorman of Isyo Karon program aired over DXFL, Monday to Saturday, from 6 to 7 o’clock in the morning.

Ajero, a mediaman identified with the provincial government of Zamboanga del Norte was apprehended about 1:30AM on Sept. 4, 2011 in a drug buy-bust operation conducted by the joint elements of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency, 9th Regional Public Safety Battalion; Dipolog City PNP and Team David along Patangan Road, Purok 5 at Sta. Isabel, Dipolog City. (ALT/ATR/PIA9-Zambo Norte)

DIPOLOG CITY, Sept. 5 (PIA) -- Seeing Dapitan City as the tourism hub in the region, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) – IX headed by Regional Director Ponciano M. Ligutom has spearheaded a “3Y” project here.

In a consultation-dialogue with partner-agencies held recently in Dapitan, Director Ligutom made a brief presentation about the project before the 3Y member-agencies and other stakeholders.

No less than DOLE Undersecretary Lourdes Melicor-Trasmonte attended the said dialogue where she underscored the importance of the collaboration between and among government and non-government agencies for the project to succeed.

3Y which stands for One Locality, One Industry, One Service Quality, was the brainchild of Director Ligutom seeking to promote local community tourism in Dapitan with emphasis on improving the quality of service by hotel and restaurant attendants, bus and tricycle drivers and other service groups for the tourists and guests.

Hakog nga politiko isalikway–Katawhan
August 29, 2011

Ang dumot sa politika dinhi sa lalawigan sa Zamboanga del Norte ug sa duha ka dakbayan sa Dipolog ug Dapitan ang gikabalak-an sa mga katawhan tungod kay sumala pa nila mao na unyay mopatigbabaw ang dautang pamolitika ug dili kay milansar tungod lang sa pag-alagad sa katawhan kondili ang kahakog sa kuwarta nga iya sa katawhan ug ang kahakog sa gahum isip lider sa katawhan.

Usa pa ka tuig ang nakalabay sa piliay ning maong dapit, apan ang mga giingong hakop sa puwesto sa kagamhanan ang nasayran nga miaplay na sa hugaw nga dula sa politika ug dili patas nga pamaagi. Wala hinganli sa tinubdan ang nahisgotang politiko, apan maoy gitumbok niini ang hut-ong sa politiko sa lalawigan sa Zamboanga del Norte nga misaad nag ilang samokon ang lalawigan ug dakbayan kon dili nila makuha ang simpatiya sa giingong mga maayong politiko nga nag-alagad base sa tinuod nga kawsa paghatag kalamboan sa katawhan.Tungod niini, ilang giawhag ang tanang botante nga karong sunod election kinahanglan nga mobarog gayud sa ang mga botante ug magpili sa usa ka lider dili sa ilang kuwarta kondili sa ilang gihimo ngadto sa mga katawhan nga ilang gisaaran nga alagaran.

Sa pagkakaron, ang milutaw nga mokandidato sa pagka-gobernador mao ang mga Jalosjos batok sa mga Uy dinhi sa lalawigan sa Zamboanga del Norte. Samtang sa unang distrito wala pay nakitang kontra ang incumbent nga si Cong. Bullet Jalosjos, samtang si Cong Dodoy Labadlabad, aduna nay klarong kontra nga si gobernador Rolando Yebes, kinsa last term na sa iyang pagka-gobernador sa lalawigan.Samtang sa ikatulong distrito, ang mga Jalosjos posibleng atbangan sa usa ka heneral sa army kinsa giingong sabakon sa Liberal Party.Samtang sa lungsod sa Sindangan, si incumbent Mayor Nilo Sy mag-atubang sa anak ni Gov. Yebes. Sa Dipolog gituohan nga pakigbatokan ni Vice Governor Frances Olvis si incumbent Mayor Belen Uy. Didto sa dakbayan sa Dapitan wala pay mipaila nga makig-atbang sa manok sa mga Jalosjos.

Ning maong plastada, tinubdan nagkanayon nga kinahanglan ang mga botante magbalanse gyud kon kinsay ilang iboto ug dili lang ka sa kwarta lamang magbase ug sumala pa dili magpalingla ug paghulga.Sumala pa sa tinubdan nga kon mahulga ang mga botante sa panahon sa election, kon ang maong politiko ang modaug, tibuok kinabuhi na lamang kitang mahulga tungod kay mao kanay estilo sa nakitang politiko nga mitumaw karong panahona.“Basin kon mahayan kita sa atong mga kabataan ugma puhon kon dili kita mobarog ug makigbatok karon batok sa mga dautan nga politiko,” matud pa sa nahinabi ning mantalaan.

Dalan sa Brgy. La Esperanza wala tabangi ni Gov. Yebes
August 28, 2011

Maoy tiyabaw sa mga opisyales sa Barangay La Ezperanza nga ang ilang dalan didto labihanayng dauta nga nagkinahanglan unta ug pag-ayom-ayom aron maserbihan silang mga katawhan sa barangay.

Mao kini ang gipahibalo ni Kapitan Bienvenido Sumagang dihang nahinabi siya ning mantalaan human sa iyang pagpanumpa s aiyang katungdanan isip bag-ong kapitan ug mananaug sa piliay kaniadtong Oktubre 25 didto sa nahisgotang barangay.

Matud pa niya nga gawas sa dalan nga labihanayng gubaa, nagproblema pa usab silag ilimnon nga tubig ug ang ilang mga balay-tunghaan didto labihanayng gubaa nga malouy na sila sa mga magtutungha tungod kay mosulod sa guba kaayong balay-saringan.

Ang maong pamahayag ni Kapitan Sumagang gisigundahan usab ni consistent number one barangay konsehal Aurelia Orong ug number 5 Konsehal Consuelo Binarao, kinsa sumala pa nila nalipay silang milingkod na si Kapitan Sumagang tungod kay maoy ilang unahon ug trabaho ang maong suliran sa ilang barangay.

Laing tinubdan ang nakapangutana ni Gobernador Rolando Yebes kon nganong wala man matabangi bisan ug ayom-ayom na lang ang maong barangay sanglit nga ang gipulihan ni Kapitan Sumagang, supporter man sa gobernador ug usab sumala pa nangindahay nga maayo usab unta ang maong dalan ug ubang suliran.

Laing mibutho nga pamahayag mao nga samtang ang first district daghang proyekto, apan didto man gibobo sa dapit diin anaa ang mga negosyo nga gipanag-iya sa mga Jalosjos ug wala man maabti ang tinuod nga nanginahanglan nga katawhan sama sa Barangay La Esperanza nga gidescribe ang dalan nga labihanayng dauta.

Ang maong barangay wala ra makaabot ug napulo ka kilometros gikan sa lungsod sa Rizal, Zamboanga del Norte hinungdan nga daghang natingala nga wala man kaabti sa proyekto ang maong barangay.

Ang hitsura sa Barangay La Ezperanza giingong sama ra usab sa ga kabarangayan sa mga kalungsoran sa La Libertad, Sibutad, Piñan, Mutia, Polanco, Rizal, Sergio Osmeña, Sr., Katipunan, Roxas, Manukan, Leon Postigo, Salug, Liloy, Tampilisan, Gutalac, Labason, Siocon, Sirawai, Sibuco, Kalawit, Baliguian, ug Godod, kansang mga provincial roads ang gireklmao sa mga katawhan.

Taho usab nagkanayon nga bisan gani ang ubang barangay sulod sa Dapitan nagbagolbol man gihapon sa mga dalan, hinungdan nga ang pagpasiatab ni Gov. Yebes nga iyang giatiman ang mga kadalanan sa tanang barangay sa lalawigan maoy usa ka dakung bakak, matud pa nila.

Ngani, sa nasayran, ang mga kapitanes sa kalungsoran dili pa lang dugay mihingalan man sa gobernador nga bakakon kay samtang iyang gipahibalo nga adunay iyang mga proyekto sa kabarangayan, apan ang mga barangay officials mihimakak nga wala silay nadawat nga proyekto gikan sa lalawigan.

Taho nagkanayon nga ang pagpaguwapo sa dalan mao lamang ang pagconstruct diha padulong sa dakung negosyo sa mga Jalosjos sa Barangay Taguilon, Dapitan City nga sumala pa migasto hangtud sa P365 milyones ka pesos nga giingong gikan sa Special Social Fund ni kanhi president Gloria M. Arroyo.

Ang Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) mibutyag nga ang dalan padulong sa Dakak nga may gitas-on nga sobra sa 10 kilometros lamang, gigastohan sa gobyerno ug P365 milyones ka pesos.
Ang DPWH 3rd District, nga gipangulohan ni Engineer Elnora P. Gongob mitaho pinaagi ni Engineer Christopher Ebal nga ang paggama sa dalan Dapitan-Dakak gibahin-bahin ug ka-walo ka hugna. Ang lima ka hugna gidumala sa Third Engineering District samtang ang DPWH Region 9 maoy midala sa tulo ka hugna.

Taho nagkanayon nga ang phase 1 ug 2, sumala pa gikontrata sa Grace Construction Co., nga taga Ozamiz. Adunay budget nga mokabat sa P50 milyones ka pesos, samtang ang ikatulo, ika-upat ug ika-lima ka phases gibudgetan ug P178 milyones ka pesos.

Dugang pa sa tinubdan nga ang DPWH Region 9 nagahinan usab ug P130 milyones ka pesos aron mahuman ang maong dalan. Ang gilapdon sa dalan mokabat sa 6.7 metros, ug adunay gitas-on nga 10.795 kilometros lamang.

Pipila ka engineers nga nahinabi niining pamantalaan mihatag sa ilang opinyon nga mahal ra kaayo ang maong dalan.

Tungod niini, ang mga kabarangayan, sama sa La Esperanza nga nag-antus sa tumang kalapok nga mireklamo na ang mga katawhan, ilabina ang bag-ong milingkod nga kapitan, mireklamo sa mga nahisgotang lideres kon nganong wala magahini bisan gamay lamang ang ilang barangay alang sa dalan, ilimnong tubig ug ang mga tunghaan sa kabataan.

Naa napoy namulsa og dili ilaang kwarta ba! Kalagot!:ohno:
