Board of Directors of the coconut industry investment fund-oil mills group (ciif-omg) during an interview with members of media about their mass resignation July 13, 2018,

QUEZON CITY, Philippines – The future of over 2,000 copra farmers now hangs in a balance after the shutdown of three large oil mills in the country.

This, after plant managers joined in the mass resignation of the board of directors of the Coconut Industry Investment Fund – Oil Mills Group (CIIF-OMG) on Thursday (July 12).

The mass resignation was prompted after Malacañang nominated Rehan Balt Lao as the new President and Chief Executive Officer of the CIIF despite their (Board of Directors’) opposition over issues of corruption.

On Tuesday (July 10), five members of the CIIF board filed a case against Lao for his alleged unauthorized claim of being president of the CIIF-OMG and also for not submitting a Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth (SALN).

The complainants insisted that they are no longer at ease working with Lao citing issues of irregularities, which they believe are violations of President Rodrigo Duterte’s anti-corruption campaign.

“Sabi ko, “Sir, kung ganiyan Sir na ipipilit ninyo si Mr. Lao sa amin, magre-resign na ako.” Sumunod naman si President Lor, sumunod ang mga directors…Ayaw na talaga namin makasama si Mr. Lao,” said CIIF-OMG Chairman of the Board Eddie Delima.

The mass resignation has resulted in uncertainty in the operations of three giant oil mills in the country which now face shutdown. These are the Granexport ManufacturingCorporation (GRANEX) in Iligan City; the Legaspi Oil Company Incorporated (LEGOIL) in Bicol; and the San Pablo Manufacturing Corporation (SPMC) in Laguna.

The shutdown would incur a huge loss in the daily operational income of the oil mills that would certainly affect the salary of workers.

“Because most of the people we have in the field are regular employees so when we have a shutdown, the company has to keep on paying them. For every day of a shutdown, we are losing like P400, 000 a day,” Delima added.

The controversy also puts in peril the income of more than 2,000 copra farmers who supply copra to the said three mills. The CIIF-OMG buys copra from these farmers at a higher price but with the current crisis, the farmers are left without a choice but to lower their price.

If not immediately addressed, Delima said the situation would also affect the production of cooking oil and the country’s exportation of crude coconut oil.

The Philippine Coconut Authority (PCA), meanwhile, assured to provide assistance to the affected farmers.

“We will facilitate linking the farmers to the millers para makabenta sila ng deretso at makakuha sila ng magandang presyo,” said Billy Dela Rosa, PCA Administrator. – Asher Cadapan Jr. / Marje Pelayo

Supreme Court Administrator Midas Marquez

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine Judges Association (PJA) has recommended to President Rodrigo Duterte on Friday (July 13) Supreme Court (SC) Administrator Midas Marquez as replacement of Associate Justice Presbitero Velasco Jr. who is retiring on August 8.

“We believe that Court Administrator Marquez possesses the necessary qualifications and experience, having been in the service of the Supreme Court for almost three decades in various positions,” the PJA said in a letter to the President dated July 9, 2018.

The recommendation came amid allegations of questionable disbursements by Marquez for an SC project that was jointly funded by the World Bank (US$21.9 million) and the Philippine government (US$2.5 million).

Marquez, in his response to the complaint filed by Rizza Joy Laurea, said the accusations were baseless and recycled.

Marquez is included in the shortlist of candidates submitted by the Judicial Bar Council (JBC) together with Court of Appeals Associate Justices Jose Reyes Jr., Apolinario Bruselas Jr., Rosmari Declaro-Carandang, Ramon Hernando, Ramon Garcia, and Amy Lazaro-Javier as well as former Ateneo College of Law Dean Cesar Villanueva. – UNTV News and Rescue

QUEZON CITY, Philippines – The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) reported on Friday (July 13) that 186 local officials have been stripped of supervisory powers over the police in their areas of jurisdiction since President Rodrigo Duterte came into office.

According to DILG Officer-In-Charge Eduardo Año, the said local officials have been deprived of police authority because of their involvement in illegal drug trade and failure to curb terrorist activities in their areas. From the said number, eight were governors while 178 were city and municipal mayors.

Meanwhile, ten local executives have been killed so far under the Duterte administration. Three of whom have established links in the illegal drug trade.

DILG Undersecretary Epimaco Densing said that based on their investigation, the common reasons for crimes against local officials are politics, business, and a love triangle. Densing  suspects that some criminals are taking advantage of the government’s war on drugs to divert public’s sentiments and attention.

“Parang may sumasakay na “Pagkakataon na natin itong patayin ang ating kalaban kasi may namatay doon para i-link doon.” Para kunwari base sa drugs. But for the information of everybody prior to the killing of Mayor Halili, of the 10 killings of the LCE that were killed in the past  two years, tatlo lang po ang may koneksyon sa ilegal na droga,” Densing said.

To date, a total of 156 local officials have been suspended or dismissed for charges of grave misconduct, serious dishonesty, neglect of duty, abuse of authority and other irregularities.

The DILG said this proves the effectiveness of the agency’s measures in line with President Duterte’s campaign against errant and corrupt public officials.

“By offering the public mechanisms to report complaints, such as the Hotline 8888 and the Office of the President itself, we were able to investigate and file cases against local officials alleged to be abusive or not performing their job in accordance with their mandate,” Año explained in a statement. – Bernard Dadis / Marje Pelayo

PASAY CITY, Philippines – Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) now have the chance to refund the P550 terminal fee that was incorporated in their plane tickets at the office of Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) in Pasay City.

The refund, which covers OFW travels from August 2012 to April 2018, is in line with the agreement signed in March 2017 by the Department of Transportation and 40 airline companies operating at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).

The agreement emphasized exemptions of OFWs in paying the terminal fee in recognition of their sacrifices and contributions to the improvement of the country’s economy through dollar remittances.

Refund is available for OFWs at the lobby of MIAA office from Mondays to Fridays, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., except for holidays. They are advised to bring a copy of the plane ticket with locator code and a valid identification document such as a passport.

Aside from OFWs, airline passengers whose flights were canceled may also avail of a refund.

“Kapag may mga pagkakataon ang pasahero ay hindi nakakaalis, nag-expire ang ticket at for some reasons, nagkansela sila at hindi na pwedeng gamitin, so dapat isasauli natin sa mga pasahero iyong taxes na iyon dahil hindi po sila gumamit ng ating paliparan,” explained MIAA General Manager Eddie Monreal.

The MIAA, however, noted some problems because so far, only six airlines have remitted terminal fees to their office. These are Cebu Pacific, Cathay Pacific, KLM Airlines, Kuwait, Singapore and Ethiopian Airlines. Also, some of the airline companies have not yet submitted the list of passengers who qualify for the refund.

“Iyon lang ang naitatanong ko. Bakit hindi pwedeng ibigay ang pangalan? Kasi para naman mapabilis ang pag-refund namin sa mga pasahero ngayon. Kasi hindi naman pwede na ibigay na lang ang pera na wala tayong pagbabasehan na na-cofirm na hindi pa nila na-refund talaga,” Monreal argued.
It was in February 2015 when the previous administration imposed a refund of the terminal fee.

Since then, according to MIAA, the terminal fee collected has reached to half a billion pesos. However, only half of the said amount was refunded to OFWs.

Monreal assured the public that the collected fee remains intact in the NAIA’s general fund and will not be used in any anomalous transaction. – Joan Nano / Marje Pelayo

MANILA, Philippines – The Supreme Court (SC) directed the Commission on Elections (Comelec) on Friday (July 13) to submit its position on the issue of shading threshold in the ongoing pilot recount in the vice presidential race.

The order came after the Office of the Solicitor General supported the position of former Senator Bongbong Marcos which emphasized that recount should use the 50 percent shading threshold.

The Comelec earlier issued a resolution to use the 25 percent shading threshold as the basis for the recount, something that the Solicitor General, who is the poll body’s lawyer, opposed. – UNTV News and Rescue

Mugshot of the suspect in the killing of a tabloid commentator Joaquin Briones

QUEZON CITY, Philippines – The Philippine National Police (PNP) on Thursday(July 12) arrested the primary suspect in the murder of tabloid reporter and radio commentator Joaquin Briones in Masbate last year.

The suspect, identified as Antonio Del Rosario alias “Ronnie/Panoy” was nabbed inside a fast food chain in Visayas Avenue in Quezon City through a warrant of arrest issued by Masbate RTC Branch 44.

Del Rosario is believed to be a member of the “Sako” criminal gang, a robbery hold-up and gun-for-hire group. He is the number one most wanted person in the list of criminals of Balud Municipal Police Station in Masbate.

Del Rosario denied any involvement in the crime and insisted that he was in Manila when it happened. He said he is ready to prove his innocence.

“Nagpapasalamat ako kahit papaano ay nahuli nila ako ng maayos para maliwanagan ng korte. Ang mga binibintang nila sa akin, handa kong harapin yun,” Del Rosario said.
The Presidential Task Force on Media Security, meanwhile, was pleased with the arrest of Del Rosario.

“Magkakaroon na ng justice yung pagkamatay ni briones,” said retired PSupt. Richie Duldulao, the Task Force head.

Four gunshot wound hit Briones that caused his death in March 2017. Reports said the crime was due to his fierce criticisms against illegal fishing, underground gambling and illegal drug trade in their province.

The Task Force is closely coordinating with the PNP to solve the cases and serve justice to the slain journalists. – Lea Ylagan / Marje Pelayo

MANILA, Philippines – A joint administrative order was signed on Friday (July 13) by the Department of Health (DOH) which provides the public easy access to medical assistance fund from the government.

The initiative established a one-stop shop called “Malasakit Center” of various government agencies providing financial assistance for medical care.

It is expected to reduce waiting hours, queues, and paper works that patients had to undergo when applying for medical assistance. The order also provides guidance on the amount of financial assistance available from each agency.

“Maximum na puwede ay depende pa rin sa sakit. Hanggang P1M sa renal transplant. Sa cancer ay depende sa type of cancer, meron mga P50,000 to P150,000,” explained Health Secretary Francisco Duque III.

The DOH is with the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth), and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) in signing the order.

It states that funds for medical assistance may also come from PhilHealth and the PCSO. Non-medical costs like transportation shall be shouldered by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). It is expected that PhilHealth will further extend and strengthen its programs for its members through the joint order.

“PhilHealth is now paying for almost, as of May, P40B for the benefits payment alone. But we realize that this is not sufficient. A patient still goes home and still pays out of his pocket and if you are poor, where will you get your money?” argued PhilHealth Vice President for Corporate Affairs Shirley Domingo.

The administrative order hopes to fully achieve the “no balance billing” process wherein poor patients will only pay a small amount to zero. – JL Asayo / Marje Pelayo

QUEZON CITY, Philippines – The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has begun issuing the first batch of fuel subsidy cards to public utility jeepney operators in Metro Manila on Tuesday (July 17).

Each Pantawid Pasada card is loaded with P5,000 fuel subsidy which they can use to buy engine fuel to accredited gasoline stations.

The Landbank of the Philippines was tasked to distribute the subsidies through an ATM card to jeepney operators.

However, Assistant Director Del Romero of the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Oil Industry and Management Bureau said only few gasoline stations so far are accepting the fuel subsidy cards from over 8,000 gasoline stations across the country. This is because other fuel stations are still on the process of adopting the mechanism to accept the fuel subsidy cards.

Nevertheless, the 
LTFRB clarified that operators with surnames starting from letters A to M may avail for the first batch of fuel voucher cards on Tuesday (July 17). Those with surnames starting from letters N to Z will have their chance on Wednesday (July 18).

To avail, operators should present a valid identification card, a photocopy of the valid ID, an ID picture and the vehicle’s proof of franchise.

The list of qualified beneficiaries of the Pantawid Pasada fuel subsidy may be accessed through the LTFRB’s website and social media account. – Mon Jocson / Marje Pelayo

MANILA, Philippines – Dengvaxia vaccinees can now be monitored digitally online and in real time by parents and guardians.

This is through a soon to be launched mobile apps called Abizo and Kaizala for Android, iOS and Microsoft phones.

The apps allow parents of vaccinees to report the condition of their children.

It aims to provide vaccinees a prompt response and immediate medical attention by the local government.

“ This is not mandatory… Parents who are interested in tracing and monitoring the state of their children, whether away from home or at school can take advantage of these two kind of apps,” explained Education Secretary Leonor Briones.

“If there’s a parent (who) downloaded the app and registered the name of his or her child, lalabas doon kaagad iyong names. If he provided the LRN then verified agad na siya iyong parent. If he didn’t provide, that report will be segregated then throwback again to DOH for validation. Kapag na-verify then we include them under the category of private sector,” added Education Undersecretary Alain Del Pascua.

The monitoring apps are also expected to help identify areas that have high incidence of Dengvaxia vaccinees who are getting sick.

“There are a checklist of symptoms that they can just say, may lagnat, pannakit ng ulo…madali na. Sasabihin na lang doon saan mo dadalhin iyong bata. Anong service delivery, part of the network mo siya dadalhin,” said Health Secretary Francisco Duque III.

The Department of Education (DepEd) and other stakeholders assured that the National Privacy Act will protect the data sharing between DepEd and the Department of Health (DOH) in using the mobile apps.

Parents may officially use the mobile apps at the end of August. – Aiko Miguel / UNTV News and Rescue

BORACAY Island, Philippines – The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) is confident of the improvements in the state of Boracay Island’s beaches.

Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu said the coliform content in the surrounding waters of the island has now reduced to a safe level.

“Boracay is no longer a cesspool,” said Cimatu during the graduation ceremony of 243 candidate soldiers of the 3^rd ID, PA in Jamindan, Capiz on Monday (July 16).

The graduates were among the government troopers who helped in the rehabilitation efforts in Boracay.

Cimatu also expressed confidence that the reopening of the island on October 26 will push through seeing how the recovery and rehabilitation efforts progress.

To make sure that all establishments are environmentally compliant and qualified to join the reopening of Boracay Island, the DENR is planning to suspend all establishments’ environmental compliance certificate (ECC).

“We have to suspend all ECCs and there will be reissuance of ECC depende sa kanilang compliance,” said Cimatu.

The Environment Secretary further stressed that before owners of establishments be allowed to operate, they need to secure  a business permit from the local government unit and accreditation from the Department of Tourism (DOT) aside from a newly issued ECC.

The DENR reminded owners of establishments to make use of the remaining days prior to the reopening to settle all backlogs in order to make their structure environmental law compliant.

“Dapat before they open they will show us and we will inspect already their establishment. Titignan namin yung quality of the water na lumalabas. I-check naman ng mga iyan if they comply. If they are already compliant then we will order the approval of their ECC,” Cimatu reminded establishment owners.

The agency plans to announce the new measure during the Boracay stakeholders meeting next week. – Vincent Arboleda / Marje Pelayo
