Lacson mum on resignation of PARR coordinators for Eastern Visayas, Tacloban

TANAUAN, Leyte - Presidential Assistant for Recovery and Rehabilitation (PARR) Panfilo Lacson refused to discuss on the resignation of PARR regional coordinators. Thus, Lacson said he is still pushing for the establishment of a satellite office here despite resignation of businessman Robert Castaares as PARR regional coordinators and Oliver Cam as coordinator for Tacloban City. Lacson recently inspected the new office this week and will appoint new coordinators to replace Castaares and Cam, who both resigned last month. I dont want to discuss that because there are sensitive issues involved. Actually, he did not resigned, I told him to resign, said Lacson when asked by reporters to comment on Castaares resignation, but refused to answer further questions. Lacson, who witnessed the turnover of the first batch of houses for storm survivors in this town on April 12, also declined to name the possible replacement of Castanares.

The low pressure area (LPA) which resulted from the weakening of tropical depression Domeng continues to move closer to Eastern Visayas, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Monday afternoon. In an interview, PAGASA weather forecaster Gener Quitlong said the LPA was projected to make landfall in Eastern Visayas by Monday evening or early Tuesday morning. Because of this, Quitlong said Eastern Visayas will have cloudy skies with moderate to occasionally heavy rains which may trigger flash floods and landslides. He advised residents

TACLOBAN CITYThe regional office of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) said that several jail facilities in the region would undergo repair. This was revealed by Jail Senior Superintendent Hernan Grande, BJMP regional director, who added that two more jail facilities would be constructed to address decongestion among inmates. According to Grande, their national office has allocated P13.32 million for the repair of various jail facilities in the region and another P9 million for the construction of additional jails. The BJMP regional director admitted that the repair or upgrading of these facilities came in the wake of the April 2 jail break in Calbayog City that resulted for the escape of 16 inmates. He said that the jail facilities in Tacloban and eight others would undergo repair works. For the Tacloban City prison jail, the government has allocated P6 million for the repair. Other similar facilities would undergo repair: Alangalang with a budget of P250,000;Baybay C i t y, P 2 5 0 , 0 0 0 ; C a r i g a r a , P500,000; Dulag, P60,000; Ormoc City,P600,000; Palo,P200,00 and Tanauan,P60,000.

One is in Guiuan, Eastern Samar with a budget of P7 million while another is in Burauen, Leyte at P2 million. Grande said that the jailbreak in Calbayog has caught the attention of their national office reason why these jail facilities were given allocation for repair.

Quitlong said the LPA will also affect the rest of the Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Bicol Region and Mimaropa, inducing cloudy skies with scattered light to moderate rains in these regions. As of 4:00 p.m. Monday, the LPA was spotted some 125 kilometers southeast of Guiuan, Eastern samar (10.5N, 127.0E). Quitlong said the weather disturbance continued to move very slowly due to the presence of a ridge of high pressure area (HPA) over Luzon that prevents the LPA from moving

insurance program this year. Crop insurance is really important because it will protect us if natural calamities happen again, Bernabe said during the launching of the premium subsidy scheme. Usually, a farmer pays P890 for every P10, 000 worth of insurance coverage for both rice and corn. The state-owned crop insurance firm also offers 46 types of insurance packages for high value commercial crops. The P50 million aid for Leyte, Southern Leyte and Biliran farmers and fishermen is part of the P80 million subsidy for Yolanda-affected areas not classified areas in the 20 poorest provinces. The PCICs principal mandate is to provide insurance protection to farmers against losses arising from natural calamities, plant diseases and pest infestations of their rice and corn crops as well as other crops. The agency also provides protection against damage to non-crop agricultural assets. (SARWELL Q.MENIANO)

Intuitive and discursive

THESE are two general ways of knowing, thinking, understanding and communicating. One, the intuitive, is of the automatic, instantaneous type, while the other, the discursive, requires some stages of analysis and reasoning. They need not be opposed to each other. In fact, they should not be, since its good that we develop both of them to the hilt, because they correspond well to our condition in this world. We have need for both of them. Of course, of the two, it is the intuitive that is more perfect, since in our ultimate and definitive statein heaveneverything will be intuitive. In heaven, we can expect to see, know and communicate everything in one go, and not anymore in stages. This affirmation somehow presumes faith, since with reason and the purely human ways of thinking alone, we may not be talking at all of an ultimate and definitive state, much less, of heaven. This means that without faith, our reason can go anywhere and nowhere. Lets hope we can see the intrinsic relationship between faith and reason. The intuitive way depends on the way we areour temperament, dispositions, aptitudes and biases. It also hinges on our experiences and the knowledge accumulated through the years that imbue in us a certain direct affinity and familiarity with certain realities that we can apprehend without much thinking. In the end, the intuitive way is an expression of the kind of spirit we havewhether it is a good spirit or bad, whether it is a spirit of the flesh, of the world, or of God. Its good that we are aware of the variety of spirits that can prevail over us, and know which one to choose. Yes, theres need to have discernment of spirit, not only the one of the others and of the world in general, but also and especially the spirit that each one of us has. We have to be more aware of this need and even more adept in handling it. Thats because being constitutively spiritual by nature, we have to be aware at least of the kind of spirit we have, and develop it properly by connecting it with what we may call the proper and original spirit for usnone other than the Spirit of God, our Creator. This much, St. Paul already hinted when he talked about the spiritual man and the carnal man who, he said, cannot perceive the things that are of the Spirit of God, for it is foolishness to him, and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined. (1 Cor 2,14) Its very telling that St. Paul said that the spiritual man judges all things, and he himself is judged of no man. (1 Cor 2,15) In effect, he is saying how important it is, therefore, to have the proper spirit, that is, the Spirit of God. From these considerations, we can already see how to develop our intuitive way of knowing and understanding. We have to work on our temperament and dispositions observe things and study a lot, etc. Most of all, we have to see to it that our spirit is vitally linked to the Spirit of God through the doctrine of our faith, prayer, sacrifice, virtues, sacraments, etc.

he news never fails to surprise. Months ago, news erupted of how five of our senators and several of our congressmen allegedly allowed bogus nongovernment organizations to use their priority development assistance fund (PDAF), more popularly known to everyone as the pork barrel, to fund non-existent projects. Among the five identified senators, Revilla immediately cried foul and blamed Pnoy for the revelation. It is uncertain from the news whether or not the said solons, should it be supposed that the allegations are true, wittingly allowed the said use of their pork barrel or they were merely duped into believing that the projects they intend to fund were genuine. Just the same, Revilla claims that it was foul to leak that news without first ascertaining its veracity. In discounting the truth of the news, Revilla relied on dirty politicking as the culprit, attributed the disclosure to Malacanang and regarded it a demolition job in its effort to discredit potential Presidential candidates which he claims includes him. Another senator subject of the attack, Marcos, addressed the issue not very differently, vouching to explore the possibility that there may be a political angle to all this in the light of the upcoming presidential elec-

Ever disappearing pork

tion in 2016. But unlike Revilla, Marcos does not appear to be too defensive about it, even lamenting that he is eager to participate in any investigation which will reveal the truth of this matter. And during their privileged speeches before the Senate, Jinggoy and Revilla, vehemently alleged conspiracy among the governments officers in or order for them to be prosecuted by linking their names to the scam headed by Janet Napoles. The issue of scrapping the pork barrel has long been a point of debate among many, lawmakers and non-lawmakers alike. Maybe it should be scrapped as there certainly is luster in the claim that it has been a harbinger of bad tidings, of corruption, of unjust accumulation of wealth. It has been a means to an oppressive end, of furthering their riches at the expense of the taxpaying public. Out in the Holy Land is where Revilla now spends his holy week while Jinggoy is in the US for treatment of his ailing knees. But whether or not there are sufficient reasons to blow the son of a b**** to smithereens is just beside the point. The sham has been done and what Revilla ought to do better than cry like a cowering Cassandra is prove his accusers wrong. The least that he should do is hint his imaginings of being a potential candidate for president in the next elections.

The LPA, which was spotted over the Pacific Ocean last April 4, entered the country as a tropical storm on April 6 and was named Domeng. A day after it entered the Philippine territory or on April 7, it had been downgraded to a tropical depression category. Domeng, the first tropical cyclone to enter the country this month and the fourth this year, weakened back into an LPA last April 10. (PNA)

freely. However, he noted that the LPA has a slim chance of re-intensifying into a tropical depression due to a strong vertical wind shear or winds from different directions that blow into the country and continue to interact with its circulation. Quitlong said that after it hit land, the LPA may not dissipate but it will likely exit the country via the West Philippine Sea on Good Friday. He added that the rest of Mindanao and Luzon, includ-

tive Director Leonardo Sibbaluca said the MOA covers the protection and conservation of the Ulot Watershed Model Forest biodiversity and forest resources as well as development and management of ecotourism and other sustainable development activities in the area. RED Sibbaluca said the UWMF located in the municipalities of Taft and Can-avid in Eastern Samar; Paranas, San Jose de Buan, and Hinabangan in Samar comprises an aggregate area of 86,514 hectares. This is one of the eight watersheds covered by the Samar Island Natural Park (SINP), he said. The SINP where the UWMF is located, is said to be the remaining forest frontier of Region 8, which is harboring a rich and mega diverse plant and animal species that are globally significant. This biological richness however is subject to enormous threat, due to population pressure, natural processes and other factors affecting the governance and utilization of the resources therein. Protecting and conserving the remaining resources of the Samar Island Natural Park and the Ulot Watershed Model Forest is a big challenge for us. We, at the DENR cannot do it alone, that is why we are seeking the help of the different stakeholders to help us protect and conserve this biologically and globally significant natural heritage, RED Sibbaluca said speaking before the different peoples organization, police, military and other stakeholders who attended the MOA signing at the Paranas Municipal Hall on March 27, 2014. For his part, Mayor Felix Babalcon of Paranas, Samar welcomed the opportunity given the LGU particularly its participation in the improved management of the UWMF. He committed to work with the DENR for an extensive campaign on forest protection and law enforcement to deter illegal loggers and charcoal makers from their destructive activities. We are looking at the implementation of livelihood projects as part of the solution to forest destruction. We will also tie up with schools offering Forestry Courses for our scholarship program. We encourage our constituents to let their children take Forestry Course so that in the future they will help in the management of their own forest, Mayor Babalcon stressed. SINP Protected Area Superintendent Angelito Villanueva disclosed that lots of projects are being implemented and are coming along the way for UWMF. These include among others the ongoing ecotourism development projects;

Roxas distributes financial aids to Leyte areas hit by Yolanda

PALO, Leyte- Secretary Mar Roxas of the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) visited Leyte to distribute checks to areas hit by supertyphoon Yolanda. During his visit on April 11 and 12, Roxas distributed a total amount of P801.80 million to 35 areas in Leyte which sustained damages due to Yolanda. And among the recipients was Tacloban with its mayor, Alfred Romualdez, personally receiving the financial assistance. Roxas said that Tacloban received P230.87 million which is about 80 percent of the total amount that he distributed. Tacloban is considered to be the ground zero of Yolandas wrath. The DILG Secretary stressed that the financial assistance should be used by the local governments for the repair of their city or municipal hall; civic centers; public markets and key public infrastructures. According to Roxas in Leyte, out of 40 municipalities hit by Yolanda 35 received checks while the five others will be directly assisted by foreign agencies. A total of 19 mayors or their representatives received their checks in Palo and others received it in Baybay and Ormoc cities. The assistance, according to Roxas, is part of the national governments Recovery Assistance on Yolanda (RAY) to cities and municipalities in Leyte and other areas that sustained damages due to the supertyphoon that hit the Visayas on November 8, 2013. Roxas requested the local chief executives present during the distribution of checks to buy products from their localities and employ local laborers so that the money will circulate within their areas and help in the process revive their economies. Roxas also emphasized that the LGU has the option whether they will handle the construction work or bid them out. He then requested the mayors to construct their structures that could withstand a supertyphoon as much as possible. (LIZBETH ANN ABELLA).

In a statement, Castaares, the regional governor of the Eastern Visayas Chamber of Commerce and Industry (EVCCI) said he quit his post so he could focus on their hotel business expansion. He owns Optimus Assets Inc., the operator of Kuting Reef and other tourism-related ventures in Southern Leyte. I just assisted PARR in the initial coordination and preparation of rehabilitation framework. My engagement with PARR is only on an interim basis while they were looking for a full time coordinator, said Castaares, a former transportation and communication assistant secretary. In the case of Cam, the volunteer city PARR coordinator, told Leyte Samar Daily Express that he also decided to follow Castanares by tendering his own resignation. (My) main reason for disengaging from PARR was the lack of clear direction and action. We felt we could do more helping out within the private sector under the local business chambers, said Cam, who owns the Welcome Home Pensionne in Tacloban. Cam criticized the government for the slow pace in the implementation of Reconstruction Assistance on Yolanda (RAY) in Tacloban City. The government is very slow, even responding to our request for policy issues that would benefit the business sector, he added. Lacson said that RAY implementation is still on track, but not in full swing since PARR has to wait for the final post disaster needs assessment (PDNA) on April 21 before coming up with a master rehabilitation plan. He added that under Republic Act 10121 (Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010, the submission of the PDNA is mandated. The PDNA outlines priorities based on urgency, impact on the community and importance. The report is the governments final blueprint for damage, loss and recovery plans. I first thought of appealing to the private sector knowing that the national government would not be ready to plan, much less implement reconstruction and rehabilitation of the devastated areas because of some international protocols that we must adhere to, Lacson said. The former senator urged local government units to be proactive while waiting for the full implementation of RAY by forging partnerships with the private sector in some reconstruction projects.

In effect, our intuitive way should be driven by love, the proper love which is the love of God. That is the kind of love that understands everything. Compassion and empathy make us know and understand beyond what reason can articulate. Thats why St. Paul said: charity bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. (1 Cor 13,7) The discursive way is also very important in our life since this the more natural way of understanding, knowing and communicatthe International Model Forest Network Funded Project dubbed as Forest Landscape Restoration, reforestation and establishment of tree plantations using the funds generated from the trees cut by the Millennium Challenge Corporation road development project, forest development project funded by the German International Cooperation which is already approved in principle and Community Based Forest Management Project activities regularly funded by the DENR.

ing given our conditions now. It lends itself more easily to our human need for unity and communion. With our present conditions, the intuitive way has a very limited range and is often stuck in one stage or level. It is the discursive way that makes things going, RA Form nO. 10.1(LCRO)

since it favors dialogue and a continuing discovery of things. We also have to sharpen this discursive way by having an open-mind, being very observant and eager to relate things and discover relationships. We have to study the art of logic and

productive dialogue. As in the intuitive way, this discursive way is best pursued when it is inspired by true love. Thats when we know what and how to say things, have a good sense of timing and a very discriminating choice of words, etc.
