GLAN, Sarangani, Oct 5 (PIA) — The local government here has signed a memorandum of agreement with a big German ecological firm, which will put up a $100-million ultra-modern solid waste management and disposal plant at this burgeoning resort town in the south under the build-operate-transfer (BOT) scheme.
GLAN, Sarangani, Oct 11 (PIA)--The twelfth staging of the Lubi-Lubi sa Glan Festival last October 8, was a rousing success, with

previous Lubi-Lubi combined.
The agreement also provides that Herhof will own, operate and maintain all Mechanical Biological Treatment (MBT) Stabilat-R plant facilities that the company will develop here for municipal solid waste processing, waste-water treatment, sewage sludge, leachate treatment for landfills, methane/biogas extraction, hospital waste plant, thermal treatment of secondary fuels, gasification processes, anaerobic treatment and possible power-generation technologies or the so-called “EVA Power Plant.”
Throughout the week-long festivities, which hit the ground running on October 1, the festival area, particularly the party zone, was thronged with revelers out for a good time, and the kiosk operators and vendors had never it so good, making a killing from sales on foods, drinks and other fun items.
To ensure the successful operation of all its future facilities as well as help generate local employment here, the company will conduct employee training programs on maintenance, safety and over-all plant management and will only hire bona fide residents as workers and plant operators provided they are qualified in accordance with the Labor Code the Philippines.
“The festival mood was unprecedented. People from all walks of life, from far and wide, turned up in almost all events we had put on for this year’s celebration. I promise you we will go one better next Lubi-Lubi,” said Mayor Victor James “Tata” Yap, Sr.
The local government, on the other hand, will allow Herhof untrammeled use of its present landfill at Barangay Mudan for 25 years, renewable for another 25 years, as construction site of Phase 1 of the project at no cost to the company.
The festivities opened at 7 p.m., October 1, with a great basketball game at the Atty. Enrique D. Yap, Sr. Cultural Center, followed by a pop & rock concert at Plaza Rizal by the DXMD band.
If the local government can bring in 1,000 tons of garbage daily at the six-hectare municipal dumpsite within two years from the signing of the agreement, an additional area of at least nine hectares will be provided to the company for its power plant facility under the same terms and conditions.
Day 2 and 3 saw two other great basketball matches and a Moro song and dance contest, which the town’s multi-ethnic public enjoyed to the

hilt.
When already in place, the project will also serve as a major revenue-earner in that other towns, cities or provinces can make use of the facilities for their own garbage disposal after paying the dumping charges or “tipping fees”, with the town and the company sharing the income equally.
Early morning of Day 4 was greeted with a fun run from the Municipal Ground to the Marker, where a Thanksgiving Mass was held, then back to the municipal gym at 7 p.m. for the Global Glanians Social Night, where they danced the night away. Another concert, featuring the town’s very own Glanians Band and sponsored by SMB/Coca-Cola, wrapped up Day 4.
With the minimum daily requirement of 1,000 tons of garbage in the bag because of the additional load from outside sources, the company will start Phase II of the project--the power plant facility, which will use treated and recycled garbage as fuel.
October 5 was literally a red-letter day for the SK Federation of Board Member James P. Yap, which conducted a blood-letting at Glan Training Center between 8 a.m. and 12 noon. At 1 to 6 p.m., it was the turn of the senior citizens and the womenfolk for their own show and celebration.
The agreement also provides that when the company recoups its investment after 25 years of operation, it shall turn over its facilities to the local government under the BOT scheme.
Serving as finale for the day’s events was the hilarious DOBLE KARA & Hip-Hop Dance Contest conducted jointly by the SK Federation and Bombo Radyo at the Atty. Enrique D. Yap, Sr. Cultural

On Day 8, Foundation Day, it was showtime, kicking off with a civic military parade at 7:30 a.m., followed by the spectacular Lubi-Lubi

of the morning.

Dietary supplement is a product that contains vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, enzymes, and/or other ingredients intended to supplement the diet. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has special labeling requirements for dietary supplements and treats them as foods, not drugs.

Manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients are prohibited from marketing products that are adulterated or misbranded. That means that these firms are responsible for evaluating the safety and labeling of their products before marketing to ensure that they meet all the requirements of DSHEA and FDA regulations.

Wars of ancient history were about possessions, territory, power, control, family, betrayal, lover's quarrel, politics and sometimes religion.

But we are in the Modern era and supposedly more educated and enlightened .

Think about this. Don't just brush off these questions.

  • Why is RELIGION still involved in WARS? Isn't religion supposed to be about PEACE?
  • Ask yourself; What religion always campaign to have its religious laws be accepted as government laws, always involved in wars and consistently causing WARS, yet insists that it's a religion of peace?

WHY??

There are only two kinds of people who teach tolerance:
  1. The Bullies. They want you to tolerate them so they can continue to maliciously deprive you. Do not believe these bullies teaching tolerance, saying that it’s the path to prevent hatred and prejudice.
  2. The victims who are waiting for the right moment to retaliate. They can’t win yet, so they tolerate.

Location of Sarangani, Philippines

Source: Wikipedia - Vebatim

Sarangani is a province of the Philippines located in the SOCCSKSARGEN region in Mindanao. Its capital is Alabel and borders South Cotabato to the north and Davao del Sur to the east.

Sarangani is part of the South Cotabato-Sultan Kudarat-Sarangani-Gen. Santos City (Socsksargen) development cluster, and is linked by paved roads to the international airport and world-class fish port of Gen. Santos City. Good roads and regular flights through Gen. Santos City allow the province easy access to Manila, Cebu, Davao City, as well as the rest of the Socsksargen areas. Gen. Santos City’s airport has one of the country’s longest runways.

The province is situated as the country’s major gateway to the Brunei-Indonesia-Malaysia-the Philippines - East Asean Growth Area. With its proximity to its regional counterparts, Sarangani is in a unique position to marshal its resources, entice tourists and investors, and compete in an international market under a borderless trade regime.

Strategically located at the southernmost tip of Mindanao, the province is protected by the resource-rich Sarangani Bay. Beyond this is the Celebes Sea, which is the province’s access to the rest of the world.

Bordered by over 230 kms. of unspoiled coastline, Sarangani offers more than 4,400 sq. kms. of typhoon-free land and marine resources, largely untapped tourism potentials, and vast investment possibilities.

The province is divided into two parts, separated by the Sarangani Bay and General Santos City, and it used to be part of South Cotabato until it was made an independent province in 1992.

History of Sarangani, Philippines

Source: Wikipedia - Verbatim

The early inhabitants who first inhabited Sarangani were the indigenous natives, called "MunaTo," a native term for "first people."

In 1942, the Japanese troops occupied Southern Cotabato (now. Sarangani).

In 1945, Filipino troops of the 6th, 10th, 101st and 102nd Infantry Division of the Philippine Commonwealth Army and 10th Infantry Regiment of the Philippine Constabulary entered and liberated in Southern Cotabato (now. Sarangani) and fought against the Japanese Imperial Army forces during the Battle of Cotabato at the end of World War II under the Japanese Occupation.

Before its inception in 1992, Sarangani was part of South Cotabato and held its title as the Third District of South Cotabato. The province was created by Republic Act No. 7228 on March 16, 1992, penned by the late Congressman, James L. Chiongbian. His wife, Priscilla L. Chiongbian is the first Governor of Sarangani. They are known as the Father and Mother of Sarangani Province.

Sarangani celebrates its foundation anniversary every month of November, named as "MunaTo Festival."

Kaya Iloilo sweeps Group B in Copa '21

MANILA – Kaya Iloilo pipped Mendiola with a 6-0 beating on Wednesday night to complete a sweep of Group B action in the Copa Paulino Alcantara at the PFF National Training Centre in Carmona.

A Jovin Bedic brace in the first half set the tone for the inaugural tournament champ even as the club netted three goals in each of the two halves to seal the top seed in its group ahead of the semifinals next week.

Bedic capitalized on an erroneous Mendiola attempt to keep the ball out of his reach and quickly raced inside the penalty box to open the scoring for Kaya Iloilo in the 11th minute.
