LINGAYEN, Pangasinan - With exactly 19 days more to go before the 2012 Palarong Pambansa opens on May 6, at least 258 athletes from Region 4B in the Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan (MIMAROPA) region already arrived in Pangasinan. | |||
These athletes that arrived in Lingayen on Monday (April 17) comprise MIMAROPA's initial delegation as 300 more athletes are still arriving in Lingayen by Friday. | |||
The MIMAROPA delegation was the first to arrive in Pangasinan, this year's host of the Palarong Pambansa. The other 17 delegations from across the country are set to arrive between now and May 5 this year. | |||
This year's Palaro will last until May 12. | |||
The billeting of MIMAROPA delegation is at the Tandoc Elementary School in San Carlos City, some eight kilometers from the main playing venue at Narciso Ramos Sports and Civic Center in Lingayen. | |||
Asked why they came too early, a spokesman of the delegation said they arrived ahead of the other delegation to give them enough time to practice together which they cannot do in their area as they come from different islands in MIMAROPA. | |||
He said their athletes want to acclimatize themselves first in Pangasinan before finally plunging into action. | |||
Upon arrival, the members of the delegation were already briefed on the some rules and regulations to be enforced in the billeting area as well as in the playing venues. | |||
Meanwhile, preparations for the different playing venues of the 2012 Palarong Pambansa is now almost complete. | |||
The venues are Lingayen, Binmaley, Dagupan City and San Carlos City. (PNA) | |||

BOAC, Marinduque, April 17 (PIA) -– The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) donated a patrol boat to the municipality of Boac on April 12 to put the transport and sufficiency of aquatic supplies under control. | |||
The boat will be housed in Bgy. Buliasnin under “Buliasnin Bantay Dagat” composite to the Philippine National Police (PNP), Office of the Mayor, Fishery Group (FARM-C), and BFAR-Marinduque. | |||
According to OIC Regional Director Emmanuel H. Asis, 96 percent of fish production is from Palawan and the rest of the four percent are from its neighboring provinces, making Marinduque as one of the major fishing grounds in the MIMAROPA region. | |||
The marginal fishermen will benefit the use of the boat, which was made possible under the government's Bantay Dagat Project. | |||
Mayor Roberto M. Madla said this will be vital in protecting the island form illegal fishermen. | |||
He added that the Boac municipal government is willing to share the boat to other municipalities, as the need rises, provided they would agree on the terms they have set to maintain it. | |||
Madla expressed his appreciation to BFAR Region IV-B, Asst. Dir. Rolando Miranda, BFAR staff and to all present including locals during the blessing and turn over program hosted by Rosemarie Rivadenera, Agricultural Technologist-Municipal Agriculture Office, Boac. | |||

The locals are not in any mood to argue whether moryones should be spelled “Moryon” with a “y” or moriones, with an “i” noting that while Moriones in Tondo has been named since Spanish times’, not a single masked man can be seen in that congested part of the Manila during the Lenten season. | The locals are not in any mood to argue whether moryones should be spelled “Moryon” with a “y” or moriones, with an “i” noting that while Moriones in Tondo has been named since Spanish times’, not a single masked man can be seen in that congested part of the Manila during the Lenten season. | ||
