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: 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. The victims who are waiting for the right moment to retaliate. They can’t win yet, so they tolerate.

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.

Soldiers help build village school

MANILA, Philippines — The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) has stepped up its program dubbed “Gusto Kong Mag-Aral” (I want to study)” after it turned over to residents of a remote barangay in Bicol province a two-classroom school building constructed by soldiers.

Pandan village in Castilla town in Sorsogon province was the latest recipient of the AFP's “Gusto Kong Mag-Aral” project.

The Department of Education (DepEd) and the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) thru the National Development Support Command (NADESCOM) together with the local government unit of Castilla town and Sorsogon province and ABS-CBN Sagip Kapamilya, joined in an effort to address the problem particularly in Sorsogon.

Maj. Emmanuel Garcia, the AFP-Nadescom public affairs officer, said “Gusto kong Mag-aral” involves a series of projects consisting of construction of classrooms in differentparts of the country and partnering with different organizations and individuals to provide better quality education to marginalized communities.

Garcia said that the project was hatched when the groundbreaking and construction of the twoclassroom building was started last April 14, 2011 in Barangay Yunot, Bulalacao, Oriental Mindoro and its subsequent turn-over on July 19.

“Several school buildings are now being constructed under this partnership in Barangay Salvacion, Albuera, Leyte; Barangay Dicamay, San Mariano, Isabela; Barangay Pangi, Maco, Compostela Valley; Barangay San Jose, Sto. Tomas, Davao del Norte; Barangay Cabangcalan, Aroroy, Masbate; Barangay Calingatnan, Borongan, Eastern Samar; and Pinukpuk Central, Pinukpuk Kalinga province. Three more will be started in the coming weeks,” said Garcia.

Barangay Pandan is one of the 34 villages of Castilla, a 3rd class municipality and the hometown of Gen. Eduardo SL Oban Jr., the current Armed Forces Chief of Staff.

The inadequate number of classrooms, according to teachers, was the main reason why they cannot accept more students. The two-classroom school building will now allow the school to accept students up to the 4th year next school year.

“With the additional classrooms, teachers said they we will be able to open the 4th year class which will benefit at least 300 students from Pandan and five other barangays who walk several kilometers to go to the school in Barangay Dinapa where there are school rooms to accommodate them,” said Garcia.

During the turnover ceremony, parents of school children in the barangay said the new classrooms will help lessen the cost of travel of their children who are forced to enroll at another village, Barangay Dinapa due to the lack of rooms in Pandan.

As this developed, the Office of the Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) headed by Secretary Imelda Nicolas promised the people of Pandan that additional help will be provided by the Commission for Filipinos Overseas for another school building next year, according to the Nadescom PAO.

“The construction of the school building itself is a product of the cooperation of the people of the barangay and soldiers from the 903rd Infantry Brigade, the 9th Infantry Division of the Philippine Army and the local populace who provided unskilled labor while skilled labor was provided by 565th Engineer Construction Battalion of the 51st Engineer Brigade of the Army,” said Garcia.

Donations and many add-ons like books, blackboards, chairs, tables, cabinets and other school materials poured in from different partner organizations such as the Commission on Filipino Overseas, Technological Education , Department of Trade and Industry, Philippine Information Agency, Department of Tourism, Department of Agriculture, and from individual donors.

“The school building coupled with add-ons was completed with only P1.05 million total cost which is way below the P1.4 million standard cost of a project with the same quality and dimensions; without the add-ons,” Garcia
