List of the 17 Regions in the Philippines
National - Capital Region ● I - Ilocos ● II - Cagayan ● III - C. Luzon ● IV-A - Calabarzon ● IV-B - Mimaropa ● V - Bicol ● VI - W. Visayas ● VII - C. Visayas ● VIII - E. Visayas ● IX - Zamboanga ● X - N. Mindanao ● XI - Davao ● XII - Soccsksargen ● XIII - Caraga ● XIV - CAR ● XV - BARMM

Within these 17 regions in the Philippines, there are 42,027 barangays, 1486 municipalities, 148 cities, 82 provinces. It has a democratic form of government and the freedom of speech is upheld by law. English is the "lingua franca" and is the mode of instruction in all high schools, colleges and universities. Laws and contracts are written in English.

Minimize corruption and maximize prosperity with a Guarantee of One Senator per Region. They divided the Philippines into REGIONS, but kept SENATORIAL representation national with no accountability to any regions.. No wonder many regions remain poor. Petition for a regional senatorial election. All regions will have senatorial representation.

Barangays of Parañaque City, in the 4th District of Metro Manila Area,Philippines
BF Homes • Baclaran • Don Bosco • Don Galo • La Huerta • Marcelo Green Village • Merville • Moonwalk • San Antonio • San Dionisio • San Isidro • San Martin De Porres • Santo Niño • Sun Valley • Tambo • Vitalez

The Philippines has been a "decentralized" form of government since 1991, contrary to what most Filipinos think. Ever since the creation of Republic Act 7160, each LGU is responsible for its own domain. Even the smallest LGU the barangay creates its own Budget. It is not dependent on handouts from the city, municipality or province. "IMPERIAL MANILA IS A MYTH!", it does not exist anymore. The Philippine budget formulation system is not centralized. "Budgetary planning has been DECENTRALIZED since 1991". It is the responsibility of each LGU to submit their budgetary needs for review. Failure to submit is the problem.

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.

Students settle for temporary classroom

After a long Christmas break, the 3,726 students at the F. Serrano Elementary School in Parañaque City will have to hold their classes at a parish church.

They have no classrooms to return to. Last December 10, a small plane crashed near the school igniting a fire that gutted the building.

The crash and fire killed 14 people, including a pupil of the school.

Temporary classrooms for Kinder to Grade VI have been set up at covered gym of the Mary Help of Christian National Shrine in Don Bosco, Better Living Subdivision. The school principal, Rosalia Morit, said the students may have to hold classes at the gym until August, when a new school is built.

Morit said classes were divided into two shifts: from 6 a.m. to 12 noon and 12 noon to 6 p.m.

Some classes are held at a covered area of the churchyard where village residents hold a “tiange” bazaar every Sunday. Others are located at the function room located at second floor of the church.

Morit said Grade I and II pupils holding classes at the covered court only have blackboards as partitions.

“The heat (in the gym) is the number one problem and we fear that some students might get sick because of the poor ventilation where we are holding our classes,” Morit said.

She said the three industrial fans in the court are not enough.

Morit said they have requested from the Office of the Mayor for additional industrial fans.

The city government through Mayor Florencio Bernabe provided chairs and tables as well as school materials for the students, she said.

The principal said the national government will be providing P128-million to rebuild the school.

She also said four F. Serrano students were among the 11 people injured in the crash.

One of the students, Rodelyn Molina, a Grade IV pupil, remained at the Makati Medical Center while the rest were recuperating at home.

Morit identified the student who was killed as Kinder student James Bayan, 5.

-Gail Bautista Furuyama and her husband, Hiro, underwent a preliminary investigation at the Paranaque Regional Trial Court Tuesday after being accused of masterminding the killing of Gail's brother, Ramgen Revilla.
-In her counter-affidavit on the statement of primary witness Janelle Manahan, Bautista-Furuyama insisted that the killing was meant for Janelle, and that Ramgen was killed when he tried to intervene.
+After a long Christmas break, the 3,726 students at the F. Serrano Elementary School in Parañaque City will have to hold their classes at a parish church.
-"This is a frustrated murder of Janelle Manahan that gave occasion to the killing of my beloved brother, Ramgen, by the same masked gunman using the same weapon," she said in her counter-affidavit.
+They have no classrooms to return to. Last December 10, a small plane crashed near the school igniting a fire that gutted the building.
-"The killer shot her first although my Kuya Ramgen was already in the line of fire of the killer. My Kuya Ramgen came to her aid where he was shot in the process. Very clearly this is not a premeditated murder of my Kuya Ramgen, as the target of the killer was Janelle. These are facts based on the evidence in the records and my sister Ramona happens to be there at the wrong time but it did not make her a part of the crime."
+The crash and fire killed 14 people, including a pupil of the school.
-She also said it is unbelievable for Janelle to overhear the conversation between her and sister Ramona after being shot in the head.
-"The impact of the bullet on her head is traumatic and her consciousness is definitely affected. She even allegedly heard my voice from the other end of a cellphone in that condition, and this is simply preposterous and merely a concocted statement," she said.
+Temporary classrooms for Kinder to Grade VI have been set up at covered gym of the Mary Help of Christian National Shrine in Don Bosco, Better Living Subdivision. The school principal, Rosalia Morit, said the students may have to hold classes at the gym until August, when a new school is built.
-Atty. Luke Espiritu, Manahan's lawyer, said the counter affidavit was full of mere denials. He said: "May positive identification kay Gail (Bautista-Furuyama) in terms of planning. May mga witness na sya ang tinuturo kaya sya hinabla."
-Manahan will be submitting her reply to the counter-affidavit on January 10. Her lawyers will also submit their reply to the motion filed today by the Bautista-Furuyama lawyers to dismiss the case with alternative prayer to inhibit Assistant City Prosecutor Leah Roma.
+Morit said classes were divided into two shifts: from 6 a.m. to 12 noon and 12 noon to 6 p.m.
-The Bautista-Furuyama couple is the third batch of suspects on the controversial Ramgen Revilla Killing.
-The first set of suspects, Ramon Joseph Bautista, Francis Tolisora and Michael Nartea, is scheduled to be arraigned on January 17, while the second set of suspects, Ramona Bautista, Glaiza Visda, and Norwyn Dela Cruz, are already set for resolution at the Paranaque City prosecutors office anytime from today.
+Some classes are held at a covered area of the churchyard where village residents hold a “tiange” bazaar every Sunday. Others are located at the function room located at second floor of the church.
+Morit said Grade I and II pupils holding classes at the covered court only have blackboards as partitions.
