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.

2,000 Clark revelers display support for ‘Pablo’ victims

By Tonette Orejas, Inquirer Central Luzon


CLARK FREEPORT— At least 2,000 Christmas revelers formed a heart-shaped chain here on Thursday night, lit candles and prayed for hope and courage for survivors of Typhoon “Pablo” in northeastern Mindanao. Stretching 250 meters on the parade grounds, the human chain was the second that employees of the government-owned Clark Development Corp. (CDC) formed since Tropical Storm “Sendong” struck Mindanao last year, CDC executive vice president Philip Panlilio told the crowd. Merrymakers in the fourth Clarksiyahan began giving donations but the event’s charity leg was able to raise P1 million from more than 700 CDC employees who canceled their Christmas party to pool that amount. Panlilio said the amount raised went up to a total of P1.2 million as the CDC management gave P100,000 while the Clark Investors and Locators Association contributed another P100,000. “In solidarity with our fellow Filipinos in Mindanao who are now struggling to rebuild their lives from the disaster, we beam our love and prayers for their safety and courage through this human chain,” he said. Panlilio said the disaster that struck Central Luzon following the 1991 eruptions of Mt. Pinatubo and its yearly lahar flows until 1997 taught Pampanga residents the importance of helping others in need. The P1.2 million they pooled would be turned over to the Department of Social Welfare and Development, which also received the P2 million the CDC raised for Sendong survivors in the cities of Cagayan de Oro and Iligan last year. Thursday night’s crowd was treated to a spectacle of dancing lights, care of six giant lanterns made by craftsmen in the Pampanga capital of San Fernando. Gov. Lilia Pineda said the provincial government brought the lanterns to Clark for the second time to help promote tourism in this free port hosting an international airport.

Patient hits mayor for being ‘anti-poor’

By Rey Navales

ANGELES CITY -- A Renal Care Unit (RCU) patient at the Rafael Lazatin Memorial Medical Center, formerly known as Ospital Ning Angeles (ONA), assailed Sunday Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan for being “anti-poor.”

Armando Manalo, a patient from Barangay Cutcut, hit Pamintuan for expensive charges at the RCU, even for indigent patients who practically have no means to pay.

“Kahit sabihin pa ng RCU na mura na ang presyo nila kumpara sa ibang ospital, mabigat pa rin sa bulsa ng mahihirap ang sinisingil nila,” Manalo said, adding: “Pangako ni Mayor noong eleksyon, P500 lang ang magiging singil sa renal care, pero ngayon, umaabot ng P2,000 hanggang P4,000 ang binabayaran ng mga pasyente.”

The base charge rates for dialysis treatments at the RCU are determined through a patient classification system. Class 1 patients are charged P1,700, Class 2 patients are charged P1,375, while Class 3 patients are charged P700, for each dialysis treatment.

However, these do not include other fees such as the P1,200 fee for Renagen, the formula used for kidney detoxification; the doctor’s professional fee, which varies depending on the patient’s classification; the P100 miscellaneous fee as contribution for the hospital; and the additional P700 emergency fee in the case of patients with no scheduled slots.

This is not the first time that an indigent patient expressed complaints regarding the fees being charged at RCU.

Earlier, Chris Aquino, the son of another RCU patient, also complained about the P700 “emergency fee.”

Aquino said this “emergency fee” is charged on top of their father’s dialysis treatment fee amounting to P463, the doctor’s professional fee amounting to P350 and the miscellaneous fee amounting to P100.

Given this breakdown of fees, the Aquino family pays P1,613 for every dialysis treatment.

“Parating sinasabi nung mga tao sa front desk sa amin na kung tutuusin ‘cheap’ na daw ang pinapabayad sa amin,” Aquino said. “Siguro para sa kanila ‘cheap’ lang yung halagang P1,600 pero para sa aming mga mahihirap, malaking halaga na yun.”

“ONA nalang ang inaasahan naming mahihirap na pasyente pero hanggang doon nagigipit pa rin kami. Mukhang wala namang pakialam si Mayor Pamintuan sa aming mahihirap,” added Aquino.

Employees: CDC execs won’t follow AVA ruling

By Charlene A. Cayabyab


CLARK FREEPORT–Executives from the Clark Development Corporation (CDC) continues to ignore the directive of the Accredited Voluntary Arbitrator (AVA) to implement the signed collective bargaining agreement between CDC and its supervisory union. Vice President Pepito Galang, chief of the Corporate Services Group (CSG), said the CDC management is not inclined to grant the order of the arbitrator lawyer Froilan Bacungan despite deciding on the constitutionality of the agreement made by CDC and its union—the Association of CDC Supervisory Personnel (ACSP). Bacungan decision’s favored the ACSP on November 5, recognizing their constitutional right to collective bargaining as provided in Article XIII, Sec. 3 of the Constitution. However, after the mandatory 10 calendar days from receipt of award, by which it is deemed final and executory, the CDC management failed to implement the decision. Because of the failure to execute the decision, Bacungan called for a hearing for the implementation of his order on Nov. 28 but after the motion of the CDC counsels were denied repeatedly, the CDC officials led by Galang walked out. Aside from Galang, others who walked out from the hearing to resolve the issue were lawyers Joan Vitug-Evangelista and Bonifacio Tarenio; and Human Resource Department Manager Thelma Ocampo, together with an attorney from the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC). ACSP President Victor Barbieto viewed their walk out as “blatant disregard by the CDC management of existing procedures of the Labor Code and the basic rights of employees to CBA as enshrined in the Philippine Constitution.” In the order, Bacungan directed CDC to implement immediately economic provisions of the CBA, which includes among others, salary increases, Personal Economic Relief Allowance (PERA), uniform allowance, clothing allowance and other benefits under the CBA. With the continued defiance of CDC to implement lawful order, Bacungan directed the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) through the regional office of the National Conciliation amd Mediation Board in the City of San Fernando to see to it that the decision is effected immediately. The CDC management has earlier elevated this case for review to the Court of Appeals and is requesting for a TRO from the court. “This move on the part of management is a clear manifestation of the CDC’s bad faith in the negotiation process and intention not to implement the decision of the AVA,” Barbieto said. Meanwhile, despite the non-implementation of the CBA the members of the ACSP are still appealing to the CDC management to give the rightful salary increase and other benefits of the CDC supervisory personnel in the spirit of the Christmas season. “It has been five years since we have an increased in our salary and it’s only through CBA that we can negotiate for the increase of salaries and benefits of the members of the union,” Barbieto said. The whole CBA package to date amounts to close to P6 million, “which is a small amount considering that the CDC supervisory employees waited five years for this increase.” The ACSP officers lamented the total disregard of CDC management to their plight and even sued their own employees in court, instead of finding ways to resolve the issue for the benefit of all. Barbieto also said the prolonged CBA negotiation deadlock, and non-implementation fiasco stems from this wrong premise on the part of the CDC management. The CBA was signed between CDC and ACSP on March 2012 during the term of former CDC President Felipe Antonio Remollo.

LDV/ZST/MDDR/PS/PJN

With the establishment of the first CAE aviation training center in the country, he said the Philippines is emerging as a vibrant 21st century success story in aviation. Frederick also said that an estimated 20,000 new pilots will be needed worldwide for the next 20 years. “Training pilots for today’s complex aircraft and increasing airspace and airports, requires the most advanced simulation technology and most capable, experienced instruction. Airline professionals who will learn at this facility entrust us to provide the world-class training they have come to expect from CAE,” he added. Meanwhile, Gokongwei, in a statement, said “we are delighted to collaborate with CAE in bringing a world-class training facility to the region. This training center will be pivotal to meeting the training requirements not only of Cebu Pacific, but also the region’s pilot and flight training requirements in the next 10 years or so.” The PAAT represents an approximate US $ 50 million joint investment. The facility will cater to Airbus A319/320/321 series pilot type-rating training requirements and will provide “wet” instructor-led type-rating training for CEB’s current and new-hire pilots. Initially, recurrent, conversion and jet indoctrination training will be available to other Airbus operators.






Pampanga gov warns residents vs illegal recruiters

By (PNA)

FFC/ZST/MDDR/PS/JNC


CLARK FREEPORT, Pampanga, Dec. 3 (PNA) -- Governor Lilia G. Pineda has warned her constituents against illegal recruiters, especially those who are applying for job abroad.

The governor issued the warning during the orientation seminar on the precautions in hunting jobs abroad which was participated by different Barangay Public Employment Office (PESO) held recently at Fontana Convention Center here.

The provincial government hosted the seminar to equip the PESO about the modus operandi of the illegal recruiters.

“We don’t want another Joselito Zapanta who ended up in jail. We are hosting this seminar in order to protect the Kapampangans on the modus operandi of the illegal recruiters,” Pineda said.

Zapanta, a native from Mexico town, was sentenced to death through decapitation in Saudi Arabia after allegedly killing his Sudanese landlord.

The governor, along with the Pampanga Mayor’s League led the fund raising for Zapanta’s blood money amounting to P44 million in exchange for his liberty.

Four months was given as an extension to raise the blood money.

Earlier, the Pampanga Association of Capitol Employees (PACE) has offered P350,000 donation to the two children of Zapanta that will be used for their education.

The Pampanga Mayors’ League, on the other hand, has pledged P2 million while each town mayor committed to give P100,000.

Angeles City plans to put up cancer treatment center

By (PNA)

SCS/ZST/HPM/PS/JSD


ANGELES CITY, Pampanga, Dec. 2 (PNA) -- Following the successful operations of the Angeles City Renal Care Center that provides dialysis treatment to kidney patients and the MediKalinga where minor surgeries are conducted free of charge, Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan is aiming for another first -- a chemotherapy center for cancer patients.

“The success of the Renal Care Center and the MediKalinga has encouraged me to go further -- to build a chemotherapy unit of the city hospital to try to combat the world’s number one killer disease, cancer,” Pamintuan said.

He said, however, that at this point, the project is still a long way to go.

But he noted that the dialysis treatment center also faced a lot of challenges before it was realized.

“I believe that a lot of medical institutions and professionals, here and abroad, would support such an ambitious project, which would be a pioneering healthcare- related project by a local government,” the mayor said.

He said the chemotherapy project will be part of his expanded Contract with the Angelenos (CWA), an eight-point program that he plans to be his platform of government if elected again as mayor.

“We have already implemented most of the key components of the CWA. Now, we are going to expand it to include more components, including the possible chemotherapy treatment center as part of our overall health program,” he said.

He said he plans to tap again the World Medical Relief Inc., which has been the city government's partner in the building and operation of the Renal Care Center and the expansion of the Ospital Ning Angeles.

With 19 dialysis machines, the Angeles City Renal Care Center is regularly providing treatment to 221 patients, most of whom needed to be treated thrice a week.

So far, a total of 9,431 treatments have been given by the center since it was established in June 2011.

Kidney patients pay much less in the treatment center than when they are treated in private hospitals and clinics. Many poor patients are treated almost free of charge, he said.

The recently established MediKalinga, on the other hand, performs minor surgeries free of charge. Over 1,344 minor operations have been performed at the MediKalinga.

Major surgeries, on the other hand, are referred to the Ospital Ning Angeles, where operations are also conducted free of charge for poor patients.

Getting to the Hot Air Balloon Fiesta site was one of the biggest problems for visitors traveling from Manila. Returning home after the fiesta program caused even more problems even for those who drove their own cars to Clark. Traffic congestions and chaos in getting out of the parking areas were extremely serious as thousands of visitors all decided to leave at the same time. Lining up at the gate to purchase admission ticket to the Clark Balloon fiesta was another major source of complaint. Poor quality of meals, service and dining facilities inside the festival grounds had caused a lot of dissatisfaction among visitors in past Hot Air Balloon fiestas in Clark.

The Clark Hot Air Balloon Festival is one of the most popular events not only in Pampanga but in the Philippines in general. Experienced travelers and those who have attended one or more Hot Air Balloon festivals in Philippines before are smart enough to firm up their bookings and obtain tickets to one of the packages to avoid the aggravations that had plagued this popular event in Pampanga in the past.
