Province of Isabela - Archived News

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.

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.

DOLE 2 to provide fishing gears to Aetas, Dumagats of Maconacon and Divilacan

MACONACON, Isabela-At least 400 Aeta-residents in Maconacon and 200 in Divilacan will be provided with fishing gears as an initial assistance to them by the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) 2 in order to increase the volume of their fish catch.

This was disclosed by DOLE 2 Director Sixto T. Rodriguez in his visit to the coastal towns last March 23-24 to bring the Department’s programs closer to displaced workers , marginal fisherfolk and Indigenous Peoples.

Based on the assessment made by the DOLE and the local government officials, the residents need fishing boat and fishing gears. The disadvantaged women and marginal farmers need additional source of income and indigenous peoples need to be mainstreamed.

Rodriguez, who is the first DOLE regional director to visit the said coastal towns lamented when he saw personally the situation of struggling Aetas and Dumagats in the river banks hunting for foods, exposed to risks and have no assurance if they can have food for the day.

Rodriguez said the indigenous peoples should be given equal importance in the government’s livelihood programs.

The regional director also gave instant cash to group of Aetas to be used in purchasing their own weighing scales so that they will not be cheated by the buying public.

“I hope the DOLE can do something to provide these groups of disadvantaged individuals in providing them equal opportunity for quality services in tandem with the LGUs, Technical Education and Skills Development Authority for skills acquisition, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Department of Education for its literacy program, because they can only be empowered when the government can give them skills, knowledge and resources,” Atty. Rodriguez said.

In his visit to the two coastal towns, he informed the residents about the DOLE’s programs and services specially the various livelihood programs which aim to bolster entrepreneurial activity in the area and to spark grassroots development in order to facilitate the integration of the residents there into the mainstream of economic life.

“This is to provide them tools in order to possibly access the department’s programs and services in partnership with the LGUs and other national government agencies,” Rodriguez added.
