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.

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.

Masbate bans ‘super-light’ fishing in municipal waters

by Danny O. Calleja


MASBATE CITY, Nov. 24 (PNA) – The use of “super light” in fishing within the municipal waters here is now completely forbidden.

Superlight as defined by the Anti-Super Light Ordinance of 2011 recently enacted by the city legislative council and now being enforced following its approval by City Mayor Socrates Tuason is a type of high-powered light using halogen or metal halide bulb which may be located above the sea surface or submerged in the water to attract fishes.

Like trawl and fine-meshed net fishing, the use of super light is blamed for overfishing that Republic Act (RA) 8550 or the Philippine Fisheries Code of 1998 has included as among the banned forms of fishing in municipal waters around the country--the waters within 15 kilometers from the coastlines.

The city’s municipal waters cover portions of the Masbate Pass and San Bernardino Straits.

Under the city ordinance, a violator shall be punished with imprisonment from six months to two years or a fine of P5,000 or both at the discretion of the courts, the same penalties that RA 8550 provide, according to Tuason.

The ordinance also outlaws the use of mercury lights and lights with more than 4,000 watts in combined electrical power of light bulbs in fish catching in the city’s waters but allows the use of incandescent lamp, pressurized gas lamp, compact bulb as well as “hasag,” a traditional gear of fisher folks, the mayor said.

Violators of the prohibition on the use of mercury lights and lights of more than 4,000 watts shall be slapped with a fine of P1,000 and imprisonment for up to six months.

The ordinance also provides monetary reward for law enforcers involved in the apprehension of violators while those responsible in the prosecution towards the conviction such as personnel of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), the Philippine National Police (PNP), Bantay-Dagat Task Forces and barangay enforcers will get 25 percent of the fine.

“This reward system is applied as provided under the ordinance to encourage local authorities to enforce the law seriously so that the city government is able to totally curtail super light fishing that is severely detrimental to our local fisheries resources,” City Vice Mayor Allan Cos explained.

The ordinance that is aimed at strengthening the city government’s fight against marine wealth exploitation is also protective of the rights of marginal fishermen that should be given the preferential use of the municipal waters for their livelihood, he said.

“We are ensuring the rational and sustainable development, management and conservation of our fishery and aquatic resources consistent with the primordial objective of maintaining a sound ecological balance, protecting and enhancing the quality of the environment,” the vice mayor who is presiding officer of the Sangguniang Panglunsod (SP) which enacted the ordinance said.

While doing that, he added the city government also provides support to the municipal fisherfolk through appropriate technology and research, adequate financial, production, construction of post-harvest facilities, marketing assistance and other services as they should receive a just share for their labor in the utilization of marine and fishery resources, he added.
