ILIGAN CITY, Lanao del Norte, October 23 -- The city council of Iligan passed four resolutions related to the billing of the National Power Corporation for the electric consumption of the Iligan Diesel Power Plant starting December 2010 to June 2011.
KOLAMBUGAN, Lanao del Norte, Oct. 24 (PIA) –- Some 64 promising out-of-school youths (OSY) concluded the Kaagapay ng Bayan sa Pagkamit ng Kapayapaan (KABATAAN) seminar held here, last Oct. 18-21.
In the letter of NPC-Sales and Services to the city government, this amounted to more than P2 million.
A paradigm of Youth Leadership Summit (YLS) in the grass root level, KABATAAN aimed at developing OSY’s to be leaders in Barangays Baybay, Muntai, Kulasian, Palao and Pantar, all of Kolambugan town, this province.
The first resolution is to request the NPC department concerned for a re-computation of the billing, not to include the grid function for the reason that this should billed to the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines and not the city.
Spearheaded by the 35th Infantry (MAKAMANDAG) Battalion (35IB), Philippine Army, through its Alpha (ALAMID) Company, the seminar was a concerted effort of the various government agencies, non-government organizations, civil society organization, people’s organization, provincial government and the local government unit (LGU) of Kolambugan, Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), and the Philippine National Police (PNP).
The second resolution is to ask the Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corporation (PSALM) for a statement of income of IDPP when it was operated by NPC from the time of the auction until the time that it was turned over to the city.
1LT Jason B. Torino, Commanding Officer of ALAMID, 35th IB, said the seminar was anchored with the AFP’s Internal Peace and Security Plan ‘BAYANIHAN,’ with involvement of different stakeholders and the support of the Punong Barangays (Village Chieftains) and the Samahang Kabataan (SK) chairpersons of each barangay.
Third resolution urged the Ad Hoc Committee on IDPP Disposal to determine the reason why the billing in the power consumption of the plant reached this amount.
“With this program we can develop a pool of youth leaders to launch inter-agency activities aimed at curbing insurgency, promoting peace advocacy and enlisting support in the government’s anti- terrorist campaign," Torino said.
Fourth resolution is to direct the City General Services Office, Electrical Division of the City Engineer’s Office and the Committee on Budget of the city council to check the actual facilities for the continued operation and maintenance of the IDPP. (CIO/PIA-10)
The modules used were on Conflict Resolution, Leadership (Youth Empowerment), Human Rights, Drug Prevention, Culture of Peace, Livelihood Enhancement, Facing Adolescence, Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) Infiltration to the Youth, Politico- Economic and Ideological Spectrum.
Part of the 4-day seminar workshop was how these youth were equipped with necessary knowledge and skills that a good leader should have. (35IB/PIA-10)
