DUMALINAO, Zamboanga del Sur, Nov. 20 (PIA) – It pays to submit reports on time. | |||
This town has recently been awarded a Certificate of Recognition for its prompt and regular submission of reportorial requirements for the Social Pension Program Implementation for calendar year 2013-2014. | |||
Municipal Social Welfare and Development Officer Lolita F. Jakosalem received the said award from the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD)-9 Regional Director Zenaida L. Arevalo at the Grand Astoria Hotel in Zamboanga City. | |||
“We have 226 senior citizens in our town and 36 new members under the National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction (NHTS-PR), said Ms. Jakosalem. | |||
Mayor Ace William E. Cerilles said the beneficiaries receive P500 pension every month which is released every quarter. “Regular monitoring and follow-up aside from personally handing over the checks to recipients are being done to ensure that they receive their benefits.” | |||
“Our senior citizens are still very productive members of the community,” the mayor pronounced, as he is very supportive of their endeavors led by the federation president, Ms. Rita Chavez. | |||
Mr. Alberto Embudo, focal person for senior citizens and manpower development assistant patiently delivers the pension of every senior citizen. If they are not around, it is delivered through the barangay captain. | |||
“I see to it that the payroll and other needed documents are sent back immediately to the regional office without delay. Maybe that was our edge,” explained Jakosalem. | |||
In another development, four wheelchairs given by Vice President Jejomar “Jojo” C. Binay during his recent visit in town were turned-over to identified recipients upon the recommendation of the MSWDO. They were Josephine Mann, Riza Belen, Silvina Apoya and Genaro Aguilar. | |||

PAGADIAN CITY, Nov. 18 (PIA) – In observance of the Population and Development (POPDEV) Week 2014, the Commission on Population (POPCOM)-9 will spearhead this year’s celebration on Nov. 23-29 with the theme “Bigyang Halaga ang Bawa’t Pinoy sa Pag-unlad… Ngayon at Bukas.” | |||
POPCOM 9 Regional Director Reynaldo O. Wong emphasizes the need to consciously catapult the welfare of every Filipino in inclusive development. “The commemoration calls for the explicit consideration of the well-being of every Filipino in development outcomes and in ensuring that every Filipino is provided with quality life in a sustainable manner,” Wong said. | |||
“In recognition of the importance of integrating population dynamics with development planning, policy-making and resource allocation to achieve local development, POPCOM-9 adopts POPDEV Integration as one of the key strategies to ensure the success of the Philippine Population Management Program (PPMP),” Wong explained. | |||
The main objective of this strategy is to achieve development outcomes that are facilitative and supportive of sustainable human and socio-economic development from the grassroots up, Wong further said. | |||
Over the years, he said, POPCOM 9 has already capacitated the local government units (LGUs) and partner agencies in integrating population variables with local development processes. Various modules and tools have been developed and promoted to guide program managers and planners in analyzing and tackling development administration in their localities. | |||
In line with the celebration POPCOM 9 will hold a POPDEV summit in the city on Nov. 19, 2014 to tackle the policy and program implication of having 100 million Filipinos in the country and aspires to reach a consensus on key action areas. | |||

:By Anne Camille B. Brion (BusinessMirror) | |||
KNOWN as the wine of the Subanen tribe, an indigenous group in Zamboanga, pangase wine is looking into the possibility of bringing this unique product into the market. | |||
Pangase is a fermented wine present in the tribe’s ritual ceremonies and special occasions, including weddings, birthdays and even death anniversaries. It has become one of their identities and plays a major role in their culture. | |||
As of now, pangase wines are reaching selected areas in Luzon, the Visayas and Mindanao. Coming in small, medium and large jars, pangase wine is priced at P1,000, P1,500 and P2,000, respectively. Plans to put the wines in bottles are also underway. These wines, along with other adlay champion products from the other regions, were showcased during the Grand Adlay Field Day held in Dinas, Zamboanga del Sur. | |||
“Currently, there are two types of this wine being produced. One is rice-based and the other is adlay-based,” said Joy Murayao Chua, manager of the Buug Subanen Workers Association (BSWA) which engages in the production and selling of pangase wine and coco-water vinegar. She describes the pangase adlay wine as sweeterand tastier than the pangase rice wine. | |||
The Subanens are known to cultivate the adlay for a long time now and have been consuming it as one of their staple foods. This food crop is being promoted widely by the Department of Agriculture and Bureau of Agricultural Research as an alternative crop to rice and corn in support to achieving national food security and sufficiency. | |||
“Pangase adlay wine is made of tapay powder—a concoction of different organically grown herbal plants, roots, leaves, ginger, hot chili, rice hull, and cooked adlay. Fermentation occurs in ceramic jars that ranges from three months up to one year. The longer the fermentation, the stronger the taste of the wine becomes,” Chua added. | |||
With these ingredients, the Subanens believe of the health benefits one can gain after drinking it. | |||
“Adlay is organically grown, we plant them without using chemical fertilizers. Aside from that, some of those who were able to try the wine said that upon drinking, they felt na nawawala ang lamig sa katawan nila, which make them perspire afterward,” Chua said. | |||

MANILA -- Almost one after a Zamboanga Sur town mayor, a baby, and two others were killed in an ambush at Terminal 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, the airport chief said no new closed circuit television (CCTV) surveillance system has been acquired yet due to a bidding failure. | |||
Airport and transport authorities have been widely criticized as CCTVs would have greatly helped in the police investigation. | |||
In a press conference last week, Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) general manager Jose Angel Honrada said the bidding for the P480-million CCTVs attracted some 39 firms last September, but the two winning bidders failed the post-qualification review, a key step before the contract can be awarded. | |||
MIAA declared a failure of the bidding last Oct. 27. | |||
Asked if any of the bidders filed a motion for reconsideration, Honrado said that the second bidder did but was later denied. | |||
MIAA said it plans to reopen the bidding and publish the invitation to bid this month. | |||
On 20 December 2013, Labangan town Mayor Ukol Talumpa, his wife, and two others, including one-year-old baby, were killed in an ambush outside the NAIA Terminal 3's arrival area before lunch time. The perpetrators, wearing police uniforms, fired at people in the arrival area before escaping on board a motorcycle. | |||
Airline passengers pay a terminal fee for the use of the airport terminals. | |||

It was Mabait's second consecutive stoppage defeat as his record fell to 19-3-2 with 13 knockouts. Cuadras improved to 31-0-1 with 25 knockouts. | |||
