Death toll of Cebu ship collision rises to 40

MANILA -- Twentysix people were killed after two vessels collided on Friday evening off Lawis Ledge in Cebu, the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) said Saturday. The Coast Guard said on it official Twitter account that as of Saturday 5:50 pm , 40 persons were confirmed dead, 629 were rescued and 171 remain missing. Coast Guard spokesman Commander Armand Balilo said two sea marshals were among the reported missing. Cebu Governor Hilario Davide III said Saturday hes hoping more survivors will be rescued. He added that he will head a meeting with the disaster council Saturday to address the needs of the survivors. Rear Admiral Luis Tuason Jr., PCG vice commandant for operations, said the Coast Guard has deployed teams to contain the oil spill at the site of a deadly ship collision on Friday evening. According to initial report of the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), the collision between the Manilabound M/V Saint Thomas Aquinas 1 and M/V Sul-
Court freezes bank account of Napoles, others

MANILA (Updated) -- Businesswoman Janet Napoles could no longer access and withdraw money from her 107 financial accounts after the Court of Appeals (CA) granted the governments petition on Friday. Also covered by the six-month freeze order issued by the CA Second Division were accounts of Napoles children and brother Reynald Lim, other relatives and staff, as well as those of the 28 non-government organizations (NGOs) identified with JLN Corp., Napoles trading firm. Overall, more than 400 accounts were seized by the government to avoid being withdrawn and placed beyond reach of authorities. The petition was filed by the Office of the Solicitor General on behalf of the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC). As per AMLC and the OSG, all concerned banks have been served with copy of the freeze order this Friday afternoon, said Justice Secretary Leila de Lima in a text message. The court order surprised Napoles counsel Lorna Kapunan, chiding De Lima for being despotic and denying her client due process. This shows that Secretary De Lima has exceeded her bounds. This is clearly despotic. She should be giving us the benefit of the doubt, said Kapunan, while welcoming the inclusion of questionable NGOs as this will help them prove that these are not owned by Napoles. Napoles has accounts in the Bank of the Philippine Islands-Tektite; BDO Unibank Inc.; BDO Elite Savings Bank Inc.; Citibank, NA; Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corp; HSBC Savings Bank (Phils) Inc.; Land Bank of the PhilippinesGreenhills; Metrobank Card Corp; and United Coconut Planters Bank; and Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co. (38 accounts). Completing the list were Air Materiel Wing Savings and Loan Association Inc. (AMWSLAI), Insular Life Assurance Co Ltd, Philippine AXA Life Insurance Corp., Philippine American Life & General Insurance Co. Inc., and Sun Life of Canada (Philippines). Accounts of whistleblower Benhur Luy in the BPI, Metrobank, UCPB and AMWSLAI were also frozen by the CA as he was the beneficiary of managers checks purchased by JLN Corp., which reportedly used fake NGOs to corner priority development assistance fund (PDAF) of some lawmakers. More importantly, Napoles principal cohorts like Benhur Luy (ex-personal assistant), Merlina Suas and Gertrude Uy have turned whistleblowers and have bared Napoles fraudulent and illegal schemes. Gleaned from the foregoing, there is probable cause to believe that the bank accounts belonging to the name Janet Lim Napoles and other persons, corporations/business entities may be related to unlawful activi-
ties that may constitute predicate crimes under Republic Act 9160 (AntiMoney Laundering Act), as amended, read the order penned by Associate Justice Manuel Barrios. Napoles, who is wanted by authorities along with Lim for serious illegal detention of Luy, denied having a single transaction with government. But the Commission on Audit (COA) said in a special report that 10 NGOs linked to Napoles received P2.157 billion in pork barrel from 2007 to 2009. Napoles said her wealth came from inheritance and coal mining business in Indonesia. She declined to state the name of the coal firm to protect its Indonesian investors.

Volunteers of Smart Communications, Inc., goTOTO and UP Mountaineers teach kids of Casili Elementary School basic and survival swimming.
SMART, goTOTO and UP Mountaineers volunteer time, expertise

Ready, Get Wet, Go! Braving a treacherous stretch of strong river currents just to go to school might sound too disconcerting to most people, especially if the danger is suffered by small children. But for students of Casili Elementary School, its the price they are willing to pay to enjoy the perks of formal education. The usually sleepy sitio of Casili in San Mateo, Rizal is home to schoolchildren who ride on makeshift lifesavers or salbabidas just to get to their school on the other side of a river. Navigating through the waterway exposes these children to potential risk to life and limb, some of whom are as young as 6 years old. What compounds the ordeal is that a permanent solution, like the construction of a foot bridge, or even possibly relocating the school, is nowhere in sight due to the peculiarity of the sitios location. Casili is situated in the Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape, which was recently declared by Malacanang as a protected area. Infrastructure development is restricted in protected areas. Given the circumstances, how can anyone help in the plight of the Casili schoolchildren? For one, swimming lessons are in order. A composite group of volunteers from the goTOTO Foundation, UP Mountaineers and Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart) has been conducting swimming lessons not only for the children, but for adults in the area as well. Under the project called Langoy Pinoy, the group has been making headway in transforming these salbabida riders into experienced swimmers as part of initiatives of the Philippine Disaster Recovery Foundation, a group that has been advocating for the rehabilitation of the Marikina Watershed. The project has been receiving a lot of support from members of the community, who recognized the importance of training the children how to swim in order to minimize their exposure to danger when they go to school. Ang tubig tumataas hanggang doon, says Helen Ningning Avitas, pointing to a coconut thats easily 30 feet above the rivers surface. Delikado talaga, lalo na para sa mga batang maliliit. Avitas knows this and experiences this fear firsthand being the mother of 6-year-old Kenji, a grade schooler at Casili Elementary School. Kenji, along with other kids in the community, has undergone the swimming program and now knows how to swim, which has somehow lessened his mothers worries. During the first session, around 30 children from the lower grade levels were able to attend. In the coming weeks, more advanced sessionsincluding survival training together with older students and some of the parents and teachers will be conducted. Pending a permanent solution, training the kids at swimming is the best we can do to keep them safe, says Darwin Flores, Smart department head for community partnerships. Smart conducted a series of consultations with Casilis leaders and together they agreed that survival swimming lessons, targeting the students themselves, will be an efficient and relevant intervention that they can do for now. Were equipping them with a skill that they can use not only now but for the rest of their lives as well, adds Flores. Meanwhile, Romy Garduce, a UP Mountaineer and survival expert and whos also part of the program, gave a sobering perspective on the situation of Casili. Tayo kasi, umaangal sa pollution, sa traffic at sa iba pang mga bagay, pero sila may actual struggle, notes the outdoor advocate. Theres an actual and very real risk of them dying every time they go to school. Just like Romy, goTOTO founder Dale Dennis David is aware of how important their cause is. Its estimated that 8 out 10 Filipinos dont know how to swim. And in a town like Casili, knowing how to swim can make all the difference. If one knows how to swim, one may save oneself or even others during accidents in water activities or dangerous incidents like flash floods, says David. goTOTO is an advocacy named after Muelmar Toto Magallanes, an 18-year-old who sacrificed his life saving more than 30 people from being swept away by the ravaging flood waters brought on by tropical storm Ondoy. He kept on coming back to save more people until a solid wall collapsed and killed him. He was named one of the Top Ten Heroes of Time Magazine in 2009. David and his fellow goTOTO volunteers are hoping that through this advocacy, more kids will be able to learn not just survival swimming but also the value of helping others in times of need. Smart, goTOTO, UPM and the PDRF are also looking at raising funds to buy safety flotation devices for the use of the children. Other groups have already heeded the call and have donated additional rubber tubes and even a boat to ferry up to 10 school children. This is a temporary solution but eventually we hope that all the schoolchildren of Casili can go to school without having to go through the risk of crossing the river, says Flores. (PR)
DILG 8 to hold consultation on the Sangguniang Kabataan

TACLOBAN CITY -What should we do with the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK)? This question will be on the table on August 23, 2013 (Friday) when the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) shall meet in a regional consultation with representatives from the youth, local government leagues, oversight agencies and national agencies involved in youth development, civil society, media, sanggunian representatives and key political leaders, among others. The event, which will be held at 1:00 PM at the DILG-8 Regional Training Center at Kanhuraw Hill, Tacloban City will be headed by DILG-8 Director Pedro A. Noval Jr. and shall aim to come up with a position paper of the participants on the SK issue, which shall be submitted to DILG Central Office as part of a larger nationwide series of consultations for consideration in the departments eventual recommendation to Congress. We will elicit a broadbased consensus whether to support the abolition or reform of the Sangguniang Kabataan; and whether or not the SK elections slated on October 28 should push through, said Dir. Noval. During the consultation, the group shall be presented the pros and cons of the proposed abolition or reform of the Sangguniang Kabataan. There shall then ensue a discussion on whether the SK is effective or ineffective as a mechanism for promoting youth leadership and engagement, which shall hopefully lead to agreements and recommendations from those in attendance on the topics at hand. Should the group recommend for SK reforms, these should be identified; and if the recommendation is for postponement of the SK, then an alternate schedule should be proposed, added RD Noval. Bills have been filed in Congress calling for either the reform or abolition of the SK, citing its allegedly being a breeding ground for corruption, political maneuvering, low turnout of voters, to name a few. Some, stating that it is a good training ground for future e leaders, propose reforms to include increasing the age level, providing safety nets on the use of the 10% SK funds; and even an overhaul of the youth political system, among others.

Yes, why not? Why not launch an anti-greed campaign and keep it going like some lifelong maintenance mechanism in a world that has become rickety with all sorts of moral sicknesses, with greed among the prominent ones? We just have to look around, and see greed and avarice and their many faces proliferating like anything, from the individual level to the farthest global ends. Many people are trapped in an almost invincible grip of selfishness, pursuing nothing other than their own self-interest and
throwing any consideration for the common good to the wind. This is not to mention that many have forgotten to relate their earthly business to God, to consider it as a prayer and even an act of worship that is not only pleasing to God but also most beneficial to everybody else. We have been reminded in the gospel about this aspect of our life. Take care to guard against all greed, Christ said, for though one may be rich, ones life does not consist of possession. (Lk 12,14) We have been
warned against storing up treasure for oneself but not being rich in what matters to God. Nowadays, many, in fact, do not even know the idea of common good. And if there is anything they do that would contribute one way or another to the common good, its by sheer coincidence that it happens. Any deliberate effort to do things for the common good is practically absent, if not openly avoided. The world is drowning in a sea of materialism and consumerism, with the spiritual values and the supernatural destination of human life all but forgotten. Its still working under an increasing infusion of deceptive economic tricks, but the illusion is also getting so increasingly untenable that things now are approaching breaking point. It seems that we are being set up higher and higher in our materialistic and consumeristic ways for a deeper and more painful
crash sooner or later. The signs are already there, and many of our leaders in politics, business, media and even in the church are hesitant to give the bad news. The predicament is practically left unattended. Productivity is dropping, even in an accelerated rate in some places, mainly because without the support of the spiritual and supernatural elements of our life, people have no way but to tend to become lazy, and simply wanting to be comfortable, rich and continually entertained, and with narrow and shallow understanding of things. In the corridors of power and influence, graft and corruption have practically become the SOP. Just read the papers, and thats just the tip of the iceberg. The banking and financial sector continues to blow bubbles in the hope of stimulating productive economic activity. But

Whistleblowers protection is great

Rewards and protection are motivations to ferret out hidden secrets. Corruption among government officials is the target. may have trial could not attend to the preparation of the judicial affidavit. I do not know how many among the practicing lawyers have done the supervision of their paralegal personnel in preparing the judicial affidavit. Some I know have conscientiously follows the Supreme Courts rule. How about the Efficient Use of Paper Rule? Pleadings and the like for the court are required to be encoded in an 8.5 x 13 white bond paper with indention on top 1.2 and right 1.5; while the left and bottom at 1 indention. I transferred to another sheet with the indentions as required. You know what happen? I have not yet enlarged the font from 12 to 14, but the words: .The thing I dislike in the judicial affidavit.... started the second page. Then I increase the font to 14, it moved from the words .gather the documents, especially securing certified copies. This shows that the Efficient Use of Paper Rule has not been studied carefully. With due respect to the justices of the Supreme Court, the planned paperless filing of pleadings through the use of electronic transmittal may be better than the Efficient Use of Paper Rule, however, not all lawyers can efficiently use the Internet. There are lawyers who do not even know how to type by the so-called touch system. I have seen some if not few of them using the tuldok system. Tuldok means using one or two fingers touching the keyboard. Before enrolling in law course, I suggest study first typing to a speed of 35 words per minute with 90% accuracy. Before I forget, I quote Senator Escudero: By strengthening the protection of the citizen whose testimony is necessary and indispensable for the successful prosecution of a case, we also strengthen accountability and reduce corruption in the public and private sectors. The whistleblowers will surely welcome SBN 425, but how about those corrupt? Will they appreciate the good senators Bill? From the inner sanctuary of my heart, I am sorry to discuss this to the public, but that is the only way I can expressed myself for the right of the public to know. I hope the reader will understand I am not undermining the wisdom of our justices, but merely part of my constitutional right for Freedom of Expression and Freedom of the Press. Cest la vie!

Wind of change
Reader reactions to our columns Geography As Destiny ( Aug 10 ) and Teflon Pope ( Aug 13 ) have been insightful. Sorry. But a 5,700 character cap on columns limit printing more feedback. Here are excerpts: Philippine Human Development Report 2013 probed how hazard-studded geography cripple peoples access to health clinics, schools and jobs. Is geography destiny?, the column asked. Life expectancies, in top 10 provinces, were almost two decades longer than those in conflict-ridden provinces. In the bottom five, kids dropped out of school after six yearscompared to almost 11 years for the top five. There is need to change the current city-centric emphasis, that column said.. Provinces need elbow room, in law and budget allocations, to plan and implement programs with the democratic accountability that autonomy entails. ( That ) struck a cord with me, given my meager two years of experience in one of the poorest regions, emailed Dr. Kristine Mae Magtubo, 26. She serves in Mayorga, a 5th income class in Leyte , .with the Department of Healths. Doctors to the Barrios program. IIndeed, geographic inequality impacts economic growth and interlock basins of attraction like cities and mass markets. But social and political barriers can frustrate peoples efforts to better their own lot. Daily, I see this inequity borne out of geography. And it is most evident in peoples health in these geographically isolated and depressed areas. We have a special term for hinterlands, mountains and islands:: GIDA. That translates into geographically isolated and depressed areas. They have their own dynamic, their own rules, their own problems, far from what the eye in the sky ( the central government ) can see. We should stop trying to apply interventions coming from above to these unique systems. For a field health worker like me, national government policy can sometimes be incredibly frustrating to implement. Dealing with local governments, from barangay to provinces, to catalyze local ingenuity and resolve problems plaguing these areas can likewise be draining. n I hope policy makers read the PHDR report. I hope this begins a mind shift which produces better health for people down in the ground
Will Senate Bill No. 425 (SBN 425) of Senator Chiz Escudero resolve the increasing corruption in the government? Will having whistleblowers protected and rewarded a guarantee for the corrupt to land in jail? The Bill is great encouragement and protection for whistleblowers to denounce corrupt government officials and employees. However, some whistleblowers were disappointed not only to the uncertainty of those who will protect them, but to the lackadaisical court processes. Foremost of the motivating factor is to see the court moves speedily in hearing cases. Taking too long a time to decide on cases lost the enthusiasm of whistleblowers. A whistleblower has to be a witness on the case that takes years before being resolved. It ruins the expectation that justice is only around. There should be a law that will stop judges or justices to dismiss cases by technicality. It is the practice of some lazy or bias judge to render decisions based on technicality, leaving the real aggrieved party to pain and heartache with no other recourse left, except to raise the head up towards heaven and wish for Armageddon falls. Something more might be learned by carefully perusing the 1987 Constitution in relation to the mandate to the judiciary. In Article VIII we read: Section 14. No decision shall be rendered by any court without expressing therein clearly and distinctly the facts and the law on which it is based. No petition for review or motion for reconsideration of a decision of the court shall be refused due course or denied without stating the legal basis therefor. From a laymans understanding the Constitution mandated any court to render decision expressing therein clearly and distinctly the facts and the law on which it is based. However, several decisions from lower to higher courts, merely dismissed cases because of failure to follow the Rules of Procedure. Some decisions have not resolved the controversy or issue; some
did not declare categorically what the rights and obligations of either party. Aggrieved party seeks the intervention of the court because they want justice, but dismissing the case based on technicalities is not justice at all. Parties to a case spend their hard earned money just at end of it no fair judgment is received. By dismissing a case through technicality, the Supreme Courts backlogs increased. Either of the litigants could accept the decision believing their cause have not been resolved. If the Supreme Court will only stop the lower court from rendering decisions based on technicality, cases will be speedily decided. They have to decide the case on the merit. However, if technicality is based on not filing or answering on time, it is enough justification for courts to dismiss the case. Only, the period should be at least one month to reply. The fifteenday period is not sufficient to gather the documents, especially securing certified copies that needs time to travel. Like, decisions from the Court of Appeals will need travel time from Leyte to Cebu or even filing of petitions to the Supreme Court have to be brought personally to Manila. Several lawyers have aired their disgust to the procedures like the preparation of judicial affidavit and the efficient use of paper rule. I have talked with lawyers regarding the judicial affidavit. It is additional work for them, they said. As for me it may be additional work for them, but additional income, because of additional time and effort they have to collect more than the usual fee. It may not be too much for the lawyers to prepare the judicial affidavit, because it is similar to a policemans question and answer method of taking statements. Once getting used of it will be easy to do. Only it is cumbersome for the client and the lawyer to spend extra time in preparing the judicial affidavit. The thing I dislike in the judicial affidavit is the requirement that it should be done under the supervision of a lawyer. The lawyer who

What is the strategy/ Pope Francis lifestyle from lodging in spare Casa Santa Marta quarters to spurning limousineshas rippled out, the column Teflon Pope said. How will this affect the Philippine church? Eight out of 10 Filipinos are baptized Catholics.but are poorly educated in their faith, Split-level Christianity, is widespread. Leaders trot without fail to hear Mass on Sunday. From Monday to Saturday, they wheel and deal in scams like there was no tomorrow.

You preach that to the likes of Bishops Juan De Dios Pueblo, Fernando Capalla, and Paciano Aniceto, that will be gone with the wind, like sowing mustard seeds among the rocks where the birds came and picked them away. This Pope Francis could be a prelude to the papacy of Cardinal Luis Chito. Tagle, says 444Mangyan. Not because I am a Pinoy. or a big fan. Id rather see his and Christs ways to con-
tinue. Their being of the same breed will assure that the church will stay along that line. The Church must not pretend to have easy answers, VirgoYap recalled Cardinal Tagle as saying: Instead, it must be an attentive and listening Church less preoccupied by power, prestige and position in society. But the Philippine church of today is precisely preoccupied with that, It even blocked t implementation of the Reproductive Health bill, approved by Congress and signed into law. The Church is an organization made up of people, Soulspeak ph emailed.. People are not perfect. Pope Francis Teflon reputation stems from the good he is doing in the eyes of the people. Many feel he is a breath of fresh air in a stale environment. There is a saying that all politics is local. The same goes for the church because local people run the local church. It is good they are taking their cue from Francis. However, the greater mass of people are clueless and, therefore, prone to be misled or misguided. Pope Francis can not dictate what happens. But he has pointed in the right direction. Be part of the solution, Mang Teban added. iDo not leave the work of revitalizing the hurch to the clergy. Note that the clergy represents only an iota of 0.01% of the entire church here. We need more saints who go to eat pizza and drink beer pray every day., Thus, the pope speaks about the ordinary person. Your hands can help to lighten the load. Why dont you pitch in.?

Nacar airs side of issue about the police

TACLOBAN CITY -- In response on claims of sluggish action of the police based in this city, Police Inspector Romuel Nacar, media relations officer of Police Regional office (PRO) 8, aired their side of the issue. Our line units especially those who are designated as first responder or those who are in mobile patrols were directed to immediately respond to phone calls for police assistance as soon as possible. However, there are some factors that affect the amount of time for them to respond, he said in an interview. One of the factors for the slow response of the police is the deficiency of gasoline on patrol cars. In connection with this, Nacar said that the 146 police stations over the region were provided with gasoline monthly. Since it is given monthly, there is a big possibility for a shortage on gasoline. The patrol cars are also roaming or patrolling. In Tacloban, the PNPs have patrol units and they are assigned to areas where they will patrol. This causes the insufficiency of gasoline, Nacar said. He said that it is one of their crime prevention strategies. Nacar said that based on the reports that they received from Tacloban City Police Office (TCPO), they were able to respond to calls for police assistance and the suspects were arrested. He admitted that there was a shortage in the polices part not only in Tacloban but in the entire region. He said that this is where the force multiplier performs their role. the training is conducted in combination of Webinar and oine Webinar. Noval said that on the last mode they are conducting is the newly-elected officials (NEO) program on-air. He said that Region 8 is the only region that is adapting this kind of mode. By tapping one of the radio stations here in Tacloban City, resource speakers are invited to discuss important topics related to local governance. It airs ev-

Some of these are the barangay officials particularly the barangay tanods and anti-crime non-government organizations (NGOs). They can cover the incident while the police are on their way. Citizens can also intervene during incidents. Nacar said that they have the right to arrest the suspect if they witnessed the scene. This is what we call citizens arrest. If you witnessed an incident and there are no police around, you can arrest the suspect with the help of other citizens or barangay tanods, he said. Nacar emphasized that crime prevention is not only the responsibility of the law enforcers but also it is everybodys responsibility. He also asks for the cooperation of the citizens.

DZR airport X-ray machine out of order

TACLOBAN CITY For three days already, the X-ray machine of the Daniel Z. Romualdez (DZR) Airport has not been working that leads security to do manual inspection of baggage and passengers. The X-ray machine at the check-in counter has not been functioning since August 15. However, the designated security officers still manage to manually inspect the baggage even if it takes time. Neri Cortiz, SSO supervisor, said in an interview that it will take a lot of time before the machine gets back to its normal operation. But they have doubled up the security to ensure the safety standards of the airport and of every passenger. Its hard to do the inspection manually but we have to do our work for the sake of safety and security of the passengers, Cortiz said. I plead to our passengers that they have to understand our situation and do cooperate with us so that the process would still run smooth and organized despite the malfunctioning of the machine, she added.
head. Police Chief Inspector Amodia, in their investigation report stated that security guard Henry Capuz and corporate security officer, Florencio Morana Jr. committed an offense for illegal discharge of firearms, while one of the anti mining person who hit security guard Herbert Asadon with stone out of his stone throwing will be charged with physical injury. Police Chief Amodia has scheduled a visit to the island for him to personally assess the situation there with the present conflict of the mining company and the antimining group. Mt. Sinai was issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) by the 8th Judicial Region Branch 3 in Guiuan, Eastern Samar, ordering the anti-mining group to refrain from obstructing the operation of Mt. Sinai from July 11,

There have been already several reports since then regarding the poor functioning of the x-ray machine. But until now, the problem is apparently unresolved. Moreover, the redevelopment plans are still in the process for the airports renovation which includes the purchase of a navigation aid service vehicle; provision of X-ray machines for cargo; completion of the comfort rooms; as well as improvement of vehicular parking area and access road.(JONAH
to do business, taking us away from the tendency to be swallowed up by the logic of the flesh and the world that cannot help but lead us to greed and its ilk. God and economics are not two mutually exclusive realities. Gods eternal law includes the economic laws proper to us as image and likeness of his, and children of his. At the moment, we seem to do economics by practically ignoring God, or even openly opposing his laws. The supreme law of charity is often considered as impractical and impracticable. In short, that it is inhuman, antibusiness and all that. We need to change that mindset. God and charity should be the be-all and end-all of our economic affairs. We just cannot stop at the level of profitability or practicality, making them the supreme goal of our businesses. Without discarding them, we need to go beyond them and aim at what really is the goal for us-God and charity, which is the very essence of God and also the essence meant for us precisely because we are Gods image and likeness, and Gods children. Doing business with God as the origin, way and end in no way harms our economic activities. On the contrary, it will broaden our perspective, sharpen our creativity, foster our productivity, and increase our capacity to tackle whatever challenges, burden or trials we may meet along the way. Doing business with God in mind and heart melts away the fears and doubts that often lead us to be greedy and to pursue only our self-interests at the expense of the common good.

rana Jr. corporate security officer of Mt. Sinai, reported that the mining personnel went to Brgy. Canawayon for filling of their mineral stocks, but they could not pass because of the barricade. Lao, he said, came and made negotiation with the anti-mining group to remove the barricade and vacate the place but to no avail- instead the same group formed a human barricade. Lao then ordered his personnel and the pay loader operator to slowly remove the barricade, he said. Morana alleged that while they were in confrontation with the anti mining group, he saw some of them throwing stones at them which triggered him and a security guard to fire their guns to stop the throwing. Security guard, Herbert Asadon claimed he was hit with stone in his

We have to reassure ourselves that this is the proper way 2013 and up to 20 days from the date of issue. Further, the injured rallying persons were brought to Homonhon Community Hospital for treatment. The anti-mining group have already issued affidavit for filing of appropriate cases against their offenders from Mt.
