Pagbabago inaasam ng Pinoy kay Noynoy
SA June 30 ay manunumpa
na bilang ika-15 presidente ng
Pilipinas si President-elect Sena-
tor Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino,
III kung saan ay umaasa ang
mga Pinoy na magkakaroon ng
pagbabago ang ating kalagayan.
Isa kasi sa ipinangako ni
Noynoy noong panahon ng
kampanya ay ang paglaban sa
katiwalian, pagpapaganda sa
kalidad ng edukasyon,
pagbibigay ng maraming
hanapbuhay at iba pa.
Alam naman nating lahat
na ang katiwalian ang siyang
dahilan kung bakit hanggang
ngayon ay naiiwan ng mga
karatig bansa ang Pilipinas
dahil sa halip na mapunta sa
magandang proyekto ang pera
ng kaban ay napupunta lamang
ito sa bulsa ng iilang tao.
Kapag naiangat ni Aquino
ang kalidad ng edukasyon sa
bansa ay tiyak din na
magbabago ang pagtingin ng
mga dayuhan sa

THE Department of Justice
has dismissed the murder
charges against former
Bangued town Mayor
Dominic Valera who was
accused of shooting his
rival’s supporter last April
for lack of probable cause.
In a resolution dated June
15, 2010, the DOJ said
complainant Philippine
National Police’s testimonial
evidence “is flawed with
inconsistencies on essential
details compared to the
physical evidence on hand,
the indictment sought cannot
be sustained.”
The resolution was signed
by Senior State Prosecutors
Roberto A. Lao, Aileen Marie
S. Gutierrez and State
Prosecutor Grace V. Cruz.
The DOJ also ordered the
PNP to release Valera and co-
accused PO2 Joseph Barreras

Bangued town Mayor
Dominic Valera’s legal
counsel Raymond Fortun
had said that the shooting
incident ensued from an
assassination attempt on his
client.
Fortun quoted Valera as
saying that the first volley of
gunshots came from behind
the vehicles in Valera's
convoy, while he was on a
campaign sortie in Barangay
Cosili West.
According to Fortun, the
vehicle of Valera's sup-
posed attacker squeezed
into the middle of Valera's
convoy and started firing
shots at his client’s vehicle.
Rattled by the gunshots,
Valera rushed out of his
vehicle and scrambled
toward a nearby house,

ni Noynoy ay tiyak na
magsisipagtahimik na ang mga
sumasalungat sa kanyang
adhikain.
Alam natin na kaya ni
Aquino na mabigyan ng
solusyon ang mga problemang
kinahaharap natin sa
kasalukuyan dahil nasubukan
na rin ang pagkatao nito simula
ng patayin ang ama nitong si
Ninoy noong 1983.
Makakamtam natin ang mga
inaasam na ito ni Noynoy kung
tutulungan natin siyang
makagawa ng paraan kung
paano mabibigyan ng solusyon
ang lahat ng problema nating
kinahaharap.
Sa halip na magsalita tayo
laban sa susunod na
administrasyon ay tulungan na
lamang natin ito sa pag-abot
sa inaasam nating kaunlaran.

found him.
Earlier, Valera had tested
negative for gunpowder
burns after being linked to
the murder of a supporter of
his rival, mayoral candidate
Ryan Luna.
Paraffin tests done by the
Philippine National Police
Crime Laboratory in Camp
Crame showed that Valera
and his police escort, PO2
Joseph Barreras, are negative
for gunpowder nitrate
residue.
Valera's daughter, Rep. Joy
Bernos, said she was elated
by the news. "Lumabas din
ang katotohan na hindi ang
tatay ko ang bumaril gaya ng
pinalalabas nila," she said.
Bernos said her first
agenda when Congress
opens is to deliver privilege
speech that will seek to
dismantle private armed
groups in Abra.
Police earlier filed murder
charges against Valera and
Barreras for the death of
Luna’s driver, Mario Acena,
during an armed encounter
in Barangay Cosili West
during the elections.

Who Are Behind the Violence
and Disappearances?
Continuation
Meanwhile Ladera, Sanchez, Tadena, and Dacut were all
killed in public places and in broad daylight: Sanchez was
shot at the Baguio City public market at around 5:10 p.m., a
time when public markets are teeming with customers. Ladera,
Tadena and Dacut were killed on highways.
Human rights and labor lawyer Charles Juloya of Aringay,
La Union survived an assassination attempt March 21. Inter-
viewed by Bulatlat in a hospital in Metro Manila, he said he
had parked his car near an eatery in front of his office when he
saw his would-be assailant a few meters away, holding a gun.
As the gunman fired, he ran in a circle to evade the bullets,
before ducking behind a jeepney parked nearby and finally jump-
ing into a canal. When he groped for his pocket, the assailant
fled.
The gunman had fired eight bullets from a .45 caliber pistol,
said a report from the Aringay PNP; of these, only two man-
aged to hit Juloya.
The time was 12:30 p.m. Chief Insp. Eduardo Abadoy, Aringay
police commander, told Bulatlat that the three policemen who
were on duty at the outpost near the scene of the incident had
tried to pursue the assailant but failed to catch him. One of the
witnesses to the incident told Bulatlat that the barangay (vil-
lage) office was closed that day; sources from the office explained
to Bulatlat that they had attended a fiesta (feast) the night be-
fore and no one was able to report for work that day except for
two health workers – who were out by 12 noon.
Juloya would later learn, from onlookers, that the assailant
had been on the spot for a long time before the shooting hap-
pened. “The man clearly knew what time I would arrive and
where I would park my car,” Juloya said.
“The impunity is noticeable in these cases,” said Saladero.
“If you are a private hired killer, if you don’t have strong con-
nections, you wouldn’t do such things with such impunity.”
Left “intramurals”
Curiously, Saladero also observed, in almost all of the noted
cases, the angle of “intra-organizational rift” within the Left
had been consistently floated by the investigating police units.
Indeed, in the copies of police reports obtained by Bulatlat
on the cases of Sanchez and Juloya, the angle of alleged Left
intramurals appears first on the list of possible motives.
In the particular case of Sanchez, cited as the first possible
motive is: “Intramurals within the Organization relative to the
alleged misunderstanding of Bayan Muna Cordillera and Bayan
Muna Region 1.”
But in interviews with Bulatlat, personalities connected to
both Bayan Muna-Ilocos – which covers Region 1 – and Bayan
Muna-Cordillera said there was no rift between the two chap-
ters.
Juloya, likewise, is cited in the Aringay police report as dis-
counting the angle of “Left intramurals” in connection with the
assassination attempt on him. He repeated this in the interview
with Bulatlat.
In the case of Danilo Macapagal, 51, who was abducted in
front of his house at 8 p.m. March 3, officers of the investigating
police unit said that a dispute within the Nueva Ecija chapter
of the Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan or New Patriotic
Alliance) may have had something to do with his abduction,
considering that he relinquished his post as chairman of the
said organization in 2003 after serving for more than 20 years.
According to PSupt. Henry Teaño, deputy director of the
Philippine National Police (PNP) in Nueva Ecija, who also heads
Task Force Macapagal which is responsible for investigating
the Macapagal abduction, their interviews with Bayan-Nueva
Ecija leaders and members showed that Macapagal relinquished
his post as Bayan-Nueva Ecija chair in 2003, citing poor health
(he is said to have developed asthma then). In an interview
with Bulatlat, Teaño said that asthma is not developed in later
years. Bulatlat.com

Charges versus Sulpicio VP push through AFP change of command

JUSTICE Secretary Alberto Agra has de-
nied the plea of Sulpicio Lines Inc. (SLI) vice
president Edgar Go seeking for the reversal
of the resolution affirming the filing of crimi-
nal charges against the officials of the ship-
ping company in connection with the M/V
Princess of the Stars tragedy two years ago.
In a resolution, Agra said Go’s arguments
in his motion for reconsideration have been
already passed upon and have tendered
no new issues to warrant the reversal of
the resolution issued on March 22, 2010.
Agra denied Go’s petition for review seek-
ing the withdrawal of charges of reckless
imprudence resulting in multiple homi-
cide, serious physical injuries and damage
to property filed against him before a Ma-
nila court.
“We have carefully reviewed anew the
evidence on record in the light of the argu-
ments advanced in the motion for recon-
sideration and found no cogent reason to
reconsider our assailed resolution,” Agra
said. Ampie Galpo

Marlon Tapales
is another
rising star
By Gerry Penalosa
PhilBoxing.com
THE Philippine boxing
community has another poten-
tial world champion to watch
out for and it’s Marlon Tapales
of Wakee Salud Boxing Stable
of Wakee Salud and Bong Yap.
Tapales has won his Philip-
pines Junior lightweight title’s
first defense bout during the
“Rumble sa Jungle” held at
Zamboanga City which was
sponsored by Congressman
Erbie Fabian as his gift to his
constituents for giving him
fresh mandate as legislator.
Tapales successfully defended
his title against GAB current
No. 7 contender Charlie Cabilla
via unanimous decision and
now posts a win-loss-draw
record of 13-1-0.
I witnessed the title defense
together with my wife and I
have seen the transformation of
our boxers especially in form
and style. I saw the potential
in Tapales and I saw another
world boxing champion in the
making. With just a bit of pol-
ishing, this kid will make it big
in boxing. Hats off to premier
Philippine boxing promoter Rex
“Wakee” Salud and Bong Yap
for taking Tapales into their
stable. I am sure, Tapales is feel-
ing the same excitement I once
felt during my early years in
boxing as part of Wakee’s stable.
NOT A JUMP BALL

game at the Big Dome. Air21 wins by a single point, 98-97, against the Gin Kings.
Air21 nips Barangay Ginebra 98-97
THE Air21 Express had so
many close calls but determina-
tion gave them the edge to cap-
ture a single-point win against
Barangay Ginebra in the battle for
the last cut Sunday night at the
Araneta Coliseum.
LeRoy Hickerson made two free
throws with 11.7 seconds left then
Billy Mamaril blocked a shot by
Enrico Villanueva as Air21 nipped
Barangay Ginebra, 98-97, to boost
its wildcard bid in the PBA Fiesta
Conference.
“It’s tough getting the win
which we needed so much. We
wanted it badly to get some dis-
tance with Barako Energy Coffee
in our fight for the last slot in the
TUNYING PEÑAREDONDO
wildcard round,” said Air21
coach Yeng Guiao.
“We’re keeping our attitude
positive. We’re still very hopeful
that if we make the wildcard, we’ll
have a chance even against teams
in the upper bracket,” Guiao added.
Avenging a similar one-point
loss to the Kings in their previ-
ous tiff, the Express moved up to
4-13 — a game behind the Sta.
Lucia Realtors (5-12) and half-
game in front of the Barako En-
ergy Coffee Masters (3-13).
Air21 automatically lands in
the wildcard round should Barako
loses its last two games versus

NCAA, todo na ‘to!
MALAKING bahagi
ang Studio 23 sa
tagumpay ng NCAA!
Ginanap kahapon
ang press conference
ng ABS CBN para sa
NCAA.
Dumalo ang mga
players, muses,
coaches, at ang NCAA Policy Board at Mancom kasama
na rin ang media para salubungin ang paglulunsad
ng 86th Season ng NCAA.
Excited na excited ang bagong NCAA President na
si Fr. Morillo sa pagkukuwento na marami silang
inihanda para sa opening ceremonies ngayong Sabado.
***
Sa siyam na head coaches sa NCAA ngayon, anim
ang dating PBA players.
Frankie Lim, Ato Agustin, Vergel Meneses, Richard
del Rosario, Leo Isaac, at Chito Victolero.
Kaya pati line-up ng mga coaches, star-studded na
rin.
***
Ang nahirang na commissioner ay si Aric del Rosario
at ang kanyang assistant ay ang dating Toyota player
na si Ompong Segura.
***
Ang Studio 23 ang siyang magdadala sa atin ng
TV coverage.
Isa sa dahilan kung bakit nananatiling isa sa pinaka-
glamorosong college leagues ang NCAA ay dahil nasa
tabi nila ang Studio 23.
Ang mga hardworking men and women ng Studio
23 ang nagsisiguro sa mga basketball fans na mako-
cover nila ng maayos ang games para ‘dun sa mga
hindi makakapanood ng live sa Araneta o sa The Arena.
Magagaling ang mga anchors nila, led by Sev
Sarmenta and Bill Velasco.
Wish namin, sana magagaling ang mga courtside
reporter na napili nila for this season’s coverage.
Yung mga courtside reporter na talagang magaling
magtanong, at hindi yung puro “how do you feel after
winning this game?” at tsaka “what’s your plan for
your next game?”
Kaya naman sa mga taga Studio 23, saludo ang
mga college basketball fans sa inyo!
