Ayon sa ulat nagkarun ng mainitang pagtatalo ang dalawa malapit sa bahay ng biktima sa brgy Gomez, nang biglang magbunot ng dalang baril si Tiboy at sunod sunod na pinaputukan ang biktima na namatay noon din.

Apat na basyo mula sa kalibre 45 baril ang narekober ng mga nagresponding mga pulis sa lugar na pinangyarihan ng pamamaril. Mabilis namang tumakas ang suspek patungo sa di masabing direksiyon at ngayon ay pinaghahanap pa. Johnny Glorioso

Kalayaan, KalagayanE D I T O R I A L

Ngayong Hunyo 12, 2014, mamarakahan ang ika-116 na taon ng “Araw ng Kalayaan”. Bibigyang buhay na naman ang pagwagayway ng unang presidente ng Republika ng Pilipinas na si Emilio Aguinaldo ang watawat na sumisimbulo sa pagkakaroon ng bansa ng indipendensya. Sa kulay na asul, pula, puti at nagniningning na sinag ng dilaw na mga bituin at araw, muling sasariwain ng sambayanan ang paglaya nito sa kamay ng mga mapanupil at mananakop.

Sa kabilang banda ano ang kalagayan ng sambayanang Pilipino, gayong isandaan at labing-anim na itong lumaya sa kamay ng mga dayuhan? Ano ang pagkakaiba ng kalagayan ng mamamayan noon at ngayon at sa tagal nang nagsasarili ng bansa?

Nanantiling naghihirap ang sambayanang Pilipino, kahit hitik ang ating mga likas na yaman, sagana ang ating pagkukunan ng kabuhayan at mahusay ang mamamayan, di mapantayang talento at kakayanan ng mga Pilipino, nanatiling atrasado ang ating bansa. Ano nga ba ang dahilan ng ating pagkalugmok?

Kung babalikan natin ang kasaysayan, bago pa man iwagayway ni Emilio Aguinaldo ang bandila, may iba nang niluluto ang mga Kastila at Americano. Bago pa man pumutok ang gyera at tuluyang makamit ang ‘kalayaan’, nagkaroon na nang bayaran. Sa halagang 400,000 pesos isinuko ni Aguinaldo ang ating bansa sa mga Kastila at sa halaga namang 20 milyong dolyar sa ilalim ng Treaty of Paris, ipinagbenta ng mga Kastila ang Pilipinas sa mga Americano.

Kung gayon paanong lumaya ang Pilipinas? Isang napakagandang palabas, na pawang teleserye sa telebisyon na may ‘happy ending’?

Dito umusbong ang pagiging mala-kolonyal ng Pilipinas, hindi naman lingid sa ating kaalaman ang estilo ng mga Imperyalistang bansa kagaya ng Amerika na manlinlang sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay ng huwad na kalayaan

Anong ang ibig-sabihin ng Kalayaang ipinagdiriwang kung ang sambayanan naman ay hindi pa rin lumalaya sa dusta nitong kalagayan?

Kung gayon, muli nating isipin, malaya nga ba tayo, kung nananatili ang pagsasamantala, panlilinlang at panlalamang sa samabayanang Pilipino. Nariyan ang anomalya sa Pork Barrel, matinding korapsyon na umaalingasaw sa pamahalaan, nariyan ang interbensyon ng US sa Pilipinas sa pamamagitan ng EDCA o Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement, panibagong banta sa ating soberanya at seguridad at panibagong banta sa pang-aabuso sa kababaihan.

Kailangan natin imulat ang sarili natin na hindi lamang salita ang ‘kalayaan’, at hindi lamang ang pagiging literal nito ang ating pagtutuonan ng pansin. Ano nga ba ang pagkakaiba ng kolonya at nagugutom sa nakalayang nagugutom? Bottom line, nagugutom at naghihirap ang sambayanang Pilipino at ang mga inaasahan nating mangunguna sa pagpapalaya ay siya pang umaabuso sa pwesto.

Walang ibang magpapalaya sa ating dustang sitwasyon kundi ang ating sama-sama pagkilos at pagkakaisa laban sa masasamang elemento ng lipunan at mapagsamantala, hangga’t hindi tayo namumulat, mananatili tayong bulag at sunud-sunuran sa dikta ng iilang nagtatamasa ng karangyaan at naliligayahan sa palabas na ‘kalayaan.’

ANO BA YAN!JOHNNY GLORIOSO

Cocolisap and our coconutsCocolisap, a very dangerous

pest is causing so much alarm among coconut farmers and is threatening the entire coconut industry, spreading all over the country and killing millions of coconut trees. The situation is causing a major panic among coconut industry stakeholders with the cocolisap leaving a trail of destruction in Batangas, Cavite, Laguna, Quezon and other parts of Luzon, and now spreading up to Basilan.

Coconuts are major agricultural exports with the Philippines accounting for more than fifty percent of the total output of coconut cooking oil all over the world. Aside from this,it has other produces like virgin oil, and buko juice which has gained global fame for its many health benefits which the President, in one of his State of the Nation Address even mentioned that coco water exports have risen from almost two million liters to more than sixteen million liters in 2012.

The hews about cocolisap infestation of thousand of coconut trees in a barangay in the province of Batangas was reported to the Philippine Coconut Authority on 2010 but little was done about it. By 2011, the infestation had spread to other areas in Batangas and reached Laguna, with reports coming from the province of Quezon. The Department of Agriculture made several measures to contain the scale insect invasion and even claimed that the mitigating measures like

leaf pruning, spraying activities including the application of salt were working and that the trees fully recovered.

It seems the government spoke too soon, because the pest continued their destruction, resulting in millions of dead coconut trees while many more are dying, their leaves turning yellow or brown. Noticeably, they thought they were dealing with scale insects normally found in our country, but they were wrong. It turned out that they were dealing with a more destructive insects believed to have come from Indonesia through one of the International ports in Batangas. The insects attacks the leaves of the coconut trees, causing the trees to die and whats more scary is that it spreads so fast because the pest are airborne and therefore travels very fast.

The newly appointed food security czar and Agriculture Modernization Secretary Kiko Pangilinan has sounded the alarm bells over the coconut infestation warning it could spread all over the country by yearend if not controlled. He outlined a 750 million plan to control the infestation which the government of PNoy promptly acceded. But most of the coconut industry players do not agree to the proposal to inject chemical pesticides on the coconut trees.

While its true that injection will be faster and maybe cheaper, turning the coconut trees into virtual poison for the insects,

but it will have more costly consequences in the long run because some scientist said that it could make coconut products unsafe for consumption. Virgin coconut oil producers are particularly concerned that the naturallness of coconut products and by products will be affected. The use of chemicals in Philippine coconut products being rejected by the consumers in the International Market who would prefer cleaner and chemical free products.

So why are they trying to push through with this plan of using synthetic chemicals if it is a health hazard? According to some, it is being pushed by a former member of the academe who is now representing a foreign company dealing the synthetic products. Coconut industry players know that consumer perception could adversely affect the market which is why they are opting for natural methds that can effectively kill these insects. One of them is to introduce the right predator insects that can target the pest like what was done in Indonesia where these scale insects came from.

Just few days ago, Secretary Pagilinan came to Brgy Potol in Tayabas City to formally launched the campaign to fight and subdue the pest by spraying, pruning, cutting infested leaves and injecting its trunk with chemicals. They plan to do this to about 33,000 coconut trees daily with the help of coconut farmers who have lost their source of living because of cocolisap.

GEMI A BREAKGEMI FORMARAN

We have no fishpond to sell!During the last Father’s

Day, I posted a photo on my Facebook account. It was me making a selfie shot and behind me was a group of men harvesting hundreds of bangus in a fishpond.

More than 150 of my FB friends including my wife and kids liked it.

Actually, it was not the photo that caught their attention but its caption.

The caption says,”I feel something different whenever I’m in a fishpond. I can’t explain it but its really great. And every time I see fishpond, I would recall the time when our family had a big financial problem. To address the problem, we came up with an idea of selling a fishpond although we hate doing it. It was our eldest brother who raised the idea, and we eventually agreed. But at the end of the day, the selling did not push through because we realized that we have no fishpond to sell. Happy Father’s Day!”

And so my FB friends realized that it was purely a joke.

A male friend commented, “Ikaw talaga pare ko... na

touched ako sa una pero sa bandang huli ay natawa ako. Yan ang signature mo pare! Happy Father’s Day!”

Being a joker is an open book to my close friends especially to my fellow journalists who know me well. Once I speak, a portion of my praises would definitely be a joke. That’s why they would always wait for the punchline, my signature!

But in the family, we have a better joker in the person of King, my elder brother who also writes.

King is a little taller, bigger, and much darker than me but as what they consistently say, the younger is always the better.

We also have another joker- bother. He is Jay, who early retired from the police service for reasons that his being a cop hinders his being a practical shooter and a range officer. He is of course much older than King.

My two brothers almost have same colors, height and built.

But its a usual thing that people, even our fellows in the practical shooting community would always think that I am

the eldest among the three of us. And its no longer a joke.

Its funny but I couldn’t blame them because of my looks. I wear eyeglasses and speak seriously. Aside from my wife, many say that I have a very strong personality like my father, the late Gil “Banat” Formaran who became famous for his being fearless and hard- hitting radio and TV commentator.

Aside from being a Bible reader, my father was a very good joker and the best joker in the family!

And we have learned a lot from his traits, from being a fighter, principled, responsible, determined, good provider, generous, loyal and joker!

He would crack jokes even during serious moments and unholy hours making everyone of us laughing.

One night as we were about to sleep, my mother told him, “Papa, ang ganda n’ong nakita kong washing machine sa TV kanina, ibili mo nga ako n’on”. He replied, “Bukas na lang at sarado na ang department store!”

Being a joker is one manifestation that I’m not

that feisty as some people, including those who hate me, used to and would always describe every time they hear my name.

What makes me feisty is my being outspoken. I don’t sanitize the words I use when I describe people, more so when I criticize them over their wrongdoings!

One time, I read an article written by a known columnist. He was attacking a corrupt and wealthy politician for being selfish. He said,”You love your money so much! You feel shy to share even a little portion of it to your constituents”. The writer never described him as greedy.

In my case, I say things directly and hit my target head-on, using words unpleasant to their ears, but appropriate to what they did or to what they are.

I would not just say that someone is slow learner or weak- minded if I know that he is really stupid.

You would never hear me saying that a chief of police is just keeping his temper if I know that he is obviously a coward.

I would never say that

a city mayor is just a soft- hearted leader with a very weak leadership if he is a certified gay.

And if he has “Ka Sister” governor whose reasons for having a number of handsome and macho policemen- bodyguards is his being security conscious, you would not expect me to agree!

I’m not joking!!!Being an outspoken

journalist, joking or not, I would say exactly what you are!

Forgive me but that is the trait that I inherited from my father!

As he would always say during his heydays, “Tell the truth straight and stand with it! Never get intimidated as long as you are telling the truth and doing the right thing”!

And as his program ends, its extro would say, “Huwag ninyong kagagalitan, kailan man, ang taong nagsasabi ng katotohanan!”

And that is the simple reason, gentlemen and ladies, lesbians and gays, why I am what I am!

Ang hindi maniwala, mamamatay agad!

I’m joking!!! Hehehe!

TRUTH ALWAYS PREVAILS

Aquino, binatikos ng mga propesor ng UP sa pagkunsinti sa mga promotor ng pork barrel

Brgy. Chairman patay matapos barilin sa Tiaong, Quezon

Di epektibong natutugunan ng administrasyong Aquino ang isyu ng pork barrel scam. Ang masama, pinagtatakpan lamang nito ang isyu, ayon sa mga propesor ng Unibersidad ng Pilipinas (UP).

Sa inilabas na timeline ng UP Faculty Against Pork Barrel o UP FacPork, sa isinagawang press conference sa Vinzons Hall sa UP Diliman, lumalabas na malaki pa rin ang hindi nareresolba sa isyu na unang sumulpot noong nakaraang taon.

Kaya naman hindi nakapagtataka na nagpapatuloy ang mga protesta kontra sa pananatili ng sistema ng pork barrel o discretionary funds sa Ehekutibo ng gobyerno.

PagpapanagotKinasuhan kamakailan ang tatlong

senador na sangkot umano sa pork barrel scam ng Sandiganbayan. Pero para sa mga propesor, kailangang managot ang lahat ng sangkot sa pork barrel scam.

Ayon kay Gerry Lanuza, propesor ng sosyolohiya at tagapangulo ng Congress of Teachers and Educators for Nationalism and Democracy, hindi umano sinsero ang administrasyong Aquino sa pagbasura sa sistema ng pork barrel at pagpapapogi

lamang ang nagaganap na pagkakaso sa mga senador.

“Mismong si Aquino, ayaw bitiwan ang sarili niyang pork barrel (Disbursement Acceleration Program). Pawang pagtatakip sa mga nasa administrasyon ang ginagawa sa mga kaalyado nito at ang pang-aaresto sa tatlong senador ay para pabanguhin lamang ang kasalukuyang gobyerno,” ani Lanuza, sa panayam ng Pinoy Weekly.

Ayon kay Lanuza, matapos sabihin ni Aquino na hindi siya aalis sa Tacloban City hangga’t hindi naaayos ang lugar, agad naman itong nagbalik ng Maynila nang magdesisyon ang Korte Suprema na ilegal ang DAP. Gayundin mabilis na pinagtatakpan nito ang mga kaalyado kagaya nila Sec. (Butch) Abad ng Department of Budget and Management, at ni Sec. (Proseso) Alcala ng Department of Agriculture sa naturang isyu.

Paliwanag pa ni Lanuza, kapag isinuko ni Aquino ang DAP nito, para na rin niyang tinanggalan ang sarili ng kapangyarihan para makapanuhol o makontrol ang iba pang mga politiko o nasa gobyerno.

Ganito din ang paliwanag ni Bebot Sanchez, propesor ng UP Cebu, dahil sa katangian ng mga pulitiko sa bansa na

magkaroon ng personality benefits sa kanilang tinutulungan para makapanatili sa posisyon.

Kaya naman pagdating umano sa mga serbisyo para sa tao, mas gusto nilang lumalapit sa kanila ang mga tao kaysa pondohan ang mga ahensiyang dapat magbigay ng serbisyo-publiko tulad sa edukasyon at kalusugan.

“Hindi magkakaroon ng asset redistribution hangga’t may political dynasties. They (politicians) themselves extract the resources from the state,” ayon kay Sanchez.

Sinabi naman ni Joyce Cuaresma, propesor sa College of Public Administration and Governance sa UP, na higit na kailangan tignan at pag-aralan ang special audit report ng Commission on Audit (COA) dahil sa opisyal ang dokumentong ito.

“Mahaba ang listahan at hindi lamang tatlo. Hindi lamang dapat tayo magpokus sa tatlo kundi sa buong audit report ng COA dahil ito ang opisyal na dokumento,” sabi ni Cuaresma.

Dagdag niya nasa P80 Bilyon ang kailangang habulin sa COA Report at hindi lamang P10-B. Kailangan din umanong habulin at busisiin mabuti ang presidential

pork at Malampaya funds.Ilaan sa serbisyoHindi lamamg krisis sa moralidad ang

nangyayaring eskandalo sa pork barrel kundi konkreto umano ang epekto nito sa mahihirap na mga mamamayan, ayon sa UP FacPork.

Sa pagsiwalat sa pork barrel scam, lalong umigting ang panawagan ng mga guro na ilaan ang discretionary funds para sa serbisyo-publiko tulad ng kalusugan at edukasyon.

“Malaking usapin ang mababang sahod ng mga guro at kulang sa benepisyo. Sino ang magsasabi na walang pera? May malaking pondo na napupunta sa pork barrel pero sa batayang serbisyo patuloy na naghihirap,” ayon kay Ramon Guillermo, propesor sa College of Arts and Letters ng UP Diliman at tagapangulo ng All UP Workers’ Union.

Nakatakdang sumali ang mga guro sa nalalapit na protesta laban sa pork barrel sa Hunyo 12 sa Liwasang Bonifacio at Mendiola.

“Ang pagsasawalang kibo at hindi pakikisangkot ay pag-aambag sa paglubog ng bayan sa korupsiyon at katiwalian,” pagtatapos ni Lanuza. Pher Passion ng Pinoyweekly.org

Magsasaka sa San Francisco hinuli ng mga sundalo; mga residente ngBrgy. Nasalaan, nangangamba naring hulihin

SAN FRANCISCO, QUEZON - Hinuli ng mga elemento ng 74th Infantry Batallion (IB) si Elmer Cuaso, isang magsasaka at residente ng Brgy. Nasalaan, San Francisco, Quezon noong ika-17 ng Hunyo, 2014. Kaugnay ito ng naganap na engkuwentro sa pagitan ng mga rebelde at sundalo noong ika-25 ng Mayo, 2014 sa nasabing lugar. Ayon sa Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), nakakuha sila ng isang papel sa pinangyarihan ng engkuwentro kung saan nakasulat doon ang pangalan ni Cuaso. Sukat noon ay ipinatawag nila ito sa kampo subalit hindi raw ito pumunta kung kaya kanila na itong dinampot kung saan kasalukuyan na itong nakadetine sa isang piitan sa bayan ng San Francisco.

Ayon kay Christopher Regencia, tagapagsalita ng

Karapatan-Quezon, “Lalo lang ipinakikita ng mga sundalo na sila ang pangunahing lumalabag sa karapatang pantao ng mga mamamayan dahil sa kakulangan nila ng ebidensya sa panghuhuli at sa pagdampot ng kung sinu-sinong sibilyan na malapit sa lugar na pinangyarihan ng sagupaan.

Samantala, maliban kay Cuaso, dadamputin din sana ng mga elemento ng 74th IB si Ruel Bedrejo na isa ring magsasaka at residente rin ng naturang lugar ngunit nakatakas ito kung kaya pinaghahanap pa rin ito ng AFP. Dahil dito, nangangamba na rin ang halos lahat ng residente ng Brgy. Nasalaan dahil anumang oras ay maaring dakpin din sila at gawan ng gawa-gawang kaso ng mga sundalo. Karapatan-Quezon News Bureau

TIAONG, QUEZON - Dead on the spot kaagad ang isang barangay chairman matapos na barilin ng hindi pa matukoy na suspek sa isang sabungan sa Tiaong, Quezon nitong nakaraang linggo.

Kinilala ang biktimang si Restituto Pere, 66-anyos, kapitan ng Brgy. Sta. Maria, San Pablo City, Laguna.

Ayon sa ulat ng pulisya, naganap ang insidente pasado alas-tres ng hapon sa F. Castillo Coliseum sa Brgy. Lalig ng nasabing bayan.

Naglalakad umano patungo sa parking area ng sabungan ang biktima kasama ang anak nito ng biglang lapitan

ng isang lalaki.Nang sa paglapit ng hindi pa

nakikilalang suspek ay walang sabi-sabing pinaputukan ito sa likurang bahagi ng ulo na naging sanhi ng agaran nitong pagkamatay.

Ayon sa anak ng chairman, nakasuot na kulay berdeng damit, denim shorts, putting bull cap at may suot na face mask ang naging pagkakakilanlan sa gunman na mabilis tumakas matapos na maisagawa ang krimen.

Patuloy naman ang isinasagawang imbestigasyon ng mga awtoridad sa insidente at sa motibo sa pagpaslang sa biktima maging ang agarang pagkadarakip sa suspek. Ronald Lim
