Environmental bureau confirms more
establishments were issued with compliance certificates
By Robert E. Roperos
BUTUAN CITY, May 31 (PIA) -- The Environmental
Management Bureau (EMB) recently confirmed that more establishments in the
region were able to receive Environmental Compliance Certificates (ECC).
However, EMB Caraga regional director Engr.
Esther Olavides said they have also issued notice of violation to some
establishments who have violated the conditions specified in the ECC.
According to the Philippine Environmental Impact
Statement System, ECC is a certificate of Environmental Compliance Commitment
to which the proponent conforms with.
It is a document issued by the DENR-EMB after a
positive review of an ECC application, certifying that the proponent has
complied with all the requirements of the EIS System and has committed to
implement its approved Environmental Management Plan.
The ECC also provides guidance to other agencies
and to LGUs on EIA findings and recommendations which need to be considered in
their respective decision-making process.
Specifically, ECC contains specific measures and
conditions that the project proponent has to undertake before and during the
operation of a project, and in some cases, during the project’s abandonment
phase to mitigate identified environmental impacts.
In general, the following are salient features
of an ECC: 1) Scope of project or undertaking; 2) Conditions conformed with by
the Proponent to implement the mitigation measures for potentially negative
impacts and/or enhancement measures for potentially positive impacts as
identified in the EIA Report; and 3) Suggestions or recommendations to assist
LGUs and other agencies of the government to incorporate the EIA Results in
their decision-making process. (RER/PIA-Caraga)

package
By Robert E. Roperos
BUTUAN CITY, May 31 (PIA) -- The regional office
of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) in Caraga strongly
supports the animal bite treatment package which was launched recently by the
agency’s central office.
Parley Buyan, PhilHealth-Caraga regional
information officer, said that under the rabies prevention and control program,
they are ready to shoulder medical fees of PhilHealth members who are bitten
with animals such as dogs, cats, monkeys, centipedes, and other venomous
animals.
Aside from this, Buyan said PhilHealth is more
than willing to give anti-rabies vaccine to members in coordination with the
Department of Health (DOH).
She added this developed after PhilHealth
observed that more members died due to being bitten by venomous animals. With
this, she said it’s now high time for PhilHealth to extend assistance to their
members.
PhilHealth, through Board Resolution No. 1585,
series of 2012, shall provide the animal bite treatment package for all
qualified beneficiaries. This benefit package aims to support the National
Rabies Prevention and Control Program by defraying the cost of post-exposure
prophylaxis (PEP) treatment to animal bite patients who are PhilHealth
beneficiaries.
Pursuant to Section 38 of Republic Act 7875 and
as amended by Republic Act 9241, the corporation shall continuously endeavor to
improve the benefit package to meet the need of its members.
In view of Republic Act 9482, otherwise known as
the Anti-Rabies Act of 2007, the DOH, through Administrative Order Nos.
2007-0029 and 2009-0027, provided for the revised guidelines on the management
of animal bite patients and its amendment. In order to complement this
initiative, PhilHealth provided the package.
For the purpose of availing this package, the
existing standards for the management of animal bite patients as prescribed by
the DOH shall be used as reference for classification and provision of services.
The package is fixed at P3,000 per case and
shall cover the cost of providing Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) services. The
following are reimbursable PEP service items: 1) Rabies vaccine; 2) Rabies
Immune Globulin (RIG); 3) Human Rabies Immune Globulin (HRIG) and; 4) Purified
Equine Rabies Immune Globulin (pERIG).
Other PEP service items covered are local wound
care, Tetanus toxoid and anti-tetanus serum (ATS), antibiotics, and supplies
such as, but not limited to, syringes, cotton, alcohol and other antiseptics.
Aside from dog bites, persons bitten by other
domestic animals (cats) and Livestock (cows, pigs, horses, goats) as well as
wild animals (bats, monkeys) may be covered.
PhilHealth likewise emphasized that the package
does not cover 1) Pre-exposure Prophylaxis, 2) Inpatient cases of animal bites
and rabies, which shall be reimbursed through inpatient benefit, 3) Category I
rabies exposure and category II exposure not involving the head and neck, 4)
Bites by rodents, guinea pigs and rabbits, 5) Management of adverse reactions,
and other conditions otherwise not mentioned above.
With these developments, PhilHealth informs its
qualified members to get in touch with their nearest regional, city, or
provincial offices for more details. In Caraga region, the regional office is
located at Lynzee’s Bldg., J. Rosales Avenue, Butuan City with telephone
numbers (085) 342-6992, 341-6488, 341-6404. (RER/PIA-Caraga)
DTI to establishments: “Follow suggested retail
price”
By Robert E. Roperos
BUTUAN CITY, May 31 (PIA) -- The Department of
Trade and Industry (DTI) here reminded business establishments to follow the
suggested retail price (SRP) given by manufacturers.
According to Win Palma, Consumer Welfare
Division Chief of DTI Butuan City-Agusan del Norte, based on the Price Act of
the Philippines, specifically the profiteering provision, all prime commodities
should be sold in lower price.
The official said should they receive complaints
for violations, they will immediately act on it by conducting a thorough
investigation.
He added they will immediate release show cause
order to determine if the prices given by the said establishments are
justifiable or not.
Republic Act No. 7581, also known as the Price
Act of the Philippines, provides protection to consumers by stabilizing the
prices of basic necessities and prime commodities and by prescribing measures
against undue price increases during emergency situations and like occasions.
Under the law, the government is mandated to
ensure the availability of basic necessities and prime commodities at
reasonable prices at all times without denying legitimate business a fair
return on investment.
It is also a declared policy of the State to
provide effective and sufficient protection to consumers against hoarding,
profiteering and cartels with respect to the supply, distribution, marketing
and pricing of said goods, especially during periods of calamity, emergency, widespread
illegal price manipulation and other similar situations, it said.
Without prejudice to the provisions of existing
laws on goods not covered by this Act, the law pointed out that it shall be
unlawful for any person habitually engaged in the production, manufacture,
importation, storage, transport, distribution, sale or other methods of
disposition of goods to engage in the acts of price manipulation of the price
of any basic necessity or prime commodity like hoarding, profiteering, and
cartel.
Under the profiteering provision, there shall be
prima facie evidence of profiteering whenever a basic necessity or prime
commodity being sold such as: (a) has no price tag; (b) is misrepresented as to
its weight or measurement; (c) is adulterated or dilluted; or (d) whenever a
person raises the price of any basic necessity or prime commodity he sells or
offers for sale to the general public by more than 10 percent of its price in
the immediately preceding month.
However, the law stipulated that in the case of
agricultural crops, fresh fish, fresh marine products, and other seasonal
products covered by this Act and as determined by the implementing agency, the
prima facie provisions shall not apply. (RER/PIA-Caraga)
NFA hands over organic fertilizers
By Jennifer P. Gaitano
BUTUAN CITY, May 31 (PIA) -– To address the
increasing cost of synthetic fertilizers and its effect, the National Food
Authority (NFA) through Administrator Lito Banayo on Thursday distributed
organic bio-fertilizers to rice farmer-beneficiaries of the different
barangays, held at the Libertad National High School Covered Court here.
Farmer-beneficiaries from the barangays of
Dumalagan, Pinamanculan, Kinamlutan, Bancasi, San Vicente, Bit-os, Villa
Kanangga, Bonbon, Doongan, Ambago, Bayanihan, Nongnong, and Bitan-agan,
received the “Nitro-Fix” organic bio-fertilizers.
According to Banayo, farming is very important
in the country. Organic farming is also one of the priority programs of Pres.
Benigno S. Aquino III.
"This is why we should take good care of
our farm land. We encourage our farmers to do organic farming," Banayo
stressed.
Banayo also emphasized that with the use of
organic fertilizers, farmers would be able to save its cost compared to the
synthetic ones.
"As the prices of gasoline increase, prices
of synthetic fertilizers also increase and it affects our farming," he
said.
Aside from the distribution of bio-fertilizers
to rice farmer beneficiaries, participating farmers also raised their issues
and concerns related to farming to Administrator Banayo, with officials from
the National Irrigation Authority (NIA) Caraga, and Suma Biotechnologies
Incorporated.
On June 1 Banayo will also grace the
distribution of bio-fertilizers to rice farmer-beneficiaries from the barangays
of Baobaoan, Taguibo, Sumilihon, Ampayon, Antongalon, Baan, Banza, Mahogany,
Maug, Bobon, Cabcabon, and Tiniwisan. This will be held at Brgy. Los Angeles in
the morning, and Brgy. Sto. NiΓ±o in the afternoon, this city.
On June 6 Banayo will again be handing over
organic bio-fertilizers to farmer-beneficiaries in the barangays of Aupagan,
Mahay, Salvacion, Pigdaulan, Camayahan, Buhangin, Taligaman, Basag, and Lemon,
and the distribution will be held in Brgy. Tagabaca, here.
Meanwhile, Vincent Rosario, Libertad Brgy.
Captain thanked Banayo for his efforts in conducting the distribution of
organic bio-fertilizers to farmer beneficiaries from the different barangays of
this city.
“This will surely help our farmers to improve
their farming system and will increase their profits due to good harvest and
quality production of rice,” said Rosario.
This activity is also in support to the
Philippine Millennium Development Goal No. 7 which is Ensure Environmental Sustainability.

Academe urged to address Mindanao’s critical
research needs
DAVAO CITY, May 31 (PIA) -- A consortium of
local academicians and scholars is urged to take on the role of a think tank
that will help steer Mindanao’s journey to holistic development.
Sixteen members of the Mindanao Studies
Consortium Foundation Inc. (MSCFI) were exhorted by the Mindanao Development
Authority (MinDA) to venture out of their institutions and build their mark in
research and policy studies in the region.
“Issues in Mindanao are integrated and call for
integrated solutions that require lenses from different skills and expertise.
Being an institution of thinkers, planners, experts, and social architects,
MSCFI can take the lead,” MinDA Executive Director Janet Lopoz said in a
message delivered for MinDA chair Sec. Luwalhati Antonino.
The Foundation is a clearinghouse of ideas,
resources, programs, and projects that help mitigate peace and development
issues in Mindanao through scientific and empirical researches that help define
and support the region’s development needs.
Lopoz said development, industries, and social
structures are evolving fast, and Foundation members must determine if they
will remain within the walls of their individual institutions and research
centers, or “come out and leave a legacy in Mindanao’s history.”
“We need to strengthen alliances, expand
membership, and create networks and communities, so opportunities for
engagement can be expanded, and knowledge is brought to critical industry
players, decision-makers, and policy-makers,” she added.
Lopoz made the call during a strategic planning
session facilitated by MinDA to help the consortium strengthen its capacities
as it gears to expand its membership and evolve into the Mindanao Knowledge,
Research and Policy Center (MKRPC).
The Center will become the repository of
knowledge on Mindanao and shall take the lead in coordinating, facilitating,
and disseminating researches, bridging theory to practice in the pursuit of
peace and development initiatives.
It is also envisioned to help higher education
institutions produce more scientists and give attention to social and political
sciences that can help address complex social and political issues in Mindanao.
The planning activity was intended to come up
with an enhanced research framework and harmonized Mindanao Research Agenda in
relation to the region’s blueprint for development called Mindanao 2020, A
Peace and Development Framework Plan for Mindanao.
Dr. Ciel Habito of Brain Trust Inc., in his
message to the consortium, revealed that in the crafting of the Mindanao 2020,
his team saw gaps in defining the knowledge base to support its thematic areas.
He said this boils down to the need for a research agenda that will later on cluster
into research studies.
“What we need is practical research that can be
useful and contribute to actual reforms, such as identifying lack of
infrastructure to unleash a lot of economic activities,” Habito said.
He expressed hope for BTI and MSCFI to work
together for possible expansion, networking, and strengthening of both
institutions in order to respond better to the needs of Mindanao.
Prof. Ricardo de Ungria, MSCFI Chairperson,
closed the activity with a rallying call to its members to renew their
commitment to the consortium and tackle the challenges ahead. (NCLM/MinDA/PIA-Caraga)

Tagalog news: POPCOM, DOH tinutulak ang right
family planning method
Ni Danilo S. Makiling
BUTUAN CITY, Mayo 31 (PIA) -- Itinutulak ng
tanggapan ng Commission on Population (POPCOM), sa pakikipagtulungan ng
Department of Health (DOH) sa Caraga ang tamang paggamit ng family planning
method.
Ayon kay Alex Makinano, POPCOM-Caraga Technical
Service Division chief, napagkasunduan nila ng DOH na hatiin ang pagsasagawa sa
mga estratehiya upang ang mga mag-asawa ay gumamit ng tamang family planning
method.
Sinabi rin ni Makinano na ang demand generation
drive ay nagtuturo sa mga kababaihan kung paano gagawin ang natural o kahit ang
artipisyal na family planning method.
Idinagdag niya na ang ibang estratehiya na
naipapakilala ay ang pagbibigay ng tamang serbisyo sa family planning, sa
pamamagitan ng family planning supplies and logistics ng DOH na inaasahan na
maisasakatuparan bago pa man matapos ang taong kasalukuyan.
Sinabi rin ng opisyal na base sa survey, higit
23,000 na kababaihan dito sa rehiyon na may gulang na 15-49 years old ay nagpaplanong
hindi na magbuntis o hindi na mabuntis ulit sa tamang panahon matapos manganak,
subalit ang mga ito ay hindi gumagamit ng family planning method.
“Kaya, walang kasiguruhan kung makakamit nila
ang kanilang plano,” aniya.
Dahil dito, sinabi ni Makinano na ang POPCOM ay
kaagapay ng DOH pati ng ibang ahensya ng gobyerno na tumutulong na kilalanin
ang mga kababaihang bibigyan nila ng kaukulang pagsasanay kung saan ang
estratehiya sa family planning ay maipakikilala at inaasahan na maisagawa ang
tamang family planning method.
Kung ang kaalamang ito ay masasalin, ang mga
mag-asawa ay madali nang makapag- family planning na may kasiguruhan na
magkakaroon ng maayos na kalusugan ang pamilya.
Ang hakbang ng POPCOM at DOH regional offices ay
para ipakilala ang healthy lifestyle kung saan ang gobyerno ay pino-promote din
ang family planning lalo na dito sa rehiyon ng Caraga kung saan ay tumataas
taun-taon ang bilang ng populasyon.
Ayon sa report ng NSO-Caraga, nagpapakita ng
pagtaas ng 1.49 porsyento kada taon simula sa taon ng 2000-2010 ang populasyon
sa rehiyon. Base sa 2010 na census ng populasyon at kabahayan, ang kabuuang
populasyon sa Caraga simula noong Mayo 1, 2010 ay 2,429,224, kung saan ay mas
mataas ng 333,857 kumpara sa taong 2000 na ang populasyon ay 2,095,367. Sa
taong 1990 naman ang total na populasyon ay 1,764,297.
Sa lahat ng mga probinsya sa rehiyon, ang Agusan
del Sur ang may pinakamataas na populasyon na umabot sa 656,418. Ito's sinundan
ng Surigao del Sur na may 561,219 at ang Surigao del Norte naman ang pangatlo

kuwestyonaryo at masigurong tama at kumpleto ang mga makukuhang datos.
Napakahalaga na tama at sigurado ang mga datos

pagpili, at paghahanda ng pondo ng mga programa at proyekto upang maihatid ng
pamahalaan ang tunay na mga pangangailangan ng mga tao, ayon pa kay Santiago.
Ang panlalawigang pamahalaan ay siyang
tagapagsanay at tanggapang magmomonitor bago isagawa at habang ginagawa ang survey,
