Jesus. Let us all gather at Santo Nio Parish, in Tacloban for the welcome rites, reception and veneration, Fr. Alvero said. From the humble life and works of St. Therese, this will inspire people that everybody can become a saint. And that it is possible even nowadays. The archdiocese has about 1.4 Catholics. Philip Jude Acidre, a regional chairman of One Youth and political group based in the region, expressed to page 7 TACLOBAN CITY - Eastern Visayas suffered a 16.29% decline in last years abaca production due to continuing infestation of abaca diseases, less demand for low grade fibers and extended rainfall. Fiber Industry Development Authority Regional Director Jeffrey Espea said that the region only produced 14.59 million kilograms
(kgs) of abaca fiber last year, 2.84 million kgs lower than the 17.43 million kgs output in 2011. Most of the abaca farmers were discouraged to harvest and strip more fibers because of some traders refusal to buy low grade abaca fibers especially on the latter part of the year, Espea told Leyte to page 3

this development. The trend appears to be increasing as there is a renewed interest of our coconut oil in the international market, Benjamin Yu, coconut protection and regulatory officer of the PCA-8, said. As of last month, the region exported coconut oil of 16,700 metric tons which has a value of $10.86 million. Compare to the same period of last year, the region just exported 2,300 metric tons valued at $3.21 million. The entire export production of coconut oil from the region was only 81,222 metric tons valued at $69.30 million. Of the regions annual coconut production, 80 percent of them are exported to other countries like the United States, Europe, Malaysia and Japan, among others. The remaining 20 percent are used by various oil mills and refineries operating in the region which have a combined coconut oil need of more than 451,000
metric tons a year. Yu said that they are keeping their fingers crossed that the increased demand of coconut oil from the region and other coconut-producing regions of the country would continue. We just hope that this will continue as the biggest beneficiary on this are our farmers, he said. The region has about 368,524 coconut farmers. Eastern Visayas is considered to be the countrys
second coconut-producing region with an annual production of about 2 billion nuts. With an increased international demand of coconut oil, the price of copra have also increased. As of this week, the price of copra in the region now ranged from P14 a kilogram to P18 per kilogram. The current copra price is higher compare to the previous price of P16 per kilogram.

BAYBAY CITY The ground breaking ceremony for the P500 million-worth diversion road on Feb.18 was met with mixed reactions. For the citys political leaders, it is a sigh of relief for motorists traversing the city streets filled with pedicabs a signature of Baybay worse traffic condition. But for the affected landowners and tillers, it marks another sacrifice as they have yet to receive the promised compensation for their properties. They also lobby for fair and just compensation for their fields with growing rice when the contractor backfilled the paddies without entering into an agreement with the farmers and other stakeholders. According to Cresencia Baron, 70 years old who was teary-

Office of the President Executive Secretary Paquito N. Ochoa Jr. President Aquino creates Task Force on Bangsamoro Development
President Benigno S. Aquino III has issued a directive for the creation of the Task Force on Bangsamoro Development to push forward the rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts in the region following the signing of the framework agreement for a peace settlement between the government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), Executive Secretary Paquito N. Ochoa Jr. said on Tuesday. Ochoa said Administrative Order No. 37, which President Aquino signed on February 13, will ensure that development projects and programs are implemented in Bangsamoro, a new autonomous region that will be established in Mindanao, for MILF combatants and their families as well as communities that will be affected by the framework agreement signed in October last year. The task force, according to Ochoa, is mandated to develop and implement

cation and livelihood needs of MILF priority beneficiaries and poverty-stricken communities throughout Mindanao. The peaceful resolution of the conflict in Mindanao goes beyond the signing of the framework agreement. This administration wants to ensure that peace and progress go hand in hand, Ochoa said. The Aquino administration last week took the initial step to help MILF forces and their families and affected persons and communities with the launch of the social development plan called Sajahatra Bangsamoro Program in Maguindanao. Although the initial beneficiaries of the program will be MILF members and their families, other residents in the region will also receive the benefits of the peace agreement and the development and livelihood initiatives that go with it, the Executive Secretary said. The task force is com-
posed of the Cabinet secretary as chairperson and the heads of the Departments of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), Labor and Employment (DOLE), Health (DOH), Education (DepEd), Agriculture (DA), the Interior and Local Government (DILG), and Budget and Management, and the presidential adviser on the peace process (OPAPP) as members. Other members are the secretaries of the Presidential Management Staff (PMS), the Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office (PCDSPO), the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO), and the Office of the Presidential
Samar Daily Express. The official said that despite higher trading price and growing demand for high grade fiber, many farmers opted to produce low grade because of simple stripping process. Continuous heavy rains triggered decrease in output since it disrupted farmers activities such as harvesting, stripping, drying, and even transport from farm to market. Espea also believed that disease infestation is one of the factors that dragged down last years yield with their very limited resources to combat the spread of abaca mosaic and bunchy-top diseases.
The President also instructed the task force to coordinate with the Transition Commission, created under Executive Order No. 120 last year, in the development and implementation of the program.

In its latest estimate, FIDA said that some 19,000 hectares of abaca farms in the region have been infested with diseases with some 8,000 hectares have remained untreated. We use to be number one in the country in terms of production but in 2010, Bicol area dislodged our regional output due to harvest decline in abaca producing provinces, he added. Five of the regions six provinces posted output decrease last year. Only Samar province exhibited an increase from 791,875 kgs a year ago to 886,814 kgs in 2012. Other provinces recorded a negative growth last year ranging from 16% to 24% compared
to 2011: Leyte (5.08 million kgs from 6.14 million kgs), Southern Leyte (1.37 million kgs from 1.79 million kgs), Northern Samar (6.26 million kgs from 7.46 million kgs), Eastern Samar (846,986 kgs from 791,875 kgs), and Biliran (138,180 kgs from 181,490 kgs). Northern Samar has emerged as the top abaca producing province in the region with its output accounting 43% of the total harvest.

Simply irrepressible
Philippines for the midterm elections this May. However, in spite of this, it seems that the warning fell on deaf ears as there remain some candidates who apparently are not affected by the warning, feigning to possess the permission to use it. There are also campaign jingles, using the same viral tune of Psy but with different lyrics in Tagalog or the dialect, that are repeatedly heard over broadcast stations and in campaign sorties. What do these persistent acts of some candidates impart? Does it mean that they are not compelled to follow an order that is not conveyed to them personally? Or is it simply a clear manifestation of the inability of candidates to grasp every intent of the warning. In law, there is the well-respected principle and which in fact is embedded in the New Civil Code: Ignorance of the law excuses no one from compliance therewith. This warning of Psy and the duly authorized license holder to

Those caught doing so without prior permission from the publisher MCA Universal Music Group and composer and corresponding payment for the license to use it, which could be worth a million pesos, will have to face the legal consequence. The warning further extends to alteration of the lyrics of the viral music video. Speaking through the president of MCA UMG Ricky Ilacad, the owner of the song warned, If there is anything out there using Gangnam, they should stop.

A Filipino Pope
Cardinal Tagle can count on the clamor of the Latin Americans who reside in the most populous Catholic region outside Europe, and of the young African church yearning for recognition and salvation. Asia also constitutes half of the worlds 6 Billion population. Cardinal Tagle is only 55 years old and respected for his deep theological mind, humility and his ability to communicate through the media. Pope Benedict XVI pleaded advanced age and deteriorating health as reasons for his voluntary resignation. He must have considered the greater good of the Church. When the Pope realized that his service as pontiff could no longer be fruitful, his resignation became inevitable. Lets pray that we get a Filipino Pope.

The resignation of Pope Benedict XVI opened the possibility of a Filipino Pope. Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle is a member of the 120 College of Cardinals who will elect a new pope. The speculation revolves around the possibility of a pope from developing countries rather than one from Europe. In many western countries, the crisis of Catholicism is closely tied to the scandal of clerical sexual
abuse. In the Philippines, the crisis is around family planning and reproductive health and divorce. In the years to come, regardless of who becomes the next Pope, we will see more changes in Catholic thinking sparred by developments in science and medicine, in governance and state policy. The challenges will emerge as more and more people have to respond to personal issues, in planning our families, in dealing with and of life issues.

Due to the many loopholes in our election laws, it is tough enforcing the many prohibitions as there are many ways out of getting answerable for committing violations. The difficulty in implementing election laws is the major reason why the conduct of elections is less than honest, orderly and peaceful. Candidates are very creative and resourceful in finding ways to go around every prohibition written in our election law. Gimmicks that candidates apply in the campaign trail are often on the edge of the prohibition. There is too much stretching to the limit in every move that candidates perform to win the support of the voters. In some instances, the prohibition is
transgressed purposely to test the efficacy of the law in the effectiveness of law enforcement aspect. This is why we have a chaotic topsy-turvy campaign where every candidate is pulling every trick or gimmick that will ensure victory at the polls. Campaign strategies are often done in violation of laws for as long as the perpetrators are not caught. These violators are very much certain that law enforcers are undermanned to make apprehensions. Worse, even those perpetrators who are caught and apprehended are eventually released for failure to hold them liable under the law. Without complainants and witnesses that will indict a violator, there can be no prosecution that can
stand in court. But the gravest unabated transgression is the famous and popular vote buying. Candidates know very well that money plays a vital and influential role in winning elections. So much is allocated for the voters as the practice had long become widespread. The preparedness of candidates to spend for every voter is met with a corresponding expectation on the part of the voters that indeed there will be money in exchange for his vote. It is public knowledge that candidates are not just giving money out of sincere generosity. They give for a consideration that voters will list their names on the official ballot. This is no doubt a deal whereby money is given for the vote. If candidates are just generous by their nature, they must be extravagantly generous to people by giving money anytime as needed even when there is no election. The flow of money is at its peak during elections. This fact is noticed by the public as well as business, banks and government. Suddenly, there is a tempo-

Two of these are lying unused in Maripipi, island town; 8 likewise are unused in the garage of a school in Naval designated as garage of the school bus system. -oOoMillions of Pesos were invested in the purchase of these buses intended initially for poor students, no doubt is a very laudable project of Atty. Glenn Chong. These unused but in running condition then could be attributed to ugly politics a telling outcome of a very questionable election results in 2010. rary and artificial scarcity of small bills and such is a clear indicator that politicians are badly hoarding such small bills in preparation for vote buying. Unfortunately, laws are strict in the observance of constitutional rights that protect suspected violators from being held liable for their acts without due process. Without tackling the most obvious recipe to victory, people are well aware that all campaign gimmicks are nothing compared to the rampant and pervasive vote buying that candidates employ to lure voters into shading their number on the ballots. But the voter must learn that the shading can easily be done marking the apt number according to ones conscience, though in most cases, money talk speaks the loudest voice for voters to toe according to the dictates of the highest bidders. Comments to alellema@yahoo.com
the song in the Philippines MCA UMG is moored on law. Blatant disregard of the warning by the lawful owner means fearless defiance of the law. In such premise, is it like saying that these politicians who have the guts to defy the warning have the propensity to confront lawful orders of duly instituted authorities? Maybe not, but that is what the mind is coached to perceive. To be fair , though, with these candidates, considering the exemption allowed
by the one who cautioned, the candidates who continually use the world renowned Oppa Gangnam Style song in their election campaign could been armed with the permission from the license-holder and have paid the required fee for the use of the song. It is better thought this way than surmise that the obstinate will get the chance to gallop their way to victory in the elections in May with the help of this internationally popular Gangnam song in spite of violating a lawful owners rights.

SIGNS
Not only prophets, but even concerned scientists in our day often have the same difficulty as Jesus. Economists tell us that the world will run out of resources if we continue to exploit the earth as we are currently doing. Biologists speak about the disastrous effects of our waste of energy, of the destruction of the rain forests, of the pollution of the atmosphere, of the dumping of radioactive waste, of using materials like plastics that are not biodegradable. Physicians warn us that were eating too much fatty stuff, that many drink too much, that we should drive our cars less and use our feet and bodies more. Sociologists warn that families are falling apart, that children are not well educated, and that there are too many homeless people in our streets. Too few listen. Those who dont listen often say that they want clearer signs, more proof, stronger evidence, while all around us forests die, fish rot, air and water are polluted, and human beings suffer. We dont need more signs. We need changes. Of course, it would be impossible to change everything at the same time. But we all can begin and enter the process. Today you might change one of your consumer habits. Take a mug or cup with you to work instead of using paper or styrofoam cups. (With Hearts on Fire by Joseph G. Donders, Published by Paulines.
