The weather bureau Pagasa has placed signal number in the provinces of Samar, Eastern Samar and Northern Samar which could trigger possible landslide or flooding due to the heavy rains it spawns. He said that the local government units of these three provinces must now prepare their contingency plans in case of flooding or landslide incident like possible evacuation of people living in prone to either landslide or flooding incident. Linde said that they are particularly monitoring the situation in Eastern Samar, especially in the towns of Giporlos and Maslog, as the level of rain water could reach as high as a two-storey building.

Linde said that no incident of flooding or landslide has been reported to their office due to Gorio. Eastern Visayas has been identified as one of the flooding and landslide-prone regions in the country. (JOEY A. GA-

Lagutan revealed that as early as 7a.m. to 1 p.m., main thoroughfares and the following areas will be closed to all types of vehicles going to downtown Tacloban for the morning activities of the Pintados-Kasadyaan Festival of Festivals. These areas are the corners of Imelda and Salazar, Utap and Holy Infant USA, Sagkahan-Old Road going to Real Independencia, Real-Pericohon, R e a l - In d e p e n d e n c i a , Abucay-Cong. Mate Ave., Paterno-Imelda, Juan Luna-Sta.Cruz and corner Torres-Veteranos Extension going to Leyte Lumberyard. The corners USA, ImeldaSalazar and Imelda-Paterno will be opened at 1 p.m. However, at exactly 3 p.m. onwards, the abovementioned roads will be reclosed for the afternoon activity, the Sangyaw Parade of Lights. All streets are reserved to make way to all emergency vehicles and closed roads will be opened after the parade, Lagutan added. According to him, Tomeco will be dispersing full-force of traffic enforcers which will be designated in different traffic control posts located in the downtown area and other identified traffic areas around the city which will be reserved for the said parades. Lagutan also disclosed that as early as 7a.m., they will be conducting alternative traffic rerouting plan they advised all vehicles to follow. All vehicles coming from the south shall enter Old Road towards Esperas Avenue, then turn left at Independencia. From then, they will take Real Street towards their point of origin. Real Street is strictly one way and no counter flow will be allowed from any of the streets crossing Esperas Avenue to Real Street. Also, vehicles coming from the north shall enter from Paseo-Avenida
Veteranos Street and shall turn left towards Torres and exit at Tarcela-Sabang route back to their point of origin. Alternative route for all PUVs coming from the north shall enter from corner Reclamation Area - exit of Old Bus Terminal, Quezon Blvd., Trece Martirez towards Magsaysay Blvd. and Del Pilar. From there, they shall turn left from the separator island located on the said area taking the same route back to their point of origin. Although there is a 5060% need of traffic enforcers in the city, we, in our full effort, expect the event to be free from any eventualities from the time that it commence until it ends, Lagutan said.

A Day of Parades, a Day of Grace
aclobanons, balikbayans and Leyteos will have a eld day today. It is the rst time ever that they will be treated to a day where they will witness parades from morning till night. What makes it special is the feeling of piety, ease and gaiety at the thought that there is a sort of understanding between the groups behind the Pintados, Kasadyaan and Sangyaw Festivals. In previous esta celebrations, tension could not be prevented as the city gets divided and people get embroiled in intrigues and strain. The pressure could not be avoided as both camps asserted their rights and presumptions regarding the staging of parade alone. The Church got caught in the middle trying to patch things up. No one could probably deny that the seeming reconciliation is a result of the prayers and novena intentions in both camps and the Church asking for enlightenment and grace of humility to set in for both groups. With the grant of the Grace of Reconcilia-
tion, it is hoped that the parties concerned will work further to commit deeper understanding, humility and sincerity to co-exist and work hand in hand in fostering peace and love among the Sto. Nio devotees and others who are non-devotees but nonetheless believe in the Christ, Jesus. The divine beings in heaven must be happy and satised at the turn of events. It cannot be denied that indeed, Tacloban and Leyte are truly blessed. Many a time, the place has been affected by the wrath of nature but it is always spared from massive destruction from calamities and disasters. If only for this reason, both Taclobanons and Leyteos must exercise diplomacy and good judgment in dealing with each other, their neighbors and fellowmen. Pride, arrogance and the false sense of selfimportance must give way to affability, subtlety and sincerity. There is no substitute for peaceful co-existence and diplomacy. People

Reconciliation and sincerity

British Orator Winston Churchill, also an English prime minister during the World War II has a beautiful quote on sincerity that runs this way, The only guide to man is his conscience; the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions. It is very imprudent to walk through life without this shield, because we are so often mocked by the failure of our hopes and the upsetting of our calculations; but with this shield, however the fates may play, we march always in the ranks of honor. I am reminded by this quote thing of the past. I do not think that the commentator is capable of twisting facts as this writer has not even blamed the LMWD management for the problem. It was more of a reaction to the claim of the outgoing An Waray representative that . . . it was due to his efforts and multi-million contributions that Tacloban would have water just after the election. But up to now, it has remained a claim by a mayoralty candidate who wanted to get extra votes through the water issue. Anyone who tries to
when I was told earlier that a certain block time commentator harangued me one night in his radio program. I told the one who informed me to let him be, saying, let him earn his keep. He needs it for his sustenance It is quite funny that the commentator talked
on reconciliation but could not be sincere himself. True reconciliation always entails sincerity on both parties. I want to believe that Engr. Ganggang Villasin is sincere in his efforts to bring water to the city of Tacloban when he mentioned that the water problem will become a

these so-called social excesses rather than the religious fervor. It is more of the tradition or get-together rather than devotion. Although they have no testimonies of great miracles that the Sr. Sto. Nio has done in their lives or their family, the church teems with communicants during the Fiesta (nine-day) novena masses and the Fiesta Day masses. Msgr. Opiniano, on this aspect, replied, People come to participate in the esta celebration for many and varied reasons. Some comes only to give praise to Sr. Sto. Nio, being our God and heavenly protector. Others ask favor from him for special petitions believing that He is generous enough to respond to their needs. For as long as these things are done in the spirit of goodwill, friendship, building good relationships, I dont think we should not prevent them from doing it, pertaining to some peoples penchant for these kind of gatherings. Yet again, Msgr. Opiniano stressed, Fiesta is a celebration of life and faith. We acknowledge what a great gift life is and that we have to live it in the spirit and context of our faith. Another tradition that is creating a little puzzlement among historians is the historicity of the Balyu-an Rites as one worthy of being given a liturgical importance. There is this unpopular school of thought that the Balyu-an (exchange of images of the Sto. Nio of SNP of Tacloban and that of Brgy. Buscada of Basey, Samar held on June 20th) has no historical basis but just a gment of the imagination of a renowned poet sometime in 1939. Albeit valid argument and an issue that is debatable, for Msgr. Opiniano the tradition lives on, mooring his stand on the common adage if there is smoke, there is re. He said, Its historicity might be questionable, but the fact that the story emerged, brings to our mind that something akin to it must have happened. It is not impossible that it (the Balyu-an or exchange of the two images of the heavenly patron) really happened, he said. During the recent presbyterium of the clergy in the Archdiocese of Palo, Rev. Fr. Gilbert Urbina, the Archdiocesan Liturgist and parish priest of Sts. Peter and Paul Parish in Ormoc City, broached this assertion with a bold challenge, What we celebrate in

church is truth not myth, pointing to his discovery that the Balyu-an rites has no historicity and thus should not be given signicance in church liturgy. He quipped that it is unthinkable for the people of Buscada to simply allow their better looking image of their heavenly protector and patron to be replaced by an image that is of inferior quality. This image said to come from Buscada is what is now known as the El Capitan reposed at the retablo of the Sto. Nio Church in Tacloban. Fr. Urbina claried that that name El Capitan was how the image of the Sr. Sto. Nio de Tacloban in resemblance to the name of

He said that although basically religious, the esta celebration is an opportunity for people to meet friends and do some other social activities and gatherings this should not go beyond bounds and no become an occasion of gossips and all other conversations which are not reective of the true spirit of this spiritual celebration. This is the same breadth of comment conveyed by Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle when he presided the pontical mass in celebration of a feast in Manila. Man as a social being has this propensity to put accent on the trimmings rather than what matters the spirit during esta celebration. This brings into an observers mind that some who visitors who come for this occasion come only for
It will always be the same Sr. Sto. Nio yesterday, today and forever, thus Rev. Msgr. Alex Opiniano said in gist in an interview with LSDE at the Sto. Nio Parish conference room on Thursday. Underscoring the main drift of the esta celebration, he said this religious event is in fact a celebration of life and faith. Msgr. Opiniano, the parish priest or pastor of Sto. Nio Parish of Taclo-
ban City expressed his view that although there are individuals who fete this occasion with pomp, these are just trimmings which are just secondary being simply a human expression of ones fondness. He stressed that celebrating the esta, which is the faithfuls communal way of giving praise, honor and thanks to our heavenly patron and protector Sto. Nio, has nothing to do with drinking, eating and coming together.
the image of the Holy Child safely kept by the Order of St. Augustine Recoletos. Narrating the history of the Taclobanons devotion to the Sto. Nio in a phone interview with this writer, he stated that per recorded history, the devotion started way back in 1770 when the Augustinians established a visita (barrio with a chapel) in Tacloban and named the Tacloban mission Dulce Nombre de Jesus. This was after the Jesuits were expelled from Leyte during the Spanish era in 1768. He said that the image of the Sto. Nio that was venerated during the Augustinian time came from Cebu, which at that time

PETER, THE ROCK

When Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi he asked his disciples, Who do people say that the Son of Man is? They replied, Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets. He said to them, But who do say that I am? Simon Peter said in reply, You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God. Jesus said to him in reply, Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For esh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father. And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Upping the Ante

frANZ RAYMOND P. ASPA As I hoped, the Philippines and Taiwan will seem to bury the hatchet insofar as their past row involving the death of one of the latters citizens which, by the investigations conducted by both factions, have been sealed with recommendations for the ling of appropriate charges against the coast guards who red the fatal shots. The two countries have decided to cancel all efforts toward possible armed confrontations, agreeing instead to share maritime law enforcement. Of course, the possibility of the two countries calling it quits and appeasing each other would have been a dim possibility were it not for the ndings of our National Bureau of Investigation that Hung died because he, not their vessel, who was the one shot at by our coast guards. Far from pacifying itself, Taiwan would have raised hell by a contrary opinion. I have previously opined that it was bold for our investigators to have damned their own if only to show to the world our commitment to the truth and to the rule of law. But it was wise too, economically speaking. You see, Taiwan has been considered a premier destination for Overseas Filipino Workers lacking as it does manpower in view of the same policy it shares with China of limiting its population. A ruckus with Taiwan will denitely not sit well on us especially that it is our OFWs who have been steadying our otherwise wobbly economy. A misunderstanding with Taiwan and we lose a considerable lot. A perpetual falling out with Taiwan and our otherwise rickety economy will crumble like a heap of dried leaves. So also, a long-term row with Taiwan will be like a dagger thrust at the heart of Philippine tourism as there will sure be a drastic decline in the number of Taiwanese
and Chinese tourists visiting our country. In short, a furore with Taiwan will bring harm to the Philippines more than it will do it any good because, to quote a columnist, we need Taiwan more than it needs us. Such apprehensions are, to be sure, not far-fetched Taiwan having shown the possible havoc it could wreck had we chosen not to adhere to their pre-conceived notion of the truth. While it chose to rectify its previous haste, Taiwan and its President Ma Ying-jeou, at least during the initial stages of the friction, called for a freeze in the hiring of Filipinos and for the stoppage of visits by Taiwanese tourists to our shores. As expected, numerous booked ights to the Philippines were cancelled. Surely, our fates would have made a sharp turn short of overturning had we decided to save the asses of our coast guards by a nding that they merely acted in defense of themselves when they chose to riddle the Taiwanese boat with bullets. We would not have antagonized only Taiwan but also the superpower China (note that with our adherence to the one-China policy, the two are one and the same) and our grim
PETER AND PAUL, APOSTLES

Peter and Paul were very self-assured men. Peter was strongminded and straightforward. But he only realized who he was when a servant girl at a reside revealed to him his human weakness through a simple question. He denied the Lord and broke down in tears. It really hurts when we discover that we are not what we think we are. Paul knew exactly what he was and what he believed. He was a man of strong faith, until he was struck blind on his way to Damascus and found Christ. The shattering crisis brought Peter and Paul into a new life of Christ. They now placed their condence not in themselves but in the Lord. Through crushing experiences, the Lord restored these men to full health and strength. Our strong front is usually a protection against some inner fear, but the Lord reminds us that there is no need to fear. Both Peter and Paul were executed in Rome about the year 67 AD, that is, about 35 years after Jesus death and resurrection. According to an ancient tradition, Peter was crucied while Paul was beheaded. Peter was buried in a common burial ground but soon his tomb became a place where Christians ocked to pray, and right on that tomb now stands St. Peters Basilica. There is another beautiful church in Rome called the church of St. Paul. It is built on the spot on which, according to tradition, Paul was beheaded. May the Lord change us, transform us, so that, like Peter and Paul we may also bear witness to Christ in our lives. (His Word is Life by Vima Dasan, S.J., published by Paulines.

Strive always to be humble as was St. Peter, as was St. Paul. Yet, notwithstanding, they still managed to carry out prestigious works and they established the Churchs foundations.

apprehensions would have tripled. But true to our commitment to the truth, we chose reason over sentiments, we chose rationality over emotions, we chose to save the asses of many over those of a few. And so, by our show of nerve, we may not have touched the heart of China for it to cease its bullying us but we sure did earned their respect. Hell we may not have even earned that for it to nally come to its senses but we denitely averted what an otherwise would have been consequences of cataclysmic proportions. We may not have put our foot down and made China run like a cowering little girl but we sure did make a resounding statement that

we are a bunch who does not abuse its power because it can. That puny as we may seem, we have our own ideals to uphold, and uphold it no matter the ramications I am not saying though that we should swallow what China is trying to shove down our throats. The seal we have stamped on the fates of our own should not mean that we should give in to their desires, of giving up territory that is rightfully ours. It should not mean that we should give up our ght for something we believe belongs to us. At least it should not mean that we should give up without a ght, like a scrawny little kid helplessly giving his candy to a bigger kid. At least we should put up a ght. As for the Philippines, way to dodge that bullet.

riosity, they went off-shore to take a close lood and save the box with the little boy. To their surprise, they didnt nd a child on top of the box. When they opened it, they saw the image of Sto. Nio and he was the same little boy they saw on top of the box, the account further conveyed. Jubilant over the news, the Hermanidad lost not ime in recruiting volunteers to retrieve the image from where it was found. On June 6, that year, a party of nine men left for Semirara on a chartered motor launch Consuelo. At that time, Tacloban was in the grip of a severe cholera epidemic. A procession of the image of San Roque (protector and patron of the sick) was scheduled for the afternoon of June 30, 1889. In the afternoon of that day June 30, the boat Consuelo carrying the beloved image of Sto. Nio, docked on Panalaron in Tacloban amidst the greetings of rejoicing Taclobanons. The procession now seemingly became a welcome for the patron. To commemorate this miraculous return of the image of the Sto. Nio, the date of the traditional esta of Tacloban was changed from the third Sunday of January to June 30 of every year, as it was further told. Another image of the Sr. Sto. Nio, called the El Sargento was a donation of a wealthy family in Tacloban years and years back. This image, smallest among the three, is the one being used in the annual celebration of the Sto. Nio in January and stays at the residence of the Hermanito of the year. Fr. Urbina, at this point, underscored Gods intervention in positive way, which is a reason to celebrate this miraculous event of June 30 more than a century ago. Thus, the faithful and the Taclobanons should equally give importance to the uvial and land processions as they would to other socio-cultural events like the Sta. Cruzan and other cultural festivals, besides the other esta-related religious activities.

was called Holy Name of Jesus. The feast of which was on the third Sunday of January each year. In the interim, nothing substantial was written on history books about the Roman Catholic faith in Tacloban, until 1888 when plans called for a very elaborate celebration of the town esta in 1889. For this, the image of the Sto. Nio has to be brought to Manila for repair, especially the cracks on its face. However, the sculptor who worked on the new vestment and other repair of the image of the Sto. Nio failed to repair the cracks on the Holy images face. The ship that was bringing the image back to Tacloban early of January 1889 was gutted by re off the seas of Semirara forcing the crew to jettison the cargoes overboard including the mission box bearing the image of the Sto. Nio and six candelarias. The image was never returned soon to Tacloban in time for the celebration of its feast. In the 2006 Souvenir Program of the Sr. Sto. Nio de Tacloban 117th Fiesta Celebration, a historical account printed thereon stated, As the date for the town esta observance approached, the people held their usual nine-day novena. With a borrowed image, the esta was celebrated as scheduled. Meanwhile, the Hermanidad bought a new image of the Sto. Nio as replacement of the missing image. This is now known as the El Teniente. It added, Sometime in May 1889, Don Jose Gil de Avalle, military governor of Leyte, recxeivedd a letter from the governor of Mindoro, informing the Leyte military governor that a box labeled Sto. Nio Patron of Tacloban was found oating on the sea by two shermnan just off the island of Semirara. Tales about it tell that the shermen saw the box with a child (a little boy) above it as it he was waving to them. Because of cu-
Soria orders manhunt operations vs suspects in Maasin shooting

CAMP KANGLEON, Palo, Leyte - Police Chief Superintendent Elmer Ragadio Soria of Police Regional Office 8 (PRO8) ordered a massive manhunt operations against the suspects and the conduct of thorough investigation in the shooting incident early morning Wednesday in Maasin City that claimed the lives of two brothers and the wounding of two others, including a 9-year old girl. We will get into the bottom of this incident, our investigators are looking into all possible angles on this case, said SORIA as he directed probers to conduct a thorough and exhaustive investigation to identify the suspects, establish the motive and file murder and frustrated murder charges in court against the suspects in the 2:00 a.m. shooting incident in Brgy. Nasaug, some 3 kilometers from the city proper. Soria identified the slain victims as Francis Ocson alias Antet, 31 and his brother Frederick, 34, while the wounded were identified as Estilito Sanchez, 27, and Franchette, the 9-year old daughter of Francis. Investigation disclosed that the Ocsons were having a party drinking and playing dart games with friends at their terrace when it turned into a bloodbath as two unidentified gunmen appeared on the street and started shooting at the victims. Francis sustained fatal gunshot wounds on his head and other parts of the body causing his direct death while Frederick was also hit at different parts of the body and was declared dead on arrival at the Salvacion Oppus Yiguez Memorial Provincial Hospital. Sanchez, on the other hand, was hit on his left shoulder while Franchette, who was sleeping at that time, was hit on her right arm. Suspects fled on foot after the shooting. Police recovered 25 fired cartridges of 9mm and .22 calibers at the crime scene and these were brought to Southern Leyte Provincial Crime Laboratory Office for ballistic examination while probers have already

No less than Douglas Adams, an English writer, said that to give service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity. People who pledge empty promises are people who cannot be trusted. The LMWD manager himself said that the water may be available in August, so it was not immediate. The photo-op was more of an election ploy. With regard the radio commentator he may be apprehensive he might loss his work if he will not look for anything intriguing; but surely if reconciliation will actually happen between camps and all other groups that are swept into the mess well, he has reason to be having tantrum and throw his bullets at anyone he fancies. He is the one barking at the wrong tree, the one out of tune. Taclobanons and Leyteos are now happy with the turn of events; it is not a long way off to real reconciliation. So he must brace himself, instead.

SSS Tacloban launches Alkansssya Program

TACLOBAN CITY- The Social Security System Tacloban Branch launched the Alkansssya Program on June 26, 2013 at the Tacloban City Jail. The program started in Las Pias with tricycle drivers and operators as beneficiaries. However, it widened its range in the Philippines with 150 associations from the informal sector joining the program. The SSS Alkansssya is a new program of the said agency which aims to encourage the informal sector like market vendors, drivers, farmers or those who dont have a permanent income to be a part and to practice innovative micro saving scheme in order to have a total security for the future. Moreover, a member can put any amount in the Alkansssya box as long as he/ she can reach the required minimum of P312.00 at the end of the month. However, if a member stopped the prior savings will be kept and that he/she can continue anytime. Furthermore, the program offers various benefits such as: requirement pension in which the family of the member can also benefit the pension; disability assistance, wherein the family of the member will receive a help from the agency whenever the member dies; educational assistance loan, works by lending an amount to the Northern Samar but they have to be proactive to prevent any sea mishaps. We will not allow ferry boats to leave Allen port as long as the province is still under storm signal. We have to wait for forecast from Pagasa, Montuya told Leyte Samar Daily Express. Meanwhile, the Office of the Civil Defense (OCD) has called on local government units in the three Samar provincmember for the purpose of education; maternity/sickness assistance, is to help a member in terms of laboring; and funeral assistance, is for assisting the funeral of a member. The benefits of the program depend upon the qualification of the member. I am encouraging every informal sector to join this program because it is very beneficial and it is something that they can count on whenever they are in need, SSS Assistant Vice President of Central Visayas Division Helen Solito said. I am positive that the mission of this program will be achieved, she added.

TACLOBAN CITY -The improvement of the water district solely for Tacloban concessionaires could have been more speedy had it not been due to meticulous government processes, said LMWD general manager Nestor Ganggang Villasin. Last June 22, Villasin toured members of the local media to its on going new water facilities in Binahaan River at Brgy. San Agustin, Jaro Leyte, and its new water treatment facility at the connecting river of Brgy. Tingib,Pastrana Leyte. According to Villasin, based on Commission On Audit regulations, they are only allowed for shopping of materials and equipment, without going thru a meticulous procedure, up to P100,000, but on a higher amount it must go
Villasin: Govt processes hampers speedy improvement of water district amounting to close to
through COA processes. Villasin further explained that when they need, for example, an equipment to be used in the construction, amounting to P500,000 and up, the process would last up to 3 months-which he said, causes so much delay on the project. Villasin, who was once a bank manager, said that he discussed it with concerned COA officials for a possibility of fast tracking the process other than what is required in the books of the commission. But the COA officials only told him that while they understand his predicament, they cant do anything but follow the COA procedures, said Villasin. The LMWDs Water Supply Expansion Project
P1 billion has two project components namely; Component 1: Construction of 32, 448 kms. length of a 24 inches diameter pipe lines, with approved budget for the contract of P600M-and with a winning bid of P458M which pipelines exclusive for Tacloban City only, and Component 2: Design and Build of a New Water Treatment Plant in Brgy. Tingib, Pastrana Leyte with approved budget for the contract amounting to P455M with winning bid of P437M. The project once completed, could produce a maximum of 50,000 cubic meters per day much more than the 30,000cubic meters daily water requirement for Tacloban City, said Villasin. (FRED

tuya said in a mobile phone interview yesterday afternoon. Allen is the exit point for land travelers from Mindanao and Eastern Visayas. Regular trips of roll-on roll-off vessels connect Samar to Matnog port in Sorsogon. The official said the sea was still calm in
es to brace for impact of the storm. OCD Regional Director Rey Gozon said governors and mayors were reminded to convene their respective local disaster risk reduction and management councils (LDRRMCs) to plan out rescue efforts and declare early cancellation of classes. Weather bulletins have been sent to local government units regu-
larly since yesterday to ensure that they are aware of current forecasts. They have to carry out preemptive evacuation for those living along the coast and low lying areas if necessary, Gozon said in a phone interview. Gorio, the seventh tropical cyclone to enter the country this year, may bring rainfall of 5-15 millimeters per hour (moderate - heavy) within the 500-kilometer diameter, according to the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
In yesterdays noon forecast Pagasa said the tropical depression was located 420 kilometers east of Surigao City with maximum sustained winds of 55 kilometers per hour. It was moving west northwest at nine kilometer per hour. Today, the storms center is expected to be 320 kilometers east of Maasin City in Southern Leyte. According to Pagasa, Gorio will enhance the southwest monsoon, which will bring moderate to occasionally heavy rains and thunderstorms over Vi-
sayas and Mindanao. Residents living in low lying and mountainous areas under storm signal number one were alerted against possible flashfloods and landslides. Potential impacts include twigs and branches of trees may be broken, some banana plants may tilt or land flat on the ground, rice in flowering stage may suffer significant damage and some nipa and cogon houses may be partially unroofed.
