For the sake of peaceful elections
Gov bent on reaching
out to poll candidates
BY JENNA LUMBANG
FLORIDABLANCA, Pampanga – Gov. Lilia Pineda is
bent on meeting her fellow local
candidates in all municipalities
and cities in the province to appease them and make an appeal
for the maintenance of peace and
order especially this election.
In a command conference
held in upland barangay Nabu-
clod here, attended by the provincial police officers and chiefs
of police (COPs), the governor
disclosed her plan to pacify the
opposing candidates and parties who are tossing negative
statements and issues against
each other and she will also ask
them to cooperate in the promotion of peaceful election.

Capitol vows continuous
renovation of PNP stations
Headline
Gitnang Luzon
APRIL 12-14, 2013
By Jenna Lumbang
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO
– In a bid to improve the quality
of service rendered by the Philippine National Police (PNP), the
provincial government vowed to
continue the general renovation
projects of all dilapidated municipal police stations (MPS) in
the whole province.
Governor Lilia G. Pineda
said if she would be reelected,
she is very much willing to provide funds for the construction
of new MPS conducive to the
work place of the police officers
who are rendering services to
the people, which is part of the
peace and order program of her
administration.
“The provincial government
is open for the request of the
PNP, be it repair or total rehabilitation of the police stations and
construction of a new sub-station. The lot should be provided
by the municipal government or
the PNP headquarters and the
Capitol will fund the construction of the station,” Pineda told
the police officers in a command
conference held at Nabuclod,
Floridablanca yesterday.
For the construction of a
new substation, the governor advised the chiefs of police to scout
for strategic places to improve
police visibility in their areas.
It was learned that the MPS
of Arayat and Floridablanca are
the initial beneficiaries of the
peace and order infrastructure
projects of the Pineda administration as they were the first one
to submit requests for construc-
tion.
“If there is no need for the
construction of a PNP office, you
can ask for other projects such as
provision of equipment or facilities needed by the police station
or anything that could help your
operation and maintenance of
peace and order,” Pineda told the
chiefs of police.
In response, Senior Supt.
‘Rwin Pagkalinawan, police
provincial director, said to further improve the performance
of the police personnel they
need a station conducive for
planning and investigation.
“A police station speaks a lot
about the quality of service rendered by the PNP. This is where
we conduct investigation, entertain complaints, process documents needed for court hear-
ings, and a temporary dwelling
for PNP personnel on duty,” said
Pagkalinawan.
Pagkalinawan said the provincial police office (PPO) is very
fortunate because the provincial
government and the local government units are cooperative
and receptive to the needs of the
PNP.
Aside from police stations,
the provincial government is
helping the PNP through the
constructions of PNP-AFP action centers in the strategic
places of the province; distribution of mobile patrols, SWAT
Van; intelligence and operation
equipment; training of barangay tanods; and, provision of
motorcycle patrols to all the 505
barangays in the province just to
maintain peace and order. ●

1 dead, 2 wounded in SF road mishap
CAMP OLIVAS, Pampanga--One person died while two
others were injured when the vehicle they were riding collided
with a trailer truck on the opposite lane along the MacArthur
Highway in the City of San Fernando on Tuesday.
The fatality was identified as Jhamir Fabian, 28, and a resident of Barangay Bulaon, in the same city. Those injured, on
the other hand, were Raymond Gutierrez, 21, and Michael
Abalos, 22, of Barangays Malpitic and Quebiawan, respectively, all of the same city.
According to police investigation, Fabian and his passengers (Gutierrez and Abalos) aboard tricycle were cruising
along Macarthur corner Holy Angel Village in Barangay Telebastagan around 2 a.m. and that while overtaking another
vehicle bumped a Fuso Tractor Truck driven by Ricardo Sorondo, 49, and resident of 419 Calantipay, Baliuag, Bulacan.
As a result of the impact Fabian, Gutierez and Abalos
sustained injuries and were all brought to the Jose B. Lingad
memorial Hospital.
However, Fabian was declared dead on arrival by an attending physician.
Police said the driver of the truck is now under the custody
of the City of San Fernando Police station pending filing of a
case of reckless imprudence resulting in homicide, physical
injuries and damage to property. • (FEM)

Pineda leads Porac district hospital turn-over
By Angelique Tuazon
PORAC, Pampanga –
Governor Lilia G. Pineda,
with councilor bet Maynard Lapid, led the inauguration and turnover of
the newly-renovated Porac
District Hospital Thursday.
However, the facility
was renamed as Jose Songco Lapid District Hospital
to give due recognition to
the father of Senator Lito
Lapid through a resolution
approved by the provincial
board.
It was learned that
the hospital was funded
through the Priority Devel-
opment Assistance Fund
(PDAF) of Senator Lito
Lapid and the Department
of Health (DOH) with P25
million and P10 million,
respectively.
Dr. Romulo Lacson,
chief of hospital, expressed
his gratitude to the senator,
represented by his son and
to Dr. Leonita Gorgolon of
the Center for Health and
Development (DOH-CHD

Use of Lazatin ‘impersonator’ in campaign hit for Comelec,
PCOS integrity
‘Baddest of bad tastes’
By Marna Dagumboy-Del Rosario
ANGELES CITY – Because
Congressman Carmelo “Tarzan” Lazatin can no longer
physically bear the rigors of
the campaign, as temperatures continue to rise, a lookalike of the congressman,
with the same white beard
trim and signature hat but
looking younger, healthier
and shorter than the 78-year
old veteran politician, is making the rounds and pumping
hands along with the Team
Lazatin.
“Deception is now clearly
the mark of Lazatin, even in
his campaign. He simply has
very low regard to the Angeleño voters,” said lawyer Dennis Albert Pamintuan of the
Team Agyu Tamu.
“Hayagan na nilang
niloloko ang mga Angeleño,”
he said. “This is baddest of
bad tastes,” he added.
The Lazatin “impersonator,” identified as Abel
Garcia, a meat vendor at the
Pampang market, is making
the rounds along with Pogi
Lazatin, son of the congressman who is running for councilor, and other Team Lazatin
candidates. His pictures were
posted in Lazatin’s Facebook
account pumping hands during a house-to-house visit.
“The sick stunt of Team
Lazatin already is a foreshadowing of what will happen in
the unfortunate event that
Lazatin will be mayor again.
City hall will be run by impersonators and dubious personalities with no accountability
to the people,” he said.
“He faked his filing of
candidacy. He is also faking
his campaigning. I hope our
people will realize this brazen
display of disrespect to them,”
he added.
It will be recalled that
Lazatin organized a motorcade on October 5 last year,
the last day of filing of the certificate of candidacies (CoC),
to publicly announce his formal filing of candidacy. Records of the Commission on
Elections, however, indicated
he actually filed his CoC the
day earlier.
During the signing of a
covenant for peaceful and
honest elections among candidates sponsored by the Parish
Pastoral Council for Responsible Politics (PPCRP), the
Comelec and other civil society groups, Lazatin skipped
the “unity walk” and just
stayed in his air-conditioned
van.
He also did not stage an
“opening salvo” to his campaign, unsure to match the
throng of 15,000 people that
attended the opening salvo of
incumbent Mayor Edgardo
Pamintuan.
Lazatin’s campaign sorties have mainly attracted a
motley of people, mostly his
campaign workers and a few
residents in the areas where
his caucuses are held. In contrast, Pamintuan’s rallies have
been jampacked with people.
The “crowds,” according
to observers, are actually in
his “jungle base” residence in
the City of San Fernando. ●
Senator:
Clark airport
a blessing
By Charlene A. Cayabyab
CLARK
FREEPORT-A senatorial bet from the
Aquino
administration
party said this Freeport is
“blessed” for having an airport.
“Pagdating sa airport,
blessed ang Clark,” Team
PNoy senatoriable Aquilino
“Koko” Pimentel III said
during a press briefing here
on yesterday.
Pimentel, son of former
Senate President Aquilino
“Nene” Pimentel Sr., said the
Clark International Airport
(CIA) should be developed
as another premier international hub.
“Why not develop Clark
as another international
hub? Magiging efficient ang
NAIA (Ninoy Aquino International Airport) without
any spending,” Pimentel
said adding that,”[The money that will be spent for the
proposed NAIA expansion],
spend it sa Clark na lang.”
Pimentel was in Clark
after attending the groundbreaking rites of the P2-billion Midori Hotel, the first
five star hotel here.
He said he wanted to see
developments in the Freeport to serve as “possible
template” for the development of Mindanao after the
peace talks.
“I saw how you treat your
investors. You have guaranteed power supply, among
others, which Mindanao
should assure to investors
in the future,” Pimentel said.
Pimentel said he plans
to establish a railway system
in the Mindanao region to
serve as backbone of development efforts there.
“Isang pakiusap ko sa
Senate, bigyan ng lugar ang
Mindanao,” Pimentel said.
Pimentel was appointed
by former President Fidel
Ramos as commissioner
representing Mindanao of
the National Youth Commission from 1995 to 1998.
Pimentel’s father, Nene,
is a native of Batac, Ilocos
Norte and Northern Mindanao. ●

Focus on solutions rather than problems – Angara
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO--“Dwelling on
problems will not rid us
of them; finding solutions
will.”
Entering the final
month of the campaign
period for the May midterm national elections
and following a weekend
of global tensions, Team
PNoy senatorial candidate Edgardo “Sonny” Angara called on Filipinos
to focus on finding lasting solutions to the deepseated problems and festering issues of the country.
Angara launched his
“Solusyon” campaign to inspire and rally the people,
especially the youth, to
rise above their problems
through a proactive search
for solutions.
“Sa bawat isyu at problema ng ating bansa, hindi
panibagong isyu at problema ang sagot. Ang kailangan natin ay tiyak at epektibong solusyon. (A problem
will not be solved by creat-
ing a new problem, nor an
issue resolved by raising
another issue. What we
need are effective solutions
to the very real problems
and issues that we face),”
Angara said.
“Huwag na natin pagpapatong-patungin
ang
mga isyu’t problema. Umiwas na tayo sa kontrobersiya, umiwas na tayo sa
intriga. Tumutok tayo sa
solusyon.” (Controversies
and intrigues will get us
nowhere. We have to focus
on solutions.)
This approach reflects
the philosophy that has
guided the work and performance of the three-term
representative of Aurora
Province who, during his
stint in Congress, has been
dedicated in finding definite
and effective solutions to
the problems of the country.
Angara topped the list
of “prolific and hardworking members of the House
of Representatives” for filing the most number of
bills of national importance
that were enacted into law
during the 14th Congress.
“Ganyan po ang kailangan nating tao. Hindi
kung sino ang popular, ang
pa-cute, ang pa-pogi. Ang
kailangan ay kung sino ang
tama ang ipinaglalaban.
Kaya walang kaduda-duda
para sa akin na kapag nilagay natin si Sonny Angara
sa Senado, gagara talaga
ang buhay ng mga Pilipino,” said President Benigno
“Noynoy” Aquino III during a sortie of Team PNoy
in Cavite.
House Speaker Feliciano Belmonte also echoed
this sentiment, noting
during an LP Proclamation Rally in Quezon City
recently: “Nakita ko ang
sentido sa taong ito. Ang
kaniyang direksyon, ang
kaniyang pagnanais na
magkaroon ng dekalidad
na edukasyon para sa bansa. Si Sonny Angara ang
karapat-dapat ibotong senador.” ●
By Joey Pavia
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – Sen. Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III on Thursday
expressed confidence
in the leadership of
the Commission on
Elections (Comelec),
saying the poll body
is led by officials who
earlier fought election
fraud.
Pimentel,
who
is seeking re-election under the Liberal Party (LP), said
Comelec Chairman
Sixto Brilliantes had
fought election fraud
in 2007 and “I was
with him.”
He added that
former Isabela governor and now Comelec
Commissioner Grace
Padaca “was also a
victim” of election
cheating.
But
Pimentel
stressed that efforts
should be made to
end all election fraud
and that “the crusade
is not yet over.”
He added that
among the effective
means to stop cheating “is to inform the
people about the details of the election
and the system we use
in the country.”
Pimental was interviewed when he
launched in Pampanga a “kapihan” organized to fight election
fraud.
“I have to start
this Kapihan because
many want to join our
crusade to stop cheating,” said Pimentel,
who filed an election
protest shortly after
the 2007 elections.
Pimentel
said
the automated elections in 2010 “was
reliable because only
two election protests
prospered.” He cited
the incidents in Imus,
Cavite and a town in
Cebu province.
The Comelec will
use for the second
time the PCOS in the
elections.
Pimental, a bar
top-notch in 1990,
suffered a defeat from
then Bukidnon Rep.
Juan Miguel Zubiri
who got to secure the
12th slot with a narrow margin of some
18,000 votes in a recount held in July
2007.
Pimentel questioned Zubiri’s proclamation before the
Supreme Court (SC),
saying he was cheated in Maguindanao
province. But the SC
dismissed his petitions.
After four years of
protest, Pimentel won
the recount before the
Senate Electoral Tribunal, which forced
Zuburi to step down.
Pimentel officially became senator in
August 2011. ●

pharmacy and laboratory.
The hospital chief added the facility has
been serving the residents of this town and
nearby areas for 33 years now and continues
to strive in the provision of quality yet affordable health services.
For its part, the provincial government
will allocate an annual budget of P1 million
for the operational expenses of the hospital.
“Porac residents would not need to go
to Diosdado Macapagal Memorial Hospital
or other hospitals in Angeles City anymore.
They now have a government health facility
that will attend to their medical needs at a
very low cost, even free for PhilHealth members.” Pineda stressed.
The governor also reminded the medical
staff to always show compassion to patients
instead of indifference as indigents are the
usual clients of government hospitals.
“Let us show our appreciation for the
funding allotted by the national government
and Senator Lapid through the provision
of quality health services to each and every
patient, regardless of their status,” Pineda
ended.
The inauguration was also witnessed by
Board Members Olga Frances “Fritzie” David-Dizon and Salvador Dimson Jr., Mayor
Condralito dela Cruz, Vice Mayor Dexter
David, Councilor Mike Tapang and Guagua
Councilor Anthony Joseph Torres, a candidate for board member in the Second District. ●

No swim zone
Local government units along
the stretch of the Pampanga River
should declare the waters of the
river “no swim” zones to ensure
that the drowning incidents that involved 5 individuals last Tuesday
and another two on Wednesday
will not happen again.
While the Pampanga River is
a source of many livelihood for
many, its value as recreational
area should not include it being
a swimming area. This should be
emphasized by the accident that
caused the death of couple Alvin
and Rhea Guevarra, of their two
children and a niece.
Based on reports, the five victims drowned when the boat
they were riding capsized amid a
heavy downpour. The water of the
river was perhaps too murky at
that point--sediments and all--for
someone to swim properly, even if
one knows how to swim.
The following day, two others
died in the river for attempting to
relieve the heat of the summer.
Pampanga River snakes through
the province of Pampanga from
Arayat town down to Masantol.
It usually flows slowly but could
sometimes move rapidly when
rains pour in areas among its tributaries.
The unpredictability of the river’s current make it dangerous for
swimming.
LGUs should also regulate boat
loads. Like any other means of
transportation, there should be
bodies that supervise the movements of boats that could be more
dangerous than land transports.

“The prison
environment
has changed
as even detainees are
receiving some
benefits from
the capitol
leadership.”
It’s been a couple of years since the last time
I stepped my foot inside the Pampanga Provincial Jail. Once inside the penal facility that is evidently overcrowded, I wondered how were the
living conditions of inmates while serving their
sentences or merely waiting for their verdicts of
their cases.
***
The jail facility is quite antiquated, being built
in 1907 originally housing the courts of the province. With just the view of it, you can feel to be
going back in time with respect to its structural
design and the materials used in constructing
the building. It has survived time though including the yearly havoc of lahar flows after the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo.
***
I was told that the facility even suffered minor fires and string of earthquakes through the
passage of time, evidencing the fact that the
structure is quite aged. When I visited its second
floor, I stepped on its wooden floors, a rarity now
for residential, commercial or office buildings. It
has a lot of adobe walls that withstood environmental degradation until today.
***
Due to its antiquity, the jailhouse is more fit-
ting to be a museum rather than a penal facility. It’s a heritage structure anyway for the city
and the province being a former court building
that outlived other buildings within the vicinity
of the capitol compound. There seems to be no
problem with the building per se, except that it is
now overcrowded with inmates. The great number of inmates that is far from the ideal results
into great inconvenience of prisoners who are
seemed to be suffocated by their number.
***
I remember the Provincial Jail Warden then
in the person of Mr. Christopher Carreon who
openly discussed the conditions of inmates in
their stay at the provincial jail. I believe he has
retired from the service after serving perhaps a
couple of decades of being the jail boss. The lack
of subsidy and adequate funding from the provincial government are his reasons for the then
state of the provincial jail.
***
After years of its historic existence, it’s good
to know that it has been repaired, renovated
and rehabilitated. Last Wednesday, an expansion building of the old provincial jail was inaugurated by Governor Lilia Pineda. A project of

Conversations
Ditak Mung Amanu
“Oh well, I just had them in the last one and a half months of my life…”
A person isn’t who they are during the last conversation you had
with them--they’re who they’ve been
throughout your whole relationship.
– Rainer Maria Rilke
A conversation is a dialogue, not
a monologue. That’s why there are so
few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom
meet. – Truman Capote
My idea of good company is the
company of clever, well-informed
people who have a great deal of conversation; that is what
I call good company. –
Jane Austen
The reason why so
few people are agreeable
in conversation is that
each is thinking more
about what he intends
to say than others are
saying. – Francois de La
Rochefoucauld
kung bakit kailangan ko pang hingin
sa ‘yo ang pagsasabi ng ‘I love you’ at
‘Mwah’ sa mga text messages mo sa
akin.”
“E bakit mo kasi hinihingi? Bakit
hindi mo na na lang hintayin na ibigay
ko sa ‘yo ng kusa?”
“‘Yon na nga ang pinupunto ko eh:
Bakit kailangan ko pang hingin ang
mga simpleng bagay na dapat sana ay
kusa mo ng ibinibigay?”

“Why are you always late?”
“Because I’m always busy?”
“Always? That’s a lame
excuse! Tell me the truth.
Why are you always late?!”
“Because you are always

“Kaya pala hindi ka nawawala sa

How could you forget these kinds
of conversations? But mind you, these
kinds of conversations do not happen
every day and all the time. And when
they happen, you can’t help but marvel at their humour, depth, and intensity. These kinds of conversations enrich our being fully human and fully
alive. Think about it.
Now ask this to yourself: When
was the last time you had a kind of
these conversations? Oh well, I just
had them in the last one and a half
months of my life…the last one was
just last Monday. It is just my regret
that I cannot have them published
here in my column. They are too
mushy to merit publication.
And too conversational and foolish as well (with or without the necessary or unnecessary interruption
from an E-IC). (Lol!). •

In the Philippine setting...
(part 2 of 3)
Outside
Looking In
Mark Lendle L. Toloza
“But talk about
the current mentality? The social
ills? I’d rather
be here, in a free
country. ”
This is the continuation of my three-part
article, which contributes factual concepts
that shouldn’t be overlooked or be disregarded in our dear country, the Philippines. My
aim is to make some facts surface in a full
spectrum analysis, and not in a biased perspective.
For “a problem well stated is a problem
half solved” as said by Charles Kettering, an
engineer and inventor in great America. For
long years, we haven’t reached the elite status like any great countries like USA, France,
and all that. Filipinos migrate to different
countries in full stride, for some undeniable
reasons. We love our country, but in the Philippine setting...
..human rights violations dwell at length
“Injustice anywhere, is a threat to justice
everywhere” as stated by the late Martin Luther King, Jr. A large scale account of social
injustice and human rights violations reside
in our country way back since the past administrations, and time immemorial. False
imprisonment, journalists and media men
being murdered, political prisoners on record, crimes and discrimination against
women, character assassination and false
accusations, bigotry, discrimination against
those mentally-challenged and people with
disabilities, enforced suicide, torture, psychological manipulations, labor injustice,
power trip, social and political elitism, et al.
This is the reality in the Philippines, and no
matter how the media incorporates a gentler
and kinder picture in our country, you will
feel this, it’s undeniable.
..self-expression is, sometimes, a taboo
Ok, I know what the point-of-view of people is regarding freedom: it’s not absolute,
and freedom and responsibility have a corelation. Be it, and I couldn’t agree more. But,
what is disturbing is that, in the Philippines,
self-expression as a way of expressing one’s
personality, ideas, emotions, through speech,
literature or art has been very selective. My
point is, we have the right to disagree at all
cost, but no one has the right to demonize the
character of an individual, condemn or dissent the person because of ideas and art that
were unconventional or not ordinary, and opposing to their appeal or personal taste.
Eraserheads, a Pinoy musical rock band
that rocked mainstream success in the ‘90s,
was hailed as one of the most influential and
significant bands in the history of the Filipino music turf. With their solid success, their
music was accompanied by controversies.
The curse word in one of their songs shocked
the populous with dual mass reactions: some
liked it, some did not. There are also those
who opposed the band, stating that there is
an alleged drug message conveyed in subtlety.
Ely Buendia, the lead vocalist and frontman of the band, jokingly said after they
performed their hit single “Alapaap” in a TV
show with APO Hiking Society, “sa October
1 nasa senado ulit kami, may concert kami
dun.” This sarcastic remark was made because of the controversy circling around the
band at that time.
How about vile topic? those unpleasant,
disturbing topics made by an artist rather
than sugarcoating the mass appeal. A very
fit-to-the-glove example of this, is the American musical artist, producer and actor who
garnered different awards, acclaimed also
and ranked by the Rolling Stone magazine
in their list of Top 100 Greatest Artists of All
Time, and sold more than 100 million albums
to date, around the world. Blatant about his
personal life, and magnified in his rap albums, Eminem has some heavy list of songs
with vile topics like the disturbing song: “97

1 2 6 7 5 8 3 4 9
You could be spreading yourself too thin with regard to time and work. When this occurs you may
have the tendency to take the stress out on yourself. This could be in the form of food or in rebelling
against responsibilities in general. There is a chance that you could make some wrong choices today,
in particular as they affect your professional life. Take your noon break away from your desk! This will
help relieve frustrations. It may be good to set aside time for a little rest and relaxation this afternoon.
Your taste in art is enhanced. You may agree to take a walk with a family member after work for exercise
and enjoy building upon the relationship. Maintaining good relationships with loved one is the perfect
way to promote a smile.
CANCER (JUN 22- JUL 22)
Your management abilities are in high focus and you use them to express your talents in turning negatives into positives. This may mean emotions as well as budgets. Your suggestions in the workplace will
help to make a positive difference today. This afternoon you and friends are learning some new work
technique. This could mean you are learning to work on the plumbing in the house or learning to change
the oil in your vehicle. Friends are our only true riches and the satisfaction that comes from accomplishing things in cooperation with others is something no one can take away from you. These are the things
you will enjoy today either at work or away from the work environment. Domestic and personal needs
come to your attention this evening.
LEO (JUL 23 - AUG. 23)
Stay on track with your work and keep your attention focused this morning. There will be interruptions
from co-workers today. You will, however, be persuasive with others in speech and communication. Any
question about procedure will go your way. This afternoon is the time to push your ideas--just make sure
you have proof or examples of how your ideas can work. Others will listen and praise you for having
put everything together so well. You can be a vital force for good in the community at this time. You
could also inspire and help to mold young people through volunteering in a community organization.
Young people can bring you as much joy and respect as you give to them, especially through your
acknowledgment of their individuality.
LIBRA (SEP. 23 - OCT. 23)
Today you concentrate on organizing your desk, your duties and your business projects. Perhaps this
is a time for serious thinking, getting down to the essential thoughts. Studies of all kinds are in order
now. Today is a blessing in disguise. A desired opportunity will come to you if you are patient. Stay
centered! This afternoon some new information received from a sibling or neighbor helps to broaden
your understanding of some sensitive situation from the past. Don’t take this lightly--react with concern-just know that it is a light bulb moment. People find you fascinating. The work you have been doing on
stress relief techniques is working; you may find a healing in process. A romance or deepening of an
ongoing relationship may now seem ideal.
SCORPIO (OCT. 24- NOV. 21)
You want to be recognized by co-workers for your hard work. There is a possibility that during this time,
work as a whole will come under scrutiny--you receive positive recognition. You do special little things
to create this positive recognition and you are becoming quite pleased at the way your workday ends.
In-depth discussions and probing conversations find you at your mental best. Your analytical abilities
are at a high point. This is a great time to be with others and to work together. It is important not to let
personal, especially romantic relationships, interfere with your work. For the most part, you should try
to merge both work and pleasure in the best productive way possible. Do not worry too much about
how others think of you or your abilities.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22 - DEC. 21)
Progress in business seems good through the end of this month. Work, achievement and ambition are
things that mean a lot to you. Your inner security will play a principal role now, although your material
security will still be high on your list of priorities. You may find yourself letting go of lots of odd and ends
around your work arena today. Cleaning off desk, table and cabinets may keep you busy all afternoon.
Perhaps this is inventory time for your company or some other similar process, because you are not the
only one cleaning up and clearing away. You may find yourself looking for a little romance this evening
or enjoying some emotional release. This is a year of opportunity. Keep a balance and perspective.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 - JAN 19)
Good practical job-related thoughts and ideas are easy to find. You have the ability to exchange ideas
with superiors in solving difficult situations. You have a natural sense for communicating with others,
especially those younger than you. You are energized, giving you a sense of invulnerability in everything you do. It would be a good idea to check all aspects of a project you are working on to find out
where your energies can be best applied. This evening you could find yourself put to good use by your
friends or the young people in your neighborhood. Your thinking process is good, making communications with friends easy. This is a good time to clear the air of any problems. Expressing affections
comes easily now.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20 - FEB. 18)
Yesterday and today have been quite stressful but you are learning to identify, change or eliminate the
things that cause you stress. This is a good time to concentrate on your body so that the stress does
not affect you physically. Detoxify, tone and balance can be the secrets to good health--a massage
might also be fun. Others, especially those in authority, could place demands and restrictions on your
day. Take this one step at a time and know that everything passes on through our experience and
prepares us for the next step. There is good news today in the financial sector of your horoscope. If you
are looking for a new way to gain income, seek something that will challenge your mind this evening.
Loved ones may want to help.
PISCES (FEB. 19 - MAR. 20)
The way you live and perhaps your career and basic life direction, may be changing. An outgoing and very
expressive cycle of experience has begun for you. Now, more than ever, you want to be admired and appreciated by others, to do and create things that stir their hearts. You are able to get at what is beneath and behind
problems today. Whether it is an unhappy customer or the testing of new equipment, it is your discoveries that
will make the difference. Real insight into your own inner workings could surface as well. A gathering of friends
or neighbors may create opportunities to chat about dreams. Someone has a dream diary and everyone enjoys the conversations. You enjoy the evening and not having so many responsibilities for a change.

FUEL SMUGGLING from Page 1
Media reports cited that Oban,
the former CDC-Officer-in-Charge
and Chairman of the Board, was
allegedly linked to fuel smuggling
during his time as CDC top honcho.
Newly installed CDC President
Tugade called for a management
committee meeting immediately
after reports of Oban’s alleged involvement in fuel smuggling was
published citing highly-placed
CDC officials as sources.
Engr. Mariz Mandocdoc, vice
president for Business Development and Business Enhancement
Group, reported before the Mancom, chaired by Tugade, the process and protocol of fuel shipment
to Clark.
Mandocdoc stated the follow-
MAGBALAWE from Page 4
ing facts: no fuel shipment to Clark
as the area is landlocked; the bulk
of fuel entry to Clark is through an
underground pipeline from Subic;
CDC follows a series of protocol to
ensure fuel transfer from Subic;
CDC would receive fuel transfer
from Subic with a corresponding Bring- Out Document from
Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA), which is the basis of
CDC to authorize the entry of fuel
to Clark through a Bring-In Document, Mandocdoc added.
Mandocdoc further stated that
the volume of fuel coming to Clark
is properly checked by CDC and by
SGS, a third party entry and the actual entry is reflected in the bringin form.
CDC has been known to be
strict as far as permitting movement of fuel in the Freeport Zone.
There are also existing protocols to account for fuel movement
once inside the zone.
Regular reports are submitted
to several concerned departments
in CDC to account for fuel movement in the zone.
Mandocdoc and concerned
managers of CDC said that they are
not aware of any deviation from the
established protocol and that they
did not receive instructions from
Oban to violate existing procedures.
Tugade said that concerned
CDC departments must be strict
in following protocols in fuel shipment in and out of the Freeport. ●

town’s chief of police, I will personally seek the mutual
support of the mayoral and vice mayoral candidates to
ensure that no one will get hurt because of the election,”
Pineda said.
Pineda said she will also ask the poll bets to avoid
mudslinging and character assassination as campaign
strategy because these things might provoke resentment
to the other candidates and supporters.
“From the very beginning, I’ve been appealing to all
candidates and their camp to stay away from dirty tactics in campaigning. The people are responsible and intelligent enough. If you are a contender just present your
good plans and platforms; for incumbents show your accomplishments,” she said.
Pineda has been meeting different sectors, barangay
officials and tanods in the province since the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) declared
Pampanga as one of the 15 hot spot provinces this May
2013 elections.
“We have to prove to them that Kapampangans are
not violent and we are united in the promotion of peaceful election,” she told them.
Police Senior Superintendent ‘Rwin Pagkalinawan
said the initiative of the governor is very effective in instilling in the minds and consciousness of the people
their big role in observing peace and order in their respective area.
“The PNP and the people should work together
if we really want to achieve peaceful election. And
we are optimistic that the Kapampangan will follow
the appeal of the governor,” said Pagkalinawan.
Pineda said she advocates that no person, no
candidate shall be harmed because of the election. ●

when he finally steps down from
Malacanang three years from now.
“More than 12,000 hectares of
denuded forestlands, mangrove
areas and watersheds throughout
Central Luzon have been planted
with 7.5 million assorted seedlings
of forest and fruit trees since 2011,”
Dichoso said, noting that these new
forests are an addition to the region’s
defense against natural calamities
as typhoons and flooding.
The DENR 3 also aims to rehabilitate until 2022 at least 44,000
ha of denuded forestlands at the
Pantabangan-Carranglan Watershed in Nueva Ecija through the 10year Forest Management Program
(FMP) supported by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
Dichoso said that while government revenues from forest charges
in Central Luzon declined by P1.3
million last year as a result of the
total log ban in natural and residual
forests, forest cover is expected to almost double in 10 years.
“This is more than what we bargained for, given the need for our
forests to take a break from logging
and for our natural resources to fully
recover in the face of the real threats
of global warming and climate
change,” he said.
Government revenues collected
by the DENR out of forestry charges
and land regulation services in Central Luzon declined by eight percent
last year, official records showed.
Government fees and charges
reached P54 million in 2010, about
80 percent of which came from forestry charges paid by logging concessions in Aurora. ●

like Ate Grace. Papa had a lot of plans.
I’m sure she knew about them and she
could carry out those plans.”
Sina Lovi at Grace ay kapwa anak
ng namayapang Hari ng Pelikulang
Filipino na si Fernando Poe Jr. na tumakbo sa pagkapangulo noong taong
2004 subalit natalo laban kay dating
Pangulong Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Si Lovi ay anak ni FPJ sa dating
commercial model na si Rowena Moran na nakasama ni Da King sa pelikulang “Kapag Puno na ang Salop”
nuong taong 1987 habang ang 44-any-

os na si Mary Grace naman ay adopted
daughter nina FPJ at Susan Roces.
“Nagplastikan lang ba sila nuon
(Lovi at Grace)? Bakit hindi sumasama si Lovi Poe para ikampanya ang
kanyang kapatid?” tanong ng isang
political observer na sumusubaybay
sa kampanya ng Team P-Noy.
Sinabi pa ng isang political observer, sa ginawang pagbisita ng Team
P-Noy sa Urdaneta, Pangasinan nitong nakalipas na Abril 4, taliwas sa
kanyang ama na may kakaibang karisma na humahatak sa atensyon ng
mga tao kapag nagsalita na sa ibabaw
ng entablado ay kabaligtaran naman
ang kay Grace na halos walang nakikinig.
“Hindi ako na-impress nung
magsalita siya, malayo sa ama niya.
Dito niya kailangan si Lovi na dahil
artista ay tiyak malaki ang hatak sa
tao,” ani pa ng isang political observer
na idinagdag pa na “Pero tingin ko
malabong mangyari, hindi sila sabay
lumaki. They don’t see eye to eye, malamang may sibling rivalry. Magkaiba
ang ina eh.” ●

Yuson and Traquina, on the other hand, were arrested during a fist fight against each other.
Police said two police officers were on mobile patrol
when they noticed a commotion along 20th street corner
Fontaine St. in Barangay East Bajac-bajac at about 4:30 a.m.
When the two police officers tried to pacify the suspects, a .22 caliber revolver was accidentally dropped by
Tranquina prompting the policemen to arrest the duo.
During the investigation and body search, police also recovered one transparent sachet each containing shabu from
the suspects.
Police said both Yuson and Traquina were brought
to the Olongapo City Police Station 1 for proper disposition.● (FEM)

The old building cannot

OUTSIDE LOOKING IN from Page 5
Bonnie and Clyde”. The song “Kim” is a song which detailed
his anger, and not an intent, to have physical abuse to his
wife whom he had marital problems with. Lyricists critique
this song as “a fast-paced, emotional artistry that envelopes
dark emotions done in stunning wordplay.”
Now I know verily, that this art form is unacceptable in
the Philippines. If Eminem is situated in the Philippines and
had Filipino audience, no doubt, he will be labeled as insane,
criminal and ungodly. Where truth of the matter is that this
is just an emotional outlet; the flushing of dark emotions
that succumbed a man; the preservation of sanity; to salvage
or in other simple words, to save or rescue the troubled artist with dark experiences that torture him. From the great
words of Thich Nhat Hanh, “When another person makes
you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and
his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment;
he needs help. That’s the message he is sending.”
The Eminem’s, the Van Gogh’s, they did what was
deemed unconventional. In the Philippines, conservatism,
corporate groups, and all those purists have the right to
disagree, or not promote this kind of art form; but it will be
unconstitutional if they persecute those artists, and cross
the line of liberty and human rights.
..tv has been a way of life
Sociologists define the mass media as the tao, or the way of life
to widespread audiences. The populace could easily accumulate
force-fed ideas through visual media, as it’s a most potent form.
Filipinos are fond of watching TV, it’s been a part of
Pinoy’s life. Teleserye and all this stuff, have been a daily
habit for many. Those days were missed when TV’s function is to inform and to entertain, with balanced stance. But
the sad part is that some propagandists used the effect of
visual media for personal upperhand like disinformation,
and the showing of just one part and not a full spectrum
viewpoint, the biased media as they call it. That is why a
lot of sociologists warn people to be cautious of what the
media feeds on you. From their own words “don’t believe
anything you see, and anything you hear, love yourself.”
Why am I adding this concept? Quite frankly because this
power of mass indoctrination that the media injects on its audiences by their news and entertainment, could build up bigotry
and other social ills which is a byproduct of the failure of a country to reach its elite status. Look at France, no need to mention
its success. Polite people in here, with fair mentality with everything, and a healthy environment if you talk about its social
nature, and most importantly, a high regard for human rights.
Don’t get the idea twisted, I love my country. The food. The
culture. My native language. The places. But talk about the
current mentality? The social ills? I’d rather be here, in a free
country. Again.. no matter how much we incorporate a gentler, kinder picture of the Philippine situation, many may conceal all I’ve mentioned above and sugarcoat the bitter truth?
It’s undeniable. You will feel it. •

naging boyfriends niya. Sa
tatlong past niya, si Rachel
ay iniwan sa ere, pero wala

Her past three BFs, Christian Bautista, Gab Valenciano and John Prats, have
all moved on and had other
girlfriends, but she remains
unattached.
“I prefer it that way. Dahil
meron na sila, kailangan bang
meron din ako? Ayoko ngang
madaliin. I’m very happy to
be single. I can’t explain in
words why sobrang happy ko

Carmina Villaroel nais maging network executive
Sobrang idol pala ni Carmina
Villaroel ang dating aktres at
president ng ABS-CBN ngayon na
si Charo Santos-Concio. In fact, isa
raw ito sa pangarap niyang mainterview para sa Showbiz Inside
Report.
“Kasi, ever since, noong bata
pa lang ako, Vision Films pa lang
ang inaano (production company)
niya, hindi pa Star Cinema, lagi ko
siyang kasama sa movie,” pagbabalik-tanaw ni Carmina.
“So, gusto kong maging parang
siya. Gusto ko kung hindi man
ako magiging super-active na sa
pag-aartista at paghu-host, gusto
ko mag-work behind the camera,”
sabi niya.
So, gusto niya ring maging
presidente ng network?
“Why not, mag-aambisyon na
lang ako, why not, di ba?”
Ayon pa kay Mina, sobrang
interesting daw ng buhay ni Ma’m
Charo kaya gusto raw niya itong
ma-explore kung papayag daw
itong magpa-interview.
“Like how she started bilang artista and kung paano siya napunta
behind the cameras, knowing that
she was a good actress. And paano
at bakit siya nag-work behind the
cameras and paano niya na-achieve
where she is now. Pati kung paano
harapin ang mga struggle, paano
harapin ’yung stress and pressure.
“Kasi lagi niyang sinasabi, ‘naku
Mina, you don’t want to be in my
position,’ kasi siyempre, alam niya
lahat. Doon din ako na-amaze na
‘how do you know all these things?’”
“Hindi pa siya president noon
pero mataas na rin ang posisyon
(sa ABS-CBN), pero alam niya lahat
ng shows ng ABS-CBN, alam niya
lahat, ang galing,” say pa ni Mina.
Say naman ng asawang si Zoren
Legaspi na nasa tabi lang niya, “O
sige, magpraktis ka na, paano mo
iha-handle ’yung gustong mag-quit
ni Kris Aquino na meron pa siyang
kontrata?”
Sagot naman ni Mina, “she
remained friends naman and
we’ve worked together before
so comfortable na kami sa
isa’t isa. May rapport na.”
Posible bang magkakabalikan sila ni Christian ngayong
magkasama na sila sa GMA 7?
“Sorry, no spark at all. I feel
uncomfortable kasi everyone
knows, may girlfriend na siya
ngayon, si Carla, and I don’t
want to appear so mean na
mang-aagaw pa ako. In love
naman ako ngayon, e. Kay
God. I can never thank Him
enough. He really gives me so
much personal joy in my life.”
What happened to her

“Miss Saigon?” We heard
she’s in the top 6 finalists. “I

kami.
“She cannot because she has a
contract,” ulit niya.
“Eh ayaw na nga niya,” pag-iinsist ni Zoren.
“Kakausapin ko siya, I’ll explain
to her. Ganu’n sila dito hon, they
talk to you in a very nice way.”
Sagot ulit ni Zoren, “yeah, but
ang problem, nakapag-press release
na si Kris, papano?”
Depensa naman ni Mina, “yeah,
but you know, when Kris said that,
she was emotional, eh.”
Tanong naman ni Zoren, paano
raw ang mga haters?
“Ay, I don’t care about the haters. We cannot please everybody
talaga. Kahit si Mother Theresa na
sobrang bait, mayroon ding may
ayaw sa kaniya. So, you cannot
please everybody. Noong time na
sinabi ’yun ni Kris, eh, wala siya
sa tamang pag-iisip niya because
she was so emotional,” sabi ulit ni
Mina.
May sibling rivalry…
Lovi at Grace Poe
nagpaplastikan lang?
LOVI
POE
TALIWAS sa unang pangakong susuportahan ang kandidatura ng kanyang kapatid,
hindi pa rin nagpapakita ang
aktres na si Lovi Poe sa mga
kampanya ni Team P-Noy senatorial candidate Mary Grace
Poe-Llamanzares
dahilan
upang pagdudahan kung may
sibling rivalry ang dalawa.
Base sa mga nakalipas na
kampanya ng Team P-Noy,
marami ang nakakapuna sa
hindi pagdalo ni Lovi sa mga
campaign sorties ng kanyang Ate Grace dahilan upang
maghinala ang ilan kung may
namamagitan bang hidwaan
sa pagitan nilang dalawa.
Matatandaan sa isang
presscon ng pelikula ni Lovi
nuong nakaraang taon, buwan
ng Oktubre, sinabi nito na susuportahan niya ang pagtakbo
sa Senado ng dating Movie and
Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) chairman kahit hindi hilingin ng
huli sa una na ikampanya siya.
“Given the chance, I’d campaign for her,” sabi ni Lovi sa
mga miyembro ng entertainment press sa naganap na
presscon ng pelikula nila ng
actor na si Dingdong Dantes

na “Filipinos need someone
